Just as Chu Tian was pondering,
Suddenly, there was a knock on his office door.
"Come in!"
The messenger who entered saluted Chu Tian and Cai Yun and then said,
"General Staff,"
"A message came from the person monitoring Gao Ren,"
"Just now, Hao Wen, the intelligence team leader in Maruki, brought the first batch of wounded team members he found, along with the more than one-meter-tall pure gold Guan Gong statue that General Cai Yun gave him, onto the ship!"
"Also, Qin Lie's sixteen billion US dollars should be loaded onto the ship and headed north!"
Upon hearing this news, Cai Yun wasn't particularly surprised.
After all, if someone, as the Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces, loses even this much control over Maru,
Is he still a fearsome figure?
It would have become nothing more than a facade long ago!
"General Staff, what's on your mind?"
Chu Tian, who had been deep in thought just a moment ago, immediately smiled upon hearing Cai Yun's question.
"I think I know why Gao Ren only accepted the benefits and refused to agree to your request!"
Upon hearing this,
Cai Yun's heart tightened immediately!
Did he guess something?
That's impossible! If those bodyguards could be bribed, would they have suffered such a crushing defeat in the war decades ago?
"General Staff, what have you thought of?"
Faced with Cai Yun's question, Chu Tian did not answer directly.
Instead, she took a document from the drawer and handed it to him.
"Take a look for yourself!"
Out of curiosity, Cai Yun opened the file and took a look.
Upon seeing only details of Gao Ren's past arms deals with the north, Cai Yun's doubts quickly turned into even greater hesitation.
"General Staff,"
"These materials are almost all publicly available... Is there any special meaning behind them?"
Seeing the confusion on Cai Yun's face, Chu Tian laughed and said,
"Take a close look at the changes in Gao Ren's arms transaction figures!"
Upon hearing Chu Tian's suggestion, Cai Yun looked at the document in his hand again.
Two minutes later, Cai Yun, who had just closed the file, had a serious expression on his face.
"Chief of Staff, Gao Ren's previous transactions with the North have been very stable, ranging from 2 million to 5 million US dollars!"
"And after Xu Zhengyang appeared next to Gao Ren, the amount doubled!"
Upon receiving this answer, Chu Tian's expression immediately became even happier.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"You're right!"
"But you didn't reveal the real core,"
Upon hearing that there was also a kernel, Cai Yun's face immediately showed an expression of needing to learn, and he asked,
"Please enlighten me, General Staff!"
Seeing the eager expression on Cai Yun's face, Chu Tian took a puff of his cigarette and said,
"It's very simple,"
"Before Xu Zhengyang became Gao Ren's bodyguard, after Gao Ren killed Liu Yaozu, Li Wenyao, and others,"
"He's not in the habit of sending all his dollars north,"
"But after Xu Zhengyang came to Gao Ren's side, whether it was the trip to the Golden Triangle,"
"Or is it the bond that Qin Lie bought for 1.6 billion US dollars, or the priceless pure gold statue you gave him?"
"But without exception, they were all given to the north..."
"General Cai, should I continue?"
Chu Tian has made it so clear, yet Cai Yunyao still can't understand why he's still doing this undercover work.
Before Xu Zhengyang arrived, Gao Ren could still submit false accounts to embezzle funds.
But now that Xu Zhengyang has arrived, Gao Ren, who can't submit false accounts, has no choice but to hand over all the money he's plundered...
In this situation,
Let alone a short mule from a noble family, even a saint would be unhappy!
"Chief of Staff, do you mean Gao Ren is suffering in silence?"
Hahahaha,
Chu Tian laughed again.
"More than that!"
"I've always wondered why the North would be so generous as to give Gao Ren the position of Major General!"
"Now I understand,"
"This position is not only for show, but also to prepare them for getting rid of Gao Ren in the future!"
"Give him a regimental commander, and then find a reason to kill Gao Ren. That's like them discarding him after they've served their purpose in the north."
"Giving Gao Ren a military commander position and then finding a reason to kill him is Gao Ren's own greed—a snake trying to swallow an elephant!"
"If it weren't to make Gao Ren expose his own weakness,"
Why is the North forcing Gao Ren to send all the money he plundered back to the North?
"Don't people in the north know that if you want a donkey to pull a millstone, you have to feed it some grass?"
After listening to Chu Tian's analysis, Cai Yun once again asked in a very cooperative manner,
"So, Chief of Staff, you mean...?"
"Then give Gao Ren some benefits,"
"We must provoke Gao Ren's displeasure!!!"
"yes,"
Just after Cai Yun turned around, Chu Tian picked up the phone again and made a call.
"Add another battalion of guards to the biological weapons factory!"
"At the same time, arrest anyone who appears within a ten-kilometer radius of the biological weapons factory!"
"Yes, General Staff!"
The next morning,
After a five-hour journey on a merchant ship, Hao Wen stood on his own country's soil again after ten years.
A tear welled up in her eyes.
These tears held both longing for their hometown and sorrow for their fallen comrades...
"Team Leader Hao, I am Commander Xu's bodyguard,"
"Commander Xu has been waiting for a long time, please come with me!"
Hao Wen looked at the person in front of him, then nodded and said,
