Chapter 237 Revenge Arrives As Scheduled
The next morning, Li Changheng used the public phone to call old Corleone again.
With a strong memory, after listening to the members of the Cordis family, the first thought in his mind was who to send to Mexico to collect intelligence.
Moreover, once Gabriel's eldest brother Martin Curtis and cousin Victor Snape were raided.
How to ensure that the police in Juarez will not jump out to make trouble.
No one cares if you kill Du Xiao, but if you kill the police, it will be a big trouble.
And this trouble is not only on the Mexican side, but more on the American side.
After all, as long as a politician with a normal mind will not have anything to do with a benefactor who kills law enforcement officers.
It seems that the only way is to bribe the head of the police in Juárez, and by the way, make some troubles in the city to attract the police to other things.
Thanks to the old Corleone who offered to help find Martin Cordis and Victor Snape to check the whereabouts of Corleone.
Li Changheng hung up the phone, but he didn't put all the sources of information on the old man.
But how to collect information is a difficult problem.
And he instinctively ruled out Lao Tu and Bonaparte first.
After all, it wasn't long after the two of them retired, and it was only a week since they brought money to New York to build an intelligence network.
After much deliberation, the first thought was the underground black market, the second was Bond's intelligence agency, and then C1A and FB1.
But FB1 was quickly ruled out by him.
If you want to develop stably in the United States in the future, it is best not to have too much connection with FB1 at this time.
When Uncle Hoover is gone, those upper echelons in the United States will definitely dismantle the current FB1.
There are internal and external disturbances in an intelligence agency, and God knows that the sponsor will be implicated.
And if Hoover noticed it, it would definitely not be a good thing for him.
Then C1A and England's intelligence agencies were also ruled out by him.
Getting involved with them, I don't know how many bad things are waiting for me in the future.
They brought Lao Tu and Bonaparte, and when they heard that Li Changheng wanted to collect information in the underground world.
One reported the name of the Continental Hotel, and the other said the name of the US military intelligence department.
Li Changheng looked at Lao Tu and Bonaparte in surprise. It seemed that the two had already disagreed on the issue of intelligence collection, or they had already determined their respective development directions.
After thinking about it for a while, he decided to use the Continental Hotel first. After all, this killer organization wanted money.
And if he doesn't show up, will he be targeted for a while.
That night, Lao Tu came back with 600,000 US dollars, "Boss, the Continental Hotel received 400,000 US dollars, and the task deadline is one month.
Martin Cordis and Victor Snape each offered $100,000, and Gabriel's uncle Carlos Cordis offered $200,000. "
Li Changheng didn't care about money, but the mission time of one month was surprising.
You must know that the city of Juarez is just across the river from the United States. For a month, people feel that the intelligence capabilities of the Continental Hotel are too weak.
Soon he shook his head helplessly. This is not the age of the Internet. Every call has to be made by an operator. It is normal that intelligence collection takes a long time.
The next day, Li Changheng, who needed to wait for the news, felt bored, and bought a small well-equipped gun workshop for US$170,000 through the people of UBS in New York.
Then I hid in the workshop and began to study the M416 outline drawings I drew at will when I was in contact with the machinery when I was learning to maintain the P51 Mustang fighter jet at the Arizona Air Patrol Airport.
To put it bluntly, this gun, which will be very famous in the future, is the HK gun manufacturer, in order to cater to the preferences, habits and requirements of the American people for M series guns.
Using M4 and M16 as prototypes, and in order to solve the problem of jamming, the internal gun uses G36, plus an upgraded version of M4 to solve the clip failure rate.
M4 and G36 have not yet appeared at this time, but the prototypes of the guns are AR15/M16 and G3 assault rifles.
Therefore, Li Changheng bought G3 and AK, bought AR15, M16, and made modular and accessory rails to copy M416 by himself.
It's a pity that the ideal is full, but the reality is very skinny.
When he feels that he has thoroughly researched the three types of guns, he starts to think about combining them.
But I found that making guns is really not that easy.
Fortunately, the only advantage of conducting experiments in New York is that he can buy any machine for making parts if he wants.
Therefore, after the mesh barrel radiator, the grip, the guide rail for the flashlight, the silencer, the 2x scope and other accessories were produced, they were unanimously affirmed by Banks and Blade.
Firearms of this era have no concept of a vertical grip at all.
When shooting with the M16, the left hand has to press the clip or the loading part of the clip, which often causes the clip to loosen.
And when you hold the heat dissipation part of the barrel, you will be burned if you are not careful.
It was not so easy to get the M416 out, but the M16's long and ugly radiator was changed to a shorter and more effective mesh radiator.
It is still possible to install the purchased silencer, 2x scope, and modify the more expensive steel clip.
When the gun was formed, Li Changheng looked more and more like the M4A1 except for the lack of a tactical buttstock with a buffer function.
He certainly couldn't make the tactical gun stock by himself. Although he knew the general principle, he didn't want to be copied by the military-industrial complex in the United States.
I can only learn a little bit by myself, slowly create it, and then improve it.
The prototype gun is out, and the rest is the live ammunition shooting test.
Attaching the gun to special shooting equipment, the gun jammed after only 11 rounds were fired the first time.
Then he kept looking for problems and modifying it, until he completely fell into a state of madness and had to compete with the gun he made.
Ten days had passed, until Annie, who was waiting in London, called him and reminded him that Christmas would be three days away, and he packed all the parts in several huge boxes depressedly.
Leave the gun workshop and send it to the UBS vault.
Back at the hotel, he took a comfortable bath, ate lunch, and listened to Lao Tu's report on the assassination of the Kodis family by the Continental Hotel, which hadn't even started yet.
I can't help scolding trash in my heart.
Before leaving New York to fly back to London, I called Barney to ask about recruiting seals and green berets.
Hearing that only 17 people have been found for the time being, Li Changheng thought about it and added Barney and other six people, but it was not enough, so he asked about Kong Xunji.
I was relieved to learn that these people had all left Arizona yesterday and went back to their respective homes for Christmas.
But what Li Changheng and no one expected was that on the second day after Christmas, all seven of the eight members of the air patrol base returned, except Lieutenant Colonel Edmund, who unexpectedly did not return to the team on time.
Moreover, an FB1 agent in Texas and his family were accidentally involved in a car accident while driving to their parents' house for Christmas.
A supervisor at Alto Air Force Base in Phoenix lost his entire family to a vacation cabin in the mountains.
A senior communications officer was robbed and stabbed to death in Phoenix City.
Only Hudson, the director of FB1 Texas, returned to FB1 for reinstatement, and as the person in charge of cracking down on flour, his family members were not exposed and nothing happened.
