Who would still be a social slave when they are so rich?

The IPS vehicle team was huge, and the convoy consisting of dozens of armored vehicles was like a winding steel dragon. Countless passers-by saw this scene and hid on both sides of the road, looking around.

There was confusion in everyone's eyes, wondering where such an elite team came from.

After the convoy left, these people dared to gather in groups of three or five to discuss the matter.

"Oh my god, have you ever seen dozens of armored vehicles and a force of this size? Could this be the elite force of our government army?"

"How is that possible? The government army is just a bunch of idiots, how can they have such an elite team? Did you notice those people standing guard on the armored vehicles? They all had hostility in their eyes, typical of people who have experienced the battlefield."

"That's right. You don't believe what kind of people we are. You just bully us blacks and those businessmen. If you meet the M23 armed group in the northeast, you will probably be scared to death."

"If they are not government troops, then where are these people from? Are they from the M23 armed group? It's impossible. Our Lula Ababa Province is so far away from the northeast, how could they come to us!"

For a moment, everyone had their own opinions, and no one knew the origins of this armored unit!
The government forces of Lula Ababa Province were also shocked. When the armored unit entered the suburbs, they had already received a call from below, informing them that an elite force was marching towards the city in a swagger.

As the head of the government army, Pierre Sack immediately convened a high-level meeting as soon as he learned the information, and also ordered his troops to assemble urgently to prevent any unrest.

There are only two thousand government troops in the entire Lula Ababa city area, most of whom are just filling in the numbers. The weapons in their hands are all outdated Ak47s. As for armored vehicles, there are only five of them.

After all, the entire Democratic Republic of the Congo has a total of 214 tanks, and they are old-style tanks such as T72, 59 and 62. It is very good that they can be driven.

As for armored vehicles, there are only a little more than tanks, at only 233 vehicles. They are also old versions from decades ago and have long been obsolete. However, they are still the trump card of the Democratic Republic of the Congo!

It is conceivable how outrageous the military strength of the Democratic Republic of the Congo is.

But now someone told them that dozens of advanced armored vehicles were heading towards the city, which was equivalent to a quarter of their entire country's armored vehicle fleet. How could they not panic?

Seeing his men all keeping their heads down and not saying a word, Pierre was so angry that he slapped the table hard, making a "bang" sound that echoed throughout the conference room.

"Damn it, you all should speak up. You are always so arrogant, but why do you become silent at the critical moment?"

After hearing this, the middle and senior management who had been lowering their heads lowered even more, just like a group of ostriches.

Our own people know our own business. How can these troops who don't even train twice a year have any combat effectiveness? If they are really pulled out to fight the enemy, who knows if they will have a few more holes on their bodies.

The most obvious solution now is to keep their heads down and act like an ostrich. If the sky falls, they have a tall man like Pierre to hold it up. What do they have to be afraid of?

Just then, the door of the conference room was suddenly knocked, breaking the awkward situation.

"Come in!" Pierre called out in a deep voice.

The next second, the door of the conference room was opened, and Peel's personal guard hurried in, "Leader, emergency, that mysterious armored vehicle unit has entered the Huakuang Group!"

"What did you say? Entered the Huakuang Group?" Not only Peel, but even those middle and senior managers who had been pretending to be ostriches, now opened their eyes wide and looked at the guard who was speaking with an incredible look on their faces.

But they knew that the higher-ups were planning to target Chinese industries and were preparing to use some means to snatch back those mineral and energy projects without spending a penny.

Before they could take action, something unexpected happened to those Chinese companies.

However, after hearing the news, Pierre and others were briefly shocked, and then they all raised their heads and put on a relaxed smile.

Because they know that China will not get involved in the politics of other countries, nor will it easily take action against them. Even if their equipment is advanced, these people are not afraid at all.

If a conflict really occurs, they don't have to worry about it, there will naturally be someone to speak for them internationally.

"Okay! Since those armored vehicles belong to China, all of you should come with me to the Huakuang Group and ask them how they transported those equipment in. If they can't explain it, don't blame us for not remembering our friendship and confiscating those armored vehicles!"

The more Pierre spoke, the more excited his expression became, as if he had already seen those dozens of advanced armored vehicles belonging to him.

Even the middle and senior management present here are no exception, each of them is ready to go.

"Let's go, take two hundred... no, take five hundred people, bring all the equipment and follow me to the Huakuang Group to hold them accountable. If we can do it well, it will no longer be a dream for us to have brothers who can eat and drink well every day!" Pierre waved his hand and took the lead to walk out of the meeting room.

He was also thinking about whether he should take advantage of this opportunity to take over the Huakuang Group directly. Wouldn't he become famous in the upper class overnight? Promotion and wealth would no longer be a dream!

Soon the entire government army camp became noisy. Five dilapidated armored vehicles slowly drove out of the camp, followed by a large group of people trotting behind the armored vehicles.

The camp where the government forces were located was not very far from the location of the China Mining Group, only about three or four kilometers away, but it took Pierre and his team almost an hour to get there.

The people running behind the armored vehicle were already out of breath. When they arrived at the gate of the China Mining Group, before Pierre, the top leader, could give any words, they all collapsed on the curb, gasping for breath.

Pierre and other middle and senior executives who got out of the car were not surprised at all when they saw this scene. They just said, "Take a break for ten minutes," and then turned their gaze towards the direction of the gate of the Huakuang Group.

At the gate of the Huakuang Group, there were four armored vehicles parked on both sides, and twenty or thirty people with weapons in their hands were watching them. There was no tension on their faces, and they seemed to be unperturbed by the arrival of Pierre and others.

As if it had been expected.

"Commander, something seems amiss. Why are all these people black? They don't look like they are from China." A senior official walked up to Pierre and whispered.

Hearing this, a trace of displeasure flashed in Pierre's eyes, and he couldn't help but curse in his heart: "It's not like I don't have eyes, do I need you to tell me?"

Although he was unhappy, Pierre's expression became serious. He was also wondering why this was different from what he had expected.

Aren't they supposed to be from the Chinese side? Why are they yellow-skinned? How did they become black natives?

Moreover, why are the weapons in those people's hands so advanced? And the looks in their eyes make everyone feel very cautious.

Who are these people?
For a moment, Peel and a group of middle and high-level government soldiers just stood there in a daze, not knowing whether to advance or retreat!
This lasted for about a minute or two. Pierre made up his mind and looked at the middle and senior executives behind him. He scanned the group and stopped at the two people closest to him.

One of them was the senior leader of the government army who had come up to him and whispered.

"You two, take a few people and ask who they are. Why didn't they report to the government army before entering the city? Find out everything!"

The two people were stunned when they heard this. They never expected that Pierre would make such arrangements.

The two opened their mouths and were about to say something, but seeing the unhappy look on Pierre's face, they could only swallow back their words.

The two of them called over dozens of small fry and walked towards the gate of the Hua Mining Group with trembling steps.

When they were less than five meters away from the gate, the senior government officer stopped walking. For no other reason, he saw that the unknown armed personnel at the gate had put their fingers on the triggers, and even the machine guns of the armored vehicles turned towards them silently.

Looking at the machine gun that was thicker than his two fingers, if there weren't so many people watching behind him, he would have had the urge to turn around and run away.

He pulled himself together and asked loudly, "I am a senior official of the Lula Ababa Provincial Government Army. Who are you? Why did you suddenly enter the city and come to the headquarters of the Huakuang Group?"

A two-meter-tall strong man who looked like the captain walked out from the group of armed men. The muscles on his arms were thicker than those on most people's thighs. There was a hint of murderous intent on his face, and the government soldiers trembled as he looked at them.

"Are you a high-ranking official in the government army of Lula Ababa Province?" The sturdy man looked around and saw the logo on his clothes. He nodded in confirmation and said, "We are from IPS Security Company and we are taking over the Huakuang Group. If there is anything, please ask the highest person in charge of your government army to come!"

After saying that, he ignored the man who covered the floor and turned around and walked back.

Although the sturdy man's voice was not very loud, many people still heard what he said. When they heard that these unknown armed men were from the IPS, there was a sudden commotion in the team.

Many people silently took a few steps back. A person's reputation is like the shadow of a tree. In Africa, the name of IPS is even more famous than that of the Bald Eagle, China, and the Russian Bear to some extent.

This is a reputation that was made in Africa with real guns and real ammunition. It is said that all the branches here combined have hundreds of thousands of people, which is even more than the troops of some countries.

The most important thing is that the weapons and equipment of IPS are very advanced and can surpass those of countries like the Democratic Republic of the Congo by several streets. How can these useless people not be afraid?

Even the senior executive standing at the front was shocked by the news.

Why is he standing there motionless?
Was it because he wanted to stand? No! He was so frightened by the strong man that he couldn't move, otherwise he would have slipped to the back.

"Let's go back and report to the commander. There's nothing left for us to do!" Another person in charge pulled his sleeve and said in a low voice.

He would glance at the IPS people from time to time, fearing that he would do something bad and attract their attention.

The senior executive came to his senses and immediately turned around and walked towards Pierre, but his steps were even slower than before.

Looking at the dozens of people who seemed to be escaping, Pierre's brows immediately frowned, and he shouted at the senior official: "Look at you, do you have the momentum of the government army at all? People who don't know would think you are the armed organization of M23!"

Regarding this, both the two who just ran back and the group of people behind Pierre couldn't help but roll their eyes. Don't their own people know what's going on?
Compared with the armed organizations of M23, these small fry are even somewhat inferior. At most, they can bully civilians and businesses with the weapons in their hands. If a real war breaks out, I'm afraid they will run away faster than anyone else.

Seeing that everyone had their brows lowered, Pierre did not dwell on this issue too much. After all, how could he not know what kind of people they were?
Then he changed the subject and asked, "You just asked those people what was going on? Did they tell you anything?"

As soon as these words came out, the middle and senior management standing behind Pierre immediately became alert and looked at the two people who had gone there before.

The senior executive explained with a bitter face: "Commander, those people are from the branch of IPS Security Company in the Democratic Republic of Congo. I heard that they are here to take over the Huakuang Group. If you have any specific questions, they asked you to go in and find their person in charge!"

When everyone heard this, they all took a deep breath. They never thought that these people would be from IPS.

And take over the Huakuang Group? Could it be that Huaxia has entrusted all the industrial security in the Democratic Republic of the Congo to IPS?
As for handing over all Chinese-owned properties in the Democratic Republic of the Congo to IPS, Pierre had never even thought about it. After all, billions of dollars of investment would not be easily transferred to other people. No one would do such a thing.

What's more, they are only taking preliminary and tentative actions against Chinese-funded enterprises, and they haven't taken full action yet.

But what was the result... The Huakuang Group started to take action and brought in IPS Security Company, which made him unable to understand.

Will this also be the case for Chinese-owned enterprises in other cities?

At this moment, Pierre had a bad feeling in his heart, as if the top leaders of the Democratic Republic of the Congo had made a wrong decision this time.

"Commander, why don't we go back to the camp! It's better for us not to mess with the IPS people. We will report this matter later and let the people above us worry about it!" The senior executive who had "stepped forward" earlier advised earnestly.

"Yes, Commander! One or two thousand dollars a month is not worth the effort. Brothers are working so hard but there is no bonus for them. Why bother?"

With the first bird to speak out, the middle and senior management also spoke up, one after another, and the main focus was on persuading people to quit.

I’m afraid that our commander will get too excited and rush in with his brothers!

If it really comes to this, should we kidnap the commander and hand him over to the IPS, or should we secretly attack him from behind?

For a moment, strange looks flashed in the eyes of many people, and they all looked at Pierre more or less, waiting for him to make the final decision.

At this moment, Pierre didn't notice the changes in the expressions of the people around him at all. He was still immersed in thinking, wondering whether he should go in and find out what the situation was, so that he could prepare for what happened next and not be put in a passive position.

Soon, Pierre made up his mind, which was to go in and find out what the situation was.

He must figure out whether the Huakuang Group will be handed over to IPS for security protection, or whether the Huakuang Group's industries will be transferred to IPS.

After figuring it out, he turned around and looked at several middle and senior management leaders and said, "I'll go in and find out the situation later. You all go back with your teams, and only one small team will be left behind!"

When everyone heard the first half of the sentence, their hearts were lifted, thinking that Pierre was going to cause trouble for IPS. However, when they heard the second half of the sentence, their hearts instantly settled down.

"Yes, Commander! We will return with the team immediately!"

After saying that, the middle and senior management leaders called their respective teams back to the camp. In a short while, the originally lively scene was reduced to only forty or fifty people.

Pierre picked two guards, asked the rest to wait outside, and led his men towards the China Mining Group.

He also knew that given the strength of the government forces, it would be useless no matter how many people they brought.

It would be better to be more generous and bring two people in. This way, he can also show his courage and responsibility as a member of the government army of Lula Ababa Province!

Just like that... Pierre and his two companions walked into the gate of the Huakuang Group amid the admiring gazes of dozens of people, and disappeared from sight in the blink of an eye.

"Do you think Commander Pierre is okay going in?"

The remaining government troops discussed in a low voice.

"Who knows? Even if something unexpected happens, it has nothing to do with us! As long as we don't fight, there are tall people to hold up the sky if it collapses!"

These words were instantly recognized by everyone. They looked at each other and silently retreated about ten meters.

Only the armored vehicle that Pierre was riding in remained where it was, looking particularly lonely! (End of this chapter)
