Chapter 658: Capital Mercenaries
The boss came to the front line in person and let P· The morale of all the people has been raised......
The base preparation, which had been dragged out before, picked up the pace with the arrival of Joga.
In fact, the main reason is that the situation here is too bad, and the distance to Mosul is too close, which leads to attacks on the entrance here, and the defensive pressure on the base is too great.
Almost all military contracting companies are encouraging P· B moved the logistics center back to the Gaiara base, because it was only 40 kilometers from Mosul, but the defensive pressure was many times less.
As long as P· B moves to Gaiara, and the mercenaries can be justifiably lazy.
After all, you have to run 40 kilometers to get to work, and you can't ask people to do too much!
It's a pity that Boss Qiao has his own ethics, took over other people's oil fields, contracted other people's logistics, and promised to let the people on the front line have a hot meal, so he will do what he says.
Besides, Boss Joe is still an arms dealer, and the equipment of the Iraqi government army is not bad, but doesn't the ammunition replenishment still need to be provided?
This is big business, and the oil is in the hands of Boss Qiao, and the Rumaila oil field, which is responsible for the two barrels of oil, will soon resume work, and the 'white strips' will soon be exchanged for cash.
The logistics channel is initially opened, and what more convenient place is it than to provide supplies on the front line?
Selling bullets at the front, the asking price is 50% higher than usual, it is simply not too reasonable.
Don't look at Boss Qiao like 'Master Bayi' who is crazy about squeezing the profits of the war, but in fact, Boss Qiao is still in a state of paying for the war, and the cannons, armored vehicles, weapons, and ammunition sent by Sevia all have to be paid.
Maintaining four half-civilian and half-army military bases is no longer as simple as burning money for Qiaojia, a private boss, it is pouring money into the crematorium.
If it weren't for Huaguo Energy's provision of 'crude oil pre-sale business' for the production of the Rumaila field, and it would have provided a flexible billing model and a large number of sponsorships.
Before the humanitarian channel achieved large-scale profitability, Boss Qiao's big business in Iraq is estimated to cost him most of his net worth.
In order to subsidize a little family, it is simply natural to provide support to mercenaries and collect some fees.
And his asking price is a conscience price, and some are even cheaper than mercenary companies themselves.
As far as the simplest air support is concerned, a helicopter of 20,000 sorties is not expensive at all compared to the mercenary group's own helicopters.
Missiles are a little more expensive, but that's a little.
Don't look at the people in those mercenary groups, in fact, what they complain about is not the high price, but the ease with which the support comes, which leads to the frequent call for artillery fire by the mercenaries on the front line, resulting in a lot of meaningless waste.
Mercenary companies don't spend taxpayers' money, they calculate costs!
P· The support system provided by B was too simple and crude, and the artillerymen showed great efficiency in order to attract customers.
In fact, in actual combat, calling for artillery support has a very complicated set of procedures in all regular troops, and it requires special soldiers to be trained to complete the guidance and call on the front line.
Only company-level units have such soldiers!
Air support is a bit more complicated, and the control group on the front line even has to plan in advance the direction of entry of fighters or air forces, the angle of fire, and even the type of ammunition.
The regular armies of all the great powers are refined, but P· B does the opposite, simplifying everything......
As long as you use your own radio, announce your own team code and code, and then guide the location and wait for up to 5 minutes, the cannonballs will come to your aid.
Is it dangerous?
Particularly dangerous!
But is it worth it?
If it's surrounded, who cares about it?
Now it's even harder, helicopters, fixed-wing aircraft, and even jet fighters.
This is the real 'big business', and it is also the inevitable loss in the big orders taken by those big companies.
You wear and tear yourself, it is better to let P· Gang B 'loses', who does this money earn or not?
P· B actually saved them trouble, but because the action was too simple and crude, this loss of the mercenary company was magnified.
Because it is really too simple, in the past, when the helicopters did not come, the range of 155 howitzers in the base could cover the entire city of Mosul.
P· The advanced fire control system used by the B artillery can control the error within a radius of 50 meters.
This is really a life-saving thing, and there is no call barrier, that is, there are not so many cumbersome links, and you can call for support if you can speak human words.
P· B's 'irregularity' is a boon for mercenaries who are so mixed up that they want to eat with guns.
Mercenaries from many other countries have not enjoyed the treatment of being able to call in artillery shells or air support when they pick up the radio and shout at their throats for more than ten years.
Moreover, the flat call makes it impossible for the managers of the large companies who stay in the base to find an excuse to shirk.
This is where a few large companies can't stand it......
Human life is actually a cost number for them, and if it continues like this, their profit margins will be compressed a lot!
So they complained all kinds of bitterness, and in the end they didn't point to making P· B conceded profits, but wanted to set up call barriers and join the support command group at the same time.
At best, it is called 'regularization' and 'security', but at worst, it increases the cost of calling for front-line mercenaries.
The reality is so fucking and incredible, the mercenaries that the giant companies recruit from places like South America and Eastern Europe are not worth anything in their eyes.
And the war dogs who follow the giants' butts and eat the leftovers, unless their actions come to a critical moment and their support pays off, how can you expect the giants to waste money on them?
According to what the man with the triple canopy said to Joga......
"Artillery fire and air support can be provided, but it must be within the company's budget.
We are happy to entrust this part of the business to P· B, but we have to have some control, and we can't let the mercenaries on the front line waste the company's money.
If we can't agree on this, we'll mobilize our own helicopters to come as cover.
Rockets and machine-gun bullets are really cheap. ”
The cost and risk control implemented by the capital-based war company is reflected in the cruelty of the front line.
No one cares what Mosul will turn out to be, and many even hope that the war will be extended so that they can get more contracts.
When Mosul becomes the focal point of Iraq, the situation in the south will gradually stabilize.
When several large oil fields began to resume work, the Iraqi government had money.
And the lobbyists, technical advisers, agents and the like who are left in Baghdad by big corporations will start encouraging the Iraqi government to buy high-level arms, buy high-level military services, and then send them to the front line to fill the holes.
This is where the important interests of the American military-industrial complex lie!
A lot of the politics, policies, and even wars of the United States are in the service of the military-industrial complex.
From the attack on Iraq, it can be seen that the old Sana'a is indeed looking for death, but in fact, the United States has gained the most not the oil conglomerate as people think, but the military-industrial complex.
They gnawed a large chunk of the old US military spending, and then through the US government by means of gifts or forced purchases, they were eating a mouthful of oil and water from the Iraqi government.
These two figures alone can make many people jaw-dropping.
Not to mention the fact that this huge complex moves and produces a mess of derivative benefits.
The annual demand for mercenaries of $100 billion has effectively created a series of military contractors in the United States.
Now they are repeating this routine in Ah Poor Khan, but unfortunately Ah Poor Khan himself is too poor, and it is always Lao Mei himself who is transfusing blood to the puppet government.
The military-industrial complex is still very comfortable eating the military expenses of the US military, but without the bite of the Apoor Khan government, the profit is always almost meaningless, and when there are more places in the United States that need money, that plate will end sooner or later.
It's a huge complex that encompasses energy groups, and capitalization and digitization make this huge bloated complex look very cold and cruel.
Those mercenary giants can only be said to be a part of the military-industrial complex, but the 'businessman' characteristics they show still make Joga dislike it very much.
Joga's business often starts with a single point and then keeps going around in circles to pull a lot of people on board.
And the military-industrial complex intervenes at a point, and then detonates from the inside, so that the opponent loses the ability to resist, and then leads the community of interests to feast.
So Qiaojia has always felt that he is not on the same track as these companies, because everyone's way of thinking and profit methods are completely different.
Faced with the persuasion of a group of mercenary company representatives, Qiao Jia shook his head firmly and refused the other party's request.
If you are not satisfied with what I have done, you can pull things over yourself, and I will provide you with the space to use, and you can pay a little rent for the space.
P· B is doing this business, it doesn't matter if you don't want to pay the bill, we will fly according to the gun, and the mercenaries will pay the bill.
I can even take out a loan to save my life, it doesn't matter if I don't have money, I can keep an account, and as long as you don't die, I can pay for two armed escorts from Basra to Mosul.
If you owe a lot and are not willing to take risks, you will go to the oil fields in the south to stand guard and settle the bills.
Joga's proposal gave all the people in the mercenary company a bit of a toothache......
P· The logistics provided by B are too convenient, relying on military bases, saving too many things and funds for these large companies.
At $200 per person a day, it's not only good food but also safe accommodation.
At this time, if everyone is unhappy, then the rest of the days will be sad.
Especially when they saw a huge reconnaissance airship, unloaded from the truck and inflated......
And after being strongly promoted by Boss Qiao, claiming to have spent tens of millions of dollars to introduce the 'Ding Ding Management System' from Huaguo, they knew that they would definitely not be able to get rid of P· B......
The airship provides precise positioning and signal coverage for digital reconnaissance, and the rear field commander can clearly see the battle situation on the front line, and mercenaries can clock in and out of work, take photos and record KPIs after taking a building or killing a few terrorists......
This is a million-level additional service provided by Boss Joe......
This Nima ......
Who can refuse?
The rejection of paid logistical artillery fire is equivalent to the rejection of the most 'cheap' front-line war service that is best used for mercenary companies.
Boss Qiao's practice of slapping a handful of jujubes made the people of these mercenary companies entangled......
