Chapter 469: Cheese Moved

The third more

Prime Minister Jacques Chirac thought that by tying up Vietnam, he would be able to expand the arms market in Southeast Asia, how could a small Vietnam satisfy France's huge share of arms sales, and that the strategic vision of the Gallic chicken was no worse than that of the United States, and he realized that the complicated South China Sea issue was a huge market for ship sales, and the disputes surrounding this resource-rich sea area had not been resolved for decades.

In this case, France first took care of Vietnam, the former colony, and then slowly expanded its sales channels to the Philippines, Indonesia, Brunei and Malaysia, and as long as there was a dispute, Chirac did not have to worry about sales at all.

That said, Chirac is not limited to the Asia-Pacific region, but also intensifies French infiltration into Libya in an effort to gain more oil rights in the Libyan civil war. At present, the Western powers still maintain a certain "gentlemanly" demeanor, that is, the Libyan National Oil Company, which has lost actual control, continues to operate the Libyan oil fields in the name of joint ventures, but the actual controlling party has been replaced by the spokesperson of the interests of Western countries, in other words, Libya has become a wild horse that has escaped from the leash, allowing Western countries to control, split, and eventually become a place of war.

The Soviet Union's Russian Oil Trading and Exploitation Company was one of the largest mining companies in the Siirt Basin in northern Libya, and the most incredible scene of this Libyan civil war was that even as other cities and regions were fighting, the oil-rich cities remained calm, and even the opposition united to defend the city against a counter-offensive by government forces. Of course, under the joint sanctions of the air power of Western countries, even the heavily armed Libyan government army could not afford to make much waves, and the hordes of T72 and T55 tanks were often directly wiped out by Western fighters who controlled air supremacy before they entered the city.

Agents backed by Western forces will always be much more powerful than other armed forces with half-way backgrounds, and they only need to make a deal with the forces behind them in exchange for oil extraction to obtain a large amount of military aid from Western countries.

Italy's Eni, Britain's BP, France's Total, Spain's Repsol, and Austria's OMV are all carefully guarding the acres and thirds of the land reserved for themselves by armed proxies, and only the United States will take simple and crude methods, such as the plundering of other oil fields by the opposition backed by big-name oil companies like ConocoPhillips.

The vast majority of cities have kept oil production at very low levels, because the prospect of war has prevented large-scale oil extraction. However, the Russian oil trading and exploitation company is working at full power for oil extraction, of course, this depends on the strong military power of the Soviet Union, in other cities, the oil fields are at most guarded by opposition soldiers armed with Kalashnikov or RPG rocket launchers, but the Soviet oil fields are directly equipped with Shikle River self-propelled guns and SAM anti-aircraft missiles, and even BMP infantry fighting vehicles and T72 tanks to protect the oil refinery.

Russia's actions almost made France's Total company almost scold, who have you ever seen in oil extraction and defense work like an army? It's not oil extraction, it's simply a war. Could it be that the oil exploitation of the oil trading and exploitation company is part-time, and the war is the main business?

Representatives of Russian companies active in Libya said that in view of the complex situation in Libya, Russia's oil extraction is only in the form of self-protection, and is not really about starting a war. As for the Shikle River and Sam anti-aircraft missiles, the spokesman said that this is the daily life of a fighting nation, and you can do it if you are not used to it.

The Red Crescent Brigades and the Libyan United Revolutionary Front were the two trump cards of the Soviet Union, but President Jacques Chirac had the idea of the Russian oil fields, noting that the U.S.-backed February Martyrs Brigade was actively expanding its business for ConocoPhillips, and then exchanging the funds from oil exploration for U.S. weapons and supplies.

French President Jacques Chirac came to Mario premeditated, he was worried that his country would not be able to digest the oil fields snatched from the mouth of the Soviet Union, so he hoped to act with the United States and jointly bear the risk of retaliation from the Soviet Union that he might face next.

Chirac thought that France would pay for it, and the United States would pay for it, and then use the local American-controlled February Martyrs Brigade to broaden his financial route. Chirac's wishful thinking has worked well, and Mario has been very interested, at least so far, in his proposals.

Mario proposed his plan to Chirac, "Anyway, as an agent of the United States, the February Martyrs Brigade will launch an attack on the three oil fields of Butifler Pool, two of which are controlled by the Red Crescent Brigade, as far as I know, and if they are snatched, it will be equivalent to scrapping a large chunk of Soviet oil revenue in Libya." ”

Because the Red Crescent Brigade paid a terrible price in attacking the Butifolo Pool oil field last week, it can be said that it almost recaptured the Butifolo Pool oil field from government forces, one of the largest oil fields in southeastern Libya, close to the Hussein oil field under the de facto control of ConocoPhillips of the United States.

France, thinking of reaping the benefits of the fisherman, saw an opportunity to allow the United States to launch an attack to seize the oil fields at Butifler Pool, taking advantage of the fact that the Soviet Union had not yet gained a foothold.

"After the fact, France and the United States can split the oil in half, and we hope that the French company can also get involved in one of the oil producing wells, which can be regarded as a reward for this Franco-American cooperation."

"Of course there is no problem, President Chirac." Apparently Mario realizes that this is a great opportunity for the United States to control the oil fields in the northeast of Libya, and that the Hussein and Gaby fields have already fallen into the hands of the actual agents of the United States, and the next step is to annex the Butifolo pool to the south, and then the United States will control all the oil production in the northeast. And when the war is over, the United States will be the biggest beneficiary of Libyan oil.

"So it's going to be the way we planned?" President Jacques Chirac asked on the phone, after all, such an act should cover up his tracks and avoid letting the Soviet Union know that France was fanning the flames behind it.

"The February Revolutionary Brigade has just received our weapons assistance, and next month they will attack the Butifler pool, and I think soon we will get this oil field." President Mario said, but in his heart he was thinking about how to pull the grass on the wall of France into the water together.

"Okay, then I'll wait for good news." President Chirac replied. (To be continued.) )
