Chapter 151: Public Opinion Attack
At a time when the negotiations between the US military and the Taliban prisoners of war failed and the war clouds were shrouded, Galaxy Group, under the leadership of Yang Guohua, reached cooperation agreements with more than a dozen large companies such as Boeing of the United States, Airbus of Europe, Dassault of France, Sony Aison, Apple, Nokia, etc.
Galaxy Group has received abundant funds, while other companies are also satisfied, and they have obtained the license to use voice intelligence technology, or the technology license.
In this.
Xiao Tian ordered Thomson to secretly recruit scientific research talents in the research and development of solar power generation technology, and began to form his power company in a low-key manner.
Solar power?
As soon as his idea was proposed, Thomson hesitated, and although solar power generation technology has made great progress and the cost of power generation has dropped slightly, it is still far from being compared with thermal power and nuclear power.
"The boss wants to engage in solar power generation, so he won't be carried away by the victory, right?" Thomson was suspicious.
But.
Thomson also knew that Galaxy Group only belonged to Xiao Tian and had no other shareholders, so no one in the company dared to question Xiao Tian's decision. Moreover, although Xiao Tian does not manage the company's affairs, his limited decisions have brought endless benefits to the company's development.
With these thoughts.
Thomson suppressed the curiosity in his heart and carried out the order seriously, and he also expected the boss to do something amazing.
……
Just when all the eyes of the world were on the war-clouded Afghanistan, in Paris, France, a new power company was established, and its name was Galaxy Solar Power Company!
Soon.
Xiao Tian threw another big bomb, and he "extorted" $5 billion from Boeing, Airbus, Dassault, North Heavy Industries, and Sputt Industries into the newly established power company, and spent hundreds of millions of dollars to build a scientific research laboratory to conduct research on solar power generation technology.
"Xiaotian, are you a little sloppy?" Bai Mei sat next to Xiao Tian and asked with a worried face.
Five billion US dollars, Xiao Tian invested in Galaxy Solar Power Company so easily, and it is still a company that has no profit prospects.
"Hehe, baby, do you feel sorry for the money?" Xiao Tian hugged Bai Mei and joked.
"No, I just think that it is more cost-effective to invest this money in Galaxy Automobile, not to mention, don't you want to prepare an agricultural product company, you need money to purchase equipment and recruit personnel......
"Haha......"
Xiao Tian laughed out loud, the investment of the agricultural product company would not require much money, so he was not worried at all. Moreover, the five billion dollars invested in the power company, excluding the cost of building new laboratories and purchasing experimental equipment, most of the money is still honestly kept in the company's account.
And.
Xiao Tian is very clear in his heart, even if he smashes out all the five billion, he will not lose money, because he has mature solar power generation technology and has the confidence to compete with thermal power and nuclear power companies.
The reason why he built a scientific research laboratory as soon as he came up was that Xiao Tian was carrying out his talent reserve plan.
……
The world's focus is on Afghanistan.
The U.S. military did not disappoint, and after Admiral Kate convened a military meeting, the troops in the Afghan theater began to move frequently, pressing towards central Afghanistan, aiming directly at Talinkot.
Omar also did not give in, quickly deploying defenses, digging trenches, and repairing bunkers to meet the attack of the American army.
Oddly enough.
Among the Taliban, those heavy weapons, such as T-90 tanks, Apache helicopter gunships, "Tornado" rocket launchers, etc., are all missing.
The cunning Omar, who understands that he is two pounds, knows more well the tactics of the US military's in-depth strike, so after he succeeded in the surprise attack on Tallinnkot, he quietly hid his "treasure" in order to wait for a favorable opportunity to deal a heavy blow to the US army.
Changes in the U.S. military.
All countries knew very well that the pace of war was not far off, and at this time, international oil prices obviously began to rise, soaring all the way to yuan per barrel, and some keen international speculators seized the opportunity and made a lot of money.
The time came on the 6th of January.
Morning.
The U.S. Army's 25th Light Infantry Division and the 2nd Marine Division, mobilized from the Atlantic by air, nearly 50,000 troops, were on standby.
Of course.
The U.S. military will not be stupid enough to directly send infantry, and before attacking Tallinnkot, a cruise missile precision strike and air raid bombing are inevitable.
Only after the air strikes have been completed and the Taliban's vital threat facilities have been assured will they begin to allow land forces to storm and occupy the city of Tallinnkot. This is also one of the means by which the U.S. military proposes "zero casualties" in the war, although they have not really achieved "zero casualties", but compared with his first team, the U.S. military has done a very good job.
US electronic reconnaissance planes circled back and forth in southern Afghanistan, monitoring the movements of the Taliban and searching for the distribution of Taliban's heavy weapons.
Time.
The sky over the Taliban-controlled area seems to be shrouded in a huge net, and the atmosphere of the war is becoming more and more intense.
What is even more shocking is that the US military has urgently transferred two B-2 "Phantom" strategic bombers and 10 old B-52 "Lancer" strategic bombers. Such a powerful deterrent force, let alone against a small Taliban, even if it bombs the whole of Afghanistan, is not impossible.
Furthermore.
The main fighters F-22 "Raptor", F-35 "Lightning", and the relatively weak FD aircraft group all appeared on the battlefield in Afghanistan, as if it had become a real weapons and equipment exhibition.
More importantly, the 25th Light Infantry Division, as one of the 10 active divisions of the US Army, was inexplicably crippled by the Taliban.
……
Until noon.
At the air base controlled by the US military, as well as the two Pakistani air bases borrowed in advance, all kinds of fighters are taking off and landing frequently to adapt to the environment. At the same time, large military transport planes were also taking off and landing non-stop, and soldiers, weapons, ammunition, supplies, and medicines were being transported to the rear of the US military one after another.
The war has not yet begun, and the US military's logistics and transportation units have already started in an all-round way.
Good deeds, perhaps, will ask.
The U.S. military has staged such a big battle to force the Taliban to agree to release the U.S. prisoners, aren't you afraid that the Taliban will suddenly agree at the last moment of the ultimatum and let the U.S. military work blindly?
You want to.
Now the U.S. military is working hard for the war, like blood, and is so excited that it will wait for 3:20 p.m. to blow up the Taliban and cry for their mother.
If the Taliban suddenly agree to release prisoners of war, leaving the US military without an excuse for war, it will not be choked to death.
Perhaps, ordinary people will have these doubts.
But.
Some military strategy researchers, as well as politicians and think tanks in various countries, have seen things clearly, and no matter whether the Taliban release US military prisoners or not, the US military's determination to eliminate the Taliban will not change.
The rapid growth of the Taliban has threatened the security of the US military in Afghanistan and harmed the interests of the United States.
War.
It is impossible to avoid it anymore, and a few days ago, the US president sent a special envoy to conduct "prisoner of war talks", on the one hand, to appease the people, and on the other hand, to find out the bottom of the Taliban and make the most comprehensive preparations for war.
Right now.
When the time comes, you won't be negotiable!
……
……
……
Afternoon.
At three o'clock, it was only 20 minutes before the ultimatum issued by the US military.
"Admiral Kate, when the time comes, teach the Taliban a hard lesson, and show no mercy. This piece has lost its value. "President Rom, through a special line cautiously ordered the commander-in-chief of the Afghan theater of operations.
"Yes, Your Excellency."
Kate straightened up and replied in a loud voice. Then, after a pause, he asked worriedly, "President, so far the intelligence bureau has not found out whether Darkstar has sold missiles to the Taliban...... Missiles have always been the key to Admiral Kate's worries, and he knows that since Darkstar can produce fighters, gunships, and even bombers for the US military, there will be no problem in producing missiles.
"Admiral Kate, rest assured, even though the Intelligence Bureau has not yet received effective information. However, in the case of Omar's madman gambler, if he had mastered the missile, it would have been used in the surprise attack on Christmas Eve. Rohm reassured.
When Kate heard this, she felt that it made sense, and her heart was much more relaxed.
……
"The U.S. government hopes that the Taliban will give up their hatred and release the prisoners, so as not to bring war to the Afghan people. It is impossible to threaten the United States by shooting prisoners. Stephen said solemnly through the news media.
At this time.
Due to the tense confrontation between the US military and the Taliban in Afghanistan, the news media of various countries have wisely adopted the situation of live news broadcasting, and reported what happened in Afghanistan to their own countries as soon as possible.
Stephen's speech just fell.
The Taliban spokesman over there also jumped out and shouted at the news media, "Americans, it's just too despicable and shameless, the Taliban, as a just army in Afghanistan's anti-aggression war, treats the enemy indiscriminately, and will not indiscriminately abuse prisoners, shooting prisoners is even more nonsense, the United States is slandering, they are looking for an excuse to start a war and deceive their voters!" ”
Stephen derisively took out a pile of examples of the Taliban launching terrorist attacks and killing hundreds of innocent people, proving that the Taliban are evil and cruel.
on this.
The spokesman of the Taliban has no choice but to avoid the sharp edge, he understands that what the Americans say is the truth, but he will never admit it head-on, and diverting attention is the best way.
"The Taliban forces, aimed at safeguarding the interests of the Afghan people and country, have no intention of becoming enemies of the Americans, and moreover, they also hope for the conditional release of US prisoners of war. However, the Americans, in order to achieve ulterior motives, refused to redeem the captives! The Taliban spokesman wisely ignored the hefty ransom demands.
……
"What? Refusal to ransom captives? The media was shocked, and the people sitting in front of the televisions, especially Americans, couldn't believe it.
In order to start a war, the United States actually filled the pockets of arms dealers and deliberately ruined the "prisoner of war negotiations"!
