Chapter 818: Two Funerals
Early the next morning, at the cemetery on Koro Island, Jiang Chen, as the chairman of Star Ring Trade, attended the funeral of four fallen soldiers. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
Transwarp reported on the hijacking of the ship by pirates, and said that all the hostages had been rescued and that all the pirates had been killed on the spot. Four Star Ring Trade bodyguards died in the line of duty, and Jiang Chen personally attended the funerals of the four soldiers, and personally handed over the Medal of Honor and pensions to the families of the fallen soldiers.
At the funeral, after reading the eulogy speech, Jiang Chen spoke briefly to the media about the hijacking of a consignment ship by pirates.
“…… Transwarp Trade will not compromise with any evil forces, absolutely, and never will. No matter how much sacrifice is made, no matter what means are used, whether the provocation comes from pirates or whatever, we will do whatever it takes to protect our people. ”
“…… Let us remember those warriors who died for peace. ”
The audience burst into applause.
At the end of the speech, the reporter immediately stepped forward and stretched out the microphone.
"Mr. Jiang Chen, what do you think about what Mr. Smith, President of Arrow Company, pointed out about the connection between the nuclear explosion in Madagascar and the Transwarp Trade, as the director of Transwarp Trading?"
"I have no opinion on the vexatious statements. And on this sad day, I don't want to say anything about events that have nothing to do with the Warp trade. However, if the boss of Arrowhead is interested, I recommend him to go to the Koro Psychiatric Hospital for treatment. ”
There was a bit of good-natured laughter from the crowd.
Although he knew that it was not appropriate to laugh at the funeral, Jiang Chen's words still amused these foreign reporters.
Obviously, they also don't believe in a connection between the Ring trade and nuclear bombs. After all, it has not been a few months since the new country mastered civilian nuclear technology, and even if it ignores the span between civilian-grade nuclear technology and military-grade nuclear technology, and secretly replaces all the light-water reactors at the Koro Island nuclear power plant with heavy-water reactors, it will not be possible to make enough "plutonium" for nuclear weapons.
It is more likely to be believed that it is the nuclear weapons deployed by the Arrowhead company in Madagascar.
As for whether there was a US mandate behind this, it is unknown.
On the emerald green lawn, the guard of honor stood with their guns on their chests and fired three shots into the sky.
Surrounded by people, the coffin with the new flag was carried into the cemetery for burial. The military band played a solemn and passionate national anthem, which was particularly tragic under the crying of the families of the fallen soldiers.
The ceremony is almost over, and if you continue to stay here, I am afraid that you will have to deal with the endless interviews of those reporters. Jiang Chen nodded to Aisha beside him, then turned around and walked towards his car. The accompanying bodyguards blocked the reporter for him until the retro black sedan was gone.
……
Neither the White House nor the Pentagon has a precedent for wiping the ass of a private military contractor.
The White House press secretary insisted that he did not know, and at the same time told the public that the United States assets of the Arrow Company would be strictly investigated to ensure that there were no nuclear weapons that were not controlled by the government in the United States, and that the public would be able to be held accountable for the fact that it would almost end there.
As for the follow-up impact of this incident, it is still fermenting under the deliberate promotion of the online media under the Future People Group.
At this moment, far away in the manor house on the outskirts of Bavaria, Germany, members of the Freemasons were holding secret gatherings.
Even today, when the Internet is highly developed, they maintain a tradition of mysticism, relying on ancient dogmas to maintain covenants that are better than blood.
Sitting at the round conference table, the white-haired old man at the head of the seat, wearing the robe of the religious master of ceremonies, recited this opening sentence in a deep and solemn tone.
"Two days ago, on the island of Madagascar, we lost two of our compatriots. ”
"The deaths of Mr. Ferrer, a member of the third degree, and Evans, a member of the thirty-second degree, are a heavy loss to the Freemasons. We will not be blinded by hatred, and we will never spare every enemy who kills our fellow citizens. ”
"The Future People Group will surely pay the price for their stupidity. ”
"As punishment, I propose to send gatekeepers to Asia. ”
With that, the old man paused and looked at Carmen, who was sitting in the seat on the left.
"The new head of the Rothschilds, do you have any opinions?"
Twelve eyes looked at him, but Carmen's expression didn't change, and she leaned back in her chair and smiled.
"There are no opinions, Mr. Lord. ”
The Rothschilds have many friends, but no one can be called friends in front of the most core interests.
The old man nodded, and placed his right hand on the table, and on his withered finger, the golden ring glistened in the light of the candle.
"So, let's start voting. ”
Thirteen hands were placed on the table, and the thirteen families, representing the core of power in the Old World, unanimously approved the proposal of the Venerable Lord.
The old man nodded in satisfaction, and then looked to the door.
The man standing in the doorway bowed slightly, turned and disappeared into the darkened doorway, as if he had never been.
The old man withdrew his gaze.
"Now that the war has begun, let's carry out the ritual to the end. ”
All of them raised their right hands and solemnly repeated the vow that had been repeated ten thousand times in the ancient Hebrew language.
The candles on the walls flickered and flickered.
By the dim light, the thirteen upward-facing rings were all engraved with the number thirty-three.
……
Three days had passed since the hijacking of the consignment ship, and Jiang Chen sat in the study of the villa as usual, flipping through the unfinished books.
At this moment, there was a knock on Natasha's door.
As for why Jiang Chen was so clear, it was because Aisha was as light as a cat every time she knocked on the door...... If the cat knocks on the door.
"Please come in. ”
Jiang Chen sighed, and as he spoke, he stuffed the bookmark into the book, and then casually put it on the corner of the table.
Natasha strode in, and as Jiang Chen expected, she mentioned the matter straight to the point.
"You're going too far. ”
"Overdone?" Jiang Chen smiled, got up from his chair, and walked to the window of the study, "When I was in Antarctica, they sent a whole battalion of elites to besiege me, and at that time, they didn't think about whether they had gone too far. ”
The war began long ago, not just in the sense of bullets.
If any party naively thinks that the two sides can coexist, it is called real naivety. The new world must be nirvana in the flames of the old world, and both the Freemasons and the WASP consortium will eventually become enemies of the Future Syndicate, but the oldest should die first.
Hijacking a consignment is just a stupid temptation. Starting from the most marginal interests of the Future People Group, in the case of Jiang Chen's compromise, he took away the building blocks of this building little by little, and gradually extended his hand to more core interests......
However, Jiang Chen did not intend to compromise, from the beginning.
Natasha raised an eyebrow.
"You're really the one in Madagascar?"
"I didn't say anything. Jiang Chen shrugged his shoulders, looked at the drone building the garden outside the window, and said with a smile.
“……”
Natasha stared at Jiang Chen's back wordlessly, not knowing what to say at this moment.
She didn't know if he was confident that he would never lose with the cards in his hand, or if he was blindly conceited because of his current achievements. There were many who thought they could defeat the ancient alliance, but the geniuses who stood at the crossroads of history all ended up in the abyss of hell.
From Napoleon to Hitter Le, they were undoubtedly geniuses in terms of war alone.
"Can you answer me a question?"
Looking at the reflection of himself and Natasha in the window, Jiang Chen didn't turn around, and asked a little abruptly.
