Chapter 296: The Andaman Islands I

This matter has to go back to more than two months ago, after receiving Wu Chen's instructions, Marcas immediately began a public relations operation, in the name of an international public relations company, he began to contact those high-ranking military generals and important figures in parliament, especially cabinet members. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Involved in such an action, saying that everything else is a waste of saliva, there is only one solution, that is, to smash it with dollars, and it will be easy to do things if you smash people, and Marcas is very generous, he plans to spend three or five billion dollars to make a good relationship, as long as he can take the Andaman Islands, this price is definitely worth it!

The Andaman Islands is not a small place, there are hundreds of thousands of people on it, and if you want to decide such a big thing, you must have the support of two forces, one is the prime minister and cabinet members, and the other is the military. As for the parliament, it is nothing more than a formality, and the largest ruling party and cabinet are sure to breathe out of one nostril, and the opposition parties in the parliament will not be able to make much of a storm.

Rainbow Shipping has a close relationship with the Indian Navy, and the aircraft carrier INS Novorossiysk, oh, now called INS Vikramaditya, is being refitted in Chittagong, so it is easier for the admirals to meet.

For India, the Andaman Islands is important, not important, and although the geographical location is strategically important, if you want to convert it into a naval base, the investment required is very staggering, and you can't think of it without billions of dollars.

The most troublesome thing is that there are still more than 10,000 primitive tribes living in the mountains and forests of the Andaman Islands, and the productivity has not even reached the stage of slash-and-burn farming, and they are simply a group of wild people, so many high-level people do not pay attention to this place.

At the beginning, when the generals heard the request of the Rainbow Shipping Company, they felt incredible, but when they heard that this matter could be rewarded amazingly, they immediately changed their tunes and said that they were willing to help.

When the Ministry of Defense discussed this matter, the most important agency, the Counsellors, had a very negative attitude, believing that most of the funds should be used to purchase new weapons and increase the combat effectiveness of the army, not to go to the Andaman Islands to engage in national defense construction, and the next expenditure should not allow this part of the plan.

The Chiefs of Staff Committee pointed out that if the Andaman Islands incident and the Rainbow Shipping Company tear their faces apart, it will have a fatal impact on the future military construction, and this company can influence the US and Russian militaries, and look at their weapons and equipment, which are the active equipment of the two major countries.

"It's crazy that Rainbow Shipping actually wants to buy the Andaman Islands, how dare they have such an idea, ridiculous!" Hearing the report of the Minister of the Navy for the first time, Prime Minister Atal thought that he had a hearing problem.

"Your Excellency, you don't know much about this shipping company, although it is ostensibly owned by a multinational group, but after investigation by the intelligence department, it is actually a subordinate industry of the Golden Triangle International Security Company, that is to say, they are an overseas legion with a US military background!" The Minister of Defense said lightly.

The name of the Golden Triangle International Security Company occupies an important position in the minds of the leaders of various countries, and immediately woke up Attar, I grass, it turned out to be this company, this matter is troublesome!

As everyone knows, the Golden Triangle International Security Company is purely an overseas army of the United States, and lo and behold, two of the five most advanced aircraft carriers in the United States are even nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, and the Americans have never sold aircraft carriers to the outside world.

Dozens of advanced warships decommissioned by the United States, among which the Ticonderoga-class and Burke-class destroyers are still in active service, and the Aegis combat system is installed, and this treatment is also the first, and the United States also does not sell active warships of this class to the outside world.

What's even more terrifying is that this company actually has American B-1B strategic bombers and Seawolf-class attack nuclear submarines, which are paralyzing, these are all cutting-edge weapons of the United States.

Hundreds of Abrams main battle tanks, thousands of Bradley infantry fighting vehicles and cavalry fighting vehicles, hundreds of Apache helicopter gunships, thousands of transport helicopters, more than 100 strategic transport aircraft, the facts are all there, do you need to talk about it?

What's even more terrifying is that this company has a very close relationship with Russia, Typhoon-class ballistic missile nuclear submarines, Kirov-class nuclear-powered missile cruisers, Glorious-class missile cruisers, Hyundai-class missile destroyers, as well as three strategic bombers and Su-27 fighters, a large number of Mi-24 armed helicopters and Mi-8, Mi-26 transport helicopters, such weapons and equipment, which are also very revealing, and the background is super tough!

"Your Excellency, we have worked closely with Rainbow Shipping to purchase one of their former Soviet aircraft carriers, which is currently undergoing intensive refits, and this company's Black Sea shipyard is currently building new aircraft carriers for Saudi Arabia and Kilo-class conventionally powered submarines for Huaxia and Vietnam."

"In order to achieve the strategic goal of controlling the Indian Ocean, the expansion of the Navy is imperative, and our domestic aircraft carrier program has also begun to be put on the agenda, and we may also need technical assistance from this company in the future, so we cannot ignore this requirement." said the Minister of the Navy.

It is an indisputable fact that the attitude of the defense ministers and the navy ministers has made it clear that the military supports the use of the Andaman Islands to establish good relations with the Golden Triangle International Security Company, and that it is important to draw closer ties with the United States.

But as the de facto controller of the government, Attar is very reluctant to let this happen during his tenure, which is tantamount to betraying the land of India and will be poked in the back! The idea of increasing military spending to expand the army is an important measure for him to get the support of the military, and if there is a conflict with the military over this matter, it will be an even more troublesome problem.

The Indian military dreams of building a powerful blue-water navy all the time, and in addition to the Indian Ocean, the Persian Gulf and the Red Sea are included in the sphere of influence, and this idea has been deeply rooted, and the Rainbow Shipping Company of the Golden Triangle International Security Company happens to be an indispensable key factor!

Dealing land is not an uncommon thing, but no one wants to make themselves guilty, so Attar and the cabinet held consecutive meetings to study the matter, and from the bottom of his heart, he hoped that the members would strongly oppose it and make the issue yellow.

However, what makes the prime minister strange is that there is no clear opposition to this, and the occasional few voices are also stammered by others.

India is not afraid of the Golden Triangle International Security Company, but is it the United States and Russia that will be offended? If you offend these two countries, where can you buy high-end weapons and equipment, and how can the combat effectiveness of the army be improved?
