Jiang Cheng was touched as he looked at his brothers. In the past year in East Africa, it was only because of the support of the Huaxia Dragon Merchants that they were able to get to where they were today. "Okay. Since everyone has supported me, I, Jiang Cheng, will not let you down. From tomorrow onwards, we will officially support the volunteer army. All Chinese merchants will immediately withdraw from the country for safety reasons! "
The group of Chinese merchants all widened their eyes. Gong Yue was the first to jump up. "No, I will stay here. I want to accompany you, Boss."
The Chinese businessmen were all affectionate and loyal. When they heard that Jiang Cheng wanted to stay in Sudan alone, they were not very willing.
An Qingdong also took the lead and said, "Brother Jiang Cheng, if we leave, we leave together. If we stay, we stay together. We, the Huaxia Dragon Merchants, are united. We must not separate at this time. " After An Qingdong finished speaking, the people around him all nodded in agreement. Everyone obviously did not want Jiang Cheng to stay here.
Jiang Cheng looked at everyone's lively discussion. His heart was filled with warmth, but he still slowly raised his hand to stop everyone from talking. "Listen to me, everyone. I am here for my safety. The volunteer army will protect me, and the Huaxia Dragon Merchants have a total of 3,000 dragon soldiers to protect me. If we all split up, it will be even more inappropriate. "
Jiang Cheng's words made many of the Chinese merchants fall into deep thought. If everyone gathered together, they would not be able to fully mobilize their forces. This way, they would not be able to display their advantage in numbers in Sudan. Gong Yue naturally understood this, but she was still a little unwilling.
"Boss Jiang Cheng, how about this. How about a few of us stay and leave when it's almost finished? The majority of the troops listen to Boss and evacuate most of them. The rest only need to stay to maintain the daily operations, right? "Gong Yue's words were not without reason.
This was because the production line in East Africa was too big. Jiang Cheng really could not operate it alone. But at this time, Jiang Cheng shook his head and said, "No, we can't do this. All of you have to evacuate. This is war, not a joke. I can't take care of everyone with just Long Xing's soldiers. I won't allow any of you to bear this kind of life-threatening danger. "
After Jiang Cheng finished his speech, all the Chinese businessmen in the meeting were touched. Everyone knew that Jiang Cheng was a person who valued friendship and loyalty. But Gong Yue's blood was boiling, and she couldn't help but say, "Aren't we the same? Boss Jiang Cheng, why should you risk your life? "
At this moment, Jiang Cheng chuckled and said, "Gong Yue. I've been through more wars than you've eaten salt. How could I not know how to escape under any circumstances? Don't worry, this little scene can't deal with me. I have already made arrangements with Long Xing. Once the war starts, I will hide in the northernmost part of Sudan, completely away from the main battle zone. "
Jiang Cheng had indeed made arrangements. He even had a private jet in the north of Sudan, ready to evacuate at any time. Once the war started, Jiang Cheng did not plan to continue protecting the Dragon Merchants' factories. In such a large-scale battle, no one could protect every single factory.
Jiang Cheng could only protect himself first, and then the factories. Only when Johnson won the war would the factories be restored. Thinking of this, Jiang Cheng was even more convinced that staying was the best choice. The other Chinese businessmen staying would only make it more difficult for them to retreat.
"That's enough. You don't have to persuade me anymore. It's settled. You can't help even if you stay. You don't know how to fight, and you can't evacuate quickly. You might as well go back and take care of the domestic affairs. You've been away from the company for a long time. It's time to go back and take care of business. "
Speaking of this, everyone's expression darkened. Indeed, most of the Dragon Merchants had only gone back three or four times in the past six months. There were already a lot of things to take care of in the company. They might as well take advantage of this chaos to hide in the country and take care of the company's affairs.
"Fine. Since you said so, Brother Jiang Cheng. We won't persuade you. Contact us at any time. We'll do our best to help you in the country. I, Xiao Dao, will be the first to stand up and swear. "Xiao Dao saw that so many people could not persuade Jiang Cheng, so he did not want to persuade him anymore.
Therefore, he took the lead and followed Jiang Cheng's arrangements. The others also understood that they could not argue, so they all agreed to Jiang Cheng. The next day, the Chinese businessmen began to go back bit by bit. Only Jiang Cheng was left behind to carry out Johnson's plan. He gathered a lot of manpower and resources to build a second military base in Plumote.
Because it was a military base, it was very difficult for Jiang Cheng to hide this information. In the end, he simply used the Dragon Troops to build the base. More than three thousand Dragon Troops entered Plumote. At this moment, there was no one around Jiang Cheng. It just so happened that the resumption of the oil field in Utushi Town was also starting.
Every day, Jiang Cheng would rush to Lilumote from Utusi Town. For the next half a month. They were all tired and thin. The only people they could use were John and Ray. John Ray was one of Man Johnson's people. Although he had always been with Jiang Cheng, he never forgot that he was part of the reinforcement army.
After half a month, the military base was completed. Man Johnson began to recruit people with great fanfare. Almost all of the non-active guerrilla troops were absorbed. Because of Man Johnson's super popular presence in the north and south, many refugees joined him.
In just over a week, the volunteer army doubled in size. Nearly sixty thousand people participated in the training of the new base. Seeing that the volunteer army was getting stronger, Man Johnson began to have the faint urge to go to war. He privately told Jiang Cheng that in a month, the volunteer army would be independent and immediately attack Khartoum.
After Man Johnson made the arrangements, he immediately told Jiang Cheng not to be too high profile during this time. If he was caught, he would have to plan ahead. Jiang Cheng naturally understood that he was a businessman, not a warmonger. If he was too obvious and closed a large number of shops, it would be equivalent to selling Man Johnson in disguise.
Just as Jiang Cheng was about to report the news to the country, Li Danik suddenly made an appointment to meet with Jiang Cheng. She invited Jiang Cheng to Khartoum to attend Omar's birthday party the day after tomorrow. When Jiang Cheng saw the invitation, he was a little reluctant. In today's sensitive environment, was it really suitable to go to Khartoum?
"Mr. Jiang, I suggest you don't go. This is a conspiracy. Why didn't you be invited earlier? Why didn't they invite you a few days before the party? Logically speaking, this kind of thing should be invited at least two weeks in advance. "John Ray saw some clues at a glance. But this was not enough to prove that there was something wrong with Li Danik.
Most of the time, Jiang Cheng was not a guest. It was only when Li Danik wanted to show off that she called Jiang Cheng out. To Li Danik, Jiang Cheng was just a canary. Thinking of this, Jiang Cheng replied calmly, "I'll go. I have to go. "
If Jiang Cheng were to withdraw now, it would definitely arouse Li Danik's suspicion. At that time, as long as she investigated Jiang Cheng's recent activities, everything would be exposed. There were still two and a half weeks before Man Johnson's plan could be implemented. Jiang Cheng could not be exposed too early.
John Ray did not understand Jiang Cheng's behavior. "Mr. Jiang, it's not safe to go to Khartoum now. If something happens, the volunteer army will not be able to help. Moreover, the soldiers of the Marching Dragon are still finishing up in Plumot. "
John Ray thought for a long time, but still did not agree with Jiang Cheng's idea. Jiang Cheng shook his head. "I have to go. Li Danik has already sent people to handle this matter. If I don't go, it will make him more suspicious and I will be seen through immediately. In that case, Old Man's plan will be exposed. "
John Ray gritted his teeth and did not know what to say for a while. He absolutely did not want Jiang Cheng to go to Khartoum. After thinking for a long time, he came up with a reason. "No, the chief told me to watch you. Mr. Jiang, I can't let you leave my side at will. I have to be responsible for your safety. "
Jiang Cheng couldn't help but laugh. Even John Ray knew that he was worried for Jiang Cheng. It seemed that this trip was indeed quite risky. Jiang Cheng thought for a while and said calmly, "Don't worry. I know what to do. I'll go back and forth on the same day. I'll choose 30 soldiers of the Marching Dragon to accompany me tonight. How about it? "
The company of 30 Dragon Guards was already considered a very safe level. After all, the soldiers of the Marching Dragon were strictly trained special operations soldiers. With their protection, John Ray felt a little more at ease. But after thinking for a while, he still said.
"Mr. Jiang, why don't I go with you? Or I can accompany 30 soldiers of the Marching Dragon. That way, if there are any problems, I can also take you away immediately. " John Ray's stubborn eyes made Jiang Cheng feel helpless. If he did not agree to this condition, John Ray would probably continue to pester him.
"All right. If I leave the sight of the Marching Dragon, I'll leave full responsibility to you. How about it? This arrangement is meticulous enough, right? Don't worry, it's just a small banquet. Nothing will happen. "Jiang Cheng comforted John Ray's heart. John Ray nodded, a thoughtful look in his eyes.
The next day, the envoy from Khartoum arrived in the town of Utusi. This was the first time Jiang Cheng felt so grand. An official in red, with four guards, came to Jiang Cheng's residence in the town. The four soldiers were all armed with ceremonial firearms. They looked like flag-raising soldiers in a military parade.
"Mr. Jiang Cheng, please accept the highest courtesy of our Sudan. We invite you to the palace in Khartoum to attend President Olma's birthday banquet. " The envoy in red spoke loudly to Jiang Cheng and even made a gentlemanly gesture. It looked very amusing.
