Chapter 340: The Last Struggle

No sooner had Brooks walked to the door than his phone rang.

As soon as he looked at the number, his whole body became stiff because of nervousness.

It's Berry. Mr. Crane's number.

Just thinking about it, this call came straight over!

It's too fast, it's so fast, it's too fast to react to. The only explanation that can be so fast is that after Zhou Yang's phone call, the entire Millican high-level immediately became in an uproar!

Brooks swallowed, took a deep breath, and calmed down, before picking up his phone and calling respectfully, "Hello, Mr. Crane." ”

"General, do you have time to say a few words to me, an old man?"

Brooks broke out in a cold sweat at that time.

The first time I called, Berry. Crane still went around a relationship, from the West Point graduate relationship called Brooks a junior, although the two were twenty years apart, but when needed, this is the relationship between the porcelain, how many people want to climb the relationship with Mr. Besuckland can't climb the relationship.

But now, Senior Lei Lin has become a general, and he has traveled eight miles with one stroke, and he has changed from his own person to an outsider at once.

"Mr. Crane, I, I, I ......"

"General, I'm just a businessman, I'm just looking for someone to look for you, I'm not interested, and I have to be tired of you going to the CIA to investigate, it's because I can't stand you......"

"Mr. Crane, I'm not ......"

"General, that's all for this time. According to the above meaning, I was originally going to take you down and find someone to do this thing for you, but I thought about how to say that we are also alumni, you were found by me, and if something happened to you, I also have the responsibility to do it, so I pleaded with the above, and then you will do it, and do a good job of defending Miss Li Xueyin, so as to ensure that she can inherit the Tianxing Group smoothly, and you can make up for it. General, do things well, and don't think about inquiring about what you shouldn't know......"

Brooks' blood almost clotted all over his body, and fear kept him from breathing.

Berry. Crane, who was the financial emperor of Millican, was known to be one of the most powerful figures in Millican's most powerful circles. Crane is now one bite at a time!

Who else would be more powerful in Milicon than Berwickland to enlist Berry. Crane is like an envoy?

Brooks couldn't help but think of some specious legends that he had heard before. Legend has it that Millican ruled under a very secret clique, and the so-called donkey elephant party and the so-called capitalist tycoons were nothing more than agents pushed out by this group.

The group was once rumored to be the Freemasonry and then the Skull and Bones Society, but Brooks knew, like Berry. A big guy like Crane, even if there is really a Skull and Bones Guild or a Freemasonic rule, he can only be a big man in the matter, a ruler who makes decisions, not a character who obeys orders.

Now, Berry. Crane also had to ask with humility, and this was the true ruler of Milek.

In Brooks' view, the big men who need to look up to the clouds are nothing more than envoys prostrate at the feet of the true ruler.

Inadvertently, Brooks touches the most untouchable secrets of the Millican Empire.

But the cost of touching this secret is probably beyond his reach.

Until Berry. It wasn't until Crane said what it was like to make a guarantee for him to continue the mission, and Brooks' blood, which had been clotted by fear, flowed again.

Life seemed to come back into his body with it.

"Thank you, thank you, Mr. Crane, I promise that I will complete this task perfectly, I promise ...... with my life"

Brooks choked up with excitement, and felt like he had escaped death.

"General, in this matter, no, it should be said that in front of this person, your life is worthless, so you don't need to promise me, you do your best, if you fail, it will not only end your personal life, because I will also be angry because of it, and before I lose everything, I will definitely pass this anger to your level!"

Although it was a tough threat, Brooks heard the fear and weakness in it!

Top bigwigs of the shell. Mr. Rickland is also afraid!

Brooks thought about the chatty phone call that Zhou Yang made casually.

A phone call made the entire Millican Empire feel fear, what kind of character is this!

Even in the most arrogant fantasies, Brooks would not dare to resemble the existence of such a character, or the existence of such a power!

Berry. Crane hung up the phone, but the sound still seemed to echo through the room.

Brooks stood alone in the dark, holding the phone so tightly in his hand that he had forgotten to take it off his ear, as if he was still listening to Berry. Crane's fear.

Suddenly, as if awakened from a dream, he called again.

The first call was to his wife, Jenna. Brooks is currently the most famous philanthropic activist in Asia and the initiator of several well-known philanthropic NGOs.

The charity dinner the day after tomorrow was held by Jenna to promote her newly launched charity foundation, inviting upper-class people, famous performing arts stars, and religious figures from Asian countries.

There will be celebrity performances, charity auctions, and after-dinner revelries.

The main reason for being able to be so strong is, of course, that she has a husband who is like an emperor in South Korea, and the other reason is that she herself was born in a British aristocratic family and has a noble title that makes countless people blush, and on the other hand, Brooks can finally become the commander of the US forces in South Korea, which is also inseparable from Jenna's upper-level relationship.

"Jenna, listen to me now, there is a person, Miss Li Xueyin of the Tianxing Group, who will go to the dinner the day after tomorrow, I want you to arrange an opportunity to introduce Miss Li Xueyin to everyone, and show your intimacy with Miss Li Xueyin. Well, you fly over tomorrow and meet Miss Li Xueyin. Whatever you do, let it go! No, no, there are some things in this that I can't say to you, but trust me, if we do it well this time, we will reap unimaginable benefits! Yes, nothing else is important at this dinner, the most important thing is to show that you and Miss Li Xueyin are close officials, if you can put on some world friendships and so on...... I know, I understand that her family background is not enough to have a relationship with your family, but now just her is enough! ”

Jenna. Brooks couldn't understand her husband's arrangement.

She also knew about the Tianxing Group's property dispute, after all, it was so big. But even if her husband wants to show his support for Li Xueyin, he doesn't need to show any intimacy, let alone mention what kind of world friends! Just kidding, why should the daughter of a little Asian tyrant have a relationship with her, a noble nobleman of the British Empire, if this is passed back to England, she will be laughed at and killed!

But she and Leylin. It was the first time in Brooks' twenty years of marriage that she had heard her husband ask her to do something in such an eager and pleading tone, and she heard fear, uncontrollable fear.

What could have frightened the arrogant Brooks in her eyes?

It can't be Li Xueyin, it's just a little Asian tyrant!

No matter how high the market value of Tianxing Group is, it is nothing.

Money is Sarasota's giant mansion with a shelf life of only ten years, and power is an ancient stone building that can stand for hundreds of years.

The only thing that can put so much pressure on her husband is from China. The bloodthirsty wolves of Wall Street have set their sights on the Star Group. But they can participate in the Tianxing Group's property competition, they can persuade Capitol Hill and the White House, and they can lobby the Pentagon, but they can't directly put pressure on their husbands!

What is it that scares Brooks so much?

Jenna couldn't figure it out, but the fear was real, as a wife, she had to stand on the same side with her husband to fight this fear, "Okay, I'll go to you tomorrow and meet this Miss Li Xueyin." Leylin, rest well, if there is anything we have to say, we'll talk about it tomorrow! ”

General Brooks breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't dare to rest, and immediately dialed a second call.

The call was made to the commander of the Mi Army in Japan, Haque. Underwood.

Jenna was able to use Tokyo as the main base of her charity activities, naturally because of Underwood's endorsement.

As the Emperor of Japan, the occupation forces of the victors of World War II against the losers, the power of the Mi Army stationed in Japan to interfere in Japan's internal affairs is far greater than that of the Mi Army in Korea over South Korea. For example, the Mi-mi Army stationed in Japan can directly decide on the choice of the Japanese prime minister, but the Mi-mi Army stationed in South Korea does not have the power to decide on the choice of the ROK president.

It's just that in recent years, Mirican has influenced Japan's economy and politics in a more tactful way, and has not used the simple and crude intervention of the garrison, which has made many people almost forget this privilege of the Japanese army.

However, Japanese politicians will never and dare not forget it.

"Huck, it's me, my wife will hold a charity dinner the day after tomorrow, I hope you can bring your wife to attend, by the way, let Prime Minister Hashimoto also attend, if Prime Minister Hashimoto is willing to invite more people to attend, it will be better."

Underwood and Brooks are classmates at West Point, and they are comrades-in-arms on the battlefield in Iraq, the only difference is that Brooks was born from the grassroots and married his current wife to have the opportunity to step into the real upper circle, while Underwood is a playboy from a family, although he failed in West Point and many subjects, it did not prevent him from graduating with honors, although he escaped several times in Iraq, but it did not prevent him from finally getting the medal, although he messed up every time he served anywhere, but it did not prevent him from rising all the way, It is said that his next step has been arranged, and in the near future, he will take over the current post of Pacific Commander and become one of the truly top few big men in the Mi Army.

In the past, Underwood's family was the height that Brooks had always looked up to and hoped to reach, and he once thought that reaching the heights of Underwood's family was stepping into the real top circle of Millican.

But now, he has no idea of the Underwood family, because he sees the real unattainable height, and the Underwood family is nothing more than an insignificant ant under people's feet!

Hearing Brooks' request, Underwood laughed on the phone, which seemed too frivolous compared to his identity, "Leylin, it's just a charity dinner, even if it's important to your wife, what can it be?" Are you really going to use my favor for this? I originally wanted to recommend you to take my place, not only the commander of the Mi Army in Japan, but I will go to the Pentagon in three years at the latest, and I have already been assigned a position in the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and the old guys have already decided on it. Lei Lin, as long as you follow the path I have walked, you can reach heights that countless people can't reach in a lifetime! ”

Underwood said this because he owed Brooks a big deal. On the battlefield in Iraq, when he was about to escape, he was shot in the ass and almost captured, but Brooks escaped with him on his back.

Although Underwood is a playboy who has more than enough success and more than failure, but there is a little benefit, he is righteous and misses the old love, Brooks has a life-saving grace for him, he has always wanted to repay him, he has never forgotten to repay, he personally said that as long as Brooks speaks, no matter what, he will do his best to do it, but this can only do his best once, in order to repay his life-saving grace, of course, it does not affect the friendship between the two.

It's just that Brooks hasn't asked for anything, and the matter has been delayed, and Underwood has now stepped into a high-level position and has the ability to help Brooks, so he wants to arrange for him to follow his own path, and eventually enter the Pentagon like him and become one of the top figures in Milley's strong army.

But he never expected that as soon as he made this calculation, Brooks suddenly made such an inconsequential request in a solemn tone.

Although it was a bit of a joke, Underwood didn't think that such a trivial matter could be worth saving his life, but it was precisely because he didn't understand Brooks's solemnity that he said it.

"Huck, it's important to me, and whatever comes in exchange, I have to do it. When the time comes, I will introduce you to Miss Lee Xue-yin of South Korea Tianxing Group, and I hope you can stand with me! ”

"Oh, what benefits did this Miss Li Xueyin promise you? As far as I know, Li Zhaojian of the Tianxing Group promised 60% of the equity of the Tianxing Group to the Mitsui Consortium, can this Miss Li Xueyin still give you the entire Tianxing Group? So what else is she fighting for? ”

"Huck! Can you help me? ”

"Don't you take it so seriously, Leylin!" Underwood whistled lightly, "Okay, okay, since you speak, then I'll just go then, well, isn't it the bigger the scene, the better, the more people, the better?" You want to praise this Miss Li Xueyin, right, then I'll tell the old man Hashimoto, let several Japanese chaebols and families come to participate, it's all right. ”

"Thank you so much, Huck, anyway, I made a note of it."

Brooks thanked Underwood, thought for a moment, and dialed the third number again.

This time, it was for President Roh Tae-woo!
