Chapter 732: Chapter 732 New Alliance_1

On the way to the capital, Petrov had a long conversation with the old chieftain, as they were in the same car.

As it happened, Petrov’s French was also quite good, so there were no barriers to their conversation.

Without beating around the bush, Petrov said straight away:

"At the Tribal Chieftain Joint Conference, I hope you will support Moomoo to be the next President. Only in this way can the capital remain peaceful and the situation stabilize quickly."

There was more to his words, the implication being that if Moomoo was not supported, it was uncertain what could happen in the capital.

Had this conversation taken place a few days ago, or before the old chieftain had witnessed the strength of the Wagner Company, he would likely have scoffed at Petrov’s words.

But now, he took every word Petrov said very seriously!

Because Petrov had the power to...

...ask him to support Moomoo as the next President was somewhat unexpected to the old chieftain.

At first, he was considering that he could through some kind of exchange of benefits win the Wagner Company’s support for himself...

After struggling for a while, the old chieftain finally voiced his concerns: "Moomoo... isn’t he too young...? I’m afraid he may not be able to win the support of the people!"

Ultimately, he was somewhat unwilling.

This was an opportunity for him to ascend to power too!

In particular, after Blaise’s sudden death, the old chieftain was likely the happiest as he thought he would no longer have competition.

Unfortunately, the Wagner Company emerged out of nowhere and was far superior in strength to him.

Petrov smiled and said nonchalantly: "Who dares to defy? Let them first ask the Wagner Company!"

The old chieftain was left speechless at once.

Petrov’s words were domineering, but he did indeed have the right to say so with the hovering helicopters and armored vehicles at his disposal!

Burkina Faso is now in a "chaotic" state, where power speaks an all.

With the support of Wagner’s Security Company, Moomoo, undoubtedly, is the strongest, with no close second.

It took a while before the old chieftain murmured: "What would I get in return?"

He did not have the guts to try anything else because the show of force by the Wagner Company that night had left him completely despaired.

With his tribe’s weak forces, some of whom were even still using "cold weapons", he was powerless against them.

Since he couldn’t change the situation, he decided to get as much benefit as possible.

He didn’t want to assist Moomoo reluctantly and end up with nothing after all his efforts.

Seeing the old chief give in, a smile spread across Petrov’s face. He was prepared for this.

He said: "After Moomoo takes office, you can be the Vice President, assisting him in handling domestic affairs. I believe, with your prestige, you should be competent for this job."

There was no position of Vice President in Kombore’s reign, because Kombore was afraid someone would share his authority.

The old chieftain was delighted upon hearing this.

The perks Petrov offered were bigger than he had expected!

Even when Blaise was alive, he only promised him the position of a Finance Minister, which was incomparable to that of a Vice President.

With limited time and the approaching capital city, the two quickly agreed on conditions and formed a new alliance.

With Moomoo and the old chieftain joining forces and supported by Petrov’s strong military, they were ready to deal with everyone that evening at the Tribal Chieftain Joint Conference.

.......

All this happened during the journey. Now their troops had grandly entered the capital.

Following the main road, they soon arrived outside the gates of the President’s Mansion.

The security here was already taken over by Blaise’s confidants, who was responsible for it after Blaise’s death.

With the core areas of the city under control and a meeting to be held at the President’s Mansion, the assistants moved most of their available forces to the mansion.

On one hand, to ensure the meeting’s security and their ability to defend themselves in case of an incident.

On the other hand, it was also a way of "intimidation" against the chieftains who were attending the meeting!

The President’s Mansion Guard was the most elite force in the whole of Burkina Faso. With two or three hundred elite soldiers gathered here, the tribal chieftains were too frightened to speak up against them.

The two assistants of Blaise were ready to greet the arriving chieftains at the gate of the President’s Mansion.

"Listen, we can discuss how to divide the powers between us after the meeting. The key now is to appease the chieftains, get their support, and have them stand with us. Where we are now is unexpected to all, but we can’t panic. We must grit our teeth and hold on. Furthermore, it’s not all bad..."

One of the assistants said earnestly to the other.

Having worked together for many years, they understood each other very well and their abilities were more or less the same.

In this situation of a power vacuum, they both naturally hoped to seize the position, but they also understood that it wasn’t the time for internal dispute.

They needed to join forces first and present a united front!

Once the chieftains were appeased, they could then discuss who would assume the position among themselves.

"I understand, so I have already ordered that the armed forces brought by the chieftains be stationed outside the city and not allowed into the capital. Even if they were allowed in, they wouldn’t stand a chance against our elite forces at the President’s Mansion," the other assistant said knowingly.

When it comes to outsmarting and fighting, they may not be too confident, but if it’s war, the forces they command are the strongest in Burkina Faso!

Of this, they were very confident.

However, when Moomoo and his team arrived at the gate of the President’s Mansion, both of their faces changed.

They were dumbfounded, looking at the heavy helicopters flying from afar and the light armored cars driving towards them, as if they were seeing aliens!

Where did these troops come from?

They didn’t consider it was a tribal chief’s troops, because it simply wasn’t possible!

Just looking at those helicopters and light armored cars, not to mention the high purchase costs, even the maintenance costs could bankrupt many tribes!

They were very aware of how impoverished the tribes in Burkina Faso were.

So, their first reaction was to wonder if a neighboring country had suddenly invaded...
