The price of weapons transactions has always been unclear. There are many war-torn areas in the world, and there is a huge demand for weapons, especially light weapons and their ammunition. However, except for the five permanent members of the Security Council who can sell these murderous weapons unscrupulously, other small countries can
You can only follow behind and eat scraps. Once it involves the area subject to the UN arms embargo, no matter how big the profit is, you can't do it.
Colin's location is relatively sensitive, close to Iraq and Iran, and the country itself is not peaceful. The government forces can openly purchase weapons from China, but the resistance organizations can only purchase them privately. The CIA does not want to show off, so it leaves the job to Barn.
Sri Lanka did it. The total cost of this batch of arms plus transportation costs was six million, which was actually not much. Anyway, the money was not paid by the CIA, but by Exxon Mobil, so no one cared.
Barnes made a lot of money from it, and also won the favor of his boss, because he learned a lesson and secretly booked a week-long trip to Hawaii for his boss's wife, with first-class travel and five-star hotels throughout, as well as thoughtful and expensive
Of course, Barnes paid for the small gifts.
The boss was very happy and praised Barnes for his ability to do things, his integrity, and his integrity. Take this arms business as an example. Last time, someone ordered the same amount of arms from Eastern Europe, and the final bill cost him 10 million miles.
, in short, Barnes is a good comrade, it would be a pity not to be the supervisor.
Liu Handong also made a lot of money. The cost of this batch of arms was only 500,000 U.S. dollars, but it increased tenfold when it was resold. And it was all clean money, which could be used as he pleased in the account.
With the support of arms, the resistance organizations and government forces started a fierce battle, and the Colin Civil War broke out.
Under the deliberate operation of Barnes, the armed forces of the resistance organization have always maintained a balance point. They can neither be easily eliminated by the government forces nor capture Takikati. The war is endless, and he has endless resources in his hands.
The funds can be spent to disrupt Colin and interfere with the Chinese companies' ability to operate. Even if Barnes's task is half completed, he has been promoted to a higher position. Needless to say, he has not only become a supervisor again, but also gained greater power.
, the Fifth Fleet's carrier-based aircraft, cruise missiles and SEAL special forces can be directly mobilized when necessary.
Not to be outdone, the Chinese provided massive assistance to Said. A batch of arms and weapons arrived at the port to equip government troops. The United States proposed an arms embargo at the United Nations, but China vetoed it. However, considering the practicality, they did not want to completely break away from the Americans.
Face, the arms deal came to an abrupt end.
For the safety of their employees, Chinese-funded enterprises have stopped production and returned to China. The Chinese government has sent special planes to evacuate overseas Chinese. In addition to the docks that are still under construction under heavy protection of government troops, refineries and power plants have stopped working, leaving behind unfinished buildings and equipment.
, over time, it became devastated and looked like ruins.
China has requested the United Nations to send peacekeeping troops to Colin.
For a time, the storm surged and heroes emerged in large numbers.
Colin is a small place. The resistance forces rely on the scorched earth of Iraq as their rear area, and cross the border to attack government forces from time to time. Now their weapons and equipment have reached a new level, equipped with rocket launchers, mortars, and 107mm rockets.
There are dozens of Toyota pickup trucks, and they are an armed force that cannot be underestimated.
The weapons of the resistance organization are all made from North Korea and are specially made without any factory or production country markings. The supplier is a metal supplies import and export company registered in Busan, South Korea. In fact, the manipulator behind the scenes is Liu Handong.
He switched from being a drug trafficker to selling arms, and it was easy for him. The money in his Swiss bank account continued to increase, and his confidence was much stronger than before.
Mr. Barnes is stationed in Colin all year round. He is the English teacher of Ahmed, the spiritual leader of the resistance organization. In fact, he calls himself the "Barnes of Arabia". Liu Handong feels ashamed because he also considered himself an Arab at the beginning.
Liu Handong did not expect that he would return to his original form after a few months.
As the boss behind the resistance organization, Barnes controls a huge amount of funds. Arms procurement is just one of them, as well as a large amount of consulting fees, military salaries, commissions for recruiting mercenaries and instructors, and special expenditures for intelligence. In the past, he
He couldn't transfer so much money with Dingwan, but after talking with Liu Handong, he suddenly understood and understood that everything in the world is just a business, so what if the regime changes, everyone is a passerby of history, and the important thing is the past.
Good moment.
In southern Iraq, in the resistance organization's tent, Barnes was strategizing over the map when Liu Handong opened the door curtain and came in.
"You came just in time." Barnes put down the magnifying glass. In fact, computers are used to direct operations now. Playing maps is just a hobby for him. "The mercenary I sent to perform the mission was killed with a sniper rifle.
The one who was killed was at a distance of more than a thousand meters. Colin did not have such a powerful sniper. The Chinese should have sent mercenaries."
"Then you hire a retired sniper from the Rangers, and let them fight against each other." Liu Handong said.
"Intelligence, I need information. If you know them, you can send someone to investigate." Barnes said, "I will pay you the intelligence fee. The old rule is that the invoice will be increased by 20%."
"I'm just a businessman. I won't participate in combat, and I won't do anything if I'm paid." Liu Handong refused without hesitation. Seeing his firm attitude, Barnes didn't force it.
After chatting for a while, Liu Handong walked out of the tent and looked up at the weather. The yellow sand was long and the sun was shining brightly.
Little did he know that the Rainbow 5 surveillance and attack drone high in the sky had already aimed at him.
At the Takikati Port, at the military contractor command post, the commanders stared at the Asians on the screen and remained silent for a long time.
"Boss, give the order, one missile can wipe them out." the weapons operator suggested.
The Rainbow 5 integrated surveillance and attack drone is an unmanned aerial vehicle developed by China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation. It can undertake battlefield reconnaissance missions and carry precision-guided weapons. It can carry out devastating strikes on fixed targets and low-speed moving targets on the ground. As long as the operator
With the move of a finger, the missile can blow the tents and people on the ground into pieces.
"Evacuate." The commander gave the order expressionlessly.
…
Thousands of miles away in China, in Omi City, Jiangdong Province, Ma Ling's son is one year old. It's a fun time for babbling, but she has no time to take care of her son. The bus company has been restructured and a large number of employees have been laid off.
She resigned and re-signed the contract as a younger one. When Ma Ling was given a hard time by her boss, who wanted to transfer her to a suburban route, she simply quit her job. She became a sister and drove a taxi with a big name like Huaijiang Taxi Company.
There is no way to enter the company, so we can only join Qingshi Taxi Company and drive an electric taxi.
Driving a taxi is quite hard. Ma Ling works day and night in order to earn money for milk powder for her children and to save pension money for herself. Originally, her family was not in such difficulty, but something unexpected happened and Wang Yulan was diagnosed with breast cancer.
Cancer, medication and chemotherapy cost a lot of money. Ma Guoqing had to buy groceries, cook, and accompany her in the hospital. She also had to take care of her young grandson. In just one month, her hair turned completely white.
Fortunately, the child's grandmother has been helping to take care of him in Omi, which can alleviate a lot of pressure. But misfortunes never come singly. Liu Xiaoyong, who is already 100 years old, suffered a cerebral infarction and became bedridden. He was in urgent need of care. Shui Qin had to return to Omi to join He Jian.
Serving the old man, the old man was still chanting Dongdong's name while he was in a coma. Shuiqin couldn't stop crying after hearing this.
Liu Handong didn't know these things. He was transferring back to South Korea at Dubai Airport. When he was reading a newspaper in the VIP waiting room, a female passenger suddenly came in. It was Zheng Jiayi who had been away for a long time.
Zheng Jiayi didn't recognize Liu Handong, so she sat next to him and said hello naturally.
Liu Handong became excited. It was not the excitement of meeting an old friend in a foreign country, but the secretion of adrenaline in the state of war. He did not believe that such a coincidence could happen in the world, so he stood up and left. People were coming and going in the airport. He looked around, but there was no trace of him.
If you feel murderous, maybe you are too sensitive.
The bodyguard came up and asked what happened. Liu Handong never walked alone now, and he always took four people with him wherever he went.
"Nothing." Liu Handong hesitated for a moment, then went back to the VIP room, still sitting in his old seat.
"Where are you going?" Zheng Jiayi asked him with a sweet smile.
"Seoul." Liu Handong also answered in English.
"Oh, I went to Beijing. You look very much like a friend of mine. You have similar eyes and a similar voice, but you are more handsome than him." Zheng Jiayi's style remained the same, and his few words caused ripples in Liu Handong's heart.
"Really, then where is your friend now?" Liu Handong asked. He had thought clearly that if someone wanted to catch him, he would not use the daughter of a deputy national leader as bait. This was a truly beautiful encounter.
"He is dead." Zheng Jiayi said sadly, "Because of an accident, everyone actually misunderstood him. He is innocent."
"Maybe he's not dead." Liu Handong looked at Zheng Jiayi with bright eyes.
"Oh, God." Zheng Jiayi lightly covered her mouth, looking incredulous.
"That year at my grandma's house, he picked up a homeless man." Zheng Jiayi said, this time in Chinese.
"The homeless man is a Korean. He lives in a garage and uses an alcohol stove to cook food. Your grandma is in Building 12 of the Provincial Party Committee Family Courtyard on Fuqian Street. You drive a friend's black Land Rover." Liu Handong received the message.
Zheng Jiayi stared at him for a few seconds, then swooped over and put her arms around Liu Handong's neck, and the two hugged tightly.
The passengers in the VIP room turned a blind eye. Dubai is a city where people come and go, and countless stories happen every day.
"I'm not going to Beijing anymore, what about you?" Zheng Jiayi said in Liu Handong's ear.
"I won't go to Seoul either." Liu Handong responded, "Go to the hotel!"
The two of them left the VIP room and were greeted by bodyguards. Liu Handong said that you should go first as planned and I will arrive tomorrow. What else did the bodyguard want to say? He looked at Zheng Jiayi, smiled knowingly, and turned around to leave.
Liu Handong helped Zheng Jiayi carry his luggage, went out to take a taxi, and went straight to Jumeirah Sailing Hotel.
An inconspicuous Mercedes-Benz station wagon followed them from a distance.
