Chapter 604 Decryption

Chapter 604 Decryption
It is nearly 300 kilometers from Mandalay to Mengka, and the helicopter flew for one hour.

After getting off the plane, Chen Chen had no time to make arrangements for Yegor. He only asked Shi Dakai to take him around and immediately rushed to the Eastern Corps' base in Mengka.
-
That is the villa whose original owner has been posted on the wall.

After entering the villa, Chen Chen immediately saw the security guard standing at the door. The two were already old acquaintances, but the other party still stopped him and indicated that he needed to be checked.

"What's going on? Security requirements have been upgraded?"

Chen Chen asked with some confusion.

The other party took the rifle that Chen Chen took off from his body, smiled and replied:

"Security didn't upgrade, she upgraded it."

"Go ahead, she's waiting for you inside."

Although there was clearly a pistol hanging on Chen Chen's leg, the other party did not reach out.

Obviously, this was just a necessary procedure, and he had no intention of making things difficult for Chen Chen.

Pushing open the door of the villa room, Chen Chen saw Xiaoyu sitting behind the desk.

There was a pile of documents in front of her, so much that it covered the entire desk.

When she heard Chen Chen opening the door, she just looked up casually and then lowered her head again.

"Please sit down first. I'll be there in a moment."

"No, you think of this as your home, right? This is my office, sis!"

Chen Chen walked to the sofa and sat down, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. The tea on the table was still steaming. He took a sip and then suddenly realized and asked:

"Is this for me?"

".You drink it."

Xiaoyu finally put down the documents in her hand. She twisted her neck slightly and stood up. As she walked towards Chen Chen, she asked:
"How's your leg injury?"

"Oh, now you know to ask me about my injury. I never saw you ask before!"

Chen Chen spoke with a hint of sarcasm, but Xiaoyu glared at him without saying anything, and simply squatted down to check the wound on his leg that was exposed after the cloth was cut and stitched.

"There are no signs of infection or inflammation, so it should heal quickly."

"Uncle Chuan's skills are pretty good. It's a good idea to bring him along."

"How are you now? Can you move freely?"

"What's the matter? Are you in a hurry to send me on the next mission?"

".Don't make me slap you."

Xiaoyu clenched his fist and pretended to punch Chen Chen's wound. Chen Chen subconsciously shrank back and said helplessly:

"Stop joking - let's talk business."

"You called me here so urgently, is there any news from Davis?"

"Yes."

Xiaoyu stood up, nodded and replied:
"We just received news from there that both parties have reached an agreement."

"Davis and other persons involved will be dealt with in the next two weeks, and you have been selected to carry out this mission."

"The specific details of the plan have not yet been determined."

"But the general direction is clear - they will be sent to the target location to carry out the mission, and you will intercept them there and eliminate everyone including Davis."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Chen's brows immediately frowned.

"Both parties reached an agreement? You mean, JSOC reached an agreement with you?"

"I don't understand what this means. Dongfeng Group has always been an enemy of JSOC. Why did they choose us to carry out the mission?"

"Does this mean that our hostility with them has been resolved? Or..."

"The enemy is always the enemy, unless one side is completely destroyed."

Xiaoyu interrupted Chen Chen and continued:

"But in the face of greater interests, even the most diametrically opposed enemies can temporarily shake hands and make peace."

"The reason why we chose you is not because they are willing to let go of their grudges with you, but because, precisely because of the previous grudges, what is going to happen next will seem reasonable."

"After this incident, the conflict between the two of you will become more intense."

"However, such violent conflicts will be limited to a certain range."

"--Let's not discuss this for now. Are you going to do it or not?"

"Of course."

Chen Chen answered without hesitation, and then said:
"But I need to at least have a basic understanding of the mission first."

"Who are the targets? Why do we want to kill them? What consequences might we face? Is there a risk of someone else lurking behind the scenes? Etc."

"After all, you never told me the specifics of what happened to Davis."

"And this is what I need to know most."

"That's what I came to tell you today."

Xiaoyu's expression finally became serious. She looked directly into Chen Chen's eyes and said:
"I still can't tell you the whole truth. All you can access is information about the mission Davis carried out."

"But you should have guessed the bigger picture."

"But don't try to speak it out. Keep it to yourself and never tell anyone else."

"Understand?"

"clear."

Chen Chen nodded and sat up straight subconsciously.

"Operation White Rose."

An unfamiliar term came out of Xiaoyu's mouth, and then she continued:

"In July 2008, Donny Davis led a DEVGRU team into Gru and contacted the Gru military in the name of the IMET project, preparing to assist it in launching the so-called 'Unification War'."

"They formulated a series of mission objectives, went deep into the South Osaka region, conducted preliminary reconnaissance of key military targets, and transmitted intelligence to the Georgian military to provide reference for subsequent military operations."

"The operation lasted for nearly a month, and their infiltration covered almost the entire South Ao region."

"The intelligence they have is enough for Georgia to launch a blitzkrieg in the shortest possible time and completely occupy the entire area."

"You already know what happened next."

"On August 8, the team led by Davis intercepted intelligence about a group of so-called smugglers in advance. Using this as an excuse, Georgia sent troops to South Oslo and occupied Tskhinvali in just 8 hours, thus completing its de facto control over South Oslo."

"But then, Russia sent troops to expel Georgian troops from South Austria and recognized its independence."

“That’s what the Five Day War was all about—not much different from what you see on the news.”

"But that's not what makes Donny Davis and his squad special."

"The most important thing is that according to the original plan of the US side, the scale of this so-called IMET project is definitely not as simple as sending a DEVGRU team."

"They called off the plan because they found that their plan conflicted with another plan."

"Eight of the 16 DEVGRU members who took part in Operation White Rose survived. They were intercepted before withdrawing from South Oslo but eventually escaped."

"This war, which is likely to determine the direction of the US's subsequent Greater Middle East strategy, ended abruptly. The personnel involved in the operation, as the first eyewitnesses, were brought back after being stranded in Gru for 40 hours. However, only four of the eight people were brought back."

"After this action, the US began to adjust its Greater Middle East strategy."

"And the other side is a topic that cannot be discussed."

"I understand."

Chen Chen breathed a sigh of relief, secretly having a guess in his mind.

In fact, there is a sentence that he has heard countless times even in his previous life.

A half-dead xx is a good xx.

This incident is probably closely related to this sentence.

This is indeed a topic that cannot be discussed. I shouldn’t understand it, and there is no need to understand it.

Now we should focus on the mission itself. "So why didn't the Americans kill all eight surviving members right away? They are obviously capable of doing this, and it won't cost too much."

"This has to do with Donny Davis's status - I mean, his position in DEVGRU."

Xiaoyu paused and continued to explain:
"Donny Davis is one of the real core members of DEVGRU. Before Operation White Rose, he had already assisted JSOC in the reorganization of the FOG department, which is now known as the ISA department. In 2008, he had already retired from the front-line combat troops and was originally going to join the JSOC administrative sequence to do back-end work."

"But due to the special nature of the mission, JSOC decided to let a truly trustworthy person lead the team, so he personally selected the combat team members to carry out this mission."

"And, after the mission failed, based on the information he had, he quickly made the same judgment as you."

"That is, JSOC will not necessarily let him live - because he himself has done such a thing."

"So, he managed to evacuate some of his team members, and according to the report he submitted, those people 'defected'."

"But obviously, no matter which side it is, it can be seen that this is just a life-saving talisman for him."

"After returning to the United States, Davis entered the JSOC administrative sequence as planned and worked as an electronic intelligence analyst in ISA. Two years later, he was transferred to the human intelligence analysis group and resumed overseas missions."

"This is the direct reason why you met him."

"Just wait a moment."

Chen Chen raised his hand to interrupt Xiaoyu's words, and then asked:

"When you say FOG and ISA, do you mean the FOG and ISA that I understand? Do you mean the Field Operations Support Group and the Intelligence Support Operations Division?"

"Yes."

"understood."

Chen Chen leaned back on the sofa and said with some emotion:

"Now I can understand why he couldn't die. I'm curious, how could a member of such a sensitive organization be sent to the front line in the first place?"

Hearing his words, Xiaoyu showed an indescribable sarcastic smile on her face.

“This is also our doubt.”

"But one thing is certain, FOG does not have the ability to conduct frontline operations. The department began to have its own armed forces after FOG was reorganized into ISA by Donny Davis."

".You are both a referee and a player, right?"

"Yes."

“That’s really difficult.”

Chen Chen looked at the ceiling thoughtfully, and suddenly asked:
"What if it was you? If it was you, would you let this happen?"

".Is this even a question?"

Xiaoyu rolled his eyes and said:

"You know what's happening in Turkey. We are two extremes from them."

"This is actually one of the important reasons why you can sit opposite me now."

"understood."

Chen Chen nodded again, picked up the cup on the table and drank it all, then he said:
"I have basically understood the whole situation, and I also have a basic understanding of what the opponent is like."

"Now I have two questions."

"First, do I only need to take out Davis, or do I need to take out all eight?"

"Second, how can the United States guarantee that Davis doesn't know he's about to be killed?"

"You need to kill all eight of them, there's no doubt about that."

"As for the second question"

"The four people within the control will think they are going to kill the four people outside the control."

"No one can guarantee that there won't be problems. After all, Davis's practical experience may be better than that of the current head of JSOC."

“So, you have to be prepared.”

"You are likely to face an ambush. In the end, it will be you who survives, or they who survive."

"On your own."

"understood."

Chen Chen sighed and said with emotion:

"It's a narrow escape, it's always like this."

"But speaking of it, this time should be the most dangerous one."

"We are already at a disadvantage in terms of intelligence capabilities, and now we have to fight against a team that came from the ISA and has been active on the front lines for many years."

"I said, if it doesn't work, I can go to Iran and buy a few Conquerors and blow them up directly, okay?"

"Unfortunately, it's unlikely."

Xiaoyu shook his head and replied:
"This was originally the plan I proposed, but Davis is a very vigilant person."

"After the Syrian operation is over, there is absolutely no way he will go to other chaotic countries again."

"The location of this operation is most likely Eastern Europe, or even Western Europe."

"It would be better to leave them alone and not kill them if we fire a missile at a place like that."

"I was just kidding."

Chen Chen answered casually and said no more.

Xiaoyu looked at his face and also fell silent.

After a long while, she finally spoke:
"If you don't have confidence in this action, you can actually refuse."

"I have the authority to do so. I guarantee that even if you refuse this action, you can still live a peaceful life in Pubei."

"Even Dongfeng Group can continue to exist, but as you said, in some aspects, there will be a thicker ceiling."

"You know, there's no way I could say no to that."

Chen Chen interrupted Xiaoyu and then said:

"Dongfeng Group needs to develop, not just for myself. By the way, can you tell me about your future work arrangements, I mean, the general direction?"

"No."

Xiaoyu answered decisively, and then said:

"You should ask it another way."

"really."

Chen Chen thought for a moment, then asked:
"Will I see you again in the future?"

"can."

Xiaoyu nodded heavily and said word by word:

"Just survive, that's all."

"I can rest assured that."

Chen Chen showed a smile on his face, and Xiaoyu rolled his eyes and said:

"I don't know what you can be assured of."

"But, from my personal perspective, I want to tell you one thing."
