Snow Leopard: Building the Strongest Elite Group through Robbery

Chapter 1176 Catching One Family and Exploiting Them Hard

Cooperate with sheep.

The empire has a say.

Of course, while cooperating with the sheep, there was still a wolf present, but the problem was that by then, that wolf had little say in the matter.

"I have always believed that we are not suitable to cooperate with Kyoto because their military strength is too great, and the military quality of Berlin is also beyond our reach. We may gain some short-term benefits by cooperating with them, but I estimate that we will suffer much in the future when it comes to the division of benefits."

Several people looked at Marsil with mocking eyes.

The Secretary of State looks down on people like that.

This matter had been discussed more than once or twice in meetings, but he hadn't said a word. Now that this situation has arisen, he's jumped in.

"General Marsil, to paraphrase a saying from the mountain town, what's the difference between what you're doing and being a Monday morning quarterback?"

With just one sentence, Marcel was rendered speechless.

He also harbored resentment, and he intended to speak out, but in that situation, what good would it do? Who would listen to him anyway?

"Alright." The Defense Minister coughed. He didn't want this meeting to become a pointless argument. He tapped the table and looked at the people in front of him. "Now is not the time to argue about past mistakes, but the time to discuss how we should explain ourselves to the people."

Marcel remained silent. He had nothing to say. What else could he explain? No matter how he explained it, an assassination attempt against the Empire had already begun in Kyoto.

What Marcel was unaware of was that it wasn't just the assassination attempt against their people in Kyoto that had begun; an even larger conspiracy was gradually taking shape.

This massive conspiracy, along with Zhou Weiguo's sudden appearance in Kowloon, completely formed a closed loop.

Hasegawa Kiyoshi looked at the travel-worn Zhou Weiguo in front of him. He didn't even bother to offer him a cigarette, but instead sighed and looked up at the white ceiling. "I have a feeling that with your arrival, this conspiracy to destroy the Empire and Washington will truly begin."

Zhou Weiguo took off his scarf; it was very cold, and wearing it would keep him a little warmer.

Without needing Hasegawa Kiyoshi's hospitality, Zhou Weiguo went to the fireplace himself, calmly poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, and said, "Don't look so half-dead."

Hasegawa Kiyoshi chuckled twice; "Since you're planning to trick me, aren't you going to let me vent my frustrations?"

It's about venting.

Zhou Weiguo raised his hand; "Do as you please. Whether you vent or not, you still have to do what you're supposed to do."

Why is he still sighing and complaining? If his pitiful state could make Zhou Weiguo let him off the hook, he would naturally be happy to do so. But this guy clearly has no such intention. Since that's the case, why is he still pretending?

Sitting up straight, wiping his face with his hand, Hasegawa Kiyoshi looked at Zhou Weiguo with a death-defying expression and asked, "Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

Zhou Weiguo, a cigarette dangling from his lips, walked up to Hasegawa Kiyoshi. He placed his hands on the edge of the large table and leaned down. Hasegawa Kiyoshi pushed him away. "Just talk. Don't act like that. It makes people think I'm really afraid of you. You haven't really won yet, so what are you doing looking down on me like that?"

Zhou Weiguo chuckled and sat back down in the chair in front of the stove, saying, "I didn't mean that. It's just that, as you know, because of the sand table, it's not easy for us in the army to see clearly what's going on if I don't do it this way."

Hasegawa Kiyoshi didn't believe a word of this. He knew better than anyone what this attitude meant.

“Kyoto can’t tolerate your troublemaking anymore, so you’ve come here. Tell me, let me hear your plans first.”

After taking a puff of his cigarette, Zhou Weiguo said, "Here's what I'm thinking: after I released the information this time, there was strong opposition in Kyoto, but I don't think that's enough. It doesn't demonstrate the army's loyalty to His Majesty."

He stayed there for two more days before leaving, and the army didn't say a word about it. Although some people were involved in the robbery, they were a minority, and the army was keeping a close watch on him, so it was completely unacceptable.

The army is probably just like that; they're not exactly ambitious.

"Get to the point." Stop with the rambling; he just wants to hear Zhou Weiguo's real plans.

Zhou Weiguo sat up straight and said, "The army gave up this opportunity to perform in front of His Majesty, so your navy must pick it up."

At this point, Zhou Weiguo sneered twice; "There are merchant ships between Kowloon and Fei Li Ping, and there are even more American merchant ships, carrying a lot of cargo and commerce. You can use your submarine here to sink them."

"Baka!" Hasegawa Kiyoshi slammed his hand on the table and glared at Zhou Weiguo. "You son of a bitch, do you want me dead?"

Is this something you can do? Using submarines, what are you trying to do? Who do you want to sink?

This matter will definitely not be a small thing; it will be a major event. It would be strange if the Prime Minister's Office didn't drag itself out as a scapegoat.

He didn't care about these false reputations, but the problem was that Zhou Weiguo was trying to pin him to the ground and have him killed. He couldn't accept that. How could anyone treat someone like that? Did this bastard have no sense of public morality at all?

After all, I've worked with him so many times, and I thought we were old acquaintances. I never expected that this bastard would still be so ruthless and cruel when he tried to harm me.

From the moment he starts, he's clearly prepared to kill himself. You can tell if this guy is even human.

Hasegawa Kiyoshi grew angrier as he spoke, and finally, when he stood in front of Zhou Weiguo, he was spitting everywhere; "You're worse than an animal!"

Zhou Weiguo wasn't angry and waited until he finished venting his frustrations. Only then did he wipe the spittle from his face and say, "Don't get so worked up."

Of course I'm excited!

Hasegawa scoffed. "Just a few days ago, I was telling Xiao Ya that you shouldn't ask Watson for any more technology. I was thinking of you. But you son of a bitch, you come back and stab me in the back. Do you want to kill me with that knife?"

Zhou Weiguo nodded, gesturing for him to sit down. Then, he took out a cigarette from his pocket and offered it to him, saying, "How could I possibly let someone like you, a general who will be instrumental in the rise of our mountain city's navy, slip through my fingers?"

This flattery immediately shut up Hasegawa Kiyoshi. He sat down next to him, lit a cigarette, and looked at Zhou Weiguo's face.

He couldn't tell that this guy was deceiving him, so after thinking for a moment, he asked, "Then... what are you really thinking?"
