Battlefield Contractor

Lin Rui nodded, "That's right. However, I decided to take on this task. The reason is simple. It is a French task. If you want to mix in Africa, it is best to have a good relationship with the French.

After we leave the black island, many things need to be solved by ourselves. If you have a good relationship with the French. It will give us a lot of convenience in the future. "

What he said is also the truth. France has a strong voice in the African continent, which even Americans can't match.

Although after World War II, the independence movement on the African continent surged, and the former French colonies gradually separated from France for independence. But France's voice in Africa is still very powerful.

As early as the end of the nineteenth century, France had controlled nearly 36% of the land in Africa, becoming the Western country with the most colonies in Africa. Africa has basically become the backyard of France.

Their control over the African colonies is much greater than that of "colonial counterparts" such as Britain and Germany. Therefore, in the two tragic world wars, France was able to successfully mobilize a large amount of manpower and material resources in the African colonies, and smashed against its deadly enemy Germany!

After the Second World War, the independence of the African colonies waved. Although France cannot keep its colonies, it still maintains very close relations with countries that have become independent from the colonies.

Since the 1980s, the French army has repeatedly overwhelmed various countries in Africa, and has also lost the nickname "African Gendarmerie".

Therefore, if a private military company wants to mix in Africa, the best way is to build a good relationship with the French. This is basically the consensus of all private military companies.

Actuary Mae Kishi also agreed, but he was still cautious about this task. "That said, we better be cautious about this task."

Lin Rui nodded, "I also considered whether to accept this task, but the words of Oscar before made me a little tempted. Do you still remember, he mentioned what he said about white gloves.

The two agents of theirs are investigating the sources of terrorist funds, and they believe that these are related to a person named White Gloves. "

"That white glove from the secret society?" Sergey was taken aback.

"I'm afraid it is. Although Oscar did not mention the secret society, according to our previous understanding, White Glove White is one of the high-level secret society organizations. And he is responsible for the economic aspects of the secret society, and for this purpose, large-scale money laundering. activity.

The military activities of terrorists require a lot of money. These funds cannot flow into their hands through normal channels. Because the whole world is blocking their access to funds.

So someone must control it. And White Glove White is an expert in this regard. "

"But haven't those terrorists fallen out with the secret agency?" Sergey frowned. "In Bill Enzalan, they fought a solid battle."

"Yes. Because of the fallout, these terrorists must be eager to transfer the money that the secret agency gave them. So these two agents are very important. They are likely to give the secret agency the entire financial chain that secretly supports the terrorists. dig it out.

If this happens, it will also be a heavy blow to the secret society. Even if it doesn't, it will involve more secret society activities. Now the French are willing to pay for us to do this, why don't we do it? "Lin Rui smiled.

"You originally had this level of consideration." The actuary nodded.

"Of course, cutting off the sources of funds for terrorists will also have a great effect on eliminating terrorists in Western Sahara. Moroccans will also pay for them if terrorists are dealt with. You can do more with one stone." Scarface nodded.

"That's it." Lin Rui nodded, "So, I decided to accept this mission. No matter how it looks, it is good for us."

"You are the boss, you make up your mind." Sergey nodded.

"It's done." Scarface also nodded.

The next day, Lin Rui gathered with the team members and Hewitt to discuss the detailed plan. And let Horus' intelligence team try to find a guide for them in the local area.

If life in the desert is very fragile, then the contrast between death and life is so strong that it is in the sinister salt marsh. Because no life form can exist on this beach of death.

These places should have been salt lakes. Because the lake water has risen in temperature thousands of years ago, the water vapor evaporates and salt precipitation is formed. The salt layer ranges from one meter to twenty to thirty meters. In this vast and open area, there is no sign of life.

"It is said that in ancient times, caravans were wiped out here." The guide explained to Lin Rui and the others. He is a typical Western Sahara, with very dark skin, but not as black as blacks. With the addition of black hair, Lin Rui even felt that he looked a bit like a tanned Chinese.

"How far is it from the nearest village?" Lin Rui asked.

"It's far away. There are no villages nearby because of lack of water." The guide shook his head. "There are several villages farther away, but there are troops there. It should be the place you are looking for."

"This place is full of deserts." Sergey whispered.

"Desert? Do you know how much this desert is worth?" The actuary asked him with a smile.

"Value?" Sergey frowned.

"The Sahara Desert is the largest desert in the world except Antarctica. The climatic conditions are extremely harsh, and it is one of the most unsuitable places for biological growth on the earth. However, this large desert is rich in oil, natural gas, uranium, iron, and manganese. And other mineral resources.

More importantly, it is also the largest reserve of phosphate. In this disputed area, Morocco claims to have 72% of the global phosphate reserves. China is the world's second largest country in terms of phosphate reserves, but reserves only account for 6%, and the rest of phosphate is scattered around the world.

During the 1960s, the widespread use of synthetic fertilizers saved millions of people from starvation. With the emergence of Haber's ammonia synthesis process, atmospheric nitrogen is converted into a form usable by crops, thereby greatly increasing food production.

But as the level of nitrogen in the soil increases, life requires a corresponding increase in phosphorus. Phosphorus exists in the form of phosphate in geological deposits all over the world, and the demand for phosphate has soared.

However, no matter how gratifying the technological progress, the technology for producing phosphorus like the Haber ammonia synthesis process will never exist. Because the amount of phosphorus on the earth is limited, they are trapped on the ground, and the only way to obtain it is to mine it.

This white powder is phosphate ore, one of the most valuable and important minerals in the world. Without phosphate, humans cannot meet the food needs of the growing population. "The actuary shook his head and said.

"So the people of Western Sahara are fighting for this?" Sergey frowned.

"Not exactly, but a large part of the reason is because of this." The actuary sighed.

"Be careful, there seems to be someone in front. Drive the car over there and hide it." Eric suddenly lowered the telescope in his hand and whispered.
