Chapter 597 Peshawar

After having dinner in the French restaurant, drinking in the executive lounge and taking a nap on the two-meter-wide bed, Chen Chen's two-day stay in Tunisia ended uneventfully.

Xia Xing has already arranged a flight to Pakistan, from Tunisia to Dubai, and then to Islamabad after a transfer.

As for the route from Islamabad to Peshawar, it is actually not that difficult.

Colleagues there had already arranged vehicles and security in advance. After landing, Chen Chen only needed to follow the team like a real businessman going to Pakistan for inspection, and there would be no risk.

However, although it sounds so simple, the nearly 30-hour journey still made Chen Chen miserable.

Humans are such strange animals. Just a few days ago, Chen Chen was still fighting hard on the battlefield. Not to mention resting, even eating and drinking were luxuries.

At that time, he did not feel any hardship, as if everything was as it should be.

On the contrary, when the real difficulties were over, he couldn't stand it anymore.

Fortunately, Xia Xing booked a first-class ticket for the entire trip, so at least changing the dressing on the wound on his leg was not a problem.

After finally landing in Islamabad, Chen Chen felt like his legs were about to break.

But when he moved out of the cabin, boarded the VIP-only shuttle bus, and saw the two people sitting in the car, he finally regained some of his spirits.

Shi Dakai, Peng Xucheng.

After not seeing each other for a few months, Chen Chen originally thought that Shi Dakai, who was in charge of coordinating the overall situation, would have some obvious changes, but at first glance, he was almost exactly the same as when he handed Pu Bei to him.

Simple combat uniform, unshaved stubble, standard hairstyle, and skin that is one shade darker.

It can be said that compared with Peng Xucheng who has the image of a businessman next to him, if he were in a TV series with this image, he might not even be able to become a bodyguard.

But in fact, Shi Dakai is the real boss, and Peng Xucheng is just a manager who is slightly lower than him.
The two looked at each other, and Shi Dakai asked:
"Captain, how is your injury?"

"No big deal."

Chen Chen waved his hand and replied:
"No muscles were injured. Uncle Chuan did a good job of stitching. I've already done anti-infection treatment. I think it will take a month or two to fully recover."

"How are you doing there?"

In fact, the situation in Pubei is always under the control of Chen Chen. Not to mention major decisions, even the approval of some ordinary transfers of human and financial resources will eventually come to him.

Even when the battle was at its most intense, Chen Chen would take time to deal with it and would never let Pu Bei's forces be completely isolated from the group.

But even so, it is still necessary to ask Shi Dakai in person.

When a couple meets, they have to find topics to talk to each other. As the most important partners, shouldn’t you also have a chat?

“It can basically be said to be completely stable.”

"The Pubei railway project has begun to get on track. Bao Xiaomei has completely 'unified' Wa State."

"At present, our relationship with them has begun to become simple, that is, pure cooperation and separation."

"The more complicated ones are Kachin, and there is no fun in fighting them."

“But to be honest, we have no intention of completely stabilizing Kachin in a short period of time.”

"On the one hand, we need a chaotic area to tie up the resources of the Bagan government. On the other hand, a situation that is too peaceful is not conducive to the development of our combat effectiveness."

"So, it's basically the status quo - but Myitkyina is still pretty stable, and we have an armored brigade there."

"Armored Brigade is such a strange expression."

Chen Chen smiled helplessly and said:

"I think we should just call it the Armored Company again. There are only a few dozen armored vehicles, and we have formed a brigade."

"When in Rome, do as the Romans do. What else can I do?"

Shi Dakai also thought this name was ridiculous - especially after reading the battle report of Chen Chen and his team in Syria, he felt that the battle in Pubei was actually no different from playing house in many cases.

But like he said, when in Rome, do as the Romans do.

If all the surrounding armed forces call their hundreds of people into a brigade, then you will appear cowardly if you don't do so.
Having said this, Shi Dakai paused for a moment, then looked at Peng Xucheng and said:

"Xu Cheng, please tell me about the financial issues."

"I don't need to say that."

Peng Xucheng shook his head and replied:

"The boss can understand the financial statements. We have discussed this before."

"The latest change is that part of the commission for the Syria mission has been received, totaling 2.2 million US dollars."

"Calculated in proportion, it's about 20%."

"We have people communicating with their specialists about the subsequent payment, but it probably won't be quick."

"It's not a big deal."

Chen Chen waved his hand and said:

"The physical assets we have obtained are more valuable. This is the focus of your subsequent work."

"The experience of the gold mine can be used as a reference, but the scale of the Omar Oilfield is not on the same order of magnitude as the Huishai Gold Mine. You should add more people and bring in consultants if necessary."

“Be as professional and commercial as possible.”

“This is also one of the most important goals of our transformation.”

"I see."

Peng Xucheng nodded immediately, looking like he was going to obey.

After the conversation between the three of them ended, Li Bang, who was following behind Chen Chen, finally joined in and reminisced with Shi Dakai and Peng Xucheng one by one.

It has to be said that in terms of the closeness of their relationship, there is still a barrier between Li Bang, Shi Dakai, Chen Chen and Peng Xucheng.

So they didn't talk about too many sensitive or confidential topics, but simply talked about their recent situation and gossiped a little.

At this time, the special car had already left the airport. Looking at the strange yet familiar desert scene outside the window, Chen Chen asked casually:

“After arriving in Islamabad, what are our subsequent plans?”

"Have you guys completed the assignment regarding accommodation and transportation?"

"The handover is ready."

Shi Dakai nodded and replied:

“We are not going to Islamabad, we are going directly to Peshawar.”

"Go straight to Peshawar?"

Chen Chen asked with a little surprise.

"Yes, the situation in Islamabad has not been stable recently. There have been small-scale violent incidents in the city. The Pakistani military has begun to intervene to maintain stability. It will probably take some time to restore normal order."

"So, to be safe, we simply removed Islamabad from our itinerary."

"Go straight to Peshawar and fly away after finishing your business."

"clear."

Chen Chen had no doubts about Shi Dakai's safety. Even from his personal perspective, this was the best strategy.

His only worry was whether uncontrollable risks would occur after arriving in Peshawar if he did not establish contact with the Pakistani government in Islamabad in advance.

Thinking of this, he asked:
“Can our security team be trusted?”

"It is credible. All of them are members of Pakistani SSG, drawn from the Zalarr Battalion."

"They are very experienced in VIP protection. They have been responsible for many VIP protection missions before. They have also trained Nigeria's AFSF commandos. Their combat effectiveness is not weak."

"That's no problem." Chen Chen was not sure about SSG's combat effectiveness.

But as long as Pakistan sends SSG, it means that our project has been officially approved by Pakistan. Unless there are force majeure factors, some "ordinary" security problems are basically unlikely to occur.

The arrangements made by the big brother in the north are still quite safe.

Within the scope of their authority, the Dongfeng Corps has basically enjoyed the highest level of treatment.
The last worry was resolved, and Chen Chen felt completely relaxed.

He leaned on the seat of the business car and slowly fell asleep, and when he woke up, the car had arrived in Peshawar.

Rather than a city, it would be more accurate to say that this is an extra-large village settlement.

Looking around, Chen Chen could hardly see any high-rise buildings. All he could see were low-rise houses and dusty signs hanging outside the houses.

"Where is the gun shop street?"

Chen Chen rubbed his eyes which were a little blurry from sleep and asked Shi Dakai who was standing beside him with high energy.

"Bella Road, still two blocks away."

"Should we go straight there, or should we go to the hotel and rest first?"

"Go straight ahead. I need to locate ORSIS first."

"According to previous intelligence, the ORSIS factory should be in a large warehouse called Haris Khan, in a neighborhood where gun stores are concentrated."

"I don't know the exact location, but they have a big target. If we search along Bella Road, we should be able to find it."

"no problem."

Chen Chen made a decision and Shi Dakai responded quickly.

Through the translator, he gave orders to all the security personnel accompanying the team, and then this slightly special convoy turned into Bella Street and began to move slowly along this extremely famous street, but very few people could name it.

Looking at the "shops" with open doors on both sides of the road, Chen Chen couldn't help but admire them.

"The scale of arms trading here is really incomparable to that of Pubei."

"I remember when we first arrived in Mengka, the stock of weapons in a trading house was already rich, selling guns, cannons, and explosives, but compared to here, it's nothing."

"See that store? It specializes in AK series weapons."

"Is that an AK-201? The features are quite obvious."

"This thing has just been developed in Russia and has not yet been put into mass production. It is unbelievable that it can be found in Peshawar."

"What model is the AK-201?"

Li Bang on the side interrupted and asked.

"The Russians' latest assault rifle is considered an upgraded version of the AK-100 series."

"Strictly speaking, this gun can no longer be classified into the same series as the original AK-47. The technical style and design concept of this gun have undergone obvious changes."

"For a shooter who is used to the AK-74M, it shouldn't be too difficult to switch to this gun, but if you have been using the AK-47, 56 submachine gun, etc., it will probably be difficult to adapt to the style of this gun."

"However, this gun is considered to be one of the more representative of the fifth generation of Russian guns."

"When we go back, remember to buy a batch and take it back to study what's going on."

"No problem, I'll write it down."

Peng Xucheng nodded in agreement, while Chen Chen's eyes had already moved on to his next target.

"Look, who said there are no NATO weapons in Peshawar? AR-15!"

In the shabby shop, the AR-15 hanging in the most conspicuous position at the door is quite eye-catching. It can even be said that compared with other guns around it, it has a unique beauty that stands out from the crowd.
-
However, this is only the first impression.

Looking closely, this AR-15 is quite different from the original. The rear sight and front sight are slightly different from the original, and the herringbone design is directly copied from the HK416.

Stitched monster.

"What kind of gun is this? It doesn't look like an AR-15."

Li Bang asked curiously.

"I don't know, maybe a Z-15 Zbroyar or something like that."

Chen Chen shook his head and answered casually.

As the convoy moved forward, strange-shaped guns appeared before their eyes one after another. Chen Chen was truly enlightened. It was also the first time for him to see so many modified guns gathered in the same place.

In comparison, Pubei's magic modified card is really not good enough.
A few minutes later, at the end of the street, the convoy finally stopped.

After confirming that the external environment was safe, the SSG security team members gave the signal to get off the vehicle.

Chen Chen opened the door and carefully moved his injured leg out of the car. Shi Dakai subconsciously helped him up, but quickly let go.

Chen Chen looked at him in surprise and said:

"What? Help me!"

".I thought you didn't want help."

Shi Dakai answered with a helpless smile.

"I have a hard time walking now, so what's wrong with asking for help? I've seen almost all of this street, Peng Xucheng, what do you think?"

"The types of weapons here are different from what I expected."

Peng Xucheng hesitated for a moment, then explained:
"The number of light weapons is far lower than that of heavy weapons, which is totally unreasonable."

"Normally, a reasonable weapons market should trade a large number of light weapons and a small number of heavy weapons at the same time. For example, in Pubei, you can buy Type 81 rifles, heavy machine guns and mortars in a business."

“But obviously, there isn’t one here.”

"At first glance, all they had were guns."

"I don't understand. Don't they need stronger firepower? Or do the rules here not allow them to produce heavy weapons?"

“It has nothing to do with the rules.”

Chen Chen shook his head and explained:
"Since 2010, the power to manage firearms in Pakistan has been delegated to provincial governments, and provincial governments have flexibility in controlling weapons."

"Theoretically, if AK-201 can appear here, NSV should also appear here."

"After all, both are illegal, and there is almost no difference in severity."

"It's very strange. You have to solve this problem yourself."

“If we can get the answer, perhaps our subsequent export plans can be directly based on Peshawar.”

"clear."

Peng Xucheng nodded in agreement, and at this moment, Li Bang suddenly spoke:

"I saw the warehouse you mentioned."

"It's right there. It's really conspicuous."

Looking in the direction of his finger, Chen Chen saw a very modern logo on a large warehouse building.

ORSIS.

The distance is less than 100 meters and the target is right in front of us.

Chen Chen let out a long sigh and said to everyone:

"Okay, this is what we're looking for."

"Cheer up and get ready to get down to business!"
