Chapter 326 [326] Comrade Yaowen, your contribution deserves all the praise. You deserve all the praise.

The KGB is the most mysterious department in the Bear Country, no doubt about it.

After decades of development, this intelligence department has expanded into a super agency consisting of more than 20 bureaus, with 500,000 staff members and millions of informants.

The KGB’s powers cover intelligence, engineering, education, and even medical and military construction. It even has a secret army of up to 200,000 people. A KGB agent can spend his or her entire life from birth to death in a KGB agency.

This super agency is more like a country within a country than a department.

It is precisely because of this that a huge amount of funds is needed to maintain this super agency. The KGB’s official funding alone costs 10 billion US dollars each year. If other shady expenses are added, the funding is definitely the highest of all departments in the Bear Country.

During the heyday of the Soviet Union, supporting such a super organization was naturally a piece of cake, but in 1990 when the Soviet Union was about to collapse, the KGB also needed to raise funds on its own.

This gave Lu Yaowen an excellent opportunity. Otherwise, it would not be easy to meet a KGB general, especially since he was the deputy director of the Second General Bureau.

You should know that the two most powerful bureaus of the KGB are the First Chief Bureau and the Second Chief Bureau. Every KGB chairman and first deputy chairman are the directors of these two chief bureaus.

More than an hour later, after three body searches, Lu Yaowen met the current deputy director of the KGB’s Second Directorate, Kloshko.

Unlike the image of an old man in Lu Yaowen’s mind, Kloshko is no more than fifty years old. In the country of Russia where gerontocracy prevails, this admiral is definitely a “young hero”.

“Hello, Mr. Kloshko, I am Lu Yaowen.”

Lu Yaowen smiled.

“Mr. Lu, I heard that you have a $100 million business deal that you want us to discuss?”

Kloshko got straight to the point.

“Yes, I need you to help my woman’s brother take the position of mayor of Zaporizhia.”

Lu Yaowen did not hide anything and directly stated his purpose.

He knew very well that with the KGB’s infiltration into the Soviet Union, his relationship with Galitsky must have been exposed, and there was no need to conceal it.

“A mayor’s position is not worth $100 million.”

Kloshko shook his head and laughed.

“I need him to be in control of everything in Zaporizhia.”

Lu Yaowen continued to add.

“That $100 million is not enough.”

Kloshko also continued to shake his head and laugh.

To completely control the city of Zaporil, the tacit consent and cooperation of the highest leaders of the Ermao region must be obtained. Obviously, Kloshko heard the implication of Lu Yaowen’s words.

“Mr. Kloshko, please give me an offer.”

Lu Yaowen said slowly.

“Two hundred million dollars.”

Kloshko was very straightforward and directly quoted the KGB’s price.

“it is good.”

Lu Yaowen was also very straightforward and nodded in agreement.

“I will instruct our people to do the work, and you can pay me after it is done.”

Just looking at the smile on Kloshko’s face, you can tell that he is very satisfied with the deal.

As for Lu Yaowen not paying after the work was done? The KGB never worried about someone defaulting on their payment.

“Mr. Kloshko, the situation here is not good. Do you have any plans for the future?”

After talking about the things in Ermao area, Lu Yaowen began to talk to Kloshko about the real business of the day.

If he could reach a cooperation with the powerful figures in the KGB, Lu Yaowen could get more benefits in the Bear Country.

“Mr. Lu, who are you talking to me on behalf of?”

After hearing Lu Yaowen’s question, Kloshko’s smile faded, he glanced at Lu Yaowen and asked.

“Myself.”

Lu Yaowen answered truthfully.

“As a businessman, is it necessary for you to cooperate with me?”

The expression on Kloshko’s face became calmer.

“This great country is about to collapse. At this time, even an ordinary person, as long as he seizes the opportunity, may be able to soar into the sky, let alone you, a senior KGB official.”

When Lu Yaowen said this, he paused slightly and looked at Kloshko.

“Mr. Lu, please continue.”

The expression on Kloshko’s face remained calm.

Lu Yaowen did not say anything else, but took out an exquisite box from his clothes and slowly pushed it in front of Kloshko.

Kloshko took a deep look at the box in front of him, then slowly picked it up.

Lu Yaowen had been searched three times, and anything he brought in was absolutely safe. But Kloshko was very curious about what this guy Lu Yaowen could use to impress him.

“…”

The moment he opened the box, Kloshko’s pupils shrank sharply. Inside the box was a crown made of sapphires, rubies and diamonds.

It was one of the three pieces of Russian royal jewels that Lu Yaowen had obtained from the Cointreau Hotel.

“Mr. Kloshko, I love making friends. If you need an amount below 10 million US dollars, you can always contact my people to withdraw it.”

“If you really reach a critical moment, I’m willing to pay for you $50 million or even $100 million.”

Lu Yaowen did not say “price”. He knew that for a smart man like Kloshko, he would understand halfway through the words.

“Mr. Lu, you think so highly of me?”

Kloshko raised his eyebrows, a hint of curiosity flashing in his eyes.

“To be honest, Mr. Kloshko, I support you so much only because you hold the highest position among the people I know in the Bear Country. I shouldn’t be able to find a better target to invest in in a short period of time.”

After the collapse of the KGB in the Bear Country, the fates of its top leaders were extremely polarized. Those who were loyal to the Bear Country either died accidentally or became ordinary people from then on.

Those who jumped jobs and followed the top leaders of the Mao country all became very successful, and the best one even became an emperor.

Lu Yaowen just said that the Russian Bear Country is about to collapse, which was a test for Kloshko. This admiral didn’t even consider him, which shows that he actually has no loyalty to the Russian Bear Country.

As long as this kind of person is given enough support, he will definitely be able to stand out in the new Mao government.

“Hahaha, Mr. Lu, I like your straightforwardness.”

Kloshko laughed loudly, and then snapped the box containing the crown shut. “Mr. Lu, this thing is very valuable to me now, and I will never forget the help any friend has given me.”

At this moment, Kloshko and Lu Yaowen smiled at each other.

One of them found his own ally in Russia, so that he could reap more benefits when the Russian Bear Country collapses in the future; the other one found a big financial sponsor for himself, so that he could accumulate more political resources and climb higher when the Russian Bear Country collapses.

It can be said that the two of them got what they needed.

“Mr. Kloshko, there is one more thing I need your help with.”

Lu Yaowen was not polite and made another request.

“Mr. Lu, please speak.”

Lu Yaowen’s benefits were so generous that Kloshko responded immediately without hesitation.

“I need some agents who are proficient in assassination to help me. In addition, I need you to cooperate with me in Eagle Country and Southeast Asia.”

Lu Yaowen said in a low voice.

MI6 is indeed a veteran intelligence organization. After being caught off guard by Xiao Qi and others, it took them less than half a month to gain a foothold, causing Xiao Qi and others’ assassination efforts to suffer many setbacks.

If the KGB, the nemesis of MI6, takes action, Lu Yaowen believes that he can give those people in MI6 a “big surprise”.

Moreover, Lu Yaowen had no intention of “returning” these KGB agents. As long as time passed, the Russian Bear Country would collapse, and then Lu Yaowen could naturally keep these elite KGB agents.

“no problem.”

Kloshko agreed to Lu Yaowen’s request without hesitation.

Even though the KGB was weakening, MI6 was little more than a toy in the eyes of the KGB.

“Mr. Kloshko, it’s really nice to chat with you. I hope we can keep in touch often in the future.”

After finishing the business, Lu Yaowen stood up, said goodbye to Kloshko and left.

After Lu Yaowen left, Kloshko called his trusted secretary to him and said, “Notify the person in charge of Ermao District and tell them…”

Compared with the Angolans, the Russians are much more trustworthy.

“Okay, Your Excellency!”

Kloshko’s secretary nodded immediately.

“Also, you will directly contact the people Lu Yaowen left here in the future. Apart from the two of us, I don’t want a third person in the KGB to know the relationship between Lu Yaowen and me.”

Kloshko warned.

“clear.”

Kloshko’s secretary nodded heavily.

After instructing his secretary on these two things, Kloshko waved his hand, signaling the secretary to leave.

After his secretary left, Kloshko reopened the box containing the crown and looked at the beautiful crown again: “Lu Yaowen, I hope you can bring me good luck.”

After saying this softly, Kloshko picked up the phone in front of him and dialed a number.

……

On the other side, after leaving the office building where Kloshko was, Lu Yaowen got into a car directly.

“Brother Wen, is the matter done?”

Song Zihao asked.

“Ah.”

Lu Yaowen nodded slightly, and then continued: “Go to the airport.”

“Okay, Mr. Lu.”

Niu Zhongzhi, who was sitting in the driver’s seat, immediately nodded in response.

“Jimmy, you stay here. Kloshko will send someone to contact you. Remember, don’t be stingy with this man. Whatever he needs, as long as we can do it, we will satisfy him.”

“He’s a smart man. Whatever he takes from us, he will give back in other ways.”

Lu Yaowen said slowly.

“Okay, Brother Wen.”

Jimmy nodded immediately.

“Old Cow, you will have to work hard for a while. Cooperate with Jimmy and I will not treat you unfairly.”

After giving instructions to Jimmy, Lu Yaowen looked at Niu Zhongqi who was driving and said with a smile.

“Mr. Lu, don’t worry. If you give me such a high reward as Lao Niu, I will definitely work hard to help you.”

The only thing that matters is driving, otherwise you would definitely have to pat your chest.

During the past six months, he helped Lu Yaowen and not only earned a generous salary, but also got to know many important people in the Bear Country. In Niu Qizhong’s eyes, these connections were more important than money.

Soon, the car drove to the airport gate, and after showing the KGB pass, it drove smoothly all the way to Lu Yaowen’s “transfer”.

“Jimmy, I’ll have to work hard for you from now on. Don’t forget what I asked you to do in the Bear Country.”

After saying this, Lu Yaowen took Song Zihao on the plane.

Jimmy watched the plane that Lu Yaowen was on disappear into the sky before turning to Niu Zhongqi and saying, “Let’s go.”

“Jimmy…”

Before Niu Qizhong could finish his words, Jimmy interrupted him in broken Mandarin: “My name is Li Jiayuan.”

“Mr. Li, what should we do next?”

Niu Qizhong immediately changed his words.

“Let’s go back to the company and meet my new subordinates first.”

Lu Yaowen assigned Jimmy several tasks. The first task was to completely control the company of the Bear Country in Jimmy’s hands.

“Okay, Mr. Li.”

Niu Qizhong’s eyes moved slightly, and he completely understood what Jimmy meant, and his tone became more respectful.

He was not afraid of Jimmy, but of Lu Yaowen. Niu Qizhong did not dare to have any evil thoughts towards Jimmy, the ‘imperial envoy’ sent by Lu Yaowen.

A few hours later, Lu Yaowen’s private plane landed at the military airport of the Odessa Military Region.

“Lu, long time no see.”

As soon as Lu Yaowen got off the plane, Galitsky, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately came up to him, hugged Lu Yaowen tightly, and said with a smile.

The relationship between this cheap father-in-law and son-in-law is different from most father-in-law and son-in-law relationships in the world. They are more like good friends rather than father-in-law and son-in-law.

“Ivan, I was planning to bring Milana back with me this time, but her belly is getting bigger, and I’m afraid she won’t be able to handle the long flight.”

Lu Yaowen explained to Galitsky with a smile.

“It’s okay, I’ll be happier next time if you bring Milana and her child back with you.”

Hearing Lu Yaowen’s words, the smile on Galitsky’s face became even brighter.

The biggest achievement of the marriage between the two forces is children, especially sons. Milana gave birth to a son for Lu Yaowen, and then Galitsky could fight for Lu Yaowen’s power in the Bear Country for his grandson.

He believed that Lu Yaowen, a smart man, would definitely pass on his power in the Bear Country to his and Milana’s child. In this way, he, Galitsky and Lu Yaowen would really be a family, and at least in the Bear Country, there would be no estrangement.

“Brother Wen.”

After Lu Yaowen greeted Galitsky, Mark, who had greeted Song Zihao, also walked up to Lu Yaowen and greeted him.

“Mark, you’ve worked hard during this period. I’m going back to Hong Kong Island this time and I’m going to take Ah Hao with me. Do you want to go back and take a vacation as well?”

Lu Yaowen asked with a smile.

“Brother Wen, there are new situations here every day, so I’d better stay here.”

Mark shook his head and refused.

“Hahaha, Brother Wen, Mark has a girlfriend here and they are very much in love now. He definitely doesn’t want to go back to Hong Kong Island.”

Song Zihao laughed out loud.

“That’s because I don’t understand romance.”

A bright smile also appeared on Lu Yaowen’s face.

“Anna is not a Mao girl, she also has Chinese ancestry, okay?”

Mark explained helplessly.

There are many ethnic groups on the Russian side, including Tatars, Slavs, and Mongolians. Many of them are mixed-race. Especially in these places along the Black Sea coast, which were once places where the Tatars traded slaves, there were also very few Chinese slaves among them, leaving behind some Chinese mixed-race children.

“Yes, yes, Mark, you found a Chinese girl.”

Song Zihao suppressed his laughter and nodded in response.

Only in front of his old brother Mark would Song Zihao be so relaxed and natural.

After some greetings, Lu Yaowen got into Galitsky’s car.

“Ivan, what is the current situation in Krafke?”

After getting in the car, Lu Yaowen went straight to the point.

“With a big money sponsor like you waving U.S. dollars to help, his situation is much better now than it was half a month ago. He can now fight Antonovich on equal terms.”

Galitsky answered immediately.

“I have already spent a lot of money to hire the KGB to help. It should be able to help Krafke win before the official election.”

Lu Yaowen said slowly.

“…”

After hearing that Lu Yaowen asked the KGB to take action, Galitsky’s eyes moved slightly. After a moment’s silence, he said, “Lu, you have done so much for Krafke, you must let him know.”

“Ivan, I was just about to tell you that you should accompany me to the Ki Mansion tomorrow. I want to meet Mr. Krafke in person.”

Lu Yaowen smiled slightly and said slowly.

“it is good!”

Galitsky nodded slightly.

“Ivan, I hope you can let Andrei leave the military district office and become a regiment commander.”

After Lu Yaowen finished talking about Krafke, he continued.

“why?”

Andrei is Galitsky’s second son and now serves as a lieutenant colonel staff officer in the Ossad Military District.

“After the collapse of the Bear Country, it will not be able to support so many troops. At that time, there will be a large-scale reduction in the army. Let Andre go to the grassroots level in advance and control a force that obeys his command. Then I will let them shine.”

The regular army of the Bear Country can only be described as a dimensionality reduction attack when it is placed in places like Southeast Asia. Especially since the commander of this army is Lu Yaowen’s cheap brother-in-law. As long as the Galitsky family is given enough benefits, this army will be trustworthy.

“…”

After listening to Lu Yaowen’s words, Galitsky pondered for a moment, then slowly said: “I have several confidants in the Odessa Military Region who I can fully trust. I will send two of them to the front line to serve as regiment leaders.”

Galitsky has complete trust in Lu Yaowen. Since Lu Yaowen needs the help of the army, he will provide more help to Lu Yaowen. Only when Lu Yaowen earns more, can he earn more.

“Ivan, thank you for your cooperation. I will cooperate with you to set up a mercenary company, and half of the company’s profits will belong to you.”

Lu Yaowen was very satisfied with what Galitsky had just said.

The Bear Country is a typical army country. Unlike the regiments in the Eagle Country, a regiment in the Bear Country has as many as 1,500 combatants.

With the strength of three regiments of the Russian regular army, they can easily move around in Southeast Asia and Africa.

“Lu, you are so polite. We are a family.”

Although Galitsky said this, his mouth, which was harder to suppress than AK’s, had already “spoken” his true feelings.

That evening, Galitsky prepared a grand welcoming banquet for Lu Yaowen. Not only were all his family members present, but even a dozen of Galitsky’s close associates were called over.

Obviously, Galitsky wanted to formally explain Lu Yaowen to everyone in his power and let them know the position of Lu Yaowen in Galitsky’s heart.

Because there were too many participants in the welcoming banquet, it caused Lu Yaowen a lot of trouble. That night, Lu Yaowen drank at least three kilograms of wine. Fortunately, Lu Yaowen had amazing physical fitness, otherwise he would definitely not be able to get out of bed the next day.

The next morning.

“…”

Looking at Galitsky with a refreshed face, Lu Yaowen had only two words in his mind: admiration.

He remembered very clearly that his cheap father-in-law drank no less alcohol than him, Lu Yaowen, last night. As a result, he was in better spirits than him. Apart from racial talent, Lu Yaowen could not find any other reason.

“Lu, at this point, you should be able to tell me, what is your purpose in helping that guy Krafke so hard, besides helping Alexander become the mayor of Zaporizhia?”

Lu Yaowen invested hundreds of millions of dollars in Krafke’s election. Galitsky didn’t think that a mayor could get rid of Lu Yaowen.

“Ivan, we are a family now. I will not hide it from you. I have a very good relationship with the mainland. In addition to helping Alexander become the mayor of Zaporizhia, I am also planning to bring back several of the most advanced fighter jets currently in service in the Bear Country.”

Lu Yaowen directly stated his second purpose without any concealment.

After hearing what Lu Yaowen said, Galitsky did not speak again, but just nodded slightly. This made sense. He believed that those fighter jets should be able to allow Lu Yaowen to obtain generous rewards from the mainland.

“Ivan, this plane is loaded with two tons of gold. I will give it to Krafke when the time comes.”

Galitsky, who had just “solved the doubt”, once again looked at Lu Yaowen with disbelief, his eyes revealing three words: “Why?”

“Ivan, I told you before that once the Mao Bear collapses, Er Mao will most likely become an independent country.”

“But strictly speaking, Ermao does not have the conditions to become a country, because everything in it is built to support the industrial system of the entire Mao Bear Country.”

“I can conclude that Ermao will not be at peace for the next few decades. We need to seize the opportunity and spread our influence thoroughly. And all this requires Krafck’s cooperation.”

“Ivan, believe me, we will get back several times, or even dozens of times, the investment in Krafke in the future. What you need to do now is to find wives for your three sons as soon as possible and build a political alliance.”

Lu Yaowen spoke slowly, word by word. At first, Lu Yaowen really just wanted to eat some oil in the Bear Country and then upgrade to eat some meat. After establishing relationships with people like Galitsky, Krafke, and Kloshko, Lu Yaowen had greater ambitions for the Bear Country.

“…”

After hearing what Lu Yaowen said, Galitsky’s face darkened. After pondering for a few seconds, he slowly nodded.

Soon, the plane that Lu Yaowen was on arrived at the Kiemba Airport.

“Lu, my good friend, you don’t know how much I miss you.”

After Lu Yaowen walked out of the airport, an “old acquaintance” immediately came up to him, hugged him and said these corny words.

It was the arms dealer, Yuri Orlov.

“Damn it Yuri, you haven’t showered in a few days, why do you stink so badly?”

Lu Yaowen pushed Yuri Orlov away and complained with a look of disgust.

“That’s impossible. I just took a shower yesterday and sprayed perfume on my way out!”

Yuri Orlov sniffed his armpits and immediately denied it.

Lu Yaowen ignored Yuri Orlov’s denial, looked at Krafke’s son-in-law Ping Qiuke standing beside him, and said with a smile: “Mr. Ping Qiuke, long time no see.”

“Long time no see, Mr. Lu.”

A smile also appeared on Ping Qiuke’s face. He had a very good attitude towards Lu Yaowen, the big money sponsor, and did not behave like a “rich son-in-law” at all.

“Hello, Mr. Pinchok.”

Lu Yaowen also showed a polite smile on his face.

“Father has prepared a welcome banquet for you. Please follow me.”

After Ping Qiuke exchanged a few words with Lu Yaowen, he took Lu Yaowen into the car.

“Mr. Lu, how long do you plan to stay in Ji Mansion this time?”

Ping Qiuke asked casually after Lu Yaowen got into the car.

“Pincho, we are good friends. I am also a supporter of Mr. Krakow. I hope to see Mr. Krakow win this election with my own eyes before I can leave with peace of mind.”

Lu Yaowen gave an answer immediately.

After hearing what Lu Yaowen said, Ping Qiuke’s eyes flickered slightly: “Mr. Lu, my father has seen all the efforts you have made for him. I wonder what kind of return you need?”

Maozi was still straightforward. Ping Qiuke didn’t beat around the bush at all and directly presented his cards to Lu Yao in a civilized manner.

“Ivan should have told your father the reward I need.”

Lu Yaowen said slowly.

“That’s all you need?”

There was a hint of surprise in Ping Qiuke’s eyes.

“…”

Lawrence Lu smiled and shook his head: “The point is not what Ivan said to your father, but what Ivan said to your father.”

At this moment, Ping Qiuke completely understood what Lu Yaowen meant. The benefit he needed was to make Galitsky and his father-in-law become allies, and have Galitsky help Lu Yaowen to get the benefit.

“It’s so tiring to talk to this guy!” Ping Qiuke complained in his heart, and continued: “Mr. Lu, I understand what you mean. Don’t worry, Ivan has always been my father’s most trusted friend.”

“That’s good.”

Lu Yaowen smiled and nodded.

Then, Lu Yaowen shifted the topic to the current situation in the Ermao area. From Ping Qiuke, Lu Yaowen learned that a large number of the top leaders of Mao Xiong have begun to change their minds.

In the past, these people wanted to be in power, but now they want to monopolize power.

After hearing this, Lu Yaowen could already conclude that the survival of the Bear Country would not last long.

The reason why this behemoth collapsed had nothing to do with the member states in Central Asia, the Caucasus and the Baltic Sea. It was entirely because the three families of Big Mao, Second Mao and White Mao wanted to divide the family property.

These three Russians are the real core base of the Bear Country. If they disperse, the Bear Country will also disperse.

While “chatting”, the car that Lu Yaowen was riding in stopped in front of a magnificent building.

Ping Qiuke personally got out of the car and opened the door for Lu Yaowen, giving enough face to Lu Yaowen, the big money sponsor.

After Lu Yaowen got off the car, whether it was because of Ping Qiuke or Krafke’s advance arrangement, the rows of guards guarding the entrance of the building all saluted Lu Yaowen and gave Lu Yaowen enough face along the way.

Ten minutes later, after several rounds of body searches, Lu Yaowen saw Krafke.

“Mr. Lu, please sit down.”

Krafke was also very polite in the face of this big moneybag.

“I have received the news from the KGB. Mr. Lu, thank you for your support. If you agree to Ivan’s conditions, I will fulfill my promise without missing a single one. He will be my most important friend in the future.”

After Lu Yaowen sat down, Krafke smiled and expressed his gratitude to Lu Yaowen.

Obviously, when Lu Yaowen was being examined just now, Ping Qiuke had already told Krafke about Lu Yaowen’s conditions.

“Mr. Krafke, Ivan is a very capable man. He will not let you down.”

The smile on Lu Yaowen’s face was equally bright.

“Mr. Lu, the last time you came to the Ji Mansion, we only met briefly, and I, as the landlord, did not treat you well. Please let me make it up to you this time.”

The last time Lu Yaowen came, he was just an insignificant small financial sponsor, so Krafke naturally didn’t take Lu Yaowen seriously.

But in the past few months, Lu Yaowen has demonstrated his strength, especially in the election of the first secretary, which has greatly improved Lu Yaowen’s status in Krafke’s heart.

“There’s no need to be so polite between friends, but I, Lu Yaowen, can’t refuse Mr. Krafke’s kindness.”

At this point, Lawrence Lu stood up and walked to Krafke, lowering his voice: “Mr. Krafke, I came from Hong Kong Island this time and brought you a gift. It’s on my plane. Please send the person you trust most to accept this gift.”

“Oh?”

After hearing what Lu Yaowen said, Krafke’s eyes moved slightly. Without any politeness, he directly picked up the phone receiver and pressed a shortcut key: “Ping Qiuke, Mr. Lu has a gift on the plane. Go and get it back for me.”

“Mr. Krafke, Mr. Pinchok needs a truck and plenty of men.”

Lu Yaowen added with a smile.

After half an hour.

‘Ring ring ring~’

A quick ring interrupted Lu Yaowen and Krafke’s “chat”.

Not long after picking up the phone, Krafke’s expression changed slightly, and he looked at Lu Yaowen fiercely: “Mr. Lu, your meeting gift is really generous.”

“Mr. Krafke, you are an important person, and the gift I give you cannot be shabby.”

On Lu Yaowen’s face was his signature smile. In this smile, Krafke saw not Lu Yaowen’s handsomeness, but the radiance of gold.

“Mr. Lu, it seems that the welcome banquet I prepared for you is still a little low-class.”

Krafke shook his head and laughed.

Two tons of gold are enough to make 99.99% of the people in the world smile the brightest smile of their lives.

That evening, the banquet Krafke held for Lu Yaowen was so luxurious and the level of the attendees was so high that Yuri Orlov was shocked.

Even he, an arms dealer who had become the largest “middleman” in the Ermao area, had to rely on Lu Yaowen’s relationship to attend this banquet.

“…”

Looking at Lu Yaowen who had been standing next to Krafke and surrounded by the crowd, Yuri Orlov couldn’t help but recall his first meeting with Lu Yaowen.

At that time, he was just an inconspicuous arms dealer among many arms dealers in the world, and Lu Yaowen was just the leader of a Hong Kong society. Unexpectedly, in just over a year, the identities of both of them had undergone earth-shaking changes.

Especially Lu Yaowen. Even though Yuri Orlov did not have much business in the Far East, he could often hear Lu Yaowen’s name. This guy was already considered a number one figure in the underground circles all over the world.

“Hey, Yuri, what are you thinking about? Why are you so absent-minded?”

Just when Yuri Orlov was “daydreaming”, Lu Yaowen came in front of him and called Yuri Orlov back to his senses.

“Lu, I really didn’t expect you to get this far.”

Yuri Orlov did not hide his inner thoughts and spoke them out directly and frankly.

“I can get to this point not just by myself, but also by the right time, right place and right people.”

Having said that, Lu Yaowen walked to Yuri Orlov’s side, hooked his shoulder, and lowered his voice: “All this is just the beginning. The world will become more chaotic and crazy in the future. At that time, it will belong to people like us.”

“People like us?”

Yuri Orlov frowned slightly.

“Yuri, you are a person who is not content with mediocrity. Otherwise, you would have earned enough money to enjoy a lifetime and you could have retired.”

“…”

After hearing what Lu Yaowen said, Yuri Orlov originally wanted to explain that it was not so easy for an agent like him to retire, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.

Because he found that what Lu Yaowen said was right. Even if he could retire, he would not retire. He liked this job and he liked this feeling.

“Lu, what do you want to say?”

Thinking of this, Yuri Orlov asked this question.

“Yuri, I am also a person who is not content with mediocrity. We can help each other with some things.”

Yuri Orlov’s eyes flickered: “For example?”

“For example, I can provide you with funds so that you can get through your connections and help me at the critical moment…”

Lu Yaowen leaned close to Yuri Orlov’s ear and whispered.

“What a wonderful suggestion, Lu, we are friends, and I am happy to help each other.”

Yuri Orlov also showed a bright smile on his face.

……

In the next few days, under the leadership of Lu Yaowen, all the “young talents” he had originally invested in the Ermao area were connected with Ping Qiuke and Galitsky.

The plan that Lu Yaowen made for Galitsky was to turn all the territories under the jurisdiction of the Odessa Military District into Galitsky’s territory after Krafke came to power.

To this end, Galitsky needs to marry high-ranking officials in these areas to gain control of the governance of these areas. These “young talents” supported by Lu Yaowen can help Galitsky control the economy of these areas, coupled with the army controlled by Galitsky.

With the “three powers” of money, power and soldiers, the Odessa Military Region will become Galitsky’s “basic base”, and it will also be the biggest “confidence” for Lu Yaowen to “squeeze fat and eat meat” from the Russian bear.

On the other side, a passenger plane flying directly from the Bear Country to Hong Kong Island slowly landed at Kai Tak Airport.

Before the passenger plane came to a complete stop, several minibuses drove towards the plane and took away dozens of Russians on board, including the pilot.

Without exception, all of these Russians were KGB members, and most of them were elite agents of the KGB who specialized in carrying out assassination missions. They were also Kloshko’s “return gift” to Lu Yaowen.

After a short rest in Hong Kong Island for one day, these Russians boarded a cruise ship to Southeast Asia.

A few days later, in Star City, in an office building.

“Mr. Brigadier General, our people have already found the enemy’s tracks. If we give them a few more days, we will be able to confirm the enemy’s location. At that time, we can carry out the decapitation operation!”

A bald ghost is reporting to Reeves, the head of MI6’s Star City branch.

After withdrawing its elite troops from Hong Kong Island, MI6 transferred a group of elite agents from the Eagle Country and regained the initiative. For nearly half a month, they fought fiercely with Xiao Qi, Wang Jianjun and others.

More than ten members of the Nightingale under Xiao Qi have died, and more than twenty retired soldiers under Wang Jianjun have also died, which is a huge loss.

“Ah.”

Reeves nodded slightly, his face looking a little tired.

The past two months have been the most tiring two months in his life. He had to bear the pressure from the Eagle Country, guard against enemy assassinations, and find ways to fight back.

“Mr. Brigadier General, Mr. Peng Jiakang has contacted us many times, asking us when we can rebuild the intelligence network.”

Reeves frowned after hearing this. Hong Kong Island has been too weird recently. It can be called the “meat grinder” of their MI6. In less than a year, hundreds of elite agents died in that place.

“Tell Mr. Peng Jiakang not to be so anxious. Once we have finished dealing with things in Southeast Asia, we will naturally find a way to rebuild the intelligence network in Hong Kong Island.”

If Peng Jiakang did not have a very good relationship with the Cabinet Chancellor of the Exchequer John Mason, Reeves would not have bothered to pay attention to the Governor of Hong Kong.

Your British Hong Kong government failed to defend Hong Kong Island, and the Chinese took action against it. Now you want the people from MI6 to fight for their lives?
“understand!”

While Reeves was talking to his subordinates, a dozen Russian agents had arrived at the top floor of the office building and were installing rappelling equipment.

Unlike in Hong Kong Island, MI6 uses a company as a disguise in Star City to cover up its identity.

To ensure security, MI6 rented three floors of office buildings. Only the middle floor was a real “office floor”, and the upper and lower floors were “security floors”.

“Listen carefully, the target is on the fifteenth floor. We have to kill the target and all the living people we see in two minutes. Do you understand?”

A KGB officer said slowly as he fastened the safety lock.

The other dozen or so KGB agents did not say a word, but also silently fastened the safety lock.

Soon, more than a dozen figures “fell from the sky”, easily broke the glass windows of the office building with window breakers, and rushed into the 15th floor.

‘Da da da~’

A burst of fierce gunfire immediately rang out in the office building.

Two hours later.

Governor’s Residence.

‘Ring ring ring~’

A rapid ring interrupted Peng Jiakang who was discussing with McLego and Chen Kangli how to “squeeze money” from Hong Kong Island next.

“Which one?”

Peng Jiakang picked up the microphone and asked.

Then, he stood up and said, “What did you say? The Star City branch of MI6 was attacked by mysterious militants, and a total of 19 people died, including the person in charge, Reeves?”

At this moment, Peng Jiakang’s face was full of shock. Nineteen people might not seem like a large number, but they were all high-ranking officials of MI6’s Star City branch. Once they died, MI6’s influence in Southeast Asia would fall into chaos…

Thinking of this, Peng Jiakang’s face turned extremely ugly.

“okay, I get it.”

After saying this, Peng Jiakang slowly hung up the phone, then looked at Mai Legao and Chen Kangli who were also shocked, and sighed softly: “Gentlemen, for at least a year, we will have to be blind and deaf in Hong Kong Island.”

At the same time, inside the Kifu Hotel.

“Okay, I understand. Let’s follow the plan.”

After hearing the news that Reeves was killed, Lu Yaowen’s face remained extremely calm.

Lu Yaowen had received a call from Jimmy yesterday. The KGB had already notified him in advance that they would take action against MI6 today.

Destroying the Star City branch of MI6 was only the first step in Lu Yaowen’s plan. Next, he would also build his own intelligence agency in Southeast Asia.

‘Dong dong dong~’

Not long after Lu Yaowen hung up the phone, there was a knock on the door.

“Lu, Antonovich just announced his withdrawal from the election. Krafke has already won.”

As soon as Lu Yaowen opened the door, he saw Galitsky’s eldest son, Alexander, who looked excited.

As the commander of the military district, Galitsky naturally could not always stay at Ki’s residence to accompany Lu Yaowen. After Lu Yaowen formally established a “deep friendship” with Krafke, he returned to Odessa and sent his eldest son Alexander to Ki’s residence to accompany Lu Yaowen.

On the one hand, it allows Alexander to establish a deeper relationship with Lu Yaowen, and on the other hand, it allows Alexander to get to know the senior officials in the Ermao area.

“Congratulations, Alexander, the incoming mayor of Zaporizhia.”

A smile also appeared on Lu Yaowen’s face.

Yesterday, in addition to receiving the news that the KGB would take action against MI6, he also received the news that under the KGB’s “persuasion”, Antonovich was ready to withdraw from the election.

“Hahaha, Lu, I want to thank you.”

The smile on Alexander’s face became even brighter.

“Alexander, I hope you can do me a favor after you become the mayor of Zaporizhia.”

“Ok?”

“I need you to help me keep an eye on Motor Sich…”

Lu Yaowen walked to Alexander’s side and said softly.

‘Ring ring ring~’

Just then, the phone rang again.

“Lu, my dear friend, my father will hold a banquet tonight, and I hope you, my good friend, can attend.”

As soon as Lu Yaowen picked up the phone, Ping Qiuke’s voice came from the receiver.

“Mr. Pinchok, it’s my pleasure.”

Lu Yaowen smiled slightly and said slowly.

Krafke got what he wanted, and it was Lu Yaowen’s turn to get what he wanted…

A week later, at a military airport in Jincheng, western China.

Nearly a thousand stern-faced soldiers completely protected the military airport, ensuring that not even a mosquito could fly into the airport.

Several military jeeps were parked not far from the runway. Lu Yaowen, Lei Ming and several gray-haired men in their sixties stood quietly beside the jeeps, looking up at the sky.

These men are all experts in researching military aircraft.

There was anticipation in their eyes and Lei Ming’s eyes.

“Awen, didn’t you say you’d be here at 3pm? Why haven’t you arrived yet?”

Lei Ming asked softly.

“Mr. Lei, it’s only 2:57.”

Lu Yaowen replied in a low voice with a helpless look on his face.

“Oh!”

Lei Ming continued to look up at the sky.

‘Boom~’

At this moment, a large transport plane appeared in the sight of everyone present. Amidst these eagerly expectant gazes, the large transport plane slowly landed on the runway of the airport.

Before the transport plane came to a complete stop, the gray-haired men beside Lu Yaowen ran towards the transport plane at the speed of a 100-meter sprint, as if they were eighteen years old again.

Ten minutes later.

Lu Yaowen looked at several men who stretched out their trembling hands, touching the two fighter jets with graceful curves as if they were touching their goddesses, with expressions of “piety” and “excitement” on their faces.

“Awen, for your contribution this time, we don’t know how to reward you.”

Lei Ming’s face was also full of excitement.

“Mr. Lei, I’ve said before that patriotism is about not asking for anything in return.”

Lu Yaowen replied with a smile.

“You can ask for nothing in return, but we can’t do nothing…”

Lei Ming paused for a moment before continuing, “Awen, we will return to the capital tonight. Even if your name cannot be made public, your contribution must be rewarded accordingly.”

“Comrade Yaowen, thank you for saving us ten years of travel! Thank you, thank you!”

At this moment, an old man suddenly turned around, walked quickly to Lu Yaowen’s side, held Lu Yaowen’s hand tightly with both hands, his face full of gratitude.

“Sir, I should thank you. You are the real backbone of the country. Everything I do is just to make the backbone of us Chinese stand up straighter sooner!”

Lu Yaowen said sincerely.

……

That night, Lu Yaowen and Lei Ming returned to the capital together.

Lu Yaowen stayed in the capital for five full days, and only a very few people knew who Lu Yaowen met and what he did during these five days.

Five days later, Lu Yaowen returned to Hong Kong Island on a Boeing passenger plane.

On the plane, looking through the window at the densely packed buildings of Hong Kong Island below, Lu Yaowen’s eyes were very bright.

This time, he returned to Hong Kong Island with the right time, place and people. There was only one thing he had to do: let the American people know clearly that Hong Kong Island belongs to the Chinese!
