Chapter 897: Rules and Bottom Line

In fact, it is not that the US presidential administration and the Department of Defense are incompetent, suppressing mercenaries in order to maintain Europe, and drawing a circle makes the two families uncomfortable fighting inside. It's that everyone stands at different angles, and their lines of sight are naturally different, and the judgments they make are very different from the facts, which is not a strange thing, one is a traditional ally, and the other is an overseas force that has been painstakingly cultivated, and they actually join forces to fool the boss, who would have thought of this?

The Ministry of Defense's worries are not unreasonable, if it is a confrontation in the mode of all-out war, the mercenary corps has a congenital disadvantage, and if the United States really wants to acquiesce in it, or will the two not help, the spiritual leader Wu Chen is determined to give it a go, the current military strength of European countries will definitely not be able to withstand the attack of the mercenary corps, and the gap in strength is too great.

European countries have money and strong war capital, but the problem is that they really don't have that much time to arm themselves, and most of them are busy reducing their armies and are used to living in peace. A strong army does not depend on the number of troops, the tactics of crowds have long been outdated, and the application of sophisticated weapons is an important condition for victory.

To say that Europe's weapons and equipment also belong to the world's advanced ranks, and the gold content of science and technology is also very high, but it depends on who the opponent is, this is not those African countries but mercenaries, and it is the army of the former Soviet Union and the United States with the most advanced weapons and equipment.

The Navy's thirteen aircraft carrier battle groups and more than 500 strategic bombers alone are the striking forces that make European countries desperate, not to mention the demonic existence of stealth strategic bombers and fifth-generation fighters, especially arsenal ships, which only need one to paralyze the normal operation of a country, and the lethality of 500 cruise missiles is really terrifying.

Since the end of the Second World War, the people's disgust with war in European countries has reached its peak, and military service is a big problem, and if the mercenaries directly launch precision strikes and large-scale bombing on the homeland, the achievements of the construction of various countries after World War II will be wiped out in a short time, which is unacceptable to the people.

Similarly, the US government will not allow mercenaries to attack the mainland of European countries, this is a matter of principle, let the mercenaries do their best to beat Europe to pieces, and even the interests of the United States will be damaged, how can this NATO boss be?

The rules of the game are that the two sides can only go to war far away from Europe and the Golden Triangle Federation, or in other words, they can only fight in African countries such as the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and if European countries attack the Golden Triangle Federation, the US government will also not accept it.

"Unconsciously, a small mercenary organization has grown to this point in just eight years, and it can threaten the security of a group of old capitalist countries.

"The strategy of the mercenary corps and the Golden Triangle Federation, the government and the military should make appropriate changes in the future, and they can no longer be viewed with the status of mercenary organizations, facts have proved that the mercenary industry has great potential, and the main body in the future war may be mercenaries, and the Golden Triangle Federation must be regarded as an ally of the United States."

"The current outcome of the negotiations between USAID and the federal government of the Golden Triangle is critical to our future cooperation. In order to win over the mercenaries, Russia gave the South Kuril Islands as a gift to the Golden Triangle Federation, and the US government cannot be too stingy, in any case, the United States is much stronger than Russia. Mr. President said.

With the rapid rise of mercenary corps, many military powers in the world are considering that the main force of combat in future wars will be mercenaries, and their own country's army will take a back seat. Why? Because mercenaries are the easiest to use, they can negotiate the price, and they don't have to worry about the rest.

Battles, logistical supplies and aftermath in the course of the mission, etc., are the problems of the mercenary organization itself, and the entrusting party only needs to pay once and wait for the result. If the domestic army is used, the proportion of expenditure will be ten or even a hundred times, it is necessary to maintain an elite and modern army, but it is not necessary to maintain such a large number, wouldn't it be better to save more money to develop the economy?

Of course, this process is gradual, and at the moment it can only be said that there is such a trend, mercenaries can never replace the regular army, their only belief is money, regardless of the national problem, under what circumstances to use, is the subject of discussion among military experts.

"Mr. President, after negotiations with the representative of the Federal Government of the Golden Triangle, Mr. Marcas, the Agency for International Development has preliminarily agreed to provide $20 billion worth of wheat, corn, soybeans and other grains, $10 billion worth of agricultural support funds, and $5 billion worth of agricultural machinery within five years."

"Because the domestic procurement is 30 percent lower than the market price, we have donated 10.5 billion US dollars worth of medical equipment and medicines, and the Golden Triangle Federation will use all this aid to protect the people's livelihood in African countries." said the senior adviser to the presidential office.

"It seems that in order to maintain its influence and voice in Africa, the mercenaries have reached the point where they will do whatever it takes, and the conditions they offer are all for the long-term interests of Africa, but fortunately, the strategic focus of the US government is the Asia-Pacific region and Europe, otherwise we will also have a conflict."

"I think it's a very good thing that the Golden Triangle Federation uses this U.S. aid in the form of agricultural development and health care in Africa, because the U.S. government will also show itself as a great power, and it will be easy for Congress to pass it."

"Immediately report the results of this meeting to the Congress, and ask them to deliberate this afternoon, and in the evening Wu Beixin, the federal chief executive of the Golden Triangle, will hold a grand state banquet to welcome the leaders of various countries to participate in tomorrow's founding ceremony, and there will be a thank-you speech at that time, and we cannot lag behind Russia." Mr. President said.

As for the meeting between the Japanese prime minister and the British prime minister, the three people present all knew very well that the Japanese prime minister had come for the Aegis combat system of the Kongo-class missile destroyer, and although this system had two major accidents in Japan in a row, one almost sank the USS Washington nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, and the other killed more than 100 generals of the mercenary regiment to the bones, but the Japanese navy had no choice, and who let their own combat system be delayed in developing it?

It is not difficult to guess the purpose of the British Prime Minister's visit, or because of the Falklands incident, he is worried that Argentina will start a second war and wants to get the support of the US government. But he was doomed to be disappointed on this issue, and the attitude of the US government was very simple, not to interfere in the territorial disputes between the two sides, and even complained that the British government was swollen and fat.

Isn't it enough to spend billions of dollars and more than 10,000 kilometers to defend a small island after giving Argentina that island? Intervening in this kind of thing can easily cause international public opinion to condemn, and the South American countries overwhelmingly support Argentina and offend so many countries that the US government will not be fooled!
