Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Ten days later, Li Lan returned to Bagua City, and Lin Meiqi came back with him.  ¡ü He spent ten days with Lin Meiqi, rarely attending joint activities between the two countries, and rarely even appeared in the media.  Ten days ago, the aftermath of the collision between the two American and Somali warships in the South Atlantic has not dissipated yet.  There are still a lot of topics about this matter internationally, which makes both parties very depressed.  The withdrawal of the United States surprised many people, because the outside world believed that this time would be the same as the Cuban Missile Crisis, and the United States would never make concessions.  But the result of the fact is that the United States really gave in. When faced with the menacing Somali fleet, it chose to give in.  However, anyone with a discerning eye can clearly see that the United States is not afraid, but is not fully prepared for war. This is different from the Cuban Missile Crisis, when the United States was already prepared to go to war as a last resort.  ¡°And the equipment sold by Somalia to the Union of South American Nations does not have ordinary weapons that can threaten the United States. This is one of the reasons why the Americans chose to retreat.  Rather than wasting your strength on such fruitless collisions, it is better to adjust your strength and prepare for an all-out battle.  Because once a war breaks out, it is very likely to be a long war, or even trigger the Third World War.  The whole world will be turned upside down by this.  And Somalia¡¯s response was very dull. It did not deliberately publicize the matter and acted very ordinary, as if nothing happened.  The injured warships on both sides have returned to their respective military ports for repairs.  The United States also began to salvage the Los Angeles-class attack nuclear submarine that was sunk.  However, this submarine is no longer usable.  It can only be cut or recycled as scrap metal.  However, this news is not known to the outside world.  After all, it would be difficult for the United States to explain to its citizens the loss of an attack nuclear submarine.  In the following time, diplomacy around the world became more frequent, especially on the African continent. The African Union suddenly held a special heads of state summit, requiring the heads of state of each country to attend.  It is still the AU headquarters in Addis Ababa. Li Lan once again chaired this summit of heads of state. The number of African heads of state in front of him was only half of what it once was.  Because most of the countries in Africa have agreed to join the specific construction of the African Community.  Form an African federal state.  As the biggest brother in Africa, Somalia naturally did its part, and all other small African countries have agreed. There are only a few countries left, and they are all Mediterranean coastal countries.  These countries have always been under strict control of NATO, including Egypt, and Libya has been overthrown.  On the coast of the North Atlantic, the attitudes of these countries are somewhat ambiguous. First of all, they are very envious of the economy driven by Somalia.  We also hope to catch the fast train of African economic development.  But they are worried about the influence of NATO countries. Now the whole world is exuding a strong smell of gunpowder. They are not fools and can ask.  There was naturally some hesitation in my heart.  After all, as a place separated from Europe by the Mediterranean Sea, once a war breaks out, it will become a place where the NATO group will attack.  And this time.  Li Lan just wants to bring these countries in. Those who cannot be brought in will not be imprisoned.  When war breaks out, these countries will immediately be engulfed by the flames of war. ?Or choose Somalia.  Otherwise, there is absolutely no third option to choose NATO, because they simply do not have the strength and qualifications to remain neutral.  In the face of two super military groups, there are always only two choices.  ¡°Both the heads of state who have agreed to join the African Federation and those who have not agreed to join the African Federation gathered on time at the AU headquarters.  Before the meeting officially started, in Li Lan's hotel, an admired figure knocked on his door.  When he learned that the person was coming, he was somewhat surprised, but he immediately let the person in.  Sisi is a political figure that Li Lan is very familiar with, because he is the second most popular president in Africa. He was elected President of Egypt with nearly 97% of the votes, and continued to win more than 95% of the votes four years later.  , re-elected to the presidency.  As a soldier, Sisi has a temperament that Li Lan admires very much. Although the president has a very close relationship with the United States, he still has a good impression of him.  Because Sisi is a devout Muslim and has good relations with all countries in the Middle East. His relationship with Somalia cannot be said to be close because the United States has always had a good attitude towards Somalia.  When Serbia defeated Israel in Somalia,Xi also personally sent a congratulatory message to Li Lan, congratulating Somalia on winning the war and hoping that Somalia, as a member of a Muslim country, should continue to play a greater role.  Since then, Li Lan has become more fond of Sisi.  Now is a very critical moment for the two military groups. Each is making intensive preparations. Li Lan naturally has no need to refuse Sisi's sudden visit.  In Li Lan¡¯s room at the African Union headquarters, a cup of Addis Ababa¡¯s most classic coffee was personally delivered to Sisi.  From the time they came in until now, the two of them didn¡¯t say a word, they just looked at each other silently.  Quietly taste the most authentic coffee in the world.  "President Li, I have been very close to you for a long time. Today's meeting is the first time. From a close look, whether it is temperament or other aspects, you are several times better than the rumors." Sisi took the lead to put down the coffee in his hand and said.  "I have been friends with President Sisi for a long time. Egypt has a very long history. As one of the four ancient civilizations, there should be many common topics between you and me." Li Lan replied.  "That's true. I have always admired the profoundness of Chinese culture for President Li's home country. I have been to China several times and I really have a deep understanding. And I also admire President Li very much, but it's just that  I will never let go of my position and identity, otherwise I would have gone to Somalia to have a good exchange with you," Sisi said.  "It's not too late now. The whole world knows that the two major military groups will have a battle sooner or later. The countries along the Mediterranean Sea have naturally become a top priority, especially your country. Controlling the Suez Canal has a strategic geographical advantage.  It is bound to be the center of contention between the two parties. At this time, I am both surprised and relieved that you can come to me." Li Lan directly changed the topic to business. He was not in the mood to accompany the other party.  , exuding extremely strong confidence on his face, he continued: "Both Egypt and Somalia are members of the African community. As African countries, we should all unite to realize the ideal of common progress in Africa, because I hope that Africa  It will become the center of the next world. I have the confidence and the strength." Sisi looked stunned and said, "President Li is a rare hero.  This is a fact that cannot be denied by the whole world. Egypt has inextricably linked relations with the United States and NATO countries. This is a situation that Egypt cannot get rid of. Even though I am the president, there is nothing I can do about it. This is the will of the country.  "Then you came here today just to tell me this?" Li Lan asked expressionlessly.  "Of course not. Although Egypt has very good relations with NATO countries, it still has deep friendships with many Muslim countries, which is a relationship that cannot be erased. I am a Muslim myself, and I naturally hope that the Muslim world will be more prosperous and stay away from war.  " Sisi immediately shook his head, as if worried that Li Lan had misunderstood, and hurriedly explained: "Egypt does not want to be an enemy of anyone, let alone a country with the same beliefs, and it cannot be an enemy of NATO, which controls Egypt's military and economic knowledge.  The enemy, so I came here today just to hope that Egypt can be left alone." After hearing this, Li Lan did not speak immediately, but stood up and walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling window with his back to Sisi, looking vaguely.  Addis Ababa, a cosmopolitan city, kept weighing Sisi's words in its mind.  Time passed slowly in silence. For Sisi, time seemed to have stopped. Looking closely at Li Lan's back, his heart was already filled with seconds.  After a long time, Li Lan finally said: "Sisi, do you know what I was thinking just now?" Sisi was a little confused when he heard this, and said, "Of course I don't know, but I hope it's not the thought of war." "No.  "Not at all." Li Lan shook his head and asked, "Do you know how many NATO military bases there are in Africa?" "Forty-three," Sisi said.  "Yes! Forty-three military bases and more than 50,000 NATO troops stationed. Do you know what this number means?" Li Lan nodded and said.  Sisi nodded, but he did not say anything.  "This means that NATO has the ability to take military operations in Africa at any time. In the past ten years, NATO countries have carried out more than a thousand secret military operations at these NATO military bases in Africa, and our intelligence agencies and the CIA have conducted hundreds of them.  The 5th Intelligence Service and other NATO intelligence agencies carried out follow-up competitions, assassinations, counter-assassinations, subversion of local power, and support of the armed forces" Li Lan still faced the city, with a sense of sadness in his words, "Somalia has always been  Want to drive NATO out of Africa, but it has been?It cannot be done completely. Over the years, thousands of people have died on hidden fronts. Even in Egypt, similar conflicts have occurred.  " "Then what exactly do you want to express?  "Sisi was very confused by what the other party said and asked immediately. "What I want to express is very simple. Once a war breaks out, no one in Africa can be alone. The Suez Canal is in Egypt and is related to its strategic position. Even if you want to remain neutral,  , NATO will not let you remain neutral, so even if I agree to your idea, NATO will not agree.  If you block the Suez Canal to us, it will be tantamount to declaring war on us, I think you will understand.  "Li Lan turned around, stared into Sisi's eyes, and said very seriously. "I just don't want the people to fall into war. Egypt cannot fight you.  It cannot become a battlefield for your games.  "Sisi shook his head with a wry smile. He didn't understand this truth. But even so, he would give it a try. As long as he could convince Li Lan, he would immediately convince the United States. "You are too naive. It's not just you.  , all African countries along the Mediterranean coast are too naive.  Once the African Federation is formally established and a war breaks out with NATO, then all countries on the European or African continent will be affected.  It is an absolute fact that no one can truly remain neutral.  It doesn't matter whether you believe me or not.  I think you can think about it clearly.  "Li Lan said lightly. "I can't make a choice.  "After Sisi was silent for a while, he spoke helplessly again. "Then I will tell you the consequences of your choice. If Egypt chooses NATO, then I can tell you that I will send troops to Egypt without the outbreak of war, and I will use  With the power of thunder, destroy all resistance in Egypt, and you will become my prisoner.  I may not kill you, but you will never be free for the rest of your life.  And I guarantee that NATO will never have time to support you, because Egypt is too close to Somalia. It only takes two hours for my army to appear in Cairo and around your presidential palace.  Your troops with American equipment are vulnerable to me.  " One second Li Lan was still full of evil spirits, and the next second she felt like a breath of fresh air for Sisi, saying: "If you choose Somalia.  I will tell you that in an hour my army will be in Egypt, and that the defense of Egypt will be launched as soon as possible, within a day.  The equipment of three armies will be delivered to Egypt and into the hands of your army within three days.  Install ten battalions of anti-aircraft missile units in Egypt.  Air Force fighter planes will immediately include Egypt in the alert patrol range, and our early warning opportunities will begin to be deployed in the Mediterranean Sea.  My security forces will immediately protect all Egyptian dignitaries and begin clearing out all NATO spies in Egypt.  " Having said that, Li Lan walked up to Sisi, patted him on the shoulder, and continued: "If NATO dares to take action against Egypt, it will be equivalent to Somalia declaring war. I am determined to protect every ally. How am I as a person?  I don¡¯t need to emphasize it anymore!  " Sisi's face fluctuated instantly. He was first frightened by Li Lan's evil tone, and then was soothed by Li Lan's friendly look. "Of course I don't dare to make Somalia an enemy.  I am more aware of the gap in strength between the two parties, and I also trust you very much as a person.  However, once a war breaks out, Egypt will inevitably become the focus of NATO's attack. NATO's troops number in the millions, and they are all elite troops. Their fighter planes will arrive in Egypt in only an hour.  "At this point, Sisi did not continue, because this was enough. "You have to consider it yourself. I will respect your decision, but I will not hesitate to implement my ideas.  I just suggest that you don¡¯t make a decision too quickly, because once you make a decision, Egypt will immediately fall into the flames of war. I also advise you that Egypt had better stop cooperating with NATO¡¯s intelligence agencies recently because of the hidden front.  , the smoke of war is already everywhere.  "Li Lan said lightly. He did not force the other party to make an immediate decision, but gave him a suggestion, hoping that he would make a choice. "Thank you for your suggestion, I will fully consider it.  "Sisi nodded, but he was already caught in a battle between heaven and man. "Come here, does anyone else know?  Li Lan asked suddenly. Sisi shook his head and said, "This kind of thing must be kept strictly confidential."  " "I suggest you take off your shoes immediately and look around. Maybe there will be something you can't imagine.  "Li Lan said. "Sisi was stunned for a moment. Thinking of the other party's previous sentence, he immediately took off his shoes, looked left and right, but found nothing, and asked, "No problem!"  "    "Yeah?  "Li Lan picked up one of the shoes, looked at it a few times, then put it back on the ground, then picked up the other shoe and tapped it on the heel.A smile appeared on his face.  He walked aside, picked up a glass sculpture, and hit the heel of his shoe hard, breaking the heel open. A small listening device fell on the table.  "Fortunately, I have activated electromagnetic interference here, otherwise our conversation would have been known to others. And this person is someone who is following you now." Li Lan said.  "How is this possible? My people actually" Sisi's face became very ugly. He couldn't help but believe in the listening devices in Li Lan's hands.  "Don't be angry, and don't show it. I will continue to put this thing back, and you will act like you don't know anything." Li Lan said calmly: "As for you being eavesdropped, it doesn't matter to me.  Secretly, NATO will definitely focus on you people at this time. I believe that more bugs will be secretly placed at the beginning of this meeting. " "I will consider your suggestions carefully.  ." Without saying anything else, Sisi put on the heels of his shoes again and said goodbye to Li Lan immediately.  The door closed again, and Li Lan smiled slightly. The conference had not even started yet, but he had already achieved something good.  ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUT out of mind, because it is not difficult to defeat such a country. If the other side chooses to go against him, Egypt can be used as a battlefield.  Sisi¡¯s sudden visit can be regarded as an unexpected gain. Originally, he had begun planning to increase military penetration into Egypt and capture Egypt as soon as possible if necessary.  Now it seems that things are not as bad as he imagined.  ¡°At least Egypt still has a chance not to rely on NATO, but this requires Sisi¡¯s great courage, otherwise a Muslim¡¯s relationship will not be able to influence his sense of responsibility for a country.  Because on the surface, NATO¡¯s military strength is much higher than that of Somalia. Many countries will choose NATO in order to ensure security.  This is the norm.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature. The novels will be better and updated faster!
