Volume 5 Chapter 479 The Suspicion Behind the Escort in the Gulf of Aden

readx;

The Angolan military delegation's visit to Somalia was not deliberately kept secret, and the news spread almost at noon that day. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Not to mention the intelligence agencies of some countries in Somalia, even after the formation of the New Deal, the ambassadors who re-exchanged ambassadors have their own channels to obtain this news.

Although Somalia is a small and inconspicuous country in Africa, several disturbances since last year have raised the level of attention of many countries to Somalia. Countries with traditional interests in Somalia, such as the United Kingdom, countries that have suffered several setbacks in Somalia, such as the United States, and countries with interests in Somalia, such as Huaxia, have all taken this news seriously.

As a party with a 'close' relationship with Li Mo, the Chinese side naturally contacted Li Mo first to find out the inside story of Angola's visit to Somalia. After all, Angola is also one of the countries with which China has close ties in Africa.

Li Mo knew that this matter could not be kept secret, so he directly informed Lei Zhen, who inquired about the purpose of the Angolan military, and as for what the Huaxia side would do, it was not his concern.

"Boss, it seems that the Angolan military is still very satisfied with the Lion King 2 infantry fighting vehicle, especially the price of the combat vehicle, which is only 1.05 million US dollars, which is the cheapest among the combat vehicles of the same level in the world. With Angola's financial situation, I'm afraid it won't take a fancy to Lion King 2! After sending off the Angolan military delegation, the experts and others came to the office belonging to Li Mo in the industrial park, and the experts who spoke just now were the experts.

"Hehe, what we want is for them to take a fancy and purchase. How else to make money? By the way, experts, can we keep up with our current production capacity? And how much does such a combat vehicle cost? "Although the Lion King 2 infantry fighting vehicle has undergone a series of verification tests, it has not immediately reequipped the troops. This is mainly due to the lack of production capacity in the industrial park, and the verification tests carried out before have not ended, and now the 1st Mechanized Infantry Brigade has several Lion 2 infantry fighting vehicles, which will be used for regular training to check for other problems with the Lion 2 infantry fighting vehicles.

The expert paused when he heard this, and said, "Now our industrial park can complete 30% of the Lion King infantry fighting vehicles produced by itself, and the rest still need to be imported." However, the parts that need to be imported are mainly electronic components and some special metal materials, as long as the materials can be met, the industrial park can produce combat vehicles at a rate of 2 days. This is still built on one production line, and if we can add one more production line, this value can be doubled to the rate of one a day! ”

Li Mo and the others were overjoyed when they heard this, the production speed of one car in two days is really fast, 15 vehicles can be produced in a month, and 180 vehicles can be produced in a year, which can almost reequip four brigades. However, a few people also know that this is based on the 30% self-produced basis that experts say, because 70% of the components are directly purchased, so there is such a fast speed, otherwise it will be slower.

"The production line is not in a hurry for the time being, and we will wait for the possible orders of the Angolan military to be followed." Li Mo said with a smile, "There is one more thing you should know, He Ping and they are coming back soon, and when they come back, it will be the time when the organization soars into the sky!" ”

He Ping is the leader of the comet group sent to Europe to study in 04, and the 32 members of the comet team who have developed Li Mo's spiritual power have completed the study that others can only complete in a few years after more than two years of study. And even if it takes a few years for others to finish high school and college, the knowledge they can gain is still very different from that of these comet group members. As early as three months ago, He Ping sent back a message through a secret channel that each of them had found an internship job after studying; The companies that entered were all the world's leading companies in some fields according to the survey and statistics of Wang Ning's intelligence department. Although they will not be able to get in touch with the core areas of these companies such as research laboratories for three months, with their knowledge and ability, as long as they show a little bit of conspicuousness, they will soon be valued by these companies. From He Ping's later report, he also told about this, and now 7 of the 32 members of the comet team have initially come into contact with the core of the internship company. For example, He Ping, who studied in the Department of Aeronautics at the University of Toulouse in France, has now joined Dassault Systèmes, a French group. Dassault Systèmes' CATIA software is a leader in design and engineering software, recognized as the best software for complex designs and the first choice for complex products such as body design and aircraft fuselage design. Although He Ping has only joined one of the research and development groups now, he can be regarded as entering the core field. With his ability to learn, he may be able to bring him enough creativity and experience here.

In addition to He Ping's first batch of 32 members of the comet group, the last 17 members of the Young Eagle Rent in September last year also went abroad, and they will follow the old path of He Ping's group of members, study-practice-experience, and only after gaining enough experience will they return to the organization to serve the organization.

It can be said that these 49 people are the core of the future development of the Xingchen organization. Only they can make the Star Organization an arms organization with independent research and development capabilities.

The fact that the first group of 32 will now return to Somalia by one year at the latest, is a big deal for the organization. Several of the people here are high-level members of the organization, and everyone knows the usefulness of the comet group to the organization, and they all look happy.

"It's still the boss who is far-sighted, and he knew He Ping's development direction from the beginning. Unlike some people, they are still thinking about expanding the size of the Meteor Commando! At this moment, the mouse glanced at Luo Xiang out of the corner of his eye, and said in a non-yin and non-yang manner. This was naturally Luo Xiang's proposal last time that he wanted to train the 17 young eagle members sent out by the second batch to become members of the Meteor Commando.

"Brother Mouse, where did I offend you? It's been almost a year since this happened, and you still remember it? Luo Xiang said with an angry face. A very aggrieved expression naturally caused others to laugh.

Li Mo was also very satisfied with this very peaceful and intimate relationship between his subordinates, although he was a superior person, he knew the art of balance. But he didn't want his men to be lifeless and focused on their own tasks, and the necessary friendship between them was still needed.

"The Angolan military is now relying on Hussein to make a move, and you can do more work, experts. And with Angola's 'precedent', I think that we, especially the Ministry of Trade, can change our goals in the future and put them on those countries that are not strong militarily. Of the more than 50 countries in Africa, except for a few military powers, other countries still have a very good market. Our tanks are also not very bad, and they are cheap. Moreover, as long as we purchase our chariots, we don't have to pay cash directly, we can use other things to offset it, mineral resources or something, gold and diamonds. I think it's still very attractive to countries that are financially struggling. ”

"Specialists, your production committee, in addition to the production of combat vehicles, can do some research on other weapons. We don't want to be able to imitate it, but to do some preliminary preparations, and wait for the comet group to come back, and then set up a special research and development department. After Li Mo gave a series of tasks to several people, he left the industrial park and returned to the Camel Mountain base overnight.

On this day, Chairman Li, who was teasing his son Li Chen, who had just completed the moon, at home, received information from Wang Ning, and the first escort formation in the Gulf of Aden was officially formed. All the warships dispatched by the five permanent members of the Security Council will arrive in the waters of the Gulf of Aden in half a month to begin carrying out maritime escort operations. A total of 13 warships, including 1 missile cruiser and four missile destroyers, as well as other supply ships, became the first combined naval fleet to escort ships in the Gulf of Aden and combat piracy.

Xiao Li Chen didn't know why this villain who grabbed milk and ate with himself didn't make a fuss, but it didn't prevent him from stretching out his pink little hand to scratch this villain.

Liu Qingyue, who was on the side, found that Li Mo seemed to be thinking about things at this time, and hurriedly picked up his son who was holding Li Mo on his lap; She was not afraid that her son would disrupt Li Mo's thinking, but that Li Mo would unconsciously throw her son down while thinking.

In Li Mo's mind, he was really thinking about things now. This incident is also related to the escort in the Gulf of Aden reported by Wang Ning. In his memory, the first escort formations in the Gulf of Aden were formed only in 08, that is, two years later. Now, because of the instigation of the wings of butterflies, history has begun to change. Now that the new Somali Deal has been put in place, the lives of the people in the country have not improved, but at least they no longer face the threat of war. Somalia has always been an agrarian country, unlike some African countries, which have abundant precipitation and a humid climate. Somalia has a well-developed agriculture and livestock sector. Millions of livestock are exported each year. Since the establishment of the New Axe, most of the grain producing areas and grain reserves that were originally controlled by various armed forces have been used by the Axe to help people who are unable to live due to war and other reasons. Although this will not completely solve the problem of food and clothing for the people, it has made Somalia much more stable than it has been in history. At this time, the famous Somali pirates of later generations were not large in number, and their methods of crime were not as rampant as those of later generations. Of course, the Gulf of Aden is connected to the mouth of the Red Sea and is an important sea communication artery. It's easy to magnify the slightest problem. But why was it that pirates, who were much smaller than later generations, were taken seriously by the United Nations and other countries in this life, and sent their fleets to carry out armed escort missions two years in advance?

Li Mo felt that this was not because of the proposal of the United States and Yuben, as the high-level rumors of various countries said. There must be other reasons for this. He thought of an old map that Wang Ning and Luo Xiang had taken out from the safe of the British bank and some materials remarked by President Egall. Although he had not yet figured out what exactly the map meant, from Egal's notes, it was not a treasure map, not exactly a treasure map from the Second World War period, as he had previously suspected. It seems to be a bigger secret, but in Egall's few notes, there is no detailed explanation of what exactly the location marked on the map is. He vaguely felt in his heart that that map had something to do with the escort formation this time.
