Chapter 149: Oaths Are All Liars!

"This month's deficit looks like it's going to be exceeded!"

"Uh, it's okay, there is such a saying, the more companies that can owe debts, the more powerful!"

"But we are not a listed company, the company's profits and losses are borne by yourself!"

Helen Parker, who kept swaying on the table with her two long legs on the table, looked like she had nothing to do with me, she was just here to work for Shepard, and the profit and loss had nothing to do with her, the company went bankrupt, and she could still run away to find a home.

"How can this be, the company is all of us, serving all of us, what you are eating now, which one is not provided by the company!"

"So what?"

"So the company's profits and losses should be borne by everyone, Parker, I won't pay your salary next month, just dedicate yourself to the company, how about fighting for youth?"

"Looks like I need to think about the CIA's work!"

"Then you just wait to be used as a hot weapon by the perverted old white man!"

"You're not talking about a perverted white man!"

"Then you're a perverted white girl!"

"As much as I'd love to keep watching you argue, I feel the need to interrupt you because we're in a meeting!"

Hannibal, who was looking through a report, said without looking up.

Seeing that the two stopped, Hannibal raised his head and continued.

"At present, our support for Zabi can still hold on, but the output of the gold mine is a little unsustainable!"

"Why, depleted?"

"No, it's mainly because we still have stocks of ore that we consumed before, and those stocks have supported the expenses for a while, but after the stocks are depleted, it is difficult for us to make any big moves just by mining them every month, and besides, I have to remind you that our aviation fuel reserves have also dropped to dangerous levels!"

"Ah, I remember not long ago, didn't you just come back from Standard Oil with three base reserves?"

Shepard was immediately furious when he heard this, what he hated most in his life was gas guzzlers, and Shepard, who was shooting the case, was about to call someone, and then Hannibal turned the pen in his hand.

"But it's almost consumed, you asked the Huey formation to strengthen the drill, and they are already saved!"

"Damn, what about the share of oil allocated to us in the contract?"

"It's also consuming, we currently have forty trucks running for transportation, and there are support for Zabi, plus the daily patrol of armored vehicles, there is not much left!"

"Besides, there's bad news!"

"What's the news?"

"At the moment the Portuguese are tracing the source of the rockets, although it may not be possible to find us, but I personally recommend that we should be careful in the near future.

"Damn, these Portuguese, what's the disease, it's not just us who bombed them, the Anren are the happiest to bomb them, the Soviets have brought all the 132mm rockets, what are they doing with us?"

"Probably, let's start first!"

"Then you can't blame us, a slap doesn't make a sound, even if we are 99% wrong, he, the Portuguese, is not at fault? Occupy such abundant oil resources, but don't give others a share at all, how can there be such a reason! ”

"But isn't this oil from Angola?"

"Angola, the Angolan people certainly don't mind!"

"But the Portuguese don't mind, and even they will communicate with you with tanks and artillery!"

"It's okay, I'll make a move!"

Shepard knocked on the table, closing the meeting.

"The financial problem will be slowed down first, at least delayed for a while!"

"How can this be delayed, weapons, ammunition, and fuel can't be handled by mouth!"

"I know, so you can save on other things!"

"But it's not a long-term solution!"

"Yes, so our agreement with Zabi has to be cashed out first!"

In fact, in terms of value, Lunda Norte is not a good place, because this province located in the northern plateau does not have much oil, which is why there are not too many troops in this place, most of the Angolan oil is concentrated in the coastal and coastal provinces, which are not only the places where the Portuguese army is heavily stationed, but also the important place for the various resistance forces, it can be said that Lunda Norte is a barren land with no oil and water compared to those areas.

However, people are in a hurry that a toad can also take out two or two urine, not to mention that there is an oil field in North Longda.

It's just that these oil fields are not on Zabi's territory, they are further south, and belong to other tribes.

"And what do you want to do?"

"Three ways, treat, behead, accept as a dog!"

Although Shepard listed three methods, he himself had already judged what method should be used, at least it was useless to invite guests and accept them as dogs, because first, they were not familiar with each other, and secondly, that tribe had a better partner, yes, it was the Portuguese, after all, Angola at the moment, there was no better partner than the Portuguese.

In any case, the Portuguese were also old colonial empires, and their ability to collect dogs was not bad, and they were happy to give up part of the profits from the oil fields to the tribes who listened to them, and their servant army was mostly recruited from these tribes.

So, in a way, it's a good thing to do them!

"Let's make a plan, how can we get them to get into trouble with the Portuguese first?"

Shepard looked at Helen, after all, she has a doctorate in international relations, so she can at least give a more professional opinion!

"A lot, cultural differences, social concepts, and division of interests can make these guys have conflicts, but the first two take time, and the latter is faster, but I don't think they can make trouble at the moment!"

"Well, I have an idea, since a servant is a master, can we start from this aspect?"

"For example?"

"I haven't figured out the exact operation yet, but I think it's better to separate the servant army from the Portuguese regular army first!"

Shepard scratched his face and said embarrassedly.

"I just came up with a slogan called Angolans don't fight Angolans, what do you think?"

"Straightforward, straightforward, but are you sure that's what you're thinking?"

Parker raised an eyebrow and said with a bit of amusement.

"Then you should think of it!"

Shepard is not the slightest bit embarrassed, can he say that he steals the matter of military contractors? That's called borrowing!

Although the Portuguese have opened up good conditions for the servant army in peacetime, whether it can be achieved is another matter, look at Vietnam, look at Afghanistan, when the master runs away, the status of the servant army is even inferior to that of dogs! After all, dogs have exclusive places, and the servant army can only hang up the landing gear!
