Chapter 647 Racial Discrimination

"Commander, this is the result of our general discussion based on the establishment of the Somaliland Military Region!" On the fifth floor of the newly established Ministry of National Defense Building, in the office of Li Mo, First Vice Chairman of the Somali National Defense Commission and Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the National Defense Force, Chief of Staff personally came to report with a report.

"Oh? Are you ready? Sit down first and let me have a look!" Li Mo took the report handed over by Hussein and pointed to the sofa on one side and smiled.

May Day has passed, and others may have a day or two of vacation, but for important high-level officials like Li Mo, there are few holidays.

The report to be submitted by Chief of Staff Hussein is the establishment of the fourth military region of Somalia - the Somaliland Military Region. The jurisdiction is within the former Somaliland-controlled area and part of the Northern Military Region, with a total of four states: Odale, Hargeisa, Togdale and Sanag. Among them, Sanag Province was originally controlled by half of Somaliland and Somalia, but now Somalia has returned. For the overall defense layout, Sanag Province has been allocated to the newly established Somaliland Military Region.

In the report of the General Staff, the headquarters of the Somaliland Military Region will be located in Hargeisa City, with three brigades under the jurisdiction of the Military Region. Among them, there is the Fifth Infantry Brigade, the 8th Infantry Brigade, which originally belonged to the Capital Military Region, and a 13th Infantry Brigade formed by the former Somali army to streamline the unqualified ones and replace one-third of the officers and soldiers with other infantry brigades.

Commander Muhammad? Ben? Brigadier General Palmer, Chief of Staff Abdul? Colonel Shafiger.

In addition, a large radar station and an air base were built near the city of Hargeisa. The MiG-25 fighter detachment of the Somali Air Force is stationed at Hargeisa Air Force Base.

After the organization and division of the Somaliland Military Region, the report also challenges the troops under the other three military regions to better meet the current national defense needs of Somalia.

The Capital Military Region manages four states and has three brigades under its jurisdiction. Among them are the 1st Armored Brigade, the 4th Infantry Brigade and the 10th Infantry Brigade, Commander, Defense Commissioner Abdul? Major General Adam, Chief of Staff Abdul? Kaddell? Colonel Mahmoud.

The Northern Military Region manages five states and has four brigades. The 3rd Infantry Brigade, the 9th, 11th and 12th infantry brigades. The commander is Muhammad, the former commander of the Third Aircraft Brigade. Abdul? Brigadier General Saleh served, and the former commander of the Third Aircraft Brigade was taken over by the deputy brigade commander. Ahmed, Chief of Staff of the Military Region? Mahmud? Colonel Gudus.

The Southern Military Region has jurisdiction over five states and four brigades. The 1st Infantry Brigade, the 2nd Infantry Brigade, and the 6th and 7th Infantry Brigade. Commander Hassan? Omar? Brigadier General Hasib, Chief of Staff Osman? Mehdi? Colonel Semile.

The whole report fully analyzes the tension of the current surrounding situation in Somalia. It can be seen from the report that the strength of the troops under the Southern Military Region is still stronger than that of the Northern Military Region and the Somaliland Military Region, second only to the Capital Military Region. This is not only because the jurisdiction of the Southern Military Region is Li Mo's nest, which includes Li Mo's Camel Mountain Base and Badada Town Industrial Park, and also counts the important factor of Kenya. The previous Sokken War ended with the victory of Somalia, which does not mean that there is no danger in the south. On the contrary, the possibility of a new round of conflict in the south is still higher than that of other directions. It's just that at present, the Kenyan army does not have that strength and is still recuperating. Everyone believes that as long as there is a chance, the Kenyan political axe will definitely rush up and bite Somalia fiercely.

"Hussein, this plan is well done. It seems that the staff is very attentive. But there is one thing you should pay attention to!" Li Mo signed his name on the document, but did not immediately give it to Hussein. Instead, he put it on the table and looked at Hussein and said.

"In Somalia, you can't just value Arab Somalis. You must remember not to be biased in this regard. Otherwise, there will be a big problem!" Li Mo said coldly.

In this plan, the transfer of commanders of various military regions and some brigades is mostly Arab Somalis. This is not good. After all, most of Somalia is still black. Although there are many brown Arabs, they are still much less than blacks (indigenous). If there is a phenomenon in the Somali army, it is easy for Arabs to be promoted, but it is very difficult for black officers, which is not conducive to unity. Sooner or later, there will be chaos.

Hussain was shocked. Unexpectedly, the boss knew that most of them were Arabs just from his written names. You know, most of Somalia's cultural traditions are learned by Arabs. The same is true of names. Many black people have the same names as Arabs. Literally, it can't be seen at all. But then Hussein became clear. Everyone's name in the report is a senior officer in the National Defense Force. How can the boss not know such an officer? Not to mention the annual gathering, even the intelligence department in the boss's hand must put all the information of these people on the boss's table in detail.

"I'm sorry, boss. I'll go back and make a new report right away." Hussein said, secretly wiping the cold sweat on his forehead. Although these people are not pure Arabs, after all, Arab blood accounts for the majority. He himself has three-quarters of Arab blood, and naturally he values officers of high Arab blood more.

Li Mo's sharp eyes took a deep look at Hussein and said, "Forget it this time. When you go back, you should pay attention to my words. There must be no racial discrimination in the army. If something goes wrong, I'll be the first to settle accounts with you!"

"Go!" Li Mo handed the approved report to Hussein and waved his hand.

Looking at the back of Hussein's departure, Li Mo frowned slightly. He has never considered the issue of racial discrimination. In his mind, racial discrimination will only appear in the majority of racist minorities. Just as white people in the U.S. military discriminate against black people, they didn't expect that in Somalia, the vast majority of Somalis would be discriminated against by Arabs in the army. This is not a good phenomenon.

Once racial discrimination causes contradictions, it is almost difficult to solve. If it is used by intentional people, no one can afford to bear the consequences. In particular, Li Mo is still a Chinese. If the race issue is incited, he will not be in a stable position. He will never allow this.

Disposing of the remaining documents about the army. Li Mo looked at the time. It's almost noon. He stretched out his hands and sighed in his heart that time passed so fast. He

Li Mo is now the deputy commander-in-chief, responsible for the daily work of the National Defense Force. Many of the work that was originally managed by the general manager is currently handled by him. Thinking of the general ginseng, Li Mo couldn't help thinking of Hussein. This time he served as the deputy commander-in-chief. It can be said that he has taken over a lot of power in Hussein's hands, and I don't know if Hussein has any ideas in his mind. But... I hope he can think about it.

"Fox, prepare the car, I'm going to the Arab Hotel." Li Mo picked up the internal phone and told Colonel An Li, the director of the outside office. Now the identity of the fox has also changed with Li Mo as the deputy commander. Fox is now the director of the office of the Third Army Command and the adjutant of Li Mo, and his military rank has also been promoted from lieutenant colonel to colonel.

Entering the Arab Hotel, Li Mo saw two smiling shadows in the hall. Before coming, Li Mo called Zhang Lixia, and the two girls came down to greet her with joy.

"Wives, are your uncles and aunts angry?" In the elevator, Li Mo hugged Liu Wei's waist behind him and asked nervously.

Liu Zhengdong and the other two people have been in Somalia for two days. In addition to having lunch with several people on the first day, Li Mo only appeared on the second day. In such a situation, Li Mo also knew that it was impossible, but in the past two days, because of his appointment, many problems were sent to the headquarters of the Third Army at once. He, the deputy commander, had just taken office, and it was not easy to take a vacation immediately.

"Yes... My mother was angry. She said that the stinky boy dared to hang a few people here and asked me to teach you a lesson... As soon as the little girl heard Li Mo's words, she immediately said proudly. The petite and exquisite body gradually became plump and twisted in Li Mo's arms. I don't know whether it's because of the delicate smile or on purpose.

Li Mo was speechless and had to look at Zhang Lixia on one side.

"What Xiaowei said is true!" Zhang Lixia smiled gently, but one sentence erased Li Mo's last hope. "Aunt Yang said that if you don't give an explanation this time, she will take Xiaowei home under house arrest."

Li Mo's heart trembled, and his hand holding the little girl couldn't help tightening. Yang Xiaorou is really shrewd and knows where her weakness is. Although Li Mo knew that this was just a joke, it also showed that the four elders were a little dissatisfied with his attitude these two days.

"Honey, didn't you explain that I was busy with work just now?" Li Mo plead with some injustice.

"I said it!" Zhang Lixia smiled and said, "That's why Aunt Yang gave you a chance to remedy it, otherwise Xiaowei would have said Huaxia."

"Husband, I'm not leaving!" The little girl may feel Li Mo's change and quickly turned her head and said.

"Well, no one can take you away!" Li Molian nodded and said firmly.

In the room, Li Mo saw several women talking. To Li Mo's surprise, he actually saw a person who made him feel guilty - Bai Jing.

In the past two days, Li Mo was really scared for a while. For nothing else, once the matter of that night is leaked out, his image will be ruined.

Seeing Li Mo, Zhang Lixia and Li Mo behind Liu Wei, the laughter and voice in the living room suddenly disappeared. All kinds of complicated eyes were turned to Li Mo.

"Dead boy, you finally showed up?" Yang Xiaorou, who was quite fierce, said with a smile as soon as she saw Li Mo.

Because there were many people, several sofas were full. Tian Xinlan, who was originally sitting with his mother, actually moved aside a position and pointed to Li Mo in the middle.

The smile on Li Mo's face paused and sat in the middle nervously. Tian Xinlan was happy to hold Li Mo's arm.

"Aunt Yang, I'm sorry. I've been so busy with work these two days that I've neglected you. But in the next few days, I will have time to accompany you around Somalia and experience the different characteristics of China. Although Li Mo was talking, the right half of his body was numb, and most of his energy was also on Bai Jing on the right side.

Well, just thinking about so many names is about to kill me...
