King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer

Richie Barton was amused by Joe Ga's mention of "for a fee"...

Being all military contracting companies, everyone understood what Joe Ga meant.

But it was really a pain to think about calling for artillery support on the battlefield and having to do mental accounting.

Richie Barton shook his head with a smile and said, "NATO forces absolutely cannot get involved in the Iraq battlefield, and the fact that the enemy has fighter jets is indeed fatal. We need to be ready for their air strikes at all times, which will increase our defense costs.

Hu Lang, I suggest you borrow their Su-25 fighter jets from the Iraqi Government. The ground crews you brought are all from the Seville Belgrade Group, and they are very skilled at maintaining Russian products.

With just two Su-25s, we can set a trap to lure the MiGs into the field and then take them down.

The enemy is surely thinking about ground bombing, and against Su-25s, they have no chance."

As Richie Barton spoke, he looked at Joe Ga, who had fallen into thought. He smiled and said, "You have the best pilots, though they are old, their condition is still quite good, flying Su-25s wouldn't be too much pressure for them."

Joe Ga was stunned for a moment and then frowned, asking, "You've been investigating my people?"

Richie Barton shook his head and said, "No need to investigate, 'Archerfish' is an instructor for the Russian Knights aerobatic team, I've met him in Frankfurt.

And 'Cobra' is marked as a dangerous individual by the European Military Intelligence Department. Twenty years ago, he would have been under close surveillance just for sitting in the cockpit of an airplane.

I'm not sure why such strategic-level pilots are working for you, but I think you should utilize them while they still have the strength..."

After listening, Joe Ga thought seriously for a while and then nodded in agreement...

Indeed, he needed to prepare for all contingencies, for he was the bait...

Whether or not the Armenian mercenaries would stick with the MiGs was uncertain, and it wasn't sure if 'Stingers' would be enough to bring down the MiGs.

Transporting three Avenger units from Sangha Town to set up a mobile air defense system, plus two Su-25s, would theoretically ensure optimum security.

Joe Ga didn't believe those mercenaries could get their hands on beyond-visual-range air-to-ground missiles, and whether the outdated fire control systems of the MiG-21s were compatible with today's advanced missiles was another issue.

As long as the enemy attempted precision bombing with air-to-ground missiles, as soon as they entered low altitude within visual range, the 'Avenger System' would still have a chance to shoot them down.

Deploying two Su-25s would be a double insurance!

Once Joe Ga figured it out, he shook hands with Richie Barton and said, "Thank you for the reminder, I need the exact locations of those 'Stingers,' and then I'll send someone to inspect them before making detailed deployments."

Upon hearing this, Richie Barton smiled and gave a thumbs up, saying, "I like working with cautious people, it saves me a lot of trouble.

Leave the tracking of 'Stingers' to us at CACI, that's what we are professional at, because our field agents are more experienced.

Locking down the enemy's location, field reconnaissance, special forces deployment, directing drones for bombing, then clean-up by the special forces.

We can cooperate to fight a few beautiful battles!!"

As Joe Ga was preparing for battle in Baghdad, Thompson in Tubruq was also getting busy.

Tony had gathered his guys and sorted the information about the oligarch and Georgian arms dealers, finding Thompson deep in thought behind his desk...

"Sir, what should we do now?"

Thompson was startled out of his thoughts, then pointed at Frester a short distance away and said, "Give the materials to Frester, let him report back to headquarters, and then through Congress we can put pressure on Russia.

ISIS is also Russia's enemy. The Georgian arms dealers funded by oligarch Sergey supplying weapons to ISIS are also damaging Russia's interests.

Once the people from Russia's security department start moving, Sergey will have to go back to Moscow to explain.

Then the Engineer can figure out a way to get rid of him..."

Tony was taken aback and asked, "Just like that?"

Thompson looked at Tony, shook his head with a smile, and said, "What else did you have in mind?

With Sergey exposed, he's not even an enemy worth considering for the boss.

Shall I send you to Moscow to take charge of the assassination operation against Sergey?"

"No, no, no..."

After Tony waved his hands repeatedly, he said, "Sir, Iceman and Jack Heinz have been keeping close watch on Harlotte, should we urge them on?

That Harlotte has been going against the boss all along!"

Thompson curiously regarded the fuming Tony and finally shook his head with a smile, saying, "If you're too idle, join some diving training."

Then looking at the sullen Tony, Thompson said with a laugh, "Heinz is not the key. It's his 'Accountant' that is crucial.

'Iceman' has already detected a pattern, and we're about to lock down the 'Accountant's' location.

Taking down the 'Accountant' would be more helpful to the boss...

Do you know what the boss is more worried about right now?"

Upon hearing this, Tony spread his hands and said, "The boss should be worried about actions against him now..."

Thompson shook his head, about to speak when Frester came over with a smile and said, "The boss isn't worried about the hitmen, but about pressure from higher up.

Unless we're all idiots, mob hitmen, mercenaries, and even small country armies pose no threat to the boss.
