Chapter 425: Once, Now
"Cook, you don't have to take over the jackal. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info If you really don't think it's suitable, then I won't force you to ...... next" Hou Dasheng pushed the giant wolf for a walk in the manor, just now the giant wolf's wife and children had just come to see him.
It was not until today that Hou Dasheng saw the wife and children of the giant wolf. Or ex-wife and children to be exact. Whether it was the life of SBS or the life of a mercenary. The giant wolf has always been upside down, and the day is precarious. Even if the two parties love each other again, there is no way to bear it.
Old-fashioned and simple story, constant quarrels between the husband and wife. In the end, the marriage of the two came to an end. After calming down, they suddenly realized that keeping their distance from each other might be the best way for them to get along. Even if she was divorced, the ex-wife of the giant wolf did not find anyone else to marry. The giant wolf did not find another woman to marry.
Whenever the wolf returned to London, he would go to his ex-wife as long as time permitted. Two people who have been divorced continue to live together strangely. Their son, who is already in junior high school, doesn't think there's anything wrong with that. Maybe this way of living and getting along with each other is what suits them best.
The son of the giant wolf, almost exactly like him, is almost the same as the giant wolf when he was young. Tall, muscular, and with a sunny smile. Like his father, he habitually wore short hair. The rest of the area is all cleanly shaved. It can be seen that the giant wolf as a father has a great influence on him.
He was very polite and generous, and greeted Hou Dasheng respectfully. Then he respectfully took the handle of his father's wheelchair and gently pushed his father to say something. Before they left, they returned the giant wolf to Hou Dasheng. At the same time, he thanked Hou Dasheng for taking care of the giant wolf and supporting his mother's boy to leave.
"You're not forcing me, you know." Hou Dasheng pushed the giant wolf's wheelchair, and the two of them walked slowly in the sunset: "Didn't you choose me for this reason?!" I will not refuse. In my toughest time, it was the jackal who gave me everything. From the chances of surviving, to combat skills. β
Hou Dasheng pushed the giant wolf and said softly: "I can't forget these." One of the most fundamental things in being a human being is not to forget one's roots. A person who forgets the favor of others is a mean person. Such a person will eventually lose all his support. So, you don't have to worry, commander. I will follow your wishes and become the new leader of the jackals. β
"Before, I was subconsciously cultivating other people. It's a pity ......" The giant wolf seemed to be a little sad, and Hou Dasheng was silent. After a while, the giant wolf said in a deep voice: "Originally, I thought that I would be able to carry it for the jackal's comrades for a few more years. It's a pity that God didn't seem to give me this opportunity......"
Hou Dasheng began to laugh and divert the topic, saying that Lisa was pregnant and twins. Now in France, Lisa has become a little girl after she became pregnant. I didn't say it, but I really wanted to go back to France. Hou Dasheng, who knew his wife's thoughts, accompanied her back to France this time.
I wanted to accompany Lisa more in France, but this time I was involved in the incident and was sent to London again. Now that the giant wolf is like this, it is impossible for Hou Dasheng to walk away. The Doctor said that the wolf's time was running out. Soon, maybe two months. It won't be more than half a year.
To put it simply, there is not much time left for Hou Dasheng to hand over to the giant wolf. He needs to get his own business done as soon as possible, and then take over everything from the giant wolf to the jackal. It includes a large number of network resources, jackals' assets and intelligence networks that only the regiment commander has access to.
"Captain, I have to go to France first. And then go back to China again. Hou Dasheng pushed the giant wolf and said softly: "It will take at least two months to rush back." This is already the shortest amount of time, and I can only officially take over the jackal ...... after all the heads and tails have been dealt with."
The giant wolf was illuminated by the setting sun, and his whole body was covered in golden light. The giant wolf seemed to be enjoying all this, and whispered in the glow, "It's okay." Once you've taken care of it, you'll be able to stay at the jackal. In fact, it won't take you a long time, as long as you find the right next regimental commander, you can retire......"
"I'm more unlucky, the last regiment commander died in battle. I took over, and I relied on the older generation of jackals to provide me with everything. I reluctantly pulled the line up. The giant wolf seemed to be reminiscing, and as if to state: "It was a very difficult time! Our corps is less than a hundred people left. It was the heaviest loss. β
The wheelchair slowly moved towards the big house, and the giant wolf muttered in the setting sun: "Chechnya, the pain in the hearts of Americans." It is also a pain in our hearts. There, the old regimental commander died in battle. Fortunately, before I died, I finally managed to take over most of the jackal's intelligence, funds, and network. Although some of it was lost, most of it was saved. β
The giant wolf muttered a story that Hou Dasheng had never heard before. In the first Chechen war, the stupid new Russian president naively thought that the Chechen problem was just the Chechen problem. As a result, tens of thousands of casualties in the Russian army in two years have consumed a lot of manpower, energy, materials and funds. But in the end, it ended in a gloomy end.
What the naΓ―ve president didn't see was that a large group of mercenaries had infiltrated Chechnya in various ways and under various pretexts. These people have caused a large number of casualties to the Russian army. Urban melee, street fighting, guerrilla warfare...... Every time the Russian army goes further, it needs to pay a terrible price. Most of the people they killed and wounded were Chechen militiamen who were worthless at all. But the real core attack force, those bloodthirsty mercenaries, they were not able to kill or injure much.
The first defeat made Russia hurt to the bone marrow. Three years later, the Russian ruthless man came to power. The first thing he did was to defeat Chechnya without compromise! However, the troops at that time already had a fear of war. The defeat of Chechnya in the first war cast a shadow on everyone's hearts.
At this time, the head of the jackal appeared. Ten years of earnings from three oil wells, and a gold mine. The jackal chose to take the side of Russia. That war lasted shorter than the first, but it was more bloody than the first Chechen war, which lasted two years......
With jackal's advice and intelligence support, the Russian ruthless threw in almost all the special operations units that Russia could use. Whether it was originally used to protect anti-terrorism, or it is subordinate to the intelligence system. Or maybe it originally belonged to other legions of the Russian army.
All the special operations forces, all entered the battlefield. In this battle, the wounded soldiers were limited and many were killed. Just according to the official figures, the Russian army lost almost eight thousand people. In fact, even the jackals and some other small mercenary units that were mixed in suffered more losses than that.
Chechnya suffered even greater losses, with the Chechen militia alone losing nearly 20,000. And those, including the former Chimera, were almost wiped out. The Americans, who seem to have nothing to do with each other, but in fact also invested through special channels, have suffered a lot. In the end, they had to choose to withdraw from the battlefield - unless they were dispatched directly and provided with sufficient logistics.
Otherwise, the troops that are put in will only be emptied. This time Russia is very unreasonable, as long as it finds a suspicious area, whether it is civilians or militants. The direct choice is artillery support, air strike. Step by step, under the baptism of large-scale artillery fire and air raids, no matter how good the combat skills are, it will be in vain.
More than 50,000 casualties finally made Chechnya sober realize one thing: if they don't choose to compromise, then the ruthless man will not hesitate to kill them all. They finally compromised. After paying a heavy price, Russia emerged victorious. But the price of victory was severe.
Again, the defeated opponent suffers even more. Exactly how many people died, no one knows. The exact number may not be able to be counted. Under the artillery fire, air raids, and non-stop fighting, no one can count how many people died. Many bones are buried under the rubble.
After two days at the manor, Hou Dasheng flew back to Paris on an early flight. The plane is Benoit's private jet, and the alarm has been lifted, so Benoit naturally doesn't mind using his own private jet to get his brother-in-law back.
"Congratulations! Passed the test. After getting off the plane, Hou Dasheng saw Benoit with a slightly pale face. Smiling and hugging his brother-in-law, Benoit said softly: "To be honest, the jackal did this game too deeply. I didn't even see it. β
Hou Dasheng smiled and said softly: "If it is seen, this bureau will not be a bureau." In any case, thank you very much for the support you and the London branch have given me. I will always remember how you helped me! β
The two couldn't help but laugh at each other, and then boarded the car together. After closing the car door, Benoit smiled and said to Hou Dasheng: "Lisa is doing a prenatal checkup, you can see her when you go back." Ever since she knew you were safe, she had been waiting for news of your return every day. But he won't call you. I'm not allowed to call you. β
"It's me who is not good, and I said that I would accompany her more. As a result, I was busy with my own affairs again......" Hou Dasheng lowered his head, a little guilty. Benoit sighed, patted Hou Dasheng's shoulder and said softly: "So this is a kind of sorrow for women." Marrying an incompetent man, you can only enjoy his mediocrity will be very unwilling. But marrying a strong man, you often face a lot of problems alone. Because it's not that they don't want to be there for you, it's that they can't be there for you......"
Benoit paused and said softly: "In Huaxia's parlance, I should use 'penitent husband to find a marquis', right?!" β
