Chapter 328: The show begins
"It's too early to draw conclusions," Yunlong said, breaking the silence, "Although the Islamic Justice League has declared itself responsible, there is enough reason to believe that there is someone else at the culprit. It's just that now the intelligence is limited, and blindly making judgments will only mislead us, so we have to wait and see. ”
"However, you have to be prepared for the best."
Yunlong nodded, not refuting Wang Dong's opinion.
Although D&F Saudi Arabia does not have much business in Iraq, and Xie Chuyue and Zhang Zilan have also left Iraq, the assassination of Saeed will definitely turn the domestic situation in Iraq upside down, or it will not be long before it will spread to the surrounding areas, and I am afraid that the entire Middle East region will not be at peace.
When the time comes, Wang Dong and they will definitely not be able to stay out of the matter.
Don't forget, Saudi Arabia is Iraq's neighbor.
In addition, among D&F Saudi Arabia's main customers, Kuwait and Jordan are also Iraq's neighbors, and the UAE and Oman are also linked to Iraq.
"Call everyone back." Wang Dong let out a long breath and said to Musharraf, "Red alert, let everyone return to Saudi Arabia within 24 hours." ”
Musharraf nodded in agreement and then got up and left.
Although it is possible to issue call-up orders by e-mail, some people are located in areas where there is no internet at all, so they have to call one by one.
You must know that the personnel who operate outside are all affiliated with Angu Company.
To put it bluntly, everything that is not seen in the light is the responsibility of Angu Company, and D&F Saudi Arabia Company is a pure production and sales enterprise.
In order to expand business and open up the market, dirty work is inevitable.
For example, when selling the DF762 series of firearms to Saudi Arabia, D&F Saudi Arabia was also buying back the standard firearms originally equipped by the Saudi army. After the necessary maintenance and disposal, D&F Saudi Arabia sold the guns back to a trading company run by the Saudi military, which commissioned Angu to send them to Yemen and Syria and provide the necessary training.
In addition, D&F Saudi Arabia also engages Angu to provide training services when selling firearms to certain customers.
As a result, operatives like Xie Chuyue and Churkin are all under the name of Angu and have nothing to do with D&F Saudi Arabia.
Obviously, in Yemen and Syria, especially in remote areas, only satellite phones are available.
"What does that mean?"
When Musharraf went out, Wang Dong asked.
Although he is no longer a member of the Military Intelligence Agency, but with Yunlong and Yunfeng here, Wang Dong does not regard himself as an outsider, and it is impossible to only care about himself.
"I haven't contacted it yet, but the current situation is very chaotic, and we have to wait and see." Yunlong sighed.
"If there is an arrangement above, they will naturally contact us." Yunfeng said and handed the tablet computer to Wang Dong. "This is what I just received."
Wang Dong took a closer look, and his expression immediately became gloomy.
It is a video of Serena and a kidnapper wearing a mask, and the video has been processed, and the kidnapper's voice is obviously different from that of ordinary people.
The kidnappers demanded a ransom of $100 million, and asked Wang Dong to pay the money by name.
"Where did it come from?" Wang Dong slowly let go of his hand and put down the tablet.
"It was sent to an email address you used in the UK, and I have checked that the kidnappers used a relay server to conceal the origin of the documents."
Wang Dong nodded slightly and looked at Nicholas who was sitting opposite.
"Give me a little time, but I can't guarantee that I will be able to find the source, after all, the average programmer can rewrite the basic information of the file."
"It's a trap."
When Yunlong said this, Wang Dong looked at him.
"100 million dollars, and cash, who can take that much cash?" Yunlong took out a cigarette, lit it and took two puffs before saying, "What era is it now, isn't asking for cash to cause trouble for yourself?" Of course, this is also creating problems for us. To put it bluntly, if we were to prepare a $100 million ransom as the kidnappers demanded, we would have to withdraw a large amount of money in the near future. Even if we were able to withdraw so much cash from the bank, we would inevitably leave clues through which those guys would be able to find us. ”
"We've been in Saudi Arabia and we're not hiding."
"But you can't go to the U.S. with $100 million in cash."
Wang Dong let out a long breath and nodded slightly, indicating that he understood what Yunlong meant, that is, he wanted to try to withdraw money from the bank after arriving in the United States.
"Besides, why should you personally pay the money to ransom people? If all the kidnappers want is money, do they care who sends it? The kidnappers know you, they know the email you use, and they know what you're capable of. If I were a kidnapper, I wouldn't have let you go. ”
"Maybe Serena told the kidnappers."
Yunlong smiled faintly and said, "If Serena is really the person you said can trust her life, she would rather die than compromise with the kidnappers." ”
Wang Dong sighed again, he wanted to refute, but he couldn't find a reason to refute.
"It's obviously a trap, as long as you're calm enough, even if I don't say it, you can see it." Yunlong paused slightly, and then said, "It's been a few days since the incident, but you have never gone to the United States, and the kidnappers must not be able to wait, so they will make this decision." ”
"Is there a connection between these two things?" Zhao Yu asked at this time.
"Maybe there is, maybe not, it's not clear yet." Yunlong glanced at Wang Dong and said, "Of course, since the kidnappers made a request and showed that they had no intention of harming the hostages, they still had a chance. If you believe me, let me deal with it, and don't interfere. ”
Wang Dong gritted his teeth, nodded again, and didn't say anything more.
After Yunlong reminded him, Wang Dong had already seen that the kidnappers demanded ransom at this time, just to force him to go to the United States to throw himself into the net.
Of course, Yunlong's guarantee is also the guarantee of the Military Intelligence Agency.
If even the Military Intelligence Agency can't save Serena, even if Wang Dong goes to the United States in person, there will be no better results.
At this time, Yunfeng's mobile phone rang.
After connecting, Yunfeng listened for a while, and hung up the phone without saying anything.
"I just received the news that Iraqi Parliament Speaker Razak has declared a state of emergency in the country and is serving as the interim prime minister of the government in accordance with the law."
The Speaker of the House of Representatives as interim Prime Minister?
Why not the Deputy Prime Minister?
Also, doesn't Iraq have a president?
Wang Dong looked at Yunfeng very suspiciously, obviously not understanding the relationship.
"The Speaker is the number two leader of the country, and according to the law, the president is only a symbolic head of state and has no power to lead the government." Yun Feng paused slightly, and then said, "Razak is the leader of the National Power Alliance, that is, the Sunni political group. ”
"There's a good show to watch now." Yunlong said.
Wang Dong smiled bitterly, because he had already thought of the powerful relationship here.
