My military function points

Chapter 342 An Unexpected Request.

"What did you call Black Panther?"

Chen Rong wondered if he had misheard and stared at Mike incredulously.

"Godfather!" Mike said earnestly, "Black Panther saved my life; he's like a second father to me!"

The little golden eagle lowered its head, stretched out its wings to cover its beak, and seemed to be laughing.

Xiao Heizi sat upright on the stool, staring intently at the chessboard, seemingly hesitant about whether to flip over the piece that Mike had just pointed to.

"Do you know that in China, 'dog son' is an insult?"

"So what? I willingly recognized him as my godfather, and I'll take care of Black Panther in his old age and see him off when he dies!"

"Well done!" Chen Rong was somewhat impressed with Mike. "How are you feeling?"

Mike: "Great!"

"Alright, get some rest tonight, and come with me to the UK tomorrow. For the next while, your whole squad will be with me."

"Really! I can finally work alongside the leader!" Mike jumped up immediately, his excitement overflowing.

The little black dog and the little golden eagle stopped playing chess and both looked at their owner.

"Wow?"

"Wang?"

Chen Rong laughed: "You two come too. I'm blind now, I can't do without you two!"

Wow!
The little golden eagle immediately stretched out its claws and overturned the chessboard, then jumped off the chair and prepared to go to the balcony to rest, which made the little black dog shout angrily.

. . .

. . .

At the border between Virginia and Washington, D.C., there is an I-shaped cluster of buildings; this is the headquarters of the CIA.

The entire complex covers approximately 200 acres. Moreover, the surrounding town is under the jurisdiction of the CIA, and all entrances and exits are guarded by military personnel 24 hours a day.

According to data from the dark web, since the CIA headquarters was established here, no outsider has ever successfully entered this complex in the decades since.

This has made the CIA headquarters even more mysterious and unpredictable.

Chen Rong and his group arrived at a nearby farm the following night. Li Daolai and members of Mike's team had already arrived earlier.

The little golden eagle immediately took to the sky to begin its vigilance, while Chen Rong, Qi Tian, ​​and Mike went inside to join Mike's team.

"Guardian dogs, have you gathered any useful intelligence beforehand?" Qi Tian asked first.

"I have a pretty good understanding of the surrounding environment of the building complex and have taken a lot of photos."

Li Daolai shook his head, "But we still can't find an opportunity to get close to their office building."

Skill - Beast Transformation, activated.

Chen Rong shared Xiao Heizi's view and discovered that all the members of Mike's team were sitting around a table, and one of the walls was covered with photos.

"There are a total of 7 entrances and exits here, and each checkpoint is guarded by soldiers carrying live ammunition..."

As Chen Rong listened to Li Daolai's introduction, he gradually frowned.

He made extensive preparations for this operation, and the Hunter and President Kookmin also provided a great deal of intelligence. However, the security forces at CIA headquarters remain a mystery to this day.

"We only have so many people, a direct assault is definitely out of the question," Li Daolai concluded after finishing his explanation.

"You're talking nonsense. I should have brought Green Snake along!"

Qi Tian retorted without any politeness, "Guardian Dog, you're just a reckless brute. We asked you to scout ahead, and you tell us we can't force our way in?"

Li Daolai wasn't angry. He scratched his head and said, "I'm just waiting for the King of Hell to come and make a decision."

After he finished speaking, everyone in the room looked at Chen Rong.

Even though they knew the other person was blind, everyone still subconsciously regarded Chen Rong as the commander.

"Uncle Li, have you made contact with Edward's men yet?" Chen Rong asked after thinking for a moment.

Li Daolai shook his head: "Not yet. Didn't you say we'd talk about everything after you arrived?"

"Now we can contact them."

Chen Rong began assigning tasks, "I brought Doll and Black Panther with me this time. They'll handle the reconnaissance tasks. Allen, you'll be in charge of the weapons and equipment."

Allen immediately stood up: "Don't worry, everyone will be here by tomorrow!"

"Uncle Qi, could you contact Auntie later and ask her if she has any relevant information from interrogating Paul?"

"it is good!"

"I remember there's a river around here, isn't there?"

"That's right, it flows right through the CIA headquarters."

"Mike, take the others and go scout along both sides of the river again later."

“YESSIR!” Mike was excited; this was his first mission under the command of the King of Hell.

Li Daolai understood Chen Rong's meaning: "You plan to travel by waterway?"

Chen Rong nodded: "I know they must have taken precautions, but at present, entering by water is at least more feasible than entering by land."

After the arrangements were made, everyone started to move. Chen Rong, along with Xiao Heizi, followed Qi Tian into a pickup truck and headed straight for the nearest checkpoint to the CIA headquarters.

. . .

. . .

It was nearly midnight in the United Kingdom, and from a distance, most of the lights in the buildings in the complex were already off.

Qi Tian parked the car in a blind spot of the surveillance cameras and began to contact Yang Jinhua.

"Black Panther, go."

The next moment, a black shadow jumped off the car and disappeared in a flash.

At the same time, the little golden eagle flew high above the CIA headquarters.

The distance to the checkpoint was about one kilometer. It wasn't that Chen Rong didn't want to go any further, but if he continued to get closer, he would definitely be discovered by the soldiers responsible for protecting the CIA.

Sitting in the car, Chen Rong's gaze shifted back and forth between the little golden eagle and the little black dog, and he quickly figured out the general layout of the place.

This complex appears to be fully functional, with the main building being the U-shaped office building, surrounded by a group of low-rise buildings that perform various functions.

At this time, apart from the staff on duty, there were no other people to be seen in the entire area.

Rachel had previously provided information that the CIA headquarters archives were located underground, so Chen Rong mentally controlled Xiao Heizi to skim along the flowerbeds and head straight for the lobby on the first floor of the office building.

As expected, there were still guards near the gate of the hall, which meant that Xiao Heizi could only walk around outside, take a quick look at the layout of the hall, and then leave.

The little golden eagle had already flown to the rooftop of the main building and was about to land, but Chen Rong saw the infrared devices on the rooftop through his vision and had no choice but to let the little golden eagle retreat.

The entire investigation took about ten minutes, and judging from the current situation, it was indeed difficult to make a move.

On the surface, the CIA headquarters doesn't seem to have many security personnel, so it shouldn't be difficult to just storm in. But this is on enemy territory, so getting in is easy, but getting out is difficult.

Chen Rong had no intention of making pointless sacrifices with Mike's team. He had only one purpose in coming here: to retrieve the file that had framed his father years ago.

If it could be done without firing a single shot, that would naturally be the best outcome.

Just then, Qi Tian ended his call and looked at Chen Rong: "How did it go?" "I've got most of the information. Let's go back and discuss it further." Chen Rong then asked, "What did your aunt say?"

Xiao Heizi silently darted up. Qi Tian started the car and said while turning the steering wheel, "Paul is a military personnel and doesn't know much about what happened back then, but he did mention a name."

"Who?"

“Jard, former CIA Operations Director, is now retired,” Qi Tian replied.

The CIA has four departments: the Intelligence Division, the Administration Division, the Operations Division, and the Technology Division. The head of the Operations Division is a powerful position.

The two returned to the farm where they had temporarily established their base. Li Daolai was already waiting in the yard. As soon as Chen Rong got out of the car, he stepped forward and whispered, "Edward's men have arrived."

Upon hearing this, Chen Rong immediately activated IFF (Identification Friend or Foe) and BeiDou navigation, only then discovering two additional yellow and green dots on the radar inside the room.

Did they say anything?

"No, one of the women said she wanted to talk to you in person."

Chen Rong nodded and led Xiao Heizi through the door.

"Long time no see, King Yama!" A somewhat familiar female voice rang out.

"Rachel? What are you doing here?"

Through Xiao Heizi's vision, Chen Rong immediately recognized the woman who had just gotten up as Rachel from the CIA.

A bald man, around forty years old, got up with Rachel.

"I just happened to be going back to headquarters with the deputy director to report on my work."

Rachel smiled and pointed to the person next to her, "This is Wilson, the deputy director of the operations department."

"Hello, King Yama, I've heard so much about you!" Wilson took the initiative to step forward and shake hands with Chen Rong.

"Hello, please have a seat!"

Upon hearing Wilson's position, Chen Rong's heart stirred, and he subtly gestured for the two to sit down.

Edward had previously told Chen Rong that he would contact an old friend with some influence in the CIA to help him, but it would definitely require a promise of political asylum from either China or Russia.

Even though Chen Rong had prepared himself mentally, he never expected that the "friend with some influence" Edward mentioned would actually be the deputy director of the CIA's Operations Division!
People in this position might have direct access to the archives!

With that in mind, Chen Rong asked directly, "Mr. Wilson, do you have permission to enter the archives?"

Wilson shook his head, giving Chen Rong a disappointing answer: "Apart from the director, deputy director, and four section chiefs, anyone entering the archives needs to apply for permission, after all, there are too many secrets inside."

Analysis result: The truth.

Qi Tian and Li Daolai, standing behind Chen Rong, also looked dejected. Like Chen Rong, they had hoped that Wilson would simply bring out the file after learning his identity.

Wilson observed the expressions on Chen Rong's and the other two's faces, leaned back in his chair, and said with a smile, "It seems that Your Majesty the King of Hell has come here for the archives?"

Chen Rong remained noncommittal and continued to ask, "Do you know Jia De?"

“Of course, the former head of operations was also my boss’s mentor,” Wilson said immediately. “To put it bluntly, if it weren’t for Judd, Bingham might not have become the head!”

Chen Rong knew that Wilson's superior was Bingham, the current head of operations, and a thought struck him: "Could you tell Judd your current address?"

Wilson looked at Chen Rong and laughed: "Is the King of Hell planning to make a move against that old bastard Judd?"

Chen Rong didn't understand what the other party meant: "I came here only to retrieve one thing, and it would be best if I could do it without having to fight."

"It has nothing to do with me. You'd be better off massacring the CIA headquarters!" Wilson shrugged.

Upon hearing this, Li Daolai and Qi Tian exchanged a knowing smile, finding the situation interesting.

Chen Rong was also a little puzzled, and looked at Rachel: "Mr. Wilson seems to be quite dissatisfied with the CIA?"

Rachel glanced at Wilson, and seeing that he didn't seem to mind, she said, "Wilson was scapegoated in a previous operation, and now Bingham is looking for an excuse to get rid of him."

"Tsk tsk tsk, your industry is really messy," Li Daolai couldn't help but mutter.

“Your Majesty, I can not only provide you with Judd’s address, but also all the architectural plans for the CIA headquarters. I can even bring one or two people in, as long as they are white,” Wilson continued.

Chen Rong: "Where's the archives?"

“Then I can’t help you. Only a few people have the authority to enter.” Wilson thought for a moment. “But since you know about Judd, you can use this old guy to lure Bingham out.”

“In addition, I need you to provide a safe evacuation route afterward,” Chen Rong said in a deep voice.

This is actually the most important part of this operation.

After all, this is the CIA headquarters in the United States. Even if they successfully retrieve the files, it will be very difficult for them to leave safely.

Wilson and Rachel exchanged a glance and nodded: "No problem!"

Chen Rong breathed a sigh of relief: "Alright, now you can tell me your conditions."

. . .

. . .

After Wilson and Rachel left with satisfied smiles, Chen Rong and the other two were at a loss for words, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

As a CIA agent, the other party's secret assistance to Chen Rong in hacking into the archives was tantamount to treason. Given the enormous price to pay, Chen Rong had expected the other party to impose very harsh conditions, and he was even prepared to bargain.

Surprisingly, Wilson's demands were unbelievably simple: $2000 million in cash and permanent residency in China or Russia.

Wilson's expression at the time seemed as if he was afraid Chen Rong would refuse, and he kept emphasizing that he had never done anything hostile to China, including the location of the honey badger's remains, which he provided through Rachel.

This condition was far too easy for Chen Rong. Putting aside the residency issue, Li Daolai could just cash out the 2000 million yuan in cash on the spot.

Rachel's request was even simpler: she asked Bull to promise to take her on a honeymoon after he finished dealing with the situation in Syria.

Upon hearing this request, Li Daolai and Qi Tian immediately agreed on behalf of the bull without hesitation.

A short while later, Mike's team returned.

"Li, you two are laughing so happily, is there some good news?" Mike asked as soon as he entered the room.

Li Daolai chuckled: "It's a happy occasion, we've found Allen a stepmother."

Allen: "???"

"What's going on?" Allen was completely bewildered. "Don't I have enough stepmothers already?"

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore," Chen Rong interrupted. "Have you found anything out of your investigation?"

"Have!"

Mike walked to the table, looked at the little black boy lying on it, and said softly, "Godfather, could you please move aside?"

Little Blackie slowly got up and made room for him. Mike immediately spread out a map and gestured for everyone to come over.

"After passing the Lincoln Memorial, the Potomac River turns southeast, just past the CIA headquarters."

Mike went straight to the point, pointing to a particular location.
"We originally thought the CIA would deploy defenses along the riverbanks, but that wasn't the case."

Due to the rapid flow of the river and the current flood season, a nearby bridge was recently washed away, and the government's construction team is currently carrying out emergency repairs at the site.

We conducted extensive reconnaissance along the coast and found no CIA or military personnel present, except for construction workers!

A thought instantly flashed through Chen Rong's mind: "Are there many fish in the Potomac River?"

"Not only are there many, but they've even reached the point of being rampant."

Mike replied, "According to the construction workers, the river is mostly inhabited by crocodiles, black bass, and frogs!"
