"Victor, I have officially expelled former French President Mitterrand's son Christophe's team in Luanda, which is enough to show my sincerity. So, what I want to know is that Kamega will visit the United States next month , what’s the intention behind it?”
Angola.
Inside the presidential palace in the capital, Luanda.
After the sumptuous luncheon, Angolan President José dos Santos was having a private meeting with Victor Melicis in a luxuriously decorated reception room.
Victor Melicis, who had recommended himself at the time, has gained more and more trust from Simon over the past year. Similarly, because of Melicis’ Angolan nationality, even though he is a standard white man, it is easier to break into the company. Angola's top executives.
Victor Merisis, who was busy at the plantation today, suddenly received a lunch invitation from the President. He had actually anticipated this problem.
Fundamentally, the situation in Africa has not improved in any way because of the war in Rwanda two years ago.
Just talking about inside Angola, the opposition Savimbi armed forces entrenched in southern Angola are still active even though their living space has been reduced to a minimum, and sometimes have some conflicts with government troops. In the east, the relationship between Angola and the Democratic Republic of the Congo has also begun to deteriorate. War may break out.
On the other hand, Angola's economy has been in its lowest state due to years of civil war. Even if Africa is rich in products, there will always be people who are hungry. Once people are hungry, they can do anything.
In short, the Dos Santos regime in Angola is far less stable than some people think.
Victor Melisis leaned on the comfortable leather sofa with a cigar in his hand. After a petite black maid brought the coffee, he exited the room silently like a cat, and then said: "Mr. President, this is actually It is obvious that the United States has decided to overthrow Mobutu of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. In fact, since the collapse of the Soviet Union, this has been an inevitable trend. The United States is now the only superpower in the world. Although it seems that there is a United Nations as a check and balance, this kind of containment The effect is actually very small, and the United Nations is completely powerless to stop whatever the United States wants to do."
Dos Santos's eyes flickered, showing both confirmation and a little worry, and he quickly showed his white teeth to Melisis on the surface, and asked with a smile: "In this case, Victor, what do you think we should do? "
"Oh, Mr. President, I'm just a farmer. Frankly speaking, this is not something I can dictate."
"So, what does Mr. Westeros mean?"
"The boss will definitely pay close attention to this matter, but what are the specifics..." Victor Melisis said here, paused slightly, and did not interest the African head of state too much: "I can only say, Mr. President, If you have any ideas, I can send a message and ask."
"I just said that the team that expelled Mitterrand's son will completely cut off arms transactions with France. This is my attitude," Dos Santos said: "I have also understood one thing in the past two years. Cooperating with Mr. Westeros is definitely a very good choice.”
"Yes," Victor Merisis also smiled: "Because our boss is just a businessman. As long as everyone has the same interests, we can coexist. But France and the like, they just want to continue to colonize Africa. This is absolutely intolerable.”
Melisis's words were both a bit crude and a reminder.
In fact, both sides know it well.
Since establishing relations with the Westeros system and being initially wary, dos Sandos has discovered many benefits. Before 1994, although the United Nations did not impose embargoes and sanctions on Angola, Angola wanted to obtain various material, we have to deal with difficult Western countries.
Just like France, Christophe Mitterrand, the son of former French President Mitterrand, once secretly controlled an arms export route from Eastern Europe to Angola with France as an intermediary. In order to obtain these arms, the Angolan government had to provide confidential information. Trump's son has a lot of interests and has to be restrained by the French government.
After establishing contact with the Westeros system, although it has a relatively cheaper and more convenient arms import channel, in order to avoid constraints and other scruples, the Angolan government still maintains relations with France.
Until the death of Mitterrand at the beginning of this year, the influence of this evergreen figure in French politics disappeared. Coupled with the recent changes in Africa, Dos Santos, who had long observed the Westeros system, completely decided to choose a side. And he was very shrewd in siding with the Westeros system, not the too clear side of the United States, even though Dos Sandos had already visited the United States under the bridge of the Westeros system.
The benefits of doing this are very obvious.
The powerful Westeros system has a very strong influence in the United States. Relying on the Westeros system is actually equivalent to relying on the United States. At the same time, Angola does not need to be too restricted by the U.S. government. Everything is just It needs to be transferred through the Westeros system.
As for Simon Westeros, Dos Santos was actually very wary at first. After all, this young super-rich man overthrew a government in Rwanda.
However, after long-term observation, Dos Santos also gradually discovered the truth behind Westeros's intervention in the Rwandan War. It was not to save the Tutsi refugees who were massacred, but to show the power of the Westeros system. Influence. In the final analysis, when did white people in the West care about the lives and deaths of black people
Discovering this made Dos Santos feel at ease.
Making deals with Western countries may be abandoned at any time, just like the already crumbling Mobutu regime in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. However, by cooperating with the Westeros system, you can get the same benefits as cooperating with the United States without having to cooperate with the United States. The government is too deeply involved, and those politicians are more willing to eat people without spitting out bones than businessmen, and they are ruthless in their rebellion.
In comparison, as long as the Dos Santos family guarantees the interests of the Westeros system in Angola and continues to deepen this interest relationship, then the Westeros system will be the most solid protective umbrella for the Dos Santos family, and unless Simon ·Westeros plans to give up its own industry in Angola, which is obviously not easy for Dos Sandos, and the possibility of a break between the two sides is very small.
Recent news that Rwanda's new President Kamega plans to visit the United States next month has strengthened Dos Santos's thinking.
The two exchanged words in the reception room and chatted for more than an hour. They once again promised to convey Angola's sincerity to their boss as soon as possible. Victor Melisis stood up to leave. Dos Santos also made a full gesture and personally sent Melisis to a Soviet-made Mi-8 helicopter on the tarmac of the presidential residence.
There are almost no four seasons in Africa, only the rainy season and the dry season.
Angola is in the dry season, and this year's drought is obviously more severe.
Victor Mericis left the Angolan capital on a Mi-8 helicopter and overlooked the country along the way. Every industry was depressed and devastated, but his eyes did not waver much.
The distance from the capital, Luanda, to Cuando province, where Mericis is responsible for the plantation, is about 900 kilometers. The cruising speed of the Mi-8 helicopter is only a little over 200 kilometers per hour. During this period, it has to stop for refueling and does not arrive at the plantation until the evening. airspace.
Of course, compared to the land route, this is already a rare speed.
There is currently a team of 120 UFMS soldiers stationed in the plantation, all from Ukraine. They are personally led by another UFMS vice president, Victor Kostalev, who is Simon has been quietly supporting the top UFMS officials who are used to check and balance Krim Derevyanko. However, this executive of the Uyghur private army who is also a former Soviet special forces obviously prefers to go to the front line in person instead of following someone's instructions. What does it mean to play balance in Ukraine
In fact, Viktor Kostalev has no self-consciousness at all, and prefers to be a pure soldier.
Simon also liked this.
Because of his purity, Victor has a strong appeal in the Viktorian private army and has enough military loyalty. This also means that if one day, Simon needs Victor Kostalev to replace him Kerim Derevyanko, the process will be quite smooth.
Although they have reached a tacit understanding with the Savimbi forces entrenched in the south, almost bordering the plantation, due to the prevailing local separatism in African countries, the plantation covering an area of 600 square kilometers far away from Luanda is not peaceful. Compared with Other areas are dilapidated and depressed, and the materially rich plantation area is simply a fat sheep. It is inevitable that it will be coveted and harassed by some local armed forces.
The 120 Uighur private troops couldn't even look at the 600 square kilometers of land.
After receiving Simon's authorization, Victor Kostalev and Victor Melisis gathered a group of supernumerary guards here, numbering as many as 600 people, because they were all local residents of Angola, and there was no clear The establishment, most of the time, requires disguised farmers to work in the plantations, so it did not attract much attention from the authorities.
Dos Santos is certainly not a fool. Although he had maliciously set aside a large plantation for Simon in the area bordering Savimbi's power, he still did not feel relieved and specially set up a government representative team here. It is to assist the construction of the plantation, but in fact it is to monitor.
It's a pity that people are poor and have short ambitions.
The team in charge of surveillance was easily won over by the plantation side and became a 'close partner'. In addition, the sky was high and the emperor was far away, so Luanda would not get any useful information at all.
Compared to the desolation of other areas, the scenery immediately changed when the helicopter entered the sky above the plantation.
In addition to the coffee trees that have been planted, other areas that have not had time to be developed have not been abandoned. Instead, agricultural crops such as corn and wheat have been planted. Looking at the vitality on the ground from the air, Victor Merisis finally showed his expression. Some softness.
This is the scene in my memory.
The rich Africa should be like this, instead of being ruined like a wilderness by a group of black monkeys.
The helicopter landed at the Weijia Private Army Station in the plantation. The sun was already setting. Another Victor happened to be returning from patrol with his team. The two Victors who got along well hugged each other and entered the barracks together.
Although it is said to be a barracks, the conditions are actually very good, and even air conditioning equipment is installed.
Simon's daily treatment of the Wei family's private army is completely comparable to the level of the US military, or even higher. As long as these people work for him, the generous conditions they should be given will not be less. Therefore, although the management of the Wei family's private army is very harsh, But it's quite stable internally.
Except for several vacations during this period, Victor Kostalev has stayed in Angola for more than a year. As an outstanding soldier, Victor also has a very strong learning ability. In addition to English and French, Victor Kostalev can also learn very well at this time. Conversate with Victor Mericis skillfully in Portuguese.
"So, how was the meeting today?"
As soon as the two sat down in the living room of the barracks, Viktor Kostalev asked.
Speaking of which, Victor Kostalev's potential authority level in Angola is higher than that of Melisis. However, Simon attaches great importance to maintaining the independence of the Wei Family Private Army and does not allow the Wei Family Private Army unless authorized. The higher-ups had unauthorized contact with the local government, and Viktor Kostalev implemented this clause very faithfully.
Similarly, there are people in Angola who are potentially higher-level than Kostalev, such as those who specialize in liaising with the Angolan government for arms transactions, or the management of some other companies. However, those people are responsible for the business Maybe it's bigger, but they can't contact Simon directly. Especially when it comes to arms transactions and the like, Simon must of course remain firmly in the dark.
All in all, the Westeros system is now extremely intricate.
Victor Melisis drank a bottle of pure water that he had just taken out of the refrigerator, feeling the cool breeze of the air conditioner in the room, and said: "Dos Santos expelled the team of former French President Mitterrand's son and severed ties with him. France’s arms deal.”
After hearing this, Victor Kostalev smiled and said: "Some time ago, the boss had a conflict with the French government. Dos Santos came to the meeting to choose an opportunity to express his sincerity."
After all, he is from Ukraine, so Kostalev can still get some sensitive information related to Ukraine. The French government has been in Ukraine in the past two years, which directly annoyed his boss. Speaking of which, this is partly due to the fact that the French arms trade chain in Angola was occupied by the Westeros system.
Many disputes boil down to interests.
Melisis also smiled and said: "Dos Santos is actually scared. These African warlords know very well that if Western countries want to watch them, no one can escape. Moreover, they don't have many people who can play both sides. Since France's influence in Africa continues to weaken and the United States has become the only superpower in the world, there is no need to think too much about which side to join. Compared with dealing directly with the U.S. government, cooperating with our boss is undoubtedly the most effective reliable."
Viktor Kostalev nodded.
There are two Victors, but whether it is Kostalev or Melisis, even though Simon still has not publicly promoted a certain 'Westerosian' concept, because the influence of the Westeros system is becoming stronger and stronger, the two subconsciously Already consider themselves a 'Westerosian'.
After all, one's former motherland collapsed, their faith collapsed, and they had completely lost their goals before. One had a deep estrangement and even hatred for the country they lived in. When the Westeros system provided them with a platform, the two People naturally develop a sense of belonging.
Most people in this world need a place of peace of mind after all.
