Chapter 188: Inevitable Conflict
Seeing a dilapidated military truck carrying away the gun-wielding blacks who had been captured by the workers, Tang Guoming turned his eyes to Xiong Yi who was standing beside him: "That's it?" ”
After drinking a bottle of drinking water in one go, Xiong Yi gasped heavily: "That's it." This is the limit of what we can do at the moment, and it is the best result. ”
With a cold snort, Pan Guan, who was standing beside Tang Guoming, squinted his eyes and looked at the military truck that was almost gone: "I'll just say that those people don't look at the right way!" The posture and stance of the gun seem to have undergone some training. At first, I thought it was a low-end mercenary found by those guys who planted khat grass, but I never expected it..... It's actually government army personnel doing private work? ”
casually threw the empty bottle into the recycling bin not far away, Xiong Yi shook his head with a wry smile: "This kind of thing....... You will work in Africa for a few more years, and you will be able to adapt. Regime change in many small African countries is too fast, and almost all government agencies related to finance and people's livelihood have been heard of but have never seen of them. The same is true militarily -- with the exception of a small number of descendants, most members of the government army have long been in a state of no salary, no logistical supplies, and no unified command. In order to fill their stomachs, those who come out to serve as mercenaries are considered good people. There are also many who simply take off their military uniforms and plunder directly at the people near the station. ”
Listening to Xiong Yi's eloquent conversation, Bao Lei asked with some unease: "But just let them go, in case they ......."
Obviously knowing what Bao Lei wanted to say, Xiong Yi shook his head at Bao Lei: "They won't accept those who grow khat grass anymore. ”
Looking at Xiong Yi in a blink of an eye, Tang Guoming's expression also had a little disbelief: "Sure? ”
Nodding calmly, Xiong Yi replied, "Sure!" Something...... All I can say is that people who can command this kind of army are generally very ruthless! Especially in order to protect his personal interests, he will be more ruthless when he starts! ”
As if to prove that Xiong Yi's words were true, shortly after the military truck had just turned around a sand dune, a short but fierce burst of gunfire had already been heard in the wind. Without waiting for Tang Guoming and the others to subconsciously look in the direction where the gunshots came, the cold voice of Gu Weisu, who was on guard on the periphery of the construction site, had already come from the communicator: "Execution-style shooting, dozens of people have been executed." ”
Glancing at Tang Guoming, Xiong Yi shook his head helplessly: "This is how the head of the local government army solves the problem...... Okay, let's not talk about them, let's go into the house and talk about the construction site? ”
Followed by Tang Guoming and Xiong Yi towards a nearby board house, Pan Guan said to Xiong Yi with some curiosity: "I talked for a long time...... What did the leaders of the government army gain? Will you be so ruthless? ”
Raising his finger and pointing to the few wires passing through his head, Xiong Yi didn't say more, walked straight into the board room, and sat down on a folding chair: "You decided?" ”
Listening to Xiong Yi's question, which sounded like an inexplicable question, Tang Guoming was not surprised at all, and also sat down on a folding chair opposite Xiong Yi: "There is no other way." In the short term, if we want our water conservancy project to have a sufficient escort team, we can only use those people. ”
After pondering for a moment, Xiong Yi nodded slowly: "It's the only way to do it!" According to the information obtained by the company, the progress of the water conservancy project must be accelerated, otherwise it will have an impact on the company's subsequent business expansion. And those who grow khat grass ......"
With a slight tangle of his eyes, Tang Guoming interrupted Xiong Yi's words: "Those who plant khat grass, or ...... The financiers behind them also want to speed up the pace of their career expansion? ”
Not surprised at all by Tang Guoming's ability to derive battlefield intelligence, Xiong Yi just said to himself: "Originally, using khat grass to control the indigenous people in the Jinsha Dune area is a method with little investment, quick results, and can generate huge profits later. Although this method is indeed lacking in virtue and smoking, it cannot be denied that the feasibility and promotion of this method are extremely high! But because of your early intervention, their plans had to ......."
Raising an index finger towards Xiong Yi, Tang Guoming's brows furrowed suddenly: "Intervene in advance?" We've only been in the Golden Dunes area for a few dozen hours, so if we intervene in advance....... Can't tell, right? ”
Reaching out and taking out a shoddy booklet from his trouser pocket, Xiong Yi raised his hand and threw the booklet on the table in front of Tang Guoming: "I was originally going to catch a rabbit for dinner, but I didn't expect an arrow to shoot over, and it was a wolf who was hit by the arrow!" ”
Grabbing the pamphlet thrown by Xiong Yi, Tang Guoming just roughly glanced at the contents recorded in the pamphlet, and his face became solemn: "I really didn't expect it...... How can it be so wide-ranging? ”
Stretching hard, Xiong Yi supported his knees with both hands and stood up from the folding chair with difficulty: "We are playing a big game of chess, and our opponent is ...... In other words, our competitors are not fools. Europe is already dry and fishing, the Americas are also too busy to take care of themselves, Oceania is closed off from the rest of the country, Asia is gradually rising, and the only thing left is Africa. Whoever can eat this huge cake, even if it is an extra bite of the cake, can bring great benefits to the present and future generations! ”
Browsing the words and numbers recorded in the small notebook at a glance, Tang Guoming replied casually: "So now, two people who want to eat cake just bite into the same position?" ”
Moving his somewhat stiff cervical spine, Xiong Yi did not shy away from responding: "That's right! After you got Franklin back. Benson, especially after getting back the ledger he had in his possession, the company's information analysts quickly analyzed the flow of goods and money recorded in that ledger and analyzed where another person who wanted to eat cake would be. So...... Collisions are inevitable, and conflicts will happen quickly! ”
casually handed the booklet to Pan Guan, who was standing beside him, Tang Guoming looked at Xiong Yi who was walking back and forth in the board room: "I need the support of the company!" Strong support! ”
Stretching his waist again, Xiong Yi responded: "Before I came, all the equipment in the Oasis Base had already begun to be transferred to the towns in the Jinsha Dune area. All the regular equipment you need will also arrive in three days. By the way, your opponents are likely to be the same Americans who fought you in Tawi. ”
Tang Guoming: "In other words, they are the owners behind the group of people who planted khat grass?" ”
Xiong Yi: "Judging from the flow of funds and sales channels, the probability is more than 90%. ”
A fierce light flashed in his eyes, and Tang Guoming suddenly stood up from the folding chair: "So this fight...... I'm not bound by any rules of engagement! ”
Blinking his eyes, a sinister smile suddenly appeared on Xiong Yi's face: "Rules of engagement? What the fuck is that? ”
