The colonel's collection is naturally not bad, and Hou Dasheng can know because the colonel is out of a life-saving mentality. Cunning rabbit and three holes, not to mention this mad dog in the Middle East?! He doesn't just have three caves! He had to write it down in a small notebook before he could remember it.

And as the ruler of a large country with oil resources for decades, if he himself does not know how many resources he has on his land. That only shows that he is a complete idiot. Apparently, the colonel is not an idiot. In order to control the price of oil, he will not raise the amount of extraction too high.

Western corporations have long been held into semi-exit by him, and he basically controls all the resource extraction of the entire country. A lot of resources are privately explored by him. It used to be a preparation, but now it can be used to buy a life.

"My time, in fact, is long over. It's just that I've been reluctant to admit this fact all along. "The hair has turned straight and blonde. The face underwent a certain amount of bone shaving and facelift, which made the colonel look at least twenty years younger.

Even he began to like his own face, which reminded him of his youth. Hou Dasheng is sitting in front of him now, and the shock absorption of the carriage is very good. Even though the car was bumpy on the Gobi, there was still not much feeling in the cabin.

The colonel watched, and Hou Dasheng sighed lightly: "They only saw me expel the military forces of the United States and Britain from Libya, expel the Anglo-American oil companies, nationalize oil, and use oil revenues for social welfare." But I didn't see that at that time, I was just fighting and playing games between the United States and the Soviet Union, taking advantage of the gap between them to find a way to survive. What I did was a dangerous move. ”

"Luckily, I got it right. The results achieved proved that I had done nothing wrong. The colonel seemed to be nostalgic for something: "But what I didn't expect was that the USSR would collapse so quickly." If you give the USSR another twenty years, give me another twenty years. Maybe I'll do better. The roots will be deeper, and it will be harder to shake me......"

The world is moving together, and the heroes are not free. What flashed in Hou Dasheng's heart was this sentence. The colonel was in a small country he was in and he was in a small country. This determines that the ups and downs of his country must not be too large. The power it has is also very limited.

Hou Dasheng actually wanted to tell the colonel that in fact, any country wants to develop and become a strong country. Then what must be done is to improve yourself in an all-round way. It is the sense of crisis that goes deep into the bones and marrows to be prepared for danger in times of peace. It is the kind of force that almost all the people have to twist together to build a foundation that can be built at an incredible speed that people dare not humiliate.

Those who have done this, and have succeeded in doing so, are probably only Huaxia. The outbreak of silence won back a little face for himself from the battlefield of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, which was considered to be inevitable. Before the nuclear blackmail, he was forced to let go of the arrogant statement that he must also build nuclear weapons and realize it step by step.

Many people don't know how Huaxia at that time went through the foundation of the era that could not be humiliated. But Hou Dasheng knows a lot about this. In the barren and inhabited Gobi Desert for dozens of kilometers, tens of thousands of the most elite and intelligent people in the entire country are giving all their efforts to the backbone of the country at any cost.

Without computers, all arithmetic was done by means of an abacus. There is no high-precision machine tool, so it is a little bit of manual grinding of accessories. Many people died for it, and many people lived incognito for life. This is what finally allowed the country to erect its own backbone.

The process was extremely painful, and the decision was extremely difficult. But if a country wants to stand on its feet, then this is what it must do. In fact, what the colonel did was not too wrong. He spent a lot of money to improve people's livelihood and even subsidize the country's welfare.

The people have benefited. However, all of this seemed so insignificant in the face of the powerful tearing force. There was no solid foundation in the sky, and when the storm hit, they literally collapsed in front of the colonel.

"These things of yours can indeed find you a new talisman." Hou Dasheng looked at the colonel and said softly, "I will find you a suitable place to receive you." That place might be safer than Zurich. Of course, the restrictions are also slightly larger......"

The corners of the colonel's mouth curled slightly, and he said, "I know what you are talking about. Actually, it's really good over there. It's a pity that I seem to have offended them more deeply......"

Not only is the offense deeper, but it is simply offense to death. It's not to the point of killing you, but it's certain to watch you die and stand by. Hou Dasheng muttered in his heart.

"At that time, I was arrogant. Thinking about it now, it's actually ridiculous. Isn't it? As if he had detected what Hou Dasheng was thinking, the colonel said with a wry smile: "I have been in a high position for a long time, and I really think that I am omnipotent when I hear too many good words." Actually, I'm just a bigger pawn in the end. It's just that compared to others, the chances of being left behind are smaller. ”

Shrugging his shoulders, the colonel continued: "But it turns out that when I was felt by them I could be abandoned. And I'm out of here, when the benefits are greater. Abandon me, and still don't hesitate! ”

Hearing the colonel's words, Hou Dasheng suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind. He suddenly thought of something, and he couldn't seem to grasp it. He pursed his lips as he watched the colonel wave his hand to the two jackals who were in the room to get out. The colonel also seemed to sense something, and let the two bodyguards with him leave.

"You've been invested too?!" After everyone left, Hou Dasheng first searched up and down the entire room in silence for half an hour. After confirming that there was really no monitoring or monitoring equipment, he slowly sat on the sofa and asked in a deep voice.

The colonel looked at Hou Dasheng, and the corners of his mouth hooked slightly: "I thought it would take you a while to find out." Actually, I've been hinting at you for a long time. You know, there's a lot of things I can't say explicitly. A lot of hints, and even just flirtatious edges. ”

"I actually guessed, but I didn't dare to confirm it." With a deep breath, Hou Dasheng leaned back on the sofa: "Actually...... I really should have guessed. You didn't have a good rank at the time, and you didn't have many people at your disposal. Able to directly overthrow the entrenched dynasty ......"

The colonel quickly replied, "This is obviously pushed by someone behind it." They gave me money, gave me resources, and even gave me enough armed men. It can also dismantle possible counterattacks. So I was very successful, and I could even say that it was a bit too successful. Later, I was more successful. As an initiator, I was able to force back the rising Britain and the United States, so that they had to withdraw their troops and capital from me......"

In this, there is indeed a reason why the United States and the Soviet Union are holding each other back in their struggle for hegemony. But this colonel has also developed a little too quickly. At one point, he could have a good chance of becoming the lord of Africa, as he arrogantly claimed. Of course, this is just his arrogant claim.

"From the very beginning, I was invested. And it's a lot of money. But seeing the colonel looking at Hou Dasheng, he said softly: "Of course, they get more benefits from me." Originally, we cooperated very well, if we continue to cooperate according to this model. Maybe I can really be that mad dog in the Middle East all the time, even if the United States hates me, it can't do anything to me. ”

Needless to say, the colonel is also very clear about Hou Dasheng. He began to swell and became arrogant. He began to really think that it was all his. And this was the beginning of his tragedy. In fact, this is also the beginning of the tragedy of many investees.

If there is a problem with the investee. Then, quickly recovering the investment in other ways will become a means for investors.

"Actually, I was really stupid when I think about it now." The colonel smiled wryly and said, "It's a pity that I don't have a chance to do it all over again. ”

Hou Dasheng leaned back in his chair and said softly, "Say it!" Where is the reason why they are willing to let you live?! Although I know that investors will squeeze out the last trace of oil and water of the investee before letting you live. But they are willing to let you go, and surely you have given something. Combined with the current situation......"

"I'm starting to realize that I feel like I've fallen into a game." Hou Dasheng said as he slowly sat up: "Come on, let's talk openly and honestly." Or, let's talk in another way that I don't really like. ”

With a leisurely sigh, the colonel said softly, "I don't have any sharpness now. If it had been in the past, I would never have said these things. But now, I have to make it clear to you. None of this is really out of my control. I'm just a pawn too. ”

"I know you're going to find out the root of it all sooner or later. I've known this since I met you. Although their plans are pretty good. But the most dangerous thing is that my life is in your hands. I have no doubt in the slightest, if you yourself find out that I am also involved in these things. You're going to choose to make us all die miserably. ”

Hou Dasheng smiled slightly and looked at the colonel: "So you've been hinting at me all these things?!" Even if I didn't seem to understand your hint right away, you didn't give up. Even just now, almost explicitly tell me that you are actually in the scope of being used, right?! ”

"The temptation actually began very early. Remember the strongman you escorted last time?! The colonel spread his hand, looked at Hou Dasheng and said, "The Middle East is going to undergo a thorough reshuffle." Our presence is already inappropriate. A certain royal family is still struggling. In the end, do they win the investment, or are they like us. Or it will be completely cleansed, and it is still unknown. But we can at least safely get out of the realm of these things. This may be our luck. ”
