181 For you, how to choose?
Carlos didn't expect that he would encounter such a depressing problem just after taking office.
"Mr. Li, why haven't we received any news about this assassination?"
Li Chen was also very helpless, he came to Mexico very late, and he had been staying in the United States before. Carlos, the former F.B.I. inspector, had only recently been hired to visit Jensen's farm in Mexico, but as soon as he arrived, he heard about the disappearance of an officer on the U.S. patrol, which had been done by two of his men. Although the United States does not know what is going on, the Americans do not need a reason to do anything in the Americas!
"I'm sorry, but it's happened. What we need to think about now is how we can solve the trouble caused by this matter. ”
Carlos took a deep breath to suppress the fire in his heart. It has not been a day or two since the United States has been the boss in the Americas, and he has never been the only one who bullies others, so how can anyone dare to bully him? And the Indians, who have long since declined? And dragons? Please don't say that it is the age of mythology 2,000 years ago!
"I don't want to know what's going on!"
"I just want to tell you one thing. That's everything is valuable in the United States. ”
"Originally, it would cost $50,000 a year to level American patrols, but now I believe it will cost $50. It doesn't take so much money to kill an American captain or even a colonel! Do you understand? Lee, it's a loss-making deal. Forget all your old notions! ”
"In the United States! Be cautious about things that don't do good! Otherwise you'll get some inexplicable enemies! ”
"I'll try to get back to the U.S. and settle this matter, but if that's still your mind, I'm going to retire early."
Carlos nodded, put on his hat and exited the room.
Li Chen flatteringly sent Carlos away and came to a room in the far corner of Reed's room. It was dark, without a glimmer of light or sound.
Xu Chi and Yang Huai were doing push-ups boringly. The two stared at each other with wide eyes, and while moving, they still puffed out their mouths and exchanged each other silently.
"You two bastards!" Li Chen was furious.
"Who gave you the privilege to kill a regular U.S. Army officer at will!! If you don't know how to solve something, can't you report it to me? Why do you have to listen to that damn Jensen's bad idea? ”
"It wasn't Jensen who said it, I brought it up." Yang Huai muttered.
"You? You idiot, if it weren't for the deliberate guidance of that kid Jensen, would you think of assassinating an officer of the regular army? Did you know that this will affect our overall plans? ”
Li Chen hated that iron could not become steel.
"We are Chinese, we are yellow!"
"What is the status of the yellow race in Mexico and the United States, haven't you seen it clearly for so long? Even if we take the initiative to do something, we will receive strange eyes, and even make things difficult intentionally or unintentionally! It is precisely because of this that Jensen has deliberately asked you to provoke the Americans in order to get out of our control! You've been taken advantage of by him, two fools! ”
"Are your brains full of mush!? Before we set off, the adults repeatedly told us not to do anything to attract the attention of foreigners until we had established ourselves. Have you forgotten all about it?! ”
Xu Chi and Yang Huaili stood up, hanging their heads.
"I brought over a hundred thugs from Jones, and these are handed over to you two. The two of you take them to the mountains and find a few better places to use as training bases. Without my permission, don't be in the eyes of any Mexican. Got it? ”
"Understood, sir." Xu Chi and Yang Huai puffed up their chests and agreed.
Li Chen snorted and found Carlos.
Carlos has just arrived today, but he's leaving again. The two chatted in a carriage.
"Lee, I don't want to ask you what exactly you want to do, and I don't care. But it's really not a good location, and the Mexican government, the U.S. government, is more powerful here than you. So if you want to do anything, be careful not to annoy the Americans. As long as you have the support of the U.S. border guards, even if you kill the president of Mexico, the U.S. can save your life. Do you understand? ”
Li Chen nodded with an ugly face.
"So, this time we may have to pay more than planned to get this way out. And the officer who died was a captain who graduated from West Point. You're lucky, this guy's family has suffered a lot of losses in the economic crisis, and they don't have much strength anymore, so if they are willing to spend money, this matter can still be easily suppressed. ”
"That's not what I'm trying to say."
"Lee, you have to understand that we shouldn't have come forward with this in the first place. Because at this time, I have no intention of telling them that we did it. ”
Li Chen nodded yes.
"The U.S. Army is too small, so they're united. Nearly all officers are trained at West Point. They are all alumni relationships. Even if the money is settled, it is unlikely that the US border guards will let you go here. ”
"So when I go back this time, I'll try to find someone to inquire. You don't expect too much. If I were you, I would give up there. Because there is already a registration with the border guards. ”
Li Chen's eyes flashed.
Jensen soon recruited about three hundred veterans, as well as about two hundred rogue ruffians. These people are not weak in combat. The key is to be willing to work hard. After the Mexican-American War, the Mexican government also began to disarm in a limited way, Mexico has never been a fiscal government, disarmament is to reduce spending, and after these murderous Army troops are discharged, many people are not in a good situation. In particular, the situation is even more serious in several states along the U.S.-Mexico border.
With five hundred, Jensen had wanted to recruit more. But suddenly he heard the news of the arrival of his younger brother Jones, which surprised him. Jones is very smart and means, except that he can't fight so he is suppressed by Jensen. Every other ability was above him, so when he came to Mexico, he left Jones with the U.S. side.
And for good reason, that ** in the United States really needs a literate and smart enough person to sit in charge. Under Jensen, the only one who could be trusted by Jensen and had the ability to do so was Jones. But now Jones is here?
"Jones, why are you here?" Jensen met Jones at the door of the inn. This relieved Jensen. He was still very relieved to meet in public.
"Boss, I'm here to make a delivery. During this time, we made a profit of $100,000. The company is doing well, and I thought I hadn't seen you for a long time. So come and take a look. Jones scoffed.
Well? Deliver goods? The goods, of course, are not ordinary goods, but guns. Jensen did send a telegram to the United States to have someone deliver the goods, but the delivery person was not Jones!
"Why not Knight?" Jensen squinted. No one knew that Knight was actually a good brother who grew up with him, on the contrary, in England, Knight was known for fighting against Jensen. Jensen, as an idealistic and ambitious gangster boss, how can he explain all his relationships clearly? After he figured out the situation in Mexico, and after he had more than a million dollars in cash, he didn't want to follow the big demon king for a long time. That's why Knight was asked to deliver the arms himself. In Mexico, where there are guns and money, Jensen thinks to himself that he can definitely make a career. In that case, why do you have to work for a yellow person? The key is that this yellow man is still out of reach in the Qing Kingdom!
As for Xu Chi and Yang Huai, he Jensen knew early on that these two people were standard soldiers, and they didn't have too many eyes at all, as long as they hinted at it, they had the audacity to kill an officer of the US Army!
When he received the guns, he would tell the U.S. military that when the time came, the Qing people who stayed on that farm would definitely be finished, and even if they didn't die, the Qing people would be struggling in the United States and Mexico, but he Jensen would have already gone to other states with money and guns to break the world.
"Knight? Knight is sick. Jones smiled.
Jensen, however, thought the smile was evil. Because he actually saw that the bodyguards he had specially selected from the recruited retired soldiers actually blocked the door of the hotel, and then slowly closed the door. At some point, the guests and the owners of the hotel disappeared.
"Why?" Jensen couldn't figure out what had gone wrong.
"Oh. Knight told me before he got sick that you seem to want to run away, boss. Jones sighed.
"Knight betrayed me!! Why!!! Jensen was furious.
Because Knight's current salary is $1,000 a month, and with bonuses, he can earn 1,500 dollars a month, and in addition to that, he has a house of his own and a beautiful woman who loves him. You see, this kind of life is something he never dared to think of before. ”
"And if he runs away with you, he may get a good profit, but he has to risk being chased by bounty hunters, and he has to abandon his lover and good living conditions."
Jones still smiled: "If you were replaced, what would you choose?" ”
