Chapter 1246 Wild Wolf Mercenary Group
It wasn't until the ferry stopped at a simple pier and a group of soldiers in camouflage uniforms came out that Banjo finally understood that this was not a resort, but a military camp.
Under the leadership of the soldiers, Banjo walked into the low and sturdy barracks deep in the woods. Banjo became more determined in his idea. However, Liang Yong did not explain to him. Instead, he had people arrange for him to stay in a room while he took the Jin Qiaoqiao and others went to the female guest area with no intention of discussing business matters.
It wasn't until the next morning that a sharp-eyed white officer came back with a group of fierce-looking soldiers. After Liang Yong and the officer went into the conference room and muttered for a while, someone came over to invite Banjo to the meeting.
Banjo entered the conference room and found that Liang Yong, Xiao Ling, and Ruan Linghua were all there. The white officer was sitting next to Liang Yong, acting like a master. Banjo had an indifferent look on his face, and no emotional changes could be seen on his face.
Liang Yong waved to Banzhuo and said: "Banzhuo, sit here with me. This is Colonel Feishenko. He is the supreme commander of this base." He turned around and introduced Feishenko: "Banjo Kanu, distinguished King of Samya,"
"Hello," Banjo greeted Fischenko politely, opening his arms for the hug of an African brother. He knew some English and could speak simple communication himself, while Liang needed to translate for more complex ones.
"Hello," Feishenko sternly stretched out his left hand to shake Banjo's hand. He didn't reply very enthusiastically, but his whole body was filled with a murderous aura.
After everyone sat down, Liang Yong began to introduce in detail. After listening to Liang Yong's introduction, Banjo realized that Liang Yong was hiring a mercenary group for himself. In front of him, Feishenko was the leader of the most famous Wild Wolf mercenary group in South Asia. His subordinates There are 2,000 mercenary troops with rich actual combat experience. They have been fighting all over the world all year round and have never had a record of failure. Having this unit join Samya to fight will have a key impact on the war situation in Samya. Restoration will not be a problem.
However, the commission for hiring this army is not low. The daily commission for ordinary soldiers is 500 million gold. For officers, it is doubled or several times. The purchase and loss of weapons and equipment is also included. A 2,000-man army consumes a minimum of 50 million gold per month. , it is definitely a money-burning deal, and there is no way Samya can pay for it with his financial resources.
After hearing this, Banjo looked sad and said pitifully: "Dear Grand Master, Samya really needs this powerful allied force, but where can we come up with such a large sum of money to pay for it? It is difficult for us to come up with 1 million. "
Liang Yong signaled him to calm down and said calmly: "I have already considered this. I know that Samya cannot afford huge military expenditures. I have discussed it repeatedly with Colonel Feishenko before, and he decided to only charge one-tenth for the time being. military expenditure, you can pay the remaining military expenditure in batches,"
"But we can't afford 5 million," Banjo said, still embarrassed.
"Don't worry about this. The money I have raised for you is all donated free of charge by conscientious businessmen in China. We in China have always valued our friendship with our African brothers. If your place is peaceful and stable, businessmen can do business with each other and promote Trade is booming," Liang Yong explained.
"Ah, this is great. Thank you to the Chinese brothers. I guarantee that after Samya returns to the country, it will definitely open its doors to welcome them to invest and do business." Banjo was overjoyed when he heard this. He grabbed Liang Yong's hand and shook it violently with excitement.
"There are conditions for your installment payment. You must first listen to my conditions before deciding. Our mercenary group has always planned to establish a base in Africa. However, the land provided by those countries in the past was not very satisfactory. Mr. Liang asked this time I strongly recommended Samya, saying that it has abundant products and convenient water and transportation, which made us think it would be okay to build a base there. That’s why we gave you such favorable conditions. We will advance military expenses to fight for you. All we need is the Samya government. We have set aside a piece of land as a base, and we can use that land freely. You cannot interfere. Of course, the sovereignty is still yours. We sign a lease contract every 50 years and we will pay you high rents," Feishenko said coldly. The voice came, still without any emotion. It was hard and hard, not like a negotiation, but like an order.
Banjo is knowledgeable and knows what it means to rent a military base. All powerful countries in the world have built a large number of military bases overseas to control surrounding areas. Although this is a bit humiliating and humiliating, for weak countries, But it is a good way to protect yourself. If a military base is built in the country, it can collect a lot of rent every year. The garrison here can also increase consumption and jobs, and it can also help drive local economic development.
But Banjo also understands a truth. It is easier to invite the gods than to send them away. There are many benefits to allowing the wild wolf mercenaries to settle in now, but if there is a conflict in the future, it will not be so easy to send them away. Don't let the wolf come in through the front door and let the tiger in through the back door. , lowered his head and thought for a while and then asked: "I didn't know you needed to rent that land,"
Fischenko waved a soldier in and put a marching map on the table, which was exactly a map of Samya. Fischenko pointed to a bay and said: "I want Samya Bay and the surrounding 30 kilometers, every year I will give you a rent of one million, and the rent will increase by 10% after five years. We will be responsible for all investments including infrastructure, and we will also compensate those named Bai whose land was expropriated,"
When Banjo saw that place, his heart dropped halfway. Sam Bay is not a good place. To the south of the Holy Mountain, it is a vast land with sparse people and dense swamps. Further south is the Gobi Desert and the Great Desert. Sam Bay has always been the place. Asia's wild land, only nomadic tribes visit there for two months every autumn.
Fischenko's choice of that place as a military base had almost no impact on the principality of Samya. Instead, it added a free gatekeeper in the south. Samya is close to the sea. In addition to the limited land area, the other three sides are Desert, and these inhabitable lands are bounded by sacred mountains. The north is rich and developed, occupying 90% of the land area; the south is wild and backward, with harsh natural conditions, and has always been ignored.
Although he was secretly happy, Banjo still pretended to ponder, thinking for a while before saying vaguely: "I think this proposal is feasible, but the final decision is still up to me to go back and discuss with everyone to determine whether the general can send troops to follow me back to Sam. Asia,"
After listening to Liang Yong's translation, Feishenko's face darkened and he was obviously unhappy. He slapped the table and said, "I don't like your attitude of procrastination and shirk. If it doesn't work, I will throw it away. If it weren't for Mr. Liang's sake, How can I have such favorable conditions for you?"
