"Mr. Farah, I'm curious that the Weishenme government forces will suddenly retreat."

The one-month time given by the base is almost up, and Li Lan originally wanted to wait for tomorrow to start producing the Rhino tank, and then directly take the initiative to attack, for which he set aside 100,000 base funds. Seriously, with such a sudden retreat of the government troops, he still can't figure out weishenme.

It just so happened that Farah called to congratulate him, and he didn't forget to clear up his doubts.

"My friend, although the government army is very strong in Bossaso, that was only before, in order to be able to defeat you, Awei sent more than 10,000 soldiers, and less than 3,000 were able to go back. Coupled with the consumption of a large amount of ammunition and weapons, the strength of the government army plummeted in a short period of time. Although the previous tribes and shili also had certain losses, their soldiers were replenished quickly, and twenty days was enough for them to recover.

As a result, Bossaso's situation has turned around a lot. Yesterday, a total of more than 30 large and small shili joined forces to resist the government army, reject all government orders of the government army, and also occupy a lot of territory of the original government army, directly threatening the fundamental interests of Awei. Because the government forces have too many places to protect, and the troops are relatively scattered, Awei has to call the troops back as soon as possible to stabilize the current situation and prevent the situation from developing to a worse point. ”

Farah explained in detail, but Li Lan also heard a little other meaning, thought for a while and asked, "Then the thirty shiliweishenme will unite?" Could it be that my negotiations with them were the result of my previous negotiations? ”

"There are reasons for this, and the bigger reason is the depletion of the strength of the government army, so that these shili see the opportunity to grow further. Bossaso's cake is just that, and the government army used to occupy eighty percent, and now the strength of the government army has been greatly reduced, and the other shili naturally have to do something, otherwise they don't deserve to survive in Somalia. Farah said with some sarcasm.

"Since the interests are in the first place, did Mr. Farah also make a move?" Li Lan said.

"Hehe, on the contrary, not only did I not make a move, but I also asked the people under my command to shrink their defenses. I'm just a businessman, not a warlord, and the most important thing in Somalia is that I can protect my life and business. "Farah didn't lie, and he didn't make a move,

“weishenme？ Don't you want to expand your reach? Li Lan was a little curious.

"The reason why I am today is because I never try to infringe on the interests of others, and of course, others don't want to take my interests. It's been like this for a few years?" Speaking of this, Farah's voice changed and said, "It's not because I have superb awareness, but because I can't find a chance to make a move." ”

"I wonder what the opportunity you are talking about?" Li Lan asked.

"The opportunity I was looking forward to was an opportunity to completely change Bossaso, and neither the current government nor the parties had the effect that I was hoping for, so I have always remained detached and neutral." Speaking of this, Farah weighed it in his mind and continued to explain:

"Although Puntland declared its independence and formed its own government, few internationals or Somalis recognized its existence. I don't care about international recognition of such things, but the fact that I don't have recognition from Somalis says a lot.

Bossaso alone, relying on the port of Bossaso, has an annual tax revenue of more than 100 million US dollars, which is more than 160 billion in exchange for Somali shillings. However, for more than ten years, the Puntland government, which received these taxes, has not made any improvement to Bossaso here, what was like in Bossaso more than ten years ago, and what is still what is now, the only thing that has changed is that there are more and more money in the pockets of government officials.

If this situation had not changed radically, what Bossaso would be today, and what it will be a decade or two from now. But I'm just a businessman, and I don't have the decisive strength to change the situation. So, I needed a chance. ”

"I admire your rational patriotism, the pointless armed conflict, where it is often civilians who really suffer. Believe me, such an opportunity will come soon. After listening to Farah's words, Li Lan said confidently and firmly.

By tomorrow, the task of upgrading the authority will be completed, and when he has intermediate permissions, he will be able to play many functions of the base, and when the time comes, he will also have the ability to initially improve here. And Li Lan never wanted to enslave the Somalis, but regarded this place as another home, in order to better realize his ambitions, to build Somalia. Therefore, he believes that in the future, as long as he can develop smoothly, the situation in Somalia will be fundamentally improved.

"I am also looking forward to this opportunity, and when we first met, I told you that as long as it can change the living conditions of the Somali people and free them from hunger and disease, I very much welcome the assistance of international organizations, as long as it does not harm the Somalis, even if it makes Somalia a client state. Because, compared to the life of the nationals of other dependent countries, the Somalis are too miserable in the past. ”

Farah's real concern is the lives of Somalis, and he will not hesitate to change that, even if he is allowed to cooperate with the devil, as long as it does not hurt the Somalis. specially said this to Li Lan, Farah was also making his position clear to him, so that Li Lan could cooperate with him without any scruples. Because he has seen the situation in front of him, Li Lan is his most cooperative partner. Moreover, he has lived in China, and he also has a very good impression of the Chinese, and he has a deeper affection for China, a country that has never had a colonial history.

In order to make Li Lan more aware of his thoughts, Farah continued: "I believe that whoever can change the face of Somali life today will be deeply loved by Somalis. When the time comes, even if he is an enemy of Quan Shijie, the Somalis will not hesitate to support him.

Everyone says that Africans are lazy and afraid of death. But this does not exist in Somalia, where chronic starvation and death threats have changed Somalis completely. As long as there is a chance to live more, every Somali will cherish it very much. When you can get to know the Somalis in depth, you will understand what I am saying. ”

Listening to Farah's sincere words on the phone, Li Lan was silent, he understood that Farah had seen a lot of things about him.

"You are a true Somali and I am sure that in the future, every Somali will remember you and you will be the Somali Mohammed of the twenty-first century." Li Lan said thoughtfully.

"But I don't know which one Allah is?" Farah pointed.

"Huh." Li Lan smiled slightly, looked at the mobilized soldiers who were sorting out the battlefield, and said, "Mr. Farah, there are too many common words between us, and we can't talk about things on the phone after all. Now, I don't have a lot of time. Half a month later, I would like to invite you to my base, and we will have a good talk face to face. ”

"No problem, half a month later, on time." Farah did not hesitate at all, and he was also very much looking forward to meeting Li Lan again.

The conversation between the two ended quickly.

Muhammadi on the side had been listening quietly, and after Li Lan put away his mobile phone, Mohammadi couldn't help but ask, "What did Mr. Farah say?" ”

"Daohe, and tell me the reason for the withdrawal of government troops." Li Lan said.

"Oh, so what do we do next?" Muhammadi asked.

In the past month, 57 mobilized soldiers have been added every day, but up to now there are only quite 800 mobilized soldiers who can still fight in the entire base, and the 600 beds in the field hospital are all full of wounded soldiers. After this war, not to mention the ammunition that consumed hundreds of thousands of base funds, even the mobilized soldiers also killed and injured more than 2,400 people.

The cost is not significant.

"Next, let the soldiers clean up the battlefield, and the same is true outside the city. Then it's just a matter of taking a good shower and getting a good night's sleep. The battle report will be handed in when I wake up. After completely relaxing, Li Lan felt that he was already so sleepy that he was almost unable to stand still, he needed to sleep well now, and as for the next things, he would talk about it when he woke up.
