Three months later, Obama, under tremendous pressure at home, finally arrived in Bagua City, the capital of Somalia, under the watchful eye of all people.

For today's trip to Somalia, Obama has been preparing for three months to arrive in Somalia as scheduled in the face of huge domestic opposition. To this end, he did not hesitate to sacrifice a large amount of support from the domestic people to complete the trip.

On the Somali side, all preparations for Obama's arrival were made in accordance with the highest diplomatic etiquette, and Vice President Farah personally met the plane at the Bagua City Air Base and held a high-level welcome ceremony at the airport.

Obama's itinerary was also accompanied by the highest level of security, and this kind of treatment is also the etiquette that can only be found when the top leaders of China and Russia visit Somalia.

When Obama's motorcade arrived at the gate of the base, Li Lan also took Lin Meiqi to wait at the gate of the base to greet Obama and his party and the first lady of the United States.

After a series of activities such as raising the flag, reviewing the honor guard of the three services, introducing personnel, and welcoming the ceremony, the teams of the two sides also immediately held talks for several hours, the content of which was nothing more than some official face-to-face remarks and did not have much practical significance.

If it weren't for the fact that this was the first high-level contact between the two governments, the talks wouldn't have lasted so long.

After the official meeting, the next event was a bit of a surprise. In the afternoon, Obama and Li Lan did not have a formal conversation, and unexpectedly, Li Lan and Lin Meiqi took Obama and his wife on a tour of Bagua City.

Climb the 32-meter-high Guangling Pagoda, the most iconic building in Bagua City, visit Bagua City University, and have academic exchanges with students of Bagua City University.

A series of activities down. The day passed like that, and in the evening it was a welcome banquet. Ms. Li and Mr. Obama did not have any private exchanges. This made countless waiting eyes very disappointed.

But. After the welcome dinner, the news finally came out that tomorrow Li Lan will invite Obama separately to visit the second Somali defense exhibition, which will begin tomorrow.

Only then did everyone come to their senses, not that the two sides had nothing to say, but that they had carefully prepared for this conversation.

However, when the curious wanted to book tickets for the Somali defense show, they found out that the tickets for the first day had been sold out two months earlier, even for the next week. It's all booked.

Finally, they could wait for the heads of state of the two sides to hold talks, but they did not expect that this would be the result, which directly made a large number of media outlets beat their chests, and even those military media who had booked tickets early were ecstatic.

The next day, Li Lan and Obama's motorcade also arrived on time when the National Defense Exhibition officially opened, and the National Defense Exhibition Hall was already full at this moment, and many reporters without tickets were waiting here in the early morning, hoping to get some news.

Even buy through visitors who have tickets. Hopefully, they will be able to provide some valuable information from the scene, and some will offer a high price to seek a full video of the meeting between the two.

In fact, it is no secret that Obama and Li Lan are going to talk about the topic. Ten days ago, after the foreign ministries of the two countries officially announced the news of the upcoming meeting between the two heads of state, the main topics of conversation during the meeting were also announced at the same time.

And the reason why so many people paid attention to this meeting. It's for these questions, there's no denying it. The confrontation between Somalia and NATO has become the most unstable factor in the whole world. It would be better if Somalia did not have nuclear weapons. But the two nuclear-armed military blocs are so opposed that they cannot but be reminiscent of the Cold War.

During the Cold War, the impact was huge, and what civilians were most concerned about every day was whether there was a tomorrow and how they could run into the bomb shelter.

Now, many people have begun to appreciate the situation of the Cold War, and after the official establishment of the East African Community, too many people with good intentions spread rumors about World War III, and various statements and analyses emerged one after another.

Now that there is finally a way to resolve this crisis, it is bound to attract a lot of attention, and international tensions have eased considerably because of Obama's trip. Everyone seemed to see the dawn of future peace, and their ups and downs calmed down for a while.

Most of the eyes of the world converged, and under the watchful eyes of thousands of people, Li Lan and Obama got out of the car at the same time, and the two people of about the same height walked side by side and walked towards the gate of the exhibition hall.

When the two disappeared at the gate of the exhibition hall, the onlookers did not walk away, but waited quietly.

After entering the exhibition hall, Li Lan and Obama did not start to get down to business, or rather, they didn't come here to talk about business at all. The official talks took place in the afternoon, and this morning, Li Lan invited Obama to visit the exhibition, which was essentially an event. As for the speculation of the outside world, neither side has the intention of explaining, and there is no need to explain.

Entering the exhibition hall, Li Lan soon saw the first weapon in the indoor exhibition hall, and Li Lan instantly became a commentator, introducing Obama to the development and performance of the weapon.

"This is a self-propelled gun designed specifically by my Future Technologies Group for the Army's heavy forces, codenamed Pacifier. As you can see, on the left and right sides of the turret are two 155 mm howitzers, the body adopts a rollable front and rear double hull, powered by a single engine for four independent track systems, the total combat weight is 80 tons, the maximum effective range is 80 kilometers, and the two barrels can fire at different or the same target at the same time. ”

The first thing was a behemoth, a very strange-looking heavy tracked self-propelled gun, the turret was flanked by two slender barrels, and the slender body gave the self-propelled gun a large enough caliber ratio.

And what attracted Obama's attention the most was the four tracks on both sides of the body, which looked like the chassis of two tanks were connected together, and he still understood a little bit about this layout, the biggest advantage is that he can maneuver in complex terrain, be able to climb higher places, and the width of the trench will be longer. The biggest disadvantage is the power limitation and maintenance trouble.

However, Obama's heart was heavy when he saw this small house-like weapon in front of him, and since such a weapon was on display here. In other words, the Somalis are already sure to solve the problems caused by this design. Maybe this is already a weapon that has been finalized to be equipped with troops.

Since he accepted Li Lan's invitation, he came to visit the Somali national defense exhibition together. He was ready to accept a qiē. The weapon in front of him looked very intimidating, but it didn't make his face change in any way.

On the contrary, he also discussed with Li Lan with great interest, if he didn't know the identities of the two, he would have thought that it was a meeting between two loyal military fans, and there was an endless topic of military weapons.

After standing in front of the pacifier self-propelled guns for a moment, Li Lan continued to walk inside with Obama, and soon came to these two booths, and when everyone saw the big guy standing tall in front of them, they all changed color slightly.

The weapon in front of me was so shocking. Underneath are two leg-like triangular triangular tracks, on top is a waist-like torque device, on top is a human body, two arms are transformed into two intimidating-looking weapons, and as for the head, it is a semicircular sphere with various electronic devices.

Looking at the sci-fi in front of him, more like a weapon of a machine, before Li Lan could speak, Obama asked with great curiosity: "How can this thing get in?" ”

Look and see. None of the doors were found to enter the weapon, so it was no wonder that Obama asked such a question, and the staff who followed them were curious.

When Li Lan heard this, she didn't seem to have any intention of hiding it. "The Future Tank X-1 is a conceptual future ground combat equipment, which does not require personnel to operate. A qiē battle is all carried out by the central control device of the weapon itself. It has the same defensive power as the main battle tank, and is armed with two arms. It's the deadliest weapon on it. ”

Very brief introduction, not revealing much more. But just one or two points, which have made Obama deeply feel that he is prepared to bear the guilt, is now almost useless.

Obama has long been confident that he will be able to keep Somalia under control. Because Somalia has two major weaknesses, one is its comprehensive national strength, which cannot be resolved in a short period of time. Another point is talent, the United States has millions of scientific research talents, hundreds of thousands of experimental institutions, these are the highly industrialized and technological United States is the biggest dependence.

The United States, which has countless outstanding talents and industrial and scientific and technological strength, is not afraid of any country even if a full-scale war breaks out, because the war potential is too deep. Just like in World War II, the United States did not have much advantage at the beginning, but in just one or two years, the United States could control the entire war. This is also the confidence of the United States all along.

Now, Obama has also seen the powerful creative force under Li Lan, as far as the previous pacifier artillery is concerned, the reason why he doesn't care about that thing is only because the United States can also develop weapons comparable to it, and he doesn't care at all. Moreover, the sophistication of a weapon is not enough to establish victory in a war.

But the sci-fi futuristic warplane in front of us is enough to show Somalia's strong scientific research capabilities and electronic technology that is no worse than any other country.

Don't look at Japan's leading position in the world in the development of future unmanned war weapons, but the Americans have always been relatively low-key, you must know that the United States has always been the world's leading in machine technology, and thousands of scientific research studios are studying the project. As long as the time comes to integrate these studios, it will inevitably bring about the take-off of real-world technology.

Moreover, many unmanned warplanes have been fully tested in actual combat, and these are the most valuable tests, and the United States has only been accumulating them.

Therefore, Americans do not care about Japanese research, but the weapons in front of them have a feeling that Obama cannot sleep.

Compared to the products and theoretical things in the United States that are still in the real room, the Somalis have put the finished products on the forefront. Obama didn't even know what those two robotic arms-like weapons were.

"Is this gear finalized?" Without thinking about anything else, Obama asked cheekily, in fact, he also understood that the reason why Li Lan brought him here was a kind of weapon deterrence, and he was willing to come here, that is, he wanted to see what kind of development Somalia had developed, so he didn't care whether his own problem would touch Li Lan's bottom line. Of course, if Li Lan was willing to answer, it would be a good thing, and if he didn't answer, he would have nothing to lose. After all, the United States knows too little about the current Somalia, and it is not a small gain to know a little more.

"We still need to solve some practical problems, conceptual weapons, maybe just an excess, after all, the real effect of a weapon still needs to be tested in actual combat." Li Lan said ambiguously.

He brought Obama here, not to reveal his family, he will say what he should say, and he will find reasons to say it, but what he shouldn't say is that he won't reveal half a word even if he knocks his mouth open.

Hearing Li Lan's answer, Obama also took his heart and did not continue to delve into this topic, but took a closer look at some details of the weapon. The idea of a politician is to maximize the benefits of a qiē, and it is not easy to come here, so it is natural to observe it carefully, otherwise it will not be wasted.

Li Lan was patient, waiting for Obama to find a magnifying glass to observe, and he did not make any urging moves. It wasn't until Obama had read it thoroughly that Li Lan took the lead and walked towards the third booth.

The third weapon appeared in the eyes of everyone, and compared to the future tank X-1, the next weapon gave a very different impression. Because this weapon looks too ordinary. A cylindrical body of no more than three meters, the top of the cylinder is a semicircular opaque glass cover, on either side of the cylinder are two twelve-barreled retainer cannons, but the caliber looks very large, reaching forty millimeters, two huge chains are attached to the back of the two cannons, and the other end is attached to the cylinder.

"The Getter cannon system, a weapon with good air defense, a caliber of forty millimeters, and a rate of fire of 12,000 rounds per minute." In a simple sentence, Li Lan said the name of this weapon and the two basic numbers jù.

Obama, who was next to him, asked directly: "This weapon is also an automatic weapon!" ”

"Yes, it's like your country's phalanx system, this is not an unconventional weapon, it's just strengthened." Li Lan said.

Although Li Lan's explanation is very reasonable, Obama can't believe it in his heart, is it really as simple as Li Lan said to put such a weapon after the previous two weapons that are so new?

Although he didn't believe it in his heart, Obama didn't open his mouth to ask, because Li Lan's answer had already broken his excuse for continuing to ask.
