Confessions of a Salesman

Chapter 1528 Changes in the situation

After drinking, I didn't know what was going on, but I didn't want to live in the place that Brother Hua arranged for me. I went to the cemetery again by accident, and came to Zhou Papi's residence again. Lao Zai opened the door for me wisely , as if he knew I was going.

I knocked on Nangong's door, and just lay on her bed without saying anything. I seemed to think her bed was particularly comfortable to sleep in, and she was not surprised at all. She was wearing silk pajamas, just lying quietly Beside me, put your arms around me and rest your head on your shoulders.

However, this night did not allow me to sleep until dawn, Nangong woke up suddenly when there was a knock on the door, or she didn't sleep at all, she got up gently, opened the door, and I woke up too, just to prevent myself Embarrassed, still pretending to be asleep, there was Laozi's voice outside the door, seeming a little flustered.

Nangong returned to the room, changed his clothes, and then pushed me. I opened my eyes and asked, "What happened?"

Nangong frowned and said, "Something happened in the urban area!"

I sat up and walked out of the room with her.

Lao Zai was waiting for us anxiously outside, and said to me: "The first public opinion poll of the general election came out, and the opposition was far ahead with 73% support rate. The ruling party knows that it is doomed to lose this time, so it needs to change the rules. , was strongly opposed by the opposition party and directly launched an armed coup. The incumbent president was directly imprisoned. Kumba, as the top figure in the military, was attacked immediately. And at a place 20 kilometers away from the urban area, two lines of defense were set up. Now they are exchanging fire, and the situation is very unstable!

After Kumba comes back, he will summon Mr. Du, Essen and our eldest lady to make the final struggle!Let me come back and inform the eldest lady to go to the meeting!Once the two lines of defense fall, the opposition party may take over here, and we may become cannon fodder! "

Nangong stopped Laozi from speaking, looked at me and asked, "Are you going?"

It felt like she was asking me, "Are you afraid?"

I replied flatly: "As long as they let me participate, of course I will!"

Nangong hummed and said, "Let's go!"

Then he ordered Lao Zai: "Arrange everyone, family members and non-combatants, evacuate here now, go to the camp first, and leave early tomorrow morning!"

I hastily stopped and said: "You make too much noise like this, they will know immediately, they may kill an example first in order to stabilize the morale of the army! Let's go, we must go, but we can't go so hastily. Take them to the camp and mix with the crowd. I guess many tourists and people here will run away after knowing the news! I will find you a connector over there. The place you said, someone will meet you when you get there!"

Nangong nodded gratefully to me.

On the way, I thought about it and analyzed: "You are the weakest and have no ability to change the situation of the battle, so the most likely thing for Kumba is to sacrifice you, and what you can do is to directly assassinate the leader of the opposition party! You must not accept this kind of task, no matter whether you succeed or not, you will be a scapegoat! If you succeed, they will not admit it, it was their instigation, if you fail, no one will know what happened after you die?"

Nangong asked sadly: "But what can I do? If I don't agree to them, they may kill me directly. If I promise them, I will die!"

I shook my head and said, "You still have a bargaining chip! If you don't die, they dare not touch your people, show your arrogance, whoever dares to touch you, let them die before you, your assassination ability is not only to scare people?"

Nangong suddenly gained confidence, and nodded to me gratefully again.

When passing by the casino, Mr. Du happened to come out. Seeing the two of us walking together, he was a little surprised at first, but immediately regained his composure and asked, "Why did you come here together?"

I smiled and replied: "Take care of some private matters, we just met and went to the village together!"

Mr. Du asked with an oh: "You know everything?"

I nodded and said, "I heard a little bit!"

Mr. Du asked me to get into the front car with Nangong, and told Laozai, Guan Ze and Shiyou to sit in the back car.

The car started, and Mr. Du said seriously: "The situation seems to be really serious. They used to fight a lot, but it has nothing to do with us. This time it's different. It's really a fight. Rise up! My friends in the urban area sent me a message telling me that Kumba had lost a company of troops before he escaped! The opposition will get rid of him no matter what this time! Especially if the new president After taking power, he and his family will be uprooted, which means that those of us who depend on him for survival will be expelled, or directly become the first victims of the new political party!"

I questioned: "Don't they think about economic issues? They really want to cut off all the business here, and their life may not be easy after they come to power!"

Mr. Du shook his head and said: "The new political party is different. They would rather sacrifice the national economy than drive us moths out of their country! Don't mind, these are their exact words!"

I groaned and said: "It's not that you and Kumba are tied together in the same line. It's very unwise to do so! Either they don't know your true strength, or they are real. You guys think that you and Kumba are of one mind!"

Mr. Du frowned slightly and said, "You? Don't you think you can still be alone now?"

I shrugged and said, "It's not that I want to pick myself out, it's just that my role in it is negligible. I neither have my own power nor the ability to return to heaven!"

Mr. Du raised his brows and said with a slight smile, "You underestimate yourself too much. They all asked you to attend this meeting by name, but I didn't recommend it!"

When we got to the place and got out of the car, we could see that the inside was no longer as loose as before. A large number of military vehicles were pulling materials out, and many wounded and sick were transported off the battlefield.

Naturally, my mind is not on this war. Whoever wins or loses has nothing to do with me. I even hope that the opposition will come over quickly. I am more looking for Feixue to see if he has come out to help the wounded. , See if I can find Nian Gengxi, I will not let him go.

I was absent-minded, and was taken to the top floor of the tower. There was a room full of people, and Kumba was roaring, arranging the strategy for the battlefield ahead, and several officers were scolded by him.

Seeing that everyone has arrived, he waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter who you are, let's all go out!"

The officers knew that they had nothing to do, so they all withdrew one after another. Everyone knew the rules, and the bodyguards also left.

When I was still hesitating whether to go out, Eisen stood behind me, smiled and said, "You sit next to me!"

Looking at Bao'er's resentful eyes, I walked out. I was a little proud and sat next to Essen generously, but I immediately felt ashamed of myself for being so complacent. I felt like I was competing with them .

Kumba watched everyone walk down, stood in the center, and said: "We have completely broken with the opposition. I set up the last two lines of defense 20 kilometers away from here. Once the line of defense is breached, our area will be destroyed." The Pure Land will no longer exist! The battle is still at a stalemate, but with the strength I have now, I can't last long. Therefore, I hope that everyone here can do their best and use your best resources to help me !

There is an old saying in your China: If a cunning rabbit dies and a dog cooks, if I am finished, I think what will happen to all of you here. If you are here with you, the property invested for so many years will also be in vain!Therefore, I hope everyone here can join me in resisting foreign enemies! "

Everyone fell silent.

Kumba saw that no one responded, so he directly asked by name: "Mr. Du, can you make a statement first? If you really call, this place is gone, and you will be in your casino soon, and everything will be confiscated by then! "

Mr. Du also had no choice but to say: "As far as I know, with your current strength, it is impossible to counterattack anyway, so what is the point of your persistence? Why do you want to fight a war that is doomed to fail? Shall we join? The people under my command are not soldiers on the battlefield, don’t tell me you let them hold weapons and go to war with the soldiers on the battlefield, that’s like praying to stop the car, let them go to die!”

Kumba said angrily: "Then you just wait here to die?"

Mr. Du shook his head and said, "You have to tell me, what is the meaning of our participation in this battle? Why do we have to sacrifice in vain, just to delay your death?"

Kumba was furious, and when he was about to draw out his gun, Essen said: "The situation hasn't reached that point yet, as long as we persist until the end of the negotiation, we can't let them Enter here, if they come in, no matter what the outcome of their negotiations is, our lives and property will not be guaranteed!"

Mr. Du asked puzzledly: "Negotiation? Hand over power peacefully? After handing over, will we ignore it? Will Kumba be let go? This is unrealistic!"

Kumba pointed at Mr. Du and cursed like crazy: "You ungrateful traitor, do you want to hand me over to receive a reward? I'll kill you now!"

Mr. Du lit a cigar and said calmly: "My subordinates have already controlled the power supply and transportation roads inside! If you kill me, I can end this battle early! I will return to the casino, and I still have negotiations Do you dare to kill me? Can you kill me? You say I am ungrateful? Over the years, who brought you wealth, who made you No.1 in the military in politics? But how did you Repaying me? Increased harvest every year? Taxation step by step, and disrespect to me? When I cooperated with your father, you were still a brat!"

The atmosphere became tense again. I guess Essen didn't expect that the wily Mr. Du had already controlled the transportation road and the power system. Listen to me first, the opposition does not want to use armed riots to seize state power now, which is of no benefit to them at all. Even so, if they win, the final result is that the country's economy has suffered a serious blow, and their regime It will not be stable either! Therefore, we are only negotiating now, otherwise the former president would have been beaten to death long ago!"

Mr. Du said with an oh: "I would like to hear the details!"

Essen said again: "Negotiations are for the president to recognize the result of the popular election. If they still win the second vote, he should accept it frankly! Now the most difficult thing to win is public opinion. He is doomed to step down. It's just whether he can accept it or not. !"

Mr. Du snorted coldly: "Even if he can accept it, do you think our general Kumba can accept it? Will the new regime accept him, this general? Just because of this crap in his family, we have maintained the situation we have maintained for many years. It was broken. How much money have we spent over the years and what is it for? Isn’t it a stable and stable external environment? Before this general election, I have reminded him countless times that public opinion is the most important thing! This country is not a Two people can get through with money! You have seen the result now!"

Essen was also a little displeased and said: "Then you mean, as long as you hand over Kumba, you think they won't attack us and allow us to continue doing business on their territory? You probably Don’t remember, what is the banner they are playing this time? If you want to return your country’s property to your own country, we foreigners have to get out of their country!”

Mr. Du said indifferently: "My casino can be handed over to their country at any time, and I can withdraw from this country at any time!"

Kumba was already extremely angry: "You seem to have forgotten that I am still here, and the army here still listens to me. I can order them at any time to kill you first! Hand me over? Are you too complacent too early? ?”

Essen finally couldn't bear it and said: "Shut your stinky mouth! Your army? You have a fart army. Your army was wiped out when you evacuated! Those are my people You are not a mercenary, you have been caught and hanged by them long ago! My patience is limited, you just sit there honestly and listen to us discuss your fate! Otherwise, I will hand you over right now!"

Kumba was furious: "What are you talking about? Come on, arrest them all, drag them out and kill them!"

There was no movement outside the door, and Essen said disdainfully, "Go to the window and have a look yourself! Where are all your people?"

Kumba walked to the window in despair and yelled: "You bastards! I'm going to kill you all!" After speaking, he took out his gun, opened the window, and fired several shots crazily out of the window.
