Chapter 772: Interests Are Fundamental One
Wu Beixin, chief executive of the Federal Government of the Golden Triangle, held a press conference in the government office building and announced to the world that the federal government will hold a grand ceremony for the founding of the country on September 1 this year, and heads of state and dignitaries are welcome to attend this celebration ceremony. Although there are less than four months to go, it is enough for a seven-day-a-week ceremony.
In fact, even if there is no ceremony, the Golden Triangle Federation is also a member state that pays fees to the General Assembly, which means that all countries in the world have recognized the qualifications, obligations and responsibilities of the Golden Triangle Federation. However, according to international practice, such a big event must be celebrated with a grand ceremony to make its voice heard to the world.
Wu Chen didn't have any special intention in choosing this date, when the mercenary corps was established, I don't remember it very clearly, I vaguely recalled that it should have been around March before returning to Los Angeles from South Africa, but this time had already passed.
With the coalition forces and mercenaries fighting in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the United States is bound to be dissatisfied with European countries and Japan, and the support for mercenaries will continue to be strengthened.
But considering the founding of the Golden Triangle Federation, it is estimated that the U.S. government, which claims to be the backstage of the mercenary corps, is bound to give a big gift, and four months is enough time for them to prepare a gift list.
"We, Exxon Oil, Chevron Energy, ConocoPhillips, Texaco, and other ten companies, support Atlantis Mineral Resources' dominance of the African market, and the Golden Triangle Federation is an energy-poor country, and we understand this special situation, according to Mr. Marcas, you account for 60 percent, and we American companies account for 40 percent, and at the same time, our oil wells and pipelines in Africa are entrusted to mercenaries for protection, and 10 percent of the cost is settled in cash." In a private estate, Marcas struck a deal with the energy giants of the United States.
As long as American companies support mercenaries to drive out the power of European countries, then the proportion of European companies will be divided by everyone, these energy giants are not fools, which side of the balance of victory is tilted, has long been answered from the government and the military, and the agreement has been signed happily.
There is no doubt that Angola, Algeria and Sudan, which are the traditional territories of the mercenary corps and the Atlantis Mineral Resources Company, are of interest to Libya and Nigeria, and Marcas proposed the need for South Africa's mineral resources, and this condition has been recognized by American companies.
"South Africa is one of the driving forces behind the fierce fighting in the DRC, which has resulted in a large number of casualties in the Afrika Korps, and our mercenary corps is very unhappy with the behavior of this country, believing that its leader is no longer up to the task, so we have begun to contact another faction in the country to prepare for cooperation. Originally, there was nothing to do with your family, so you had to get involved and find a beating, so don't blame us for being rude! Marcas said.
To put it bluntly, the war in the Democratic Republic of the Congo is not a big deal, there are disputes in the country, and then Uganda and Rwanda sent troops to help, wanting to make some benefits, who knows that after the new government is formed, Mr. President will not admit it, and he will drive out the armies of the two countries, and these two countries will turn around and start supporting the rebels again, and the new government will ask mercenaries to help. It's not complicated to say, that's it!
Originally, the mercenary corps sent the Afrika Korps into the Democratic Republic of the Congo to end the war soon, and everyone knows an irrefutable fact, whether it is Uganda or Rwanda, or those rebels in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, they are not the opponents of the Afrika Korps, and they are not a level contest at all! As a result, the countries of Europe, Japan, South Africa, and Indo all got involved, making it like a world war.
"The M1 Abrams main battle tank series is the pride of our US Army, up to now, a total of more than 8,800 units have been produced, which is currently the most mature third-generation main battle tank in the world, and the actual combat of the Gulf War has also verified its appropriateness, with a probability of 90 percent, superior and stable performance."
"And in the past six years, your mercenary regiment has successively acquired 6,656 vehicles, which is much more than the number of our US Army has in possession, of course, most of them are obsolete M1A1 models."
"Germany, Italy, Spain and the Netherlands, with the help of Sweden, mass-produced Leopard 2A6 main battle tanks, France made Leclerc main battle tanks, Britain made Challenger 2 main battle tanks, Japan made 90 main battle tanks, and Indo bought Russian T90 main battle tanks, all of which were actions to deal with mercenaries."
"The U.S. government has decided to help you upgrade all of your M1A1 main battle tanks to the M1A2-SEP model, add a second-generation thermal imaging system, a commander's independent thermal imager, a true color flat display, a digital topographic map and a thermal control system, as well as the latest digital command, control and communication equipment, into digital tanks, and charge a cost of $500,000 per vehicle." The Secretary of War said to Marcas in the conference room.
"The U.S. government will produce 3,000 sets of upgraded electronic equipment in three months, and provide the same amount of depleted uranium armor, as well as 30,000 barrels of 120 mm smoothbore guns, and the rest will need to be produced by mercenary corps, and we will provide the technology for free."
"According to the production rate of the main battle tank, it is already very good to make a new Leopard 2 tank every day, but we adopt a streamlined operation transformation, only replace some equipment, and we can reach an average of ten vehicles a day, and the quantity and quality are advantageous."
"In order to demonstrate the industrial strength and production capacity of the United States, the government decided to sell 700 of the latest M1A2-SEP main battle tanks to the mercenary corps at an ultra-low price of four million dollars each, and 2,000 of the latest model M2A3 Bradley infantry fighting vehicles to the mercenary corps at a price of one million dollars each, note that these are new equipment that has just begun to be manufactured." said the Minister of Defense.
Damn, how can the US government start collecting money now, it's not a symbolic collection of money, even if it's a new M1A2-SEP main battle tank, the military procurement price is about four million dollars, and the purchase price of the M2A3 Bradley infantry fighting vehicle is only one million dollars, which is equivalent to only giving a cost price, and it is not a cheap one!
The new president is not as generous as before, which is not a good thing, although it is good to be able to get the cost price, but the problem is that you have to buy it with real money! Marcus felt quite uncomfortable in his heart, but he was also a long-time battle-hardened person, and there was no dissatisfaction on his face, and he was very serious about jotting down the data on the paper.
