Chapter 1349: America's Friends Must Be Satisfied
Du Fei asked what was going on.
Jiao Zhi Bu Shi slapped his thigh helplessly: "Oh~ Don't mention it..."
There were more than just them playing 'karate' on the battlefield in South Vietnam. Everyone was playing before, and they didn't think it was a big deal.
Unknowingly, the hole was getting bigger and bigger, but everyone was still enjoying it.
The feeling of easily making huge profits was intoxicating.
However, as Nico was eager to end the war for his own historical status and kept moving forward, these people finally felt a sense of urgency.
Bu Shi had previously obtained 60 gunships from Du Fei, and he filled them in with dog meat under the guise of sheep, and finally smoothed out the account.
The next step was to make these planes disappear 'reasonably and legally' on the 'fierce' battlefield.
But the matter was not over. Jiao Zhi Bu Shi landed, but there were still many people who were eager to fill the hole but suffered from having nothing on hand.
Although some of these people are not from the same faction as the Bushi family, the big families in America are all intertwined. You are his second brother-in-law, she is your third aunt, and even if there is no such relationship, you can find that he is the third uncle of your niece's eldest aunt's brother-in-law.
With this relationship, plus some exchange of interests, many things can't be shirked.
What's more, Jiaozhi Bushi didn't want to shirk it, there are benefits here.
Du Fei understood that this is to continue to supply materials from him and use the price difference between the two sides to fill the hole.
And from what Jiaozhi Bushi said, Nico is getting more and more impatient. In order to realize his ambition of governing in the second term, he began to show more and more tough attitudes.
If the holes on the battlefield in South Vietnam cannot be filled as soon as possible, once the war is over, any situation may be dragged out as a scapegoat.
At this time, Du Fei's heart suddenly moved.
Originally, he had always been a little confused. In the world before he crossed over, Nico was doing well, why was he impeached, and now he suddenly realized it.
Although his strong push to end the war catered to the current public opinion and public sentiment, it affected too many people.
It should be said that he was already quite strong to be able to hold on until now. If it were someone else, he would have been finished long ago.
"How is it? Du, are you having any difficulties?" Jiao Zhibushi saw that Du Fei was a little absent-minded and raised his voice slightly.
Du Fei came back to his senses and said, "No problem, Jiao Zhi, based on our relationship, even if we have to dig out our reserve materials, I will help you!"
Jiao Zhibushi felt relieved.
Du Fei was his last hope, and he had thought of all other ways he could think of.
But because of the spillover of industries in their country, their productivity is no longer as strong as it was 20 years ago. In addition, they feel pressure, and everyone is scrambling for production capacity to plug their own holes.
As for the little thing about Siam, if it weren't for someone in the Pentagon worrying about it, he wouldn't even bother to ask more.
Moreover, with their intelligence capabilities, they had already found out the situation clearly. It was Pumibang who provoked Du Fei first, and used a group of pirates to force Du Fei into the game.
Who knew that Du Fei did not follow the routine and directly overturned the table.
After more than two hours of conversation, Jiao Zhibushi had dinner together before leaving.
When he left, Du Fei smiled and thought about how much money he could make from this cooperation.
Although it was to help, Du Fei would not do anything without benefits.
Last time, he helped Jiao Zhibushi get 60 gunships, each costing 8 million US dollars, nearly 500 million US dollars, and the net profit was about 300 million US dollars after deducting the cost.
This time, according to the variety and quantity roughly mentioned by Jiao Zhibushi, although they were all ordinary military supplies, the prices were not cheap.
Du Fei calculated that the transaction amount this time was more than 700 million US dollars, and the net profit had to be at least 400 million US dollars.
As for Jiao Zhibushi, with the 700 million US dollars of supplies, with their financial level and shamelessness, they should be able to fill a hole of about 300 to 400 million US dollars.
The difference in price has long been divided up by their various forces and factions.
Thinking of this, Du Fei couldn't help but sigh, these capitalists are still making money~
He only earned one-tenth of the real goods, and they took 80% of the profits by transferring them from one hand to the other.
But it should be said that Du Fei likes this kind of America very much.
"Look how happy you are, are you so happy that the foreign devil is coming?" Zhu Li was waiting in the room, and she couldn't help but curl her lips when she saw Du Fei's look.
Du Fei patted her butt: "What are you talking about! Last time you came to give 500 million, this time at least 700 million, Jiao Zhi is my brother, beloved relative!"
Zhu Li was surprised. She didn't know how Du Fei and the others talked before, and thought Jiao Zhi Bu Shi came here just for Siam.
He hurriedly asked, "What's going on? How come it's $700 million?"
When Du Fei explained the whole story, Zhu Li couldn't help but sigh in amazement: "No, they really dare to do this? Aren't they afraid of being found out?"
Du Fei said, "Find out? Who will? I dare say that if anyone dares to find out, his body will appear in the sewer the next day. This behavior is definitely like throwing a bomb in the toilet, causing public outrage."
Zhu Li is not a naive person. She understood it immediately and nodded slowly, but she still didn't understand: "Are they really so rotten?"
Du Fei said, "You can't say it's rotten. This is how they operate. The whole of America belongs to the capitalists. Those capitalists just take away the resources that originally belonged to them in this way."
Julie said: "That's what makes it even scarier."
Du Fei said indifferently: "America has her own national conditions here, so there is no need for us to worry about it. I just told Zheng Zhi that if there is such an order, there is no need to discuss it with me, just accept it all, as long as they add money , we must satisfy our friends in America.”
Zhu Li rolled her eyes and said, "Damn it, I'm obsessed with money." Zhuan smiled again, walked up to Du Fei and gave him a shoulder hug: "Hey, how much money can we get?"
Du Fei curled his lips and said, "They said I was obsessed with money."
…
The next day, Jie Bushi left by plane early in the morning.
Du Fei went to the airport to say goodbye in person, but unexpectedly, as soon as he left, Du Fei was preparing to return to the city when he suddenly received news that Mahathir was here.
Du Fei was slightly surprised, but he didn't expect this 'old friend' to come.
But when I thought about it, it wasn't surprising. There was no way that Ma Lai didn't react at all when there was such a big movement at the door of his house.
In Malay, Mahathir is undoubtedly the person who has the most dealings with Kuching. He has rich experience, is familiar with people, and has cooperation in fruit. It is easier to talk when we meet.
Du Fei simply didn't leave and waited for a while at the airport.
Not long after, I saw Mahathir dressed in white in the airport lounge.
Mahathir also saw Du Fei and quickened his pace from a distance. He was a few meters away from Du Fei. He began to bow and stretched out his hand: "Mr. Du, it is a great honor for you to come in person."
Du Fei smiled and did not explain that he was not here to pick him up. He smiled and shook hands: "We are old friends, there is no need to be so polite."
In fact, Mahathir knew very well that his weight was not enough for Du Fei to come to the airport to greet him, but he should not be too thin-skinned when it was time to put gold on his face.
No matter what Du Fei is here for, Mahathir preconceptionally believes that he is here to pick him up, and he can increase his worth by talking about it back.
And Mahathir is also sure that Du Fei will not refute his face.
Because the last contact was about the fruit alliance, Mahathir, as the representative of Malay, was very active. Du Fei reciprocated and would not make him look bad.
Moreover, both parties have common interests, and Du Fei promised to support his development in the real world.
In this case, you can imagine where Mahathir's butt sits.
After a while of greetings, the two got in the car and returned to the city.
It happened to be almost noon, and Du Fei entertained her as a landlord, and the two had a pleasant conversation at the dinner table.
Mahathir explained the purpose of his visit.
Du Fei took a bite of the grouper that was just served, cooked using the method of making Yellow River carp, and said with a smile: "Don't you think Malaysia has no ideas this time?"
Mahathir was stunned and didn't understand what Du Fei meant.
But he reacted very quickly, and he understood immediately and couldn't help but lean forward: "Mr. Du, you mean... Danian Mansion?"
Du Fei said calmly: "I heard that there are many Malays living in the southernmost part of Siam, in Therawa, Petani, and even Songkhla."
Mahathir's heartbeat quickened. He thought it was only Tanian Mansion, but he didn't expect Du Fei's heart to be bigger.
What excites him even more is that if this thing comes true, as he plays a key role in it, his reputation in Malay will be greatly enhanced.
Not only will it be written into the history books, but it will also become his biggest asset for future career advancement.
As far as Du Fei is concerned, although he promised to Jie Zhi Bu Shi that he would not covet an inch of Siam's territory, he did not say that he would not encourage others to do so.
Originally, Mahathir came this time to inquire about Du Fei's attitude and what the sudden maritime conflict with Siam was about; and secondly to see if the dispute could be settled, at least not at their doorstep.
However, after Du Fei threw out three houses, Mahathir immediately changed his position.
It's not that Mahathir is so unprincipled, but that he sees it more clearly and has no room for rejection.
Three days ago, Du Fei had already shown his determination with Siam's six ships, and now he has thrown out the three southernmost provinces of Siam. Can Mahathir refuse?
At this time, it is time to take sides, either support or oppose, but there is no option to sit on the fence, at least Mahathir is not qualified to sit on the fence.
Du Fei became more confident after meeting with Jie Bushi.
It was already certain that America had no time to care about these trivial matters in Nanyang, which was why Du Fei patted his chest and agreed to help even if he used reserve supplies.
Only with this deal can America become more tolerant of his subsequent behavior.
Du Fei put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth with a napkin, and said with a smile: "Mahathir, don't worry, your actions will not pose any risks. At most tomorrow night, Li Yuanchao in Shanbei will dispatch 30,000 troops to threaten Siam. northwest of Luo."
Mahathir was shocked.
Du Fei continued: "In northern Siam, the guerrillas of the Progressive Party have also gathered five thousand people. I have provided them with sufficient weapons and ammunition through Shanbei." At this point, he paused: "In addition, I I also received America’s understanding.”
Mahathir finally ignored his reserve and suddenly changed his face.
He knew that Du Fei had no need to lie to him.
In Nanyang, America's attitude can often determine many things.
Du Fei said: "Next, my fleet will continue to patrol the Gulf of Siam. If you are added to it, it will be besieged on all sides... Do you think Siam has a chance of winning?"
Mahathir couldn't help but swallow.
It's just like what Du Fei said, coupled with the chaotic factional strife within Siam, I really can't think of any chance of a comeback.
At the same time, Mahathir also became more aware of the huge resources and energy Du Fei had at his disposal.
It is said that Siam's strength is one of the best in Southeast Asia, but Du Fei suddenly found himself surrounded on all sides.
…
On the other side, in Bangkok city.
The head of the military government, Thanong Jiangjun, looked ugly. The failure of the navy was not the army's business.
But those newspapers deliberately lumped them together and directly said that the military government was incompetent. It took away a large amount of military expenditures every year, but its military was lax and its equipment was backward.
Now all these shit basins are placed on the head of the military government. As the leader, one can imagine how he feels.
If this is just the solution, I will feel suffocated at most. The problem now is that not only the sea in the south is not calm, but the Progressive Party guerrillas in the north are also restless.
Just three days ago, after the defeat in the naval battle, in less than three hours, news came that the guerrillas suddenly came out and captured a county town.
This time the Progressive Party's guerrillas were obviously different from before. Not only were they well-equipped, but they also had plenty of bullets.
In the past, due to the blockade, each guerrilla fighter only had seven or eight rounds of ammunition, hiding in the mountains and old forests, and did not dare to shoot easily.
This time the style has completely changed. When attacking the county town and encountering the local Zhengfu army, they actually took out mortars!
You don't need to think about it to know that this must be foreign aid.
As for who the foreign aid is, it is obvious. The north has never had deep ties with the Progressive Party, but this does not prevent Danbei from the west from secretly supporting it.
Giving some guns and bullets is not a big deal for Li Yuanchao.
This makes Thanong lose face even more.
If it is said that the navy cannot be defeated at sea, what should we say this time on land?
At the same time, in the palace, Pumi Beng was careless.
Although three days ago, he had just learned that the navy had lost five of its six ships and one was captured, which shocked him.
But after calming down, Pumi Beng thought carefully and felt that this might not be a bad thing.
As long as it can undermine the prestige of the military, it will be beneficial to his subsequent plans.
From this perspective, the effect of attracting Du Fei into the game is quite good.
"Your Majesty, the news just now is that the northern guerrillas have left Chiang Mai and appeared in Phrao..." A tall intelligence officer reported to him.
Pumi Beng was wearing white uniform, pushed up his glasses slightly, and said calmly: "Let the other farmers handle these matters." Then he asked: "Is there any feedback from the Yingguo side?"
Pumi Beng tried to use external forces to unite the domestic bourgeoisie and suppress the military forces.
Secretly colluding with the Yingguo people, hoping to gain Western support to establish a constitutional monarchy after the collapse of the military government.
Originally, America was more suitable for this role, but unfortunately she wasn't interested in him, so she settled for the next best thing and approached Ying Guo.
He himself can use this opportunity to further strengthen the king's power. This is his purpose.
Pumi Beng asked again: "What's the reaction from Kuching?"
The intelligence officer said: "Your Majesty, America's orthodontic cloth secretly arrived in Kuching yesterday, had a secret conversation with Du Fei, and left this morning. The specific content is unknown..."
Pumi Beng frowned, he had always been very afraid of Kuching's relationship with America.
It stands to reason that with Du Fei's background, he should naturally be in the hostile camp with America. However, Du Fei can urinate into the same pot as Jian Bu Shi.
Pumi jumped: "What does the Intelligence Analysis Division say?"
Intelligence analysis revealed that it was a think tank established by Pumi Beng a few years ago, and specially invited many experts in intelligence analysis and international relations to provide his personal services.
The intelligence officer took out a document: "Your Majesty, this is the report."
Pumi Beng frowned and said, "Let's talk about the key points."
The intelligence officer bowed slightly, took back the document, and continued: "According to the existing intelligence analysis, Kuching has a high probability of gaining America's understanding through the exchange of interests, which is very detrimental to us. We should appropriately ease the relationship with Kuching. The relationship between Jin and Jin is to avoid further rigidity in the situation..."
King Pumi Beng sat on a high-backed chair, lowered his head slightly in thought, but slowly shook his head: "No, we need to win Yingguo's support now. The people behind Kuching have a bad relationship with Yingguo. Last time Yingguo people The fleet was destroyed by them. Instead of trying to please both sides, it is better to focus on one side. Although Huaguo is powerful, it is not a threat to me. Don’t forget that they are not bordering us. "
The intelligence officer remained silent. He only stated the contents of the analysis report and was not responsible for arguing with the king.
Pumi Beng was still thinking about himself: "The only thing we need to worry about is Li Yuanchao from Shanbei. The existence of this person is very difficult, but the human heart is the most unpredictable. Although Li Yuanchao was born in Huaguo, now... he has his own interests and supports progress. Party guerrillas are already his limit. He will never take the risk of antagonizing us and getting into a two-front war just to cooperate with Du Fei..."
Pumi Beng vowed to express his judgment, but he failed to calculate Du Fei's weight in Li Yuanchao's heart.
Moreover, as a king, it is difficult for him to understand the beliefs and persistence of Li Yuan Chao's generation.
Maybe in ten or twenty years, Li Yuanchao will change and become a different kind of person, thinking about problems as he expected.
But now, the leader is still there, the spirit is still there, and with the infinite buff halo, Li Yuanchao is still the original Li Yuanchao, and he still respects the faith he has believed in since he was a child.
What's more, Du Fei didn't ask Li Yuanchao to take action. It was just a demonstration of pressure, and there was no need to start a real fight.
In addition, Pumi Beng takes it for granted that there is no territorial border.
He didn't know that in reality, there was already a corridor that was not on the map, more than 100 kilometers long and more than 10 kilometers wide, from Yunnan Province to theirs.
Just when Pumi was talking in the palace in Bangkok, thinking that everything was under control.
In the north, the Progressive Party guerrillas were already making great strides.
