Cang Hao didn't speak, and the four-star admiral asked with a smile: "It's strange, isn't it, you are not the YN Navy, but you are on a patrol ship of the Indonesian Navy, what's going on?"

Cang Hao dragged a long voice and said, "We...... It was the patrol boat that picked up. ”

"I don't believe it. The four-star admiral shook his head slowly: "Did you pick up a lot of corpses when you picked up the ship, we found several corpses of YN naval personnel on the ship, and the weapons used to kill them exactly match the model you have." ”

Cang Hao also smiled: "What do you want to say?"

"What I want to say is that you should have killed the YN Navy and hijacked the patrol ship. After a pause, the four-star general continued: "At the same time, since you have a firefight with pirates, it means that you are not in the same group as these Malacca sea wolves, but your behavior is no different from pirates!"

"I was also forced to be helpless. ”

The four-star general smiled sarcastically: "Forced to be a pirate?"

"What do you think is the difference between the army and police and pirates in a country like YN?" Without waiting for the other party to answer, Cang Hao continued: "In 1998, a large-scale massacre against Chinese broke out in the country, and the army instigated and directly participated in it. This is more than even the pirates, at least the pirates have a clear goal, just for the money, and they want to exterminate others. ”

The four-star general was speechless for a while: "Is this ......?"

"I'm very convinced that it doesn't make sense with the YN Navy, and what if I tell them we're not pirates, they're still going to detain us and throw us in some jail to get dirty and smelly. Cang Hao shrugged his shoulders: "I never dared to expect my motherland to do something, and the result will only be that we are completely forgotten by this world!"

"So you slay the killer. With a long breath, the four-star admiral said slowly: "Then a new problem arises, the reason why the YN Navy went to fight the pirates is because they found that the pirates are exchanging fire. There is no doubt that you are the target of the pirates, and how did you end up in that area?"

"Passing by. Cang Hao told a lie openly: "When we are attacked by pirates, we always have to defend ourselves, we were about to win, but the YN Navy came out to disrupt the situation." At that time, we were facing a flanking attack, and in order to escape, we had to temporarily borrow a YN naval ship...... It's that simple. ”

"It's not that simple. The four-star general looked at Cang Hao with a smile: "Let's talk about it, I know who you are, Cang Hao, English name Gerod, the former leader of the Blood Lion Mercenaries...... Oh no, the Blood Lion mercenaries have been reorganized. ”

There is no doubt that the four-star general has a way to find out Cang Hao's true identity.

And despite this, Cang Hao continued to play haha: "You recognize the wrong person." ”

"I'm not mistaken. The four-star general shook his head slowly: "I hope you can understand the current situation and cooperate with us, which is good for everyone." ”

Cang Hao had an expression of what can you do to me: "What if I don't cooperate?"

"I don't need to do anything, just hand you over to the YN Navy. There was a bit of threat in the four-star admiral's words: "Whether you just wanted to get away at that time, or it contained the resentment caused by the slaughter of your fellow clan, after all, you killed a lot of YN naval officers and soldiers. Now YN desperately wants to catch you, and if I want, I can make you filthy and stinky for the rest of your life in some black jail in the country you hate the most, as you just said. ”

In response to this threat, Cang Hao had to compromise: "Okay, then let's talk about ......"

"That's the way it should be. The other party nodded approvingly, and then stretched out his hand to Cang Hao: "Formally introduce, I'm Linus, a four-star admiral, and the chief officer of Diego Garcia's base, it's a pleasure to meet you." ”

Cang Hao shook the other party's hand vigorously: "Hello." ”

"When we inquired about the situation with the YN Navy, the YN side immediately demanded that all the ships and personnel on board be transferred, but I refused. Moreover, I didn't say that you hijacked it, I just said that the ship was attacked by pirates and was damaged......" Admiral Linus said, stood up and went to the wine cabinet, and poured two glasses of whiskey: "I could have handed you over to them immediately, but I didn't, I'm really sincere." ”

"Okay...... Cang Hao said helplessly, "Thank you." ”

"No thanks. Admiral Linus put a glass of whiskey in front of Cang Hao: "The people and the army of country M owe you a favor, even if I give it back to you." ”

Cang Hao smiled: "Yes." ”

"Previously, our country was on the verge of nuclear war at any time with Russia. It was you who went to Pripyat, found out the truth of the matter, and brought the real culprit to justice. Nodding vigorously, Admiral Linus said with emotion: "We are all soldiers, and soldiers should not be afraid of war, let alone death." But some sacrifices are worth it, while others should be avoided altogether...... I owe it to you for the boys I have for giving them a chance to return to their hometowns and reunite with their families!"

Cang Hao pretended to be B and said: "How great the ability is, how great the responsibility!"

"This practice of yours has also changed my opinion on mercenaries. Admiral Linus said very sincerely: "In the past, I looked down on mercenaries, thinking that you were just a bunch of profit animals, willing to be cannon fodder for money. What is the most important thing for a soldier, that is, a sense of honor, responsibility and discipline, which mercenaries do not have. ”

Cang Hao smiled indifferently: "Go on." ”

"You changed my mind. Taking a sip of wine, Admiral Linus said slowly, "Now, I'm at least sure that you Blood Lion mercenaries are different from the others. Not only do you have all of these things, but you are even better than the regular armies of many countries. ”

"Thanks for the compliment. ”

"Based on your contribution, and my personal appreciation of you, then ......," Admiral Linus said, smiling sarcastically, "To hell with those idiots in the YN Navy!"

"You don't think you tell the truth?"

"I will return the patrol boat, and the corpses of the soldiers will be honored, and I respect the sacrifices of all soldiers, regardless of the country. Admiral Linus said, pouting, "But I'll just emphasize that it was the pirates who attacked the ship!"

"Okay, so then, can we get down to business?"

Admiral Linus was stunned for a moment: "What's the matter?"

"I'm sure you didn't just call me here to thank me. ”

Admiral Linus smiled slyly, "Will there be anything else?"

The current military ranks of country M are divided into seven grades and twenty-five grades, of which generals are divided into five grades, brigadier generals, major generals, lieutenant generals, generals and five-star generals.

The lowest brigadier general is roughly equivalent to a colonel in other countries, while the highest five-star general is only awarded in wartime, the last five-star general has died in 1981, and the four-star general is the highest military rank that a soldier of country M can attain in peacetime.

Linus can become a four-star general, not only inseparable from his personal talent, but also has many forces behind him.

The officers of country M are very valuable, unlike a certain big country, who can become generals at that time by singing a song, dancing, writing a book, and even by playing allegro.

Among the people that Cang Hao had direct contact, Meng Yanglong was also a general, and Cang Hao had no doubt that Linus's promotion path was much more difficult than Meng Yanglong's.

In other words, Cang Hao had to admit that Linus was more talented than Meng Yanglong, although this comparison may not be very scientific.

From another point of view, this means that Admiral Linus is a very difficult opponent, and Cang Hao has been playing casually from the beginning, not saying a useful serious word, just worried that he will inadvertently leak important information.

Cang Hao said indifferently: "When you find out that there is a problem with this patrol ship of the YN Navy, you can shoot and kill it on the spot, it doesn't matter to you, even if there are civilians on board." As long as you feel that you are threatened, you never skimp on ammunition and do not care about the condemnation of public opinion. ”

Admiral Linus admits calmly: "That's right. ”

"But you didn't. Cang Hao slowly shook his head: "And from the very beginning, your subordinates have been more restrained, and the purpose is just to escort us back to the base." ”

"What does that mean?"

"It means that you already know who is on the patrol boat. Cang Hao shrugged his shoulders: "YN Anyway, it can be regarded as half an ally of country M, and you risked offending your allies to tell such a lie, which is not cost-effective from a political point of view, so you might as well say it directly!"

"Well, since you said so...... Admiral Linus exhaled, "This involves a question, why are you in the Strait of Malacca, I don't believe it's as simple as passing through." ”

Cang Hao smiled deeply: "What else can it be?"

"As for the ...... for what," Admiral Linus dragged in a long voice and slowly analyzed: "I would rather believe that you came to the Strait of Malacca to meet these pirates, there should be a deal between you, and for some reason you turned your face to fight, so what do you want from the Malacca Sea Wolves?"

"Go on. ”

"Equipment. Admiral Linus said word by word: "A few days ago, we lost a batch of equipment, which is in the hands of the Malacca sea wolf. I've heard that you've set up a base in South Africa and are training mercenaries, and the equipment should be urgently needed by you. ”

"You're well-informed. ”

"I have a lot of friends at the CIA. Admiral Linus said bluntly: "Let's stop beating around the bush, Cang Hao, I know what you want." ”

Cang Hao was still smiling: "And then?"
