Chapter 2707: Yemen mission

Lin Rui and Yelena wandered around in St. Petersburg, changed their outfits, and came to a restaurant in St. Petersburg with bright clothes. He made an appointment here in advance and booked a place. This is a very contemporary restaurant with the Chinese name "沙皇". Built in 1750, it was a restaurant that existed during the czarist period, and it is said that the czar used to dine here. Its pillars, ceilings, displays, exhibits, etc. are almost all left over from the Tsarist period. Every piece of floor tiles here are antiques and extremely valuable. Portraits of 11 emperors from the czarist period hang in the dining room.
The natural giant beetle caviar here, rye toast and sour cream, and local vodka, this is a Russian characteristic, delicious and high nutritional value, of course, the price is quite expensive, Lin Rui's appointment is Crowe Sof. He was wearing casual clothes today, and he was a little nervous sitting there.
"Hello, old friend." Lin Rui walked over and shook his hand.
"Rick, I just heard that you arrived in Russia today. I didn't expect to meet so soon." Krosov looked at Lin Rui.
"It seems that you are still dissatisfied with what happened last time, but don't forget, if it weren't for our help, you wouldn't be so fast. After returning to China, I heard that you have been promoted one after another." Lin Rui smiled.
Krossoff looked at Lin Rui and said, "I'm not in the mood to make a joke with you. Let's just say it, why are you looking for me today?"
"Okay, then I'll be straightforward. There are two things. First, I need some manpower. I would like to ask you to introduce it to me. It is the company's needs, so I only want the best. You are in the intelligence department and the internal guard. People who have been there, you have connections in this regard. Am I right?" Lin Rui smiled at Krosov.
"Are you going to recruit mercenaries?" Krosov's face sank, somewhat displeased, "You are really blatant, pulling the Union officer to find you mercenaries."
"Krosov, you are aware of the military's attitude towards us. Although we did not allow it, in fact we have reached a certain degree of tacit agreement with the upper echelons. And at this stage, our existence is only important to the Russian Federation. There is no harm in the good." Lin Rui looked at him and said, "So how?"
"I only know that in the two Chechen wars, if it were not for your mercenaries to participate in them. The Russian army would not have such a large casualty." Krosov looked at Lin Rui and sneered, "So I have nothing to do with people like you. Good impression."
"First of all, don't confuse professional private military companies with low-level mercenaries." Lin Rui waved his hand. "We have rules and limits, and these rules will make us more efficient. And most of the time, we are. Both accept government contracts. You may treat us as colleagues who rob you of your jobs at the beginning, but over time you will find that our existence is a promotion and promotion for you, but in any case, don’t treat us as your enemies ."
Krosov sneered.
Lin Rui also smiled, "Actually, you have realized this a long time ago, but you just don’t understand us. I understand it. But since you can sit here today, you have already expressed your actual attitude. You don’t like us. , But you admit our ability. And you think we are really worth using, so you will come. Otherwise, this dinner can only be enjoyed by Yelena and I."
Krosov snorted coldly, "It's not impossible that you need manpower. I do know some people. How much do you need?"
"Forty or fifty people is enough. Let me make it clear first, I want the best." Lin Rui looked at him and said.
"Forty or fifty people, all have to be good at it, what do you want to do?" Krosov said in surprise, "You don't want to make trouble, do you?"
"Of course not. We are just recruiting employees to serve employers." Lin Rui took a sip of wine and looked at Krosov. "The second thing is that I am now in charge of the Russian branch. I need a contract."
"I can't control this." Krosov shook his head, "I don't have that much energy to help you. Although the government has a relaxed attitude towards you because of the military, it still won't do everything. Entrusted to a private company."
"Why not?" Lin Rui smiled, "Now the Russian army has started outsourcing logistics. Even in the army's kitchen, there are a few Slavic aunts who are hired outside to peel potatoes and cook for them. Other businesses Foreign contracting also obviously gave the military's top leaders a taste of the sweetness. Besides, our previous cooperations were also very pleasant."
"We will not let people from private military companies run wild on our turf. Unless there are overseas missions or other operations that are not suitable for our Russian army, we may consider hiring private companies. And such operations involve A series of authorization issues are not something I can decide." Krosov looked at Lin Rui.
"Don't talk to me about your bureaucracy. Power is always in the hands of people, and always a minority. We are not enough to balance the majority, but enough to balance the minority. If you can't, then tell me something Name. Then we will find a way." Lin Rui looked at him slowly.
"Yes, Silver Wolf has a way." Krosov sighed, "To tell you the truth, I am not here by myself. I am here by orders."
"Whose order?" Lin Rui said calmly.
"The Russian Internal Guard has now been changed to the National Guard. The first commander-in-chief is Zolotov, who is directly responsible to the President. His functions include the right to forcibly inspect citizens’ documents and vehicles; make surprise arrests and detain. Criminal suspects; the right to forcibly enter residential houses for public safety; the right to impose martial law in emergency situations; the right to carry out siege operations to stop large-scale riots; the right to carry out counter-terrorism operations by force, and without warning when a threat is imminent Use force, etc.
These functions previously belonged to the internal security forces, special police forces, and rapid reaction forces of the Ministry of the Interior. The new National Guard has the above-mentioned powers at the same time, and has greater operational rights under special circumstances. "Krosov whispered.
"Have heard of some." Lin Rui nodded.
"Coming today, Zolotov actually authorized me to contact you." Krosov looked at Lin Rui and said. "There is a very difficult task, I want to use your strength."
"It seems that I guessed right. There must be a reason for you to come today." Lin Rui smiled, "Tell me, what kind of mission is it?"
"Yemen mission." Krosov looked at Lin Rui and said, "The situation in Yemen is currently turbulent. We need you to help us find someone from there."
