Three hundred and fourteenth chapters use war to support war
Krauchen's words made it clear that he wanted to make a deal. If the Ling family supported South Sudan over there, then the Holy See would promote Ling Cang.
Although no matter what level of official you become, the Holy See does not give you a salary. But with such a title, you still feel a sense of accomplishment. More importantly, you can mobilize the power of the Holy See. This is a challenge for Ling Cang, who has no subordinates. Said it was very important.
After chatting for a few more words, Ling Cang saw off Krauchen and others, and then immediately rushed to Sikong You's place.
"Yeah." Sikong You was very rare, holding a laptop and checking something there: "Why are you here."
"I know the truth." Ling Cang sat down in front of Sikong You and said proudly: "My grandfather and father have indeed formed a military force."
"It seems that the Holy See has approached you. You also know about the existence of the Delta Armed Forces." Sikong You said calmly: "Not bad."
"It's a pity that I don't know much..." Ling Cang immediately became dejected again: "I only know that there is a First Division stationed in Sudan."
"There is a qualitative difference between knowing and not knowing. How much you know is a quantitative difference." After a pause, Sikong You said slowly: "Since you have achieved a qualitative breakthrough, I will give you a quantitative supplement. Some."
"You agreed to tell me something." Ling Cang felt very happy. He felt that this old immortal also had a cute side.
"Yes." Sikong You nodded slowly: "As you can expect, raising an army is very expensive. Although Delta is not short of money, your grandfather and father still adopted the method of supporting war with war. Except for the first division, which is stationed in Sudan all year round to protect the interests of Chenyang International, the other two divisions appear as mercenary companies and accept employment from employers to engage in various military operations. The second division is called the Giant Combat Security Company. .Deployed to Iraq. The 3rd Division is called Thunder Security Company. In Afghanistan."
In the eyes of many people, mercenaries are very mysterious. They deal with various equally mysterious forces and engage in some high-risk and high-income activities.
In fact, mercenaries are a very ancient profession that has existed since ancient times. Many times, they are not as scary as the outside world imagines. There are also many times, the dangers they face far exceed the outside world's speculation.
The mercenary group had a glorious period in history. The military forces of many countries relied heavily on mercenaries. However, after the end of World War II, with the formalization of military forces in various countries, their space for activities became smaller and smaller. Their scale and Development has also been restricted. It was not until the 21st century that the situation took a turn for the better.
Country M is engaged in military reforms. In local conflicts, it has begun to use more mercenaries and reduce the dispatch of its regular troops. This is mainly because if regular soldiers are killed in action, they will face a series of problems such as pensions and domestic political pressure. Use For mercenaries, as long as they pay, they don't have to worry about subsequent matters. If the regular army kills civilians, it will cause a lot of trouble. Mercenaries can let go. Once problems arise. M National Affairs | The government can shirk responsibility.
Under this general situation, mercenaries around the world began to develop rapidly. From the past underground to the ground, they were openly active in many wars. Moreover, they were formalized and corporateized, and many mercenary companies were created. Among them, the most The famous one is Black Water.
However, Ling Cang knew from Sikong You that being famous does not mean having strength. Blackwater Company is not only by no means the strongest mercenary company, but is actually just an empty shell created by Country M. Its function is to support the tank. In other words, the regular army and mercenaries are in trouble. The trouble is all blamed on Blackwater. This is why Blackwater has caused so many scandals in recent years, while other mercenary companies have rarely heard of their misdeeds.
"The government of country M needs someone to take all the blame. This can prove that only this company has problems. On the contrary, if everyone joins in the scandal, then people will question the overall strategy of country M as too dark." |Government is like this. No matter where you go, it is so complicated. Speaking of these things, Sikong You feels ashamed but also a little proud: "Heishui has shouldered a lot of crimes for Delta..."
"So that's what happened."
Sikong You told Ling Cang that in the past twenty years, Delta has maintained a very strong fighting force. Over the years, it has been continuously employed by the M government and has traveled to all corners of the world. It has received generous rewards. This is what is called "fighting to support war."
After the new president took office, Country M ostensibly withdrew its troops from Iraq, but in fact it left behind 100,000 mercenaries. Many people naively believed that Country M was helpless to deal with the situation in Iraq. In fact, the White House could still use mercenaries to launch military operations to complete its own mission. purpose.
According to Lingyang's previous plan, Chenyang International and Delta should continue to grow and develop. Anyway, they have various resources on hand. But after Lingyang disappeared, no one dared to make major decisions without authorization, so the development of the two stopped. remain at the original level.
"Speaking of which, in the past ten years alone, Delta's size has at least doubled..." Spreading his hands, Sikong You said helplessly: "But your father doesn't speak, and no one dares."
"I know." Ling Cang nodded and suddenly asked: "Delta has a reserve trainer. I understand what's going on. It is used to supplement troops and train new recruits. In addition, there is a special brigade. This is another What's going on?"
"The three divisions are just ordinary troops. Is that special brigade..." Sikong You looked at Ling Cang and replied slowly: "It is the Delta version of the 03 brigade. However, your father has long realized the importance of supernatural warfare. Sex. This team was established long before the 03 Brigade."
"Where now."
"Africa." Sikong You sighed softly. He became even more helpless: "I have nothing to do every day. I don't do any work."
"I understand. Everything in Chenyang International and Delta now remains the same as it was when my father disappeared."
"That's right."
"Since you said it, I can inherit whatever I investigate..." Ling Cang chuckled and told Si Kongyou categorically: "I request that Delta's combat division be doubled in size."
Sikong You was not surprised at all by this request: "Are you sure?"
Ling Cang nodded with certainty: "OK."
"No problem. I will deploy people to do it. Anyway, if there is a problem, it is your Ling family's own business."
"How could something go wrong?" Ling Cang was a little dissatisfied: "Could it be that the decision I made must be wrong."
"Everything must have a purpose." Sikong You immediately questioned: "Why do you need so many troops? It can't be to satisfy your vanity."
Ling Cang asked, "No way."
"Okay. But I have to tell you..." Sikong You snorted and said coldly: "If you don't have a clear plan and can't figure out what to do with the army, then once this huge force attracts attention, .will cause countless troubles."
"How do you know I didn't think it through." Ling Cang smiled again: "I want to use this army to control a country... maybe more."
"You plan to..."
"Make South Sudan the main base of Delta. Place all new troops there. Next, take South Sudan as the center and radiate to the entire African region."
"The ambition is quite big." Sikong You nodded slowly: "So, you decided to cooperate with the Holy See and support the independence of South Sudan."
"That's right. I've already thought about it. It feels wonderful to control a country. The benefits it can bring are countless."
"That's what it is." Sikong You reminded: "But you have to understand that we can accomplish this even if we rely on ourselves. If we cooperate with the Holy See, it means that someone will come to share the pie. Although they are only religious organizations. Pay attention to In terms of thoughts and beliefs, they will eventually pose constraints to us."
"I have already considered this..." Since Sikong raised this question, Ling Cang expressed all his thoughts: "The emergence of a new country in this world. Even if it is only a small country, it is not a small matter. If we operate it entirely by ourselves, it will not only expose us easily, but also easily attract criticism. If the Holy See can participate, it will not only serve as a cover, but also win more international support for this new country. You know, the Holy See It is very influential in Western society. And this influence exists publicly. It is not hidden underwater like Delta."
"That's the truth."
"Of course, the Holy See will definitely gain a place in this new country. But with the military and economic power in our hands, we can still lead everything. The two forces exist side by side. It will also give people a sense of democracy and will not be criticized. For dictatorship and dictatorship."
"This is also true. One of the important factors why countries support the secession of Sudan is that Sudan gives people the impression of a dictatorship."
"Then let's decide. I will reply to the Holy See."
"I will inform Delta to launch a full-scale operation in South Sudan." Si Kongyou's expression had always been serious. But now he laughed: "You made a right decision."
"Then you still question me."
"I just want to know whether your decision is the result of careful consideration." Sikong You typed on the keyboard a few times on his laptop, as if he was sending something: "Whether the result is correct is very important. Whether the thinking process is correct is equally important. .”
Anyone who understands the international situation knows that South Sudan's independence is the general trend and is a sure thing. Not only is the international community generally supportive, but the Sudanese government has also relented. This means that even if it supports the original government of Sudan, People in the government will eventually accept the reality of the emergence of a new country.
