Chapter 1427 Old Friend
Chapter 1429 Old Friend
Afhan, the most barren place in Central Asia, is a strategic location known as the core of the "Heartland".
It is currently in the hands of Sulian, and a pro-Moscow government has been established with the support of Sulian, but this government is not popular among the people.
Various systems are mechanically copied from the Sulian, but Afhan has its own unique characteristics. The complex sectarian forces are completely incompatible with the Sulian model.
Both the warlords in the north and those in the south near Persia and Pakistan are very dissatisfied with the current Kabu.
If it turns out that India and India contain Pakistan in the south, the two sides will be equivalent to two against two, and the balance of power will generally be maintained.
Now that Indu is like this, Sulian has to shrink, and the only fulcrum for power projection is Afhan.
At this time, Du Fei was thinking about whether he could think of a way to make Sulian thunder in Afhan in advance.
In the world before he traveled, the Afhan War would last two more years.
But the fundamental contradiction has not changed. If a trigger occurs in advance, it may not break out in advance.
At that time, whether it is sending troops directly or spending money to fight a proxy war, the confrontation between America and the Soviet Union cannot be downgraded.
Thinking of this, Du Fei looked down on the map and landed on Bakistan.
He also had an old friend there.
As for Ozhou's request to enter Papua to search for the missing expedition team, Du Fei narrowed his eyes slightly and made quick calculations in his mind. He immediately picked up the phone and dialed Chen Fangshi: "Hey, Lao Chen, come to my place..."
After a while, Chen Fangshi rushed over.
He knew that when Du Fei called him over, it must be about Ozhou's search in Papua.
After arriving, Du Fei didn't waste any time and said immediately: "Old Chen, we will respond to Austria's request through official channels and agree to send people to search. However, out of humanitarian spirit, we will also send a rescue team , formed a joint rescue team with them..."
Having said this, Du Fei paused and said: "Use the name of Nanyang Cooperation Organization to package the entire rescue activity into practical actions."
Chen Fangshi nodded, understanding that Du Fei was muddying the waters first to prevent the Austrian people from coming to the island and taking the opportunity to cause trouble again.
This matter is inherently quite insidious. If Du Fei does not allow it, Aozhou will take the opportunity to make a fuss about their contempt for human life and occupy the moral high ground.
If you agree, it will definitely be easier to ask God than to give him away.
Du Fei, on the other hand, used international cooperation to bring them in. Even if Ozhou wanted to make a fuss, they were not the only rescuers who went up, there were also several fruit families from Nanyang.
Du Fei added: "In addition, our fleet no longer needs to stay in East Java. We can go directly to Papua, establish several strongholds, and plant the flag."
Chen Fangshi responded: "I understand~"
In name, the former Maru Islands and Papua in the east were Indian territories.
But in fact, even in the previous Suharto era, this place was governed by a tyranny and had no direct jurisdiction.
Even saying that Ji is a compliment, often just in name, cannot even collect taxes.
Later, Suharto died, and Subian's reputation was shaky. Later, Subian made a deal with Du Fei and handed over the legitimate name to Du Fei. These peripheral territories were as high as the mountains and as far away as the emperor.
Not to mention Papua, even Sulawesi Island, which is next to Borneo, was semi-independent before.
This time, Du Fei followed the trend and took advantage of Ozhou's move to reach out and directly establish one or two bases in western Papua, projecting actual control over there and encircling the Maru Islands and bringing them under control.
As for the control of Papua, this cannot be decided in a moment. It will be a long-term game.
This situation cannot be said to be beneficial to either party, but it is a relatively good solution that can be thought of at present.
At least Du Fei does not have the strength or method to solve this problem in a short period of time.
…
At the same time, far away in Canberra, in a huge mansion.
A slightly bald white young man knocked on the door of an office.
"Your Excellency the Governor~" The young man entered and bowed.
Inside, a bald old man wearing reading glasses was working at his desk. He seemed not to have heard anything. It was not until several minutes later that he raised his head after finishing the work at hand, closed the pen in his hand, and said calmly: "There is a reply over there. ?”
"Yes, Your Excellency." The young man responded and put a document on the desk.
The governor didn't look at it and asked directly: "What did they say?"
The young man said: "They agreed to our request to go to the island to search..."
The governor raised his eyebrows, as if he didn't expect that the person over there would be so easy to talk to.
The young man continued: "However, they also asked to send people to participate in the search and rescue, and the entire operation was led by the Nanyang Cooperation Organization..."
When the Governor heard this, he sneered: "Nanyang Cooperation Organization~" As a senior official, he understood what Du Fei meant when he heard it, but this was also the result that Ozhou wanted to see.
The Governor said calmly: "Tell America the situation."
"Yes, Your Excellency~"
The young man bowed again and exited the office.
Alone, the Governor reached out and took out the cigar box from the drawer of his desk, and slowly lit one.
Austria is vast and sparsely populated, and there is never a shortage of land. The population is less than 20 million, so they do not have a particularly fanatical pursuit of land.
This time, just as Du Fei guessed, the root of the matter still came from America.
Although Du Fei had the support of Nico and White Palace, there were still people in America who looked down on him, or more precisely, they disliked Hua Guo.
This time, letting Aozhou take action was to curb Du Fei's subsequent expansion in Nanyang.
Du Fei obtained the legitimacy of the original Yinni from Subian, and theoretically had the legal right to inherit the original Yinni territory.
But once Du Fei inherited it, it would be equivalent to controlling nearly half of the territory in Nanyang. In addition, Li Yuanchao was in Shan Guo, Gu Dan was in Siam... and Malay and Lijiapo who participated in the Nanyang Weihe Army, the entire Nanyang almost became Hua Guo's back garden.
This is what some Americans don't want to see.
So they took this opportunity to bring Aozhou in, stabbing him from behind, trying to interrupt Du Fei's process of inheriting the original Yinni territory.
First, we will open a gap in Papua. Then, we only need to encourage the Huang family in Subian and East Java to be independent, and the original ink will be completely scattered.
Let the so-called orthodoxy in Du Fei's hand become a piece of waste paper.
However, these are all America's ideas. As a specific executor, Ozhou has his own ideas.
After all, no one is a brainless tool.
Ozhou has been independent from the British colonial system. Although it is dependent on America, it still has its own interests.
It's just that Ozhou's interests have been ignored all the time.
At first, Ozhou had ambitious hopes to obtain mushroom bombs, but was suppressed by America and Yingguo, missing a good opportunity to become a great power.
This time, it is obvious that they are being used as guns, and they are the kind that will be thrown away after use.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the current trend is that America and Huaguo will stand side by side to fight against the great enemy of Sulian.
In this environment, if something really happens, America will not turn against Huaguo for Ozhou.
If Ozhou really puts all his efforts into it, he would be a fool.
But some things need to be done in a proper manner so that America can find no fault with them.
In this way, both sides sent out search teams, with Ozhou sending more than 200 people and Kuching sending more than 1,000 people, to start looking for the non-existent civilian expedition team in the primeval forest of Papua.
In this process, Du Fei was cautious at first, guarding against Ozhou from doing anything else.
But he soon discovered that the other side seemed to have a "one-day monk ringing the bell" mentality, so he wanted to understand the reason.
The two sides soon reached a tacit understanding, with Ozhou's people going east and Du Fei's people going west, clearly dividing their respective areas of activity in Papua.
In order to avoid unnecessary conflicts, a large buffer zone was separated between the two sides, and there was almost no possibility of accidentally encountering each other.
Instead, when Huang Delu returned, the Huang family and the Kingdom of Nusa Tenga broke out in a very fierce conflict.
Because Du Fei clearly proposed that they should send 5,000 people to Zhenla, which was almost one-third of the Huang family's strength.
Although the Huang family nominally claims to have an army of 100,000, they only have 16,000 to 17,000 people who can really fight a tough battle and have good training and equipment.
If 5,000 are taken out, the rest can only barely protect themselves.
Therefore, the Nusa Tenga Kingdom must be completely eliminated before that.
And according to Du Fei's instructions, the aborigines of the Nusa Tenga Kingdom should be driven to Australia.
As a response to Australia's action this time, once these people enter Australia, they will definitely become troublesome.
As for Australia not accepting them, there is no need to worry. Anyway, there are only a few hundred kilometers of sea. Some ships can always get people over. Australia is vast and sparsely populated and it is impossible to take precautions in all aspects.
Once a certain number of people are gathered and a refugee settlement is formed in the north of Australia, it will be even more difficult to deal with.
…
Kuching, Zhu Li's seaside garden.
Du Fei teaches little Zhengping to swim in the swimming pool with his bare chest.
The little guy has been doing things in a methodical manner since he was a child, and he learns everything quickly.
At this time, someone reported that Chen Fangshi called.
Du Fei freed his hands, handed the child in the swimming ring to Zhu Li, and climbed out of the swimming pool to answer the phone.
"Old Chen, this is Du Fei." Du Fei picked up the phone while wiping his hair.
Chen Fangshi said: "Australia has dispatched the Coast Guard to start expelling ships from Nusa Tenga."
Du Fei smiled. This was expected.
With the power of the Nusa Tenga Kingdom, it was impossible to stop the well-equipped Huang family's direct troops.
In addition, when Huang Delu returned, Du Fei sold him four patrol boats and two torpedo boats.
Although they were not big ships, they were much better than the original ships of the Huang family. With these ships, the war situation was even less suspenseful.
The aborigines of Nusa Tenga were forced to flee to Austria in large numbers.
Du Fei said: "Continue to implement the original plan, apply to the United Fruit in the name of the Nanyang Cooperation Organization, and ask them to pay attention to the humanitarian crisis happening in northern Australia..."
The Nanyang Cooperation Organization was established when the Nanyang Weihe Force was established.
Originally it was just a regional organization, but Du Fei spent a million dollars through some channels and turned it into a regular United Fruit subordinate organization.
Some people thought Du Fei didn't spend the money, but now it comes in handy~
But it's almost done now. These actions can only disgust Austria, but they can't change the overall situation.
If we really want to change the unfavorable situation, we have to solve the problem fundamentally.
...
A few days later, Du Fei arrived in Bagoda by plane.
It was the hottest time in Bagoda, the sun was scorching this ancient land, as if it was sprinkling pieces of flames.
Du Fei walked out of the plane and immediately felt a wave of heat coming towards him.
He walked down the gangway and gave a bear hug to Sadamu who greeted him. Although they hadn't seen each other for a few years, it did not affect the familiarity and enthusiasm of the two at all.
Today's Sadamu is more mature and stable than before, and he has just been promoted to Shangjiang, becoming the second person in the Kingdom of Babylon.
The purpose of inviting Du Fei this time is very simple, that is, hoping to obtain the bombers and gunships in Du Fei's hands, as well as the Fire Fighting No. 2 tank.
Especially the Fire Fighting No. 2, Sadamu had seen it in Syria and Aiji. The tall and sturdy welded turret provided more space, and a high-power air conditioner was installed inside, which could maintain a relatively comfortable temperature in the car even in the hot desert.
If there is any disadvantage, it is due to the slightly weak power of the T-62, but in Sadamu's opinion, this is not a fatal flaw.
The terrain in the Middle East is flat and there is no particularly complex terrain. At present, the power of Fire No. 2 is enough to cope with most situations.
After the hug, Sadamu introduced: "Du, this is my little daughter."
He also came with a cute little girl with thick eyebrows and big eyes, holding a large bouquet of flowers, and said in a baby voice: "Uncle Du, welcome to Babylon~"
Du Fei was slightly surprised that the little girl actually spoke Chinese! Although there was a little accent, it can be seen that she must have practiced for a long time.
"Thank you, little angel~" Du Fei took the flowers with a smile.
After the welcome ceremony, everyone got on Sadamu's car.
"Du, my brother, it's great that you can come this time!" Sadamu did not hide his inner emotions.
His current situation is completely different from that of previous years. He is in high spirits.
Although Poker is still nominally in charge of Babylon, the old and weak Poker is no match for Sadamu at all. It is only a matter of time before the two of them transfer power.
Sadamu's biggest base is the army. In recent years, he has obtained a large amount of petrodollars through cooperation with the American oil consortium.
He is using these dollars to expand the army, update equipment, and win people's hearts.
This time, Du Fei was invited to come here in the hope of obtaining bombers. It would be best if he could imitate Libya and build a factory in Babylon to produce them directly.
Once successful, his reputation will be greatly improved, completely surpassing Poker.
Du Fei is of course happy to hear about this kind of thing.
But he came here this time to meet another important old friend!
