King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer

'Medic Officer Bird' was subconsciously drawn into Joe Ga's relaxed context. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly realized something and said with some confusion, "Why do I feel like you're not at all afraid of getting into trouble?"

Joe Ga placed his right hand in a Wing Chun stance and exchanged a few moves with Danbao's long nose. As he walked, he laughed and said, "Big shots have a lot of dirty laundry, and only solid evidence can attract them to silence you, not just hearsay from someone.

I've never seen a real big shot taken down by 'rumors.' For them, silencing someone would actually be a foolish choice.

Only those with no way out would recklessly choose to 'silence' others.

Such people can only strut around in the political arena for a while, and generally, the louder they were while in power, the worse their downfall will be later.

People with only one way to solve problems will probably just stay that way for their entire life.

I think you might not have any reliable evidence in hand, or else you wouldn't need to hide out in Central Africa waiting for someone to find you, and then try to trace back to get revenge."

As he spoke, Joe Ga watched Danbao, who had become active like a jubilant golden retriever after leaving the restaurant. He sat down under a sunshade and said to 'Medic Officer Bird', "Seriously, tell me about Delta Force. I'm really curious to death.

I heard that people who retire from teams like yours generally choose to join large defense companies as consultants or continue serving in the military.

Do you have any reliable comrades or anything, could you introduce us? I'll soon be able to get a license from Americana International Defense Company, maybe we can cooperate by then."

Joe Ga had a way of looking at things that was different from most people, and he possessed an open and forthright nature that was very attractive.

His recent months of combat experience, combined with his own understanding of how to do things, not only made him confident but also changed the way he looked at the world.

Compared to 'Medic Officer Bird's' deep hatred and the hesitance displayed amidst conflicted decisions, Joe Ga instantly saw the problem.

He saw himself as a 'character,' when in fact what he thought of as his 'adversary' might not have cared about him at all.

Because the newspaper was from three years ago, if 'Medic Officer Bird' really intended to, his opponent would have been able to find him.

Therefore, the only three reasonable explanations were either his so-called opponent didn't care about him at all, or his so-called opponent was too incompetent to find him, or the guy was washed out by the complex political system.

Regardless of which one it was, Joe Ga wasn't scared!

Because the first type didn't have the time to bother with him, and he wasn't afraid of the latter two types challenging him.

Now, Joe Ga felt a mix of admiration and sympathy for 'Medic Officer Bird.' The guy was captured because he wanted to look after an injured comrade, faked his own death to get out because he sensed trouble, and 'hid his identity' to a less-than-perfect degree because he wanted to draw out the opponent to avenge a comrade who was driven to 'suicide.'

The guy was contradictory in his actions, complex in personality, capable, and loyal, yet he was caught in a 'conspiracy' that he couldn't extricate himself from, showing both contradiction and hesitation.

Joe Ga wasn't him, so he didn't know what he had faced. With just imagination, he couldn't understand the pain he went through being captured by terrorists, let alone what it felt like to face betrayal.

However, it was precisely because of this that Joe Ga thought 'Medic Officer Bird' was a flesh-and-blood normal person, not just a legend of Delta Force.

Faced with Joe Ga's enthusiastic invitation and questions, 'Medic Officer Bird' stood at the door for a long time, recalled what he had been through, and then he realized that what Joe Ga said might be right.

Joe Ga had a particular kind of open and transparent quality about him; he was straightforward in his speech and actions, which easily earned people's trust, and he felt that he might really need a bit of guidance.

Some things are not related to wisdom, but to the way one thinks. Maybe looking at things from a different angle could lead to the answer, and then end the days of helplessness and hesitation.

So...

5 years ago, 'Medic Officer Bird' and his teammates came to Central Africa, tracking a diamond smuggler who provided funding to terrorists into Chad.

It was supposed to be a secret capture mission—one where, as soon as the smuggler made contact with his connection, they would move in to arrest him.

However, when the smuggler they were surveilling met with an Arab person in Chad, and they just launched their operation from hiding, they got caught in a crossfire of a black-on-black conflict.

Both sides had unbelievable firepower and each thought they were the others' guys.

When the fight was over, their squad leader and another teammate fled with the diamonds and a briefcase containing important information.

The smuggler turned out to be the final victor, but he was also the one who suffered the most losses.

Upon discovering 'Medic Officer Bird' and his injured teammate, the smuggler, after flying into a rage, surprisingly did not kill them but instead sold them at a high price to the people from the Africa Branch of the base organization.

This guy was a real Businessman, realizing he had been targeted, and having already burned bridges, he chose to recover his losses as much as possible.

As for the anger of the two Delta Force members, who cared?

Then 'Medic Officer Bird' went through the most painful year of his life, watching his teammate be tortured to the point of a mental breakdown, watching those terrorists negotiate and finally break down in front of a middleman.

And then he realized that the Pentagon was not enthusiastic about rescuing him, because when the negotiations restarted after 8 months, it was because the terrorists felt they couldn't lose out, so they leaked the news of the two captured Delta Force members to the media.

Then the American media exploded, which led to the subsequent hostage exchange operation.

By then, 'Medic Officer Bird' didn't feel that his ordeal was related to the previous operation. He just felt that he had seen through the officials' ways, so during the exchange of prisoners, he cooperated with his comrade to sabotage that mission to save themselves, then chose to fake his death to escape under his teammate's cover, wanting to start a new life.

'Medic Officer Bird' died, and his comrade became a hero. After returning, he was widely publicized by the media, received promotions and salary raises, and was awarded medals. He accepted interviews and wrote memoirs.

Then, one day, 'Medic Officer Bird' suddenly saw the news of his comrade's suicide online. Only then did he realize that the problem might have originated from that mission.

After that, he began planning his revenge, but he had no idea who to target.

If the other party was powerful, he would be unlucky to openly investigate upon returning to the United States, probably without even the power to strike back.

So he chose to hide in Central Africa and occasionally used his understanding of America's intelligence systems to leak information in a subtle and elusive manner.

But for three years, he had waited for nothing!

The story of 'Medic Officer Bird' was not complicated. After listening, Joe Ga tried hard to think of it in terms of a political thriller, but in the end, he realized that such a notion might not be reliable.

Dorian, with a short banana in his mouth acting as a pipe, put on a Sherlock Holmes-like demeanor and said, "They definitely carried out a black op. There was a problem with the mission, and it involved a big shot, so they all had to be silenced."

Joe Ga, looking at Dorian's foolish appearance, snatched the rubber stopper from his hand and gave it to the never-tranquil Danbao, then turned to 'Medic Officer Bird' and said, "Have you ever considered that maybe your two comrades took the diamonds, went back, and claimed the mission failed?

Didn't you try to find them?"

'Medic Officer Bird' was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head bitterly and said, "I've called their families. They 'disappeared.'"

According to Delta Force's practice, 'disappearing' personnel are arranged to go undercover in some country, preparing to covertly organize and promote a coup, or trying to assassinate or capture a high-value target.

I can't find them!!

But it's been three years, and there's still no word from them. Maybe they already..."

After hearing this, Joe Ga slightly shook his head and said, "If you could fake your death and escape under those circumstances, your teammates should not be worse than you. They should have realized the danger even earlier.

Following the police's investigative logic, those two teammates of yours and the CIA agent are the prime suspects.

You don't push in that direction, but rather passively wait like a little girl in a bar to be picked up. Isn't that a bit too un-Delta Force?"

Joe Ga looked at 'Medic Officer Bird's' disbelieving expression, shook his head, and said, "I think I understand your reasoning. You believe that your comrades' disappearance is more likely to be ill-fated.

But even if they're not in trouble, what about that CIA agent?"

As he spoke, Joe Ga rubbed his chin, unable to contain his curiosity, and took out his phone to call Chris Jansen, an intelligence broker he hadn't contacted in a long time.

"Hello Chris, this is Hu Lang."

Chris, on the other end, hearing Joe Ga's voice, smiled and said, "Hi, Hu Lang, how have you been recently?

Have you come to your senses? Nigeria, Mali, and Niger are all stirring up now. It's a good time for arms dealers."

Joe Ga was stunned for a moment before shaking his head and saying, "I don't do business with terrorists.

Plus, I've met a high-ranking Nigerian who has my business card."

Upon hearing this, Chris replied disappointingly, "Hu Lang, this is big business. You can't always want to deal with government forces. They need more than just arms, and you can't supply the rest.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Even if you don't consider terrorists, you might think about the rebel forces; they also have a lot of money.

There's a guy named Aaron who's been really active in Nigeria lately. He's made at least fifty million US dollars from there."

Suddenly, Joe Ga pictured a man in a wheelchair, then laughed and said, "Haven't you competed with that wheelchair-bound Aaron?"

Chris was taken aback, then incredulously said, "You actually know Aaron?

That guy hardly ever shows his face. Tell me the truth, are you with him?

If that's the case, we can collaborate."

Joe Ga was amused by Chris, laughing heartily and saying, "Chris, you're definitely not as impressive as you claim to be.

Otherwise, you would have known that Aaron appeared at the Tunisia Business Expo, and what he did wasn't very honorable."

As Joe Ga spoke, he heard Chris respond despondently, "Okay, I admit I've had some setbacks in my Africa business recently. The arms dealers I found either lack strength or courage.

Are you sure you won't reconsider my proposal? How long will it take for you to earn ten million from your iron mines in Central Africa?

Right now, in Nigeria, the price of a bullet has increased to 3 US dollars."

Joe Ga replied cheerily, "I'm starting to doubt your capabilities. I'm going to send something to your email. Help me check on the recent situation of the people in it.

Buddy, your reputation in my mind has plummeted. If you can't handle this small task, don't talk to me about a 5% commission discount anymore. Slash it by half."
