Chapter 781 Private military contractor vs. the worlds third-ranked mercenary group
Taylor agreed to come over and take over to help. Although it would take three days to arrive, the construction site has not yet started and the construction team is still preparing to enter the site.
It's totally in time.
Long Zhan took the earliest flight that day and flew directly to Salt Lake City International Airport.
Johnny, who set off from the company here, came over early and waited at the airport exit. As soon as Long Zhan left the airport, he was picked up in the car and went straight to the headquarters of Titan Company.
Time is urgent, so hurry up.
When Long Zhan returned to the company, he didn't even bother to take a breath and immediately called Tucker to the office for communication.
Even though it was already past 10 o'clock in the evening, Jinguogan's Defense Minister and his party had already left long ago, and were personally arranged by Tucker to check in and rest at a star-rated hotel in the city.
In the 10 or so hours since Long Zhan returned, Tucker has already completed preliminary contacts with them.
What Long Zhan wants to know now is how far the two parties have reached the point of discussion, what their specific needs are, and why they approached Titan Company to discuss cooperation.
These three questions are the core key, and the more detailed you must know, the better.
Tucker has always regarded Long Zhan as his backbone. Now that Long Zhan is back, he can finally breathe a sigh of relief and tell everything he knows in detail.
The current negotiations between Jinguogan and Jusen Company are still at the most preliminary stage of dialogue and understanding.
We have not yet talked about the specific number of people needed, what kind of project services are needed, contracting prices, etc., etc.
But what is the demand for dried golden fruits?
Why don't so many big companies look for it, but they look for a small local company like Jushen Company?
We have a preliminary understanding of these two issues.
According to Tucker's retelling of Xiang Longzhan, the likely reason is that a civil war has broken out in Jinguogan. The rebels have received support from external forces. The attack momentum is very fierce, and the territory of the government forces is gradually shrinking.
The Secretary of Defense came to the United States specifically for this trip, mainly to appeal to the United Nations and get the United Nations, an international organization, to intervene to prevent these external national forces from intervening in the Jinguogan civil war.
Secondly, let the United Nations initiate humanitarian procedures to help rescue domestic war refugees, and let the International Red Cross provide medical assistance.
The Minister of Defense has been busy for more than half a month, and he has negotiated all these matters with the United Nations.
However, the United Nations is not an authoritarian organization. As a parliamentary system, every move it takes requires a meeting and a vote.
Regarding whether to help resolve the Jinguogan Civil War, which countries have sent peacekeeping troops in, how to ensure the safety of peacekeepers and Red Cross personnel, etc.
These problems are very complex and each one takes a long time.
The United Nations can afford to wait, but the Jin Guoqian government cannot afford to wait.
The rebels have already occupied several major cities. If this trend continues, if they cannot find ways to contain it in time, they will reach the outskirts of the capital in less than three months. By then it will be too late to say anything.
In order to stabilize the situation as soon as possible, at least until the United Nations formally issues relevant policies to urge external countries to stop intervening in the civil war.
Jin Guogan, the Minister of Defense, thought hard for several days, almost losing too many brain cells and becoming bald. Finally, he came up with an emergency solution.
That is to spend money to find private military contractors, let them help train the army for integrated combat, and serve as military consultants to make plans for the war.
Pmc is subject to the international laws of war and cannot participate in direct combat with any country.
Only the right to counterattack in self-defense!
Once you join the fighting on either side, you will be waiting for the trial of the International Military Tribunal and eventually be sent to prison as a war criminal.
but.
What I’m talking about here is direct combat!
If you are not directly involved in the battle, you will just help train the army, serve as a military consultant, and be responsible for various logistics tasks.
This is entirely within the business scope of PMC.
The reason why Minister of National Defense Jin Guogan thought of cooperating with PMC, which only talks about money but not about national borders, was that he believed that this move would definitely be useful.
The reason why the rebels are so powerful is that the government troops they fight are unable to resist and are retreating.
In addition to the governments of other countries supporting the rebels behind the scenes, they secretly provided them with a variety of high-end weapons, allowing the rebels' equipment to crush the government forces.
The main reason is that there are a large number of mercenaries supporting the rebels.
And these mercenaries are very powerful.
The leader is the Grizzly Bear Mercenary Group, which ranks third in global strength, has no fewer than five retired special forces soldiers, and has the second highest asking price in Europe.
How could the rebels have so much money and hire thousands of mercenaries to help them?
Among them is the second most expensive mercenary group in Europe.
This matter is actually not difficult to understand, and there must be big donors behind it.
With the leadership of a world-class mercenary group and the weapons and equipment secretly supported by certain countries, the rebels instantly became the "African Ace Army".
The military quality of most armies in African countries is generally unsatisfactory.
Dried golden fruits are no exception!
The government troops, who were still equipped with weapons from the Cold War, were commanded by a group of officers who did not understand strategy and tactics at all. When they encountered the rebels, they were beaten and fled.
Especially the mineral-rich Western Front Theater has been beaten to the last line of defense, Acrylic City.
As a country that sells resources to make a living, once Acrylic City is occupied by rebels, the government forces will lose 80% of their fiscal income.
We are already at a disadvantage internally. What will be the consequences if the government runs out of money?
You can figure it out with your toes!
External countries secretly support the rebels, and some major international donors spend huge sums of money to hire mercenaries, the core of which is these minerals.
Tantalum and niobium mineral resources account for 80% of the world's total, and cobalt reserves account for 50% of the world's total, etc.
Let’s not talk about these monopoly mines!
Others such as diamonds, gold, silver, petroleum, various gemstones, and even the most important materials for atomic bombs, uranium and plutonium, also occupy the forefront of the world.
The current Jinguogan government has implemented a policy of nationalizing mineral resources for the best interests.
All mines can only be developed by the state, and external mining companies and surrounding countries can only watch, no matter how jealous they are.
This policy is good for the country, but it is really hateful to some people.
Hence this civil war!
A typical war driven by profit.
The rebels rely entirely on external forces for everything from men to equipment. As long as the rebels can finally seize power, these minerals will be divided up instantly.
If the government troops want not to be defeated by the rebels, using magic to defeat magic is indeed a good way.
Use private military contracting companies to fight mercenary groups. Although the names of the two sides are completely different now, they were the same family for decades.
Who can win this war in the end? No one can give an answer now.
