Mercenary I am the king

Chapter 287 The show is about to begin
These days, Simon feels that everything is going well.

He had a large amount of evidence that Song Heping organized and participated in arms trafficking.

He even followed the clues and uncovered Yusuf as well.

In the end, he came to the conclusion that the two were accomplices in the same conspiracy. They were using each other's resources to steal and sell military property and resources belonging to the new Irigo government.

Ok……

They are not only buying and selling guns and small artillery, but now they have set their sights on the SA-9 air defense system.

But all this is certainly not enough for Simon.

Hit the snake at its most vulnerable part; kill a person by shooting him in the heart.

With the lesson of last failure, he felt that he had to strike a fatal blow this time, sending Song Heping to enjoy a long vacation in Guantanamo Bay prison, and not giving the other party any chance to turn the tables.

What he didn't know was that these days had also been going smoothly for Song Heping.

Now Mohammed and Haziz are local employees of the "Musician" defense.

There were some minor problems with the SA-9 air defense system because it had been left in those remote hiding places for too long without anyone paying attention to it.

Fortunately, most problems are simple and are minor problems in the circuit.

This kind of thing is easy for Muhammad and his two brothers.

They have been working hard these days to repair the three SA-9s and restore them to combat status. They also gave Song Heping an operating lesson to teach him how to use the system.

During this period, Song Heping never went to see Peter again, and Peter never asked him to have breakfast again.

Both are very smart people.

Knowing that it is best not to meet before doing something shady.

Seven days later, Mohammed finally came to report to Song Heping, saying that the three systems were completely fine.

"Are you sure everything is fine?" Song Heping was still a little worried. "Is the ammunition not expired?"

"Absolutely rest assured. The missiles in those tubes are very new. They were prepared for a decisive battle with American aircraft, so they used very new ammunition. They have actually been in the tubes for less than two years. They have disassembled them and inspected them. There are no problems."

Mohammed made a promise.

"Very good." Song Heping suddenly thought of something and quickly asked, "By the way, the SA-9 launch system... I mean, including the armored vehicle with the chassis, how wide, high, and long is it?"

"Its vehicle is a BRDM-2 armored vehicle, which is 2.35 meters wide, 5.75 meters long and about 3.5 meters high," Mohammed said.

"3.5 meters..."

Song Heping frowned.

He is now considering the problem of transportation.

The ship had been contacted. It was a bulk container ship carrying goods to Amsterdam and had to pass through the Red Sea.

The ship is registered in Panama and usually does some gray business, providing some "special services" to some people.

The problem is that to load these three systems into the ship, they cannot be simply hoisted on board. For this kind of weapon system, it must be loaded into special containers or transported using special roll-on/roll-off ships.

The most common containers are basically 2.438 meters wide and have lengths ranging from 12 meters to 3 meters. Using a six-meter container, it is no problem to load an ordinary BRDM-2 wheeled armored vehicle.

But the problem lies in the height. There are three heights of standard containers: 2896mm, 2591mm, and 2438mm.

In other words, the maximum height of a standard container is only about 2.9 meters, which is not enough to accommodate the SA-9 missile launch system which is more than three meters high.

"I'm afraid a normal container wouldn't be able to fit it."

This gave Song Heping a headache.

"How high is the container?" Mohammed suddenly asked.

Song Heping said: "The highest one is only 2.9 meters."

Mohammed said: "This is easy to solve. Remove the launch tube and weapon base on the roof. The original BRDM-2 infantry fighting vehicle is only about 2.3 meters high and can be easily installed. The three removed weapon launch systems can be placed in another container. This solves the problem."

His words suddenly made Song Heping's mind clear up, and the problems that had been troubling him disappeared immediately.

"That's right!"

He patted Mohammed's arm vigorously and said, "Just as you said. Go back now and prepare the necessary tools. I'll pick you up tonight and bring the container truck and crane to the airstrip to load the cargo."

"Okay, boss, I'll go back and prepare now."

Mohammed turned around and was about to leave when Song Heping called him back. "Wait, tell your family tonight that you might be going on a business trip for a while, maybe half a month, maybe a month, but don't worry, the company will provide very generous travel allowances."

"No problem, boss!"

Mohammed left happily.

After working in this company for a few days, he found that most of the local employees in this company were former members of the government army. These people told him that the company’s welfare benefits were quite good and there was no discrimination. Especially for business trips, the subsidies were very generous and there would be commissions for the tasks, depending on the difficulty and danger.

What Mohammed needs most now is money.

No wonder he was so happy.

People are not afraid of being tired, as long as they are paid enough, they are willing to work hard for it.

After Mohammed left, Song Heping called Yusuf and told him that the goods would be loaded tonight. He also said that he had asked Ferrari to deposit 90 US dollars into his account a day in advance and asked him if he had seen the money in his account.

As the call was coming to an end, Song Heping added something, intentionally or not: "Yusuf, you can't keep all this money to yourself. You have to share what's yours. We Chinese have an old saying: 'It's hard to get rich if you eat alone,' you know?"

Yusuf denied it three times on the other end of the phone: "I definitely didn't eat alone. How could I dare to eat alone? Do you think I am the kind of person who eats alone?"

He lowered his voice and began to whisper about who he had distributed the money to, what relationships he had smoothed out, and how difficult the procedures were.

There is indeed a strict set of procedures for goods from loading to port and then to departure, involving many departments.

Hearing him say this, Song Heping smiled with satisfaction and said, "That's right. If you don't know how to share, no one will save you if something happens in the future."

After saying these typing words, he hung up the phone.

Then he sat in the chair in his office and fell into deep thought.

Song Heping was almost certain that something would happen tonight.

If Simon wasn't crazy, he would have ordered the GRS operations team to arrest him if he saw him loading the SA-9 missile system onto a truck and transporting it away tonight.

Moreover, Song Heping was very sure that CIA officials like Simon would definitely not use military special forces to deal with him.

The reason is very simple. He recently won such a large military contract. Anyone with his normal level of skills would think that "Musician" Defense has close ties with the military. So, if he was forced to do so, he would never cooperate with the military to apply for the mobilization of SEALs or Delta Forces, for fear that the news would leak out.

But what Song Heping wanted was for the CIA to act independently and make its own decisions without informing anyone.

As long as Simon acts alone, the play will definitely achieve the best effect.

“Ferrari!”

Song Heping picked up the phone.

"Come to my office."

Soon, Ferrari came over.

When Song Heping saw him come in, he gave him a look to signal him to close the door.

Ferrari did as he was told and sat down opposite Song Heping.

With just one glance, Ferrari knew what was going on.

"Is there going to be a play tonight?"

"Yeah." Song Heping wiped his face vigorously, gritted his teeth and said, "I think the risk tonight is also very high. I am also gambling, so there are some things I have to explain in advance."

"You tell me, I'll do it."

Ferrari is usually quite sharp-tongued, but he never hesitates at critical moments.

Song Heping said, "If I hadn't been shot, I would have definitely sent you a signal if something happened. If the CIA blocked the signal, then all you have to do is drive to the side of Highway 9 before 11:10 tonight. If my motorcade hasn't passed by there before :, you should know I'm in trouble. Once you know I'm in trouble, do you know what to do?"

"I know, everything will be arranged properly, don't worry." Ferrari's face was solemn. He knew that Song Heping was right.

Although it was predicted that the CIA would definitely take action against Song Heping and others tonight, no one knew how they would do it, whether to kill them directly or capture them alive.

Song Heping judged that he was to be captured alive.

Because he thought that Simon was so keen on this matter, it was not just to kill him.

Live a more valuable life.
