King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer Chapter 473 457: Umbrella

Joe Ga's annoyance was truly mounting as he spoke...

It's true that Jack Heinz had a vendetta against him for killing his father, but his father had it coming.

Even leaving the legal issues aside, they were each serving their own masters on the battlefield.

As a forr mber of SEAL Team Six, instead of looking for the root causes, this guy was bringing troubles to his own doorstep...

The more Joe Ga thought about it, the angrier he got, and he started to believe his own lies.

According to Joe Ga, the root of the problem lay with the Glorious Society, but Harlotte was certainly not wronged since he was a collaborator with them...

Originally, he wanted the 'Accountant' from the Heinz family, who sounded quite remarkable.

The 'debts' accumulated by the Heinz family over decades translated into an excellent network of connections.

Moreover, they were mainly concentrated within the Arican military, which was highly beneficial for Joe Ga's military contracting company.

With access to those 'debts,' Joe Ga could reach out to the necessary contacts, and he couldn't use them to blackmail people into desperate actions like the Heinz family did, but returning the grip they had on you was certainly a huge favor, wasn't it?

If just two or three of those ten people had a sense of loyalty, then the New Jersey branch could make headway with the U.S. military.

Joe Ga didn't want to compete with the big shots; he just needed the New Jersey branch to break even and provide Monica with enough funds to operate in Washington, which would be most beneficial for P·B.

With his status, Joe Ga couldn't enter Washington posing as a competitor, otherwise he would make enemies everywhere and might not be able to withstand it.

Those magnates had their own ways of doing business, different from that of P·B, and Joe Ga didn't want them as enemies.

He just needed to secure military contracts that were most suitable for himself to stabilize P·B's international identity.

Reliance on Central Africa alone simply wasn't enough; the Central African Governnt lacked credibility and global influence, so even if the president of Central Africa clung to Joe Ga's leg and called him brother, other countries could disregard them.

But a military company registered in Arica, other countries couldn't simply ignore.

As long as Monica's lobbying efforts in Arica went smoothly, P·B could claim a legal stronghold.

In that case, the Heinz family's 'debts' would beco extrely useful!

No matter how powerful Jemma's mother was, she was with the Departnt of Justice after all, not closely related to the Pentagon.

Eric was living on tenterhooks in Liberia, relying on him would probably an waiting for years.

The Heinz family's ready-made and expedited network of connections was too good for Joe Ga to pass up.

To grant debt forgiveness as a favor, to provide benefits in return for services rendered, even Aricans couldn't be completely oblivious to family and worldly wisdom; running around with a list would help build a network of connections.

Once this network was established, as long as Monica was smart, P·B could be self-sufficient, sustaining and even expanding this network further.

As P·B grew, Joe Ga's need for a protective umbrella would increase, to so extent, this was even more important than the business in Congo.

Joe Ga had considered pledging allegiance to Africa Daddy, but the very nature of France ant that Africa was their stronghold, and P·B's developnt there was a direct competition for interests unless Joe Ga was prepared to beco a 'Black Hand' for Africa Daddy.

Joe Ga could stabilize the French in Central Africa, but that was rely a good start.

This provided a foundation for his grand strategy in Congo and opened up so room for negotiation between the two parties.

Such political maneuvering was extrely complicated, and without a strong background, it was impossible to pull off, regardless of how it felt personally, the identity of an Arican taxpayer was quite useful in this affair.

For Joe Ga, it wasn't particularly difficult to understand these matters, and at this point, his attitude towards the two survivors changed, because as long as Jack Heinz truly was as loyal and principled as they said, Joe Ga could use them to get a hold on Jack.

After all, when it ca to reasoning, Boss Qiao was an expert!

Once he had clarified Jack Heinz's current condition, Joe Ga ordered his n to tie up 'Smoker' and 'Trouble Maker' tightly, threw them into the patrol boat's cabin, then pressed the radio and said, "Postpone attacking those guys. We have to wait for the vessel coming to et them before taking action.

I'll take care of the people on the boat, but they have an important hostage with them; we need to rescue him alive."

B team's Sanderson received the order and curiously asked, "Boss, who did they capture?"

Joe Ga said with a smile, "Jack Heinz, the Sergeant Major of SEAL Team Six.

The guy made a dumb move, but he's very useful to ; don't let him die!"

His words left the public channel silent for a mont before Sanderson confird, "Boss, is Jack Heinz the one who led the attack on the gold mine? He's with the other side..."

Upon hearing this, Joe Ga, grinning, said, "He was with them at first, but not anymore. 'Trouble Maker' 'Black Hand' has caught him. Now our enemies include 6 'Trouble Makers' and 9 Chechens."

Sanderson, having listened, said, "Understood, boss. Just to confirm, we're to rescue Heinz at all costs, right?"

Upon hearing this, Joe Ga decisively replied, "Of course not. Save him if there's a chance, but if there's really no opportunity, let no one escape alive. The people outside don't need to know he's dead; we can make do."

Joe Ga could clearly hear a sigh of relief from everyone on the channel. He chuckled and shook his head, saying, "Our guys co first; everything else can take a backseat.

This ti they've only got 15 people. We have a substantial nurical advantage, so we absolutely must take them down quickly and cleanly."

Upon hearing this, Sanderson fell silent for a mont before replying sowhat helplessly, "Boss, we still haven't located them, and I've got a bad feeling about this."

Joe Ga was taken aback and said, "The village? That's impossible..."

While saying this, Joe Ga looked at Antar beside him, and said, "Owl, deploy the drones to check out the jungle villages."

From the other end of the communicator, Sanderson, after hearing Joe Ga's orders, spoke with a touch of helplessness, "Boss, if we have to wait for Trouble Maker's n to et with the rendezvous party, we can't send anyone to scout the village.

Because if I'm wrong and Trouble Maker's n discover our movent, they'll definitely inform the rendezvous party to change locations.

Even if I'm right, if our scouts trigger a fight prematurely, it would all be for naught."

After listening, Joe Ga frowned and said, "We must capture the scene where the rendezvous party ets with Trouble Maker. We need solid evidence, otherwise our efforts spent here will be aningless.

If Python and Grasshopper haven't found those guys, then they might have already infiltrated the village.

The captured enemy revealed earlier that these bastards plan to attack the village, presumably wanting to board the ships through the village's small dock upon their arrival."

Thinking more and more that he was right, Joe Ga looked at Antar, who was operating the drone, and said, "Send an overhead view of the village to everyone. These guys are experts; it's impossible for all of them to enter the village. There must be snipers on the outskirts for cover.

Find them for !"

............

At the sa ti, two helicopters from the Foreign Legion landed in Sangha Town.

As soon as the helicopters touched down, the pilots burst out toward Thompson and Tony, yelling at them furiously.

That was because as they were approaching Sangha Town, they had locked onto by anti-air missiles.

The cacophony of alarms inside the aircraft had terrified the Foreign Legionnaires to the core!

Thompson, smiling, ignored the French pilot's curses and said to a major, "Sir, welco to Sangha Town!"

Cot looked around at the local scenery, a bit surprised by the hustle and bustle of Sangha Town.

Seeing Thompson in front of him, Cot gestured for the pilot to stop and said resignedly, "I've experienced your boss's thods in Niger, but I didn't expect P·B to have anti-air missiles now."

Thompson, with a serious expression, replied, "Sir, I think there's been a misunderstanding.

The anti-air missiles were captured north of Nova City. Our boss positioned the strongest weapons in Sangha Town to protect the Princess, fearing that soone might act rashly.

We're not very familiar with how to control the anti-air missiles, but we are allies. If you need to use helicopters in the future, we'll provide you with an identification code to prevent any accidental harm."

Cot, as a mber of France's SAS and leading a team of the Foreign Legion here because he was well-acquainted with Joe Ga and having collaborated with him in Niger, knew about P·B and Joe Ga perhaps even more than Thompson did.

He didn't believe Thompson's bluff but knew well that accusing P·B without solid evidence would invite retaliation, a lesson Cot had learned first-hand.

Waving his hand to signal the pilots to shut down the aircraft, Cot looked at Thompson and asked, "Where is Princess Amina right now?

We've brought 20 n. I'll arrange a team to protect the Princess while the rest will enter the jungle outskirts of Sangha Town to hunt down those lingering rcenaries."

Thompson smiled and pointed to a small hill not far away, saying, "That's our boss's house; that's where Princess Amina is staying right now."

As he observed the 20-strong group from the Foreign Legion, Thompson hesitated for a mont before looking at Cot and said cautiously, "Sir, the Princess's safety is assured. If you really decide to go into the jungle, I suggest you leave a small squad as a reserve.

I noticed your helicopters aren't ard with ammunition. Our boss has instructed that if you need it, he can provide sufficient fuel and ammo, and, if necessary, a few Hellfire missiles."

Thompson spoke obliquely, but Cot's tension arose.

Thompson's implication was clear: he wanted Cot to keep a squad with the helicopters, ready to take off and support the soldiers entering the jungle at a mont's notice.

That was hardly a vote of confidence in the Foreign Legion, was it!

Cot had witnessed Joe Ga's incredible strategic mind – after a battle, he even managed to scrounge a dozen Hellfire missiles from a United State. Military Base.

Given that stinginess, the fact that Joe Ga was now offering Hellfires made Cot approach the situation with extra caution.
