"Boss, Colonel Dora Tabadi, Iran's military attache in Somalia, is here and asks for your reception!" Lieutenant Colonel An Li, the enchanting secretary who did not lose her sassy surname, walked into Li Mo's office and reported. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Li Mo was approving an application for the expansion of three military airports, and when he heard the fox's words, he couldn't help but raise his head and ask in surprise, "Iranian military attaché?" What is he here for? ”

The military attachés of various countries in Somalia generally have official or private affairs, such as the Somali Defence Force's department in charge of foreign affairs. At present, the department responsible for foreign affairs in Somalia is a Foreign Affairs Administration under the General Staff. You don't have to report to yourself at all. This has already crossed several levels of 'debriefing'.

"Let him in!" Although Li Mo does not know the purpose of this Colonel Doratabadi here, but now that the relationship between Somalia and Iran is in the honeymoon period, Li Mo will not fail to give Iran face.

Soon, a man in military uniform in his forties walked in after the fox, and Li Mo's eyes couldn't help but glance.

When the Iranian military attache in Somalia walked into the office, there was a hint of respect on his face, but Li Mo felt that this trace of respect was too obvious.

After saluting each other, Colonel Doratabadi finally made clear his intentions, and the Iranian political axe hopes to hold a joint small-scale exercise with Somalia in the near future. The purpose is to support the second multi-party talks on the 'Quad nuclear issue' to be held in Riyadh.

Li Moding glanced at the solemn-looking colonel, but in his heart he was speculating about the true purpose of the Iranian political axe. Is there any other purpose for building momentum for the quad representatives at the second meeting in Riyadh? Li Mo quickly thought of Luo Xiang, who was preparing for the joint exercises of Liso's special forces, and the Libyan military.

"Well, I agree with your proposal. However, I don't think the scale of this joint exercise should be too large, and the location of the exercise should not be in the Persian Gulf. Although Li Mo did not know the reason for Iran's move, he was very interested in this joint exercise, and agreed after a little thought.

"General Lee, our two sides have the same opinion. They all believe that at this time, although it is necessary to give some solidarity to the Riyadh talks, it cannot arouse serious vigilance among all countries. Therefore, it is appropriate to limit the scale of the exercise to a certain extent. If your country agrees to hold a small-scale joint exercise, we would like to choose somewhere in the Arabian Sea or the Gulf of Aden. Colonel Doratabadi suggested with some excitement.

Li Mo's brow furrowed slightly, and he didn't agree with the location chosen by Colonel Doratabadi. Both of these places are sensitive areas, and although they are not as good as the Persian Gulf, they are not much different. In particular, the Gulf of Aden is home to a large number of warships and a small sea area, so it is easy to cause surprises when holding a joint exercise here.

Moreover, Li Mo did not understand Colonel Doratabadi's excited look, as if the other party was a little impatient for the joint exercise.

Coughing quietly, Li Mo smiled and said, "Colonel Dora Tabadi, I think that if we build momentum for the Riyadh talks, we can upgrade the Sowe joint exercise to a multinational joint exercise." It just so happened that two days ago, the commander of the Libyan special forces, Lieutenant Colonel Saif Saif, proposed to hold a joint anti-terrorist exercise with our special forces, and our political axe has agreed. I think it would be better to identify the exercise as special forces. In this way, the scale is easy to control, and the impact is strong enough. ”

Dora Tabadi was only hesitant and intrigued by Li Mo's proposal. He also said that he would immediately report to China and wait for domestic approval.

The two discussed the 'joint anti-terrorism exercise' for a while, and Doratabadi hurriedly left the Ministry of National Defense building.

That night, Luo Xiang, the commander of the Somali special forces of the Third OECD member states in Somalia, and the commander of the Libyan special forces, Lieutenant Colonel Said, held a meeting in a secret agency belonging to the military. The content of the talks was about Li Mo's proposal to hold a 'five-nation anti-terrorism joint exercise'.

Because Iran, North Korea, Syria and Libya have agreed to the 'five-nation special forces joint exercise', all that remains is for the representatives of the five countries to discuss the time, place and other details of the exercise.

The exercise, code-named 'Light of Peace', took part in the exercise with five countries: Somalia, Iran, North Korea, Syria and Libya. The training is conducted by special forces of each country, with each country contributing between 20 and 30 personnel.

A joint commander of the exercise, composed of the top military commanders of the five countries participating in the exercise, will be responsible for the planning, deployment and operational specifics of the entire exercise.

In addition to conventional weapons, countries can send technical weapons, including landing craft and helicopters.

The exercise was confirmed to be July 1 and the assembly was held on June 15 off the coast of northeastern Somalia.

The exercise consisted of simultaneous sorties from the land, sea and air forces to rescue cargo ships and hostages hijacked by pirates.

……

As the details were discussed, three hours had passed. A plan for a five-nation joint counter-terrorism exercise, codenamed 'Light of Peace,' was confirmed. Of course, this is still an outline, and the specific details will be discussed after the exercise troops sent by the four countries arrive in Somalia and form a joint command.

On 15 June 2007, all the troops participating in the 'Light of Peace' exercise from the five countries arrived in Bossaso, the capital of Somalia's Bari region, and the deputy commander-in-chief of the Somali Defence Forces personally arrived here to welcome and make an important speech to the 200 officers and soldiers of the five countries.

It was at this time that the outside world learned that the five countries were quietly going to hold a multinational joint anti-terrorism exercise in Somalia.

For a time, the eyes of the international community were once again focused on the Somali peninsula.

In the international public opinion, it has been analyzed that the purpose of this joint exercise is to hold 'multi-party talks' in Riyadh. But Libya's participation has made many people wonder and at the same time speculate about whether Libya intends to join the Third OECD.

The five-nation joint anti-terrorism exercise is a very important event for the political axes of various countries in the world. Especially the United States. All of them found that the five countries in the 'five-nation anti-terrorism joint exercise' had one thing in common, that is, they were 'unfriendly' to the US political axe, or in other words, in the face of US hegemonism, they did not choose to bow their heads and compromise, but planned to join forces and tie up their easily broken chopsticks to enhance their ability to resist pressure.

Although the US political axe wants to sabotage this five-nation joint exercise, counter-terrorism is a clarion call that the United States has been 'blowing propaganda' in the international community, with an obvious offensive purpose. Among the five countries involved, except for the DPRK, the other four countries have been accused by the US political axe of providing assistance to terrorist organizations, so this time the five countries openly sang the anti-terrorism song, and the US political axe naturally has no reason to oppose it, otherwise it will be a slap in the face.

What makes people laugh the most is that while vigilantly guarding against the increasingly close cooperation between the five countries and the four countries, the US political axe also pinched its nose to express its appreciation and congratulations on the actions of the five political axes in counter-terrorism. Perhaps to complain that the United States was on an informal occasion, and some officials still expressed some caution about the five countries holding a show near the "cramped, civilian-filled transportation arteries," and some hawks even expressed in a "sympathetic" and mocking tone whether the special forces exercises of the five countries would bring safety problems to the ships of various countries passing through the sea. In short, the meaning of the words is to express doubts about the capability of the five-nation exercise, that is, the US team sometimes has some accidents during the exercise, and the armed forces of the five countries are obviously inferior to the US team, and if there are some 'unexpected accidents' during the exercise, the consequences will be serious.

None of the officers and men of the five countries participating in the exercise reacted to this. On the second day after arriving in Somalia, the officers and men participating in the exercise began some adaptation training in the mountainous areas of northeastern Somalia.

……

In a private room at the Arab Hotel, a 'family dinner' is being held. The families of Zhang Lixia's four daughters and Li Mo's family all gathered together.

"Two uncles, congratulations on joining forces and taking your career to the next level." Li Mo picked up his wine glass and looked at Tian Jianming and Zhang Zuoshan with a smile and said.

Tian Jianming went back last time to sell most of the domestic industry, leaving only one office in China. I returned to Somalia with my funds, intending to establish myself here. Later, after Zhang Zuoshan inspected the Somali market, under the persuasion of Li Mo, he also planned to shift the focus of his career to Somalia. Although the people here are not familiar with the place, they are full of business opportunities. In addition, the son-in-law's power here is enough to create an excellent external environment for them.

Li Mo's support is equivalent to the support of the political axe policy. Although Somalia is weak and the people are poor, it is still enough to support the two of them. As the Somali economy recovers, the sooner you enter this almost empty market, the greater the benefits.

Tian Jianming and Zhang Zuoshan have a combined net worth of $3 million, and they can also engage in many industries in Somalia. However, with Li Mo's support, the two still chose heavy industry and started a steel enterprise integrating mining and smelting. Three million dollars in the steel industry is certainly not enough, Li Mo also invested 50 million dollars in this company, only half of the shares. The rest is divided equally between the two.

Iron and steel enterprises with a total investment of more than 50 million US dollars are also very small. However, the company has two small iron mines to provide ore, and the steel produced by Li Mo has also been contracted by Li Mo's Xingchen Company. The real input is also the machinery and equipment, and the labor. It's a sure-fire deal.

"Haha, Xiao Mo said it well, come on...... Let's do one together. Zhang Zuoshan smiled heartily, among these elders, he was the most optimistic about Li Mo, and he had the best attitude towards Li Mo.

After three rounds of drinking, Li Mo provoked the topic again, "Uncle Tian and Uncle Zhang already have a steel factory, Uncle Liu and Uncle Cheng, haven't you decided yet?" ”

Zhang Zuoshan and Tian Jianming are businessmen who attach more importance to profits. Coming to Somalia to develop is obviously much more advantageous than developing in China. However, Cheng Qingfeng and Liu Zhengdong are officials, and they can't make up their minds for a long time. However, Li Mo knows that with the two of them being Li Mo's 'father-in-law', there will definitely not be much development in the officialdom of Huaxia. Another point is that both of them are in their forties, and now they are also department-level cadres. Even without the existence of Li Mo, it is difficult to say whether the two of them can cross the threshold of the hall level.
