Because she was going to see Lei Hao, she changed into casual clothes after washing up.

He naturally did not carry a sidearm on his waist.

Lei Hao's eyelids twitched as he read it.

However, he flipped it over with one hand.

A QLU-11 sniper grenade launcher was prominently displayed in his hand.

The enormous muzzle of the gun was pointed directly at Colonel Carrie.

Looking for a gun?

"Your little toy might not work very well."

"Why don't you try this big guy in my hand?"

Now it was Colonel Carrie's turn to have her eyelids twitching wildly.

Back at the camp, Bailu gave her a detailed account of her actions with Lei Hao.

In particular, Lei Hao conjured up a truck-mounted cannon and a grenade launcher he had never seen before.

At the time, neither Colonel Carrie nor Blue Eagle could fully believe what White Heron said.

The idea of ​​weapons appearing out of thin air is something they believe is simply impossible.

However, they did not believe that the egret was lying.

Instead, it is speculated that Lei Hao must have hidden the truck-mounted artillery and weapons in some concealed place beforehand.

Then, when the egret wasn't paying attention, he quickly took out his weapon.

This is what creates the illusion of something appearing out of nowhere.

Because they could clearly hear the intense artillery fire coming from the battlefield.

However, a subsequent inspection of the scene revealed no traces of weapons.

Furthermore, Kunsa's body, after careful examination, was indeed found to have been blasted apart by a high-explosive grenade.

I had previously doubted what Bailu said.

But now, after witnessing Lei Hao suddenly conjure up the QLU-11 sniper grenade launcher.

Colonel Carrie completely believed White Heron's report.

Because he had carefully scanned the entire room when he came in.

There was no sign of weapons being stored in the room.

The grenade launcher with its enormous muzzle in front of her was something Lei Hao had conjured up out of thin air right in front of her.

Colonel Carrie was absolutely certain that this was neither magic nor any kind of illusion.

Now she finally understood that Lei Hao was no ordinary person.

Colonel Carrie couldn't help but ask curiously:

"Could you tell me how you conjured this weapon?"

Lei Hao shook his head, casually waved his hand, and the weapon vanished instantly.

"This is not okay."

"Shouldn't everyone keep some secrets of their own?"

"Let's get back to the main topic and talk about the important things we need to discuss."

Colonel Carrie smiled helplessly:

“Mr. Lei, although the people in your organization are indeed very influential in Hong Kong.”

"However, their influence in the Golden Triangle region is simply insufficient!"

"Furthermore, although you and Mr. Huang Shitong are wealthy, are you really willing to invest a huge sum of money to help us?"

"You should know that the purchase of weapons and equipment often costs tens or even hundreds of millions of US dollars."

"Our anti-tyranny alliance has more than 1000 armed men, and in order to maintain this force, we have almost exhausted all our resources."

Ray Hall was well aware of Colonel Carrie's deep concerns.

Purchasing weapons to arm an army is no small expense.

Even if each person were equipped with the most basic semi-automatic rifle, the AK-47, the unit price on the arms market would be close to a thousand dollars.

Moreover, such large-scale arms transactions are often priceless and not readily available; they cannot be easily purchased simply by having money.

Their anti-tyranny alliance, with over 1000 members, required a massive amount of various types and quantities of weapons and equipment.

Basic personal weapons: such as rifles, pistols, grenades, etc.

Squad support weapons: such as light machine guns, rocket launchers, sniper rifles, etc.

Motor vehicles: including transport vehicles, armored vehicles, command vehicles, etc.

Communication equipment: such as radios, satellite phones, etc.

Protective equipment: such as helmets, bulletproof vests, goggles, etc.

Other auxiliary equipment: ammunition, gear, maintenance equipment, medical supplies, etc.

Preliminary estimates put the cost of the Anti-Tyranny Alliance’s one-time equipment procurement at between $1500 million and $2500 million.

The specific amount depends mainly on the performance and grade of the selected equipment.

If subsequent transportation, routine maintenance, and personnel training costs are included, the total cost could potentially double over a 5-year period.

For many developing countries, this expenditure is equivalent to 10% to 20% of their annual defense budget.

In conflict-prone regions, black market transactions may reduce initial investment.

However, in the long run, it will inevitably face the huge dilemma of ammunition supply disruptions and equipment maintenance difficulties.

Therefore, the Anti-Tyranny Alliance currently spends more than $400 million annually on equipment maintenance alone.

With the limited forces currently available in their anti-tyranny alliance...

Effectively dealing with the complex and ever-changing emergencies in the Golden Triangle is indeed extremely difficult.

If we want to more effectively combat those ruthless warlords who traffic contraband under armed guard.

The expansion of the Anti-Tyranny Alliance's army is now inevitable.

However, even a penny can stump a hero.

The funds for the Anti-Tyranny Alliance certainly didn't come from thin air.

Their funding largely comes from official bounties earned for performing guard duties or capturing wanted criminals.

In addition, there is a small amount of secret or overt aid from other countries.

Moreover, in the process of carrying out these high-risk missions, the Anti-Tyranny Alliance inevitably suffered many casualties or injuries among its soldiers.

This would require paying a substantial amount of compensation.

In summary, the Anti-Tyranny Alliance's total annual expenditure is very close to, and may even reach, $600 million.

If the Anti-Tyranny Alliance cannot find new and stable sources of revenue, it will likely soon fall into a financial deficit.

Therefore, she accepted Lei Hao's invitation to join the organization.

Colonel Carrie was actually very tempted deep down.

She was eager to leverage Lei Hao's extensive network and business acumen to generate sustainable revenue for the Anti-Tyranny Alliance.

After all, Lei Hao's reputation as a financial investment genius is well-deserved.

In just six months, he amassed an astonishing fortune of over HK$100 billion.

That's equivalent to more than 20 billion US dollars!

Imagine if they had this huge sum of money to expand and support their anti-tyranny alliance.

Therefore, they have the potential to expand their forces to the level of a full division.

Furthermore, the remaining funds are sufficient to sustain the Anti-Tyranny Alliance for up to 50 years.

Of course, Colonel Carrie only imagined it in her mind.

She would never actually try to seize Lei Hao's private property.

Her real hope was simply to receive tangible help from Lei Hao.

This is to alleviate the increasingly severe financial strain on the Anti-Tyranny Alliance.

Lei Hao walked up to Colonel Carrie, gently placed his hands on her shoulders, and said earnestly:

"Colonel Carrie, you don't need to worry about the funding at all."

“You may not fully understand now the true meaning of my gifting you this 5% stake in Lei's Holdings.”

“I can tell you very clearly that we only hold this 5% stake.”

"In the future, it will also allow you to steadily receive hundreds of millions of dollars in bonuses and profits every year."

"As for the specific businesses we will be operating, I will convene a shareholders' meeting as soon as I return to Hong Kong."
