Chapter 1115: Everyone Has a Hidden Agenda
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
In fact, in a place filled with war in Country X, the so-called generals, and other titles were self-given. Even an armed forces leader with only a few thousand men could also proclaim himself as a general.
In this little Country X, in such a small place, there might be dozens of generals, even more than the average larger country. In fact, it was not difficult to assassinate the leader of an armed force. Although the armed forces possessed by these leaders were powerful, they mostly relied on hot weapons to fight. The strength of an individual might not be strong.
However, even then, very few assassins were willing to come here to accept the mission. Assassination focused on technique rather than a fight with brute force. Although they were good at assassinations, they often need environmental protection and some external factors.
Like in this war-torn place, even if the task were easy, no one was willing to pick it up. The reason was very simple. Although the assassination method was much more sophisticated, most of them were not good at frontal conflicts, especially in a war filled with hot weapons. If each soldier a group simply took a shot with their gun, the assassin would turn into a beehive no matter how strong he was.
This was the reason why no one took the mission despite Kars offering such a high price. Who would want to make fun with his life due to leisure? In their worst fate, they might already die under the gunfire from the war before encountering their target. This was something hard to predict.
The first thing Yang Ming had to do here was to meet General Kars. After all, Yang Ming wasn’t sure about the location where General Howton resided. He wanted to get first-hand information at General Kars’ place.
There were many foreigners in Country X. Hence, two Asians, Yang Ming and Wang Xiaoyan, were not very eye-catching. Most of the people here were like Huang Lele’s family, coming here to speculate.
Many people thought that this war-torn country was a paradise for speculative and adventurous businessmen, but they would find that the rules of this place were not ones they were familiar with after they had gone bankrupt.
In this place, connections and money were useless. Even if you were the most powerful temporary president, you would probably step down in two days. The network would be in vain.
Money wouldn’t work well here. Even if you had money, you would also become the meat in someone else’s mouth. Therefore, only if you have absolutely powerful armed forces can you occupy a place in this war-torn country.
Therefore, for those who came here and took the risk to pan for gold like Huang Lele’s family, their momentary glory would instantly be annihilated as soon as the regime changed.
Of course, a diamond mine like Fang Tian’s was an exception. No matter which armed force was on the stage, their leaders would not be stupid enough to offend a top assassin. This kind of person was difficult to please. Why would anyone go and offend them? Offending these people had no benefit to them at all.
Therefore, after General Kars took office, he still did not take back Fang Tian’s diamond mine. Not only that, but he also personally called to convey kind interest. All these behaviors showed that he could not afford to offend Fang Tian.
Although Yang Ming did not know where General Howton was, Yang Ming could easily find General Kars. The capital of the Country X was Shoujie City. Yang Ming also translated according to the transliteration itself because the relevant information could not be found online.
However, before his departure, Fang Tian had a military map of Country X from General Kars. Yang Ming could easily find Soujie City, the capital of X. The traffic in the city was rather chaotic. Some people had to rely on various armed forces or big forces for their survival. Otherwise, it was difficult to exist.
There were no buses here, but only a few large trucks operated by the military as transportation. Of course, these trucks were currently operated under the administration of the Kars regime.
Yang Ming and Wang Xiaoyan stopped one of these vehicles on the road and asked in which direction it was headed. The two people got on the back of it. The truck went to the capital of Country X.
The common currency here was different from the currencies of other African countries, using the US dollar, but fortunately, Yang Ming had already prepared some. The cost of the ride was three dollars per person, depending on the distance.
This was the first time Yang Ming had come to this war-torn country, but it was better than what he imagined. Yang Ming originally thought that this war-torn country would be like wars and ruins everywhere.
However, it seemed that this was not the case. The development of the city was not very high. It was probably at the level of the country from the 1970s and 1980s, but it was still well organized.
When you think about it, when the various armed forces were in conflict, they will also have a tacit understanding of some places that are sparsely populated. They will not destroy the existing urban construction.
Otherwise, the city would be destroyed. Even if it were a victory, it would not be a good thing. If it were to be rebuilt, it would cost a lot of money. This was an astronomical figure for these temporary regimes that were already financially tight.
Therefore, regardless of whether the regime changed alternately, these ordinary towns would not be damaged much. Even so, some small businesses on the street were particularly in order.
On the way, some locals got on the truck, but after they all looked at Yang Ming and Wang Xiaoyan, they lowered their heads and didn’t think anything was strange.
The territory of Country X was not big, and it was not even the size of a small provincial capital in China. So, the truck arrived in the capital city of Shoujie.
Yang Ming and Wang Xiaoyan got off and rushed to the provisional government of General Kars. The location of the provisional government was easy to find. They could just ask an individual to find out.
Regardless of how the regime was handed off, the office location of the provisional government would not change.
The appearance of the provisional government was not very luxurious, and was even somewhat worn out. However, it was understandable since every president here knew that he would not be able to do it for a long time, nor would he put the already very limited funds into the construction of a government building.
Maybe one year, maybe five years, or one month, a provisional government would be replaced by another armed force.
However, in front of the front door of the provisional government, some soldiers were strictly guarding the place. Yang Ming and Wang Xiaoyan could naturally claim that they were invited by General Kars so that they could enter the main entrance directly.
However, Yang Ming did not intend to identify himself directly but chose to sneak into it. With that, he could express his and Wang Xiaoyan’s ability. On the other hand, he also wanted to give General Kars a deterrent effect, showing General Kars not to belittle him.
In this way, Yang Ming could take the initiative in the future negotiations about the gold mine of Huang Lele’s family.
As for the deterrence of General Kars, Yang Ming naturally had another intention, but this idea was not very mature now. Yang Ming had not mentioned it to anyone around him.
Although it seemed that there were some soldiers armed with guns, in regards to the actual security level, these people were far worse than the security of the government building entrances of those big countries.
These people were temporarily drawn from their own armed forces and did not have professional training. So when Yang Ming and Wang Xiaoyan sneaked into the courtyard of the provisional government, no one found them.
Yang Ming had seen General Kars from the information. He was a 40-year-old European white man. However, he established his own armed forces in Country X very early. He finally launched a coup at the beginning of this year and controlled the regime of Country X.
After scanning the interior of the provisional government building with his special ability, Yang Ming easily found General Kars’ office. At this moment, General Kars was sitting in the office, looking at a military map with a frown as he drew marks on the map with his permanent marker.
This provisional government was seemingly guarded strictly from the outside, but the interior was loose. There were no guards outside General Kars’ office. Worse yet, there were no surveillance cameras.
Yang Ming and Wang Xiaoyan entered the office easily through the bathroom on the second floor. Then, they came to the door of General Kars’ office on the third floor.
Yang Ming knocked on the door and heard the voice of General Kars. “Please come in.”
General Kars spoke it English, but Yang Ming had focused on learning English. There was no problem with normal conversation.
Yang Ming and Wang Xiaoyan went straight through the door and then, under General Kars’ surprised look, sat on the sofa opposite General Kars’ desk.
“You both…” General Kars was surprised, and subconsciously went to grab his gun.
“Don’t be impulsive.” Wang Xiaoyan lifted the pistol confiscated from Wulang and pointed it at General Kars.
General Kars’s movements stopped there, and his face became ugly because a muzzle was pointed at him. He did not dare to have any other movements and slowly raised his hand.
“Who sent you? Can you tell me? Howton? Or…” General Kars was worthy of being someone from the battlefield. His expression had returned to be calm.
“Let me introduce ourselves. We are from the Black Butterfly Assassin Group. My surname is Yang, Yang Ming. This is my partner, Wang Xiaoyan.” Yang Ming was not afraid to reveal his identity to General Kars, because people like General Kars would not spread it everywhere. Moreover, Country X was not part of the United Nations. Yang Ming did not need to worry about anything.
“You were introduced by Mr. Fang…?” General Kars was relieved and asked.
“Yes… so I told you not to be impulsive.” Yang Ming smiled as he turned around and said, “Yanyan, you can put down the gun.”
“You scared the hell out of me, but you are really amazing!” General Kars said sincerely, “If you were sent by General Howton, I would be dead.”
“Your defense is not strict.” Yang Ming faintly reminded, “It is easy for people who want to come in. If you are not too short of money, it is best to install a monitoring system. Otherwise, you may die at any time. Of course, even if there is a monitoring system, it doesn’t mean anything to us.”
General Kars suddenly burst into a cold sweat. Indeed, if Yang Ming chose to assassinate him, he would have died.
Yang Ming did not expect that the preventive measures of General Kars’ provisional government would be so poor. The patrol soldiers outside were more about intimidation.
“I will get it as soon as possible. Mr. Yang, thank you for reminding me!” General Kars dared not to be pretentious in front of Yang Ming and quickly stood up in humility. He said very respectfully, “Mr. Yang, when can you act?”
“Give me Howton’s information and get me a car.” Yang Ming said, “But this time, I am going to claim Mr. Fang’s diamond mine first. Would it be a problem?”
“No, no!” General Kars shook his head and smiled. “The diamond mine is very good. You can mine it at any time.”
“I thought you sold it to someone else?” Yang Ming shrugged. “I heard that when you changed the regime here, you will take back the minerals you gave off before.”
“Ha…” General Kars suddenly felt awkward and said with a smile, “Even if I take others’ mines, I don’t dare to take back Mr. Fang’s mine. If you and Mr. Fang want to take my life, wouldn’t that be easy?”
“Great. You understand it. I thought you didn’t know.” Yang Ming’s previous mocking expression was replaced by a serious one.
General Kars didn’t understand why Yang Ming suddenly said this, but Yang Ming was a person he absolutely couldn’t afford to offend. Hence, he could only smile awkwardly at the side. He did not know how to reply to this.
“Well, let’s not talk about this. Tell me about the assassination target.” Yang Ming didn’t need to say too much now. It was enough just to intimidate General Kars. As for Huang Lele’s matter, it was not too late to wait until after the task was completed.
At this time in the mission, Yang Ming also made a plan. They could call Li Qiang to bring manpower to Africa to build a powerful armed force while harvesting the diamond mine here.
However, even if it were not very powerful, General Kars would probably not offend the people inside. It was just that Li Qiang and his group were strong enough. Kars’ regular army was not their opponent.
As for the method of Li Qiang coming over, they didn’t have to struggle so much like Yang Ming and Wang Xiaoyan. After Yang Ming called them over, he was not ready to let them go back.
Therefore, they could come to Africa through normal channels and then go to the interior of Country X.
“Howton’s armed forces are located in the eastern mountains of Country X,” General Kars said as he unfolded a map in his hand and began to label it. “There is another armed presence in addition to Howton’s armed forces. The other armed force is the armed forces led by Kevin. Fortunately, he and Howton are not in harmony. Otherwise, their strength cannot be underestimated.”
General Kars spoke as he also marked Kevin’s location. Yang Ming quietly looked at the position of the armed forces on the map. “This Kevin, does he not pose any threat to your regime?”
“There is no threat at the moment. Kevin is a very conservative person. He has always occupied the south of Country X. He was a local despot, but he never attacked. This situation has been going on for several years. He has not expanded any power,” said General Kars.
“What about their forces?” Yang Ming continued.
“Howton’s forces are bigger, but Kevin is not weak. He has no conflict with the outside world. His people are not to be underestimated. In fact, everyone understands that he is building up his strength. It’s impossible to stir up anything in the recent moment,” said General Kars.
“In addition to these two forces, there is nothing else in this area?” Yang Ming nodded. It seemed that General Kars was not a fool but still had some brains.
“Nothing else. There are only these two armed forces. But at present, Howton is a greater threat to me. We were originally enemies. Now that I am on stage, he will certainly not be willing, so it is a matter of time before he comes to deal with me. I naturally have to make a strong first move,” said General Kars.
“Make a strong move first?” Yang Ming shrugged as he smiled and said, “Actually, I don’t want to hide from you that Howton also put out a bounty for killing you! I chose to help you because of Mr. Fang.”
“Ah? This guy actually wants to hire an assassin to kill me?” General Kars was suddenly shocked and said, “I don’t think I can leave him be!”
However, after venting out, General Kars fell into deep thoughts. After he had killed Howton, would there be another Howton? At that time, he would not have the help of Yang Ming. What should he do?
Although on the first day when General Kars came onto the stage, he was ready to step down, the longer he was seated in this position, Kars became more and more indulged with it.
He didn’t want to step down. He wanted to continue in this position all the time, but obviously, this was not realistic. The history lessons told him that in five or more months, other regimes would replace him instead.
General Kars sighed and hoped that Yang Ming was the power by his side. With that, he did not need to be afraid of anything.
But obviously, this idea was not impossible. People like Yang Ming would never be General Kars’ underling. Even he wanted to become Yang Ming’s underling, Yang Ming wouldn’t really accept it.
Although he seemed to be powerful, Yang Ming might not have less wealth than him. A temporary president like him had to be respectful toward Yang Ming.
After obtaining photos and information about General Howton, Yang Ming bid General Kars farewell and asked him to wait for his news. Regarding the issue with the car, General Kars was already ready.
It was a green military jeep. The origin and brand were ominous; it might be assembled by a local car company. However, there was a General Kars authorization file in the car. With this document, one could avoid trouble all the way through.
Of course, the document was no longer useful in General Howton and General Kevin’s territories.
After Yang Ming left, General Kars fell into deep thought. Obviously, the arrival of Yang Ming made him excited. Even though his power wasn’t as strong as he imagined, Kars enjoyed it.
