Battlefield Contractor
Chapter 5557: Military complex
"The smokescreen that confuses us? But what are they hiding?" Kuaima frowned. "Is their target Camp Lemonier or somewhere else?"
Lin Rui shook his head, "I don't know. The situation is still unclear. These few are obviously just small characters spreading smoke.
The real big fish is still behind. And we still don’t know its true purpose.
Judging from the consistent behavior of the secret agency, they have used so many preludes, which definitely means that there will be major events. "
Kuai Ma whispered, "Perhaps we should contact Deng Shen Island to see what news is available from Aladdin."
"Aladdin?" Lin Rui frowned.
"He is a former veteran of the secret society, and he knows their behavior better than we do.
And he still has some relationships within the secret society organization, or can give us some inspiration. "Black Mamba also agrees.
"I'm afraid this can only be the case." Lin Rui thought for a while, "I am responsible for contacting Aladdin. You can contact Horus and ask him to inquire about the development of the British army."
"What's going on with the British army?" Black Mamba hesitated.
"That's right, the movement of the Red Baron of the Secret Society, as long as you stare at the Orumi Federation.
What is more difficult is the Grand Duke of the Secret Society, the former Silver Wolf, who now imposts an officer in the British army.
If this matter was initiated by him, then try to stare at him, there may be accidental discoveries. Lin Rui explained.
After walking out of the interrogation room, Lin Rui shook his head tiredly, lit a cigarette, and called Aladdin by the way.
"Mr. Rick?" It was Aladdin's bodyguard Duncan who answered the call.
"Let Aladdin answer the phone, I need to consult him about something." Lin Rui said helplessly.
"Okay, wait a minute." Duncan turned around and put the phone in his hand to Aladdin's ear.
"Mr. Rick, I forgot to congratulate you. I heard that you won the contract for the flintlock drill." Aladdin smiled.
"This is a great benefit for Trident. More than 30 countries participated in this exercise.
After the exercise, your reputation in African countries will truly peak.
As we all know, Africa's share of mercenary business in the world can account for almost two-thirds.
Now this cake is yours. As a shareholder of Trident, I am happy for you. "
"Thank you Ji Yan. However, things are probably not that simple." Lin Rui whispered.
"Oh?" Aladdin seemed surprised, "Could there be any changes?"
"Is there any change? I'm not sure." Lin Rui replied. "However, there is a trickier problem now."
Lin Rui told him what happened in the past few days.
Aladdin was silent for a while, "Terrorist attack?"
"Yes, the scale is not large. Although it is currently aimed at civilians, it is actually very likely to go for this flintlock exercise.
But I don’t know whether it was at Camp Lemonier or elsewhere in the exercise. "Lin Rui replied.
"Wait, did you mention the B-52 bomber?" Aladdin frowned.
"That's just what the U.S. military uses to pretend. It only participates in bomb-carrying flights and has no other missions." Lin Rui replied.
"Flying with bombs? I see, the B-52 bomber took off and landed in Africa, probably in response to the Russian bomber's appearance in Africa last year.
Yankees like to show their muscles, and they do all these things. "Aladdin chuckled, "Is it convenient to reveal what kind of bomb it is?" "
"There are rules. I am afraid I can't talk about the confidentiality of the employer." Lin Rui shook his head.
"Even if you don't say it now, in a few days it will become blatant in various newspapers and media. The Yankee is just for propaganda.
However, in October last year, two Russian Tu-160 strategic bombers had landed at Waterkloof Air Force Base in South Africa.
This is the first time that the Russian Tu-160 strategic bomber has appeared in Africa and has attracted great attention from the outside world.
The US military used this exercise to respond to Russian actions.
Therefore, they will not send two B-52 bombers in peace. Instead, he will take this opportunity to show his strength.
To show strength, I am afraid that these two bombers will carry the latest AGM-183A missiles.
Take this opportunity to gain momentum. "Aladdin chuckled, "I guess it's correct." "
Lin Rui sighed secretly. This old fox is really powerful, and can judge most of the facts only by guessing.
Aladdin heard Lin Rui's silence and smiled slightly, "If this is the case, I guessed something.
But it’s a long story. Are you interested in listening? "
"Let's talk, I'll listen." Lin Rui replied.
"Have you heard of the military-industrial complex?" Aladdin said slowly.
"I haven't heard it much." Lin Rui frowned.
"The military-industrial complex, also known as the Iron Triangle of the Military Industry, or the Iron Triangle for short, is a huge interest group composed of the military, military-industrial enterprises, and some members of the U.S. Congress.
Since the military-industrial complex involves not only the military, but also defense companies, and even Congress, its impact is extremely far-reaching.
As early as the 1950s, the then U.S. President Dwight David Eisenhower stated in his famous "Farewell Speech",
The American people are warned to be wary of the harm caused by the monster of the military-industrial complex.
However, over time, the military-industrial complex between the United States and Europe, especially the United States, has not been restricted, but has been behind the manipulation of the political, diplomatic, military, and military strategies of the United States and European countries.
On the one hand, its magical shadow has penetrated into the daily lives of ordinary people. On the other hand, the rapid development of the military-industrial complex has also made it difficult for countries to operate their national defense economies without leaving private enterprises.
U.S. practice has proved that among the large contractors of the U.S. Department of Defense in recent years,
The top three are Lockheed-Martin Company, Boeing Aircraft Company and Northrop-Grumman Company.
Among them, Lockheed Martin mainly produces military aircraft and missiles, and is a so-called "pure" defense contracting company.
Northrop-Grumman is also a "pure" defense contracting company in the United States, focusing on the production of various types of missiles.
The Boeing Aircraft Company is actually a "semi" defense contracting company. The company mainly produces civilian aircraft but also accepts orders from the US Department of Defense.
According to statistics, the three defense contractors mentioned above receive hundreds of billions of dollars in contracts from the US Department of Defense each year.
In addition, General Dynamics, Raytheon, and British BAE Systems have also become the main recipients of US defense contracts. "Aladdin said slowly.
"Large military industry group." Lin Rui nodded, "Of course I know the energy they have. These big companies have close relations with the military. This is not news."
