Forty-eight Kiowa reconnaissance helicopters, twenty-four Apache helicopter gunships, forty-eight Cobra helicopter gunships, four mechanized infantry battalions, more than 200 Bradley infantry fighting vehicles, four armored battalions, more than 200 Abrams main battle tanks, two 227-mm 12-barrel rocket artillery battalions, a total of 54 rocket launchers, as well as maintenance vehicles, transport vehicles and a fleet of Humvee off-road vehicles.
"The U.S. military has made a bloody investment this time, and it has to turn the situation in Somalia around, and look, these weapons and equipment alone are enough for more than two billion US dollars, not counting our personnel salaries and ammunition consumption!" Eric was dumbfounded as he looked at the list of supplies.
"The U.S. military is not so kind, you look generous enough, it's a helicopter and an infantry fighting vehicle and a main battle tank, but these big guys are second-hand, and we don't know if there is a problem with ourselves, once it is damaged, we can only stare dryly, there is no technology and no spare parts, and we can't repair it!"
"Also, if the United States sends troops over, even if the related expenses incurred are not enough even if 20 billion US dollars are not enough, only a batch of weapons, ammunition and military spending can get the desired results, paralyzing, this is the most cost-effective thing." Hunter snorted.
"Yes, the anti-war sentiment in the country is high, and the pressure on the presidential palace and the Ministry of Defense is particularly strong, and they absolutely do not dare to send troops to Somalia again, in order to retaliate against the local armed forces here and show the energy of the superpower, we can only use us to achieve the goal." Thompson agrees with Hunter.
"As far as I know, this kind of M-270 twelve-barrel rocket launcher is at least a heavy weapon that can only be equipped at the level of a mechanized division, and its power is quite terrifying, why did the US military give us this thing, are you still worried that these local armed forces have the possibility of encircling and annihilating us?" Eric was puzzled.
"In short, it's just uneasy and kind, you also know that this thing is too powerful, there is almost no possibility of stock in the coverage area, this is to want us to be charged with butchers, once it is used on a large scale, it will definitely be condemned by international public opinion, and the reputation of our mercenary corps will be stinky!" Hunter said lightly.
"What do you say, Thatch actually ran away from prison? Mr. President, you're not kidding, are you? Wu Chen was stunned when he heard the news.
It's a pity that although he helped SAARC, the other party still dug a big hole for himself, and the trajectory of history has never changed. After Thatch returns to Kosovo, he will definitely form an armed force and start a war with the government again, and the situation in Kosovo will inevitably arouse the attention of the United States again, and continued bombing will be inevitable.
"I can only say that the Hunting Bow 1 anti-aircraft missile system will be delivered as scheduled, I beg your pardon, the mercenary corps is not yet capable of intervening in such a war, and when the time comes, I will bring a technical unit to guide you in dealing with enemy aircraft." After Wu Chen put down his phone, his mood became very depressed.
When people are unlucky, they drink cold water and stuff their teeth, and there is news from Angola that the government is ready to take back some of the offshore oil areas that have signed the agreement, and it is especially not prepared to compensate for liquidated damages.
"Dare to play with me to tear up the agreement, it's like death, does he think he is Hitler? The contract is clearly written in black and white, the oil area we got is a permanent exploitation, you tell this bullshit government, if the spirit of the contract is violated, then wait for force to solve it! Wu Chen slapped the table angrily.
"The oil companies in Europe and the United States have a lot of opinions about us getting so many oil areas, and think that fair competition is in line with the laws of the market, and it seems that they have the support of their respective governments, otherwise Angola would not have such a big boldness." Kirill said.
"How is the temporary airfield in the port now, can strategic bombers be parked?" Wu Chen didn't want to talk nonsense. "No problem, both runways are three thousand meters long, which can fully meet the take-off and landing of strategic bombers." Kirill affirmed.
"I will immediately transfer ten Tu-95SM strategic bombers and ten Tu-22M3 Backfire strategic bombers over, you do a good job of defensive measures, if the other side dares to take action, you can immediately carry out bombing, in addition, I will let the shadow organization look for a new presidential candidate in the local area, your surveillance of the rebels will be lowered, and we will not get too involved in the affairs of other people's own families." Wu Chen said with a sneer.
In the past two years, the mercenary army has invested a lot in Angola, and a batch of tens of millions of dollars of grain transported from Ukolan, the Angolan government still owes it, and it is estimated that it will have to exchange resources in the future, and the people near the oil area have received a large amount of food, household appliances, etc., and have also received free treatment from the medical team, which is all money!
After receiving Wu Chen's order, a Wasp-class amphibious assault ship and a Ticonderoga-class missile cruiser, the Quest Krivac-class missile frigate, and the Alrosa diesel-electric submarine formed a fleet to circumnavigate the Strait of Gibraltar and rushed to the Luanda military port.
The soldiers and equipment of an infantry battalion of the Second Brigade Combat Team were sent to Angola by the Il-76 strategic transport plane, and Wu Chen made his attitude clear: If the Angolan government dares to tear up the contract, then he will solve the problem by force.
The arrival of 20 strategic bombers became the last straw that broke the camel's back, and the Angolan government had to ask for help from the governments behind the oil conglomerates.
Australia, Argentina, France, and India have successively pointed out to the US Government that the Golden Triangle International Security Company has wantonly plundered Angola's oil resources by abnormal means, and that this kind of behavior is very unfair to the oil enterprises of various countries, and they hope that the US Government will take measures to stop such mistakes from continuing.
"What you Exxon should do is to unite with the Golden Triangle International Security Company to squeeze oil companies from other countries out of Angola, instead of fighting in the nest. It's also an American company, and Congress can't take too much sides, and as you know, Golden Triangle International Security is not an ordinary mercenary organization, but is currently a partner of the Department of Defense. A senior congressman with a high authority said to Exxon's representatives.
The attitude of the US government is very clear: since the contract has been signed, it must abide by the spirit of the contract, and the Atlantis Mineral Resources Company is entrusted by the Golden Triangle International Security Company to extract oil in Angola, and the US government must protect the interests of its own national enterprises from being damaged.
