After the Brazilian Civil War, Umbrella became famous and everyone had a new understanding of this company.

Umbrella has always claimed that it only serves the private security field. It is best at personal security services and is in a subordinate position when providing security services for large-scale events.

Of course, the actual business scope is definitely not limited to this. The armies formed by the Umbrella Company have even participated in world wars. However, this still cannot fundamentally change people's deep-rooted prejudices against the Umbrella Company. When mentioning Umbrella, most people are disdainful.

"War Hyenas".

After the Brazilian Civil War, people were surprised to find that Umbrella, the "war hyena", actually had the ability to defeat the US Marine Corps. This was so shocking. This was not a "war hyena", it was clearly the "King of War"

rhythm.

As a result, more and more people are paying attention to this company with 25,000 regular employees.

This is very embarrassing. Many countries do not have 25,000 troops.

Most of the mercenaries of Key Umbrella Company are experienced veterans, the kind who have actually fought bloody battles on the battlefield. Everyone knows the significance of veterans to the army, so how strong will the combat effectiveness of an army composed entirely of veterans be?

?

People didn't know that before.

Now I know.

A force composed entirely of veterans can defeat opponents of the same level as the U.S. Marine Corps even if their equipment is not superior.

As various countries conduct more and more in-depth research on umbrella companies, more and more of Umbrella's so-called "secrets" are exposed. Now Umbrella has attracted much attention. A French media used the term "iceberg" to describe Umbrella's strength.

Everyone knows that the part of the iceberg exposed to the sea is only a small part, and the part hidden under the sea is even larger. No one knows how big it is. The current protective umbrella is obviously like this.

Unlike the umbrella that has been established for 30 years, Pan Asia Corporation was established in less than two months, and it was obviously established for the oil fields in Sarawak.

The background of Pan Asia Co., Ltd. is complicated. It not only has the background of the Japanese government and Japanese military industrial enterprises, but also the technology is provided by American oil companies. After signing a development agreement with British Malaya, Pan Asia Co., Ltd. quickly acted to develop offshore projects.

The location of oil wells will be determined and exploration efforts in the waters near Sarawak will be expanded.

Strictly speaking, Sarawak is not yet a British colony, but an independent kingdom established by white people - the Brooke Dynasty.

The first king of the Brooke dynasty, James Brooke, was an Englishman who served in the East India Company's army. In 1837, James Brooke planned the independence of Sarawak. In 1841, he was appointed Governor of Sarawak and announced the following year.

The Kingdom of Sarawak was established.

The initial area of ​​Sarawak was very small, but in the subsequent years of 1853, 1861, 1883, 1890 and 1905, Sarawak's territory has been expanding until today it covers an area of ​​more than 120,000 square kilometers.

The current King of Sarawak, Charles Brooke, is the nephew of James Brooke, the first King of Sarawak.

Charles Brooke's original name was Charles Johnson, and he inherited the surname James Brooke when he succeeded to the throne.

Although he is the king of Sarawak, Charles Brooke does not live in Kuching, the capital of Sarawak, but lives in the more prosperous Lion City all year round.

The Japanese Embassy in Sarawak in Kuching is a wooden building with a traditional oriental style. Satoshi Tsunoda, the president of Pan Asia Co., Ltd., has lived here since he came to Kuching.

Sarawak is rich in all kinds of valuable timber. It was once one of the world's largest exporters of tropical hardwoods. Before the discovery of oil fields, timber exports were the main economic pillar of Sarawak. In addition, there are oil palm, pepper, and rubber.

and other various economic crops.

Oil palm and natural rubber are also in urgent need of Japan.

Of course, it can also be said in other words, as long as it is the industrial raw materials needed for modern industry, Japan is short of them and wants them all——

It's a pity that I can only think about it.

"Southern Africans came to Sarawak earlier than us. Now the plantations in Sarawak are basically controlled by southern Africans or East Indians. We came to Sarawak at about the same time as the southern Africans, but the empire

The emphasis on Sarawak is obviously insufficient. If we want to save the situation, we need to increase investment in Sarawak." Tsunoda has great ambitions. Countries in Southeast Asia, like African countries, are all treasures.

It's a pity that the Japanese came too late.

In today's Southeast Asia, the United States colonized the Philippines, the British colonized Malaya, the French colonized the French East Indies, and the Dutch East Indies, after independence, are now the sphere of influence in southern Africa, and Japan can only look back and sigh.

"European and American ghosts have stretched their hands too far. Asia should be Asia for Asians, and all European and American ghosts should be driven away!" Nakamura Kuro, the Japanese ambassador to Sarawak, was born in the military and has a tough attitude. Like most Japanese, Nakamura Kuro

He is a staunch supporter of the Japanese version of the "Monroe Doctrine."

So again, in the context of ****, everyone in Japan has a responsibility. Without the fanatical support of the people, Japanese careerists would not be able to come to power.

Since military expansion enjoys the dividends of national development.

Then when expansion fails, you should bear the corresponding consequences.

"We have made new progress in exploration. The reserves of the oil field are likely to be more than 2 million tons, and may reach up to 10 million tons." Satoshi Tsunoda is very excited. The more reserves, the greater the benefits.

Of course this is not all a good thing.

The 2-million-ton oil field is not favored by Anglo American Petroleum and Royal Shell.

Oil fields with a capacity of 10 million tons are still worth investing in.

So Nakamura Kuro's first reaction was to hide the news.

"Immediately block this news, and speed up our speed to build offshore oil wells as quickly as possible. The empire needs oil." Nakamura Kuro was born in the military, so he naturally understands how strong the Japanese military's desire for oil is.

Japan is still a little better than Westerners in this regard. After all, it is influenced by Han culture and has the concept of taking precautions for a rainy day.

So don't look at it. Even if the United States agrees to blockade Japan, it is still doing business with the Japanese secretly.

But if one day the Americans suddenly and resolutely implement the League of Nations' sanctions and interrupt trade with the Japanese, Japanese aircraft and tanks will be completely destroyed.

In fact, warships are not very dependent on oil. The main power of warships in most countries is still steam engines. Only countries that are not short of oil, such as the United States and southern Africa, are increasingly using internal combustion engines, but steam engines are still the main power.

.

Even if the Japanese Combined Fleet has no oil, it can still use steam engines and will not be trapped.

However, airplanes and army tanks all use internal combustion engines. Without oil, they are just a pile of scrap metal.

"The oil platform we ordered has been shipped in the United States and will be shipped soon. Construction will begin as soon as the oil platform arrives." Tsunoda Tomoya is worried about long nights and long dreams.

Satoshi Tsunoda's worries are not unreasonable.

While the Japanese were busy preparing for the oil platform, King Charles Brooke had a guest at his palace in the Lion City.

A guest that Charles Brooke could not refuse.

"Your Majesty, good morning -" Danny Jonson is a senior manager of the South African Company. The South African Company controls all timber export business in Sarawak, so Danny Jonson does not need to make an appointment to see Charles Brooke.

"Good morning Danny, the sun is shining brightly today, so what you brought to me must be good news, right?" Charles Brooke was in a good mood during this time. The discovery of the oil field will become another great source of wealth for the Kingdom of Sarawak.

Charles Brooke's personal fortune would increase rapidly.

This shows the difference between Rock and Charles Brooke.

When Luo Ke earned a certain amount of money, he began to consciously increase employee salaries and benefits and create a middle class in large quantities on the premise of ensuring the necessary funds for enterprise development.

The discovery of oil fields in Sarawak had nothing to do with the Sarawakians. All the money given by the Japanese fell into Charles Brooke's personal pocket. What Charles Brooke loves to do now is to calculate his wealth.

After Pan Asia Co., Ltd. paid the first payment, Charles Brooke's first reaction was not to provide welfare to the people, nor to invest in Sarawak's infrastructure, but to order a 110-meter-long ship from Edward Shipyard.

meters of luxury yacht.

As for private jets——

Charles Brooke already has three.

"Yes, of course it's good news -" Danny Jonson's smile was like a breath of fresh air, but Charles Brooke knew how ruthless Danny Jonson was.

Just two months ago, loggers in Sarawak went on strike for higher wages.

The South African company refused to compromise. According to the company's relevant regulations, if the strike lasted for more than a week, all striking workers would be fired and a group of African-American workers would be sent all the way from Africa.

This result surprised the loggers in Sarawak.

You must know that the salary of African workers is actually similar to the salary of locals in Sarawak.

Therefore, coupled with freight, the cost of the South African company will definitely increase.

But Danny Jonson would rather do this than increase the lumberjacks' wages, which put the lives of all striking lumberjacks in trouble.

At this time, the striking workers wanted to return to work in the company, but the South African company had refused to accept it.

"Your Majesty, you know that our South African company is the largest food processing company in the world. Our great Mr. Rhodes decided to set up a food processing factory in Sarawak to process Sarawak's seafood on site. This will not only

Providing more jobs to Sarawak and increasing your income at the same time." Danny Jonson's words made Charles Brooke excited, which must be a good thing.

However, after Charles Brooke learned deeply about the South African company's plans, Charles Brooke ran into difficulties.

The South African company's plans also include offshore fishing grounds.

This part highly coincides with the oil field area.

Charles Brooke even suspected that the South African company was going to the oil fields.
