From arms dealer to king of war

Chapter 616 Disaster Comes from Heaven

This guy is probably tired of the warlords of Beida and Tulemese, and he wants to kick them out with a slightly gentler method.

Logically speaking, the price of a barrel is 5 yuan, and with Tobruk's current average daily shipment volume of close to 200,000 barrels, it is almost meaningless to hire P·B with a stable style to enter the field to fight security wars, but it is enough for him to hire Wagner or other large mercenary groups entered the scene and started killing.

This guy's statement that he doesn't want to go to war is probably true. He is planning to establish a law enforcement system that caters to the needs of Europe and the United States, trying to get rid of the image of a military government and give confidence to the civilians under its rule.

The most important thing is that as long as the law enforcement system can work, he can do the same in other places and gradually dilute the influence of warlords.

You warlords are nominally under the command of the National Army, so now that the boss is spending money to build the police force and reduce your pressure on public security, you have no reason to object.

It doesn't matter if you want to fall out, then I will have a legitimate reason to kill you!

This is why he wants to find Qiao Jia, because P·B basically does not cooperate with the warlords. As long as Boss Qiao nods, this law enforcement path is simple.

As long as Beida and Tulemsai can be captured, the core areas of the National Army will be clear.

There is an excellent highway running directly from Benghazi to Egypt, which not only facilitates the transportation of materials sent by Boss Qiao, but also opens the door to border trade between Libya and Egypt...

Haftar's statement that he wants to develop the economy is not just talk. As long as the Northeast is clear, they can use the almost half-empty coastal market to attract foreign investors to place bets.

The geographical location here is excellent, and there are two excellent deep-water ports in Benghazi and Tobruk.

Libya can export not only oil, but also natural gas and ores. As long as Haftar is willing to work hard, it is still possible for Benghazi and Tobruk to prosper again.

Haftar spent the equivalent of US$350 million a year on entrusting P.B. to build a law enforcement system.

In fact, we are still fighting, but the name and uniform have been changed. It is the same concept as Qiao Jia fighting under the DEA brand in the United States.

This is a good thing, but it is a good thing for Libya and Haftar. Boss Qiao does not agree with this.

P·B's current situation is because it has a unique position, because apart from fighting al-Qaeda, Choga has not harmed anyone's interests.

Moreover, seizing the outlet of the oil pipeline is equivalent to seizing the entrance to Libya's cash flow. With the influx of large amounts of materials, there are very few people who really hate P·B.

After all, P·B is an outsider, and according to the contract, Boss Qiao will quit sooner or later.

The current shipment volume of 200,000 barrels a day is because central Libya is still relatively stable, and those warlords know how to keep the hens that lay golden eggs.

Boss Qiao now holds the pipe exit, and those in the middle must give him face.

But once Boss Joe cooperates with Haftar in the soft purge, and when people in the central region come to their senses and withstand Haftar’s pressure, and then cut off the supply of crude oil and negotiate with Boss Joe, who will Boss Joe cooperate with?

We can talk about anything, but P·B’s position must not be changed.

Because as long as it makes any move, P·B will fall into endless political strife, and even fall into senseless wars.

Just wanting to drag P·B down with US$350 million a year, Haftar is really overthinking.

Boss Qiao is the cook who is treating guests to dinner. If you want to spend some money to let Boss Qiao poison the people on the table, how is that possible?

Will P·B continue to do business in the future?

However, it is not an option to continue like this. Qiao Jia cannot help the National Army to defeat Beida and Tulemese at his own expense. Without the support of the United States, Britain and France, that thing is a bottomless pit.

Thinking about how busy he was with so many things and having to deal with all these nonsense, Qiao Jia shook his head dejectedly and said: "P·B can't help you establish the so-called law enforcement system, but P·B Two model police forces can be created in Tobruk and Bardi.

You issued a document acknowledging the legitimacy of the governments of the two cities, but still gave me money to establish police systems in Tobruk and Bardi.

As long as you can gain the upper hand politically, all that's left is to send people over for training. I can help you train enough people. "

As Joga looked at the slightly disappointed Haftar, he shook his head and said: "Brother, P.B. is not a savior. People recognize me because I can take care of the interests of most people.

Once my position changes, those guys who are eager to protect themselves might do something stupid.

Libya belongs to Libyans!

You are the boss of the National Army, and you should be responsible for building the police force yourself.

All I can do is make a good start, the rest is up to you!

Of course, if the law enforcement system is established, I will go across the city to fight against the terrorists in Bayda and Tulemsai who have evil intentions against Tobruk.

I will not occupy it, and there will be no conflict with those warlords. As long as the National Army approves, no one will have anything to say about what I do.

I want to help you, but only if it doesn't affect my position! "

After hearing this, Haftar said disappointedly: "Jackal, are you really not thinking about it? If it is a matter of price, we can still discuss..."

From Choga's perspective, Haftar can be considered an ambitious leader.

Unfortunately, the interests of both parties are not consistent, so Qiao Jia does not want to continue this topic.

Perhaps realizing that Choga was resolute, Haftar remained silent for a long time and then said: "Jackal, we are fighting against the Government of National Accord, and I need someone to support my rear.

I've read about your style and I feel like this is the best solution I can think of. "

Qiao Jia shook his head firmly and said: "Sir, you should understand that some things cannot be compromised. If you are really worried about the safety of the rear..."

After speaking, Qiao Jia hesitated and said: "You should have seen the situation outside, I am recruiting people.

If you are willing to offer me a contract, I can take care of part of the defense work in Benghazi for you, preferably at the airport and docks.

Some things cannot just be seen in front of you. Once I intervene in the disputes within the National Army, not only will I be in trouble, but you will also be in endless trouble.

You have an advantage now, but the French want you to maintain the status quo, the Russians want you to safeguard their interests, and the British will turn their guns to cause trouble for you after they defeat Al Qaeda.

As long as Tobruk is still in my hands, you will have bargaining chips in your hands, and as long as Tobruk remains stable, your basis for integrating the National Army will always exist.

Brother, I act as a balance. If you insist on me being a weight, once the balance of power shifts, the National Army will look different. "

Haftar could understand what Joga meant, and he quickly fell into deep thought.

But a man with glasses next to him didn't understand. The guy frowned and said: "Sir, don't you understand that P.B. and the National Army can gain the greatest benefits by joining forces...

The British have made conditions. As long as we can quickly coordinate internal issues, they will fully support us in defeating the National Unity Government.

And P.B. combined with us can quickly integrate all forces. "

Qiao Jia looked at this guy coldly and said funnyly: "If I were the kind of person you think I am, I would be able to make a lot of money now, money you can't even imagine in your life.

If you believe what the British say, you are stupid...

One-third of the National Army's financial entrance is in my hands. If things are really like what you said, what more can I get than now? "

As he spoke, Qiaojia ignored the guy who interrupted without permission. He frowned at Haftar and said, "If I were you, I would fire this guy. If you are affected by his short-sightedness for a long time, you will lose a lot in the future. s things."

After hearing this, Haftar comforted the bespectacled man who wanted to jump, then looked at Choga and said: "Jackal, a discount of 5 US dollars per barrel, I need 100 excellent soldiers to station at the airport in Benghazi." It will take at least half a year to ensure my safety.

At the same time, the previous conditions remain unchanged. You are responsible for the construction of law enforcement agencies in Tobruk and Baldi, but within 3 years I need you to help me train 5,000 people and provide each person with a set of equipment.

You are right, I can solve the problem through political means, and no one has any reason to stop me from bringing order to Libya.

I really shouldn't let P·B change his position. Stable Tobruk is the best for the National Army! "

As he spoke, Haftar patted the two bespectacled men on the shoulders and asked them to leave first, and then waited until they left before saying: "The guy who just spoke once studied in England, and the other one studied in Russia.

You should know my situation, sometimes I do get affected by the outside world.

Jackal, the British are fine, but your harvest in Tobruk makes a Russian oligarch jealous.

You may not realize that you have partially affected Europe's energy supply, which is very valuable to Russia. "

Hearing this news, Qiao Jia was stunned for a moment. This thing might be an unforeseen disaster...

The British hope that Libya will be more peaceful, and that everyone will work together to kill Al Qaeda, relieve their domestic anti-terrorism pressure, and at the same time transport sufficient crude oil to Europe.

The French hope that Libya will maintain a balance in the chaos so that they can bet on both sides and maintain control. At the same time, they hope that French companies will enter Libya to 'promote' Libya's energy supply to remain stable.

The Russians probably wanted Libya to remain fragmented, so when the United Nations announced its support for the legitimacy of the Government of National Accord and the chiefs cheered and tried to reunify Libya and then divide their interests, Haftar was pushed to the stage. And with the support of Russia, the National Army was established.

Russia probably wants the civil war in Libya to continue for a long time, so that their companies can make profits while looking for an ally in North Africa on the Mediterranean Sea.

As a result, Russia itself probably did not expect that when the two Libyan governments went to war, Al Qaeda jumped out and declared war on both sides at the same time, and caused many humanitarian disasters that attracted the attention of the international media.

At this time, Britain and France began to collectively turn to counter-terrorism. They were a little impatient with the weak National Unity Government that had some ties to Al Qaeda, so they began to urge and assist the two governments to fight against Al Qaeda at the same time.

Then, as the war continued, Russia found that the territory of the national army was getting bigger and bigger, and it became increasingly difficult for Haftar to control it.

What are Russia’s biggest political interests at this stage?

It is to use Europe's dependence on Russia's energy to exert influence on them, so as to alleviate Russia's international dilemma and increase foreign exchange earnings.

Their assistance to Haftar is not for the reconstruction of Libya, but to deeply influence the direction of Libya's energy policy.

While allowing domestic companies to reap benefits, this can be used to support Russia's own energy strategy and use superior resources to deepen its influence on Europe.

As a result, after they worked hard for a long time, the peach was picked away by P·B...

Nowadays, the Russians are a bit aggressive from outside, and Choga estimates that they are not optimistic about whether they can establish an advantageous position in Libya under the encirclement of Britain and France.

But now Tobruk is in the hands of PB and actually controls part of Libya's crude oil export share.

In the same situation, the Russian high-level officials would probably be interested in Choga.

For Russia, Britain and France are difficult to deal with because they have core conflicts of interest, but P·B is different.

Qiao Jia did not expect that such a thing as "trouble comes from the sky when someone is at home" would actually be caused by him.

Qiao Jia is not afraid, because when it comes to Da'ou, he can get the United States, Britain and France to support him at any time.

He is not worried about things on the table at all, because P.B.'s actions are reasonable and legal. The only thing he is worried about is the oligarch Haftar talked about...

To a certain extent, Russian oligarchs are not much different from gangsters. Those people make a fortune by harvesting state-owned assets. It is almost impossible to expect them to distinguish right from wrong and curb their greed.

Once the so-called oligarch makes up his mind, Qiao Jia will definitely have a chance with him, and this matter will probably never end without causing him a bloody head.

This is simply unreasonable, but that’s how the real world is.

Qiao Jia is just a 'cook'. He can't bring everyone to the table, and he can't stop the greed of people outside the table...

The news given by Haftar was a big favor, giving Joga ample time and space to respond.

Shaking hands with the National Army leader gratefully, Qiao Jia said with a smile: "Then proceed as you just said, I will arrange for Qory Amon to prepare a legal document..."

As he spoke, Qiao Jia looked outside through the gap in the tent, shook his head and said: "Originally, I only wanted 300 people, but now it seems I need to recruit more people...

I will do some screening among those mercenaries. I have some wheeled tanks sent by France, and then they will all be sent to Benghazi.

Brother, you have to hold on. If you miss such a good situation now, it will be very unlikely for Libya to get back on its feet. "
