It was only when the last militants left that Wang Dong got up. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

On the way down the mountain, Wang Dong was silent.

When he joined Zhang Zilan, who stayed at the bottom of the mountain and was in charge of answering, with Lei Dong, the sky was already dark.

"How?"

"As we guessed, we'll talk about it later."

Zhang Zilan didn't ask any more questions and started the off-road vehicle.

After they attacked the convoy of the arms dealers, the armed men rushed over, more than 200 people and dozens of vehicles.

Wang Dong did not dare to delay, and immediately asked Churkin to evacuate with the team.

It's just that Wang Dong stayed.

To be on the safe side, Zhang Zilan and Lei Dong stayed behind to pick them up, and the others returned to the valley where they were stationed.

That's a couple of hours.

The militants cleaned up the scene, took away some guns that were not completely damaged, and disposed of the bodies of the mercenaries incidentally.

Of course, it's all cremation.

Apparently, the militants were stationed in nearby towns and villages, and they had only set off after receiving the news, arriving too late.

If they had nothing to do with Jackson, the ghosts wouldn't believe it.

It is certain that the militants who had arrived from the south were buyers, and the convoy was destined for a village or a military camp in the south.

However, this is still not evidence.

In addition, Jackson is finished, and there will be no next trade.

Wang Dong was a little big, because he now had to consider a question, that is, whether to go to the southern villages and towns to catch a few jobs, preferably a leader.

The risk is certainly not small, but the gain is not too great.

Even if you catch a boss, what can you do?

Arms dealers like Jackson must have dealings with the top of the Houthis, so the militants responsible for receiving the arms may not be aware.

And even if it turns out that Jackson is supplying arms to the Houthis?

He is just a low-level arms dealer, and he is not the only one who smuggles arms into Yemen, but there are many others, and there is no way to connect him with several other arms companies.

If you don't deal with the militants, where do you go next?

Only one thing is certain, "Arms Tothra" must be secretly supporting the Houthis, providing them with all kinds of weapons and equipment.

In doing so, it is actually targeting Middle Eastern tycoons such as Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, Jordan and Oman.

To put it bluntly, if the civil war in Yemen ends quickly, to whom will Western arms companies sell weapons?

The poor clanging Houthis?

Or is it Iran, which is at odds with Western countries?

Obviously, only if the Yemeni civil war continues, Saudi Arabia and other local tyrants will take out real money to purchase weapons and equipment from Western arms companies.

"Madman, a few years ago, Huaxia sold drones to Saudi Arabia, do you remember?"

Lei Dong was slightly stunned, and then nodded.

"At the beginning, it was Muhammad or Nayef who decided to buy 'Pterodactyl' 2 from Huaxia?"

"It should have been Mohammed, who was already the Minister of Defence at the time. Nayef is the Minister of the Interior and does not have much say in the matter of importing weapons. Zhang Zilan said.

"That's a big order of tens of billions of dollars."

"Not only the purchase of more than a hundred UAVs, but also the entire production line, as well as the corresponding production license, in addition to the supporting ammunition."

"That's the same, it's all imported from China."

Zhang Zilan nodded slightly and said, "You mean, because of this incident, Muhammad offended the Western bloc and became a thorn in the side of the Western bloc?" ”

"If it weren't for the purchase from China, these tens of billions of dollars would have fallen into the hands of Western arms companies, right?"

"That's billions, even tens of billions of dollars." Redon said.

"There are also tens of thousands of jobs, and the corresponding tax revenue. To put it simply, Western arms companies and host governments have lost tens of billions of dollars as a result. ”

"Saudi Arabia is also buying arms from the United States and other Western countries. Last year, when the US president visited Saudi Arabia, King Salman promised to spend more than $100 billion on arms purchases from the United States in the future. Relatively speaking, Huaxia's arms orders in Saudi Arabia are actually only a small part. ”

"This is just the beginning."

Zhang Zilan's brows jumped a few times, and she looked back at Wang Dong.

Zhang Zilan knows the truth in this, and there is no need for Wang Dong to say more.

After the Third Middle East War, Saudi Arabia turned to the United States in an all-round way, adopted a new pro-American policy, and became the most important ally of the United States in the Gulf region.

In the decades since, Saudi Arabia's pro-American stance has not wavered.

During the Gulf War and the Iraq War, Saudi Arabia not only provided bases for the US military, but also actively participated in combat operations in order to consolidate relations with the United States.

The arms trade is also an important means of maintaining relations with major powers.

Although Saudi Arabia has also purchased arms from the United Kingdom, France, and China, and has also provided financial support for friendly countries such as Oman and the United Arab Emirates to buy arms from Russia, the purpose of this is not to break away from the United States, but to pay protection money to these major powers.

To put it simply, it is to develop relations with the five nuclear powers through the arms trade.

As for the extent to which it will develop, it will be determined by the strength of the nuclear powers.

The impact of China's rise is already being felt.

The emergence of Deputy Crown Prince Mohammed has made Saudi Arabia's foreign strategy even more uncertain.

If Mohammed were to sit on the throne in the future, would Saudi Arabia turn to China, or would it maintain a pro-American stance?

No one dared to pack a ticket.

Just Mohammed, the Minister of Defense, promoted and facilitated the 30 billion arms deal with China, and when he sits on the throne, will it be tens of billions?

What is only being bought now is a drone, what will be bought in the future?

You must know that when accompanying Salman to visit China, Mohammed showed a strong interest in China's fifth-generation stealth fighter.

If the United States refuses to sell F-35A fighter jets, Saudi Arabia is likely to go to China to find a source of goods.

Isn't it money, the last thing the local tyrants lack is money.

It is not uncommon for Saudi Arabia to spend tens of billions of dollars to buy dozens of fighter jets.

Anyway, it's slaughtered, who is the same slaughter?

From the standpoint of the US authorities, as well as the US arms companies, the enterprising Mohammed is obviously more unreliable than the conservative Nayef.

Nayef will not bring any changes to Saudi Arabia, but he will unswervingly follow the pro-American line.

Mohammed's quest for change may have made Saudi Arabia stronger, but it also brought with it the unknowns that would take the kingdom off course.

No matter how you look at it, Western interest groups cannot accept an enterprising king.

Getting rid of Mohammed would then be the only option to secure Nayef, and the conservative forces represented by Nayef, in the Saudi royal family.

Perhaps, this is the root cause of the terrorist attack on the military city of King Fahd.
