The battle for Meso, whether it is Obama or Li Lan, has played cards one after another......

This has given the whole world a feeling of feasting its eyes, especially the space migration plan proposed by Li Lan, which has attracted special attention.

Because this year, the United States has announced that it will officially launch the Mars 1 immigration program in 11 years, and even the candidates for immigration are beginning to be elected.

What Li Lan vaguely meant was that he intended to compete with the United States in the field of space.

This also makes the whole world feel very incredible, after all, the United States has long had a leading level in the field of space, and has always left other countries far behind, even Russia, which was able to compete with the United States in this regard, is now lagging behind a lot.

However, not many people think that Li Lan is aiming for nothing, because since he appeared, he has not made a joke, and every signal that emanates from him is a fact.

Therefore, this also makes countless people wonder, does Somalia really have space technology that can compete with the United States?

Combined with the anti-Ebola vaccines and disinfectants that are being sent to West African countries in June, this has given Li Lan some credibility, after all, Somalia has once again quietly developed the Ebola virus that can solve the Ebola virus that has plagued the world for decades.

Maybe there are more high-tech that the outside world can't know about, and all along, Somalia has a launch vehicle almost every month, each time it is more than one stone, and various scientific research satellites have gradually entered outer space.

From this point, it can be further explained that Somalia's space technology has also reached a very advanced level. And the potential for follow-up exhibitions is also very sufficient. Coupled with the participation of China, once the two countries start to cooperate without gaps. The technology complements each other, and when the time comes, there is really the ability to immigrate to the moon or Mars. It's not impossible.

In this regard, even Russia wants to get involved, although Ukraine is still bothering Putin, he still sent two people, all the way to visit China, all the way to find Li Lan.

The European Space Agency, which was affected by this scientific and technological competition, also couldn't sit still and began to publish some hidden research results, hoping to attract attention.

But no matter what things are, this kind of competition in Mesot. It is not over, and the competition in the aerospace field deliberately caused by Li Lan has not yet come to an end.

U.S. Secretary of Defense Hagel made a surprise visit to Yemen, and many NATO countries began to send some heavyweights to Africa and the Arabian Peninsula, which made the original form of confrontation between the United States and Somalia even more complicated.

Nowadays, the international visit of the coordinated action is naturally not small, and Li Lan is also paying special attention to it, especially Hagel's visit to Yemen. Be the central point of attention for all events.

The intelligence department also moved urgently at this time, and soon news came to Li Lan's hands, and Natasha, who was in charge of this matter, came to Li Lan's office again. He reported: "Commander, according to information received by the Yemeni Intelligence Division, Hagel after a five-hour secret meeting with the Yemeni president. The official joint announcement of the establishment of a new friendship between Yemen and the United States.

The United States will be in the next five years. It has provided large sums of money and loans to Yemen to build infrastructure, as well as a batch of American-made weapons for Yemen's most elite Republican Guard. matter. It was officially announced by the two countries.

According to the investigation of our intelligence officers, it is very likely that the two sides have made new progress on the issue of Socotra Island, although so far, our intelligence personnel have not received definite information, but it can be seen from the further relations between the United States and Yemen that the United States has obtained the Socotra Island they want from Yemen. ”

When Li Lan heard this, he said with great certainty: "This is inevitable, if the United States has not achieved its goal, how can it provide such huge support to Yemen." ”

In fact, since Hagel's visit to Yemen, Li Lan has guessed that the United States has been coveting Socotra Island for a day or two, especially after the rise of Somalia, the United States has been secretly speeding up its attack on Yemen.

And the only thing that can catch the eye of a poor Yemen with little power is the strategically important island of Socotra.

The archipelago consists of 4 islands, the archipelago has an area of 365o square kilometers and the main island has an area of 3635 square kilometers. As early as ancient times, the ancient Indians continued to come to this island to obtain **, gentian, dragon's blood, myrrh, aloe vera, civet, ambergris and other precious medicines, they called this island "happy island".

In the fifteenth century, the Portuguese came to the island to help the islanders free themselves from the Islamic states of the Arabian Peninsula, and at the same time used the island as a military base for Portugal, on the one hand, to invade the Hadaramou province of Yemen and other places in Shihr, and on the other hand, to serve Portuguese ships traveling between the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean.

In the 18th century, the island was once under the jurisdiction of the East India Company. In 1886, Britain extended its tentacles here. They first offered to buy the island cheaply and incorporate it into the British Empire, but this attempt was rejected by the local sultan of Yemen. As a result, the British colonial army occupied the island by force. Thereafter, the British made the island a naval exclusion zone, and together with the Sultanate of Mahri, it came under British protection, and became an important British base in the Indian Ocean until the end of British colonial rule in South Yemen in the early 70s of the 20th century.

In the seventies of the last century, the island of Kotra became independent with South Yemen and became part of Yemen. The island was once stationed by the Soviet fleet, which turned it into a Soviet naval base in the Middle East. After the collapse of the USSR at the end of the 2O 8s of the century, the fleet was withdrawn from Socotra.

In recent years, before Li Lan unified Somalia, it also became an important fuel supply point for Somali pirates, providing fuel for pirates' ocean-going raids.

Today, there are still some pirates operating on the island, but they are no longer in the climate.

The reason why the United States looks at this island is not because of the spices produced on this island, but because of its geographical location and the ability to build complete military facilities.

The island is only 240 kilometres off the coast of the northeastern corner of Somalia, with a total of just over 100 nautical miles. If it were during the war, at such a distance, no matter how strong the bases built by the United States were, they would have been quickly wiped out.

But in peacetime, the island lies right at the exit of the Gulf of Aden, and as long as a surveillance facility is built here, the United States can conduct close surveillance of the Somali Navy and Air Force.

In particular, Somalia's submarine forces, the island groups of Socotra are scattered and scattered, and with the US military with a fixed base, it is possible to complete underwater surveillance of the entire Gulf of Aden. In peacetime, Somali warships and submarines are probed in detail about sonar signals and water ripple responses, as well as changes in the Earth's magnetic field. And the United States can also use this to secretly keep an eye on other countries' warships and submarines coming in and out of the Gulf of Aden.

And the United States has been using such methods on Russia and China for many years, and Li Lan is naturally no stranger to this.

Therefore, once the United States really builds military facilities on it, it will have some adverse effects on the normal entry and exit of the navy and air force of the Red Guard Corps.

In his opinion, the possibility of the intelligence services getting it is already a 100% thing, because this kind of thing does not need to be guessed by chance, and the United States will naturally not taste the sweetness of Yemen if it does not get hold of Yemen.

"Keeping an eye on this matter? No clue can be missed. In this regard, Li Lan can also say that there is nothing he can do now, except for further observation of the situation, he can only prepare for the future.

"I've already ordered it to go down, I don't know if I will start contacting the Shiite Houthis?" Natasha asked.

Li Lan did not respond immediately, but pondered, he is no stranger to Yemen's Houthi organization, Tong Guò has known all these years.

This is an organization that hopes to emulate Iran and establish a "theocratic Yemen" because it was dissatisfied with the Yemeni president's closeness to the United States, and at one point fought with government forces, and the two sides fought intermittently for more than a decade.

At the same time, this group has repeatedly exchanged fire with the al-Qaeda branch in Yemen and is considered a more traditional ideological organization of Shia Muslims. At present, the Houthis have occupied the southern part of Yemeni and are engaged in peace talks with the current Yemeni government.

Li Lan has always had plans to approach this organization, and the preparations have been in place for a long time, but they have never been implemented. Now, once Yemen and the United States do reach an agreement on Socotra Island, he cannot remain silent.

"It's not going to happen in a day or two, and we don't fully understand the internal thinking of this organization yet. However, from now on, we can also have a preliminary contact and see what the other party means. After weighing it in his heart for a moment, Li Lan said.

"I'll arrange it later, but what if the other party is not willing to cooperate with us in all aspects?" Natasha asked rhetorically.

"I think they should be able to figure it out, after all, with the current government, they are still under the fence, how can they get a few official positions?" Li Lan said.

"I'm afraid they can't figure it out, after all, their strength is limited, and they can't completely overthrow the current ruling government in Yemen." Natasha was still skeptical.

When Li Lan heard this, after thinking in his heart for a while, he said: "If the other party really doesn't agree, then we will force them to agree, otherwise we don't have anyone to support." ”

Yemen is a purely Muslim country, with 53% Sunni and Shiites for the rest, and there is no way to support the participation of third parties if the Houthi armed groups, which control Shia ideology, do not cooperate. So, if he wants to overthrow the current Yemeni government close to the United States, then he needs the Houthis. (To be continued......)
