The arms business is both exciting and less dangerous than mercenaries. It is indeed suitable for people like them. Besides, Xu Ziling also has selfish intentions: in addition to opening up arms channels for himself, it can also solve the port problem to a certain extent. existential trouble.

However, with the abundance of money in their hands, Smith and the others retreated a lot from being a mercenary. As a result, it was natural that they hit it off. Xu Ziling asked them to guarantee the safety of the port. Smith agreed without thinking.

Site No. [-] was less than [-] kilometers away from the northern border of Nitan, and about [-] kilometer away from the expressway. In less than two hours, Xu Ziling and the others got off the expressway and arrived at their destination through a section of bumpy gravel road.

There are only a few scattered villages in the area of ​​more than ten kilometers around here, and there are no cities and towns. There are some oil palms planted on the ground, which must have been planted by the villagers in the villages I saw.

A few people looked at it, and thought it was pretty good here, not to mention the convenient transportation, not many people around, and flat terrain, which would save a lot of pre-construction and save a lot of money—at least not like that kind of place. In densely populated places, there is not much demolition work to be done.

It is located at the northern entrance of the Mosang Strait, and the port is built here, so it is considered to have held this throat position. It must have extraordinary significance in the military sense. Although it is good, I have not seen other places with my own eyes. The meeting immediately made a decision, stood by the beach and looked around, and asked the lion who came out with him to scan the topographic map of the seabed in the surrounding sea area. After chatting for a while, several people got in the car and left, heading south to the No. 2 position.

After more than an hour, I came to position No. 2. I also checked and left. At noon, I ate a local-style Chinese meal in a town and continued to No. 3 and No. 4. It took a while. In the afternoon, I looked at these two places again, and rushed back to Felix in the evening.

Xu Ziling sat in the living room of his house after eating the bento he brought back when passing through the city, looking at the scanned pictures of today's scans on the computer.

Each of the four places has its own advantages. Among them, the distance between No. [-] and No. [-] is only [-] kilometers, but as far as the deep water channel is concerned, they are all suitable for building ports. Xu Ziling also had a hard time choosing. Also come up with ideas.

Remembering that Smith and the others were all in the Navy, I wonder if I can make some suggestions, so let them also take a look.

Xu Ziling did not mention the specific meaning of the establishment of the port in detail, but Smith and the others also know the current situation of Nitan, and of course they understand that this matter is not an ordinary commercial investment. Although they are in the Navy, they are in the Marine Corps. I'm really not very familiar with the port when carrying out the task. Besides, such a thing is not that simple, and they don't have much to say. Several people looked at it, and they didn't say anything useful.

"I think the No. [-] location is okay. There aren't many people around. It's convenient to deploy defensive weapons, and it's not close to the south, so it's less dangerous." After watching for a while, Yang Kaiming put forward his opinion.

Xu Ziling understood what he meant: the country controlled by the Americans is the southern neighbor of Nitan, and if it really wants to fight, it will not come here all at once, and the nearest towns around here are dozens of kilometers away. It is no problem to arrange dozens of "patriots" here.

Among the four places, only the one around the first place is indeed less populated, and the towns established can indeed make those who want to use force afraid of civilian casualties and avoid using them. However, Xu Ziling tends to build in spacious places.

That is to say, you should pay attention to the issue of civilian casualties when fighting, but if there is a real fight, who will care about this? I guess bombers, cruise missiles and so on will all be poured on your head, the port On the edge of the city that is really to be built, it is difficult to deploy defensive weapons, not to mention the large number of people, and security issues are also difficult to guarantee.

"I also think it's a good place. It's not far from the highway, and it's just at the northern entrance of the Mosang Strait." Li Cheng also nodded, expressing his approval of Yang Kaiming's suggestion.

"It seems that your views are the same as mine." Xu Ziling said, "I also think this is the most suitable place, but I have to ask the higher authorities first. After all, we only have half of the shares." Speaking of this, he couldn't help laughing .

"Ha ha……"

Yang Kaiming and Li Cheng naturally knew the meaning of this half of the shares, and they also laughed, but the Smiths next to them were a little confused, and didn't understand what they were laughing at.

Early the next morning, domestic time was almost noon. The first thing Xu Ziling did when he got up was to contact General Fan Yi and send him several plans and the images they scanned yesterday.

"Okay, I'll let the professionals study it, and wait for the news." Xu Ziling expressed his suggestion on the phone. After hearing this, Fan Yi didn't express his opinion, only said to let him wait for the news, and then hung up the phone.

The construction of the port will not officially start until after the delivery of the helicopter. This time, Xu Ziling and the others came here to see a few places with their own eyes and get further scanned images. Other than that, there is nothing important. As for the result, The same is true for waiting in the country, so they plan to stay for a day or two before returning home.

But it was Yang Kaiming who mentioned the iron ore, saying that Haitian had sent staff to contact the people in Nitan, and Xu Ziling wondered if he should check the detailed storage of the iron ore.

"It's been fine for the past two days, why don't we go over and see how big the reserves are?"

The iron mine is located in the northwest of Nitan, close to the inland area. Since the whole country is narrow from east to west and long from north to south, and the capital Felix is ​​also in the north, it is not very far from the iron mine.

"Okay, it's only this far anyway, let's go and have a look, with a detailed scan, at least there is still a little money left over for the detection fee."

Yang Kaiming said with a smile.

"Okay, let's go!"

A few people decided to take a look. Smith looked at the map and felt that the road to this place was not very easy, so he asked a few people if they wanted to get a helicopter.

"No need!" After hearing this, Xu Ziling was the first to refuse immediately. He remembered what happened to the Americans in Somalia, Africa: Several "Black Hawks" were shot down by local militants with rocket launchers. , There are too many rocket launchers, not "Fierce Dragon", he dare not sit in other helicopters, "I dare not sit in the "Apache" if you get me, who knows if this place will come from Where there are a few rockets coming out, we'd better drive there."

Although the facts are not as scary as he said, there is indeed such a phenomenon in Africa. If some radical organization is upset seeing you flying in the sky, it is not impossible to launch a few rockets at you. Kilometers, no matter how bad the road conditions are, Renren will pass by, there is no need to take that risk.

"Well, good to drive!"

"Let's drive!"

Naturally, Yang Kaiming and Li Cheng also knew this truth. They were not people who only enjoyed themselves, and taking a helicopter was not an enjoyment, it was just a little faster, so they also rejected Smith's kindness and agreed to drive there.

Smith also didn't think much about it. When he was on a mission before, in order to hurry, he dared to run to the mission site in a helicopter even in the face of a hail of bullets. He never thought that they were not in a hurry at all. He shrugged his shoulders, then smiled, and went to prepare the necessary equipment such as water, food, and weapons.

It takes more than 600 kilometers to go to the iron mine, but going to the west is from the plain to the plateau and then to the mountains, and it is far away from the highway. Preparation is definitely required.

Fortunately, Smith and the others are very used to living outside. Every time they go to a new place, they will prepare some outdoor things, such as tents. When he bought the house, he prepared these. After a while, in With the help of several other team members, everything was ready.

Put it in the car and install it, and the few people are ready to go.

Less than an hour after leaving the urban area, a few people arrived at the plateau area. The country roads are completely dirt roads. It seems that no one has ever planned them. When reaching the big pit, the car can only put on the low gear and move forward slowly.

The few people bumped along the way, and from time to time their heads could be put on the roof of the car. Li Cheng smiled and said that this was not much different from being a sedan chair, which aroused the resonance of Xu Ziling and Yang Kaiming.

On the plateau, there are tropical plants everywhere, high and low, facing the sun, but they have a special flavor. They are not in a hurry, so they don’t let Smith drive fast. How uncomfortable I feel.

After walking for a while like this, the road conditions got a little better, and finally it was no longer so bumpy.Looking out the window, Xu Ziling found some animals appeared under the trees and in the grass, but they were not close to their car, so they couldn't see them clearly, but from a distance, there were lions, leopards, elephants, Giraffes are large animals, but the small ones are too far away to be recognized at all.

"Tell me, is this lion meat delicious?"

Li Cheng, who was behind, naturally saw the animals wandering in the distance, so he suddenly said this.

"eat?"

Several people were startled by his idea.

Xu Ziling recalled the past few times he went to the Sword Base. Every night, he liked to ask people to go to the Gobi Desert to hunt rabbits, and then roast them to eat. He thought: Is this the sequelae of eating too many rabbits?Want to eat meat when you see it?

The people in the car were merciless when they killed people. Of course, not many of them had the idea of ​​protecting animals from hunting. After hearing what he said, they also had the same doubts: I don’t know if lion meat is edible.
