Mercenary I am the king

Chapter 639: Exploiting Contradictions
"Why? It seems you also know about this organization." Song Heping said, "Tell me about this organization."

"Are you going to deal with them?" Yusuf saw the clue.

Song Heping nodded: "Yes, I want to destroy them."

Yusuf shook his head: "Impossible, you can't kill them."

Song Heping asked: "Why do you say that?"

Yusuf licked his lips, clearly nervous, and lowered his voice twice. "This organization has done some very extreme things in the northwest before. The government forces had originally planned to encircle and suppress them. They had already made plans, but they were called off before they even began."

The information provided by Yusuf completely matched the information provided by Afanasiy.

There is a cross-validation method in intelligence analysis.

Afanti's information may not be 100% accurate.

The same is true of the situation provided by Yusuf.

But if you cross-check them, most of the matching parts are real.

"Who stopped it?" Song Heping asked.

Yusuf said, "Huh, who do you listen to in this government of ours?"

"Americans?" Song Heping gave a tentative answer.

"Yes!" Yusuf said. "We're one family, so I'm not shy about it. Later, there was some discussion within our circle. My brothers in the intelligence department said it was the CIA that directly intervened to prevent a conflict between government forces and I5I5."

At this point, Song Heping was completely convinced that the I5I5 organization and its leader were really Americans.

No wonder he is so obedient.

Let them attack their own convoy.

Let them attack their own oil fields.

Originally, near the oil field area in Erbil, he, the tribal forces, the Madih army, and even the Kurds had reached a tacit understanding that they would not attack each other.

No matter how much we planned, we didn't expect a new extremist organization to emerge.

"Is Samir related to I5I5?" Song Heping asked.

Yusuf said, "Yes, of course."

Song Heping frowned slightly: "Is there a connection?"

In his opinion, since they all lived in the Northwest region, they should know each other.

"They're hostile," Yusuf said. "But my cousin is no match for the I5I5. Their armed group only has about 5 people. The I5I has grown rapidly over the past year, merging with several local armed groups and absorbing the Salafi Brigades. It now has over members."

"Um……"

Song Heping nodded slightly.

He came to Yusuf and asked for Samir's contact information because of this matter.

He had previously commanded division-level operations in Mexico.

But it is more sensitive here in Irigo.

Especially now that I am the one that no one dares to help.

The US troops stationed in Iraq used to be cooperative, but now they won't help themselves.

As for those PMC companies, when they have contracts and can get a big piece of the cake, they will invite me to the club for a drink and politely say that I am one of them.

Although I haven't asked Blackwater or AAFES for help, it is foreseeable that they will basically ignore me.

The world is real.

The same is true in the small circle of military defense.

Now he has two battalions of troops locally, and even if he transfers the other platoon that has just been trained from Venezuela here, he will probably only have the strength of a special operations company.

Including the core members of the company, there are less than a thousand people in total.

If we use these 5 people to fight a battle with I5I's current -plus people, I'm afraid the pressure will be very great.

The most fatal thing is that most of the soldiers on the I5I5 organization's side are from Irigora, Siliya or some extremist people from other African countries. They have been here for a long time and are very familiar with the terrain here. They have the advantage of geographical location. If there is no local armed organization familiar with the environment to assist them in combat, they will probably suffer heavy casualties.

Song Heping would not fight such a bloody battle unless he had no other choice. Therefore, he thought of his former subordinate Samir, the young man from Irige who had very pure ideals.

"Brother, are you sure you really want to fight I5I5?" Yusuf stared at Song Heping, trying to find the answer from his face: "If you really want to do this, I might be able to provide a little insignificant help."

"What help?"

"Help you cut off their reinforcement route, at least part of it."

"Tell me."

Song Heping became interested.

He didn't expect that he would have an unexpected surprise when he came here today.

"It's like this. Currently, I5I5 is active along the border. Many of them are actually from Siliya. The Siliya government currently dislikes these people and will annihilate them whenever they are discovered. However, they are locals and don't have any tattoos on their faces, so it's difficult to identify them. However, if I5I5 in Ilia are attacked, they will cross the border, take up arms, and join the fight against their attackers."

Yusuf gave a sly smile.

"Don't underestimate these people. There are thousands of them. Once they join forces with the I5I5 elements in our country, their strength will instantly reach over three thousand. For you, having one thousand fewer people will reduce the pressure a lot!"

Song Heping didn't expect such a good thing to happen.

He was still having a headache before, and he was most afraid of reinforcements coming from the territory of Siliya.

Now, someone actually gave me a pillow when I felt sleepy.

"Are you sure you can do it? How can you do it?" Song Heping couldn't help but wonder if Yusuf was bragging for the sake of face.

"It's easy. We have a lot of troops at the border. As long as we establish a dense patrol line along the border, they will naturally be unable to cross. Crossing the border is illegal, and we have the right to stop them."

"Didn't you say the CIA was supporting them? Do you dare to go against the CIA?"

Song Heping was quite curious about Yusuf's starting point.

This guy won't do anything without profit.

Such initiative is rare.

"We have our own interests to consider. You know, our current government owes its name to the Americans, but we also have our own interests. For example, regarding the I5I5 organization, we all know the Americans' intention in cultivating this beast. To put it bluntly, it's to curb the 'Shia Arc' that Persia started two years ago. I5I5 is just a tool."

“But for us, this is not a good thing.”

Yusuf sneered, "People like Baghdadi are genuine terrorists, belonging to an extremist sect. If they allow them to grow stronger, you can imagine our predicament. If something really happens to the Americans, they can just walk away, but we'll be left to suffer. So, we'll use the excuse of an unidentified exchange of fire in the northwest to block the border to control the situation. That way, we can legitimately keep those reinforcements out."

Song Heping thought for a moment and felt that this was feasible.

In fact, each faction in Yiligo has its own little tricks.

The right way is to use the conflicts between them to your own advantage.

"Okay, you'll be in charge of this. I'll let you know the time and location. You just need to help me smooth things over with your military and government and get them to do what I'm told. I just really doubt your ability to execute. Don't give up halfway and throw me into the fire!"

"How could that be possible?" Yusuf said, "Brother, you know me. I will never betray you if this is something that benefits me."

Song Heping reached out and patted Yusuf on the shoulder: "That's good, we are good brothers after all, right?"

As he spoke, his eyes became sharper.

Yusuf shuddered inwardly.

Song Heping is a person who cannot be offended.

I have seen what he is capable of.

To betray him would be to commit suicide.

"Don't worry, brother. You've helped me make so much money. I'll do my best to help you, both publicly and privately."

"Okay, then give me Samir's phone number."

“No phone.”

Yusuf explained: "He doesn't dare use a landline because the US military intelligence is also tracking him, but I know how to find him."
