Rejecting Qinghua Baoyan, I became a military officer

"Oh ho, it's a multi-pronged scheme!"

After returning to his room, Xu Ye turned on the device and, after reviewing the collected information, expressed some surprise.

No wonder it was the American intelligence agencies behind it; their methods are truly professional.

The best thing is to keep intelligence secret, but that's also the most difficult thing to do.

Once leaked, even the slightest clue can be detected in advance by certain individuals or organizations.

When it comes to Xu Ye, they certainly won't miss it.

With his world-class hacking skills and the cutting-edge equipment he redeemed from the system store, Xu Ye was still able to find a lot of information in a short time, even in a metropolis like Moscow.

It's just that internet technology, especially mobile internet technology, isn't as advanced now. Otherwise, with just a little information, finding out the truth would be a matter of minutes.

Even now, after combining the information he has gathered and conducting a logical analysis, Xu Ye has a pretty good idea of ​​what the possible attack on Saddam Hussein might be tomorrow.

Judging from the setup, the other side clearly intends to kill Shadama!

"Now, let's see how their training goes!"

After closing his eyes and thinking for a moment, Xu Ye opened them and muttered something under his breath.

Thank goodness Cools wasn't around right now, otherwise he would have had to kneel down and beg him.

This is directly using his elderly father as a "nest" (a metaphor for a dangerous situation), and if anything goes wrong, everything will be over.

"Sigh, this Da Mao is really a pain!" Xu Ye added with a complaint.

Clearly, the Russian side has not yet discovered these things; otherwise, Saddam Hussein should have already been informed.

Since we haven't received any notification, what else is there to say?

Then, Xu Ye thought of the man's experience in the Far East, in which he had also been involved, and felt somewhat relieved.

Xu Ye's thoughts began to wander, and a story from his previous life about the assassination attempt that man had experienced began to surface in his mind.

And what about those that were disclosed, and those that weren't?
Even a fool could guess there would be more!

Being the leader of the Russian Empire truly meant facing physical danger to one's life!

In contrast, there have been almost no assassinations of the US leader in recent years—except in movies.

In addition, there is another peculiar country, South Korea. Their leaders are not in danger of assassination, but rather that none of them have been able to escape imprisonment after stepping down.

What Xu Ye didn't know was that in his previous life's timeline, two years after he traveled back in time, the danger facing the leader of South Korea was not just after the end of his term, but directly before he was still in office. He was first impeached, then arrested and imprisoned, and even his wife was not spared, as she was also arrested and imprisoned.

It must be said that in some countries, even the top leader, who may seem to be enjoying endless glory, is actually hiding dangers, and one wrong move and he could be finished.

"You're thinking too far ahead. What does this have to do with me? As long as Shadak is safe, that's all that matters!"

Xu Ye shook his head slightly, pulling himself out of his thoughts, and said with a hint of self-deprecation.

The safety of Saddam Hussein is what he needs to focus on; everything else is outside his jurisdiction.

In fact, Xu Ye knew that for Saddam Hussein, Moscow was not a safe place; China was.

While China is currently poor, its security is impeccable.

Even ordinary public security issues are visibly improving.

However, this also means that Xu Ye thought it was simply impossible.

Even if Saddam Hussein wanted to, China wouldn't risk offending the United States by agreeing.

Not to mention, Shadak didn't want to anymore.

Only with Da Mao could Shadam receive the most substantial and direct help.

It's just a matter of paying some security costs, but in this world, there's never a high-return, risk-free deal.

Besides, Saddam Hussein did take some measures to deal with this risk.

For example, he paid a price to invite Xu Ye, the person who put him at ease the most, over.

And this is only one aspect; there are many other preparations as well, which I won't go into detail here.

Just like that man, who faced so many assassination attempts but is now unharmed.

That's Saddam Hussein. He also encountered many assassination attempts when he was in Iraq.

Otherwise, Saddam Hussein wouldn't have bothered to create such a realistic-looking stand-in.

Others might not be able to confirm whether this was true or false, but Xu Ye knew it was true.

It's very simple; Shadak told him himself.

However, due to the war, those stand-ins either died or ran away, and now none of them can be found.

Otherwise, Shadak would like to keep them by his side, because those stand-ins did indeed play a role and shielded him from danger.

Xu Ye declined to comment on this.

For ordinary assassinations, a body double might be useful, but for top agents and top assassins, a body double is a joke. There are far too many ways to tell if a person is real or not.

In any case, with Xu Ye, there's no way that the secondary vehicle would be accidentally hit.

With a wave of his hand, Xu Ye put away the equipment, stood up, stretched, and turned to walk towards the bathroom.

During this period, at Shadama's manor, it was arguably the best enjoyment Xu Ye had experienced since his transmigration.

For example, a luxurious bathroom that's bigger than the living room of an average person shouldn't be wasted, right?

In terms of clothing, food, housing, and transportation, although Xu Ye wears training clothes and combat uniforms most of the time, the wardrobe is already full of clothes specially tailored to his body shape.

Whether or not to wear it is Xu Ye's own business.

Whether you buy it or not, that's just the thought that counts for Coolsai.

Having discussed "clothing," let's move on to "living." "Magnificent and resplendent" isn't just an adjective; it's downright luxurious.

To be honest, Xu Ye was slightly surprised when he first saw it.

After all, in China, people value a low-key, dignified, and sophisticated lifestyle, and many things are not readily apparent.

But, well, Middle Easterners, those who know, know!
In comparison, Xu Ye was probably most satisfied with the food. The Middle Eastern cuisine, mainly consisting of roasted meat and pasta, was somewhat similar to Xinjiang Province in China, and the chef was top-notch, which suited Xu Ye's taste perfectly.

To be honest, Xu Ye's current culinary skills are not yet up to that level.

Unfortunately, cooking skills are just a means for Xu Ye to occasionally grind for experience points, not his main focus. He has only reached the expert level so far, which is naturally much better than the average chef.

However, compared to the state banquet chef that Saddam Hussein sent here from Iraq in advance, the difference is still quite large.

Of course, Xu Ye isn't without his advantages. His culinary skills are enhanced by a systematic approach, making him adept at cuisines from around the world—unlike Shadak's chef, who only excels at Arabic food. However, Xu Ye prefers eating to cooking; isn't it better to enjoy ready-made delicious meals?

Fortunately, he has a high metabolism and burns a lot of calories every day; otherwise, he might have gained weight.

After finishing the meal, the final issue was "transportation." Since he had been mostly staying at the manor or at most in the surrounding area, Xu Ye didn't have much need for transportation.

However, if Xu Ye wanted to, he could pick and choose any of the luxury cars in the garage, and as long as he asked, they would be packed up and "sent back to China by air express".

This is no joke; Cooley has probably said it more than once.

This generous treatment, coupled with Xu Ye's status as "below Shadam and above everyone else," means that even Kusai can no longer compare to Xu Ye's standing in Shadam's heart.

Such treatment would be unbearable for most people, but it's Xu Ye who has everything he needs.

A restless night!
"Salman, please make sure my father is safe, I beg you!"

Before Xu Ye set off, Ku Sai gave him a hug and whispered a plea in his ear.

"Don't worry, I will!"

Xu Ye promised, "By the way, after we leave, please be careful while you stay at the manor!"

Although, based on the intelligence we have so far, there is no indication that the other side intends to "steal our base".

After all, their main target is Saddam Hussein!

However, we must be cautious; it's always good to be careful.

"Don't worry, I won't go out!"

Startled, Kusa quickly assured him.

During this period of training, Ku Sai also saw Xu Ye demonstrate sniping at some suitable sniping positions around the manor.

Thinking of the broken watermelons, Cooley made up his mind that after his father's convoy left, the security at the manor would be raised to the highest level, and he would hide in the house and not come out.

As long as he stays in his room, there is basically no danger unless the other side breaches the manor or uses powerful weapons.

It's not that Ku Sai has become timid, but rather that he has witnessed too many unbelievable "assassination" demonstrations by Xu Ye recently.

Perhaps, no one in this world is like Xu Ye.

But who can guarantee that?

For your own safety, it's okay to be a little cowardly. Besides, it's not cowardice; it's called "a wise man avoids dangerous situations."

Goodness, Kusei has followed his father's example and started learning about Chinese culture.

"Yes, contact me anytime if anything comes up!"

Patting him on the back, Xu Ye released his embrace, nodded to the idiot in the distance, turned and walked towards the car next to him. The five-person team he had chosen quickly followed and got into the car behind.

Next, they will act as scouts to conduct preliminary reconnaissance of the route forward.

However, Xu Ye will not be with them; he will be directing from the shadows.

It can't be called giving orders, because Xu Ye wouldn't speak unless absolutely necessary.

After all, Xu Ye was also planning to use this opportunity to give them a practical assessment, and this was such a perfect opportunity!
A few minutes after Xu Ye and his group drove away, Shadamu said a few words to his son before getting into the last of the three bulletproof vehicles and closing the heavy bulletproof door.

Once the curtains inside the car were drawn, it was impossible to tell from the outside which of the three cars contained Shadak.

In Saddam Hussein's view, three cars were not enough. It would be even better if all the escort cars in the convoy were replaced with the same model.

Unfortunately, Shadak only thought about it in his heart; he still had to give that person face.

That man's motorcade was of that standard; I can't go too far.

As the saying goes, when living under someone else's roof, you absolutely cannot ignore the proper etiquette and social niceties.

For example, in just over a month, besides giving Xu Ye the airplane, Saddam Hussein has spent another 200 million US dollars, both openly and secretly. Luckily, he has a lot of money and many people support him, otherwise he would have felt the pinch.

However, the results are quite good.

Putting everything else aside, let's just talk about going to see that man. This is the second time he's done so since arriving in Moscow.

This kind of treatment is impossible to get without spending money!
"Next, maximum alert, understand?"

As the convoy slowly drove out of the manor and the heavy gates closed, Coolsai immediately gave an order to those around him.

"Yes!"

It's not surprising that his subordinates...

There was no way around it; everyone had been on edge because of Xu Ye's assassination demonstration, and now that Xu Ye was gone, the remaining people were also feeling uneasy.

Highest alert level is the highest alert level; safety comes first!

Well, how can someone not teach someone else?
Look, the concept of "safety first" has now taken root in people's hearts.

Nodding, Cooley turned and walked towards the house, having made up his mind.

Before Xu Ye returns, they should stay obediently in the underground command center and absolutely not come out.

Just as Ku Sai was getting into a defensive posture, Xu Ye's car had already disappeared on the road leading to Moscow.

Forget about the potential surveillance personnel; even the five-man combat team following closely behind reacted by the time they realized what was happening, Xu Ye's car was already out of sight.

"Continue your mission, don't worry about me!" Xu Ye's voice rang in their earpieces.

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, the group breathed a sigh of relief, and the squad leader quickly replied.

Little did they know, Xu Ye was actually in a box truck not far from them.

Money makes the world go round!
In capitalist countries, as long as you have money, they can provide you with anything you need.

For example, this container truck looks ordinary from the outside, but its interior is surprisingly spacious.

With the cover of other vehicles and his superb driving skills, Xu Ye was able to drive at high speed and precisely into the container using the rails extending from the truck.

This isn't a movie. If anything goes wrong, the truck will be fine, but Xu Ye's car will be in serious trouble.

"Salman, please respond!" Aziz's somewhat urgent voice came through.

"I'm here, go ahead and speak!" Xu Ye's voice remained as calm as ever.

"We have just received a notification from the Russian State Security Service that, according to their latest intelligence, there may be danger on this highway leading to Moscow."

Xu Ye's calm voice instantly calmed Aziz down. (End of Chapter)
