King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer
Chapter 1949: The Grand Finale
A sea of fire like hell, as the camera pulls away, becomes a scar along the coast of the island...
Knight Joe's roar while standing on top of the Milos Armored Vehicle is frozen in time, becoming an emblem!
...
Old Xie from North Industries sat in the viewing room of the Kismayo Warrior Base, muttering a few words at the scene on the screen, then looking somewhat dissatisfied at the endlessly boasting Tong Tong, before turning to look at the smiling Joe Ga sitting beside him...
"Wolf Boss, we can't do this. North Industries funded half of this movie, and in the end, you stand on the Milos, rendering our money wasted..."
Joe Ga glanced sideways at Xie Changgui, disdainfully saying, "Isn't it just a bit of money?
This is called striving for realistic battle scenes, that's just what I did back then...
Or should I add a few words, saying thanks to North Industries for their generous sponsorship, and conveniently leave your business phone number, letting everyone in the world get to know you, Old Xie, so they know to come to you before going to war..."
Xie Changgui smacked his lips, thought for a moment, and finally shut his mouth obediently...
This boss is now a member of the 'Counter-Terrorism Committee' under the United Nations Security Council, and the three groups under the committee's Executive Bureau are all chaired by his buddies...
From the perspective of international law, any recognition of terrorism needs confirmation from the Counter-Terrorism Committee; any terrorist declared unilaterally by any country is not recognized by the United Nations!
And because of the Executive Bureau's existence, this big shot found a new definition for P·B!
Protecting the bottom line of the world!
As long as it's recognized by the United Nations as terrorism and anti-humanitarian, P·B has a natural right to enforce!
What the Peacekeeping Troops can't manage, they do!
What the Peacekeeping Troops can't kill, they kill!
Such a person is no longer just a simple big shot; he has a certain degree of defining power...
Just like Europe and America's legislative congress, this is true high-end power!
However, Boss Qiao did not get tangled up in economic or political interests but stepped out of the whirlpool and funded the entire P·B himself.
The United Nations' meager resources couldn't support P·B, and several of the five big brothers, even if they don't say it, internally feel P·B's existence is a thorn in their flesh; asking for money is out of the question...
But these people don't understand that their refusal to fund objectively gave P·B the right to be financially self-sufficient...
When Jia Liang's trade sails under the P·B banner across third-world countries, when large quantities of cheap goods flow through impoverished regions... 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞
Even if the goods themselves are not profitable, the resource exchange from them inherently has a profit margin due to impoverished countries lacking pricing power...
The cash flow retained in P·B banks can also generate super immense economic benefits...
The international order rules led by Europe and America gave birth to a super monster!
In the Gotland battle, P·B crippled two Littoral Combat Ships and one Amphibious Assault Ship...
Then, for reasons unknown, the two crippled Littoral Combat Ships were towed to France for repair and conversion...
Soon after, the U.S. Navy announced that due to needs, two more Littoral Combat Ships would be retired and sold to P·B...
The U.S. Navy personnel remained tight-lipped about the specific price, but when asked by reporters...
Boss Qiao's evident disdain, plus sending the two core-deficient Littoral Combat Ships to Dalian Shipyard for conversion, broke the defenses of the U.S. Navy.
Now P·B is truly the home of trimarans...
Four Independence-class Littoral Combat Ships plus over twenty Sea Hawk-43s form a powerful coastal channel protection force.
And coastal areas happen to be relatively prosperous economically, and are core areas for issues in those war-torn countries...
The prosperity of coastal regions is based on superior geography, but more importantly, on the resource and manpower transfer from other areas to these regions.
Any prosperity is not without reason; only by deterring the limitless greed of unscrupulous capital and controlling the flow of money can a national security baseline be maintained to some extent!
This 'low-end' maritime power, tacitly allowed by the Security Council to exist, has become a weight to maintain the baseline of traditionally plundered countries...
The 'Executive Bureau' supported by P·B has given the United Nations unprecedented enforcement strength and practical ability!
The title of 'Lion King' is firmly bestowed upon Joe Ga, no longer restricted to Central Africa.
But Xie Changgui from North Industries knows that the worldwide praise did not make this big shot in front of him lose his composure...
P·B has reduced its annual recruitment quota, and its forces in various security zones have also undergone partial downsizing...
The transition from military to civilian directly influences the political operation of those territories by P·B, and when someone raises complaints, those transitioning soldiers became formal employees of the United Nations Trusteeship Committee.
This is sheer political maneuvering, and because his power retracts towards the United Nations, it objectively brings him under the control of the Security Council.
This is equivalent to putting a shackle on oneself!
But a seasoned veteran like Xie Changgui, who has spent a lifetime in the system, knows that Joe Ga's approach elevates P·B's vitality to another level!
