Chapter 724 Suspicious Light Spots on Radar
Baidoa City has a population of 200,000, with four main roads, which make the whole city a whole.
When Li Mo inspected the missile assembly workshop, some indigenous or foreign tourists in Baidoa also began to 'act'.
A light truck printed with electrical appliances is running along a road in the suburbs of Baidoa.
James? Li wore a cap and a T-shirt with the logo of the electrical appliance industry, and drove aimlessly. This is his fifth day when he came to Baidoa. In name, the electrical appliance company plans to open a branch in Baidoa. He assists the owner of the electrical appliance store to transport goods, but in fact, only he understands that his real purpose is to find an opportunity to find information about the industrial park of Star Company.
Baido Aben is an important city in western Somalia and an important city in the Midwest to prevent Ethiopia. Because it is far from the coast, the geographical location is very important, and it was later identified by Li Mo as the location of the second military base.
With the tilt of the political axe policy and the lead of Xingchen Group, a group of old and new rich businessmen in Somalia saw the business opportunities and followed them, placing some design industrial manufacturing, electronics and other industries that meet the requirements of Xingchen Group here.
In Somalia, whoever doesn't know that he wants to make money is the best way to be consistent with Star Group. Once he is valued by Star Group and becomes a member of an important project or production chain, he can basically sit at home and count money. Don't deliberately cater to the political axe department, and there is no need to attack key points, as long as Star Group Satisfied, as long as you cooperate with Xingchen Group to become a supplier, you are a 'patriotic entrepreneur' and can get a plaque issued by Xingchen Group, which has the role of deterying the four generations.
Follow the Star Group, and you don't have to worry about eating and drinking all your life!
With the construction of nearly half a year, Baidoa City has initially taken the shape of an industrial town, and its status in Somalia is becoming more and more important. Foreign intelligence agencies also regard it as an important spy target, intending to obtain important confidential information here.
In the days of the turmoil on the Essou border, Baidoa was really nervous for a while, because once the war broke out in Esso, Baidoa was basically not spared, and it would definitely become an important weapon transit station and logistics base for the Central and Western defense lines.
Fortunately, Ethiopia is soft! He was scared by the tough posture of Deputy Commander-in-Chief Li and withdrew his sharp claws. Unlike others who only know how to brag, Deputy Commander-in-Chief Li really dares to cut people with a knife.
With the tough attitude of the new policy axe and the army to the outside world, the reform measures to benefit the country and the people have completely stimulated the national pride of the 13 million Somali people today.
The power of the ignorant people may be very small, and their knowledge may be very shallow, but it does not hinder their respect and love for Li Mo, the Chinese commander. They only know that is, because of Commander Li, Somalia has only ended its civil war for more than ten years, and millions of Somali refugees and millions of people with no food and clothing can return. Home, rebuild the home with the help of the political axe and the army.
Now the benefits of political axe and some of Li Mo's long-term policy planning have begun to be felt by the people, and with the passage of time, more and more Somalis will become Li Mo's supporters.
The foreign intelligence forces in Somalia are sorting out military, economic and people's livelihood information in detail. They may be the foreigners who can feel this change the most.
James? Although Li was driving, he looked a little worried. Although he only came to Somalia for half a year, James felt that his "right" work in Somalia was more frightening than risking al-Qaeda, the Taliban and guerrillas to fight back against assassinations in Afghanistan.
On the other side of Afghanistan, although the situation of front-line intelligence personnel is more dangerous and it is easy to be exposed and killed, there is an advantage of working there, that is, the situation in Afghanistan is unstable. From the political axe in the north to the civilian people, almost all of them are scattered sand. This gives the intelligence personnel a chance to fish in troubled waters. Moreover, the intelligence personnel only need to find the enemy's lair, and do not need to enter it in person. They just need to call for support and let the Afghan U.S. military send troops to destroy it.
In Somalia, the social situation has stabilized, and the upper and lower levels can unite to serve the development of Somalia. After several failures and purge of the internal forces of Somalia pulled by the CIA, the CIA's work has become more and more difficult, because no one is willing to work for the CIA at the risk of being killed. Even if there are people who are not afraid of death, these people are either criminals who have been hit by political axes, or scoundrels and scoundrels. Love can be used, but real confidential intelligence and arduous tasks are useless for these people.
When a country and a nation are truly united around a strong leadership team, it is very difficult to break through internally.
Li Mo's behavior is different from that of other political strongmen, because Li Mo was born in the countryside and could better understand the important surnames at the grassroots level, understand the sufferings of the people, and know how to grasp the reverse direction of the hearts of the residents. As long as Li Mo firmly grasps the hearts of the residents, the interior is almost indestructible.
It is not easy to find a breakthrough from the inside, and it is even very difficult to fight against Somalia and senior military officials.
Before, James had sent a competent hand to win over an important military officer. Unexpectedly, the officer with a $100,000 cash check would not return. You know, he was very optimistic about the counter-compromising mission, because James once promised that as long as the other party served the CIA, he would be able to To get more benefits, the other party still took down his powerful man and sent it to the Somali intelligence service.
James doesn't know at all that Li Mo has to spend a lot of money every year to closely unite military officers around him. Every year during the Chinese Spring Festival, the Camel Mountain Base holds a gathering of officers above the battalion level of the whole army. At the party, Li Mo and a group of senior officials will issue a 'year-end bonus' according to different officer levels in the form of bonuses, ranging from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars. Below the regular camp level, some loyal and qualified tops are selected to participate in the meeting every year and pay bonuses.
The bondage of interests is very strong. As long as you serve in the Somali National Defense Force, you don't need to pay for money. There are bonuses every year, and food and accommodation are all-inclusive by the army. After retirement, even a battalion-level officer can save hundreds of thousands of dollars, which is enough to live in Somalia. Life.
And ordinary soldiers, even the lowest-paid infantry, have five or six hundred dollars a year. The per capita annual income of Somalia is only 200 US dollars.
Li Mo spends 100 million US dollars every year just to pay military salaries and bonuses.
With a perfect 'welfare security', naturally there is no one who is willing to provide information to foreign forces for money. Work hard for the boss, we don't have to worry about food and clothing, and we can become rich after retirement. If you work for foreign forces, once you are found, you will not only have no benefits, but also be shot, and even to your descendants. There may be some really stupid people, but there are absolutely no fools who can get to a certain level in the army.
The intelligence department in Li Mo's hand is also very powerful. Several important cases of leaking secrets in the army were solved in a very short time. The people involved were basically shot directly. No one knows who is the dark line of the Intelligence Department around them. In this case, who is willing to take risks for 100,000 US dollars?
Moreover, there is another reason why it is difficult for many officers to be merging in, that is, those who now hold important positions in the army are all from refugee camps. Their loyalty to Li Mo can be said to be very high. It's not Li Mo. They are still suffering and poverty abroad.
James, who is worried? Li, I didn't notice that a very common local old pickup truck was tracking a distance behind the car. Every once in a while, the pickup truck would disappear and replace it with a different car.
And a piece of information was also summarized at this time and finally placed on Wang Ning's desk.
In the information security center of the headquarters of Xingchen Group, Chen Zhichang is staring at one side of the display screen, which shows the Somali radar warning map.
There is a small dot on the radar screen, which is so dazzling. Originally, when he saw this small dot, any radar soldier knew that there was a situation, but Chen Zhichang frowned and doubted the exact surname of this small dot.
The warning radar originally used in Somalia is basically the old and used goods of the former Soviet Union left by the former political axe, which is no longer suitable for modern military requirements. This cooperation with Huaxia includes a set of high-altitude long-range C3 radar warning system. It can detect flying targets within a distance of 2,000 kilometers and an altitude of 30 kilometers. This radar system has just been deployed, and some situations have been found these days, but it has never embarrassed Chen Zhichang as much as it is today.
Because he found the target representing the flying object in the display, he was at an altitude of 24,000 meters above Baidoa City, and it had been four hours since he found it, and the light spot almost circled over Baidoa City.
This special situation makes Chen Zhichang very strange, because as far as he knows, there are many planes flying to an altitude of 24,000 meters at present, but it is basically impossible to float in the air for more than four hours without refueling. Unless...
Chen Zhichang was shocked and the secret was broken. This may be a reconnaissance plane.
"Pone the boss's phone call now!" Chen Zhichang suddenly stood up and shouted to his secretary.
After receiving Chen Zhichang's phone call, Li Mo did not have time to blame. Instead, he dialed the Air Force Base of the Capital Military Region and ordered the Air Force to send aircraft to observe over Baidoa. If it was other reconnaissance aircraft, it was allowed to shoot down.
Several officers who accompanied Li Mo turned black when they saw that the boss received a phone call. They were all cold and carefully made eye contact with each other.
Soon, two MiG-25 high-altitude high-speed interceptor planes took off from Balaad Air Base in the Capital Military Region, heading northwest towards Baidoa.
