Chapter 285: Major
Let Somalia be one place. It seems that having money is also a worship for the warlords. things.
Think about it, in some mountainous places, where do you get the bank? Even in all, there are not many bank business halls. So most of their money is in the form of cash, hidden in their own nests. But they also have to guard against whether their subordinates will return to them and kill people and rob money.
Kosov, too, hid large sums of cash in his barracks and kept another sum in the bank. Just money deposited in the bank. It's not his name, it's the person he found who has a head on his head. There is no way, in this place, you a small major suddenly has such a large sum of money, even if you are a warlord, it is a little unclear.
The whole barracks was as usual, no one knew that the armory had been secretly emptied, and it was always hot until ten o'clock, and the lights were gradually turned off and quiet.
Kosov was no exception, although he was a warlord, he was at least a soldier, and his routine was still in accordance with the rules of the barracks. So at half past ten, he had the two prostitutes he had found sent away, and after drinking a little wine, he turned off the lights and rested.
When Zhou Yuanqiang appeared in his room. He was already making a slight humble.
Perhaps it was self-confidence that Kosov's money, which was stored in a huge safe, weighed at least three tons, and if you wanted to steal it, it seemed somewhat impossible. If it is used in a hard way, there are 600 soldiers living in the entire barracks, who will dare to attack hard? So Kosov believes that it is very safe.
It's just that he would never have imagined that there would be a freak like Zhou Yuanqiang in this world, and when he fell asleep, with just a wave of his hand, the three-ton safe disappeared in such a big room.
When Zhou Yuanqiang left, it was also quiet, and the entire military camp was quiet. The occasional uranium spotlight swept by, and there were soldiers walking by in the faint light, their abilities could not show Zhou Yuanqiang's ghost-like degree.
When I left the barracks and went around to a small hill, I sat on it, took some snacks and wine from the storage space, and ate it beautifully.
When he had filled his belly, Zhou Yuanqiang looked at the watch on his wrist, and the time seemed to be just right.
Looking up at the barracks, where the lights flickered from time to time. With a loud "boom", the entire surface seemed to tremble. A cloud of fire rose into the sky, in the dark of the night. It's so dazzling. In such a distant place, it seems that under the sweep of the explosion, houses are uprooted and broken to pieces under the shock wave.
"Chen Xun'an's technology is getting more and more powerful, this kind of equivalent explosion, who would have thought that it would be a time bomb to be created? .
Zhou Yuanqiang was also amazed by the power of the explosion, the faint roar in his ears, in front of the burning house, countless soldiers were running, looking for water everywhere to rescue. There were also soldiers who rushed out of the barracks with people under the shouts of the commander, as if they wanted to check whether it was an enemy attack.
Zhou Yuanqiang smiled, turned around and left, for him, the purpose had been achieved, Kosov had already received the first gift, there was no need to stay.
When I returned to the steel plant, I looked at the blast furnaces that had just begun to be erected in the dark night, and the rows of factories that had just begun to build the foundation. Zhou Yuanqiang just has an indescribable feeling, as if when he reached the end of the world, he also started little by little, right? In this Somalia. Can you become a legend yourself?
The next day, there was no doubt that the birth in the Kosov barracks was known throughout Mogadishu and soon spread to the various warlord organizations.
In fact, no one knows what is going on, but at least it is certain that the weapon in Linsov's hand was almost blown up. Rumor has it that there was an explosion in the arsenal. It's because they're too careless when they store guns.
And only Kosov himself knows, with just a little ammunition in the arsenal, can there be such a big explosion? Almost a third of the barracks were swept away.
A warlord who has lost his weapon, even if he still has six hundred men in his hands, but what is the use of that? What made Kosov's jaw drop even more was that his safe had disappeared without a sound, so mysterious that he wondered if the whole thing had been premeditated by the enemy, so that he could not detect it at all.
Originally, this incident was just an accident, but it was a big deal that Kosov himself had a little more heartache and bought some arms back, and the matter was settled.
But this time it doesn't seem to be
Shehad was well aware of the whole thing, and of course the people of Moga-shari were gone, and he was carrying a black suitcase. Secretly found in Hebenlmer's house.
As the legitimate government of Somalia in the United Nations. Although there are very few areas that rule Somalia, and even the president and his party are based in neighboring countries, it is enough to have an orthodox reputation. At least a few thousand peacekeepers in Mogadishu are on the side of the Somali government and can ensure the normal operation of the local government in Mogadishu.
As the nominal Supreme Commander of Mogadishu. Hebenlmer actually has a very strong government army in his hands, with only one battalion. In fact, the troops are nominally the supreme commander, but no one will obey his command. Since taking office, in the face of a complicated situation, he wisely chose to add a notch to the twelve, and said that reading is good to go outside. Because he was afraid that if he was not careful, he would be shot. Old ten valves. But you can do anything.
He didn't know a little person like Shehad, but as the number one subordinate of Merchant Zhou, Hebenlmo naturally knew him.
"I don't know what's the matter with me?.
Sitting on the comfortable sand, Hebenlmo waved off the servant, and after inviting Shehad to sit down, stared at the suitcase in Sheichard's hand and drooled. The last time the merchant came to deliver money, he also used this type of suitcase. For this, the price I paid was to support the successful signing of a series of agreements.
Shehad gently placed the suitcase on the coffee table. Then he opened it, revealing a box full of U.S. dollars, and said, "Here's a million U.S. dollars."
Hebenlmer's brows jumped, compared to the last time there was only a measly half a million dollars, this time it was half more. Even if Hebenlmo is already a lieutenant general, he has always been greedy for his own hands, and the sum is not enough for half a million dollars. But since I met Zhou Yuanqiang, just a small favor, I have 500,000 US dollars. This is the money that I only got in my own life.
Now in the face of a million dollars, it would be a lie to say that he was not impressed, at least Hebenlmo felt that his heartbeat was already increasing.
"Is my dear Zhou in trouble again?
Hebenlmer put his heart away and said, "As his friend, you know. I'm more than happy to help him solve some problems
Shehad is also an old man, of course, it is impossible to show his contempt on his face, but first respectful sentences, and then cut to the point. said: "I don't know if you've heard about it, general." There was a big explosion in the Kosov barracks last night
This, the message. Hebenlmer, of course, knew, and when he did, he was at odds with Kosov.
It's just that he doesn't understand at all, Kosov's barracks exploded, what does this have to do with Merchant Zhou?
Shehad saw Hebenlmer's bewildered expression. Explained: "In this big bang. Nearly destroyed Kosov's arsenal of weapons. I would like to follow the military regulations of our country. Kosov is to blame for this, and he is sanctioned by a military court. You know, our Government spends almost every penny on the purchase of weapons, which is the hard-earned money of our Somali people. However, because of Kosov's dereliction of duty, a large amount of the people's hard-earned money was destroyed, and it is difficult for the citizens to explain this matter
Hebenlmer's eyes lit up, and he sat up straight, and said, "This is what Zhou meant?."
Shehad laughed and said, "No. That is what a Somali citizen means. Because we believe that Kosov is incompetent, he should be removed from his post and subject to military sanctions. General, I think this matter is very simple. You, as the supreme governor of the whole of central Somalia, are fully capable of this
"But you know, Kosov, he won't listen to me
Looking at the box of money in the suitcase, Hebenlmer no longer cared that his timidity would attract the contempt of the other party, after all, the warlords here are very strong, and they are completely private armed in the name of the government, "Kosov, but there are two battalions of 600 people, but it is not easy to do."
Shekhad sneered: "A toothless tiger, is it still a tiger?" Don't forget, Kosov is a tiger with his teeth pulled out, and without weapons, their two battalions, even one under the general, can't even beat them, right? Therefore, this matter only needs the general to nod, and he can send someone to bring up Kosov
Hebenlmo seems to be really moved, a toothless tiger will only be a cat. What's more, the truth is on its side. He is his nominal governor, and outsiders can't say why. He gently closed the suitcase on the coffee table and said, "Go back and tell my dear Zhou that I will definitely deal with this matter, and I will definitely not let the people's hard-earned money be squandered by incompetent people like this."
But Shehad did not stand up, but took out a check from his pocket, gently pushed it in front of Hebenlmer, and said: "What our boss means, we also need to get Kosov's position." As long as the general agrees, once the boss takes office. Cheques can be cashed in no time
Hebenlmer raised the corner of his eye, first glanced at the number on the check, and suddenly the whole person trembled, because the check was five million dollars
Heavy breathing made Hebenlmer unable to calm down.
Think about it, how much does Somalia earn in a year? And the check in front of me is already a year's tax revenue in central Somalia. But such a huge fortune is in front of him. And all he needs to do is to use his position to turn a person into a major. This matter seems difficult, but it is definitely not impossible, and there is one more in the chaos of the military and political affairs in Somalia. When the major comes, as long as he does something himself, it is legal to cut the same thing.
Yes, Hebenlmer had no reason to refuse in this matter, but he couldn't understand that this businessman Zhou spent such a large price to be a major? Maybe he went to Somaliland, five million, enough to buy a general to be a general.
"But you have to know that Zhou Zhong is a Chinese, and our country is a country where national sentiment is very intense
Hebenlmer tried to refuse the temptation of this check, but Shekhad knew that he had agreed in his heart, and to the so-called reasons of Hebenlmer, Shekha, smiled, and said, "General, don't forget. My boss is a Somali citizen, he has the right to vote and has everything that a Somali citizen should have
"But in Parliament"
Shehad interrupted him and said, "The general can rest assured that our boss has already passed the gas with several other councilors, and this is not a problem. As long as the general nods your head, the check can be cashed, and no one will know anything at all. You know, our boss has contributed to the whole of Somalia, and the steel plant will provide more than 1,000 jobs for Somalia. And it will form an industrial chain
"What our boss means is that he wants to have an identity to protect his property, and I think you should understand it, general
Wait until Hebenlmer has accepted the check. Shehad also retired. He wasn't worried that Hebenlmer would do nothing, the check was genuine, but there was not a penny on the account on the other side of the check. All this will have to wait for the boss to take Kosov's place, and then the money will be remitted to the account where the check is located, and Hebenlmer will get the money.
Shehad didn't know why the boss would pay a lot of money to buy the rank of major, but he believed that it must have the boss's deep meaning.
Under Zhou Yuanqiang's silver bullet offensive, the impoverished Mogajang Saudi authorities in Somalia fell, after all, it seems that it is not a difficult thing to take a toothless Kosov. As for the appointment of a Chinese of Susovard nationality as a senior military officer, although there is no precedent, there is no provision in the constitution that it is not allowed, and similarly, it is not a big deal.
The poorer the place, the more **. This sentence. Nowhere is this more evident than in Somalia.
The hapless Kosov had not had time to replenish his weapons, and he did not expect that someone would do it at this time. When Hebenlmer's troops appeared in the barracks, Kosov realized that this explosion of the gun depot was a big conspiracy from beginning to end, and he was a victim of the conspiracy.
In the face of the heavily armed soldiers, the 600 unarmed people could only be concentrated and squatted on the training ground with their heads in their hands, while Kosov was taken away by the military police.
Kosov was indeed a victim, and he was shot and killed in the middle of the road before he was even brought back to Mogapansha. It was claimed that Kossov was shot dead by the gendarmes as he tried to escape. In the absence of evidence and no one has come forward. Things seem to be covered like that.
In order to get the money as soon as possible, Hebenlmer of course went through a series of procedures for Zhou Yuanqiang, including joining the army, etc., and was directly promoted to major on the grounds that he had made outstanding contributions to the local economy. He was responsible for the defense of the northeast side of Mogajan and served as the head of the autonomous regiment. nbsp; This promotion. Under the ventilation, no one jumped out to point fingers, so Zhou Yuanqiang became a senior military officer of the Somali government so secretly.
In fact, Hebenlmer so generously approved the two-sided defense work in the northeast of Mogadishu because for Mogadunsha, there is no such thing as defense at all, and it is just to scare people. Anyway, the factory of the Chamber of Commerce Week is just to the north, and to the east; nbsp; Joke, to the east is the Indian Ocean. What to defend against?
This series has no effect on the whole of Somalia, and the chaos of the warlords has long been known to these women.
Only Zhou Yuanqiang himself knows that he has taken this step. If you are a local, do not say that it costs so much, a million dollars, enough to get the rank of major. But as a Chinese who has just immigrated, he has to pay more for Somalia with a serious racial attitude.
Millions of dollars, in Zhou Yuanqiang's eyes. It's nothing, but the identity of this high-ranking government officer is what he needs most, because it is related to a series of plans. From another point of view, Zhou Yuanqiang doesn't care about the identity of a major in this district at all, but a higher and farther purpose; nbsp; Until in Somalia, he is no longer threatened by anyone, does not have to be hindered by anyone, and takes his destiny into his own hands.
The identity of this major is at best a springboard.
Now that you have an identity, of course there are a lot of things. It will become a matter of course, such as having its own legitimate armed forces.
But having armed forces is not one of Zhou Yuanqiang's purposes, his purpose is to be able to sell his arms to every corner of the world. However, the Somali industrial system, wanting to make heavy weapons, seems to be a joke, and it is impossible to use Somalia as a springboard to sell the warplanes and so on made in the Chamber of Commerce.
Therefore, in order to achieve the goal, the promotion of identity is one, with its own control of the territory, and it is also a "to show an industrial system that can be trusted." Therefore, Zhou Yuanqiang's road still has some time to go.
However, Zhou Yuanqiang believes that with the support of the Chamber of Commerce in the Last Days, it is not a problem to complete this series of construction, and all he needs is time.
The best way to be a great businessman, especially an arms dealer, is to do business in the name of the state under your own control. In this way, you have a banner that you can pull around, and it is absolutely profitable.
