Firepower is king

When the door slammed shut, Lloyd's expression changed quickly.

With no outsiders, Lloyd could get angry.

The hand on Gao Guang's shoulder naturally grabbed Gao Guang's collar. Then, Lloyd gritted his teeth and said, "Asshole! Do you want to kill me?"

When we are together, we can quarrel, make trouble, or even give a slap in the face when we get angry. And conversely, when we are in front of outsiders, we must show an attitude of unity.

Lloyd expresses the difference between inside and outside very well, so the highlighter doesn't get angry even if he is grabbed by the collar.

"General, there's nothing I can do about it."

Lloyd released his grip on Gao Guang's clothes and pushed Gao Guang's chest hard. Then he whispered: "Everyone except me thinks what you did is very damnable. You know what you have caused to us." How much trouble is it?”

You can pretend to be stupid in front of others as much as you like, but if it's just Lloyd, pretending to be stupid again would be an insult to Lloyd's intelligence.

Gao Guang sighed and whispered: "I don't want to, but I have no other choice. General, this was originally our business, but why did it suddenly become everyone's business? Also, you retired, Do you really think you can get the same share as others? If they respect you, they won’t take advantage of you.”

Although the expression on his face looked very angry and he was swearing, Lloyd sat back on the chair. Then he glared at Gao Guang and said sternly: "Shut up!"

He yelled to shut up, but then Lloyd lowered his voice and said, "Do you even need to say this?"

Shouting loudly to shut up is because the walls have ears. If you whisper something, you are telling the truth.

To say how much Lloyd likes Gao Guang, this is not necessarily true, but Gao Guang is right about one thing, that is, the people in the Pentagon are indeed infringing on Lloyd's interests.

Gao Guang was originally a partner of Lloyd's, a small group. For example, the business they did was at most 100 million US dollars, but Lloyd could get 30 million, and Gao Guang later became the White House of the Pentagon. As for gloves, they can do a billion-dollar business, but Lloyd can get up to three million dollars.

The numbers are definitely not accurate, but that's the story.

Pointing to the chair next to him and gesturing for Gao Guang to sit down, Lloyd lowered his voice and said, "The matter in Washington is very troublesome. The Pentagon cannot escape from this matter. Too many people know Morris's identity." , the Pentagon had to throw out a scapegoat and disguise Morris’s death as an internal uneven distribution of spoils.”

"How does it work exactly?"

"Morris had a subordinate named Monkey. What we announced to the outside world was that Monkey was dissatisfied with the treatment Morris gave him. He kidnapped Morris' children, threatened Morris, and then led Morris out of his residence and parked his car underground. The field killed him."

Gao Guang was stunned for a moment, because the scapegoat thrown by the Pentagon was indeed from a very tricky angle.

Lloyd continued in a low voice: "This matter must be explained to the public. There are too many aspects that need to be resolved. Now we have only come up with a preliminary solution. We have to complete the process. There is no more than two months." It won’t work, and there are too many departments involved, and it will cost a lot, but as long as the White House doesn’t pursue it, there shouldn’t be much of a problem.”

"Does it cost a lot of money?"

Gao Guang deliberately asked a stupid question.

"Is this something that money can handle? This requires political resources, do you understand?"

Seeing the look of realization on Gao Guang's face, Lloyd felt a little comforted, and then he deliberately said with a straight face: "So don't think that the matter is over, you are still in danger now."

Things were generally developing in the expected direction. Gao Guang nodded immediately, and then said with a guilty look on his face: "I understand it is very dangerous now, please continue."

Lloyd leaned back and said with a serious face: "Ability is secondary, attitude is important. If I didn't appreciate your attitude in doing things, I wouldn't bother to care about you!"

"Yes, yes, but general, what should I do next? That Orville, what is his purpose here? Does he want to kill me?"

Lloyd couldn't tell whether the senior official was pretending to be stupid or really didn't understand, but he did feel that Gao Guang had always respected him, so he didn't hesitate much. Lloyd continued: "If you can survive, you must first Thank you for protecting you, and also thank you to the CIA for their tough attitude, otherwise, it wouldn’t be me, but the killer who wants to kill you.”

Gao Guang immediately said: "I know the general will not ignore me."

Lloyd sighed, spread his hands, and whispered: "Orville wants to warn you that you will never be able to do the arms business in the future."

Gao Guang was stunned for a moment and said, "Can't you do the arms business?"

"Yes, everything you have done has made the Pentagon very angry, so the Pentagon will definitely choose someone else to replace Morris. No matter who replaces Morris, if you continue to do the arms business, you will be a competitor and an enemy."

Lloyd seemed to be observing Gao Guang's reaction. He spread his hands and said, "How can you do the arms business under such circumstances?"

After finally getting rid of Morris, but still unable to do the arms business, wouldn't all the highlights have been in vain?

Gao Guang felt that things shouldn't be like this. He thought about it and said, "What if I don't get arms from the US military-industrial complex?"

"When you say this, do you plan to continue selling arms?"

"Yes, I will definitely continue to sell arms. I can't do things for the Pentagon. I can also do our own business."

It is so important to run our own business. If Gao Guang really said that he would never do it again and spend tens of millions to enjoy life, it is hard to say what the consequences would be. But if he said that he would continue to do business, then Lloyd must be one of his own.

The bow is hidden when the bird is gone. The point is that the bow is hidden only after the bird is gone. The bird is not finished yet, so why hide the bow in such a hurry?

Lloyd nodded and said, "Well, yes, although I can't ship goods for the Pentagon, I can still run my own business. At the worst, I just need to avoid direct competition with the Pentagon's business."

After speaking slowly, Lloyd sighed and said, "I don't have anything special to tell you now, but you don't have to worry about being silenced. Has the CIA contacted you?"

"No, didn't say anything."

"The CIA and the Pentagon have never been very confrontational, and there is still a competitive relationship to a certain extent. The CIA is helping you this time, not because you are so important, but because the CIA does not want you to get involved. You have to understand the relationship here, and don't really You can stand with the CIA, you can cooperate, but don’t be an ally of the CIA, do you understand what I mean?”

Gao Guang immediately said: "Understood, we only cooperate and don't take sides."

Lloyd knew the relationship between Gao Guang and the CIA's Middle East Division. He himself had participated in a lot of it, so he didn't need to say too much. After reminding Gao Guang, he continued in a low voice: "The matter of killing Morris can end here. That's it. You don't have to worry about your safety or being ripped out. There are people covering up for you, but now is an extraordinary period after all. It's time to prepare. You can prepare, but don't rush to take action. Wait until the day when the meeting is held. Press conference, let’s wait until this case is completely over.”

"Okay, let me be steady first. General, how should I deal with this Lieutenant Colonel Orville? What attitude should I adopt towards him?"

Lloyd curled his lips, smiled, and said with emotion: "Why, you have caused a lot of trouble for others and cost them a lot of money. Can't you let others scold you? ?”

"If it's just a few curses, I'll definitely accept it. What I'm worried about is that I won't be able to vent my anger after a few curses."

Lloyd said calmly: "I just retired, not died."

Gao Guang stood up and said to Lloyd solemnly: "I understand, thank you General for protecting me."

Waving his hand, Lloyd said with emotion: "Go next door and sincerely apologize to the Lieutenant Colonel. If he wants to scold you, just listen. If he wants to threaten you, you will appear scared. We still have to fight against him." The people from Orville are here to show respect, and besides..."

After a pause, Lloyd hesitated, and then he continued: "The young man brought by the lieutenant colonel is a pretty good gunner, but he is only a pretty good shooter. I don't know where they got the confidence to teach them a lesson. "Excuse me, but this matter is indeed a bit tricky, because I don't think you are the kind of person who can be lectured casually."

Gao Guang was stunned for a moment, then his eyes widened and he said, "Teach me a lesson? No way, send someone to teach me a lesson about such a serious matter?"

Lloyd nodded helplessly and said, "Yes, I can't kill you, but I can always teach you a lesson. This seems a bit childish, but this is indeed the choice of many people in the army."

Why are you acting like you are fighting with gangsters? Are you at such a low level? Gao Guang was stunned for a moment and said: "Can you use a gun? Or just get beaten? But I don't want to be beaten. It hurts... "

"Who asked you to be beaten?"

Lloyd glared at Gao Guang with dissatisfaction, then touched his chin and said, "I don't know how Lieutenant Colonel Orville wants to teach you a lesson, but since he specially sent a young man here, he must also want to suppress your self-confidence. , I don’t think it’s about taking action, it’s about shooting. Well, you go next door and see what they want to do. Just follow the principle. Just listen to what they say. If they take action, just take care of it.”

This was not easy to figure out, so Gao Guang thought for a moment and said, "Well, how about taking no human life as the bottom line?"

Lloyd immediately shook his head and said: "No, the atmosphere is very tense now, and the consequences of injuring someone will be serious."

Gao Guang hesitated for a moment and said: "I see that the driver who brought us here is very proud. Otherwise, I can stimulate him and find a way to make him compete with me instead of directly taking out guns and shooting at each other. What do you think?" Sample?"

Lloyd nodded and said, "That's okay. Don't kill anyone, try not to hurt anyone. Just give it a try."
