Chapter 278: Not an ordinary businessman
Almost at the moment when Zhou Ming shouted out the action, Zhou Ming and the members of the desert team who came in with him immediately took action, they pulled the dagger out of their cuffs like a trick, and then stabbed it into the heart of the military police who were watching next to them.
In less than two seconds, all six Iraqi military and police guards fell to the ground, their chests blood-red.
Zhang Lin took out the key from an officer and handed it to Zhou Ming, Zhou Ming personally helped Majid open the cell door, Majid walked out of the cell, and he was shocked when he saw the military police guard lying on the ground outside.
Although he had already guessed that Zhou Ming would inevitably rob the prison without Salm's order, he still couldn't help but be shocked when he really saw it, you must know that these military policemen were the most elite soldiers in Salm's guards! It had only been a few seconds since the operation had just begun, and all of these Iraqi elite soldiers had been dealt with, and they couldn't even scream, which was too exaggerated.
But in fact, this is not surprising, after all, Zhang Lin and they are all elite soldiers who are one in a million, plus they suffered losses at the hands of the US CIA agents not long ago, and now they are all eager to prove themselves, and they are high-spirited, and it is not surprising that they quickly killed these military police, but it is just that Majid, the leading figure in Iraq, subjectively cannot accept it.
Zhou Ming smiled at this and explained to him: "If you don't make a little preparation, I don't think I can take you out, right?"
"Yes, but it's not enough to just get me out of my cell, we have to get out of here. Majid said.
Zhou Ming nodded and said of course, and then gave an order to Zhang Lin, Zhang Lin nodded very simply, and then shouted at the door, and a few minutes later, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door, and seven military police guards hurried in, and these military police were stunned when they saw Majid standing outside the prison. At this time, Zhang Lin and his desert team, who were lying in ambush on the side, immediately got up and flew over, covered their mouths and cut their throats, and killed these military and police guards in one go.
Majid was already stunned on the side: "I can't help but say that these soldiers you brought are too powerful, and this method of taking the initiative to shout and attract the military and police guards to come over and kill them is really amazing!"
Therefore, many times habitual thinking can kill people, and the sudden shouting is sometimes not necessarily an accident, but also a trap. But this is also because this is a special prison, if there are tens of thousands of military police here, hundreds of them at a time, we will not dare to make a second time, no matter how powerful we are. Zhou Ming joked.
Zhou Ming then left the cell with Majid, but when they ran out of the underground cell, they saw Salm waiting there with a team of military guards.
Seeing Zhou Ming and Majid come out, Salm looked loveless and said: "Majid, my good brother, you really betrayed me and colluded with these Huaxia people, that's why you were so supportive of their suggestion at the beginning, but you probably didn't expect that from the moment I locked you up here, I was preparing for this moment, outside the cell where you were held, I installed a special monitoring probe, as long as anything happened, I could know it as soon as it happened." β
Majid immediately explained in a panic: "President, please listen to my explanation, things are not what you think, Mr. Zhou Ming and I just hope to convince you that I am your cousin, how could I betray you?"
But Salm ignored Majid's explanation, he continued: "I'll just say why you have to fight the Americans to the end, it turns out that you and these Chinese people have already discussed, I am really sad, I don't understand what benefits these Chinese people have given you!"
In the end, Salm gave a ruthless order: "Arrest them all and put them on death row!"
With Salm's order, but suddenly a gunshot rang out, Salm's secretary fell to the ground, and all Salm's military and police guards were immediately panicked, they subconsciously squatted down, looked up, and wanted to see where the sniper came from.
In fact, this sniper was arranged by Zhang Lin, just in case, of course, this kind of special prison is held by very special political prisoners, and it is impossible for Zhou Ming to bring the entire desert team in, so he must leave some outside.
However, the people who were left behind obviously completed the task well, because when he secretly killed Salm's secretary and caused a panic, and Zhang Lin and his desert team took advantage of this time to launch a surprise attack on Salm, Salm's military guards were looking for the sniper who was hiding in the dark at this time, and they never expected that Zhang Lin would choose this time to do it.
Therefore, under the hasty defense of these military guards, Salm was captured by Zhang Lin in just a few seconds, and Zhang Lin held a blue dagger against Salm's neck in his backhand and said loudly: "Don't move!"
The president was captured, and the rest of the military guards stood there blankly, and some subconsciously dropped their guns.
At this time, Zhou Ming walked leisurely to Salm and asked him: "Dear Mr. President Salm, I think you must be willing to talk to us now, right?"
Salm undoubtedly felt very humiliated by this question, but now that the situation is stronger than people, he can only be at the mercy of Zhou Ming, and then he was taken back to the presidential palace by Zhou Ming. And at this time, the role of Majid, the number two man, was manifested, and with his orders, the military guard did not follow, and everything was normal in the presidential palace.
Zhou Ming and Majid took Salm back to the presidential palace, and Salm lowered his head all the way, as if he had accepted his fate, but when they arrived in the conference room of the presidential palace and closed the door, Salm suddenly said: "Mr. Zhou Ming, what kind of conditions my brother has given you, I can offer double his conditions." β
Salm's sudden opening surprised Zhou Ming, and Zhou Ming said to him meaningfully: "Yes? I can't help but say that Mr. President Salm, you are quite capable of making empty checks, but it's a pity, if I had thought about it ten minutes ago, but now...... Do you think you still have the conditions to negotiate?"
"Of course there is!" Salm said firmly, "Majid, he is only the Minister of the Interior and Defense, but I am the President of Iraq, I control the whole country, whatever you want, money, treasures or women, I can provide you with it, even the autonomy of the Kurds in the north!"
Listening to Salm's words, Majid's eyes widened, and he said with an incredulous expression: "Salm, I can't imagine that you actually want to sell the soul of the Hussein family and even Iraq for your own safety?"
For Majid, Salm unceremoniously pushed back: "Majid, you have no right to accuse me of betraying your family and country earlier than me!"
Zhou Ming ended the accusation between the Salm and Majid brothers, and Zhou Ming said to them: "I have no interest in your betrayal and the interests of the Iraqi state, all I care about is which of you has the determination to resist the Americans, I'm sorry, Mr. Salm, you disappointed me very much on this point, I went to Sumor to find an alliance with the Kurds, and after only a few days, you announced your surrender to the world?"
Zhou Ming's words hit Salm's heart word by word, making him tremble, he wanted to explain something, but he couldn't say a word under Zhou Ming's gaze.
Looking at him like this, Zhou Ming then said to him: "What? Do you want to tell me that you don't really want to surrender, but just want to use surrender to delay the enemy's attack, in fact, you also fired Scud missiles at Saudi Arabia, Israel and other Gulf countries indiscriminately today, in order to declare that you still have a very strong counterattack force, right?"
Salm nodded subconsciously, but Zhou Ming spat him and said, "I just want to say that you are really stupid!"
"First of all, the reason why the Iraqi army is still resisting now is because Iraq has not surrendered, and they must fight to the death as soldiers, but now that you have chosen to surrender, then what scruples do they have?" Zhou Ming continued, "In addition, you think that your act of launching Scud missiles is a declaration of your strength, but in my opinion, this is the opposite, you are a kind of madness when you are helpless." β
"It is precisely for this reason that your behavior will not help the situation at all, except for causing some headaches to the United States and other Gulf countries, but will attract a greater counterattack, and it can be said that the situation has been corrupted by you to the point that it cannot be worse!"
Zhou Ming said with a little hatred of iron and steel, but then he calmed down and said: "But the current situation in Iraq really needs to be maintained by you, the president, otherwise the country will collapse first." β
Originally, Zhou Ming's first half of the words made Salm already give up, but hearing Zhou Ming's later turn, he rekindled his hope, he nodded desperately and said to Zhou Ming: "That's right, now Iraq still needs me to preside over the overall situation, without me, many sectarian and ethnic problems in the country will be very serious and exposed, and the situation will become more complicated and out of control at that time!"
"Rest easy, Mr. President. Zhou Ming then said to him, "Although Iraq is now inseparable from you for the time being, it does not mean that you can still be the full president of this country." β
For Zhou Ming's words, Salm was stunned at first, a little confused, but then he became frightened, obviously thinking of something very bad.
"Dear Mr. Majid, as Iraq's Minister of the Interior and Defense, and also an important figure in the Hussein family, I think that when Salm has problems with his physical or mental condition and is unable to exercise his powers, you, as the number two person in the country, have the right to exercise all the powers of the president on behalf of Salm, right?" Zhou Ming asked.
Faced with this question, Majid first turned his head to look at Salm, and then nodded with a sigh.
Looking at Zhou Ming and Majid's statement, Salm immediately jumped up, pointed at them and scolded: "Are you trying to set me up? You thieves, I will definitely shoot you, I promise!"
Zhou Ming asked Majid about this: "If you can't control him well, I'm afraid you won't be able to exercise his power." β
Majid nodded and said: "Of course I have a way, but if you are still worried, Mr. Zhou Ming, you can also send someone to watch him at the presidential palace, for me personally, I prefer you to choose this answer." β
"Of course I chose it that way. After Zhou Ming finished speaking, he asked Zhang Lin to leave two members of the desert team down, and their task was to watch Salm specifically and not give him a chance to do anything, and then took Salm away.
Seeing Salm's departure, Majid suddenly said to Zhou Ming: "With all due respect, Mr. Zhou Ming, are you really just a businessman? Although you keep saying that you are, I feel that you are very different, after all, no businessman would be willing to be involved in a coup d'Γ©tat in another country." β
"You know what? You weren't the first to ask me this question today, Acting President Majid. β
As he spoke, Zhou Ming remembered the proud Princess Kud who was always hidden under the veil, and Zhou Ming continued: "Because of the different identities, the answers I give are naturally different, President Majid, all I can tell you is that I am indeed still a businessman, but I am not an ordinary businessman, because I was not involved in the current coup d'Γ©tat, but I personally provoked it. β
"In addition, maybe ordinary businessmen sell goods to recover money, but for me, whether it is a power war, you and I have colorful banknotes in our hands, but as long as it can bring me benefits, I will do it!" Zhou Ming said, "I don't know if you are satisfied with this answer?"
Majid didn't answer immediately, but gasped.
