Chapter 792: The Enemy’s Enemy

“Long time no see, my friend.” The hearty voice came through over the phone.

The voice undoubtedly belonged to Loki, one of the important figures within B City Consortium.

A hand gesture was given to the maids beside him, motioning for them to leave. Jiang Chen put some clothes over his body. After sitting up on the sofa, he smiled and replied.

“Indeed long time no see. What’s the matter?”

“I heard you and Rothschild’s honeymoon is over?” Loki asked with uncertainty in his tone.

“Not that extreme, but indeed unpleasant.”

With a confirmation from Jiang Chen, Loki’s smile turned even brighter.

Of course, in order not to be mistaken for gloating, he tried very hard to restrain the smile from reaching his speech as he lowered his voice and said.

“Oh, God, it’s not fun to be remembered by the Rothschild’s family. But what I didn’t understand was… Didn’t they help you in Congress some time ago? Xin developing civil nuclear technology; to be honest, many people voted in favor of the interference option.”

“The exchange of interests, nothing more… I am also very curious to ask what these questions mean for B City Consortium?” Jiang Chen asked back.

It seemed that he had heard Jiang Chen’s displeasure. Loki smiled and quickly explained.

“My apologies, I may have been somewhat direct. But you have to believe me. We don’t have any malicious intentions. We might as well say … we’re somewhat happy.”

“You’re glad to see Rothschild and I go against each other?” Jiang Chen crossed his legs and sunk into the sofa, and said with a casual tone, “or rather, add the Freemasonry into it too?”

“No, no, you may have misunderstood what I meant.” Loki shook his head and paused. Then he threw out a question. “How much does Mr. Jiang know about the UA?”

“Other than the power being divided into three, I don’t know much about it.” Jiang Chen laughed.

The Capitol and Wall Streets were divided.

“What about Wall Street?”

“A bunch of greedy bankers and investors.”

“Hahaha, Mr. Jiang’s opinion is really unique. But forgive me; your opinion is still somewhat amateur.” Loki did not mind Jiang Chen used the adjective “greedy” and laughed.

Jiang Chen also smiled without responding, waiting for Loki to continue.

While Loki had his laugh, he took a sip of water, soothed his throat, and changed into a serious tone.

“The Capitol has two owners. Wall Street also has two owners.”

“Who are they?”

“Jewish Consortium and Protestant Consortium – known as WASP.”

Jiang Chen was silent for two seconds and said in a joking tone.

“I thought the UA was Jewish’s garden.”

“That is a prejudice. Jewish Consortium is made up of Goldman Sachs, Lehman Brothers, and other investment banks. WASP side is comprised of Morgan Stanley and First Boston. Obama was their people, and Hillary is ours. Whether it is financial or political, we are at best head-to-head against them.”

This sentence had already proved Loki’s position. Jiang Chen could feel the friendliness in his tone.

Loki’s next sentence made his intention even more clear.

“It’s not easy to face the Freemasonry alone. Do you want to join forces?”

“How do we work together?” Jiang Chen asked.

“When confronting a Jewish organization that stretches its hands everywhere, we stand together. Whether it is to attack or retreat, we stand together both politically and economically!” Perhaps he felt Jiang Chen’s concerns. Loki added, “Of course, the Covenant itself is not bidding. The only requirement is that against the Freemasonry conspiracies, our coalition can unite!”

The room was quiet, and the silent atmosphere lasted for a long time.

Loki waited quietly for Jiang Chen’s reply. He knew it took time to think but he would agree eventually.

Because, Jiang Chen had no reason to reject.

However, the facts were indeed true. Jiang Chen seriously thought about it for a long time, and he really could not think of the reasons to disagree with this proposal. Future Group appeared strong on the surface, whether he thought himself or in the eyes of other, but the lack of allies in international affairs had always been the Achilles heel of Future Group.

Working together with WASP would undoubtedly make up for this shortfall.

As to whether the relations with Jewish Consortium such as Rothschild would continue to deteriorate, Jiang Chen was no longer concerned. Both sides were about to fight in his own garden, why bother saving faces?

“… One more friend is always good.” After making up his mind, Jiang Chen responded.

A smile bloomed on Loki’s face.

“Great. I’m very happy that we have a strong ally on the other side of the Pacific!”

…

Strictly speaking, the relationship between WASP and Future Group was not harmonious. The business expansion of Future Group had touched the interest of many people. But against a common enemy, the United States and the Soviet Union, which have very different ideologies, could stand on one front. What is absolutely impossible in this world?

Compared with Future Group, Protestants obviously disdained the Jews more.

If they could get rid of the Freemasonry in UA and regain control of the Fed and Wall Street from the grasps of the Jews, WASP would benefit far more than Future Group.

The Covenant didn’t not have any paper documents; it was only a verbal commitment.

Because no laws and regulations could possibly provide legal protection to this documentation.

Early the next morning, Jiang Chen, accompanied by Santos, personally traveled to the Suriga region, the northernmost point of MLL Island, to inspect the military deployment on the border of Moro.

Two brigades of artillery, two divisions of motorized infantry and an armored battalion.

As far as the military personnel was concerned, such a deployment was sufficient, but Jiang Chen didn’t know what to say about the equipment. Still using the T-72 tank as the main armored tank, Jiang Chen was very skeptical on how many seconds they could last in front of the M1A1.

Without the deterrence of Celestial Trade, Jiang Chen even suspected that if the current Country F army have pushed to the border, the forces on MLL Island would probably have to go back to fighting a guerrilla warfare again.

However, since Jiang Chen was there, so he naturally would not allow this to happen.

After finishing the border inspection, he immediately returned to Xin by plane and started to provide military assistance to Moro.

A large number of military supplies were transported by ship to Port D. Beginning with light weapons, they began to equip the military force. It was worth mentioning that B City Consortium has extended a helping hand on this matter. Raytheon sold 30 M1A1 main battle tanks to Celestial Trading at a price of four million US Dollar. The tanks were sent to Moro, replacing the old T-72 in the armored battalion.

The dark cloud named war lingered over MLL Island. In the eyes of the public, it was a clash between human rights and sovereignty. But only the top officials on the front line knew that this was not for the sake of the people from the very beginning.

The Freemasonry wanted to kick Future Group out of MLL and indirectly control Future Group’s industry power through monopoly of resources. Future Group would never give up the resources of MLL Island, nor would it make concessions on the Moro country issue!
