Chapter 148: Mercenaries

Seriously, Jiang Chen doesn't care about this ghost place in Ukraine at all. He just wants to buy a few capable veterans, train a mercenary army loyal to him, and complete his "island capture plan". As a result, the critical moment was tricked by Roberts's idiot intelligence, and Makanov's hidden identity complicated the situation.

Because of the brain-opening KGB agents, as well as the-for-tat Villy agents, he was passively involved in this undercurrent.

Thankfully, these troubles have been solved.

Whatever the conspiracy of that Willy is, just let the KGB bother.

Walking side by side with Makanov at the station of the 92nd Mechanized Infantry Brigade, the two chatted and laughed.

Nick followed the two, and since Makanov's English was good, he didn't need him to act as an interpreter, so he walked silently as usual. As for Aisha, she was still arranged by Jiang Chen in the distance, just in case.

Although it is not in the most dangerous area, it is still considered a front line, and the conditions here are naturally quite difficult. Soldiers usually slept next to the mounds of the trenches, used the wooden boxes where ammunition were stored as tables, and sat around eating cold cans and munching on black bread.

Seeing these soldiers eating, drinking, and Lazar, they were simply inferior to the survivors in the fish bone base, Jiang Chen couldn't help but have the illusion that he was simply too benevolent.

"We have a lot of good guys in the 92nd Mechanized Infantry Brigade, if you look at any of them, tell me, and I will communicate with him. Of course, as long as the brain is not stupid, it should not refuse. Makanov laughed.

Seeing that the general rarely went to the front line to "check the post", those listless soldiers were more or less relevant, and when they saw him coming over, they gave a military salute.

Looking at the appearance of these soldiers, Jiang Chen was very skeptical that they could really resist the offensive of the civilian armed forces. But despite thinking so, there was nothing on his face.

"Oh, if I take away the trump card in your army or something, won't you feel distressed?" Jiang Chen said half-jokingly.

This man with a hooked nose has very sharp eyes, a shallow scar on the side of his face, and his figure looks very capable. Just by looking at it, Jiang Chen really couldn't connect him with the "corrupt and official" who embezzled state assets.

I heard that he is still a confidant of the president of the new government.

"What's so distressing?" Makanov spread his hands. He smiled, "What if I have another hundred guys who can fight, and I can beat those 'volunteers' from Russia? The victory or loss of the war is not something we can control at all." Don't talk about the, talk about the realistic. I've been owed my own salary for months. If I don't sell equipment, how can I pay the wages of the people below?"

There was one thing he didn't say. That million dollars of gold is enough for him to go to any country for a lifetime. What about Poroshenko's henchmen? He has too many henchmen, and he doesn't care whether he lives or dies. With money, what will become of this hellish place. He doesn't care anymore.

Jiang Chen smiled and didn't answer again.

Before he came, he had already made an agreement with the Villie Society.

He will leave Ukraine in three days, and the purpose of his visit is only to select a few mercenaries to serve as bodyguards. The deal is private, and although he "does" have an undisclosed organization behind it, he has no intention of wading into the troubled waters of Ukraine.

The captured sniper will be returned after his safe departure, and if something happens to him in the past three days, then the information on the location of the sniper's detention will be automatically sent to Russia, and the hostages will be taken over by the Russian side.

Vasily did not know that he had been used with a trum agent, and it was impossible for the Willy Society to know that some of his information had been leaked to the Russians. So this sniper still has recycling value for them.

So, in order to prevent Jiang Chen from having an accident in the past three days, let alone plotting against him, the Weili Society even directly sent a few agents to secretly protect him, so as not to secretly make things bad by the KGB people.

But apparently they were thinking too much, and Jiang Chen had already reached an agreement with the KGB people. Even if there must be agents watching him from afar before he leaves, they will never do anything to him again.

"Do you need tanks other than soldiers? A T-64, I'll only charge you $1 million. ”

"Tank, where did I buy that thing?" Jiang Chen scolded with a smile.

Joke. Do you think that I don't know that those things are the legacy of the former Soviet Union? More than 400 T-64s are lying in the tank cemetery in Kharkov, and I don't know how many layers of ash have fallen, and it is a miracle to find one that can be driven, all of which are rotten goods that are sold to steel mills and no one wants.

I walked down the trench to a clearing. Makanov whispered a few words to a deputy conductor-like person, and then pulled over two stools and sat down with Jiang Chen with a smile.

The rest is simple.

The soldiers of the 92nd Mechanized Infantry Brigade came over in batches for "interviews", mainly by Nick, a veteran, and Jiang Chen just sat on the side and simply reviewed it. In order to prevent agents from other organizations from getting mixed up or something, I'll just question them a little later with a true agent.

It took about 2 hours. Finally got all this trouble done.

There are no special forces in Ukraine, but there are still many old guys in the army who are comparable to special forces. Among them are mainly Cossacks, who are born warriors and have excellent individual combat effectiveness.

The equipment had been unloaded, and with this group of veterans who had been removed from the army, they came to an abandoned warehouse about two kilometers away from the barracks, and Jiang Chen motioned for Nick to prepare for translation.

"I know you must be very confused in your hearts, such as being forcibly conscripted into the army, and now you are inexplicably removed from the army. Looking at these confused veterans, Jiang Chen stood on a discarded cargo box and said loudly.

"You have given enough blood for your homeland, and whether or not it is now worthy of your willingly allegiance, you have done a great job. So, it's time to get to the realistics. ”

"A ten-year contract with an annual salary of $100,000. Die for me, not for Poroshenko, who can't even get a salary. Sweeping over the pair of thoughtful eyes, Jiang Chen said loudly.

Like a pebble smashed into the calm water, the soldiers looked at each other and began to discuss.

Jiang Chen waited patiently for them to discuss a result. This kind of thing that determines the fate of the future will make anyone feel uneasy and confused.

"How do we know that you are telling the truth? The gang in Kyiv tricked us back to the front, and last month there was a pitiful 1,500 grits, and this month we didn't pay 1 gri. ”

"And then what are your plans?" Jiang Chen said softly.

"Get out of here and go to Poland, I've been removed anyway, thank goodness. The veteran spoke without hesitation.

"After looking at these things again. Are you still planning to do this?" Jiang Chen shrugged his shoulders and smiled as he motioned for Nick to take out the suitcase.

The suitcase opens.

Bundles of dollar bills, and everyone held their breath for a moment.

"The work is private, and you work for me. I'll pay you. Poland, to be a dignified refugee in another country, or to use your only strength with me, and after ten years of service, to go to any country with your savings? The opportunity is already in front of you, and the door is at the back. Whether you want to go or stay, you can choose for yourself. "Finished. Jiang Chen looked at them for a long time, and stopped speaking with a smile.

Ten years! a million dollars?!

Not to mention a million, they have never seen what 10,000 Franklins look like stacked together.

The group of veterans fried the pot again, but this time no one wanted to leave, but they were still suspicious of Jiang Chen's offer of such lucrative conditions.

"May I ask a question?" Finally, a middle-aged man with a furrow on his face stood up and asked tentatively with his hand raised.

"Of course. Jiang Chen looked at this person and asked in a relaxed tone.

"My name is Ivan," Ivan politely gave his name before speaking in a calm voice. "Can we know where we are going to serve before agreeing to your terms?"

"Africa, help me train mercenaries. Jiang Chen said very dryly.

Hearing that they were not dragged to hot spots to be cannon fodder, the expressions of these people eased a lot. After all, no matter how much money you have, you have to have a life to spend it.

"That's another question. How are you going to pay our salaries? Many of us have families hereβ€”"

Hearing this, Jiang Chen directly interrupted his words, waved his hand, and said directly in a very domineering manner: "Cash, transfer, whatever you want, pay once every six months." I have only one request, that your efforts are worthy of the salary you receive. You have to meet the targets I have given. ”

After a pause, Jiang Chen glanced at these people, and then said, "I know that many of you have families. You can choose to move them to the family quarters of the barracks, or you can choose to keep them here, or whatever. I'll pay you $10,000 in advance, and I want you to be at the door of Boryspil International Airport in three days. If someone runs away with the $10,000β€”"

Jiang Chen paused, and continued in a relaxed tone: "Then wouldn't I be too faceless? The remaining 900,000 US dollars will become a bounty for the head of the deserter. ”

After Nick dictated Jiang Chen's last sentence. Everyone held their breath.

Not because of the last threatening word, but because this Oriental boss was willing to give them $10,000 to settle down first?

It's a conscience to the point of exploding!

Just kidding, with such sincere conditions, who else would be a deserter? If there is, it is purely a donkey kick in the brain.

Seeing that no one objected anymore, Jiang Chen waved his hand and motioned for Nick to take out the work contract, and each person issued two copies. Anyone who signs the sign receives $10,000 in cash as a settling-in allowance.

Three days is enough time for them to take care of their family affairs.

After dealing with these things, Jiang Chen immediately announced his dissolution.

"You're really generous. Nick said with a smile, returning the suitcase containing nine hundred thousand dollars to Jiang Chen.

"Hehe, are you interested in working for me? I'll give you an annual salary of 1 million. Jiang Chen said with a smile.

Nick shook his head.

His reaction was also expected by Jiang Chen, what he said just now was just a joke.

"Roberts, this guy doesn't have a normal mind, and he still has a good eye for people. Jiang Chen handed him a cigarette and scolded with a smile.

Taking the cigarette from Jiang Chen's hand, Nick took out a lighter and lit it.

"Don't you smoke yourself?" Nick asked, raising an eyebrow, spitting out a smoke ring.

"Smoke occasionally, but rarely. Jiang Chen shook his head, pressed the position next to his ear, and sent a message to Aisha, "The mission is over, come back." ”

"Yes. ”

Ever since he was given a genetic drug, there was no such thing as a smoking addiction for him. The strengthened metabolic ability also allows the toxins accumulated in his body to be excreted from the body along with the excretory system. Strictly speaking, even if he smokes all the time, it will not affect his health.

I was able to smoke without restraint, but the reason for smoking was gone, and the smoke naturally stopped.

It turned out to be to relieve the helplessness of life and relieve the depressed emotions. But now, it seems to be quite happy?

It's just a little busy.

"What's next? What are you going to do in the next three days? Nick asked casually.

With a laugh, Jiang Chen grabbed a bundle of dollars from his suitcase and stuffed it into his arms.

"It's your bonus. It's rare to travel abroad, how can you not have a good time?"

Unceremoniously putting away the bundle of dollars, Nick grinned and looked at the petite figure who was walking from the factory gate.

A black cape, a slightly comical sniper rifle compared to the figure.

"Accompanying your little beauty?" asked Nick teasingly.

"Yes. Looking at Aisha from afar, Jiang Chen's face showed a rare softness, "I have to compensate her well." (To be continued.) )
