Chapter 1164: A Windfall in South America XV
The historical trajectory of this time and space, because of Wu Chen's secret disturbances, there are still some subtle changes, he detonated the contradictions of several countries in advance, and made the intrigue superficial and substantial, just like the discord between the United States and European countries, the discord between Western European countries and Britain, the discord between Arab countries and Israel, and the tension between the United States and Japan.
What is even more special is that the United States has not had a smooth time since NATO's bombing of SAARC, and its status as a superpower has been shaky, for example, in SAARC, it suffered heavy losses and was attacked by terrorists, the war in Afghanistan has fallen into a quagmire, and NATO is in danger of disintegration.
In the face of such a strange situation, many countries feel that the clouds and mountains are covered in fog and do not know how to deal with it, so the governments of various countries rack their brains to find their own position from the situation, in any case, improving the combat effectiveness of the army is a necessary step.
"His Excellency the President is worried that the calm in South America will be broken, because of the mineral resources, involved in the collision of various forces, so to strengthen the armament and modernization process of the army, in fact, the worst is prepared." Wu Chen was not too surprised by this answer.
"The biggest purpose of the war is interests, the amount of mineral resources, and the key to determining the outcome of the war, once those big forces start a war, Brazil and South American countries will not be spared at all, not to hide Mr. Wu Chen, we have decided to establish a community of South American countries to deal with this potential threat." Mr. President said.
"The South American continent is fundamental to our existence, and for the safety of our homeland and our people, although governments do not want to be involved in war, they must take some precautions. Sometimes if you don't mess with others, others will take the initiative to invade you, and the rules of the game in this world are whoever has a hard fist, whoever says it. ”
"The most recent example, Afghanistan, is the attack on the United States by a terrorist group, the Taliban government that holds power was destroyed, a war has been fought for more than a year, resulting in the deaths of more than 200,000 civilians, and what the US government has done, which country can restrain it?" said the Minister of Defense.
"You're right, it's an iron law that a weak country has no diplomacy, and there are countless cases in history. South American countries are also a force that should not be underestimated if they are twisted into a rope, and Brazil, as the largest and strongest country in South America, should indeed plan for the future in advance, which is also the responsibility of regional powers. ”
"Language pales in the face of hegemony, and it is not a good thing to show your muscles at this time, and the second Falklands War launched by Argentina is an opportunity. I agree to accept this military order, the Golden Triangle Federation and Brazil have close cooperation, and this mercenary army will do its best to make up for you. Wu Chen said.
No wonder this South American countries are purchasing weapons and equipment from mercenaries under the pretext of the Second Falklands War, which turned out to be instigated by Brazil behind the scenes, but Wu Chen appreciates this kind of strategic vision of taking precautions, and he doesn't panic when he has surplus food!
The reason why the world has become what it is today is because he is setting up a situation behind his back, because no one in this space knows the direction of history better than him.
Occupying Ukraine's Sestopol naval base, blocking the key points of Russia's westward advance, forcing the other side to be unable to threaten the security of the Mediterranean region, and greatly compressing the strategic space, this is the first step, with the aim of forcing the Russian government to sort out the resources of the CIS countries and become the world's first new power.
With the help of the desire of Western European countries to establish an independent European defense system, the relationship between NATO countries has been divided, and various misunderstandings and contradictions have been constantly created, so that Western European countries have formed a group, and their cooperation with Britain and the United States has become weaker and weaker, forming a second new force in the world.
By waging war against the aggressive Israel, weakening the other side's military strength, cutting off the dependence of the United States on the Middle East, relieving the Arab countries of their worries, and sorting out the accumulated contradictions between them, the Arabian Peninsula can unite and form the third new power in the world.
The Golden Triangle Federal International Cooperation Organization is an international cooperation organization led by mercenaries and united by many countries around the world, including the vast majority of African countries, which is the fourth new power in the world.
The current situation of the United States, a superpower, is very embarrassing, NATO is facing the threat of dissolution because of the hegemony of the United States and the countries of Western Europe, Japan is at odds with the United States, South Korea is being suppressed by the North Korea, and only Britain is an ally, and the rest are all unreliable.
Although Canada and Australia have participated in US military operations many times, they are not military allies, and they will watch from the sidelines when they see that the situation is not good.
"Oh my God, Brazil is now the most powerful and richest country in South America, and the environment in South America is very stable, except for internal competition, there is no threat of foreign war, why do you have to purchase so many weapons and equipment?" Adriana asked, confused.
Seeing the Brazilian government's arms purchase order, Adriana was almost stunned, there are billions of dollars of large equipment at every turn, all adding up to tens of billions of dollars, what does the government want to do?
Brazil has made a bloody investment this time, and the Navy has purchased two 45,000-ton sperm whale-class amphibious assault ships that can provide vertical take-off and landing decks for a purchase price of $6 billion.
Six 9,000-ton Trident-class guided missile destroyers with active phased array radars at a cost of $15 billion, and three Tigerfish-class attack nuclear submarines with vertical launch systems at a cost of $6 billion.
As for the army, it is mainly used by the Airborne Forces and the Rapid Reaction Force, with 96 Immortal-1 helicopter gunships costing $4.8 billion, 100 mercenary version Chinook transport helicopters at a cost of $5 billion, and 20 mercenary version C-17 strategic and tactical transport planes at a cost of $7 billion.
The Air Force purchased 48 second-hand F-16 Fighting Falcon fighters at a cost of $2.8 billion, two anti-aircraft missile brigades of Hunting Bow-2 anti-aircraft missile equipment at a cost of $12 billion, and three long-range early warning radars at a cost of $3 billion.
"You just look at things from the perspective of the people, make your country rich and strong, first become a regional power, then participate in international affairs and become a major power, and then step into the ranks of superpowers, which is what every government dreams of."
"It's true that South America is calm at the moment, but who knows when the world will change? The strategy of South America is reflected in the mineral resources, and then there is the low force value of each country, whether it is Brazil or Argentina, there is no ability to resist a strong enemy, it is easy to become the target of plunder, and the husband is not guilty. Wu Chen smiled and said.
