Battlefield Contractor

"In this case, I'll give you this thing. You have been investigating secret society organizations secretly, and shaking up this information should be of great help to you. On the contrary, these things are of little use in our hands. "Lin Rui nodded to him.

Mr. K, thought about it, "This matter involves too much, not only the CIA, but also the intelligence agencies of several other countries.

If you really want to check, I have to plan it carefully. There are many things I can't even decide right away, I have to figure it out. "

"Of course, if you give things to you, it means that we still have absolute trust in you." Lin Rui nodded to him, "Don't thank me, if you have to, please do me a favor."

"I know, there is no free lunch here. Let's talk about it, what do you want me to do. As long as it is within the scope of ability." Mr. K nodded.

"Action flintlock." Lin Rui looked at him.

"Africa joint military exercise?" Mr. K looked at him and smiled. "The news is pretty well-informed."

Operation Flintlock is an annual joint exercise between the United States and Africa. It was first launched in 2005 and has been held for fifteen sessions so far.

The flintlock series of exercises is also the most important and the largest annual special operations joint exercise by the US military headquarters in Africa. Therefore, the US also attaches great importance to it.

"This is an annual large-scale joint military exercise, and the participation of military contractors is naturally indispensable. This year, we want to win the contracting rights for this exercise." Lin Rui looked at Mr. K.

"I'm afraid I can't help. You have to find the African Command of the U.S. Army." Mr. K shook his head.

"On the African Command side, we have naturally negotiated. We have already taken over most of the logistics support business. But I want more." Lin Rui looked at him.

"Okay, your business is getting bigger and bigger, and your appetite is getting bigger and bigger." Mr. K smiled. "What else do you want?"

"Security business. As far as I know, 1,600 soldiers from 31 countries participated in the exercise.

Including the United States, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Spain and the United Kingdom. And fifteen African countries.

And we know that in December last year the US military announced that it was considering a large-scale reduction or even a complete withdrawal of US troops stationed in West Africa. However, at the end of January this year, the US military stated that it would not completely withdraw, but would only adjust its military deployment in Africa. Military involvement in African affairs.

This shows that the U.S. military's military deployment in Africa will undergo major adjustments. Some bases will be closed, and some troops will be mobilized.

This shows that there will be a large number of military security requirements next. With our company's strength in Africa, we are fully capable of taking over these businesses.

Moreover, we also intend to participate in the consultation and evaluation of this military exercise. We have been talking with the US military in this regard, and I need to give us some assistance from your perspective. "Lin Rui replied.

"The large-scale flintlock military exercise can be said to be the largest joint military exercise in Africa. If you want to win a large number of military contracts, I am afraid it is not just for making money?" Mr. K looked at him.

"Yes, what I am after is these 15 African countries. This can further increase our influence in Africa. These African countries participating in the military exercises are all my potential customers.

I want Trident to truly be in African countries after this exercise. No one knows it. Lin Rui nodded to him.

"Be careful with trees." Mr. K patted his shoulder. "Although this is a coup to gain popularity quickly, to be honest, it is also a hot potato.

The situation in Africa is complex, and the region where terrorism is rampant is turbulent. Such military exercises are nominally tactical combat exercises to improve coordinated combat capabilities, communications and humanitarian response capabilities.

But in fact it is for counter-terrorism. The operation was nominally in charge of the African Command, but in reality, it was almost tailored to the instructions of the US Special Operations Command. "

"Special Operations Command?" Lin Rui frowned.

"Yes. You also know that we have withdrawn from Afghanistan. The US Special Operations Command has issued relevant instructions for the troops he is training and equipping them so that they can operate in a post-Afghan and Iraqi world.

Although the U.S. Special Operations Command does not have operational control of approximately 70,000 active combatants, a motion led by the former commander of the command, McRaven, helps to make special forces operate under the orders of global operations commanders. .

These combat commanders exercise combat control over their troops.

In fact, in 2001, US Commander McRaven introduced a plan when he took over the command of the US Special Operations Command. The plan is not only to deploy front-line combatants to obtain the latest intelligence in their combat areas, but also to allow them to establish contacts with other special operations forces around the world.

This is a project called the Global Special Operations Forces Network, which connects warfighters around the world and connects them with cross-departmental partners and regional allies.

The problem that the US Special Operations Command hopes to deal with is the continuous growth of criminal and terrorist groups linked by the Internet. These organizations have partial borders and operate throughout the region.

So, do you understand why it is so difficult to win this project? Taking on this project has not only consolidated the status of private military companies like you as contracting partners in the U.S. military.

Almost established influence over several other countries. Including not only those African countries, but also some European countries. "Mr. K looked at Lin Rui.

"No wonder it is so difficult to win this project. I am afraid that other military contractors are also working hard to win this project." Lin Rui nodded.

"Well, I see if I can help you. Although we can't control the opinion of the military. But I can help you from the other side." Mr. K nodded.

"How to help?" Lin Rui asked.

"There is a way. You also know that few private military companies in your business are completely clean. Several major companies have more or less shameful handles in our hands.

As long as my fingers loosen slightly, some unfavorable information will flow out. Regulators will intervene, and these companies will face such a short-term risk and become unsuitable to intervene in this project.

Because for private military companies, we also have a special security assessment to assess their risks. And use these evaluation reports to form guidelines for the military. "Mr. K smiled.
