_2 “Iron Madonna, I really don’t know where their squad that’s good at desert climate warfare is since that squad seems to have split up and acted separately.
Not long ago, I heard from another mercenary group that they had encountered two people from Iron Madonna in Aleppo.
Strangely, speaking of Iron Madonna, I don’t know what they’ve been up to recently; they’ve just vanished.”
Gao Yang exhaled deeply and said, “So, you’re saying you don’t have any information on Iron Madonna either.
Do you think the people from Iron Madonna might be with Badadi?”
“Hmm, I really don’t know that, but I can also tell you this, there might be an Iron Wall Mercenary Corps with Badadi, only might be, I haven’t gotten any definite news on that.”
Gao Yang took Badadi’s intelligence very seriously.
Hearing Justin offer a new possibility, Gao Yang immediately said, “Iron Wall Mercenary Corps?
I’ve never heard that name before, give me the details.”
Justin sighed and said, “Buddy, according to my habit, I don’t talk about information that isn’t solid and unconfirmed because being unconfirmed means there might be mistakes.
And if there are mistakes, it could affect my reputation, but more importantly, incorrect information would mean no money for me.
However, since we’re good friends, and you’re a nice customer, and you just performed quite impressively, I’m willing to disclose some free but unconfirmed information to you.
So, if anything goes wrong, don’t blame me, agreed?”
Gao Yang laughed and replied, “Enough with the chatter, you know my situation, and you also know that what I need most urgently is information, so go ahead and tell me what’s going on.”
“Alright, here’s the thing.
Although I don’t have any concrete evidence, it’s very likely that the Iron Wall Mercenary Corps is operating with Badadi because, last year, many mercenary groups were hired by certain countries to train rebels for those countries that wanted the doctor out of office.
And Iron Wall Mercenary Corps, they likely have been training people for IS because the style of the Iron Wall Mercenary Corps is quite obvious, and the soldiers of IS have exhibited characteristics of the Iron Wall Mercenary Corps, which is one of my basis for this judgment.
Also, there’s a more direct, yet equally unverifiable piece of evidence.
This year, at a Syria rebel coalition meeting, the Iron Wall Mercenary Corps appeared as bodyguards during a meeting between the leaders of IS and other organizations.
I think, at that rebel coalition meeting, it must have been Badadi himself in attendance.
Therefore, it’s possible that Iron Wall Mercenary Corps might be by Badadi’s side.”
Gao Yang thought for a moment and said, “Without direct evidence, it’s indeed not rigorous enough, but I feel the Iron Wall Mercenary Corps could be treated as a significant feature in searching for Badadi.
It’s worth a try.
I haven’t heard of the Iron Wall Mercenary Corps before, do you have detailed information on them?”
“Oh, I have that, might be a bit outdated but there shouldn’t be too many differences.
At least, the core figures of Iron Wall won’t be wrong.
You know, any mercenary group might rapidly expand during battle, just like you guys, haven’t you also gained a lot of members?”
Gao Yang gave a smile and said, “That’s true, then give me the information you know.
Also, don’t forget to keep looking for Iron Madonna’s whereabouts.
Buddy, there’s a lot of money here that I just can’t spend, don’t you want to take some out of my pocket?”
“Damn, the Iron Madonna is not a mercenary group that usually likes to hide, but recently I don’t know what’s happened, it seems the main force of Iron Madonna has gone into hiding.
I only know they’re in Ukraine, but I have no clue what they’re doing.
I think they must be exercising communication control, because the guys who used to sell me information are all unreachable.
There’s only one possibility: Iron Madonna is preparing for a major operation, and it’s right in Ukraine!”
Gao Yang laughed, “Ukraine?
What big operation could there be in Ukraine?”
“Pal, what else could it be?
That godforsaken place, Ukraine—Russia and America have always been wrestling there.
If something goes wrong, Iron Madonna could be using American money to stir up trouble in Ukraine.
Trust me, pal, any major event in Ukraine is no accident, and I believe it won’t be long now.”
Gao Yang thought for a moment and responded, “That’s true, Angel also went to Ukraine, and now there’s no word from them, I can’t get in touch with them.
Perhaps Ukraine really is brewing a storm, but it doesn’t matter, it’s none of my business anyway.”
Justin chuckled loudly and said, “It may not concern you, but it certainly concerns me.
The moment Ukraine descends into chaos is when I strike it rich, pal, don’t say I didn’t look out for you.
Judging by the current situation, Ukraine is set for turmoil.
Band together with your business friends and get ready to make a fortune.
Listen, if there’s a good deal or an opportunity, don’t forget to include me, true wealth comes from collaboration.”
Gao Yang smiled and said, “Once Ukraine is in chaos, arms dealers will be rejoicing.
That place is not like Syria.
Alright, because I’m really short on cash right now, warfare is burning through money, it’s all outgoing and no incoming for me.
If Ukraine falls into turmoil and there’s a chance to collaborate, I will look for you, maybe we really can make big money.”
Justin lowered his voice and continued, “We’ll definitely make money, I’m not joking.
Hurry and find those friends of yours who do big business, especially the shady ones.
Seizing the opportunity means you can make preparations in advance.
By being prepared, you have a greater chance than others, so get moving.
Don’t just focus on fighting.
I’ll give you a hint; this crisis in Ukraine is incomparable to the past, not just minor skirmishes.
Once there’s a move, there will be big changes.
The bolder you are, the greater the benefits you can reap!”
Gao Yang scratched his head and said, “I like the sound of making big money, but for a country on the verge of chaos, where can we profit from?
Pal, Ukraine does have some good stuff in their armories.
Right now, the only thing I can think of is maybe looting something from Ukraine’s equipment stores.
What else could there be?”
Jacklan snorted coldly and whispered, “Weapons?
Pal, what business can’t make money?
Ukrainian women are quite popular in Western Europe, and then there’s organ trafficking.
Once the fighting starts, all these are business, all money.
As long as you prepare in advance, as long as you have connections and the guts, you can make money from anything!”
Gao Yang sneered and said, “The kind of business you’re talking about, let’s forget it, it’s asking for karma.”
Justin chuckled and replied, “Yes, not everyone can handle those businesses.
You’re a mercenary, but you’re not ruthless enough.
Only those completely devoid of humanity can manage them.
But, I wasn’t planning on getting you involved in that.
Since you’re a mercenary, you can take on mercenary tasks.
Ukraine, what kind of place is it?
It’s poor right now, but it’s got foundations.
All sorts of technical blueprints and designs, once exchanged, that’s money.”
Talking excitedly and catching his breath, Justin continued, “Once Ukraine ‘changes color’ and various powers emerge to fight for control, pick someone you think can ultimately win and buy some land, or a factory.
Hey, I need not explain further, right?
Whatever you think has potential in the whole country, you can get your hands on it, then just wait for the value to rise after things calm down.
Pal, I know you’ve got some powerful friends; not to mention anything else, if Grand Ivan makes a move, just by following him and taking what falls from the table, you can become wealthy.
And when that happens, don’t forget about your brother here.”
Gao Yang cheerfully said, “That sounds feasible, quite good indeed.
Alright, we’ll definitely collaborate if there’s an opportunity.”
Justin laughed heartily and added, “I’m just trying to broaden your horizons, there are so many more businesses out there waiting for you to discover.
Alright, that’s all I’ll say, pal.
You’re a smart guy, you know what you can talk about and what you can’t.
Just let our conversation rot in your stomach, don’t trouble yourself.
I’ll send Iron Wall’s information to Little Donnie straight away, we’ll get in touch later.
Goodbye.”
