Era: Starting from divorce from female college student

August 1988, Moscow, Kremlin.

Gorbachev, the current owner of the palace, was not particularly happy.

Because all the news he's seen lately has been bad news.

For him, this was pure torture.

Why is it always like this?
"You just can't seem to get past Yunlan City, this tough nut to crack. I really don't understand. Aren't you supposed to be an invincible force? Why have you been failing for years now?"

Gorbachev looked at the man in front of him with great disappointment.

This man, named Rogetov, was the head of the KGB.

The KGB had suffered a series of mishaps, and to this day, it still hadn't solved the problem Gorbachev wanted to address.

Yunlan City has become a forbidden zone for agents around the world; getting there is practically impossible.

Whether it's MI6 of Great Britain.

Or perhaps it's Sam's intelligence agency.

Or perhaps we should refer to the French Foreign Security Bureau.

They're all weaklings. They couldn't break through the defenses of Yunlan City and were instead captured alive by them. It's truly shameful.

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency, I know this was indeed our fault, but the technological capabilities of Yunlan City are simply too strong."

Rogetov had no choice. He didn't want to admit his mistake, but that was the reality, and he had no choice but to back down.

Gorbachev didn't care about anything else; all he wanted to do was confirm whether Yunlan City had any fighter jets that could travel faster than Mach 5.

If such a fighter jet exists, what Mach number would it be, and could it be mass-produced?
Rumors aside, although the Mach 5 fighter jet has been sold to the Saudi Empire, the restrictions imposed on it are enormous.

So while Gorbachev also wanted the Mach 5 fighter jets from the Saudi Empire, he was more interested in figuring out whether Yunlan City itself possessed weapons and equipment that surpassed Mach 5.

this point is very important.

Otherwise, they would have just purchased Mach 5 fighter jets, only to be threatened by Yunlan City's Mach 10 fighter jets the next moment.

what is it now?
And most importantly, Yunlan City doesn't have a large population to begin with, and most of them are immigrants.

So they probably don't have many pilots, right?
If there are mass casualties, the pilots of Yunlan City will certainly be in serious trouble.

Even if that's not the case, in another twenty or thirty years, the older generation of pilots will retire, and a new generation of pilots will not have grown up yet.

Then Yunlan City will become their prey.

Whether it will actually be on our plate or not is still uncertain.

But the only thing that can be confirmed at this moment is that Yunlan City's various cutting-edge technologies are indeed incredibly impressive.

Before Rogoutov could find a breakthrough, he received a message from an agent working for Sam.

Sam is actually planning to dig a tunnel from Ethiopia to Yunlan City, and use this tunnel to transport weapons and equipment to the agents who have already infiltrated Yunlan City.

After all, it's simply impossible to bring weapons into Yunlan City.

Without weapons, there is no possibility of obtaining weapons and equipment within the territory of Yunlan City.

Any skilled agent could be targeted upon entering the country.

Therefore, the agents who can be dispatched to Yunlan City nowadays are all people with yellow skin and black hair.

And these kinds of people are also very likely to become traitors.

why?
The quality of life in Yunlan City is very high, and the wages are also very good.

Under such circumstances, the salaries of secret agents were not very high to begin with, so it was not surprising that they became traitors.

After all, as long as you can join the afforestation project, you can earn over 100,000 Yunlan Treasure Notes in a year.

Two or three years later, you can earn hundreds of thousands in salary.

However, if you become a secret agent, the settlement allowance is only $200,000, and the salary is only $15,000.

Even so, this is still a very high salary.

But to earn such a salary, one has to risk their life.

They are originally of Asian descent, so why don't they just stay in Yunlan City and become permanent residents?

Therefore, many people became traitors.

This is also one of the reasons why many intelligence agencies, such as the US, France, and Moscow, have suffered repeated setbacks.

As for their families who were originally in Sam or elsewhere after they became traitors.

Yunlan City will also help with the rescue. As long as this person can provide very accurate information, the Black Cross forces will naturally not mind helping them.

Therefore, under such circumstances, it is relatively easy for Yunlan City to eliminate the special agents within its borders.

"Good, good, good. Now that we have a tunnel, I want to see how Yunlan City will break this deadlock this time."

Rogetov was overjoyed.

So the KGB also prepared to do the same.

Digging a tunnel is a simple matter. You just need to avoid the forest wall on the border of Yunlan City, and then you can smoothly enter Yunlan City.

It should be about 30 to 40 kilometers of excavation, that should be enough.

Using a tunnel boring machine would be faster, but it requires excavation at a depth of over 100 meters underground, and the deep excavation must be done at night to make it easier to conceal.

At the same time, it is important to be careful to avoid areas with very hard rocks underground.

This is the current situation in the entire border region of Yunlan City.

Zhao Mancang was unaware of this matter at first. It wasn't until later, when the Black Cross forces reported that the agents throughout Yunlan City had remained silent for the past two months.

Only then did he react.

It is estimated that intelligence agencies in places like the US and Moscow have already sent messages.

Keep these agents silent.

This must be because Moscow and other institutions have found alternative paths.

Thinking of this, Zhao Mancang became curious and held a meeting with Chen Guohua and others to discuss it.

However, holding meetings is not very useful, since it's just a dry discussion without any accurate information, so the goal is to reach a conclusion.

Basically impossible.

It wasn't until three days later, when Zhao Mancang went to the Forest Great Wall for sightseeing and was taking Zheng Ruoyan to enjoy the scenery nearby, that he suddenly discovered some unexpected events.

He is very familiar with the situation on this side of the border.

After all, the trees in the Great Wall of Forest were planted by him personally, so it's very clear and understandable.

To my surprise, a few trees on this section of the Great Wall have unexpectedly withered.

It's not completely dried out, but rather it's become nutrient-deficient.

Upon seeing this, Zhao Mancang immediately realized something.

So after he sent Zheng Ruoyan back to the villa, he came here personally to check on her after nightfall.

Sure enough, he discovered a tunnel boring machine in operation underground.

"Well, that's quite something, actually trying to pull a sneaky trick on me?" Zhao Mancang laughed immediately.

If others can't find this tunnel, why can't he?
However, the tunnel is located nearly 100 meters underground, yet it can still affect the Great Wall of Forest on the surface.

Do the tree roots extend so deep into the ground?

Never mind, let's not worry about that.

The most important thing now is to destroy this tunnel, and ideally trap it like a turtle in a jar.

The subway construction in Yunlan City is just missing a tunnel boring machine.

Therefore, Zhao Mancang filled in all the passages at the entrance of the tunnel without hesitation.

Block all entrances and exits.

In this way, these people can only be buried deep underground, with nowhere to escape.

The water and food these people carried certainly wouldn't last a week.

They will be trapped deep underground and die, without Zhao Mancang needing to lift a finger.

As the tunnel collapsed, with no way to go up or down, the workers guarding the tunnel boring machine panicked.

Moreover, they have no way to contact the outside world.

Even if we can make contact with the outside world, it's unlikely we can rescue them in a short time.

Moreover, the space they were in that collapsed area was very small.

With so many people, once the already scarce oxygen here is depleted, they will be close to death.

According to outsiders, Zhao Mancang returned to the municipal government office building immediately after finishing this matter.

They found Lü Yangui, Chen Guohua, Zeng Zhaoshun, and others.

"Gentlemen, I discovered a tunnel on the other side of the border, and I have now destroyed it."

"Send men to neighboring Ethiopia to cause them trouble; they must find the entrance to their tunnels."

Chen Guohua and the others were stunned when they heard Zhao Mancang's words.

How is this possible?
But seeing Zhao Mancang's serious expression, everyone knew that this was the truth.

Since that's the case, we can only split up and work to resolve this matter.

Just as Zhao Mancang was busy dealing with the tunnel issue, an uninvited guest arrived in the capital of the Saudi Empire.

"Welcome, my friend, I've missed you so much!"

A Sam from Los Angeles was greeted by several other Sams when he landed at the airport.

This Los Angeles man, named Cal Levin, is a top-ranking U.S. Air Force pilot.

The mission to be carried out this time was naturally to take away the Mach 5 fighter jets that the Saudi Empire had purchased from Yunlan City.

Cal Levin was working with personnel from both the intelligence agency and the investigation bureau to carry out this mission.

After exchanging pleasantries, the two sides quickly left the airport.

Under the cover of night, Cal Levin looked at the head of the intelligence agency and said:
"Is your mission this time really completely finalized? Once I learn to pilot that fighter jet, will I have two hours from takeoff to departure?"

At this moment, Cal Levin must ensure his departure time; otherwise, he may not be able to complete this mission.

The Mach 5 fighter jet is a very novel fighter jet, and its performance in all aspects is unparalleled in the world.

In the past few months, the intelligence agency had already stolen the instruction manual and other information for the Mach 5 fighter jet from the Saudi Empire.

After studying for the past few months, Cal Levin has finally grasped some basic information.

However, he had never actually piloted such a fighter jet, so he was still a little apprehensive.

On the other hand, Yunlan City is right next door, less than 500 kilometers away from the airport on the Saudi side.

This distance is too close.

Therefore, Cal Levin was afraid that as soon as he showed himself, he would be instantly killed by missiles from Cloud City.

Because nobody knows whether Yunlan City actually installed any locators on the Mach 5 fighter jets.

In short, he couldn't take any risks, but the mission had been assigned, and as a soldier, Cal Levin had to carry it out.

"Rest assured, Carl, we have made all the arrangements; we will have at least two hours."

The head of the intelligence agency stated earnestly.

They have spent a lot of money on this mission, bribing several officials in the Saudi Empire.

It also took several months to finally get to the bottom of the situation.

With all the preparations done, if the mission still fails, their intelligence agency really doesn't know how to get that Mach 5 fighter jet back to Sam.

"Okay, then I'll get ready!"

Callevin pondered.

He knew he had no way out, so he had no choice but to fight with his back against the wall.

While Callevin and his men were busy preparing to steal the Mach 5 fighter jet, on the other side of the Saudi capital, inside the royal palace...

Nasser Aziz looked at the head of the intelligence agency before him and asked in a deep voice:
"So Sam has already sent an ace pilot, right?"

"Yes, Your Highness, their people just arrived this afternoon. Based on current predictions, they will most likely carry out their mission to steal the plane sometime after midnight tonight."

Upon hearing this, Nasser Aziz's expression darkened, but he remained silent.

He knew that the Saudi Empire was caught in the middle, like a sandwich filling.

But what could he do?

Although the Saudi Empire is called an empire, it does not have the strength to match.

Judging from the current situation, if Sam is not allowed to "steal" the Mach 5 fighter jet, there will be endless troubles to come.

Therefore, Nasser Aziz had no other choice, or rather, the entire Saudi Empire had no other choice.

Neither Yunlan City nor Sam are people that Nasser Aziz and his group can afford to offend.

At this point, turning a blind eye is the best course of action.

Although there was nothing we could do, there was nothing we could do.

Otherwise, even if the Saudi Empire were completely blind, it wouldn't have allowed Sam to steal the technical data related to the Mach 5 fighter jet without Nasser Aziz's knowledge.

How can this be?

The Saudi Empire's intelligence agencies are not that incompetent.

"By the way, what about Moscow?"

After a while, Nasser Aziz suddenly spoke up and asked.

The only things the Saudi Empire can't deal with are Moscow and Sam.

Therefore, Nasser Aziz's approach to these two countries that wanted to steal Mach 5 fighter jets was to pretend he didn't see them and act as if he knew nothing about it.

"They are ready, and their ace pilot is expected to arrive at our capital airport in a couple of days." (End of Chapter)
