At 9 a.m. on January 18, 1976, Jefferson met me alone in his office, and we talked over coffee on the couch.

Jefferson said, "Jack! You are the best candidate to be a webmaster! However, I do not have the authority to promote you directly, you must tell the inspectors at CIA headquarters with your actions, performance, and loyalty! To give you a chance to prove yourself, I'm going to send you and Tom to Buenos Aires, Argentina, where you work as CIA acting webmaster and assistant webmaster, respectively! ”

Jefferson thought for a moment, then he continued, "Oh! This workstation is really terrible! At the moment, it is already in a semi-paralyzed state! This is a very challenging job for you! First of all, you need to help the CIA headquarters to handle the station work of this workstation, find out the cause of the paralysis, and get the workstation back to normal operation as soon as possible! Then, you begin to learn about and master a local old secret terrorist organization! This organization is a social transformation chamber of local high-ranking officials and top tycoons, and recently, this chamber of commerce is planning and executing some international terrorist acts that threaten the survival and prosperity of the free world! With full control of their plan of action and evidence of the crime, you manage to dismantle their headquarters and eliminate all their core members! These are the two things you do in the Argentine capital! Do you understand?! ”

I said, "Got it!" Sir! ”

Jefferson said, "Good! This afternoon, you and Tom will go to the base archives right away, use the files there, and check out all the files at that station, as well as the files about the Social Rehabilitation Chamber of Commerce! In two days, I'll send you to work there! ”

For the next day and a half, Xiao Da and I soaked in the base archives.

After reading and analysing the vast amount of information in these two sections, we have the following information:

The situation of the workstation we are about to manage is that there are more than 20 staff in the station, and the age of the personnel is basically over 45 years old, which is an old workstation!

The workstation has assets such as shipyards, and the workstation mainly relies on the income of the assets such as shipyards held to maintain the expenses of the workstation.

However, the salaries and allowances of the staff of the whole station are in arrears for a long time, and the action funds of the whole station are not guaranteed, and the personal advance expenses have not been reimbursed for a long time!

As a result, several functional departments in the station have repeatedly applied directly to the CIA headquarters for funding, but because they do not meet the funding application process, they rarely get approval from the headquarters!

Therefore, at present, the morale of the whole station is low, the loss of personnel is serious, and the tasks issued by the headquarters have not been completed!

At present, in addition to the stationmaster, deputy stationmaster, intelligence minister, action captain and other important positions, the rest of the personnel are locally recruited, the station personnel lack training, and the equipment is backward, it is a typical mess!

The local Chamber of Social Rehabilitation is a long-established secret organization that existed during World War II, and their network of organizations has been strong, and it has fully infiltrated the military, the government, and the local monopoly industry, and it has gained legal status in the local area.

Recently, this organization is uniting the local military and government to establish an anti-American alliance, preparing to introduce strategic weapons of mass destruction from the opponents of the old United States and deploy them in South America, preparing to directly threaten the North American region!

However, the CIA suffers from the lack of conclusive evidence and intelligence on their part, so there is no reason to strike and exterminate them!

After understanding and mastering these situations, Xiaoda and I basically knew what to expect!

However, we feel that Jefferson has entrusted us with this CIA problem to deal with, and he has really thought about it, although Xiaoda and I are really not completely sure whether this operation will be successful!

However, we really wanted to carry out this mission, because we can't stand in the CIA without merit!

......

At 8 a.m. on January 20, General Jefferson met me and Xiaoda in his office.

Everyone is talking over coffee on the couch.

Jefferson smiled and said, "Jack! How did you feel after reading the file? ”

I said, "Your Excellency! It doesn't feel too good! Through the analysis of the archives, we believe that the paralysis of the workstation is caused by economic problems, of course, the cause of this problem we have to go to the local area to understand, and after we have the situation and evidence, we need the headquarters audit and law enforcement department to carry out the final review and judgment of these economic cases! As for the issue of the Social Reform Association, we believe that the local workstation must have accumulated a lot of front-line intelligence information, and they must have a very good understanding of the development of this organization from World War II to the present, so after straightening out the management of the station, we will use the old intelligence personnel there to conduct a new and comprehensive systematic investigation of this organization, and after we obtain the required information, we will plan to take down this terrorist organization in one fell swoop! ”

Jefferson smiled and said, "Jack! Your analysis is very correct! I know it's hard for you to deal with these things! Otherwise, I won't let you go! To make your work go more smoothly, I've asked Chris to liaise with you on my behalf! In the meantime, send Steve with seven or eight members of the squad as your direct action team, and they'll go with you to the scene! At the same time, the headquarters specially allocated the expenses during your operation, and after you arrived at the scene, you rented a hotel to live in and operated independently! When the operation is over, all of you retreat to HQ! ”

I said, "Your Excellency! This arrangement is very beneficial to our work! I am so grateful for your support! ”

Jefferson said, "Jack! Now, the stationmaster of that workstation is Mr. Kojala, he is the new stationmaster who has just taken office, before, Kojara used to be my student, and I think Kojara is a trustworthy person! Tomorrow morning at 8 a.m., you're flying from New York to Buenos Aires, and I'll have Kojara pick you up at the local airport! In the future, you can discuss all your matters with Kojara! ”

I said, "Okay! Thank you, Your Excellency, for the personnel arrangement! We will definitely work well with Kojala! ”

Jefferson said, "All right! I've got $500,000 for you to fund the upfront event! You just need to use it according to the CIA! When you come back, you will reimburse me for the bills!" In addition, you will receive a set of computers and satellite communication devices, two sets of agent tools, and the necessary weapons and equipment. The password of the computer system and communication system was used last time, and you and I kept in touch alone! Steve, their equipment, etc., I inform them to prepare themselves! ”

Jefferson handed me a duffel bag containing $500,000 in cash and a copy of the CIA Fee Standards and Management Manual.

Then, Xiao Da and I took what Jefferson had given us and went to the base's weapons and tools depot to pick up the action items.

In the warehouse, we received a computer case containing a laptop and satellite communication devices, two kits containing various agent paraphernalia, a personal handgun, 50 rounds of ammunition, a dagger and 5 miniature high bullets.

Actually, we could have brought some more gear, but with Steve's team, we really didn't need to bring much.

After we returned to the apartment dormitory with a few suitcases and bags, Xiaoda and I began to pack our casual bags.

After cleaning up, the two of us chatted in the living room over coffee and snacks.

Xiaoda said: "Alas! Ahh It's the southern hemisphere, it's the most remote place in the world, and we're going to stay for a year, is 500,000 dollars enough? ”

I said, "Yes! However, I don't think it will take that long! If I'm not mistaken, Kojara should have been the one Jefferson promoted! The contents of the file show that Kojara has been working at that workstation since graduating from the CIA Secret Service School! He should be very familiar with the workstation and the local situation, if this person is willing to cooperate with us, we will be able to do a lot of things! ”

Xiaoda smiled and said, "Yes! If we can solve Kojara's difficulties, things will be easy! When Kojara took office, he must have encountered financial difficulties! ”

I said, "Yes! Funding is only one aspect, Kojara must have other difficulties, I guess, it has something to do with the veterans of this station! Because those veterans have the CIA headquarters relationship and the Golden Bell Jar, Kojara definitely has no way to take these veterans! Besides, it's remote, and the mountains are high and the emperor is far away! Kojara is very difficult to get direct support from headquarters! That's why Jefferson sent us as his own soldiers to deal with the problem and help Kocjara! Do you understand? ”

Xiaoda smiled and said, "Ah Cai! I see! You are really Zhuge Liang alive! ”

......

At 8 a.m. on January 21, Xiaoda and I took a military flight to Buenos Aires with Steve and eight other members of the team, including equipment and luggage.

......

At 8 p.m., our military flight landed at a US military airfield in the city of Buenos.

After we left the airport, Kojara and a young man drove a beat-up minibus and met us at the airport entrance.

Xiaoda and I have both seen the pictures of Kocajala!

At this time, Kojara was already a middle-aged man in his forties, medium height, bald and gray-haired, somewhat emaciated and haggard, he had lost the handsome and dashing appearance of his youth, and he was really inspired!

After we introduced each other, we got on the bus with our gear and luggage.

As soon as we got into the car, Kojara's entourage drove away.

In the car, Kojara and I sat and talked.

Kojara smiled and said, "Major Jack! There is a very nice hotel next to our shipyard! This hotel is run by their own people! I want you to stay there so that we can communicate with each other! However, we have no funds for our workstations! Therefore, you have to pay for the accommodation yourself! ”

I said, "Kojara Stationmaster, thank you for arranging!" Let's just stay there! We will pay for our own expenses! ”

At about 9 p.m., we arrived at the hotel next to the shipyard.

It's on the outskirts of the city, and the hotel is just across the road from the shipyard.

This hotel is really good, there are no residential areas around, there is parking, the hotel has restaurants, cafes, bars and other facilities.

The standard of housing equipment meets the multi-star standard, the fee schedule is 150 US dollars / day for a double standard room, we need 5 rooms, a dedicated office, the hotel front desk calculates that our daily cost is 900 US dollars, and we provide three meals a day for free.

So, after checking in at the hotel front desk and paying a $6,300 deposit for seven days, we got the keys to our room and office.

After I gave Steve the keys to the four suites, the eight of them went to arrange the room with their own gear!

Kojara smiled and said, "Jack! It's not too early! Go back to your room and rest! Tomorrow morning, I'll go to the hotel and talk to you about work! ”

I said, "Okay! Thank you to the stationmaster Kocachara for your kind hospitality! In the future, we will definitely cooperate with you to do things well in the station! Our mission is to help you solve your problems and get back to work! ”

After we finished talking, Kojara walked away with her head down!

Xiaoda and I went back to our room with our equipment and luggage to rest.

Go to your room, put your gear and luggage, and have a coffee in the living room to talk.

Xiaoda smiled and said, "Ah Cai! Kojara is still a very cooperative CIA employee! He's seen us as his own! ”

I said, "Yes! Jefferson should have told him about us! He should know we're here to help him! His life must be quite stressful right now! In addition, he is old and has no other means of making a living, and the income from the CIA job was the breadwinner of his family's life when he came! ”

Xiaoda said: "Alas! What a wonderful! Not everyone gets rich as a CIA! ”

I said, "Yes! Everywhere is based on performance! How can you make a fortune without performance?! ”
