ps: A new day, a new week, please move your mouse and vote for a few recommendations!

——————

The meeting was held in the base, and when Li Lan opened the door and walked in, a slight discomfort flashed across his face.

In the meeting room, most of the people were talking very excitedly, and their voices were one after another, as if they had encountered some great happy event.

It wasn't until Li Lan walked in that the voice gradually subsided.

Words such as greatness and victory also disappeared in the meeting room as everyone heard their voices. Li Lan did not speak, and quietly walked to his place.

Looking around the people in the entire conference room, Li Lan saw that 80% of the people's faces were full of joy, which was completely reversed from the tension in the previous meeting.

Among the crowd, only three people did not show a smile, Farah, Muhammad, and Kahin, these three did not show joy, on the contrary there was a trace of worry on their faces.

"Everyone is happy, why are the three of you not laughing? The war is over, we have secured our foundation, and Somalia is still ours." Under normal circumstances, the meeting started after Li Lan came in. However, Li Lan did not start the topic of today's meeting. Instead, he asked the three people on his left and right. At the end, he also added a special question: "Isn't this war worthy of the three of you happy?"

Hearing what Li Lan said, the three of Farah looked at each other. After a while, Farah got up and tidied his clothes, and bowed respectfully to Li Lan: "As a Somali. I have a lot of gratitude for you, but Did we really win this war?"

Having said this, Farah turned to face the people in the conference room, stared at everyone sitting very seriously, and slowly said: "As Mr. President said, this war has not been ours from the beginning. Yes. We have not won this war today. This is only a short-term peace. The enemy can no longer fight, and they have to reconcile with us. So. Can this ending be called victory?

do not forget.In order to maintain our advantage in military strategy, we still have large tracts of land in the hands of the enemy, and their tanks and soldiers are still on our land.Citizens of southern cities and Somali.It is still in an enemy-occupied zone.

At this time.I really can't be happy, because there are too many things that require us to continue to work hard."

When Farah said this, a deep guilt flashed across his face.The corner of his eye flashed, and he tried to keep his tears in his eyes, and continued: "Do you know what we have paid in this war? Have you ever thought about what we have lost in just a few days.

For me, we are losers in this war.What if we defeated the four powers, but what we gain cannot make up for our own losses.Although I don't know how much the military has paid in this war, I don't know how to calculate it.It can block the opponent's fighter planes, tanks, and artillery outside our city, and can make the enemy's missile strikes return without success. It is still the world's most powerful military group.If we can fight the other side cannot bear the next war, then what price will we have to bear!

When I think of this, I can't be happy."

Following Farah's words, the atmosphere in the conference room gradually became serious, and the joy on everyone's faces quickly faded.

Li Lan was expressionless, glanced at Muhammad and Kahin from the corner of his eyes, and continued to remain silent.

As a relatively new member of this political group, Kashin has now gained the trust of Li Lan. He has gradually brought himself into this group. A moment after Farah’s voice ended, he also stood up and said: " In the eyes of ordinary people, this war is extremely worthy of joy. It can be said that we have proven our worth and won international affirmation. From then on, we will never underestimate us Somalis. However, we are not ordinary people and can go. Everyone who enters this conference room is the core figure of the Somali regime.

To put it bluntly, the more happy ordinary people are, we must work harder and be more careful.As Farah said just now, as we in high positions, we can no longer see the manifest nature of things.

Mr. President often warns us that Somalia is just beginning now. To occupy a place in the world, it needs comprehensive national strength, not just an army.There is no economy, no national cohesion, no strong industrial foundation, and a strong military alone is just a paper tiger."

When Kashin said this, he picked up the file in front of him, opened it, and said again: "This war does have something to please us, but there are also many things that we must bear. Because of this war , The economy that we have just established with great difficulty is facing a great test.

In one week, all of our economic operations were basically stopped, and all factories were also shut down. The harm caused by the weak economic foundation was further revealed.We have issued Somali shillings for less than a month. Due to the halt of industry and the cessation of business operations, the new currency has been extremely severely hit...

Therefore, I hope that when you think about the side of victory, you will not forget the disastrous side brought about by this victory. It is impossible for us to be like ordinary people. We can go home to sleep after we are happy. If we encounter problems, we can pray to Allah.When problems are encountered, they must be dealt with as soon as possible. The reconstruction work after the war, let alone any negligence..."

Hearing the speeches of the two, Li Lan understood their feelings somewhat.To be honest, Li Lan was very satisfied with the result of this war, but he was really happy.Although this war is a huge victory for all the benefits that this war will bring in the future.

But whether it was the price that Farah said, or Kashin's talk of a waste of time, Li Lan was not very happy at the moment.

The political group he wants is a highly united and highly efficient political group. The entire group must have one mind and all strengths.

Governing a country is by no means a simple matter. Li Lan has long understood this. With the help of foreign enemies, Somalia will still be struggling.The difficulties will never be less than in the past.

Li Lan also felt very pleased with the ideas of Farah and Kashin. Their thoughts and actions were more in line with his wishes and were able to do things.

Mohammedi, who was next to him, saw that both of them spoke one after another. As the one who has been with Li Lan for the longest time, he is definitely not Wu Xia Amon now. Under Li Lan’s training, Muhammedi has been trained With higher education, he has also become very mature with experience, able to share a lot of Li Lan's things, and the efficiency and results of his work make Li Lan basically unable to fault.

At this time, Mohammedi also stood up after Kahin finished speaking. He was relatively rude and lacked a little literary style in his words, but he was not rough in his words. "In 1991, Mogadishu let the United States take the blame. And return, today we are still letting the United States go down, something that seems very simple, but always tells us that these things were hard-won.

I very much support everyone to celebrate after the meeting, because we are the first hard bone that the United States can’t eat since the information age. It is not Iraq, Afghanistan, or Libya. Our leader is not Saddam. Nor is it sad Gaddafi.

But before we celebrate, we must do our own thing better. First, we must think about how to drive the group of European and American whites out of our country and completely restore the complete sovereignty of Somalia.This is the fundamental. The coalition forces have to send people over to negotiate, and we have to think about how to fight for what belongs to us.

There is a saying in the West that things that cannot be obtained in war must be taken back from the negotiating table by all means.White people think so, and we think so.Only by completely taking back what belongs to us, we can celebrate with great fun.So now everyone is so happy, it's too early.I prefer to put my smile in the back of the enemy's negotiating team leaving dingy."

"Sit down!" After the three of them expressed their views one after another, Li Lan said at the right time. The reality made all three of them sit down, and he continued: "Just now, all three of them made a lot of sense. But let me introduce more. The purpose of this meeting today is mainly to discuss post-war reconstruction and who to send to negotiate with the enemy."

After Li Lan made the beginning of the meeting, her voice changed, saying: "However, before I say this, I need to tell you some statistics. I must have listened to these statistics, and everyone will have a deeper understanding of this war. To be honest, I have never had a sincere smile in this war, because the price we paid is no less than the enemy.

For the consumption of weapons and equipment, all expenditures are my personal pockets. If the government is allowed to bear the consumption of this war, then according to our fiscal revenue last year, we can't afford it even if we don't eat or drink for 50 years.When I say this, you may not have a deeper picture yet. Let me give you an example. Our medium-range surface-to-ballistic missile costs nearly 20 million US dollars.Counted by attacking the USS Bush aircraft carrier, for this we used 60 medium-range ballistic missiles, and US$1.2 billion was exchanged for US$10 billion in losses. We did make a profit, but if we let the government’s experience bear it , Somalia’s economy will fall into crisis. On the other hand, the United States is just a stab at it. Ten billion U.S. dollars is completely within the tolerance of the United States’ finances.

This is the economic gap between the two countries. Why I always emphasize the comprehensive national strength. This is one of the reasons. Without the economy, we cannot fight any war."
