Chapter 984 The enemy can go, and so can I (Second update, please subscribe)
"...In the past eight months, the company has provided defense consulting services to Yemen through "Black Knight Company" , its air personnel and some ground staff are basically employees of the Black Knights, and the artillery and tank defense advisers directly enter the battalion level..."
In the study room of the official residence, Berlin reported one by one on the Middle East Regional readiness. This is the largest mission carried out by "Hydra" since its establishment, not only involving hundreds of agents, but also involving more than a dozen countries.
“Although we are now implementing plans in three internal and external directions at the same time, the Yemeni side, as the only official force, will be responsible for destroying the main force of the Saudi army. According to the analysis of Black Knight Company, after eight months After training, the Yemeni army has basically become capable of fighting a war.”
Berlin’s wording is very clever - capable of fighting a war with Saudi Arabia, but that’s it, after all. , not to mention bullets, even a piece of soap needs to be imported, and there is no sustained combat capability at all.
"Yes, very good."
While nodding, Li Yian looked at Berlin's report. Although the plan has not yet entered the final implementation stage, as the initiator, he is still looking forward to the implementation of the plan.
“Is there any problem with funding?”
“There is no problem with funding at present. Aramco and Nanyang Petroleum Company have provided a total of US$38 million in funding. In terms of funding, , it is still abundant. And they have promised to provide a loan of no less than 20 million US dollars to the Yemeni government if the operation begins. "
To put it bluntly, war is about money.
As long as you have enough funds, nothing is a problem.
Li Yian nodded and said:
"Since there is no problem with funding and there is no problem with personnel training, can we start taking action now?"
"Yes. , Your Excellency, but the time is not yet ripe. The personnel we have sent to Saudi Arabia are currently in contact with all parties. We must wait until all parties are ready before we start taking action."
Pointed. Nodding, Li Yian said.
"Well, this is your expertise. You can implement it in detail. I'm just asking casually."
I know that professional matters should be left to professionals. A layman must not command the expert Li Yi'an. He changed the topic and asked about some matters about Europe, especially Hungary.
Although it is very far away, we have to pay attention to it. After all, in the next big events, the Hungarian incident is an event that cannot be ignored, and the "Suez Crisis" also happened at the same time. These things They all happened in the last few months of this year, and they are more or less related.
“…Currently in Eastern Europe, the ideological trend against the Soviet model and Soviet control has always existed, especially in Poland and Hungary. After the death of Steel, driven by the new leaders of the Soviet Union, the Soviet Union’s Eastern European countries made a series of adjustments in their domestic and foreign policies. In Hungary, Nagy Imre, then Chairman of the Council of Ministers, implemented the "New Approach", although it took 22 months to implement the "New Approach" due to the intervention of the Soviet Union. It was forced to discontinue. However, its ideas of breaking away from the Soviet model and opposing Soviet control still resonated with many people. After the "New Policy" was discontinued, Hungary returned to the old policy, and the domestic political and economic situation worsened... But the current situation remains. Under the control of the authorities.”
As for Berlin’s analysis, Li Yi’an didn’t say anything, but just asked:
"Do we have an intelligence station in Hungary?"
"Of course,"
Berlin said with a smile.
“At that time, Hungary was also a member of the Axis Powers, and its “Arrow Cross” organization had a hidden line from the Imperial Security Bureau. After the Soviet Union occupied Hungary, some members of the organization transformed and became members under the new regime. The secret police Hungarian National Security Force, well, we still have some people on the ground, and we have already made contact with them.”
In fact, this is the biggest advantage of “Hydra” – in both the Eastern and Western worlds. There are hidden lines buried, and there are Hydra people even in South American countries, which means they are slightly behind in Asia. A considerable part of the reason why Nanyang has been able to achieve great results in the intelligence field is due to "Hydra". After all, it directly took over the overseas intelligence network that Sandoko had been running for decades, and this also allowed secret intelligence The Secret Intelligence Service has established a reputation in the intelligence field, and has extensive intelligence cooperation with the CIA and MI6 of the United States. This cooperation is based on mutual benefit. If the Secret Intelligence Service does not provide them with information, How could the other party share the information with them?
"For now, our penetration into Hungary far exceeds that of the United States. A few years ago, the CIA established a secret intelligence network in Hungary. However, as soon as those intelligence personnel entered Hungary, they were arrested by the national security forces." Seeing the infiltration of Americans, Berlin said with a trace of sarcasm on his lips.
“They think that the Iron Curtain countries are like other countries. They can infiltrate as long as they drop a few agents.”
“This is the difference between countries. When dealing with those countries, we absolutely cannot treat them with common sense. We must realize that they are completely different from us."
Li Yi An stood up from the desk and paced around the office. He stood in front of the window, staring at the blue sky in the distance. There were only a few sparse clouds in the clear sky, and occasionally a few birds flew across the sky.
The world is so peaceful, but who would have thought that just over a month later, crises would occur one after another around the world?
Crisis...Danger is full of opportunities!
Can Nanyang seize this opportunity?
After turning around, Li Yian looked at the head of Nanyang's secret intelligence in front of him. "Hydra" is the other side of the Secret Intelligence Agency.
Smoking a few puffs of cigars in succession, and then sitting at the table, Li Yian put the remaining cigars in the ashtray, nodded towards the file, and thought for a while before asking:
"If...I mean, if, there is a drastic change in Hungary in the future, I mean when there is internal turmoil or even an armed uprising, can we do something locally?"
Hungary events, regardless of the From any role, it is a very important thing. If something can be done, it will only benefit Nanyang without any harm. For Li Yi'an, who wanted to play a role in the "Suez Canal Crisis" and seek benefits, he decided to make good use of the Hungarian incident to achieve an ulterior purpose. Therefore, some things must be planned in advance.
“Armed uprising?”
Almost subconsciously, Berlin said.
“This is impossible, Your Excellency, Hungary is not another country. Before this happens, they will use tanks and machine guns to eliminate the signs of this. If the Hungarians do not cooperate, the Soviets will too. Do it for them.”
Berlin still knows the Russians very well, and he has not even forgotten what happened in Germany a few years ago.
“Three years ago in Berlin, what did the Russians do when faced with workers protesting against forced extension of working hours? They sent thousands of tanks and armor into Berlin, and then the Russians used machine guns When they shoot those people, they are basically carrying out a massacre. Your Excellency, the Russians have no scruples in this regard," Berlin reminded, making Li Yian nodded slightly.
"Yes, the Russians have no scruples. If they can't solve the problem, then they will solve the person who asked the question. The Russians are still very good at this kind of thing, but..."
After a pause, Li Yian’s lips raised slightly,
"When something happened at that time, even if the Russians finally solved the problem, it proved from another perspective that the Soviet Union had lost control of certain countries. What we need is to amplify the situation at the appropriate time. This loss of control has even turned this out-of-control situation into a war, or at least an armed conflict."
Looking back at Berlin, Li Yi'an raised the corner of his mouth and said:
"As I said before, the Russians can use infiltration to impose war on us and destroy our good situation, then we can also use their methods to control them... Well , as the old saying in Tangshan goes - if Kou can go, I can go too! We can't just wait at home, please come to the door."
When he said this, Li Yi'an's eyes were firm. , listen - the war horn has sounded!
