บท 688: A Simple Mission

As he was about to return from his two-day trip in Huiyuan, Lou Cheng received a call from Empress Luo. 

"The military has assigned you a mission," said Ning Zitong directly. 

"What mission?" Lou Cheng wasn't foolish enough to accept right away. 

Ning Zitong chuckled. 

"It's nothing difficult. There's a drug cartel operating in the war-torn zones in the southern regions of China. They have severely disrupted the peace and stability of the borderlands. After prolonged negotiations, we've reached an agreement with America to organize a joint raid." 

"Did America have a hand in this previously?" asked Lou Cheng shrewdly. 

"How else do you think the Ta Gu gang grew stronger while being on our radar? Converting enemies, subversion, disrupting order, funding factions, brewing chaos, it's what the American Intelligence Agency does," said Ning Zitong mockingly. "Anyway, the Ta Gu gang is no longer valuable to them."
