When Johnson returned to the Rothschild family's manor in Finland, Carmen was packing in the office.
In fact, in addition to a few books, there were only two things in his suitcase – the Golden Apple and a laptop. He didn't need to worry about clothes and daily necessities. Naturally, the butler would take care of them for him.
To Johnson's surprise, the boss seemed to be in a good mood. Not only did the haze in his eyes disappear, but the hostility in his body also lessened. Every time he changed hiding places, his temper was quite bad.
It seemed that something must have happened while he was gone.
"You're back?" Carmen stood up and smiled at the door.
"Yes." Johnson nodded, walked into the office, and glanced at the suitcase on the ground. "Are you ready to move?"
"Yes, we'll leave in half an hour."
"The destination is?"
Carmen smiled and pointed out the window.
Johnson looked out the window in confusion, but he didn't see anything.
Is it going to the north?
But this was already the northernmost manor of the Rothschild family. Where would they go if they went further north?
"My dear Mr. Johnson, tell me, where is our largest concentration camp in Northern Europe – oh no, refugee camp?"
"Near Lake Inari in the north of Finland."
"Bingo!" Carmen snapped his fingers, spread his arms, and smiled. "That's our destination."
Johnson didn't understand why the boss suddenly wanted to go to the refugee camp, but since it was the boss's decision, he could only obey. But before he left, he had to inform his boss of something. Intuition told him that it might be better to say it while the boss was in a good mood.
"I didn't mean to disturb your good mood, but …" Johnson hesitated, then said, "The newly appointed Arrow Frankberg division manager, Bagley, was killed by the grenade of the 10th Armored Division when he commanded the battle in Nuremberg."
"How many people do we have left in Frankberg?"
"Two thousand people left …"
No one expected their ally to suddenly turn around. The five mechanized brigades deployed by Arrow in Bava were almost all defeated on the night the 10th Armored Division defected.
"Let them withdraw," Carmen said emotionlessly.
Qiangsen looked over in surprise.
Carmen expected his subordinates to show a surprised expression, so he smiled and said slowly, "The Rothschild family, or the Freemasonry, has lost Frankberg. I know this very well. Don't worry, I'm not the kind of person who can't afford to lose, nor am I the kind of person who will leave things at that. Just do as I say. Also, tell Sardes to meet me at the military base next to the refugee camp. I have a new mission for him. "
"Yes."
Johnson lowered his head and accepted the order.
It seemed that the boss had regained his composure.
But for some reason, Johnson instinctively felt a trace of uneasiness.
There was no way he was mistaken. Those dark green pupils were still filled with madness …
…
Lake Inari was the largest freshwater lake in Finland. It was also the northernmost lake. The Ivaro River flows into the lake from the southwest and discharges into the Arctic Ocean via the Patz River from the east. This lake appeared many times in Norse mythology. Looking down from the map, the more than 3,000 islands were like a fragmented rag, dividing the entire lake into intricate lakes and rivers.
There were no other seasons here, and there was endless snow all year round.
At night, in the northern part of Lake Inari, a motorboat painted with snow camouflage floated quietly on the shore of the lake. From a distance, it looked like a piece of ice floe.
Not far away, two patrol boats galloped across the lake and sailed into the distance, not noticing the motorboat at all.
After the patrol boats went far away, eight figures in polar camouflage slowly raised their heads from the motorboat.
"Keep going."
Kutpov gestured to the person driving the boat. The motorboat slowly started and quietly moved forward to the destination.
Under the digital camouflage beret was a face with as many scars and wrinkles. On the knife-like face, two wolf pupils were embedded. Just by looking at him, one could feel the dangerous murderous intent from him.
The people around him were all just as dangerous as he was.
They belonged to the Alpha Special Forces, and they were the most dangerous foreign special operations team.
On their bodies, there was no sign that could prove their identity. Participating in this unauthorized foreign military operation, if they were discovered, it wouldn't be a diplomatic dispute that could be explained. It could even directly ignite a military conflict between the two countries. From the moment they set off, they were prepared to die as stateless people.
Of course, under normal circumstances, not a single one of them would return alive.
The motorboat docked on the north side of Lake Inari.
Kutpov dragged the motorboat ashore and hid it behind the snow. Then he gestured to several other comrades, maintained a combat posture, and moved toward the target location.
The reason why they appeared in Finland began more than a week ago.
The Russian Security Service received news from its allies that the Arrow military base next to the refugee camp on the north shore of Lake Inari in Finland was Arrow's largest training base in Northern Europe. It had sent 5,000 mercenaries to the Ukrainian region.
Their mission was very simple. They set up beacons in the ammunition depot, training grounds, and important facilities of the training base, then paralyze the air defense system of the base and guide the PAK-DA stealth strategic bomber to "mistakenly bomb."
Mistakenly bombing was no different from doing it in the open.
This military base happened to be close to the Finnish border. As long as the "correct" people were killed and they were careful not to be discovered by the radar, the Finnish government should turn a blind eye. The harsh environment in the refugee camp itself was criticized by human rights organizations as a concentration camp in the 21st century. If at this critical juncture, it was revealed that mercenary organizations were forcing refugees to join the army, it would be a heavy blow to Finland's national image and diplomatic reputation.
Once this military base was paralyzed, the mercenaries going to Ukraine in the next five months would be reduced to one-third. It wouldn't even take five months. Even if Celestial Trade was suspected of slacking off, the war could end within a month.
In any case, the return was worth Russia's risk.
Taking advantage of the night, the Alpha team moved through the snow and approached the high ground next to the military base in the pine forest.
Through the pine needles, through the barbed wire covered with snow, they even saw the refugees warming themselves around the coal stove. Just as the intelligence said, after the European consortium "sheltered" these poor people, they were then sent here. Using their family as a threat, nationality, and salary as a temptation, they forced them to work for Arrow.
According to the marks on the map, the first ammunition depot was just 500 meters away. These people didn't seem to think that someone might come here. The patrol was quite lax, and the sentinel on the tower even lit a cigarette to pass the time.
However, at this moment, Kutpov frowned and gestured to his comrade next to him. Everyone stopped moving and lay quietly on the snowy ground, as if they had become one with the snow behind them.
The roar of the helicopter's propellers gradually became clearer. A black transport helicopter flew past them and headed straight to the military base in front of them. It landed on the tarmac near the door. With the arrival of this helicopter, the entire base became lively.
Kutpov noticed that the sentinel had thrown away the cigarette in his hand and straightened his back. He was almost twelve times more energetic.
Some big shot must have come.
With that in mind, Kutpov took out his binoculars and looked in the direction of the helicopter.
He saw a man in a military uniform standing in front of the helicopter and seemed to be greeting visitors.
A team of mercenaries in kinetic skeletons filed out, followed by a man with a Jewish face jumping off the helicopter. He adjusted the focus of the binoculars. When he saw the man's face, Kutpov was stunned at first, then his pupils suddenly shrank.
Carmen Rothschild!
The most wanted target of Ghost Agents!
But why was he here?
