From arms dealer to king of war

Qiao Jia got up from bed early in the morning, touched his side and found that the 'kitten' was already up...

He picked up the water on the bedside table and took a sip, then rubbed his face vigorously, put on his clothes, opened the door and walked out of his suite.

Looking at Memnon and Kuba sitting on both sides of the door of his room, Qiao Jia smiled and patted them on the head and said: "Get up, run a few laps with me, and then we will go to eat."

When Memnon heard this, he grinned his white teeth and said, "Boss, I'm going to notify the dragon lizard. He asked me to notify him when you get up."

Qiao Jia smiled and nodded, and said as he walked out: "Then let the old man hurry up. I think I am in good condition, and I will definitely not be trapped by him today."

When Memnon heard this, he nodded solemnly and said, "Okay, I'll inform the dragon lizard right away..."

Seeing Memnon running away with a smile, Qiao Jia knew that this boy did not value his ideal of "not being trapped".

I don’t know since when, Kaman, who was always only responsible for accompanying runners, began to increase his training intensity.

This old guy who is almost fifty years old is consciously improving his physical quality and condition.

Qiao Jia knows why old Kaman is like this...

This old guy, who was like the God of War in Qiao Jia's heart, began to feel the pressure as P·B grew stronger.

Kaman can also learn various special operations skills in the past.

However, as the war progressed, especially starting from Tobruk, the complex equipment in the headquarters and the coordinated tactics of multiple arms made Kaman feel that he could not keep up at all.

He could only start to improve or maintain his own condition, and wanted to spend more time with Boss Qiao.

Qiao Jia had thought about letting Kaman retreat to the second line to manage the base in Sangha Town, but Kaman was unwilling, and everyone in Team A was unwilling...

Because without Kaman, Team A is missing a sea-fixing needle, and the assault team composed of Qiao Jia and Dorian is always almost useless.

The most important thing is that with Kaman here, Qiao Jia's safety is guaranteed!

The old guy has so much experience!

He may not understand grand strategy, but as long as he is on the battlefield, he is like a loyal old dog, always leading Qiao Jia in the right direction.

No A-Team is complete without Kaman!

After walking out of the base building, Kuba took advantage of Qiao Jia to move his body, rubbed his hands and came to the boss's side, and said: "Boss, can we also participate in the mission outside the base?

Now our people are either cooks or artillerymen, and only a dozen are combatants.

We have nothing to do in the base, can we also go outside for a walk? "

Qiao Jia looked at Kuba sideways and said, "What are you going to do? Are you going to die?

Stay at the base honestly, and I will take you with me when I go out one day. "

As he spoke, Qiao Jia suddenly reacted, he hammered Kuba hard on the head and cursed: "What do you mean 'either a cook or an artilleryman'?

In your eyes, the people who co-authored the special forces team and the newcomers are not human beings?

You boy, please pay attention to what you say..."

Kuba touched his sore head and said a little unconvinced: "Boss, they are all mercenaries, and they will leave Central Africa sooner or later, but we will not, we will always be PB's people!"

Qiao Jia was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said: "I run a fucking mercenary company and I raise all mercenaries.

When you get too old and can no longer work, if you don’t take out money to retire and go home, do you expect me to provide for you in your old age? "

Kuba was stunned for a moment, then shook his head firmly and said: "Boss, it's different, we are different!

If you give us a chance, we can be like the members of the special team!

In fact, if we were in Central Africa, I wouldn't be afraid of them at all..."

Qiao Jia was amused by Kuba's appearance. He shook his head and said, "Then you, 'different', should you be particularly obedient?"

"certainly!"

Qiao Jia looked at Kuba who held his head high, patted him on the back, and said with a smile: "I won't go out if you obey me..."

The 'Ferryman', 'Goat' and 'Iron Hammer' went to the east, where the masters of the armored group might be hidden.

You yourself said that you are the best in Central Africa, why do you want to deliver food there? "

As he spoke, Qiao Jia heard the footsteps behind him and watched old Kaman and Memnon walking over. He patted Kuba on the back and said with a smile: "Hurry up and practice with me. What are you waiting for me? When I think you can do it, I will let you and Memnon form a team yourself.

But I heard that your study progress is not very good. You can't lead a team even if you can't recognize all the words. "

Bowser scratched his head in pain when he heard 'study'. They were a bunch of illiterate people who were already adults when they joined P.B. They could still become familiar with various special warfare equipment through rote memorization, but the complex tactical computers were not until now. They are also useless.

'Literacy' is a level that those powerful jungle ghosts must pass. However, Qiao Jia will never let them compete with the masters in medium-to-high-intensity battlefields, because the illiterate people are at the bottom!

The Mosul base is relatively dilapidated, but it still has everything it needs, and with the supplies brought by Boss Joe, the base is becoming more and more complete.

There are already many mercenaries doing morning exercises on the standard playground with a 400-meter track.

The playground is dotted with all kinds of 'prison fitness equipment', including rough barbells, horizontal bars, parallel bars, obstacle wooden walls, deep trenches and so on.

Compared to the army, these mercenaries from all over the world perform more diligently here.

Because there is no need for instructors to urge you here, death will urge you to work hard!

Qiao Jia and the others have been here for three consecutive days. When Qiao Jia stepped onto the runway, several mercenaries who seemed to have been waiting there followed them.

Those guys weren't there to socialize through running, but they were curious about that old man in Carman.

They are all soldiers, and it is not difficult to run five kilometers with a 15 kilogram weight.

But no one has ever seen a man who can run under 14 minutes while carrying a weight of 15 kilograms.

Moreover, the black old man appeared very relaxed after running. He had to wait until Boss P·B, who was almost trapped, caught up with him before they went to the cafeteria to have breakfast together.

Perhaps because they have more free time, Europeans and Americans love sports more than Asians.

Several buddies wearing tactical vests were part of them. They waited for a while when Qiaojia started running, waiting specifically for Kaman to start running, and then a few of them followed.

There was a guy running to the side with a stopwatch in his hand.

Qiao Jia did not stop the interested guys from doing anything. After a few laps, they had no time to think about what they were going to do.

Because Kaman will bring everyone's rhythm up, and then use extremely high speed to quickly break through everyone's endurance.

Athletes who want to keep up with him cannot carry weights, otherwise they will run out of energy within two kilometers at most.

Fortunately for Qiao Jia, he was used to being walked around by Old Kaman, and now he has given up on the idea of ​​trying to surpass Old Kaman, and instead began to enjoy the slow growth of endurance and physical reserves.

Trying hard not to be trapped is Boss Qiao’s ultimate goal!

Seeing a group of fools being led by Kaman to start running at a high pace, Qiao Jia grinned and began to enjoy his morning exercise.

But after a few minutes, Qiao Jia realized that something was wrong...

After two laps, those guys were not far behind Kaman. One of them, a tall and thin white man, was able to stay close to Kaman.

Just when Qiao Jia felt that he might have underestimated the heroes in the world, Kaman speeded up again.

The old guy's running posture is ugly. If you watch him running alone, you will think that he is an old wolf looking for food alone.

But when running turned into a race, and there were others around him for comparison, Kaman's speed increase was full of passion for "standing out".

Qiao Jia followed behind with the mood of watching a good show, and then slowly forgot his own rhythm, and then involuntarily slowed down on the 10th lap...

At this time, Kaman had already surpassed him by more than half a circle!

But what makes Qiao Jia feel strange is that the tall and thin white man can still keep up, while Kaman is still accelerating...

In the past, Qiao Jia was trapped near the end, but today, he was trapped by Kaman just after the eleventh day.

When Kaman passed by Qiao Jia, he clearly felt that the old guy seemed very happy, and his breathing was not messy at all but much lighter.

When Qiao Jia was halfway through the twelfth lap, the tall and thin white man also trapped him.

But by this time, Kaman had finished his morning exercise and was walking slowly, waiting for his boss to follow, amidst the incredible screams of a group of mercenaries.

At this time, Qiao Jia was no longer in the mood to run. He rushed into the group of mercenaries and asked curiously: "What happened?"

A black guy with thick lips bit his finger and made an incredible expression, and said: "13 minutes and 18 seconds, 5 kilometers with a weight of 15 kilograms, 13 minutes and 18 seconds..."

The current five-kilometer world record is 12 and a half minutes, O~MG, this old man is amazing, he doesn’t even sweat much..."

After hearing this, Qiao Jia curiously pointed at the tall, thin white man who had completed five kilometers and said, "Where is that guy? How was his result?"

A bearded man held up a stopwatch and said: "14 minutes and 5 seconds, this is also a record-breaking time. I have never seen a guy who can run like this when I was in the Rangers.

His rhythm was disrupted, otherwise his results would have been better.

Shit, what kind of monsters are these? "

When Qiao Jia heard this, he thought about Kaman's happy expression just now, so he walked next to the tall and thin white man and walked slowly with him and said: "What is your name? Which company do you belong to?"

After hearing this, the tall and thin white man looked at Qiao Jia with strange eyes and said, "Sir, my name is Ron Hoyle, codenamed 'Long Legs', and I used to be a sergeant in the Marine Corps reconnaissance team.

I am from P.B. I passed the expedition assessment and completed the diving training, and became a member of the level 10 special operations team. "

Upon hearing this, Qiao Jia patted his forehead and smiled awkwardly, and said, "I'm sorry, did I neglect you a little?"

Ron Hoyle was silent for a moment and said: "Sir, I passed the assessment alone because I walked in the desert, so I couldn't find a team to cooperate with..."

Qiao Jia realized at this time that this guy didn't fit in with others during the assessment, so he was rejected.

Those who passed the examination include 10 Bolivians, 19 Colombians, and 15 veterans from all over the world.

They all knew they had to go together, but this guy actually went through the test alone...

Mercenaries are very realistic. If you don't get along, there's something wrong with you. I won't cooperate with people I don't trust.

This guy is smarter than the people in the Rabbit Team. He followed the desert route taken by the pre-determined special operations teams and bypassed the obstacles set by P·B.

At that time, Qiao Jia didn't pay special attention to the remaining people because the "White Bear" of the Rabbit Team was injured, so he didn't notice this guy.

It’s really cool because he actually traveled through a war zone!

Just because he didn't fire a single shot doesn't mean that this guy isn't awesome!

But that's not what Qiao Jia cares about at the moment. He feels that he has found a good sparring partner for Kaman.

Seeing the troubled look on ‘Long Legs’, Qiao Jia smiled and said, “So you came to run to attract my attention, right?”

‘Long Legs’ was silent for a moment and said: “Yes, sir!

I want to find a team where I can perform my abilities and I need to make money.

P·B offers a lot of salary for level 10, but I need more, so I want to join the team with the most combat missions. "

Saying "Long Legs" straightened his body and looked at Qiao Jia seriously, and said: "Sir, I am the best!"

Qiao Jia now knew why no one wanted him, because there was something wrong with his purpose...

It's not because he is weak, but because his purpose is too clear. He is here for the boss's A team.

Qiao Jia thought for a while, and finally shook his head regretfully and said, "I don't know who sent you here, but a guy like you is not suitable to be a spy."

As Qiao Jia looked at Long Legs' flashing eyes, he shook his head and said, "Tell me, who arranged for you to participate in P·B's selection?

You followed the special operations team into the desert to observe them, right?

Is it the Pentagon or Military Intelligence? "

‘Long Legs’ was stunned for a moment, then said innocently: “Sir, I am not a spy!”

Qiao Jia waved his hand and said, "Do you know why I found you have a problem?"

As he spoke, Qiao Jia looked at the incomprehensible 'Long Legs', shook his head and said: "The underwear on your body and the shoes on your feet are not issued by P.B. I can't remember the specific prices of those things. Anyway, they are not Cheap.

You say you are short of money, but the watch you have is only owned by SEAL Team 6...

Originally, I really considered keeping you, because I don't care if you are a spy.

But you lied to me...

Tell me your purpose, and I will give you some severance pay to go home, otherwise you will suffer. "

Qiao Jia's words made the surrounding mercenaries alert. They all ate from P.B., so naturally they sided with Boss Qiao.

‘Long Legs’ watched Kaman walk up to him with a gloomy expression. He took a vigilant step to the side, then raised his hand and said, “OK, OK, let me tell you, I am the ‘accountant’ of this generation of the Heinz family!

Can we talk in another place? "

Qiao Jia was stunned, stared and said, "You actually came to the door yourself?"

'Long Legs' raised his hand and looked at Kaman, and said helplessly: "What can I do? That fool Jack exposed me...

Sir, I don't mean any harm, I just want to talk. What do you want to let go of that fool Jack? "

After hearing this, Qiao Jia said in disbelief: "Why bother participating in the selection when you can just make a phone call?"

‘Long Legs’ took another step sideways, trying to avoid Kaman’s cold gaze…

He said helplessly: "Sir, I really don't mean any harm, can you tell him not to touch the knife?

I just want to know about P·B’s personnel structure..."

Qiao Jia was amused by this guy...

"Do you think that by entering P·B undercover, you can find bargaining chips?"

‘Long Legs’ lowered his head and smiled bitterly and said: “Generally speaking, it’s okay, because all private contracting companies have more or less problems...

At least that's what my father said..."

Qiao Jia laughed and said: "Then your father has tricked you!"
