Chapter 24 New Information
The fierce battle in Lamodro prison quickly became the focus of the news, with Yuri and Ivankov both standing by the TV and watching the latest reports of the operation. As one of the insiders of the entire incident, Yuri felt a little worried at this moment.
In recent years, Yuri has removed some of the impulsive character from the past. He has begun to get used to his life of making a fortune in silence. However, in recent times, the conflict between Escobar and the Colombian government has begun to escalate. Even the Gorky Brotherhood has been implicated, which makes Yuri feel scared and uneasy.
Yuri quickly contacted Seriosha to report what happened in La Modro prison today. Seriosha's tone was relaxed, as if he didn't think Escobar's arrogance would cause a catastrophe to the entire organization.
"Don't worry, Yuri! When you told me that Escobar wanted to purchase arms, I knew that he and the Colombian government had reached a point of perseverance! But what's the matter? Through arms trade, we can get more funds from the Medellin Group, and only few people within the Medellin Group know about our cooperation! Even if Escobar fails, we can make him unable to speak forever." Seryosha replied in a relaxed tone. But Yuri was surprised. He never thought of attacking his own customers, which did not conform to Yuri's principle of dealing with people! Moreover, the Gorky Brotherhood has never had a precedent for attacking customers.
"Seryosha, do you really think so? I think it's a bit unkind to do this? After all, our reputation has always been very good!" Yuri questioned Seryosha's point of view on the phone.
"Yuri, I know this makes you feel unhappy! But I think this will happen sooner or later. Escobar destined that he would not have a good end when he attacked the Ministry of Justice! A world-famous drug lord means that the whole world is wanted. Look at Escobar's old rival, Kali Group, who is much more low-key!" Seriosha replied again.
"Seryosha, my relationship with Escobar is pretty good. We have been working together happily over the years..." Yuri was still trying hard on the phone.
"Yuri, I understand what you mean, this way! I will not take the initiative to launch Escobar. I will try my best to meet all his needs and do everything in business! But from now on, except for business matters, I think you and Ivankov should be more alienated from him. And once things fall into an irreversible level, I will definitely take action because I have no choice!" Selyosha does not intend to continue discussing. This matter is about life and death. Yuri can be loyal, but Selyosha cannot, because he is responsible for the safety of the entire Gorky Brotherhood and other customers. This matter cannot be emotionally employed!
At this moment, through photos of the battle at Lamodro's prison, the CIA headquartered in Langley finally determined that the source of the arms behind the Medellin Group was from Soviet equipment on the Afghan battlefield. Because the tanks involved in this prison robbery operation were obviously the standard equipment of the Soviet army t72.
"Everyone, it seems that a new guy has come to our territory. He can smuggle weapons from Afghanistan to Colombia without knowing it! This is simply an insult to our CIA!" At the intelligence analysis meeting against the Medellin Group, Chief Director Jimmy McCann announced with some self-deprecating self-deprecating. His subordinates, a group of the most outstanding intelligence elites, lowered their heads in shame.
"I think there might be a Soviet government behind this. Will they secretly support the Medellin Group?" Someone simply guessed.
"Evidence, what I need is evidence! If your statement can stand firm, we can ruin the Soviets' face! But do you think we are all three-year-olds? Anyone we are doing can only regard the possibility you say as a joke!" McCann said sarcastically without hesitation.
"Boss, I think we should check the customs in Colombia. I think it is impossible to find a small beach to unload the shore with equipment as heavy as an armored vehicle. We must be transported to the shore through heavy lifting equipment at a professional dock! Of course, I don't rule out the possibility of air freight, but the cost is too high! I don't think anyone will do this!" Another intelligence officer said after careful consideration.
"Yes, I finally heard it a little reliable!" McCann pointed at his colleague who had just spoken and praised him gently.
"There are also the wreckage of the stinger missile we discovered last time! We have analyzed that this batch of missiles was aided to the Pakistani government through secret channels! But there is no T72 tank in Pakistan, so I boldly speculate that this batch of missiles eventually arrived in Afghanistan! Combined with the Soviet "hand drill", I think these missiles must be in areas where aircraft from the Soviet Union or Pakistan will take off and land frequently. I think they should be areas close to the border!" Another young man who wanted to show off said, McCann just nodded in agreement, and he hoped to hear more explanations.
At this moment, the conference room was suddenly knocked! Someone outside the door signaled McCann to come out. McCann hurriedly got up and walked outside, and closed the door casually.
"McCarn, we found traces of the two tanks on the road where the prisoners retreated, but they had been destroyed by bombs! No particularly useful information was left! However, McCarn! Operating tanks is a technical job. From the battle in the entire Lamodro prison, it can be seen that those sitting inside are not novices! They are very experienced and skillful! When the Colombian government planes arrived, they didn't care at all, but as soon as our plane arrived, they rushed into the prison immediately! I think this is their intentional desire to mingle with the prisoners and guards in the prison to avoid being hit by our air!"
"What do you think these people have backgrounds?" McCann asked back.
"Experienced armored soldiers have rich experience in driving T72! It is not difficult to find such people now! Cubans, some immigrants from Eastern Europe, or Soviets are possible! But I prefer the Soviets, because the two tanks are not simple versions exported to friendly countries in the Soviet Union, but genuine equipment from the Soviet Red Army. There are some subtleties that the crew would not know if they had not actually operated!"...
