Chapter 2052: Profiteering

"Of course I'm not trying to put you on the U.S. military. Trust me, I know where the boundaries lie. Listen to me, is it okay?" the fat man Furlong shook his head and said, "The about 35oo soldiers deployed by the U.S. military to the front line in Europe this time are from the 3rd Brigade Combat Team of the 4th Mechanized Infantry Division of the U.S. 6th Army, which was originally stationed at Fort Carson, Colorado.

According to our intelligence, in the first half of this year, the United States will deploy three full-strength combat brigades in Eastern Europe and quadruple its defense spending on Europe in 2o17. Launched the so-called Operation Atlantic Resolve. First assembling in Poland and then gradually deploying troops to seven countries, from Estonia to Bulgaria and Romania, is tantamount to creating a new encirclement of Russia from the Baltic Sea to the Black Sea. The command structure of the troops will be deployed in Germany.

We certainly will not sit idly by in the face of such provocations. So we sent a crack team to infiltrate Germany with the intention of getting the latest information on their operation. But the mission failed, and two members of this group were allegedly arrested. We believe that at the moment they are being held at the US military base in Vielsek, Germany.

If you can get people out before they can say anything. I think it will impress the higher-ups, and they will reconsider your conditions. Of course, this assignment is not unpaid, and we will pay the usual retainer fee. ”

"These things you are talking about may be important to Russia, but I am not interested. I only care about concrete actions. That is, it was a rescue operation, and the target was two people. The location is a U.S. military base in Germany. Lin Rui groaned, "Am I right?"

"That's right. The fat man Fulong nodded.

"Why did you choose us to do this?" Lin Rui said as he looked at him.

Because at present, Americans do not know the identities of these two people, and they do not know how much they know. Therefore, it should not have entered the stage of secret interrogation. If we use our people, they are likely to want to cover it up. It is unacceptable for us to escalate the incident. But you're different, and that's where the advantage of a private military company lies. You are free to walk in such a gray area. The fat man Fulong shrugged his shoulders and said.

"You know, Colonel. You are a very cunning person. Lin Rui turned to him.

"Why do you say that?" Fulong wondered.

"Because you know that the U.S. military is also one of our important employers, and if such an operation fails. We will lose the trust of the US side. In other words, if the rescue is successful, everyone will be happy, and if the rescue fails, you have nothing to lose. On the contrary, we will have a bad relationship with the United States, so that we will be forced to sacrifice some of our interests and choose to cooperate with you. Lin Rui smiled, "Am I right?"

Fulong also smiled, "It's just your one-sided opinion." ”

"It's okay, I can notify the company headquarters of this. Lin Rui looked at him and said, "Give me a briefing on your mission, and I will return it to the company's headquarters and let the company decide whether to accept this task." ”

Fulong looked at him and nodded, "Good." If you can do this, then I will do my best to help you get what you need. ”

"In other words, this mission is either a win-win situation or a one-sided win. There is no possibility of losing. Lin Rui looked at him and said. "Is that what you mean? You're a cunning man. ”

Fulong took a few steps, nodded, and said, "Mr. Rick, we are negotiating. And the purpose of all negotiations is only one, that is, to strive for the best interests of both sides on the basis of mutual acceptance. So what I'm doing is understandable, it's up to you.

If the mission is successful, it means that we have a win-win situation. You get a space to exhibit in Russia, and we get a collaborator you can trust. If the mission fails, we will lose two insignificant small characters at most. But if you want to exhibit in Russia, you have to face more restrictions. So, it's up to you. ”

"Okay, give me a day and wait for the results of the company. Lin Rui nodded and said, "Rest for a day, and we'll talk later." Lin Rui got up and returned with Sergei and the others.

Fulong nodded politely and saw them off.

"Colonel, will they accept this task? At such a great risk, if it were me, I would never accept it. Borgica whispered beside Fulong.

"They're outlaws of private military companies, and you're a federal official. The butt determines the head, and in different positions, there will be different considerations. This is destined for you to think differently. What you think they won't accept, maybe they don't see it that way. Fulong turned to look at him.

Borjeka frowned, "Do you think they'll accept it?"

"If they want to gain long-term benefits in Russia, they must accept it, otherwise it means that they have completely abandoned the Russian market. Businessmen are profit-seeking, and private military companies are even more profit-seeking. There is no reason for them to pass up this opportunity. So I think they'll take it. "If they refuse, it means that they are not the type we need, and we can find other companies to work with." ”

Borteka nodded, hesitated, and said, "But what if they succeed?

"If it succeeds, it means that this private military company is worth the money. Their value will be fully affirmed above. In any case, it is also good for us. You have to remember that the biggest benefit of using a private military company is that you can be exempt from liability. So whether we succeed or fail, we are winners. The fat man Fulong said slowly.

"So do you want them to succeed or fail?" said Bordeka with some hesitation.

"I hope they succeed, because if they do, I will be in charge of these private military companies on behalf of the military. Fulong nodded, "This is a very rare opportunity to exhibit. If private military companies are legalized, it may even change our fate. We, like most soldiers, cannot work for the Russian government for the rest of our lives, and private military companies are a good way out.

Russia is a military power, and we have a lot of excellent military talents who leave the army every year and waste their combat skills. There is a lot of equipment that is obsolete and ends up being sold to third world countries at low prices. We have an advantage in this regard. Once a private military company is on the move, the prospects will be very good. The establishment of a branch in Russia by the Black Island Military Company will be an opportunity to bring about change. ”

Borjeka was silent for a moment and nodded, "I see." ”
