Rejecting Qinghua Baoyan, I became a military officer

"Any more?"

Xu Ye glanced at the listening device on the table and asked without expression.

This was the second place Xu Ye had led them to search. After teaching them about the first house, Xu Ye personally demonstrated it to them.

With their existing experience and Xu Ye's guidance, they shouldn't be treated like novices.

One word, fast!

Teach quickly, practice quickly, and succeed quickly!

After all, Xu Ye didn't want to spend too much time here; he wanted to finish as soon as possible, get back to China quickly.

"Yes!"

You looked at me, I looked at you, and finally Aziz answered with a forced smile.

Having witnessed Xu Ye's prowess, Aziz also took the initiative to join in.

He didn't want to be replaced by his subordinates, so he had to maintain mutual progress and also let Saddam see his efforts.

Yes, the latter point is more important!

"Very good, next place!"

Xu Ye smiled slightly and waved his hand.

"call!"

Upon hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Judging from Xu Ye's expression just now, they thought they had really missed something!
Xu Ye turned around with a slight smile on his lips, clearly satisfied with their reaction.

If there were any omissions, Xu Ye wouldn't care that Aziz was among them; he would show absolutely no mercy.

With a solid foundation, the added boost of his teaching style, and his personal demonstration, it would be strange if Xu Ye didn't get angry if so many people still couldn't grasp it!
"You all did a great job today, I'm very satisfied. Congratulations on passing this practical assessment!"

Around 5 p.m., after the last spot had been "cleaned up," Xu Ye gathered the team together.

Xu Ye had observed everyone's performance and there was no way anyone would try to take advantage of the situation.

They passed this subject!
"Okay, disband!"

Without further ado, Xu Ye ordered the group to disperse.

In winter in Moscow, it gets dark very quickly; it won't be long before it's dark.

As for whether to continue tonight?

That's impossible!

It's not like we're in China, it's our own people, Xu Ye wouldn't be so selfless!
When you're abroad, you have to follow the rules, right?

Xu Ye doesn't want to be treated like a beast of burden!

"Salman!"

Aziz quickened his pace and caught up with Xu Ye, walking alongside him.

"Aziz, you're amazing!" Xu Ye exclaimed.

This is not flattery, but a factual assessment.

As the current head of security for Saddam Hussein, his loyalty is naturally beyond question.

If necessary, Aziz would absolutely sacrifice himself without hesitation, just like his predecessor, Muhammad.

Not only is his loyalty unquestionable, but Aziz has also earned Xu Ye's approval in terms of ability.

"Thank you!"

Aziz said with a wry smile, "Compared to you, I'm still far behind!"

Aziz, who joined the Iraqi army at the end of the Iran-Iraq War, had seen countless soldiers, from Persia and Europe, but he had never seen such a formidable and all-around warrior as Xu Ye.

As Saddam Hussein's confidant, Aziz naturally knew that Xu Ye's main job was actually as a pilot, and one of the world's top pilots at that.

But it was precisely because he knew all this that Aziz felt even more powerless when facing Xu Ye—he was just too awesome!

Most importantly, Xu Ye himself is still very young. It's not that foreigners think Chinese people look young; he is indeed not that old.

You know, when I was Xu Ye's age, I was just a common soldier!

"I just have better talent!" Xu Ye waved his hand with a smile. "After my special training, you will improve a lot in all aspects!"

Xu Ye's words were not an exaggeration; compared to ordinary people, he is indeed very talented in terms of physical abilities and other aspects.

Of course, in Xu Ye's view, his success today is also inseparable from a lot of hard work.

Even now, Xu Ye will not slack off; he will not slacken or stop on his path of studying hard.

Killing and fighting are just occasional occurrences; the real challenge is daily grinding, which is a long-term endeavor that, with its steady and persistent nature, accumulates into substantial gains.

“I believe it will!” Aziz said with conviction.

In just two days, Aziz had already felt a visible change and believed Xu Ye's words without a doubt.

As for whether he could reach or even surpass Xu Ye's level, Aziz dared not even think about it.

talent!

Aziz also strongly agrees with this point, not only agreeing but also having personal experience with it.

Like him, Aziz was far superior to his contemporaries in shooting and hand-to-hand combat.

Otherwise, how could he have gotten to where he is today?

Of course, to become Saddam Hussein's confidant, it's not just about ability; loyalty is even more important.

Loyalty that is not absolute is utter disloyalty.

Otherwise, the greater the ability, the greater the destructive power.

As for his status as a fellow townsman of Saddam Hussein, that's just one of the advantages, since there are many people from Saddam Hussein's hometown.

"Your Excellency Salman, sir, please join us for a meal!"

Shadak's personal butler greeted the two who were chatting and spoke respectfully.

"Salman, you should go over there quickly!" Aziz said with some envy.

As a fervent follower of Saddam, Aziz was naturally envious of Xu Ye's treatment with Saddam, and his determination was strengthened once again: he must train hard and protect Saddam!
That's right, even though Shadak is now a "stray dog," most people in the manor are still just as enthusiastic about him.

Xu Ye was naturally aware of this.

It must be said that religion is very effective at manipulating people's minds.

Of course, the most fundamental reason is that Saddam Hussein caused significant losses to the United States and became an Arab hero.

Otherwise, if things were like they were in the previous life, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that everyone would turn against them.

"Okay, let's talk again sometime!"

Xu Ye smiled bitterly to himself, but had to force a smile on his face.

He knew that Shadama was showing him respect and importance, but Xu Ye really didn't want to eat with Shadama.

It's not that he's too reserved or can't enjoy the food; when it comes to food, Arabic cuisine is more to Xu Ye's liking, and he won't let his stomach suffer.

However, he couldn't resist Shadak's blatant "demands" from him!

Agreeing was out of the question, but Xu Ye couldn't give a blunt refusal either; he was in a real bind!
All I can say is that I'm not "green tea" enough!
……

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, the first month of the lunar calendar is almost over.

After two weeks of training, with the motto "train until you drop dead," pushing each person to their limits, it was brutal, but the progress was tremendous.

Putting everything else aside, just looking at their energy and spirit, anyone can see that they are completely different from what they were two weeks ago.

If they were once a group of special forces soldiers, they have now reached a basic level comparable to the Wolf Warriors. Of course, this is only a basic level; they still need to work hard to achieve victory.

"Salman, I'll leave tomorrow's itinerary to you!"

After dinner tonight, Shadama put down his teacup and made a somewhat solemn request.

Thinking of Shadama's clumsy attempt at brewing tea, Xu Ye felt a pang of emotion.

To have more to talk about, Shadama started drinking tea instead of coffee a few days ago.

Moreover, in less than half a month, Shadama and Kusai had given him more than twenty gifts of all sizes...

There was no attempt to hide his thoughts at all.

"Sir, you can rest assured!"

Xu Ye then put down his teacup and made his promise.

During this period, for his own safety, Shadama declined most of the invitations. If he couldn't refuse, he would have his son, Kusai, attend in his place.

However, tomorrow's schedule is different. Saddam Hussein has to go to the Kremlin, and he can't refuse; he has to attend.

Shadama may disregard the feelings of others, but he, now "living under someone else's roof," must give face to that man.

Besides, Shadak also wanted to get help from that man!

Without that man's approval, many things would be difficult to proceed.

Of course, money is essential.

"I'm relieved to hear you say that!" Shadama thought to himself with a sense of peace.

Compared to the security guarantees from the Russian side, Shadama trusted Xu Ye's security guarantees more.

Shadama firmly believed that even if something unexpected happened, with Xu Ye around, he would be able to escape unscathed.

“However, sir, according to relevant intelligence, something unexpected might happen tomorrow!” Xu Ye added.

The past two weeks have not been peaceful either.

Of course, no real harm was caused; it was just an attempted food poisoning that was discovered.

As for who is behind it all?

A week has passed, and the Russian authorities still haven't given an answer.

Neither Shadam nor Xu Ye were surprised by this.

Reporting to the authorities was just a normal procedure, not a genuine desire to know the outcome.

It's very simple. This is no longer Iraq, where Saddam Hussein has absolute authority, but Russia. Some necessary procedures still need to be followed.

Even within Russia, not everyone welcomes Saddam Hussein's exile.

That man is still too young.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have been hit by several anti-aircraft missiles in their own country.

The path to becoming an "Emperor" still has some time to go.

However, Xu Ye also knew that because of this Iraq War, this man's growth was much faster and he became much tougher than in the original timeline.

It's very simple. Even in Russia, not everyone dares to go head-to-head with the United States.

There are quite a few people who advocate surrender and compromise!

Even that man applied to join the B contract more than once, but he was never accepted.

Of course, even though growth has been much faster, the situation in Russia is very complex, and that man's assurances cannot be completely trusted.

In short, your life is your own, and if possible, don't entrust your safety to others.

"But don't worry, this is within our capabilities!"

Before Shadam could speak, Xu Ye reiterated his assurance.

He was informed by relevant domestic departments about this potential attack, but the intelligence was vague and could only be considered a warning.

In contrast, Xu Ye knew much more.

During this period, Xu Ye did not only conduct special training for his bodyguards, but also spent his spare time hacking into the servers of many world-renowned intelligence agencies, including Russia.

Top-secret information may not be readily available.

However, with some relevant information and the logical analysis of a super-powerful brain, it is still possible to deduce a rough estimate.

For example, in this attack on Saddam Hussein, the relevant departments in China received very vague intelligence, while Russia's intelligence agencies had slightly more detailed information.

However, there was no specific attack plan.

In contrast, the US intelligence agencies, which were behind the scenes, had much more information.

With this comprehensive understanding, Xu Ye got a pretty good idea of ​​the situation.

That's why Xu Ye made such a promise to Shadama!

If he didn't even have this much confidence, Xu Ye wouldn't have let Shadak accept that man's invitation.

It's normal for someone in their seventies to have health problems, right?

As long as Saddam Hussein continues to spend money on Russia, whether it's buying weapons or making business investments, his protection will not disappear.

Anyway, we've already offended the US, so we're not afraid to offend them again!

Furthermore, relations between the two sides have never improved since the end of World War II.

"Salman, should we have Kusai attend in my place tomorrow?"

Now that it was just the two of them in the study, Shadama had no more reservations. After hesitating for a moment, he asked.

Recently, Shadama has been reading a lot of books about China and often consults Xu Ye. There are some things that Shadama agrees with.

For example, a wise person does not stand under a dangerous wall!
Furthermore, a son of a wealthy family should not sit under a dangerous roof!
If you don't know, then never mind.

Now that he knows there might be danger tomorrow, if Shadak still goes, he has to hesitate.

"Sir, I cannot offer advice on this matter. I can only guarantee your safety!"

Xu Ye was not surprised at all by Shadama's question and answered calmly.

If it were him, a normal person with power and money, he probably wouldn't have put himself in such danger.

I'm alive, and I lack nothing!
Once you're dead, you're nothing!

Bullets don't recognize you just because you're rich and powerful; they'll still shoot you in the head if they want to.

Shadama was not surprised by Xu Ye's answer; it was within his expectations.

After all, Xu Ye can represent China to some extent, so it's normal that he doesn't want to express his opinion.

"Sigh, I still have to go!"

After a long pause, Shadam sighed, somewhat helplessly.

At this moment, the feeling of a tyrant's demise is so clear in him.

"understand!"

Xu Ye was not surprised at all.

Living under someone else's roof inevitably means being unable to control one's own destiny; it's impossible to do whatever one wants like one did in Iraq before.

In fact, one cannot do whatever one wants in Iraq.

Saddam Hussein's attempt to sell oil and switch to Euros as the settlement currency directly offended the United States, leading to its national collapse and exile. (End of Chapter)
