The Cold War: Jumping back and forth between the two camps

Dunn received the transfer order that Lloyd sent back to him that evening.

To be honest, this gave Dunn a headache, because after all, the smuggling network on the Red Empire side had just been established, and he was not very confident about handing it over directly to John. Moreover, there was also a Leo on the Red Empire side who did not get along well with John.

As long as I am suppressing both sides, there won't be any major conflict. But once I am transferred away and leave these two enemies behind, I am afraid that even if I give the leadership to John, he won't be able to control Leo.

By then, I'm afraid Leo might do something bad.

But Dunn, who had already received the transfer order, could not delay too long, because when the time came, the US military would have to pick up his people. If he failed to do so, it would be difficult for him to explain.

After thinking about it, he gave Lloyd a truthful report on the situation in the Red Empire and firmly requested that Leo be taken away, which would save John a lot of trouble in his subsequent work.

To Dunn's surprise, Lloyd agreed without any hesitation.

It’s just that Rangli is not going to follow Dunn back to Tokyo.

Instead, Leo was asked to resign directly in Vladivostok and go to Europe to develop.

It seems that the five agents he brought with him this time cannot leave the territory of the Red Empire.

It's really funny to think about it. Before, when John was promoted to the inspection team, Leo teased and ridiculed him in various ways, saying that John could not leave the Red Empire.

As a result, Leo himself couldn't leave.

Because Dunn didn't know that Lloyd had basically confirmed that the Red Empire would never send troops in a short time.

There was no horizontal connection between him and Bai Jianming, otherwise he should have been able to easily figure out why Lloyd transferred him back.

After receiving Lloyd's reply, it was already early in the morning, but Dunn still woke up several other people, except for a port worker who went to work the night shift.

But that person is not important.

"I just received a transfer order. Leo, you should pack up tomorrow and resign from the lumber mill. Say that you can't stand the hard work there and want to go back to Europe!"

"Am I going back?"

Leo's eyes lit up. He felt excited as if he could finally leave this damn country.

But Dunn shook his head cruelly.

"No, you have really been transferred to the European region of the Red Empire. It seems that they are also short of people there. I will tell you who to contact in Moscow and the contact code later!"

Leo's face immediately fell after hearing this.

On the contrary, John next to him almost jumped up with joy.

"Leo! Who told me before that I would stay in the Red Empire and he would return home?"

Leo rolled his eyes at John, but he couldn't say anything in rebuttal at this time. Firstly, he was in a bad mood, and if he continued talking, there would definitely be a quarrel. And if he dared to quarrel with Dunn here, he would probably get beaten up.

The second reason is that what John said was indeed true. He did say the same thing a few days ago, and even said something more extreme. He didn't expect to be slapped in the face now.

"John, don't be too happy too soon!"

Dunn also smiled slightly. It was no big deal for John. He just had to stay in the Red Empire. Anyway, he was living a comfortable life here.

"I bet you'll be happier soon! Because you'll be in charge of all the people in Vladivostok! I'm being transferred back!"

After hearing what Dunn said, Leo's face became even uglier.

There is nothing more painful than knowing that your enemy is living a better life than you.

"What, sir, you're being transferred back?"

After hearing what Dunn said, John’s first reaction was not happiness;

Among the five people, only Deng was really successful in the Red Empire. He was afraid that if he stayed alone, he would not be able to handle the complicated situation.

"I'll talk to you more about this later!"

As he spoke he winked at John, and John immediately understood and stopped talking.

Next, Dunn looked at another agent working in the lumber mill besides Leo.

"After I leave, you can quit the lumber mill and go to work at the docks!

The external explanation is to follow John!"

The lumberjack agent nodded, but also raised his own questions.

"Aren't we monitoring the land route north of Vladivostok?"

"No need!"

Dunn waved his hand. He was sure that the Red Empire would never send troops because the Volunteer Army had done what it needed to do.

"Anyway, the entire Vladivostok is so small, if there is any disturbance, the news will definitely spread on the streets!

On the contrary, it is useless to leave you alone in the lumberyard. It is better to come to the dock together. There will be only four of you left, and you can take care of each other!"

The Nanming agent no longer raised any objections. He then instilled in everyone a little more about the work that would take place after his departure and told everyone to go back to sleep. Of course, John did not leave.

"From now on, the smuggling business will be under your control. I will then explain to Aliyev that my share of the profits will all belong to you. Of course, you still have to return my share of the profits to me!"

Dunn said with a sigh.

"Then what's your excuse for leaving? After all, anyone would be suspicious if you gave up such a huge amount of benefits when you left!"

John asked, somewhat worriedly.

"That's easy. Anyway, I've made a fortune from this smuggling business, and you'll be the one to collect the profits for me in the future. I can just quit my job and go home to count my money!"

Dunn made a joke at first, but then spoke seriously.

"I am planning to forge a letter saying that my mother is sick. The reason is that I want to go home to take care of my sick mother, so I will choose to resign from the port!"

John nodded.

At the same time, there was a hidden expectation in his heart, because Dunn just said that he would give him the money on the surface, but in fact, he might not have to give it to Dunn at all.

Although all the money he earned was in rubles, if used well, it would be enough for him to spend a lot of time in the Red Empire. Moreover, Dunn had mentioned this matter to him before, asking him to stay in the Red Empire for a long time to manage the smuggling routes.

He will have a share of the profits gained from the Red Empire on every trip.

We are talking about earnings in US dollars, not in rubles.

This is also the main reason why John is willing to stay in the Red Empire.

After finalizing some details, the two went back to their rooms to sleep.

The next day, Leo packed his bags and went to the sawmill to resign. He then got the contact information and code from Dunn, and left Vladivostok by train directly to the European part of the Red Empire.

Two days later, Dunn received a letter saying that his mother was seriously ill. After talking with Aliyev, Aliyev let Dunn go. Anyway, the smuggling route had been built now. If the other party had not insisted on giving Dunn a share of the profits, Aliyev would have kicked Dunn out long ago.

Although there is still a John, there is nothing that can be done about it. Zhang Dezhong, whom Dunn contacted, is relatively close to Dunn's family, so Dunn's cousin has to take over Dunn's profits.

It is actually nothing to blame.

After resigning, Dunn also left the port, and on an agreed night, he and everyone took out the kayaks they had brought with them.

After pushing the kayak into the sea and saying goodbye to the other four agents, Deng Wen paddled the kayak directly into the vast ocean.

Unlike the last time he came here, this time Dunn had to row the boat by himself.

This caused Dunn to suffer a lot. After all, the cost of rowing for six people and for one person is definitely different. Moreover, Dunn was sailing against the tide of the sea, which made it even more difficult for him to move forward.

However, they soon arrived near the United States' warships. After the United States confirmed the personnel information, they took Dunn back to Tokyo.

Nearly three months later, we finally left the Red Empire.

This trip was not as thrilling as the last one.

But the harvest is definitely much greater than last time.

At least the smuggling route to the Red Empire was finally opened.

After arriving in Tokyo, Dunn went to see Lloyd immediately.

He also learned from Lloyd the reason why he was called back.

"Sir, are you saying that the agent I sent to the Dandong region of the mainland was killed by our own army?"

Dunn did not show any abnormality regarding the news that the mainland was going to send troops. Instead, he was more concerned about the fact that his own people were killed in a bombing by the U.S. army.

"That's exactly the case. We've informed the military, and they've given up bombing the mainland!"

Lloyd also said somewhat embarrassedly, after all, those who died were all Dunn's men.

But Lloyd had no idea that Dunn had sent these people there to die.

There was no plan to let these people come back at all.

Otherwise, he would not have sent all the Chinese employees other than Bai Jianming to the Dandong area. Wasn't it just to give the mainland a reason to arrest them when the US army bombed Dandong?

"I just can't accept this kind of death. They could have been put to a much greater use!"

Dunn still pretended to be angry.

"No one wants this to happen to Dunn! Don't worry! I will give their family the best compensation!"

Lloyd patted Dunn on the shoulder and made his promise.

Dunn then pretended to be barely able to accept it.

Start talking to Lloyd about other things.

"Does the Chinese military really want to join the war? Is their understanding of themselves so unclear?"

Then Dunn also asked with a disdainful look.
