South America, Colombia.
In a secret manor house in the city of Medellín.
Pablo Escobar rubbed his temples and leaned into the tub in a daze, unable to interest him even by the beautiful woman beside him who was serving him.
The situation is moving further and further against Escobar, who is under increasing pressure as the Colombian government's resolve to fight drugs grows.
Just last year, Colombian government forces and Americans joined forces to launch a massive attack on the Medellín group's lair.
The Americans used Hercules transport planes to transport more than 5,000 Colombian government soldiers to Medellín, and also used 16 fighter jets and Apache helicopter gunships for air support.
Escobar suffered heavy losses in the sudden military strike, with 150 drug traffickers killed in the battle and more than 1,000 captured by government forces.
Although a month later, Escobar made a thunderous counterattack, not only shooting Colombian Justice Minister Lara.
They also stormed the building of the Colombian Ministry of Justice and confronted more than 400 Colombian military police, but sadly, only 34 policemen and a dozen judges were killed in the battle.
Escobar now lives in fear all day long.
He was not afraid of the Colombian government forces, but because the Americans were involved.
The assault rifles and rockets in the hands of the drug dealers of the Medellín group are definitely no match for the helicopter gunships and 16 fighters of the Americans.
The siege of the Colombian Ministry of Justice building was already Escobar's greatest effort.
Escobar now has a deep understanding of the saying that backwardness is beaten by those far-left guerrillas, and he is not short of money or people.
What he lacked was advanced weapons and ammunition, because Escobar had no ability to fight back against American helicopters and fighter jets.
But he still has a glimmer of hope, and that is his friends, the Russians who helped him deal with the money.
These people can even get the special car of the General Secretary of the Soviet Union and give it to him, and what else these people can't do.
"Boss, those Russian guests have arrived," one of his men approached Escobar and whispered in his ear.
Escobar stopped what he was doing, he stood up, and left the tub.
Then he took his bathrobe and put it on his body, and said to the subordinates beside him: "Let the guests wait for me for a while, and treat them well." ” Ten minutes later, Escobar arrived in the reception room, saw Yuri and Ivankov, and hurried up to hug them, muttering, "My brother, it's a pleasure to see you" "Pablo, what the hell happened to calling us here in such a hurry" Yuri took the initiative to ask, in fact, Yuri and Pablo didn't meet much, most of them were because of business matters, and he really needed to meet in person.
But now that the business is stable, there's nothing to discuss.
"My brother, you must help me this time, I am being targeted by the Americans, they have planes, and missiles, but I only have assault rifles and rockets, I want you to help me, help me get some more lethal weapons," Escobar said straight to the point.
"Man, then you're looking for the wrong person, we're not involved in the arms business, and you still want weapons that can fight the Americans, I'm afraid even the Colombian government can't buy them," Yuri subconsciously refused.
"No, brother, I know what you are capable of, you can even get your hands on the special car of the General Secretary of the Soviet Union, a little weapon should not be difficult for your guys, we have been working together happily for so many years, if I am caught by the Americans, what good will it do you" Escobar said impatiently, he is too dangerous now, after the last counterattack, Escobar was angry and saved his reputation.
But his losses were not a fraction of the story, as the prison held thousands of his men, and without rescuing them, Escobar could hardly guarantee that he would survive one government action after another.
Yuri and Ivankov glanced at each other, they could hear the meaning of Escobar's words, and after so many years of cooperation, they could be regarded as a relationship of lips and teeth.
If Escobar falls into the hands of Colombian government forces, then he will definitely be extradited to the United States.
When the time comes, the affairs of the Gorky Brotherhood will inevitably leak out.
"Okay, Pablo, your request is so sudden, we are not prepared at all, I have to discuss this with our Boss Nikolai," Yuri replied conservatively.
"My brothers, I hope you can stay here a little longer, after all, I don't know much about war, and the same is true about weapons" "Are you trying to put us under house arrest?"
Ivankov asked suddenly angrily, interrupting Escobar's speech and staring at Escobar with sharp eyes.
"No, brother, you misunderstood me, I just want to know your answer as quickly as possible, my situation is not good, I hope you can agree to help me as soon as possible," Escobar said kindly.
Yuri stood up and pressed Ivankov's shoulder to calm him down.
It's just too big, and Yuri really doesn't have the guts to take matters into his own hands.
So shortly after the end of the meeting that day, Yuri contacted Seryosha and told Seryosha everything about the matter, and then asked Seryosha for his opinion.
"Hey, I'm really afraid of something, Yuri, I'm afraid we can't shirk this matter," Seryosha said with emotion on the phone.
"Boss, I'm sorry," Yuri said with some shame, Escobar was the client he had won, and now he was in trouble, but he had to let the entire Gorky Brotherhood help him out.
"Why do you say that, I heard my dad say that recently a former KGB employee of our brotherhood came to us, claiming to have a connection to the arms trade.
Anyway, my father and I don't feel very comfortable with him, so let him do this business, if something happens, just let him carry it," Seryosha said on the phone.
"The KGB, how could the KGB join us, it can't be a secret agent," Yuri asked uneasily.
"Don't worry, I asked Director Mortin about the whereabouts of this man, and he was indeed abandoned by the KGB.
You know that our general secretary has always disliked the KGB, and they have taken up a lot of funds and expenses, so I am not surprised at all that this time the KGB was attacked," Seryosha replied.
"When will you answer me," Yuri finally asked.
"Within a week," Seryosha replied. t1706231537:
