.

From Prince Air Force Base, reach the western border of Saudi Arabia. Along the way is a large desert.

Most Saudi citizens gather in cities. Due to the increase in domestic oil income, few herders go out to grazle.

It was dark at night. I couldn't see the scenery outside clearly, and I could only see the continuous black shadows.

Xiao Qiang sat down and fell asleep unknowingly.

He is under too much psychological pressure. There are so many things to consider every day. Many things cannot be told to others. He can only think about them repeatedly in his heart. It is too tiring.

When he woke up, he took over Austin and asked him to rest.

Originally, the most convenient and fastest way to travel a long distance was to take a plane. However, in order to keep it confidential, Xiao Qiang could only use this time-consuming and labor-intensive method.

Fortunately, the quality of the roads in Saudi Arabia is very good. The car drives very smoothly.

There weren't many cars along the way, so he could increase the accelerator and drive crazy.

When he saw the city halfway through, he just filled the gas station and passed by the city again. Even if he was eating, he bought Arabic pancakes in a roadside restaurant to satisfy his hunger.

By the next night, they finally arrived at the western city of Saudi Arabia, Jeddah.

As a desert country, except for the capital Riyadh, which is an oasis, the large desert areas in central Saudi Arabia are rarely popular. The population distribution is mainly in the Persian Gulf region to the east and the Red Sea edge areas in the west, which are all linearly distributed.

Jeddah is Saudi Arabia's largest port city on the Red Sea, an airport port, and the second largest city in the country, with a total of one million residents.

The reason why it has such a development scale is on the one hand because of its geographical location, and on the other hand, it is more importantly because it is seventy kilometers away, it is the famous Muslim holy land of Mecca!

Every year, there are millions of believers in the court, and there is still a rising trend year by year, which is likely to exceed tens of millions!

Jeddah is also the area where foreign embassies and foreigners are the most common. In the western Hezhi area, it is the only place where foreigners are allowed to live.

Xiao Qiang’s destination is not Jeddah.

At this increasingly sensitive moment, focusing on the Middle East, Saudi Arabia's eyes became more and more popular. Many territorial forces have magnified their eyes. Looking for abnormal traps, he dared not stay here for too long.

Arriving on a boat from Jeddah, crossing the Red Sea and continuing to head westward. This is where he is going - the Port of Said, Egypt.

Speaking of the four ancient civilizations, many people know Egypt.

But who knows that Egypt is now no longer the Egypt in history.

Since the establishment of the first unified slave empire in 3000 BC, Egypt has had a brilliant past. However, since the 10th century BC, Egypt has been repeatedly invaded by foreign races, and in the first century BC, it has become a province of the Roman Empire. It has begun to be eroded by ancient Roman culture. By more than 600 AD, Egypt was occupied by the Arabs. By the 9th century BC, Egypt's original culture was basically lost, and its residents had been assimilated by Arabs and became an orthodox Islamic country.

Therefore, now Egypt is actually an Arab country in Africa!

The official language in China is not Ancient Egypt, but Arabic. The vast majority of people in the country believe in Islam, and a few believe in Christianity.

Port Said is a harbor with many disasters.

As an important port on the verge of the Red Sea, it once became the largest coal-gathering port in the world due to the opening of the Suez Canal. However, in the 1950s, in the process of Egypt's struggle for independence, the Port of Said was bombarded by British and French fleets and bombarded by aircraft. By the time the British and French coalition forces landed, the Port of Said had been devastated.

In 607, the Arab countries led by Egypt launched the "Six-Day War" against Israel. They achieved major results in the early stage. However, with the support of the United States, Israel took advantage of the opportunity of the United Nations' ceasefire to recruit soldiers urgently, purchased a large number of weapons from the United States, and then adjusted its strategy to fight against small countries that are easy to deal with, such as Syria, and even occupied the Golan Heights, and held them to this day. Then it turned around. The armored brigade led by Sharon led the territory to raid the Egyptian rear supply, causing the Egyptian army to lose its armor.

After the Six-Day War, the Arab coalition not only did not defeat Israel, but instead occupied a large area of ​​territory by the other side.

Among them, Zhaide Port was also occupied by Israeli troops.

This was the last large-scale attack of the Arab army. After that, they finally realized that as long as Western countries continue to support Israel for one day, they would not be able to defeat each other. At the same time, from this time, they realized that the Soviet Union was not a reliable ally, betraying friends and conspiring to make the Arab countries completely lose trust in the Soviet Union.

Later, Israel withdrew from Port Said under international pressure. However, it continued to close the canal, and Port Said was in a slump.

It was not until 1976 that Egyptian President Sadat issued the "Open Door" policy, declaring that the Arab countries had a eased confrontation.

After more than ten years of development, the Port of Said has become an important cargo port in Egypt again.

Here, there are ships from Europe, America, Southeast Asia, and Japan. They refuel and water here and carry out ship repairs and maintenance. There are also a small number of cargo ships from here to ship Egyptian specialties such as Nile Delta blankets and other Egyptian products to other countries.

Xiao Qiang was at Port Said and transferred to a small port steamer and boarded a large oil tanker crowded in the middle of the fleet.

This is a 10,000-ton sea ship, with oil canopies on the flat surface.

But when you open the hatch, you can see that the bottom is not filled with oil, and the space is converted into huge rooms. The ventilation equipment is passed to the top, and the engine runs at high speed to transport fresh air into the cabin.

The cabin has a complete range of equipment, including a training ground, a personal lounge, a sauna, a billiard room, a chess and card room and other exercise and leisure facilities.

Xiao Qiang only took a look at the top of the boat and did not go down.

Under the leadership of the crew, he and Austin came to the main control room of the tanker.

Along the way, there were not many people on the ship, about thirty people. This is in line with the basic staffing configuration of an oil tanker. Modern oil tankers have a variety of automation equipment, and the cargo loaded on the ship is single, so there is no need for a large number of crew members.

Moreover, these crew members looked like Westerners. Seeing Austin with Xiao Qiang, they understood that this was their big boss, and they nodded politely to Xiao Qiang.

Xiao Qiang walked all the way and looked. He asked, "Are all these people reliable?"

Austin shrugged: "There are no absolutely reliable people in this world. They are all people I found from Europe and the United States. These people pursue fresh stimulation and are left-wing sympathizers. But people's thoughts will change. As for whether they are reliable in the future, no one can say."

"Yes!" Xiao Qiang sighed and ordered. "Then let it do this now. Just let them do this. Don't let them participate too much in our plan. If you find a suitable candidate in the future, you can use it separately."

"I understand, don't worry, whether this is done well or not. But it is related to our lives. I don't dare to be careless at all."

There were only a few people in the main control room. They were not dressed up by crew members. They looked like scholars or technicians.

There are many ground monitors here. From the surveillance screen, you can see and display the ground. It is the image of each corner in the cabin below.

It is very strange that all the bottom cabin personnel seen from the surveillance camera are Asians, and their temperament can be seen as Chinese!

Their dresses are different, some are wearing casual clothes, some are wearing shampooed old military uniforms without collars. The most unified part is that they all look tough and capable.

"How many people are there in total? Is the selection standard as I say?" Xiao Qiang looked over one shot at the other and looked very carefully.

These people are obviously veterans. Some people are wearing thick blue clothes of farmers, but their behavior and actions are still deeply imprinted with a uniform military mark.

Many of them are resting quietly in their rooms. Some people seem more bored and anxious, but they are very calm. Some people are looking at old newspapers and videotapes to pass the time.

Basically, there was no visit.

There are also many people on the training ground. They are doing physical recovery training, and the amount of training is not very large. After exercising for a while, they put on their clothes and came to the sauna room to do sauna bathing to recover their strength.

There were also more than ten people gathered in the billiard room to play billiards. They were the most active group of people, and they were talking and laughing at each other. They seemed to be very adaptable to this strange place.

Austin waited for him to see it before explaining: "It is handled according to your requirements. We recruit foreign labor personnel in the name of a Hong Kong company. In terms of personnel selection, we cannot ask the other party to have military experience, but we only require good health and strongness and competence in any job. This alone will eliminate most unqualified job seekers.

After that, we secretly asked some of the more outstanding candidates based on their resumes, whether they were willing to engage in international mercenaries, and hinted that this was a very dangerous profession and the possibility of death was very high. Most people hesitated, and only a very small number of people agreed. We sent those who retreated abroad and found jobs for them like normal labor companies.

We worked hard for a long time before we gathered this group of 400 candidates."

Xiao Qiang nodded with satisfaction.

He will also make the final selection of this group of people, and then serve as the backbone of Yangkovic and others.

Jankovic's ability and judgment should be relatively strong. If he stuffs some mediocre and inaction into his hands, he will definitely not be able to fight him! Not to mention mixing sand at that time, even the people who sent him to the land will also beat the dog with meat buns, and there will be no return.

He used various methods to make Yankovic and others go to Africa, not on a whim.

Although he himself did not plan to go to the place where malaria was everywhere, it was the center of his plan, second only to the rise of the mainland.

Looking at the Eastern European economy, Western countries that have struggled on the verge of collapse and have made good promises to them are all watching jokes. Anyway, for them, these fools deserve to believe that they will be really good to them!

A large number of local workers were unemployed, and a large number of local people were unable to survive. They flocked abroad.

In this way, it will be very convenient for Yankovic to replenish his personnel, and he will recover his energy within a year or two.

Therefore, if you want to control these people, you must send elite troops to make them the backbone of this small mercenary organization. Later, Xiao Qiang will use funds, supplies, weapons supply, and occupy a majority of Chinese personnel. As a means, he will overthrow Yankovic and become a simple administrative supervisor, and seize the absolute control of this mercenary group.

It is precisely because the matter is serious and directly related to the success of the African strategy in the future that he attached so much importance to it and tried his best to sneak into here alone and conduct the most important personnel selection.

Why do we need to find Westerners to do this? It is to hide Xiao Qiang's intentions.

Europe and the United States have a long history of mercenaries, and modern times also have many private armed forces under the guise of security companies. They will attract people and will not be too conspicuous.

Even if the person who fails, he will not be suspicious. Even if there are too many people, he will feel depressed and think that he will have less chance to make a lot of money.

"Then, the test will begin!" Xiao Qiang signaled to Austin.

Austin opened the sender button and said to the inner cabin in Chinese: "Everyone pays attention, everyone pays attention. Please gather in the conference room as fast as possible. Please gather in the conference room immediately!"

In the surveillance camera, with Austin's notification, it reached the various cabins. Those who were exercising and resting paused for a moment, then quickly rushed out of the cabin and rushed towards the conference room in the center.

This instruction, similar to an emergency assembly, clearly shows the military qualities of these personnel. After years of retirement, there are still some points left.

Xiao Qiang saw through the surveillance camera that the older he was, the slower he was. After all, they had left the army for too long. Many of their military skills had deteriorated. However, those young veterans had flexible movements and soon rushed to the conference room.

However, without further instructions, most of them stood in the open space and did not find a seat to sit down.

There were only thirty or forty people, and when they came in, they found a seat and sat down.

No further instructions were heard. Those who stood waiting for instructions gradually understood and found a chair and sat down.

"How is it?" Austin asked, turning off the sender.

Xiao Qiang pointed to the first people who sat down and said, "These people have all been recorded. They have strong ability to make decisions independently. If they are excluded from being free and casual elements, then they may become supervisors at all levels in this group."

Austin gave instructions to the staff, one of the staff members operated the video and went backwards, entered their name into the computer, and called out their past information.

There is a table on the computer, next to each name. There are many spaces used to rate their tests.

According to Xiao Qiang's instructions, the first group of people sitting down were marked in red as the key targets. Then, according to the order of sitting down and the directions they chose, the staff gave scores respectively according to a technical manual.

When everyone sat down, the lights in the conference room went out.

A beam of light is projected from behind and broadcasted to a large screen on the front of the conference room.

"This is our latest LCD projector. How about it? Is the quality better? The smoothness and particles of the picture are much smaller, right?" Austin said with great excellence. Xiao Qiang is not at home all day long. He manages the specific affairs of the company and every achievement he has made him proud.

Xiao Qiang looked at it: "The fluency does not change much, but the particles are much smaller. Basically, I can't see it anymore. The key is how the cost is?"

"That's it!" Austin was more excited. "Our cost is at least 30% lower than other companies! But I did not reduce the price, but expanded the production line and prepared to enter Southeast Asia after the Japanese market is saturated!"

The two of them discussed the company's affairs here, but it was a different feeling to apply for the job in the conference room.

The scenes of war scenes are played on the screen, but this is not the war documentary that we usually see, but the film and television records after the war. The broken limbs, internal organs, crying crowds, and smoke houses all expose the war to everyone.

There is no sound in the film and television screens, like a silent movie. But it is precisely this silence that further highlights the great trauma brought to people by war.

The soldiers' expressions of their eyes closed, released in close-up shots, and the tragic situation of their bones stretching out from their limbs, are all creepy, and their psychological endurance is slightly fragile, and they cannot face it.

The documentary was first played for a while, and someone vomited it out.

Through low-light anti-night vision equipment, everyone's expressions clearly appeared on the surveillance camera. Those who vomited, trembled, and closed their eyes were recorded by the staff and scored on the computer. These people, if they were not technical troops or had other specialties, were basically eliminated.

After the documentary was finished, the lights in the cabin were not turned on, and in the dark conference room, I couldn't see my fingers.

After a few minutes of silence, the sound of fierce shooting sounded from all directions, and the sound of grenade explosions. There seemed to be someone shouting for help in Chinese, and there were also voices shouting "Mom" shrillly!

The infrared thermal video camera, the image emitted by the gunshot sounded, and the conference room was in chaos.

Some people in the land wanted to escape, but they collided with the people around them, either tripping over the chair, or they were huddled in the chair, motionless!

The gunshot lasted only half a minute. This was mainly because Xiao Qiang was afraid that it would cause real casualties for too long.

But even so, when the lights turned on and the doctor went in, as many as 70 or 80 people were hit and injured, and two of them were seriously injured.

Everyone was very excited, and the medical staff were shouting and cursing around the coming in, and someone was preparing to take action.

It’s no wonder that after just after the terrifying tragic situation of the war, many people suddenly got into trouble when they were in a nervous state.

Xiao Qiang ignored them. The treatment that should be treated, the compensation that should be compensated. No matter what reason they have, they must remain calm as mercenaries. Otherwise, they will die on the battlefield sooner or later.

Those who quickly gathered with the people around them and formed a small circle to protect themselves: those who retreated to the wall: those who grabbed the chairs as weapons, but did not wave them randomly, got high scores. This proved that they would not panic when encountering night attacks. As for whether they were able to deal with them properly, it was not the main basis. Because if they chose, they would conduct further training.

The chaos this time lasted for a long time. Until dinner time, there were still people cursing.

That night, two emergency meetings were held.

This is not a test of their quality, but just to prevent them from resting well and becoming more nervous.

The next morning, everyone gathered in the conference room again.

He suffered consecutive tragic documentaries, gunfire in the dark, and other stimulations. He gathered two emergency meetings at night, which made most of the candidates not sleep well. In addition, he was excited and showed a state of sluggishness.

This time, they are no longer the only ones in the conference room.

A Western man with white hair was wearing a white coat and stood on the podium. He looked at him with silver silk head, and his demeanor was very similar to an outstanding scientist.

However, he was not a scientist, but Austin dressed up with a wig.

This is just relying on his deceptive image to increase persuasion.

Austin was very eloquent. He spread the history of scientific and technological development to the fullest. Various technological achievements were also shown on the curtain behind him, in line with his statement.

What are the space shuttles, genetic engineering, electronic computers, and various advanced instruments, and they all speak them out from his mouth. The candidates below were stunned and could hear the gods.

Finally, an instrument appeared on Pingm.

Austin's commentary said: "With the development of modern science and technology, people have found that when people lie, their emotions will change. These changes will be manifested through pulse, breathing, heartbeat, etc. This instrument has developed to the third generation. Its official scientific name is the electronic multispectral recorder. However, because it has been used for investigation and solving cases many times, and the success rate is as high as 99%, so everyone usually calls it a lie detector!"

The people below suddenly became nervous.

Austin has said so much, but who doesn’t understand that this is a lie detection test!

The term for lie detectors. There are so many people who have heard of it! Many movies, novels, and newspapers are all bragging about it, which makes people feel mysterious and is extremely superstitious about its power. Ninety-nine percent, no one thinks Austin is bragging!

Instead of conducting the test immediately, Austin picked someone from the crowd and asked them to see the live demonstration of the instrument.

He first asked the man to consult some of the candidates present and wrote some answers to the questions. Then he handed over the records of these questions to Austin, but sealed the answers in public. Austin looked at these questions and prepared a list of questions on the spot. Then, he signaled everyone on the scene to quiet down.

I saw the lie detector work with my own eyes, and everyone held their breath, wanting to see if it was as magical as the legendary one.

Austin connected many wires to the tester, and the wires were connected to a lie detector. And its data end was input into the computer.

Everything was ready. Austin chatted about a few family matters to relax the man. After that, he began to ask questions one by one according to the question list in a gentle tone.

Twenty minutes after the question was over, he asked the tester for a break, and after a few minutes, he asked the question again.

When the third question ended, the applicants were a little impatient to wait. Austin began to publish his test results - all the results he did not know were not exactly the same as the answers sealed in the box, but not judged, they were exactly the same and there was no error!

Now, everyone in the land was in sensation.

The lie detector is too accurate!

Among the candidates, several people looked a little panicked, and Xiao Qiang immediately asked the staff to record it.

Austin's local training test was actually a double act, and the tester was a supporter!

On that holder, the sensing line connected was not actually sent to the lie detector. Instead, it was connected to Austin's headset. He used the vibration rules of his pulse to remind Austin whether he was telling the truth or the lies.

Therefore, Austin can tell the answer so accurately.

Afterwards, taking advantage of the good psychological effects achieved by the test, Austin began to arrange candidates to group ten people, enter each test room, and participate in the test. The real psychological tester sitting there is.

Every time the tester answers a question, the psychological tester will pay attention to the psychological curve and whether there are fluctuations. Then, according to the other party's answer, compare the scale manual to score.

Lie detection, after all, is just a gimmick.

Because Xiao Qiang knew that the correctness of the lie detector was questionable, especially for some special people who had been trained to take lies as the truth, the effect of the lie detector was greatly reduced.

What he hopes is to use this method to shock those guys who intend to lie and let them tell the truth!

This requires that the lie detector show is absolutely successful, so he let Austin perform a double act with others, which immediately shocked everyone!

This is also done to cooperate with the subsequent psychological tests.

All test questions are professional-level, some test their personality characteristics, some test their stress resistance, some test whether they have a team spirit, and so on.

It can be said that the selection of personnel in Xiao Qiangdi is almost equivalent to the selection of agents in FBI!

He quietly looked at a test data at hand. There was a detailed analysis of technical terms. He noticed one of the passages: "...The tester had a strong emotional expression for the words "nationality", "strong".... Based on other psychological test questions, the answers determined that the person had a strong nationalist tendency..."
Chapter completed!
