Fatal Strike: Mercenary Road of Gunfire Ranger-Chapter 910 - 850: The Arctic Fox Hits a Hard Wall

The negotiations went smoothly!

Colonel Clement and Colonel Lynch took turns calling their superiors, confirming Mountain Eagle's intentions and solutions, forming a verbal agreement...

Behind Colonel Lynch, as Mountain Eagle suspected, was Admiral Robinson, the big shot from the Alaska Command.

Before coming to Alaska, this big shot had long served in the Joint Staff, then transitioned through the air force commander position for two years before becoming the commander of the Alaska Command.

Strictly speaking, promotions within the US Army have stringent requirements, especially for core positions like battle zone commander, where the usual promotion path is orderly.

That is, after the commander retires, in most cases, the main officer of the local military branch assumes the position.

For example, the commander of the Pacific Fleet generally takes over the position of Indo-Pacific Commander.

But this big shot, unexpectedly came from the 'Joint Staff Strategic Plans and Policies Department', which is somewhat unusual.

This general with a heavy political background jumping from the Pentagon to Alaska as a battle zone commander has a strong air of gilding.

Mountain Eagle was cautious about speculating on the specifics, but Admiral Robinson's background and his style of handling affairs were quite intriguing.

To express his enthusiasm, Mountain Eagle personally cooked dinner for the two heavyweights of the Alaska military...

When Colonel Lynch left by helicopter, Ten Million Dollars swiftly entered the account of the Financial Office in Singapore under the cover of several shell companies.

This big shot clearly didn't align with William Hurt, so he decisively chose to abandon the El Salvador project and instead conducted risky investments with Mountain Eagle's Financial Office.

Mountain Eagle knew well that the Ten Million Dollars was merely a probe...

The 'friendship' between the two parties needed to withstand tests before forming a positive connection; many of his ideas required a pleasant collaboration foundation.

However, Mountain Eagle maintained an optimistic attitude towards slow and meticulous work, and he would never mind having more investors...

The foundation of the Financial Office in Singapore wasn't particularly solid, and he urgently needed influential figures like Admiral Robinson to bolster the list of investors.

From the choices of this admiral, Mountain Eagle clearly sensed that he might not be the kind of military big shot who gained his position solely through personal abilities but rather a spokesperson for some interest group.

The most straightforward reasoning is that William Hurt, as the leader of the Senate Support Group, was someone no high-ranking military officer should miss.

This senator and the interest group he led managed to scale the chemical weapon destruction business in the United States to tens and hundreds of billions, evidencing the exaggeration of the power his represented group wielded.

Any high-ranking military officer who held expectations for his future, from a personal desire perspective, shouldn't miss the chance to connect with such a big shot unless his represented group had a power and interest conflict with William Hurt.

Or perhaps Admiral Robinson couldn't make choices wholly independently, especially in these politically significant matters...

There were subtleties involved, which Mountain Eagle swiftly grasped, and held even higher expectations for Admiral Robinson.

Having support behind him meant he could leverage larger power and influence!

Simultaneously, having backing meant as a spokesperson pushed to the forefront, he found it challenging to suppress the desire for personal gain while supporting the interest group.

The logic is simple; the power and benefits brought by the 'seat' belong to the collective, but the money in my account is mine!

This situation hugely benefited Mountain Eagle, so when Colonel Lynch left by helicopter, he reserved an investment limit of 1 million US Dollars for him.

No need for him to invest money; as long as the 'friendship' progressed smoothly, Colonel Lynch could withdraw 7% annually, and if their cooperation deepened after five years, Colonel Lynch could take back this 1 million US Dollars anytime.

Colonel Lynch clearly understood this was akin to an option, attracting him to sincerely maintain bilateral relations; if his boss's performance wasn't as expected by Mountain Eagle, the so-called 1 million US Dollars would be but an illusion.

Nevertheless, he still nodded to accept Mountain Eagle's olive branch, for even if things went wrong, it would incur no loss, merely conform to the situation.

Mountain Eagle didn't hide anything from Colonel Clement when sending Colonel Lynch away, and Colonel Lynch didn't intentionally avoid the matter either...

This approach is unprofessional, but it was indeed significant comfort for Colonel Clement.

Since Admiral Robinson could determine his life and death, and now Colonel Lynch reached an agreement with Mountain Eagle, taking benefits openly suggested he had evaded the scapegoat crisis.

Unlike Colonel Lynch, eager to return to his boss for debriefing, Colonel Clement, who narrowly escaped death, simply stayed in the village, directly deployed a team of trusted personnel to secure his safety while assisting villagers in setting up a temporary base there.

The opportunity painted by Mountain Eagle was appealing, and before results emerged, Colonel Clement preferred utilizing cooperation to deepen ties...

After all, it wasn't him doing the work, nor spending the money!

The matter was quite intriguing, as besides facing the threat of four aerial bombs, Mountain Eagle was an outsider in this affair.

Yet in the end, due to his unique experiences and credibility, he seized the greatest reward!

Not only did it make a profit that covered the previous investment, but it also developed several allies in Alaska.

After everyone went to rest at night, Mountain Eagle settled the children down to sleep, sat on the cold terrace for about ten minutes, and then returned to the room, opened the computer, and inserted the USB drive...

The first thing that came into view was a folder...

After opening it, he found that it was full of drug dealer information!

Mountain Eagle clicked on a file and saw the watermark on the document; only then did he realize that it was actually intelligence files from the DEA (United States Drug Enforcement Administration).

Perhaps because Admiral Robinson's side was in a hurry, the files weren't thoroughly categorized. Inside were not only the profiles of Sinaloa Group's drug dealers but also those from other drug trafficking organizations.

The files encompassed years of DEA investigations, including known high-level figures in the drug trafficking organizations, some information on their channels at the US-Mexico Border, and even data on their networks within the United States.

Some of this information has lost its timeliness, and certainly isn't comprehensive, but if combined with satellite images provided by the Air Force Intelligence Bureau, it saves Mountain Eagle a lot of trouble.

However, these are no longer enough to capture Mountain Eagle's attention. He just casually flipped through them and then sent these files packaged to Daria, asking her to continue refining the plan in Mexico.

It's been half a month, and that guy Tiago's physical condition has mostly recovered under the stimulation of drugs. In no more than two weeks, he will be able to 'break out.'

For this, Daria is preparing a good show in El Salvador to make Tiago's breakout more credible.

This information is more useful to Daria!

Mountain Eagle focused his attention on another folder...

The folder contained many high-resolution photos, all of which were satellite images of Iraqi military bases.

There were photos taken both by day and night. Some were marked with important buildings, and a 9-line bombing table was also attached, along with a rather simplified attack plan.

Additionally, there was a file that spanned hundreds of pages, featuring a guy called 'Hyena' as the main character.

Mountain Eagle carefully read the file and felt like he was looking at a legend, and this guy, like him, is a Chinese.

This guy built a city in Central Africa as if he was running a charity and then assisted the Libyan National Army in capturing the Mediterranean outlet Tubruk, and subsequently advanced into Iraq, opening a humanitarian corridor straight to Syria.

The file contained a detailed account of this 'Hyena's' history, but the person who wrote the file seemed very vague in their evaluation of 'Hyena,' seemingly not quite understanding 'Hyena's' choices in many instances.

Mountain Eagle skimmed through the information and quickly realized that, although he had never met this 'Hyena,' he had some indirect connection with him!

After he went on a killing spree in Los Angeles, this 'Hyena' arrived there soon after, heavily hit the Sinaloa Group, and robbed a drug dealer's cash vault, eventually causing a media frenzy by abducting a Middle Eastern princess in full public view.

The media frenzy even overshadowed the Snowden negotiations related to Mountain Eagle and the several massacres that occurred in Los Angeles.

Moreover, some of the personnel 'Hyena' used in Los Angeles were from the 'Camel's' security training camp, and they were even fellow trainees with 'Sealion' and 'Donkey' in the camp.

Of course, this is purely coincidental and might not even count as an indirect connection, but when 'Hyena' discovered Al-Qaeda and ISIS plots in Libya and successfully carried out a hostage rescue operation in Monaco, it was related to Mountain Eagle.

Because of the 'Refugee Group,' Mountain Eagle has been tracking the Death Angel's whereabouts...

Initially, the 'Refugee Group's' attention was focused on Canada, but after the events in Libya and Monaco, they realized that the Death Angel had tricked them.

The Death Angel deliberately leaked the operation to lure the 'Refugee Group' into tracking him, thereby covering for the bomb experts rescued from the sea prison going to Libya, where they created several WMD chemical weapons and dirty bombs.

It wasn't until 'Hyena' in Monaco thwarted the terrorists' chemical weapon action that the 'Refugee Group' and other intelligence organizations around the world realized that those dirty bombs were ISIS's trump card.

Due to intelligence isolation, the 'Refugee Group' was seeing things a bit clearer than others...

From the disappearance of VX nerve gas materials in the United States, Death Angel had set the stage for a major drama...

He used Libya as a starting point, using chemical weapons as a smokescreen to draw everyone's attention, then stealthily smuggled the dirty bombs into the United States.

When the Refugee Group found something amiss and turned back to continue their investigation in Canada, the Death Angel had vanished.

This 'Hyena' has the standard military style, acting extremely straightforward and violent.

In Libya, he uncovered part of Death Angel's plan, incidentally eliminating those dangerous prisoners who escaped from the sea prison, but he left little traceable evidence and clues. Now that Death Angel has vanished, the Refugee Group is facing huge difficulties.

Besides the Death Angel, other matters originally had little to do with Mountain Eagle, but now this 'Hyena' has gone to Iraq and clashed with Arctic Fox...

Mountain Eagle couldn't help but feel deep concern!

If the contents of this file are true, then Arctic Fox is certainly in for a rude awakening this time!
