"Minister Peng, ...... you?" the staff on duty didn't understand what Peng Guochen meant just now.

Peng Guochen's eyes were bloodshot and he looked a little tired, he waved his hand and said, "You do your own, I'll just watch from the sidelines!"

With that, he found a chair and sat down, staring thoughtfully at the live video on the big screen.

In fact, Peng Guochen has seen the building in the video more than once before. He even read a special analysis report, and he basically knew everything about the internal environment, layout, and security of the building.

Uncle LD has been hiding in Pakistan for many years, and Pakistan's military intelligence department has kept him under close surveillance. As a traditional ally of Pakistan and the Railway, China has also received a lot of relevant information from Pakistan.

And Peng Guochen also believes that Lao Mei also knows the specific hiding place of Uncle LD for a long time, as for weishenme, he has not done it, and the problem of timing is the same.

A few years ago, when the US military first entered Central Asia, it caused a strong backlash from China, Russia, and other powerful countries, and many experts on international issues believed that the establishment of a military base in Afghanistan by the US military was a big nail in the heart of China and Russia.

In the event of an accident in the future, the existence of these bases will have a major impact on the military deployment of China, Russia and other countries.

However, at that time, in the name of the war on terror, no one could say much.

In recent years, the United States has been strengthening its military presence in Central Asia and sparing no effort to expand the Bagram Air Base in Afghanistan.

Previously, the Bagram base in Afghanistan had three large hangars, one tower and many barracks warehouses, five large aprons and 110 cement bunkers, all of which were built by the former Soviet Union. But after years of warlord fighting in Afghanistan, these buildings have been almost destroyed.

Therefore, if the US military wants to be stationed here for a long time, the base must be repaired and expanded.

Beginning in mid-March 2002, the U.S. military used a large number of C-17 "Global Overlord" transport aircraft to bring in heavy construction equipment and began to repair and rebuild Bagram, mainly by building some new bunkers, barracks and fortifications.

In addition, the C-17 has brought a large number of helicopters, including the CH-47 Chinook, AH-64 Apache, AH-1 Cobra and UH-60 Black Hawk.

The expanded Bagram Air Base will be able to accommodate dozens of modern warplanes. On weekdays, the base is stationed with various types of fighters, including A-10 attack planes, F-16 fighters, F-15E fighters, AH-64 helicopter gunships, C-17 transport planes, and "Predator" unmanned reconnaissance planes.

Once needed. These fighters are ready to take to the skies at any time.

In addition, it was reported not so long ago by the American website "Strategic Events". The U.S. Air Force is considering using the F-22, the most advanced stealth fighter, in Afghanistan for ground combat.

In July last year, the F-22 conducted the first test launch of a new precision-guided weapon, the "Small Diameter Bomb". The U.S. Air Force wants to send the F-22, which lacks air combat opportunities, to Afghanistan to test and demonstrate its powerful ground attack capabilities.

Analysts believe that once the F-22 goes to Afghanistan to fight, it is likely to be stationed at Bagram Air Base. Each F-22 can carry 8 "small diameter bombs". Capable of attacking multiple ground targets.

But. The greatest power of the Bagram base is that it can take off and land any large bomber of the US military. Including B-52H, B-1B and B-2.

These three long-range bombers all have a range of about 10,000 kilometers and can carry out both conventional warfare and strategic nuclear strike missions.

With the presence of the Bagram base. As a result, the U.S. strategic deterrence capability against southern Russia, China's western industrial belt, and the northern Indian Ocean has skyrocketed.

Of course, these are just precautionary measures, and more importantly, the United States also has some extremely important practical interests in the Afghan region.

In fact, since the occupation of Afghanistan by US-led NATO forces, Afghanistan's production has increased exponentially, and now accounts for 90% of the total production of DU.

And before the arrival of NATO troops, the production of dubbin there had fallen to an all-time low thanks to the efforts of the Taliban, who strictly believed in the Koran. This fact is at great distance from American propaganda. With the Americans, the Taliban have always been the main culprits in the cultivation of opium by Afghans.

According to a United Nations report, production of DU products in Afghanistan has increased 44-fold since NATO forces launched Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan in 2001.

According to the United Nations Office Against Opium and Crime, in 2001, under the Taliban regime, only 185 tons of opium were produced in Afghanistan.

In 2002, after the United States "settled", opium production in Afghanistan soared to 3,400 tons.

In 2003, 3,600 tons of opium were produced in Afghanistan, accounting for two-thirds of Shijie opium production, with a sown area of 80,000 hectares, and poppy was cultivated in 28 of the country's 31 provinces, with 1.7 million people participating in the cultivation of opium.

The annual profit from the cultivation of opium and the production of opium is estimated at more than $1 billion, which is equivalent to one quarter of Afghanistan's national revenue.

In the past, the price of opium in Afghanistan was not high, about $30 per kilogram. After the Taliban regime banned opium cultivation, the price of opium soared to $750 per kilogram, a 24-fold increase.

In recent years, newspapers in the United States have condemned the vanished Taliban Islamic regime, but there is no mention of the fact that the Taliban regime, in cooperation with the United Nations, succeeded in banning the cultivation of opium-producing poppy in 2000.

In fact, it was precisely after the US military operation in Afghanistan and the fall of the Taliban regime that the cultivation of poppy increased significantly. In October-December 2001, farmers in Afghanistan resumed large-scale cultivation of poppys. The success of the Afghan government in banning the DU product in 2000 was noted at the United Nations General Assembly in October 2001.

Not only that, but the United States has been blocking other countries' proposals and actions to ban DU products in Afghanistan.

For example, due to Russia's close proximity to Afghanistan and the lax management of the Central Asian customs system, it has been suffering from Afghan DU, so Moscow has proposed several strikes on Afghan DU production, but these proposals have been rejected by the United States.

Russian Ambassador to Kabul Avetishan said in an interview that the United States has always adhered to the position of not eliminating the Afghan dugin cultivation areas, under the pretext that Afghan civilians will be greatly affected as a result.

It's simply a mockery of people's IQ.

Everyone knows that now Afghanistan has become the largest poppy planting area on Shijie, and the US military stationed in Afghanistan is precisely the largest trader of DU products, and the use of military aircraft to sell DU has almost become an open secret.

Perhaps for the U.S. military, the huge profits from the trade in DU products are the most important practical benefits.

Peng Guochen turned his head, beckoned to the confidential secretary behind him, and then whispered a few words to him.

The confidential secretary nodded, and hurried out.

At this time, Peng Guochen shifted his focus to the big screen again.

The Americans finally can't help but want to do something to Uncle LD, but it will not have a big impact on the current international situation, at most it will be a stir in the media for a while, and it will soon be silent.

Uncle LD is just a symbol, what matters is the impact on the domestic situation in the United States.

As long as he dies during President Oku's tenure, there will be basically no suspense in next year's presidential election.

Of course, these need to be considered by higher-level figures, and Peng Guochen is now focusing on these three live video pictures on the big screen.

The Strategic Fool Bureau has once again demonstrated its incredible capabilities.

Four stealth helicopters of the US military were monitored from Bagram to Abbottabad.

And the other party obviously uses extremely advanced micro drones and full-color night vision devices, not only keeping up with the flight speed of the stealth Black Hawk throughout the whole process, but also the picture effect is also very good, which is almost as good as a blockbuster movie.
