Chapter 242: The Purpose of the King of Morocco

The end of the Gulf War is still ongoing

On February 19, 1991, the Soviet Union put forward four peace proposals, which Saddam Hussein agreed to.

It is difficult to understand that at this time, the Soviet Union still has the energy to manage the affairs of the Middle East, is it not already a mess in the country?

At the same time, Joseph received the king from there.

The radical national anthem flutters the flag of the Nord Kingdom heroic and neat Royal Janissaries of the Nord Kingdom, the Nord Kingdom airport has been placed under martial law, and Joseph awaits the arrival of the King of Morocco.

The passenger plane roared, this is the private airliner of King Sidi of Morocco, when the passenger plane landed smoothly, Sidi has taken the lead in smiling out of the air, and instantly a large number of camera license plates resounded through the airport.

Joseph walked up the red carpet and hugged each other very closely......

"Long time no see, Sidi."

"Long time no see, Joseph."

The live broadcast interpreter simply described the conversation between the two at this time as a cordial and friendly hug between the two parties, and a friendship between old friends.

Friendship? That's complete nonsense, who doesn't know that the Moroccan king's ** team has been outside the country? If it weren't for the military strength and △◎ technology of the Nord Kingdom to scare off the Kingdom of Morocco, the two sides would have been in war at this time.

Joseph is not afraid of war, but unfortunately Sidi chose to retreat at a critical moment, which made Joseph very helpless.

Can you not flinch, the military technology displayed by King Nord at the parade has reached the level of many ** teams in the Middle East, and how long will it take for many ** teams in the Middle East to defeat Iraq? The results speak for themselves, can they not be afraid?

"Your Highness, good morning."

Sidi introduced the lady next to him to Joseph, and at the same time greeted Kate very kindly, Kate responded enthusiastically and briefly talked to the Moroccan princess.

The two sides then inspected the Royal Janissaries together, and after the review, the Moroccan king and his princess got into the car. The group headed towards the Nord Palace.

Dozens of Audi A6s, black Rolls-Royces, such a standard convoy of residents and tourists on both sides of the streets of the Nord Kingdom stopped to watch from time to time, and the Moroccan king felt the enthusiasm from the Nord Kingdom for the first time.

"Will Joseph agree to our request?"

"I'm sure it will, because he can't refuse."

"Yes......

"No, he won't refuse."

At the same time Joseph was in the car

"What is the purpose of Sidi Lai Nord's visit this time?"

"It's not clear, but it's certain that low prices are a certain thing when it comes to the oil trade."

"So, are you going to agree to be in?"

"It's not clear what he's bid."

Bids aren't really good. Rather, it was support from other quarters, such as the support of the position of Western Sahara in Africa and the temptation of the territories of some surrounding countries.

Half an hour later, the Nord Kingdom Conference Room.

"Sidi, we're old friends, if you have any requests then just say it!"

Because there are no reporters around, the two talk a lot more casually, after all, this is not a public place, and the reporter has already left after taking some photos casually.

"I want to buy 800,000 barrels of crude oil a day at 80/10 of the market price."

"Why!"

Twenty-fifths of the proceeds, why? Although it is only 800,000 barrels of crude oil.

"A province of Algeria."

Hear the words. Joseph stood up abruptly, looked at Sidi intently, and said, "Why should I believe your words, a province of Algeria...... It's simple. ”

"Now I can only tell you that one of the provinces closer to Western Sahara has independent intentions. If you can convince their governor, then it will be easy to defect to you. ”

Naturally, things were not as simple and easy as Sidi said, but this incident did make Joseph a little tempted, after all, it was a provincial temptation.

A province wants to be incorporated into the kingdom of Nord. Then he needs a lot of steps to deal with the situation that it brings, the first is that it must first be independent and be able to survive the attack of the government army.

It's not easy. Because it is very difficult for the power of a province to fight against the power of a country, especially those countries that want to help and aid it cannot directly use force, the only thing that can be done is to quietly provide financial aid and weapons aid.

Joseph could probably guess which province Sidi was talking about, after all, Joseph had more intelligence officers in several surrounding countries over the years, and even some of them had already controlled several important positions in the border provinces, and the highest had even served as the deputy governor of the province.

To get back to the point, the armed forces of that province were only about one-tenth of the government army, and it was not impossible for the two sides to be reduced to one-sixth or even one-fifth if there was the financial support of weapons from the Duchy of Nord. In particular, the other party cannot attack it with all the strength of the whole country, and the winning rate of being able to withstand this catastrophe is five or five points.

At this time, the second step appeared, first of all, the question of credibility, whether the governor who could withstand this catastrophe would still be willing to merge into the Nord Kingdom, after all, at this time it already had the ability to be independent and self-governing, after all, no one wanted to add a boss or even multiple bosses to it.

Needless to say, if they are not prepared to keep their promises, but if they are ready to keep them, then the first obstacle has already appeared, and that is how to gain the approval of the countries of the world, which has a colonial tendency.

"What is your relationship with the governor?"

Sidi actually said this today, then it can be confirmed that he has a very close relationship with the governor, and at least he is confident that he will help the Nord Kingdom to merge him into the Nord Kingdom.

"It doesn't matter, does it matter?"

"Yes, it's not very important.

The two sides did not mention the matter again but engaged in small talk, and everything needs to be verified before it is possible to continue negotiations, before ...... Both parties will treat each other as if they were friends.

The welcome dinner of the Nord Kingdom was very rich, and the new Prime Minister of Nord, Smith, also attended the banquet, he was in Paris, but because of this incident hurried back to attend the banquet, Sidi was very happy about this, after all, this is a very respectful behavior of the other party.

Kate and the Princess of Morocco had been chatting in the back garden all morning while Joseph was talking to Sidi in the morning, so the two of them had a good conversation at the dinner table.

"Speaking of flowers, my favorite tulips."

"I'm not like you, I like the Thorn Flower, and I like its perseverance and senselessness."

The two women talked about flowers, and Joseph talked to Sidi about science and technology and industry, and when they talked about this, they couldn't help but feel a little emotionally about the Soviet Union, which was undoubtedly the greatest sorrow of all countries in the world at this time.

"Emphasizing heavy industry and ignoring light industry is a fatal wound."

"But heavy industry did bring a lot of benefits to the Soviet Union, and without the poisonous plans and slow invading of the United States, the Soviet Union would have been here for some time."

"Indeed, it is a pity that fate cannot be changed, and we can only sit back and watch his slow collapse."

Sidi shook his head helplessly, and he sighed again: "If there is the Soviet Union, it may be more in line with the interests of our countries, at least it will not let the United States cover the sky with one hand and control the United Nations Council in its hands." ”

"A United Nations council does make things much easier for the United States."

"Is it because of the United States that the price of the euro has fallen a little recently?"

"The probability is very low, the United States has recently focused all its attention on Iraq in the Middle East, and it is estimated that he has not bothered to pay attention to such trivial matters as us."

Bagatelle? There is no small matter in the world, especially when it comes to the economy.

Joseph raised his glass, shook it at Sidi, and then said of the king of Morocco, Aziz: "I don't know what Aziz has been doing lately, he was in contact with me some time ago. ”

Joseph didn't say it explicitly, but Sidi understood that it was a faint threat, but he was not afraid, and smiled slightly, which made Joseph more or less disheartened.

Sidi was very satisfied with the sumptuous feast, but he did not get any promise from Joseph, but Sidi was not discouraged, because he felt that Joseph would agree, and it was only a matter of time.

Letting Sidi go back to the bedroom to rest, Joseph returned to the bedroom, hugged Kate's slightly thin body, and asked a little tangled: "Today, Sidi made a condition to sell 500,000 barrels of crude oil a day at a price of 80 per day, and his reward was to introduce us to an Algerian border governor. ”

"Governor of the Algerian border, what do you mean ......"

"That's right, if it succeeds, then in ten years we may be able to gain some more territory."

In fact, the territory of the Nord Kingdom is no longer very scarce, the land of the Nord territory has reached eight square kilometers, and the successive immigrants and some elite education points in Western Sahara and the return of former citizens, at this time the number of local residents has reached 100,000, which meets the standards of an international metropolis.

At this time, what the Nord Kingdom lacks the most is the population, although it is now increasing at a rate of 12/12 every year, but how many years will it take for this group of newborns to grow up? Joseph couldn't afford to wait.

The Nord kingdom was not prepared to be unrelievable, but if some basic labor could be added, then Joseph would be very willing, especially the Arabs who were less powerful in Western Sahara.

If you want to balance, then the average population of all ethnic groups is better, and more than 400,000 laborers have arrived in China again, of course, these have arrived one after another in more than a year, and each batch is only a few tens of thousands.

Western Sahara was a place of deep ethnic contradictions, and increasing the ethnic population was a short-term solution, but what Joseph lacked was short-term, so he very much wanted something similar. Increasing the land also strengthened some of the population, even if Joseph was not a favorite Arab.

Joseph did not have any resentment against the Arabs, but felt that they were more aggressive, so he was a little displeased and prone to disputes over religion. (To be continued......)
