Chapter 1253 Hunter and Prey (First update, please subscribe)

What is foresight?

Putting down the information in her hands, Princess Aditya was silent for a while, and then said:

“I really didn’t expect that everything was just as he speculated!”

"Yes, Your Highness, the situation in Iraq is developing just as he predicted back then. Qasim's rule is becoming more and more unpopular, and people miss the king's era more and more."

When Nuri Said said these words, he felt mixed emotions in his heart. A few years ago, in the eyes of many Iraqis, the king and he were both pro-Western and "non-Arab". Not only did they launch a military coup, they even killed the king and all members of the royal family.

And his own family was not spared!

But what about now?

Those who once clamored to support the overthrow of the king miss the king again. This may be the biggest irony in the world!

“Now the situation is developing in our favor, but, Your Highness, our strength is not enough to return to Baghdad. We have less than ten thousand troops, and they are scattered in Jordan and Najd. , we need Nanyang..."

Looking at His Highness, Nuri Said said:

“We need Nanyang to send their troops. If they do not intervene, we will have no chance of returning to Baghdad.”

For Said has a very clear understanding of the current situation. After escaping from Baghdad, he has sought support and help from the British and Americans, but no one is willing to give him help, even support. They Not provided either.

For them, the Kingdom of Iraq was a thing of the past, and they quickly recognized the so-called "Republic of Iraq" and became friends of their enemies.

And what about the Kingdom of Iraq?

Abandoned by them...

Only Nanyang still supports them and recognizes the Kingdom of Iraq.

Although the people of Baghdad are now looking forward to the return of the king, returning to Baghdad requires an army that can always defeat Qasim.

But relying solely on their own strength is obviously not enough. Therefore, Nanyang’s help is needed.

“Yes.”

Princess Aditya nodded.

"I will ask him to fulfill his promise. But we also need to prepare ourselves. We also need to expand our strength and prepare to return to Baghdad."

Speak At this time, Princess Aditya looked at her uncle in front of her and said.

“We must return to Baghdad, and we must avenge those people, for our families!”

Yes, we must take revenge.

Said nodded vigorously. He longed for revenge more than anyone else. After all, his wife, his children, and even his grandchildren all died tragically at the hands of thugs a few years ago.

In the past few years, he has been thinking about one word every moment... revenge!

"Yes, Your Highness, we need to be prepared, but no matter what, we must win the support of Nanyang. Your Highness, please convince him."

Said When "persuading", Said glanced at the princess. He knew that the relationship between the princess and that Excellency was very close, and this was the only relationship they could rely on now.

I hope that Your Excellency can send his troops to Iraq for the princess.

"Have you missed me recently?"

Princess Aditya asked sitting on Li Yian's lap, like a koala, not wanting to leave his body.

"What do you think?"

Li Yian stretched out his thumb and index finger, gently twisted her earlobe, and said.

"But, you know, in recent months, things have happened one after another, first the "Berlin Crisis", then Kennedy's visit, plus some other matters..."

Are these excuses?

Of course not, this is a fact!

Li Yian found that he seems to be busier now than in the past. There are many things that need to be dealt with by him. Now Nanyang is at a very critical moment, with economic development on one side and international status on the other. promote.

Economically, Nanyang must begin to prepare for the next step of transfer and upgrading. Although Japan in another world has given the direction, the future of Nanyang is not Japan!

So we can only learn from Japan’s direction.

On the other hand, in terms of international status, although Nanyang's voice in the International Monetary Fund, World Bank and other organizations is second only to the United States, its voice in the United Nations... is only a member of the Security Council. It wants to become a permanent member of the Security Council. There is still a long way to go before becoming a member of the Security Council!

And on the issue of how to become a permanent member of the Security Council, neither Li Yian nor the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has a specific plan. "Well, I know, you always have a lot to do, but... don't be so upset!"

Seeing Li Yian's silence, Adi sat on his lap. Princess Ya shook his neck and comforted softly:

"Actually, you don't have to worry about these things. With the current national status and prosperity of Nanyang, it is good enough. Even if you don't worry so much, Nanyang You will still have a good time.”

"Your understanding is really naive, my princess. Many times in this world, the development of a country is like sailing against the current or retreating if it does not advance! Then what is good enough? If you are just satisfied with the present, in ten years at most, Nanyang will We will be left far behind by other countries. We need to worry about all aspects, including economics, military, and science and technology."

Why should Li Yian worry about this?

It is because he knows the direction of future development and does not want Nanyang to go astray and choose the wrong technology tree.

In the competition between countries in the twentieth century, what is the most terrifying thing?

Just clicked on the wrong technology tree.

This was not only reflected in the Soviet Union. When the transistor era came, the technological tree of miniaturization of electron tubes was clicked, which directly led to the overall backwardness of the Soviet electronic system.

Even in Japan, it is an extremely obvious example. Just like semiconductors, many people blame the decline of Japanese semiconductors on the suppression of the United States. The United States did suppress the Japanese semiconductor industry, but it ignored it. One thing - Japan clicked on the wrong technology tree.

The decline of Japanese semiconductors is essentially because Japan did not seize the PC, that is, the era of personal computers. When Japanese companies were still busy tracking mainframes, they were obsessed with the long-lasting 25-year shelf life DRAM in mainframes. At that time, IBM released the minicomputer IBM-PC in 1981.

This is also a historic turning point for the Japanese semiconductor industry. In the coming era of personal computers, Japanese semiconductor companies have lost their last bargaining chip. When living in the myth of "the most powerful technology" in the mainframe era, when Japanese semiconductor companies occupied 80% of the market in 1987, its decline was inevitable.

Sometimes, the development of the industry is like this. If you are not careful, you will choose the wrong technology tree, and you will fall short!

"Some things really require me to do it myself. Doing it yourself may not necessarily allow you to do things well, but it will definitely allow you to discover things before they get bad, and then retreat or adjust in an emergency. Nanyang's future industrial development Direction, technological development? These are major events involving hundreds of millions of people in Southeast Asia."

As he said this, Li Yian's other hand unconsciously kneaded Aditya's buttocks. It feels first-class!

Unlike other people who think "little wealth will be safe", Li Yian does not think that Nanyang will be safe now if he closes his door and becomes a rich man. The world is cruel, and in this era of the law of the jungle, the fate of a country is very simple - either a hunter or a prey.

However, Princess Aditya, no, it should be said that the entire Arab world does not have a deep understanding of this. Maybe it is just like the one in that photo... She is very stable, starting from 7 AD century to the twenty-first century, it can remain unchanged.

It is extremely rare to be like this!

However, due to Nanyang's interests, or in other words, Nanyang's future oil interests, the future Kingdom of Iraq must be highly secularized.

Although there is no specific plan yet, there are examples of Jordan and Iran that can be followed. Even if there are conservative forces, as long as Nanyang maintains military power there, everything will not be a problem.

After some in-depth communication with Princess Aditya, Li Yian left Aditya's mansion in a car - of course, before leaving, he played with Shia for a while.

While the car was driving to the "Da Ming Palace", Li Yian looked at the information in his hand. These information were all related to Iraq. It can be seen from the information that the situation in Iraq is worse than what he initially thought. The predictions are even more extreme.

“It seems that the time is almost ripe for Iraq!”

Closing the document and putting it aside, Li Yian frowned and tapped his knees with his fingers from time to time. The situation in Iraq is now deteriorating.

"Qasim's rule has become increasingly unpopular. If we send troops to solve the Iraqi problem now, at least we won't have to face a sea of ​​resistance..."

Everything is It went as he originally expected, and now it was almost time to solve the Iraq problem.

As long as the Iraq issue is resolved, Nanyang will lay the strongest wedge there. Coupled with the oil from the Persian Gulf, Nanyang's oil security will basically be guaranteed in the future!

“Well, it’s almost time!”

Nodding, Li Yian said to himself:

"There is another question, the United States..."

Will the United States be happy to see Nanyang come forward to solve the Iraqi problem? Among them, the most important thing is not whether the United States is willing or not. The most important thing is that in the affairs of Iraq, Americans still need to contribute money. After all, post-war reconstruction requires large sums of money.

Since Americans are willing to spend 550 billion US dollars in Vietnam, then spending 5 billion US dollars in Iraq should not be excessive!

But after contacting him, Kennedy was obsessed with giving back to the Soviet Union, and Li Yian laughed.

"It seems that we can only lure them to gain profit!"
