In fact, in the war-torn land of Country X, the so-called titles such as generals were self-titled. Even the leader of an armed force with only a few thousand people was self-titled as a general.
In this small Country X, such a small place, there might be dozens of generals or even more, more than the average big country. In fact, it was not difficult to assassinate the leader of an armed force. Although the armed forces of these leaders were strong, most of them relied on hot weapons to fight. Their individual strength might not be so strong.
However, even so, there were not many assassins who were willing to come here to take on the task. Assassins were skilled in killing, not brute force. Although they were good at killing, they often needed the cover of the environment and some external factors.
In such a war-torn place, no one was willing to accept the task even if it was easy. The reason was very simple. Although assassins were better at assassination, most of them were not good at head-on conflicts, especially in this kind of war with hot weapons. A group of soldiers used guns to shoot you. No matter how powerful you were, you would be shot into a sieve.
This was why Kars offered such a high price, but still no one took on this task. Who would take their own life as a joke? They might not even see the target of the task, and they would be robbed and killed in the war. This was something that was hard to say.
The first thing Yang Ming had to do when he arrived here was to see General Kars. After all, Yang Ming did not know where General Howton was stationed. He wanted to get first-hand information from General Kars.
Country X had a large foreign population, so Yang Ming and Wang Xiaoyan, the two yellow-skinned people, were not very eye-catching. Most of these people were like Huang Lele's family; they came here to speculate.
Many people thought that this war-torn country was a paradise for speculators and adventurers, but after they went bankrupt, they found that the rules of the game here were not what they were familiar with.
Here, connections and money were of no use. Even if you knew the most powerful interim president here, maybe he would step down in two days, and your network would be in vain.
Money was not useful. No matter how rich you were, you were still the meat in the mouth of others. Therefore, only when you had an absolutely powerful armed force could you occupy a foothold in this war-torn country.
Therefore, people like Huang Lele's family, who came here to take risks and seek for gold, as long as there was a change in the regime, their momentary glory would be instantly annihilated.
Of course, Fang Tian's diamond mine was an exception. No matter which armed force was in power, their leader wouldn't be stupid enough to offend a top assassin. They couldn't wait to curry favor with this kind of person, so why would they offend him? Offending such a person would not benefit them at all.
Therefore, after General Kars came to power, he still did not take back Fang Tian's diamond mine. Not only that, but he also personally called to express goodwill. This series of actions 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 Country X was Shoujie City. Yang Ming had also translated it based on the transliteration because there was no relevant information on the Internet.
But before departure, Fang Tian got a military map of Country X from General Kars. Yang Ming could easily find the capital of Country X, Shoujie City. The traffic in the city was relatively chaotic. In order to survive, some people had to rely on various armed forces or big forces. Otherwise, it would be difficult to survive.
There were no buses here, only some large trucks operated by the army as a means of transportation. Of course, these trucks were currently under the operation of the Kars regime.
Yang Ming and Wang Xiaoyan stopped such a car on the road and asked the direction of the car. The two got behind the car, and the truck headed to the capital of Country X.
The common currency here was different from the currencies of other African countries. The U.S. dollar was used, but fortunately, Yang Ming had prepared some in advance. The cost of the ride was three dollars per person, depending on the distance.
This was the first time that Yang Ming had come to such a war-torn country, but it was better than what he imagined. Yang Ming originally thought that this war-torn country would be the kind of war-torn country with ruins everywhere.
However, now it seemed that this was not the case. Although the development of the city was not very high, probably at the level of the country in the seventies and eighties, it was also well-organized.
When various armed forces were in conflict, they would tacitly choose some sparsely populated places, and they would not destroy the existing city construction.
Otherwise, if the city was destroyed, it would not be a good thing even if they obtained political power. If they wanted to rebuild, it would cost a lot of money. This was an astronomical figure for these temporary regimes that were already short of funds.
Therefore, regardless of whether the regime changed alternately, these normal towns and cities would not be damaged too much. Even so, some small businesses on the street looked particularly bleak.
Halfway through, some locals got on the car, but most of them looked at Yang Ming and Wang Xiaoyan and lowered their heads. They did not feel anything strange.
The territory of Country X was not large; it was not even as big as a small domestic province, so the car soon arrived at Shoujie City, the capital of Country X.
Yang Ming and Wang Xiaoyan got off the car and rushed to General Kars' temporary government. The location of the temporary government was very easy to find. They could just ask anyone.
No matter how the regime was handed over, the temporary government's office location would not change.
The appearance of the temporary government was not very luxurious, and it was even a little shabby, but it was understandable. Every president here knew that he would not be able to do it for a long time, and he would not invest the limited funds in the construction of the government building.
It could be one year, five years, or one month. A temporary government would be replaced by another group of armed forces.
However, in front of the temporary government, there were soldiers guarding it strictly. Yang Ming and Wang Xiaoyan could naturally claim that General Kars invited them, so they could enter from the main entrance.
However, Yang Ming did not intend to directly reveal his identity, but he chose to sneak in secretly. On the one hand, he could show his and Wang Xiaoyan's abilities. On the other hand, he also wanted to give General Kars a deterrent effect so that he would not underestimate him.
In this way, in the future negotiations about Huang Lele's family's gold mine, Yang Ming could grasp the initiative.
As for the deterrence of General Kars, Yang Ming naturally had another deep meaning in it, but this idea was not very mature now. Yang Ming did not mention it to anyone around him.
Although it seemed that there were some armed soldiers guarding here, when it came to the degree of security, these people were far worse than the guards at the government gates of those big countries.
These people were temporarily drawn from their own armed forces and had not been professionally trained. So, when Yang Ming and Wang Xiaoyan secretly climbed the wall and entered the temporary government compound, no one found them.
Yang Ming had seen General Kars from the information. He was a European Caucasian in his forties, but he had established his own armed forces in Country X very early. Finally, he launched a coup at the beginning of this year and controlled the political power of Country X.
Using his special ability to scan the interior of the temporary government building, Yang Ming easily found General Kars' office. At this moment, General Kars was sitting in the office, looking at a military map. He frowned and drew on it with a marker.
This kind of temporary government seemed to be heavily guarded from the outside, but the inside was very loose. Outside General Kars' office, there were no guards, not even surveillance videos.
Yang Ming and Wang Xiaoyan easily entered the office building from the bathroom on the second floor and then came to the door of General Kars' office on the third floor.
Yang Ming knocked on the door, and the voice of General Kars came from inside. "Please come in."
General Kars spoke English, but Yang Ming focused on learning English. There was no problem with normal conversations.
Yang Ming and Wang Xiaoyan directly pushed the door and walked in. Then, under General Kars' somewhat surprised gaze, they sat on the sofa opposite General Kars' desk.
"You guys …" General Kars was stunned and subconsciously touched the gun on his body.
"Don't be impulsive." Wang Xiaoyan raised the pistol from Wulang and pointed it at General Kars.
General Kars' movements stagnated there, and his face became ugly. Because there was a muzzle pointed at him, he did not dare to make any other moves and slowly raised his hand.
"Who sent you? Can you tell me? Howton? Or … "General Kars was worthy of being on the battlefield, and his expression returned to calmness.
"Let me introduce myself. We are from the Black Butterfly Assassin Group. My surname is 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 publicize anything. Moreover, Country X did not join the United Nations, so Yang Ming did not need to worry about anything.
"You were introduced by Mr. Fang …?" General Kars suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and asked.
"Yes … so I told you not to be impulsive." Yang Ming smiled and turned his head. "Yanyan, you can put down the gun."
"You scared me to death, but you are really powerful!" General Kars said sincerely, "If you were sent by Howton, then I am already dead."
"Your defense here is not tight." Yang Ming faintly reminded, "It is easy for someone who wants 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 does not make any sense to us. "
General Kars suddenly had a cold sweat. Indeed, if Yang Ming chose to assassinate him, then he was already dead.
Yang Ming did not expect that General Kars' temporary government's preventive measures would be so poor. The soldiers patrolling outside were more intimidating.
"I will do it as soon as possible. Mr. Yang, thank you for reminding me!" General Kars did not dare to be arrogant in front of Yang Ming. He quickly stood up humbly and said very respectfully, "Mr. Yang, when can you act?"
"Give me Howton's information, and then get me a car." Yang Ming said, "But this time, I want to take over Mr. Fang's previous diamond mine. Is there any problem?"
"No, no!" General Kars shook his head and smiled. "The diamond mine is very good. It can be mined at any time."
"I thought you sold it to someone else again." Yang Ming shrugged and said, "I heard that you will take back the minerals that were given out before when you change the regime here."
"Ha …" General Kars was a little embarrassed and said with a smile, "Take back anyone's, but I dare not take back Mr. Fang's. If you and Mr. Fang want to take my name, isn't it easy?"
"It's good that you understand it. I thought you didn't know." Yang Ming's previous teasing expression suddenly changed into a serious expression.
General Kars didn't understand why Yang Ming suddenly said this, but Yang Ming was someone he could never afford to offend, so he had to smile awkwardly. He didn't know how to continue this topic.
"Well, let's not talk about this. Let's talk about the assassination target." Yang Ming didn't need to say too much now. It was enough to scare General Kars a little. As for Huang Lele's matter, it would not be too late to solve it after the mission was completed.
During this mission, Yang Ming also planned to ask Li Qiang to bring people to Africa. While receiving the diamond mine here, he would build a strong armed force.
However, even if it was not very strong, General Kars would not offend the people here. It was just that Li Qiang and the others were strong enough. Probably even the regular army under Kars was not their opponent.
As for the way Li Qiang came over, it was not as troublesome as Yang Ming and Wang Xiaoyan. After all, Yang Ming intended to ask them to come over, and he was not going to let them go back.
Therefore, they could come to Africa from the normal channel, and then go inland to Country X.
"Howton's armed forces are located in the eastern mountains of Country X." As General Kars introduced, he unfolded the map in his hand and began to mark it. "In addition to Howton's armed forces, there is another armed force in the vicinity. It is the armed force led by Kevin. Fortunately, he and Howton are not on good terms. Otherwise, if they join forces, their strength cannot be underestimated."
As General Kars spoke, he also marked the location of Kevin. Yang Ming quietly looked at the location of the armed forces on the map. "This Kevin, does he not pose a threat to your regime?"
"There is no threat for the time being. Kevin is a very conservative person. He has been occupying the southern part of Country X. He has occupied the mountain as the king, but he does not attack. This situation has been going on for several years. He has not expanded his forces, "said General Kars.
"What about their forces?" Yang Ming continued to ask.
"Howton's forces are bigger, but Kevin is not weak. Because there is no conflict with the outside world, his people can't be underestimated now. In fact, everyone understands that he is conserving his strength, but he can't do anything in the near future," said General Kars.
"In addition to these two forces, is there anything else nearby?" Yang Ming nodded. It seemed that General Kars was not a fool; he still had some brains.
"No, there are only these two armed forces. But for now, Howton is a bigger threat to me. We are originally enemies. Now that I am on the stage, he will definitely not be reconciled, so it is only a matter of time before he deals with me. I naturally have to make the first move, "said General Kars.
"Make the first move?" Yang Ming shrugged and smiled. "In fact, I don't want to hide it from you. Howton is also offering a reward to kill you! It's just that I chose to help you because of Mr. Fang. "
"Ah? This guy actually wants to hire an assassin to kill me? "General Kars was shocked after hearing it and said angrily," It seems that I really can't keep him! "
However, after venting, General Kars fell into contemplation again. After I kill Howton, will there be a group of Howtons? At that time, I don't have the help of Yang Ming. What should I do?
Although General Kars was ready to step down on the first day he came to power, the longer he sat in this position, the more reluctant he became.
He didn't want to step down. He wanted to sit in this position all the time, but obviously, this was not realistic. The lessons of history told him that other regimes would replace him in five years at most or a few months at least.
General Kars sighed and fantasized in his heart. If Yang Ming was the power around him, how good would it be? In this way, he would not have to be afraid of anyone.
But obviously, this idea was not impossible. A person like Yang Ming would never be a subordinate of General Kars. If he were to be a subordinate of General Kars, General Kars would not necessarily accept him.
Although General Kars seemed to be powerful, Yang Ming's wealth might not be less than General Kars', and a temporary president like General Kars was respectful to Yang Ming.
After obtaining General Howton's photos and information, Yang Ming left General Kars and asked him to wait for his news here. As for the car, General Kars was ready.
It was a military green jeep. The origin and brand were unknown. It might have been assembled and produced by a local car company, but there was a document of General Kars' authorization in the car. With this document, a lot of trouble could be avoided, and there would be no obstacles along the way.
Of course, when they arrived at the station of General Howton and General Kevin, this document was no longer useful.
After Yang Ming left, General Kars fell into contemplation. Obviously, the arrival of Yang Ming made his mind become active. Even though his current power wasn't as great as he had imagined, Karsi still enjoyed this feeling.
