Chapter 950: Saudi Arabia's Choice

PS: The new book has forty or fifty thousand words, and it is also on the list, I hope you can vote for the new book "The Legend of the Last Days"

-- The following text--

James is very fast, after all, he is also very rigorously trained, and the strategy is very correct.

Hiding himself behind Omar, when he was about to escape, he chose not to kill the other party, but chose to kill Omar knowing the gap.

Because as long as Omar is dead, there will be a drama on the NATO side, because then the NATO side can support another vice president of Djibouti and then blame Somalia for the crime of killing Omar.

In this way, he can continue to complete the task, which is a good idea, and it is not very difficult to execute.

But he thought about one thing wrong, and that was to underestimate the horror of his opponent, and the person he faced could not give him a chance to kill Omar.

So, he was doomed to tragedy, the gunshot thought, and just as the muscles of his fingers were about to pull the trigger, the bullet was already aimed at Omar's temple.

The other naturally hit the thigh that was about to jump at the same time, making his whole body limp.

He also slumped on the ground when the pistol landed, as his thigh had been blasted open.

However, Omar also had a small burn on his face, which was the result of the bullet sticking to his skin.

Compared to being alive, this little burn doesn't matter at all.

Inside the control platform, Li Lan controlled the overlord with a smile and put away his two guns. He walked up to Omar and asked, "Are you alright?" ”

Omar's soul has just returned. The scene just now also scared him half to death. If it weren't for the fact that his heart was okay and his blood pressure wasn't very high, something might have happened.

Hearing the man speak fluent Somali, he shook his head and said, "Thank you for the rescue, I'm fine." ”

The overlord nodded, walked up to James, who was leaning on the corner and looking at him resentfully, and said, "If you obediently lay down your arms, you won't end up like this." ”

"Kill if you want to. I don't know anything. James endured the sharp pain in his hands and thighs and said.

"A few days ago, there was a person who handed over Paul who was also so tough with you, and as a result, he told us all the valuable information of MI5, and I hope you can too." The overlord said lightly.

"Paul......" James' eyes flickered, and a flash of despair flashed across his face.

At this time, several men in black walked in outside the door. Standing respectfully by the overlord's side, he reported: "The CIA people have all been cleaned up, and this place has been completely controlled." ”

"Good. Take this guy away, don't get killed, I'm sure of our new friend. "Speaking of which. The overlord looked at Omar and said, "Mr. Omar, you must want to kill him personally." ”

"Thank you." Omar nodded.

Soon. Desperate, James was dragged away like a dead dog, along with corpses in the room.

At this time. The overlord said to Omar: "Your family is safe, now it's time for us to get down to business!" ”

"You were sent by Li Lan?" Omar asked.

"Let me introduce myself, my name is the overlord, I am the plenipotentiary representative of His Excellency the President, and theoretically, I can make many decisions for our His Excellency the President." The overlord introduced himself.

"Somalia is really full of talent, and I feel unbelievable about your skills." Omar Dao.

"Perennial birth and death, without a little strength, died a long time ago." The overlord said lightly.

"To convey my gratitude to your president, since those brutes pointed their guns at my family, I have already decided that Djibouti will officially return to Somalia from today, and it will be a family from now on." Omar said seriously.

"On behalf of all of you in Somalia, I welcome all of you in Djibouti."

……

Immediately afterwards, Omar made a nationally televised statement that Djibouti had no intention of joining the African Federation because Djibouti was already a member of Somalia.

As soon as this news came out, the whole country of Djibouti celebrated, and the people's hearts were stable for a while.

At the same time, the Somali Federation also announced that Djiboutians are welcome home, the border is lifted, and the Somali Federal Guard officially enters Djibouti.

Even if NATO is unhappy and has lost the first opportunity, let alone continue to make ghosts, even if all the regular troops are dispatched, it will not be able to set off any storms.

Unless NATO starts a war now, the troops in Djibouti will also immediately usher in a heavy military blow.

Djibouti's strategic position did not reach the point where NATO would not hesitate to go to war in advance, and in the end it could only acquiesce to such behavior.

However, NATO is not really at all moving, and has begun to strengthen the material reserves and troops of the military bases that have just been established in Africa, and it seems that it has no intention of leaving.

Li Lan didn't seem to see it, and didn't make a sound about it.

A few days later, when Djibouti's annexation to Somalia was complete, he also set foot on the Saudi path.

Saudi King Aziz personally greeted him at the airport, which was absolutely unprecedented treatment, and also reflected the Saudi side's respect for Li Lan's first arrival.

On the same day, in the extremely luxurious desert palace in Saudi Arabia, King Aziz held a super grand welcome ceremony for Li Lan and Lin Meiqi.

Even Li Lan, who has already seen a lot of things, has deeply felt the extravagance here, such as the golden hanging clock the size of a wardrobe, the gold chandelier inlaid with gemstones, and every piece of furniture and utensils is inlaid with gems and diamonds, which is dazzling.

However, this luxurious life did not make him have any fluctuations in his heart, he has seen a lot of things in his life, and these things are no different from normal in his eyes.

The Saudi side also prepared two very expensive gifts, a string of extremely expensive gemstone necklaces for Lin Meiqi, and a replica of the crown of the former Saudi royal family, which was a gift to Li Lan.

Despite being an imitation. Whether it is craftsmanship or value, it is not lost to the real crown at all. The only thing missing is the value of time, and the symbolic meaning.

But. The symbolic significance of sending Li Lan has been compensated, because it represents the friendship between Saudi Arabia and Somalia.

Obama visited Saudi Arabia several times back then, but he never received this kind of treatment, which shows Li Lan's status at the moment in the hearts of Arabs.

This is also the result of Li Lan's status skyrocketing after defeating Israel from Somalia.

After a welcome banquet, Li Lan, who had seen the demeanor of the Saudi royal family all day, had time to be alone with Saudi King Aziz.

As for Maggie Lin, she is being taken by the women of the Saudi royal family. Take it with you to admire the beauty of the desert palace.

"The king's hospitality made Li Lan deeply warm." After the two were left behind, Li Lan spoke in Arabic.

"President Lee is not only one of the youngest and most powerful presidents in the world, but also the most knowledgeable and diligent of all the leaders of all countries in the world.

As soon as Aziz heard Li Lan's Arabic. He looked surprised, and praised him loyally.

"The Arab world has always been Somalia's staunchest friend, Somalia is also a country under the Arab civilization, and I personally like Arab culture. It is easiest to understand the culture of a people by starting with language, so I learned Arabic as well. Li Lan said with a slight smile.

Well said, from this. President Lee has trumped many rumors, and I have a deep sense of your sincerity. Aziz said excitedly.

"The Arab world has a long history. I still have a lot to learn. ”

Li Lan first said modestly, and then continued: "Saudi Arabia is Somalia's most important neighbor. The continental shelves of the two countries are connected together, separated by a distance of the Red Sea, culturally you and I are not separated from each other, have the same devout beliefs, I have always wanted to promote the relationship between the two countries, but the political zhì this kind of thing is very delicate, not I can decide alone, in recent years, the rapid development of the relationship between the two sides, I am deeply gratified, Somalia needs a friend like Saudi Arabia. ”

Aziz nodded, he was very satisfied with Li Lan's words, and said: "Whether from the perspective of civilization or culture, the Arab world should be united in order to survive better in this world.

President Lee's thoughts coincide with mine, and Saudi Arabia very much hopes to develop further relations with Somalia and further contribute to the prosperity of the Arab world. ”

"That's why I decided to visit Saudi Arabia, because we can communicate with each other openly, and success or failure depends on chance." Li Lan nodded and said.

"I admire President Li's philosophy of governing the country, and I am very much looking forward to meeting with you this time, and I believe that this meeting will definitely achieve a result that both sides are very satisfied with." Aziz said.

"In this case, then we will speak freely, now everyone can see that sooner or later there will be a war between Somalia and NATO, and Saudi Arabia can welcome me at this time, and I can also appreciate your determination and purpose." Li Lan said.

"You are right, although Saudi Arabia has always had a close relationship with the United States for more than half a century, but you may not know that Saudi Arabia is the country that most wants to get rid of NATO influence, the Arab world, there is no need for white people to interfere, but it is impossible to get rid of it on the Saudi side alone, we have tried several times, but they have failed."

Speaking of this, Aziz seemed to be a little excited, and his voice slowly increased: "We hope that our crude oil can be sold at our own price, rather than being controlled by the United States, and we hope that what we sell can be settled in our own currency, rather than being restricted by the US dollar and becoming a tool for US dollars to make money."

Successive kings have worked hard for this, but Saudi Arabia's strength is too small compared to the United States and NATO, and it is powerless to resist, which time the Americans came to Saudi Arabia, not to threaten Saudi Arabia, we can only make concessions again and again......"

Li Lan listened quietly to Aziz's words, as a major oil country, Saudi Arabia has been deeply controlled by the United States and NATO since World War II.

This is an indisputable fact, and Saudi Arabia did not think about selling oil by itself. But every time this decision is made, the top level of the United States will come. The policy of carrots and sticks will follow.

Saudi Arabia has had to bow its head again and again, now. There are no U.S. oil companies anywhere in Saudi Arabia, and almost all of them are extracted by U.S. oil companies.

Although this has also brought great prosperity to Saudi Arabia, it is the Americans who make more money, because every oil transaction, the Americans are sure to make a profit.

It still uses Saudi Arabia's domestic oil, to put it bluntly, if the oil is exploited a little, there will be a little less, once Saudi Arabia has no oil. And a considerable part of the wealth has been acquired by the Americans, and Saudi Arabia will really be tragic in a hundred years.

For this reason, the Saudi side also wants to do long-term development, not to frantically collect oil to meet the needs of the United States.

The rise of Somalia has given Saudi Arabia hope, and the strength of Somalia as an Arab country has further stimulated the idea of the kingdom to free itself from American influence.

It's just that this idea has never been very firm.

Considering the more than a decade of close relations between Somalia and many allies in the Middle East, it has not been affected in any way by the larger world environment.

It wasn't until Somalia launched a war against Israel that the Saudi top brass began to firmly choose Somalia.

So. Saudi Arabia has also begun to drastically change its attitude and has begun to take the initiative to cooperate and engage with Somalia.

The results were very good, and the Somali side fully accepted the friendship of Saudi Arabia and also expressed its friendship with Saudi Arabia.

The two sides briefly cooperated in several business collaborations. Cooperation in both scientific and technological and basic fields has achieved great success.

Otherwise, Li Lan would not have come to Saudi Arabia. I won't bring Lin Meiqi over.

"The difficulties faced by Saudi Arabia are the same as those faced by many Arab countries. This is something we all need to face together, regardless of the direct exploitation of interests. NATO's military bases in Arab countries alone are not acceptable to us. None of us like that in our own country, there are other armies stationed there, and the main thing is that these armies are there to maintain the sense of existence of their own exploitation. Li Lan said.

"The US military garrison in Saudi Arabia has always annoyed Saudi Arabia, but due to its lack of capabilities, it is impossible for the Americans to withdraw their troops, and the government can only treat it as if it has not seen it." Aziz said helplessly.

"If we want to regain full national sovereignty, we all have to fight, and if we can't make the other side concede in words, then we have to start with practical actions."

Li Lan's face was straight, and he said very sternly: "All along, Somalia is unwilling to accept US hegemony, so it has been constantly fighting against the United States, what we need is a space where we can live, and a sky of our own, but now over our heads, other people's warplanes fly by from time to time, around us, and other people's garrisons stir our nerves from time to time.

As a country that wants to develop, this is unbearable, we not only want to have freedom, but also need to have the right to development, our future cannot continue to be controlled by others, our lives and everything must be decided by ourselves.

This is the philosophy of our Somali Federation, and when the shackles that bind us limit our development and rise, we will break the shackles and smash all the unfair rules and treatment that have been imposed on us.

As a new era and new opportunities, what we need is to create a future that belongs to us and future generations with our hands, instead of continuing to be submissive, continuing to live in the shadow of others, and being constrained by others for the rest of our lives. ”

Li Lan's impassioned words made Aziz very recognized, and when his voice fell, Aziz couldn't help but continue: "Yes, although as the leader of a country, I don't want to see my country be poisoned by the flames of war, but I have a greater responsibility to fight for the future of Saudi Arabia." ”

"You are a wise king, and I am proud of your people." Li Lan nodded and said: "Lebanon, Palestine, Syria, Iran, Pakistan, Yemen, and Iraq are all ready to fight, and as long as the war begins, they will directly participate in the war and fight for future freedom." ”

"Saudi Arabia will be a part of that." Aziz nodded solemnly, and he simply agreed.

Because this is the fundamental purpose of Saudi Arabia, at such a time, it is not just a Saudi issue, but a question of the survival of the entire Saudi state.

The entire Middle East is at war, and the Saudis have no reason to refuse.

"I have also seen the determination of Saudi Arabia, if you allow it, I plan to secretly build a military industry in Saudi Arabia in the next six months, and all the weapons and equipment produced at that time will be used as weapons and equipment for the Saudi army."

The other party said that Li Lan could no longer hide it, and said very firmly.

Aziz was shocked, and said with some surprise: "Really? But is there too much time? ”

"You can rest assured, our military industry is not a traditional military industry, because we have fully realized 3D printing technology, all our weapons and equipment, engines and parts, all have achieved 3D printing production, in terms of efficiency, it is absolutely world-class."

Speaking of this, Li Lan paused for a moment and continued: "In other countries in the Middle East, a large number of military factories have already begun to be under construction, and it will only take one month to fully put into production, and then not only rifles, but also fighters and main battle tanks can be produced, and there is no difficulty at all in producing ammunition, shells, and artillery. Even missiles can be built directly as long as the construction of factories continues. ”

Aziz nodded in shock, and was extremely glad in his heart to have chosen Somalia, this kind of technology that is still in practice, Somalia can actually be used in actual combat.

Li Lan saw the surprise on Aziz's face, and his heart was very satisfied, as soon as he thought of the high-level mode of global deployment, he had endless ambitions in his heart.

Advanced Global Deployment Mode: Buildings and weapons production units can be built anywhere in non-enemy territory. (To be continued......)
