Chapter 356: An irretrievable defeat
Anderson sat on the sofa dejectedly, his face full of incredulity, and his eyes were even more hesitant, he knew very well how important Nasrallah's nail was to drive into Iran's interior, and the previous few similar operations were not only very smooth, but also had the support of Iran's high-level, but this time he was secretly executed by Iran.
In this way, the fruits of his hard work will be wasted, and there may be a huge rift in the intimacy with Miller and the International Arms Federation behind him, just like the cold and suspicious gaze cast by Miller at the moment, which can make Anderson feel extreme distrust.
However, what can he say now, all the specific contacts with Nasrallah are done by him Anderson, whether it is leaking or accidentally exposed, he Anderson can't get out of it, and at the same time, he completely destroys his perfect image of rigor, efficiency, and meticulousness that he prides himself on, and in the face of such consequences, Anderson, who has a strong sense of self-esteem, simply can't accept it.
Therefore, after a short period of confusion, the original incredible gaze in Anderson's azure eyes also returned to his previous shrewd look, and he also changed his previous humility and cowardice, and stared at Miller in front of him, he knew that if he didn't fight for himself again, he Anderson would inevitably plummet in the eyes of the International Arms Federation, and at that time, not to mention the future stable prime minister's throne, even the current official position of senior adviser to the British government would be in jeopardy.
Now that he has reached this juncture, he no longer has to pretend to be humble, but from the inside out, he reveals the calmness, courage and hidden ruthlessness of a former MI6 agent, after all, in his opinion, although Nasrallah's death is surprising, it is nothing, because in Iran, there is a lot of grabbing like Nasrallah, since there is one less, it would be good to find another one, anyway, as long as the goal is achieved. He didn't care if the other party was Nasrallah or not:
"Mr. Miller, please calm down, since Nasrallah is dead, is there nothing we can do?"
"Method?" With Miller's sophistication and sophistication, how could he not see what Anderson was thinking at this time, and sneered disdainfully:
"Hmph, then you have to figure out how to sabotage the new arms sales agreement between China and Iran!"
"China and Iran have reached another deal?" Anderson was stunned when he heard the news. Then he exclaimed: "Just a few days ago, I received reliable news from the Iranian side that the Iranian government has once again terminated arms sales negotiations with China.
Seeing Anderson, who was almost out of shape, Miller didn't bother to take a look, anyway, he was found in order to be a suitable chess piece, and when Miller heard that the plan failed, he had already made up his mind to ruthlessly abandon this chess piece, lest it fall into his hands and become a hot potato with nowhere to place.
Of course, he also knew that Anderson would not admit defeat and give up so easily, but it didn't matter, Miller, as the deputy director of the Sino-British Intelligence Bureau, had a way to make him obedient. It is not impossible for this former MI6 agent to disappear from the world without a trace.
It's just that before this, Miller's demeanor out of Western chivalry would still let Anderson know what was going on, so that he could have the so-called right to plead, which is also Miller's consistent style of dealing with similar things, although it seems a little redundant to outsiders, but Miller is just happy to do it, to put it bluntly, he enjoys the wonderful process of controlling life and death.
The man in black standing on the side was Miller's cronies, so he naturally knew the boss's fetishes, so he stepped forward after seeing Miller's signature playful smile on his face. Anderson said undoubtedly to the opposite side:
"The accurate information sent by our agents embedded in Tehran along with this cable has confirmed that China and Iran reached an arms sales deal worth up to $300 million the day before yesterday. Not only that, but the first batch of weapons and equipment has already been loaded onto the ship."
"Loading and shipping?" Before the man in black could finish speaking, Anderson interrupted his words, Anderson couldn't believe his own ears, but he knew that he didn't hear correctly, but he didn't expect the Chinese to be so fast, and they began to fulfill the contract in two days. Could it be that when they thought of this, Anderson's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said anxiously to Miller:
"Mr. Miller, the Chinese are preparing to cook raw rice sold to Iran and reach a fait accompli. We must not allow them to succeed in the agreement reached the day before yesterday, and it has not been long since the Chinese ships were supposed to leave the port in just three days, three days, three days.
We also have the opportunity to send the Navy to the powerful US Navy, and our British Navy can also participate in the operation to intercept it on the high seas close to Iran, on the grounds that it is a violation of UN resolutions, and then China will be absolutely dumb and unable to say what it is, let alone that China's navy is so weak."
Anderson became more and more energetic, and finally his eyebrows fluttered, he served as an officer in the British Royal Navy, and he was very familiar with the navy, similar to maritime interception, and the geography, hydrology and weather conditions of the Persian Gulf, the Gulf of Aden and the Red Sea were not disclosed.
It didn't take long for a detailed plan to intercept and deal with the Chinese ships coming out, and Anderson was secretly glad that he had finally found a way to save the fire, but it was just a bit of a big fuss, but it didn't matter anymore, now it just had to achieve the goal.
However, Anderson was smug that he had come up with such a perfect plan in a short period of time, but Miller, who was sitting opposite him, still looked at him coldly, and there was a hint of playfulness and sarcasm in his eyes in addition to sharpness, that kind of look Anderson was very familiar, because he knew that when people watched a clown show or burlesque performance, it was a look like this, but he was extremely unfamiliar, because Anderson had never been in such a situation since he was born, so Anderson's high-pitched voice gradually fell, and at the same time, the excited look also fell silent.
Miller saw Anderson stop talking, the cold smile on his face became more intense, yes, he just liked the feeling that Anderson's self-justification was like a burlesque at this time, since he couldn't see the big Chinese joke he was looking forward to, looking at Anderson's performance in front of him was also a comfort, not to mention that his going and staying was only between his own thoughts, and such a happy feeling was something that ordinary people could not experience, so when Anderson stopped talking, Miller couldn't help but have a hint of playfulness in his heart, and asked a rhetorical question that seemed to be serious:
"And what if China is using North Korean ships?"
If Anderson saw Miller's appearance in normal times, he would probably be attentive, but at this time, he had already been carried away by the unattainable fantasy of the future prime minister, and in order to keep this powerful backer, he couldn't care so much, and was eager to sell the plan he came up with in his wit, so he responded without thinking:
"North Korea? North Korean ships can still intercept it"
But as soon as Anderson's words came out, he realized his mistake, and the eyes cast by Miller and the man in black in the room also confirmed his thoughts, but what made him unbearable was that the eyes cast by Miller and the two were not ordinary ridicule and ridicule, but the kind of look that could not be described in words when watching a fool's performance, which made Anderson unbearable, and an inexplicable anger was engraved on his white face in an instant:
"Mr. Miller, it is very unfriendly for you to insult a gentleman like this!" Anderson's grim face flashed with a hint of determination, and his tone became stiff, and the undisguised threat made him feel like he was in a ruin, but this feeling was ridiculously childish in Miller's eyes:
"Gentleman, you want to intercept North Korean ships, I think only a so-called gentleman like you can think of it!" said Miller suddenly stood up, his eyebrows rose suddenly, and the conversation changed sharply, and he said sharply at Anderson:
"It's a shame that you've been in MI6 for so long, don't you know the consequences of stopping North Korean ships? When the time comes, the red dictatorship in North Korea will inevitably take this opportunity to turn the 38th parallel into a sea of fire, and do you Britain still want to fight a Korean War with heavy losses? You must know that it is not to make money, but to exchange your life for senseless sacrifices.
Neither the U.S. government nor the International Arms Federation would do such a stupid thing. China's move is indeed unexpected, which in turn shows that your Anderson ability is not as strong as we estimated before, but in any case, you can be regarded as doing your best, just like Brown, we can't treat you badly no matter what!"
"Do you want to be your prisoner like Brown?" Anderson sneered, "You have to be clear about one thing, Mr. Miller, I'm not Brown!"
"Oh, is it?" Miller's smile was even darker than Anderson's, "Are you trying to threaten me with a privately engraved tape?"
"How do you know?" Anderson couldn't help but look at Miller in shock, and Miller smiled indifferently: "They are all from being secret agents, what tricks do you have, how can I not know!"
"I'll fight with you!" But the last hole card was completely overturned, Anderson knew that he was a complete failure this time, in the face of such an irreparable defeat, he could only go out and sacrifice his life, otherwise he would become a caged bird like Brown, in that case, his dream, his hope, his life of high hopes will be completely played, but before he moved, he only felt a violent shock from the back of his head, and when he leaned down at the moment, he vaguely saw that the man in black appeared behind him at some point, and he could only scold angrily at this time:
"Fuck!" plunges into endless darkness (to be continued......
