Chapter 150 Two Atmospheres
A mouthful of smoke exhaled, and the newly formed blue dragon dispersed in an instant after the breeze.
Li Mo, sitting in front of the computer, was bored with the news, but he was thinking about the news learned from the four gangsters in the park.
These four hoodlums were ordered by a young man named Long to teach Li Mo a lesson. According to the description of the hoodlum leader, Li Mo immediately took out the image of a person in his mind, that is, a little brother who followed Zhao Xinyu in the school restaurant: A Long!
Li Mo had read a lot of things in the novel before he was reborn. He was not particularly surprised. He was just surprised that Zhao Xinyu could use this method.
not to mention Zhao Xinyu's 'tiger' of Zhang Lixia, in Li Mo's heart, Zhao Xinyu's image is quite good. Unexpectedly, he was also a golden person.
But Zhao Xinyu issued an order to these gangsters through his younger brother, which made Li Mo look up at him again. Compared with some playboys, Zhao Xinyu's mind was a little deeper. Despite the deep limitations.
Li Mo has always pursued preemption. Except for Jin Shaoyang, who intercepted himself outside the Emgrand nightclub last time. But Liang Wuxin, the insugger of that time, has died 'accidentally'.
"Then let's play!" After pondering for a while, Li Mo suddenly smiled and pressed the cigarette butt in his hand into the ashtray.
......
The school is still plain, only occasionally breaking the news of so-and-so students, lace, bizarre, appreciation, etc. In addition to boredom, Li Mo often comments in the school forum.
Somalia, thousands of miles away, is surging again.
A few days ago, the secret alliance between the newly rising Paramin Cooking Army and the Hanwen Resistance Army in the south was leaked by someone, which made various forces inside and outside Somalia very uneasy. Paramin's cooking army is a newborn younger brother, but the background is very mysterious, as if it suddenly appeared. This also made the major forces not exterminate them in the first place.
Just under the pervasive exploration of various forces, there is still no news behind the scenes. The alliance between the Paraming Cooking Army and the Hanwen Resistance Army shocked the plotting forces.
Close to these two forces is the Somali Patriotic Movement (Aiyun), one of the four oldest forces in Somalia. At the first time, Aiyun abandoned a few less important small towns, withdrew the main troops, and began to recruit troops secretly.
Somalia's population is not large, but many years of war have made each other wary. At the same time, they have sent elite undercover agents to each other's organizations; Aiyun's secret actions have caused a series of successive reactions.
First of all, the Somali National Movement in central Somalia immediately announced that in order to solve the living problems of the people under its rule, it decided to form two engineering corps to develop mines and build roads.
The high-profile announcement of the Somali National Movement was that a boulder was smashed on the calm lake in Somalia, and all forces responded one after another. Everyone knows that there are not many mines in Somalia, especially the scope controlled by the Somali national movement. Where do we need two engineering corps? Isn't it obvious to form a new army and carry out military expansion?
The first thing that pops up is the central political axe of Somalia, which only controls the capital Mogadishu, righteously condemns the Somali national movement as a naked military competition and undermines the seemingly peaceful situation in Somalia.
As an African, UN Secretary-General Annan immediately stood up and called on all forces in Somalia to put the overall situation first and not to bring African people into war again.
Except for the largest force in the country, Somaliland in the north did not make any remarks, and other forces have made strong condemnation declarations, but secretly urgently recruited soldiers to buy arms.
The situation in Somalia has been turbulent. And the attention of foreign powers has also attracted the attention of this small East African country.
As early as 1993, the United States, which dominated the United Nations and carried out an "Operation to Restore Hope" in Somalia, still remembers Somalia vividly. At that time, the elite soldiers of the United States Delta and the Rangers special forces were defeated in Mogadishu, the capital of Somalia. They not only did not catch Aidid, the leader of the most powerful Somali Federation at that time, but also lost many elite soldiers. This time, after 27 months, the military operation costing more than 2 billion US dollars, It ended in failure.
Somalia's geographical location is very important, close to the Gulf of Aden, curbing the access to the Red Sea. The United States has always been salivating here. Although it has failed here once and even made the U.S. military afraid of the ground war, it can't stop the coveting of American chaebols and interest groups. At the first time, U.S. President Bush made an ambiguous speech at the White House. On the surface, he condemned the Somali local warlords for creating contradictions and tension, but it was deeply inciting.
The turmoil in Somalia has also aroused the vigilance of neighboring countries. Ethiopia and Kenya have strengthened their border defenses almost at the same time.
Regardless of the ups and downs of the outside world, inside the base, experts and others held a small banquet to celebrate the increase in arms sales.
"Expert, what do you think of the boss's idea this time? By now, our inventory is almost sold out by this group of indigenous people!" After drinking the white wine in the glass, the mouse smiled and praised. A blush slowly appeared on his thin face, but the mouse was unaware of it. At this moment, he was immersed in the joy of the booming arms sales.
The experts and others around the main table looked at each other and smiled and nodded at the same time.
"A while ago, the boss told us to increase the production of weapons, even if we put all our money into it. At that time, I was still discussing how the boss could give such a strange order so abruptly. Now I understand that the boss has known the current situation for a long time!" The expert's face was originally ashamed, but with the end of his words, it gradually became a kind of reverence. That's the admiration for Li Mo's foresight!
"Expert, how many weapons have we sold this time?" Everyone knows the boss's strangeness, but this does not mean that everyone can't marvel at the boss's mystery again and again. Stone has been with Li Mo for the longest time, and he also knows that Li Mo doesn't care whether his subordinates respect him or not, so he can regain his peace in such a short time.
Stone's words made everyone stop talking at the same time. They looked eagerly at the expert sitting in the middle and said a thousand and ten thousand, isn't it all for the word 'profit'?
The expert meditated for a while and seemed to calculate in his mind. Everyone held their breath and blinked for fear of missing the following words.
"Our original rifles are not in stock, only 10,000, 100 rocket launchers, 20 mortars, and other bullets." The expert vaguely said a period of sudden fixation, laughingly looking at the people who pricked up their ears, laughing, "In this week, we have sold a total of 13,000 rifles, and all other rocket launchers and mortars have been sold out, and because of the tension in Somalia, the price of arms has increased by 20%. The sales price of each rifle is about $420; the unit price of the rocket launcher is $1,000 each, with an anti-injury grenade and an armor-piercing shell. The price of a mortar is $30,000 per rifle and $100 per shell, with a total income of $5.3 million..."
"To celebrate the sales growth of our arms, let's have a drink!" Finally, the stone raised the glass and said with a smile.
"Cheers..."
Compared with the relaxed atmosphere inside the base, the Para tribe, which is more than ten kilometers away, is surrounded by a tense atmosphere.
In the alliance with the Hanwen Resistance Army, Moore expected to cause the restlessness of the surrounding forces at the beginning, but he did not expect that it would cause a great response not only at home but also internationally, and most of these reactions were condemnation. The heavy pressure made the senior officials of Paramin's army gather to discuss countermeasures.
This is the innermost conference room on the third floor. At this time, more than a dozen people are gathered, most of whom are wearing shiny military uniforms.
But this group of important people who usually hold power are not relaxed at all, and the whole conference room reveals this dullness. Occasionally, the two of them also lowered their heads, suppressed their voices and whispered a few words and then stopped.
Mohr held a thick cigar in his ally, Carl, the second leader of the Hanwen Resistance Army, gave it to him, saying that it was an authentic Cuban cigar.
But now, Moore smokes this kind of cigar worth hundreds of dollars, but he can't feel the atmosphere at all, and sparks flashed in his eyes from time to time.
"Ban!"
With a loud noise, the whole conference room immediately calmed down. Everyone looked at the leader sitting in the main seat puzzledly.
"Gentlemen, I asked you to discuss how to get out of the current predicament next, not to distract you!" Moore's deep voice sounded in the conference room, and his squinted eyes also opened, slowly patrolling the group of men.
When they came into contact with the leader's sharp eyes, everyone lowered their heads and dared not look at each other. Their group of generals, a few months ago, were a group of farmers or bankrupts. It was too difficult for them to discuss international affairs here.
The dodge of his men made Moore, who was bored, completely angry, but now he still has to rely on this group of people to guard his huge territory, and he can't beat and scold like his own people.
At this time, Moore suddenly regretted that he should not have made an arbitrary alliance with the Hanwen Resistance Army at that time. Now facing great pressure from the outside world, the Hanwen Resistance Army actually abandoned itself. In the face of the weapons, equipment and money they began to promise, they did not mention it at all. On the contrary, he flirts with his own enemy.
At this time, Moore was not only under pressure at home and abroad, but also the demands of the people. These were promised before he occupied. If it could not be completed, Moore didn't know when he would be executed by the angry people. Was it a year or a month?
When Moore looked at his eldest son Senli, he saw his son's eyes for a while and then moved away. I didn't wait for Moore to be disappointed. Someone is talking.
"Leader, soldiers of our regiment, this month's salary hasn't been settled yet. I'm afraid they will make trouble!" After a long silence, a colonel finally couldn't stand the depressing atmosphere and suddenly stood up and said.
It's just that everyone didn't expect that what the colonel said had nothing to do with the question asked by Moore.
