Red Alert Somalia

Chapter 536

"But what kind of mercenary can be worth five billion dollars?"

Li Lan said the most critical point here. At first, Blackwater was hired by the U.S. Department of Defense to undertake many tasks in the Iraq War, and the reward was only two billion U.S. dollars. Such mercenary orders have already It can be called the first order in the mercenary world.Letting mercenaries fight against the regular army of a country, although it is not without such a precedent, there has never been such a huge confrontation.After all, the Somali army is well known to the world and it is not vegetarian.

Hearing Li Lan's words, Jia Si Ding seemed to think of something, with a clear understanding on his face, and said: "A few days ago, the intelligence department received a very popular piece of information, but it did not attract much attention. Many retired U.S. soldiers in the past two years have received a mysterious e-mail, and not only the U.S., but also retired soldiers from many European countries have also received e-mails from the same sender. The sender is exactly The Blackwater Company in the United States. According to a simple investigation, these veterans who received the mail have rich combat experience and participated in the Iraq War or the Afghanistan War. Because they were determined to be the annual routine recruitment of the Blackwater Company at that time, they were not Not taken seriously. If this matter is instigated by NATO, the 5 billion U.S. dollars can give Ethiopia at least 30,000 and at most 50,000 mercenaries with rich combat experience to help."

"If this matter is true as we judged, then Gilma is already the last fight. Five billion U.S. dollars is equivalent to Ethiopia's fiscal revenue for a year. I really dare to fight." Li Lan said lightly.

"I will arrange it right away and figure this out as soon as possible." Jia Si Ding said.

"Time must be as fast as possible, Ethiopia must completely calm down in the next two months." Li Lan said.

Mandatory mission 3 of the base gave him only half a year. If he cannot take the Ethiopian land as his own as soon as possible.And as soon as possible to raise people's minds, it will completely disrupt the plan and quickly lead to the failure of the mission.

NATO's move caught him off guard, but fortunately, there is still time.But if it is slowed down because of the war, that would be bad.And he must also consider how to eliminate the tens of thousands of mercenaries that are likely to appear in a short time.

If there are really fifty thousand mercenaries coming out of the battlefield, plus NATO-supported weapons, it will be another tough battle.After all, the number of the Red Police Corps' army is only 50,000.

If it is going to be a corps-type battle.For Li Lan, that was the result he was looking forward to most.However, this situation is estimated to be difficult to occur. After all, the coalition could not defeat the Somali army in the battle, and the enemy would not be stupid enough to formulate that ignorant tactic again.

A reasonable tactic is to break some of the mercenaries into pieces and enter the rear of the occupied area to start guerrilla warfare.If the Ethiopian government’s incitement is added to cause the Ethiopians in the occupied territories to join the resistance, the result will be difficult to control.

Once this guess comes true, it is really difficult to resolve, and there are too many variables.In addition, Somalia will also fall into a passive state. The occupied area is not very stable. It is very likely that it is like the situation of the US military in Iraq.Running around and struggling to deal with it, and those mercenaries are not scattered guerrillas, with excellent combat literacy and advanced weapons and equipment, the threats are more than those of Iraqi guerrillas.This matter has to be taken seriously.

As long as there is any negligence, the Red Police Corps is likely to be like the US military in Iraq at the time, and the result is naturally very sad.

This is by no means alarmist. Whether it is for NATO or Ethiopia, it is natural to drive the Somali army out of Ethiopia at the least cost.In addition, it is local combat, occupying the right time and place.Even if Li Lan is in charge, he will choose guerrilla tactics to bring down Somalia at a small price.After all, the mercenaries have to pay a lot of pensions after they die.Naturally, we must guard against mass casualties.

"Yes, I will make arrangements right away."

Jia Si Ding nodded and was about to leave. At this time, Li Lan called to him and asked, "Is there any progress in the work of removing spies last time."

"The target has been found, but there is no alarm. We intend to lead the snake out of the hole and give the CIA a ruthless one." Jia Si Ding said.

"Well, be careful, go down!"

After Jia Si Ding left, Li Lan went directly to the command center on the second floor of the base. The news brought by the intelligence department was very bad.If it doesn't, the war to invade Ethiopia will be lost.

At that time, not only the base mission could not be completed, but also the military deterrence that had been accumulated with great difficulty would plummet.Not sloppy.

When entering the command center, Li Lan immediately told Tan Ya inside: "Convene an emergency military meeting."

Soon, in the military conference room next to the command center, all officers who were qualified to come in were on the scene at the fastest speed under Tan Ya's notice.

After the last person walked in, Li Lan immediately announced that the meeting would begin immediately, and asked Natasha to distribute the information and guesses that had just been copied to everyone, and introduced the situation in detail.

The generals in the conference room obviously didn't expect such an accident to happen suddenly, and they quickly thought of the danger of this kind of thing, and their faces were not very good.

"Let's talk about it, everyone! How should we deal with this matter?" Five minutes passed, and Li Lan spoke after everyone had read the content of the meeting.

"Commander, can this matter be resolved by political and diplomatic means?" Army Commander Lieutenant General Hoffmander asked first.

Li Lan shook his head simply and said: "It's useless, just like we sent troops to Ethiopia, the international is not without us. Moreover, the mercenary affairs are carried out by the means of international companies. We do not directly The evidence points out that it was NATO's military intervention. There is no direct and strong evidence for the arms aid trade between Ethiopia and NATO. With just a word of ours, there is no way to take NATO. The most is to protest. What the other party should do is still to do. ."

Hoffmand said: "I have always been puzzled before. The Ethiopian government has gathered a large number of armed forces in the west. The number has been increasing sharply every day. It has recently reached 300,000. But why is it so late? Waiting for this opportunity."

As soon as Hoffmand’s voice fell behind, Ahmed said: “If this matter is really like guessing, then the key to this matter is not to let the opponent’s mercenaries work, can it be here? Previously, we directly occupied the entire Ethiopia and occupied those minerals. When the time comes, we will see if anyone will come to pay Ethiopian military expenses again."

Ahmed's words quickly resonated with many people. As he said, this is the most direct way.Anyway, they have sent troops to Ethiopia, occupying more than 60% of their land, and don’t care about the last piece of territory.

However, Hoffmander simply shook his head simply and said: "This method can solve the immediate trouble, but it will bring us endless trouble in the future. You know, the population of Ethiopia is a Somali population. Our foundation is the Somali ethnic group. The hatred among all ethnic groups will erupt at any time, and there will definitely be troubles."

Ahmed did not give up his opinion on this, saying: "We occupy the entire territory of Ethiopia, and it does not necessarily have to be included in our territory. At that time, we can support a puppet government and still retain the land we occupy now."

Hoffmand was not convinced by Ahmed, saying: "We can use less than 20,000 troops, but there are 300,000 on the opposite side. Your garrison has to stabilize the situation in the occupied area. I can't move. Just ask how 20,000 troops can occupy the next 400,000 square kilometers of land.

Moreover, you think things are too simple. If we support the puppet government, the land we occupy will not be preserved. Don’t forget, there is another NATO opposite us, and the public opinion offensive will easily take us. Submerged.Not to forget, our core purpose of sending troops to Ethiopia."

Hearing Hoffmander's words, Ahmed was silent. It seemed that he could not find a good reason to fight back, so he could only silently acknowledge Hoffmand's words.

"Do other people have any comments?" Li Lan, who had been silent after opening the topic, said again after the two people had finished their argument.

The others have remained silent one after another, and have not yet figured out a good way to deal with it.Li Lan did not urge, and he was thinking about it in his heart.

Li Lan did not think about the method given by Ahmed, but as Hoffmand said, the Red Police Corps currently lacks the strength of the entire Ethiopian territory.And the follow-up impact is too great. He has not yet endured the international pressure caused by annihilating a country.

At that time, the entire NATO can organize him vigorously, and all kinds of spearheads can be aimed at him alone.However, China and Russia were unable to express their solidarity positively because of national policy issues.This kind of pressure is beyond his tolerance.

Li Lan looked at Tan Ya, hoping that she could give a better countermeasure. Feeling Li Lan’s gaze, Tan Ya did not let him wait, and said, "This kind of thing is not impossible. , First of all, no matter whether this matter will come true or not, we must make a good response strategy. My strategy is very simple, that is, to immediately implement the planned separation policy, as long as NATO weapons and mercenaries arrive, let Ethiopia immediately entered a state of civil war. In this way, we can share our pressure.

And we are not fighting alone, there is a helper, and that is Ethiopia's rival-Eritrea."
