The Americans said it was Soryu who did it. Of course, everyone thought it was Soryu who did it, and they all knew it was Soryu. But they didn’t expect that the terrorist organization admitted that it was them. As soon as Al Jazeera announced the news, the whole world
It will boil immediately.
Ye Lun and Wang Daoming looked at this scene in disbelief. They were a little restless in the office. They didn't know what to say for a while. Then Canglong changed the channel again, which was the morning news of N in the United States and BBC in the United Kingdom. They reported almost
It's the same content, but the host and reporting methods are different.
But what they have in common is that they are worried about the security situation after the U.S. military returns to Iraq. Now it is estimated that the President of the United States knows the news and is convening cabinet members to discuss how to respond.
"Look, it's not my fault, it's the terrorist organization's fault. I'm innocent." Canglong calmly turned off the TV, and Ye Lun had nothing to say.
At this moment, he felt that he had underestimated this young man. In such a short period of time, he actually figured out a way to deal with it, and also made the terrorist organization admit it. How much ability does it take to do this? But now he has
It's hard to get out of riding a tiger. If he had known Cang Long was such a thoughtful person from the beginning, he probably wouldn't have acted like this, but would have tried his best to assist him.
It's just that Canglong is so young, Ye Lun really can't believe his ability, and now it's too late to apologize. Obviously Canglong doesn't need to apologize: "I once gave you a chance, but you didn't seize it. Instead, you all
And if you go against me again and again, Longteng International does not need such people, even if my mother thinks you are all capable."
Canglong's words have been very straightforward. Ye Lun and Wang Daoming have left the branch. Basically, the siege by the US military has become a decoration. As soon as daybreak, if the Americans still stay here to surround the branch, it will cause more trouble.
Big news, by then there may be overwhelming rumors all over the world about a conflict between China and the United States.
When Petraeus got the news, his face was extremely ugly, and he called Colonel Mike to question him. Colonel Mike said that the news had definitely been blocked. Petraeus naturally understood that all this was caused by Canglong. At this time, he knew that he should use ordinary methods.
There is no way to deal with Canglong.
As for assassination? He is the number one killer in the world. Who in this world dares to assassinate him?
But Petraeus was unwilling to evacuate the troops because he knew very well that Thomson must be hiding in the Longteng International branch. This was really a dilemma for him.
Soon, an order from the Ministry of National Defense came down, asking him to immediately evacuate the troops from Zubair and return to the base to avoid causing more trouble. Moreover, the president personally ordered it.
"This guy must think that we don't dare to go in!" Petraeus was absolutely furious. "Aren't you using the media to expose us? Then I will also use the power of the media to expose you. There is an old saying in China, to catch a thief, you must use the dirt.
, when I find Thomson under the gaze of the media, I will see how you explain it then!"
So, while Petraeus was perfunctory with the Ministry of National Defense, he gave Colonel Mike an order not to evacuate, and notified reporters from major media to go in and search together.
At the same time, Petraeus revealed the news to reporters from major media outlets in the world in Baghdad, and personally dispatched military planes to take them to Zubair.
"Strange, why don't the Americans withdraw?" At around nine o'clock in the morning, there were already a lot of people watching outside, including a small number of foreigners and a majority of locals.
"Look, reporters are here too. What do the Americans want to do?" Xiami looked through the scope as an interview vehicle drove over, with a huge abbreviation "n" on it.
"Hey, are the Americans trying to embarrass themselves? Even reporters from the BBC and Al Jazeera are here." Bai Wuchang looked surprised. At this time, they really couldn't imagine why the Americans were staying here to besiege them if they didn't withdraw.
After all, a terrorist organization had just admitted that they had attacked the US military. The US military surrounded the Chinese Petroleum Company early in the morning. This is really weird.
Soryu sat in his office and watched the TV. The screen was showing a live broadcast from Al Jazeera. From what the reporter reported, Soryu learned what the Americans wanted to do.
Then he picked up the radio and ordered the snow leopards: "Hide your weapons. Don't panic when the Americans rush in."
"Why?" Snow Leopard asked strangely.
"Wouldn't it be very satisfying to let the whole world see Americans being embarrassed?" Canglong smiled and turned off the radio.
Because when an Al Jazeera reporter interviewed the US military commander outside, the US military commander said that the terrorists who attacked the US military were hiding in this building, so they surrounded the building, but because it was a Chinese company, they never attacked.
But they have negotiated with the Chinese Embassy, and the Embassy has approved their actions, but do not harm the Chinese employees inside.
Under the careful planning of the American commander, the reporters followed the US military and began to storm the building. However, they discovered from the beginning that they did not encounter any attacks. When they entered the building, they only found people who were about to faint from being choked by smoke bombs.
Chinese employees, why do we say they are all employees, is because they all wear suits and ties, and no one holds a weapon.
The US military was very surprised. After checking one by one, they found that although some people were not right, no weapons were found. However, this was not their first target, so after getting them out, they began to search the entire building thoroughly for two hours.
During the search, the U.S. military found nothing.
The TV reporters immediately turned their attention from the US military's search to the Chinese employees. They were interviewed in fluent English and told reporters that the US military had surrounded the place in the middle of the night, which delayed a lot of their work.
They also received news from the oil field that the US military had captured many of their oil workers and imprisoned them in the base.
These words were clearly conveyed to the ears of the world. When Petraeus saw this report in the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad, his face immediately turned pale. He slapped himself in the face without saying anything, and completely
Active became passive.
Media around the world began to condemn the actions of the US military. Most said that the US military returned to Iraq and captured Chinese oil workers in order to obtain formal bids from China to exploit Iraqi oil.
The n report was even more direct. It said that the US military in Iraq did not arrest the real culprit, but wasted time on offending the Chinese. This is simply stupid behavior. It also strongly accused Petraeus, the top commander of the US military in Iraq.
It's this stupid guy.
As for the BBC report, it became more peaceful, saying that the top priority of the US military was to rescue Thomson, and apologized to China for the misunderstanding caused by this matter.
After such reports, anti-American sentiment in Basra increased. Countless Shia and Sunni people came to demonstrate in front of the U.S. Consulate in Basra Province, demanding that U.S. troops get out of Iraq. Iraq is the Iraqis’ own Iraq, and Americans should stay here.
It will only bring terrorist attacks and war.
Of course, such demonstrations were suppressed by local military police and gradually subsided.
At the same time, the White House held a press conference. The spokesman said that he hoped that China would understand the matter and release the Chinese workers mistakenly arrested by the US military as soon as possible.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs also responded, hoping that the United States would release Chinese workers as soon as possible and ensure their safety.
After such a fuss, the Americans could not threaten Canglong by seizing the Chinese oil workers, because Canglong made a detailed list and gave it to reporters from major media in the world. Before the US military released them, if they had any damage,
It means they were mistreated in the US military base.
In the US military base, Colonel Mike is now in a dilemma. They are unwilling to let these Chinese workers go. If they don't let them go, the whole world will be watching, and even the White House said it was a misunderstanding. What reason do they have to detain them?
?
At this time, Petraeus was even more distressed. The Department of Defense had already questioned his leadership and asked him to rush back to Washington to face a military court trial because he indirectly ignored the orders of the Department of Defense and carried out the follow-up attack on his own.
Face action.
So, when he boarded the plane to Washington, Petraeus didn't understand why they didn't find Thomson. Had Soryu really moved? Maybe it was true, maybe not, but what he should be thinking about was no longer there.
It's the Iraqi side, it's the military court's investigation.
In Beijing, at the headquarters of the General Intelligence Agency, a routine intelligence meeting was underway. The three giants of the intelligence community gathered together. The deputy director and chief of staff of the General Intelligence Agency were also present.
"Old Long, your son has done a good job." The senior leader looked at the documents and reports in his hands with a smile on his face.
Long Yunshan was silent, but Li Ruomo was very happy, because Canglong did not disappoint them. Now the Americans in Iraq are already very anxious. By the time they re-appoint the commander and ambassador of the US military in Iraq, Canglong may have completed the layout.
"This incident does not mean anything. Young people are so reckless. If we are unlucky, we will be the ones who fall into the passive position." Long Yunshan said, "This is walking a tightrope on a mountain of swords. If you fall, you will be broken into pieces."
part!"
These words made Li Ruomo dissatisfied: "Luck is also a kind of strength, not to mention he did very well and was very successful!"
"He is betting on China's entire energy crisis." Long Yunshan said coldly, "If he is really allowed to hold a high position, wouldn't he be betting on the fate of the entire China? Fortunately, he is only the acting president now.
, so we should be happy!”
"I have ability and luck, but young people do things like this. Old Long doesn't need to care so much." He Jun suddenly said, "He is your son, so don't be too harsh on the younger generation."
"Yes, Lao Long, it's pretty good to have such an achievement. Although I'm not sure what I mean, it's fine as long as I keep practicing." The big leader also spoke. If Li Ruomo really wanted to speak, this intelligence meeting would be difficult.
The last two people had to quarrel again, "One year has just passed, let him work hard, and the General Intelligence Agency can also contribute appropriately."
After the meeting, Chen Yingyang, deputy director of the General Intelligence Bureau, suddenly stopped Li Ruomo and said, "Xiao Mo."
"Uncle Chen!" Li Ruomo turned around and nodded politely, "Is something wrong?"
"I can't talk to you if I have nothing to do?" Chen Yingyang said with a smile, "Does the Iraqi side need our help?"
"Didn't Director Long give the order to come in without any interference?" Li Ruomo asked strangely.
"The big leaders have expressed their opinions, so what can Lao Long do?" Chen Yingyang said with a smile, "If you need anything, just tell me, that little guy's achievements are obvious to all, and we should give him our full support.
"
"Thank you, Uncle Chen." Li Ruomo nodded, "If there is nothing else, I will leave first."
Chen Yingyang nodded: "Go, go, remember what Uncle Chen said, and tell me if you need anything. After all, the General Intelligence Bureau's energy in Iraq is still greater than that of your 15th Bureau."
