Chapter 839 It’s fun to watch
The interrogation on Pavel's side didn't seem to be going well, which was not good news for Gao Guang. However, the progress on Gao Guang's side was surprisingly smooth.
The person Lloyd was looking for was definitely someone he had the right relationship with, because he directly found the contact person of the US Army in Georgia, and then, without Gao Guang coming to visit, the contact person came directly to Gao Guang.
In 2008, Russia fought a war in Georgia, and then in 2018, the United States stationed more than a thousand troops in Georgia. Although the symbolic significance of these more than a thousand troops exceeds the actual military effect, we must admit that these more than a thousand troops The troops are Georgia’s reassurance and courage.
In addition to stationing troops, NATO also conducts joint military exercises with Georgia every year.
Georgia certainly cannot command the Americans, and it is not Georgia's turn to take charge of the annual military exercises. Therefore, although the liaison officer of the US military stationed in Georgia does not have a high military rank, basically all coordination work is done by him, which is embarrassing. Very big.
We cannot say that this liaison person is the Supreme Emperor in Georgia. This is a bit excessive, but saying that the liaison person is the gatekeeper for the Supreme Emperor, this status is enough.
After calling Lloyd for up to twenty minutes, someone came to the hotel. "Hello, I just received a call from the general and came to visit immediately."
Although the liaison person has a military position, he is mainly responsible for the civilian work of coordinating communication. He has less of a military aura. He also wears a pair of square-looking black-rimmed glasses, which makes him look more polite.
Moreover, the contact person spoke very artistically. He directly said that he had received a call from the general, but did not say which general it was. This shows that he is one of his own, and then he said that he would come to visit immediately, which shows that he The highlight matter is taken seriously, and it is an important matter.
Wearing casual clothes, he still smelled of alcohol when he spoke. He might have received a call while he was drinking and ran over. The contact person said that there was a reason for his urgency.
A member of our staff came to do business and came to show respect. This contact person has a very good eye. "My name is Martin Baker. You can just call me Martin. Nice to meet you, Mr. Mad Dog." The highlight was extended. When shaking hands with the contact person, he smiled and said: "Nice to meet you."
Inviting Martin to sit down, Gao Guang said very implicitly: "Martin, before you come here, you should know what you are going to do."
Martin smiled and said: "The general said it in detail. I am very happy to provide a small help. This matter is very easy. I wonder when Mr. Mad Dog plans to do it?"
Seeing that Martin looked quite confident, Gao Guang thought for a moment and said, "The sooner the better." "The sooner the better, how about we go now?"
Gao Guang was stunned for a moment and said: "Now?"
"Yes, if time is tight, let's get things done now. Well, that's it. I have already thought of the candidate. Although the president does not need to personally intervene in this matter, it is best to let him know about it. matter, and then the president appoints a specific person in charge to handle it.
This is safer. If Mr. Mad Dog agrees, I will start contacting you now, okay?"
Gao Guang was not doubtful, he was just a little surprised. How could a young major say he could meet the president? Although Georgia is a small country, it is still a country.
"Then please contact me."
Martin immediately took out his cell phone, dialed a number, and soon said into the phone: "I'm Martin Baker, and I want to talk to Madam President."
After a while, Martin continued: "Madam President, I was ordered to receive a secret envoy. There is a transnational arms smuggling case involving some high-level and military personnel in your country. Now Mr. Special Envoy and I can talk to you."
Can we meet in person? Okay, see you later."
After hanging up the phone, Martin said to Gao Guang: "President Saroshvili is waiting for us, can we leave now? I started driving here, how can you get there easily?"
Gao Guang spread his hands and said: "Then take your car. Uh, you just said that I need to disguise myself as a special envoy, or do I need to say something?"
Martin said very politely: "You can represent the CIA or the Pentagon. It's up to you to decide which identity you like. None of this matters."
"Uh, okay, let's set off now."
Gao Guang stood up. He wanted to take Ye Ye with him, but after thinking about it, he felt that Riccardo was still considerate, so he finally said loudly: "Riccardo, come out with me for a moment."
Martin was driving drunk, but Gao Guang didn't say anything because Martin drove a car that was completely different from the local cars for taking pictures, and then Martin drove straight to the Presidential Palace of Georgia. Under this situation, Gao Guang couldn't say that you were drunk.
It’s better not to drive if you’ve drunk alcohol.
The president, it was the first time Gao Guang met him, but he didn't expect that he would be so casual and arrogant when meeting the president.
Martin drove the car directly to the Presidential Palace and drove directly in. There was no security check or body search at all. He took Gao Guang and Riccardo directly into the presidential reception room.
Gao Guang couldn't help but become nervous, and he regretted that he didn't change into a formal suit or something. Without waiting, Gao Guang arrived at the place and saw the president directly.
The president of Georgia is a woman. In fact, she is originally from France, because although she is of Georgian descent, she was born and raised in Paris, has French nationality, and has served as the French ambassador to Italy.
Ambassador to the United States, he finally became a Georgian citizen when he served as the French ambassador to Georgia, and became the Foreign Minister of Georgia.
Then Saroshvili became the president of Georgia.
This is still a highlight
I only found out after listening to Martin's brief introduction on the road. Although it sounds a bit magical, I can also understand why this president is easy to talk to.
Although she was already in the same grade as the old lady, Saroshvili looked at least twenty years younger than her actual age. When she saw Martin, she stood up and said in fluent English: "Hello, Martin."
Martin saluted Saroshvili, and then he said respectfully: "I'm sorry to bother you now. This is the secret envoy sent by the United States, codenamed Mad Dog."
At first, I was still a little uneasy, but now, Gao Guang said calmly: "Hello, Miss Saroshvili." It is not appropriate to call an old man who is almost seventy years old a miss, and in this kind of situation,
It is even impolite in serious situations, but Gao Guang just called it that, because as a friend of middle-aged and elderly women, he knew how to call it.
Sure enough, Saroshvili said with a faint smile: "Hello, Mr. Special Envoy."
The three of them sat down separately. Saroshvili said with a smile: "Is there any problem, Mr. Special Envoy?" "That's right."
Gao Guang seemed very relaxed, and he said calmly: "The CIA captured an arms dealer named Pavel. According to his confession, he stored a large number of arms in an arsenal in Georgia. This is evidence of crime. We need to use this batch of arms as evidence."
The evidence will be withheld and may be transported away when needed. We want to know your attitude: should you investigate and close the case secretly, or should you make it public and deal with all those involved with Pavel?"
Saroshvili said without hesitation: "Is there such a thing? We fully cooperate with you in dealing with this criminal act of transnational arms smuggling, but this kind of thing should be handled secretly."
In fact, there was no need to say anything, no need to threaten or anything. Since Gao Guang came to the door with his contact person, Saroshvili certainly would not refuse.
Just going through the motions, there is a reason. Gao Guang immediately smiled and said: "Thank you."
Martin interfaced: "Since it is handled secretly, it is best to resolve this matter as soon as possible."
Saroshvili didn't even ask where the arms were, nor did she ask who was involved in the matter. But after thinking about it for a moment, she said seriously: "In order to avoid the secret from leaking out, there is no need to go through it."
The Ministry of National Defense and the General Staff Department, I have ordered the Minister of Logistics to be fully responsible for this matter, and he will be the one to interface with you."
After finishing speaking, Saroshvili said to the assistant behind him: "Call the Minister of Logistics and ask him to meet with Mr. Special Envoy immediately to negotiate and handle the matter."
The assistant made a phone call. After a while, after the assistant whispered a few words to Saroshvili, Saroshvili smiled at Gao Guang and said: "Our logistics minister has already started rushing to the military building. I'm sorry.
, I can only ask you two to go to the military building to continue handling this matter."
Martin stood up, so Gao Guang also stood up. After the three of them took turns shaking hands, they said a few polite words and left immediately. It took about ten minutes.
Gao Guang felt a little awkward in his heart because it was too fast and unreal, but there seemed to be no sign of anything being done casually.
Things were too difficult to handle in the past, so now that things are going smoothly, Gao Guang feels a little uneasy.
But when he arrived at the Georgian Defense Forces Building, Martin went straight to the Logistics Minister's office without asking anyone to inform him. Then Gao Guang met directly with the Logistics Minister of the Georgian Defense Forces.
Don't say anything, don't mention anything about detaining arms as evidence of crime or anything like that. Everyone knows what's going on, so just skip these meaningless hypocritical clichés and go straight to the main point.
The logistics director was in his forties. After meeting Martin and Gao Guang, he saluted each other and then said bluntly: "What are you two going to do?"
Martin did his part and said, "What do you think is better?"
The logistics minister said sincerely: "I will send a regiment over and surround Pavel's people first. If they put down their weapons and surrender, forget it. If they refuse to surrender, of course they will surrender. There is no second possibility."
Martin looked at Gao Guang, who nodded and said, "Okay."
The logistics minister immediately grabbed the phone on the table, and then he whispered: "Send your armored regiment to surround the arsenal, and then notify the people inside to put down their weapons and surrender, and act now."
It sounds confusing, but after putting down the phone, the logistics minister said: "We are already preparing. The troops will be deployed in one hour at most, and then just go and receive it."
Martin was a little surprised and said: "Do we still need to send additional troops? There must be a lot of soldiers guarding the arsenal."
"They are all light infantry and lack the necessary deterrence. Moreover, their relationship with Pavel is not clear. For the sake of safety, it is better to send troops from other places."
Martin smiled and said, "Thank you."
After finishing speaking, Martin said to Gao Guang: "Mr. Special Envoy, do you think this is okay?" "Yes, very good."
Gao Guang spread his hands and said, "Do you need us to go to the scene and have a look?"
Martin pondered for a while, but the logistics minister said: "Okay, by the time we arrive, the matter should be resolved. Mr. Special Envoy just needs to take stock of the evidence, and the car is ready. Please."
It can be done in just a few words. If I had known it was so easy, why would I have found a knight mercenary group or used shadows?
What Gao Guang was thinking about was whether he should pull all the people from the king's defense over. He was not afraid of a fight, but he felt guilty that he had dragged people all the way here and ended up doing nothing.
