The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer
Chapter 2030: Great Lakes
Tomorrow, Xiang Weirong and Joseph will fly to Kinshasa on behalf of the group, and will be invited to have a meeting with Kabila-bringing Burundi, Rwanda and Uganda's troops back to their own territories is not a big problem, but it will cost Kinshasa. .
There is no free lunch in this world. The Sunshine Star Group needs the new government not only to recognize all previous agreements with the Mobutu government, but also a bunch of agreements waiting to be signed by the other side.
In Zhang Nan’s words: “The land is still yours, but I help you raise so many miners. There are countless people living on me in those areas, and they live better than the citizens of Kinshasa. You have to express it. ?"
I am not afraid that others will not agree. This will make Kabila control at most a quarter of Zaire's territory, and it is hard to say that these sites are not protected, and the interests of other regions have nothing to do with him.
Those agreements will only bring benefits to the current Kabila government, and there is no actual loss of a cent. According to the thinking of African politicians, he will 100% agree.
Mobutu was good enough at the time. He was known as one of the most famous dictators in Africa. But before the Sunshine Star Group entered Zaire, nearly two-thirds of the country’s interests were related to him. Irrelevant.
In most places, they are in charge of themselves. The tribal forces and local armed forces are strong. If you want to intervene in Kinshasa, it is war.
Continue to deploy troops here. A small amount of Tswa fighters from the two regiments will be transported by air, and most of the rest will be transported by rail to the important economic center of eastern Zaire, the city of Kalemie in Tanganyika Province.
Next to the huge Lake Tanganyika, the more important city is the Great Lakes Railway (the Great Lake is the sixth largest lake in the world with an area of 32,900 square kilometers and an area of 32,900 square kilometers, with a length of 679 kilometers in the north and an average width of 50 kilometers. It is also the second deepest lake in the world after Lake Baikal.) The end point and an important lake port.
Before the outbreak of the war, there were regular air routes between Kalemie and Tanzania and Burundi. Those two countries were on the opposite side of the lake, where the land and water transshipment business was busy.
At present, the Great Lakes Railway and the Great Africa Railway have been connected, and heavy troops can be transported from Botswana there. On this continent, the railway line is the strongest chain that controls the land.
Air transportation is also relatively convenient. The length of the airport runway in Kalemie City is only 1,550 meters. Even the Boeing 737 takes off and landed a little bit, but it is open enough to easily take off and land on the 22 giant transport aircraft.
That is the absolute control zone of the group. It is also at the far north of the absolute control zone in eastern Zaire, and further north. For example, the city of Bukavu in South Kivu is larger, but only a few armed personnel from the combined forces are present. In order to safeguard the group's interests in that large area, there is no absolute control.
South Kivu is too messy. It is enough to be able to do so to the extent that others dare not come to provoke oneself. If it is really occupied, the millions of refugees over there will be a headache!
Don't do business at a loss.
Tanganyika Province is different. Not only is there almost no refugees, but the environment is good and prosperous.
The lakeside area produces high yields of rice, cassava, sweet potato, sorghum, wheat, millet and beans, and also grows a large number of cash crops such as coffee, cotton, oil palm, tobacco, pyrethrum, cashew, sisal, and castor.
There are more than 300 kinds of fish in the big lake, which provides a considerable source of protein for the more than 1 million residents of the lake. In the past, they were so many that they could be exported to countries all over the world.
The Great Lakes region belongs to the affluent area of Zaire. Moreover, the lake is 774 meters above sea level, and the climate is very suitable for human habitation. The annual temperature is between the lowest of 16 and 7 to the highest of 28 and 9 degrees every day.
Occasionally, the lowest can reach 14 or 5, and the extreme high temperature can reach 31 or 2, but such extreme weather is very rare.
There is no cold, no scorching heat, it is not an exaggeration to call it a spring city.
In Black Africa, not all places are very hot, but many places are quite comfortable.
......
Near noon on August 2, a restaurant on the east bank of Lake Tanganyika, north of Kalemie.
On the open second floor, a few meters in front is the big lake, there is a small wharf beside it, and the airport runway is less than 300 meters west of the restaurant.
This is a hotel, tourism and leisure area. The conditions are relatively simple compared to developed countries, but it is really good in Zaire, at least it looks clean.
Most of the tables on the second floor of this meeting were empty, and there were four people, one Chinese and three Europeans.
Four long guns were leaning against the dining table, two M14s with scopes and two AKMs, and the three seated men also had Glocks inserted in their waist holsters.
Zhang Zhenjin has been here for half a year. He is responsible for the defense of the company's Dahu area, training and training the tribal armed forces who have taken refuge there, and occasionally teaches people who are unhappy.
As for the other three who just came yesterday, Dwight Brad is an old partner and was a good friend during the Philippine jungle warfare training base.
On this trip, Brad brought a group of folks who were familiar with Jungle Station. Zhang Zhenjin was here to meet the wind for an old friend.
As for Dakota Harrison and Craig Mayer, they have been with Brad in southern Sudan some time ago. This trip is to have a meal. They have dealt with and are familiar with before.
There is a drop of three or four meters between the lake shore and the water surface, plus one storey high, it is sunny again today, and you can see it far from the railing.
Lake Tanganyika is just like the sea, majestic and majestic. You can see little white sails. The air is pollution-free. You can even vaguely see the rolling mountains on the opposite bank of the lake about 50 to 60 kilometers away.
Those white sails are the sails of small fishing boats. There are far fewer motor boats than sailing boats. There has been war in the north, and the tourist facilities and hotels have fewer foreign guests, but the people on the lake still have to live, and the fishermen have to fish to support their families.
The four of them are chatting, and the food will be served in a while, it's still early. Hearing the sound of a motor from a pier not far away, a modern-looking high-speed speedboat approached the pier.
Soon the speedboat landed, and two people came down.
Zhang Zhenjin saw the people who came and found that one of them was still carrying a big fish, so he smiled and stood up and signaled to him: "Here, I'm waiting for you!"
The one carrying the fish over there also waved to see it.
After sitting down, Zhang Zhenjin said to the other three: "Then my two navy fellows, Hu Xiaoping and Yao Sifu, are very straightforward..."
As soon as the people went up to the second floor, they introduced each other, so Harrison and Mayer did not recognize the newcomers. Brad had encountered them twice in the Gambia.
As soon as everyone sat down, Zhang Zhen teased Hu Xiaoping: "How did you two become fishermen from the navy?"
Speaking of that fish, it is estimated that this will have been handed over to the kitchen, and here we can process it on behalf of the customers.
Hu Xiaoping lit a cigarette and said with a smile: "We are not called the navy. For the time being, we are the Lake Army. We are all running to the Continental Center.
On patrol just now, I saw a fishing boat that had just reaped its nets, and there was a good product. The guide said it was a tan bream, which was grilled the day before yesterday, and the meat was comfortable.
Seeing the alive and kicking, I bought a few, knowing that there is a Chinese cook in this hotel. This is called Adding a Vegetable.
By the way, how is your friend Jiang from the cook? "
Wherever the joint forces are, this Huaxia cook or Huaxia Restaurant will appear. Making money for gold is the norm nowadays. It is not surprising that there are Huaxia chefs.
As for Hu Xiaoping and Yao Sifu, they were basically in the Gambia before. Last month, several high-speed assault boats and inshore patrol boats of the inshore patrol and assault detachment under the command of Hu Xiaoping, as well as a bunch of logistics, were directly squeezed into them according to instructions. Set up a 22 transport plane and airlifted it here.
The navy was "downgraded" to become the Lake Army, and it looks comfortable at the moment.
Recently, Burundi, which is diagonally opposite to the north, is making troubles. It is necessary to prevent the Burundian army from coming over from Shanghai to make trouble if it is not clear.
"You said Jiang Hongrong, his kid is doing a good job now, he's all in the big boss's guard, and his income is estimated to be a lot higher than ours."
"Isn't it possible?" Hu Xiaoping was a little surprised. It is said that the Big Boss Guard is a group of supermen. I remember that Jiang Chuzi came from a field army, but he was not a special person familiar with security.
"What's impossible~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The world's first cook can be worse? Besides being a professional bodyguard, he is absolutely unqualified.
As far as the outer guards are concerned, they will be able to fight. He is good at this.
By the way, it's a coincidence that he might arrive in the afternoon, or it might be tomorrow morning. "
When Zhang Zhenjin said this, he thought about it, and then said: "I tell you something, and it is still confidential, but you are all qualified to know.
I was notified that the old Guan of the group was here this morning, and the cook called me in the morning, saying that he and a small team would be sent to protect Mr. Guan.
Even if the specific time is not clear, we can't ask if it is. "
Hu Xiaoping hasn't spoken yet, Harrison said, "Mr. Guan is coming. If possible, I have to treat him to dinner."
What does this say?
Harrison stretched out his left hand and wore an omega seahorse on it.
"Mr. Guan replaced me with a Tianba watch made by China."
