King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer

No one expected that the Israelis' actions in Syria were always under Joe's control...

The southeast side of the safe zone borders Iraq, where a humanitarian trade route supports tens of thousands of people, with many civilians in the key northern Iraqi city of Mosul proudly hanging the Lion Flag of P·B at their doorsteps...

The northeast of the safe zone is Kurdish Democratic Forces' territory, while the southwestern area, once a core ISIS stronghold, has now become the focus of contention between the Syrian Government Forces and Kurdish Democratic Forces.

The French are stationed in this region, ostensibly serving as a peacekeeping force, but in reality, they are suppressed by mutual tacit agreements between the two sides, unable to make any moves.

Whenever they want to take action, the government forces and democratic forces would initiate grand-scale 'battles'...

The always overlooked 'Jackal,' using the military base initially gifted to Joe by the Pentagon, assembled a force primarily composed of retired Russian soldiers, forming a protective military triangle with the French and the safe zone...

The northern region of Syria seems chaotic, yet, in fact, there's an odd sense of tacit understanding among the different forces here.

The government forces and democratic forces overtly appear as enemies, but secretly they cooperate through oilfield development.

The French, along with American and Turkish troops stationed in Syria, should be allies, yet they constantly hinder each other.

Iranian militias are allies with Syria, but they don't quite get along with Russian troops stationed there.

Mixed and chaotic, the warlords in this region engage in battle to seize territory, with complex relations that are hard to untangle without deep understanding of the area...

However, beyond these tangled relationships, the safe zone serves as a convergence point for most interests.

As the entrance to the humanitarian route, the safe zone has essentially become the source of supplies for much of northern Syria.

Joe brokered a relationship between the Syrian government and Kurdish Democratic Forces, restarting oilfield production in the north and thus controlling their money flow, granting the safe zone a highly advantageous position.

Major forces hope to amass wealth by leveraging the safe zone for transactions, while smaller forces must look up to the safe zone even for basic purchases like underwear.

The Israelis rashly rushing in trying to arm and rescue prisoners equates to dipping a hand into boiling oil...

The two teams that penetrated the safe zone after fighter jets attacked unmanned airships were not actually Israelis but P·B's special forces.

They, along with the Lion Squad responsible for guarding, held a high-intensity drill using exercise munitions for over three hours, then protected those excited prisoners until they escaped all the way to the real Israeli encampment...

Those Israeli special forces and Mossad field operatives who ventured deep into Syria barely managed to acquire two helicopters and six Hail Rocket Launchers, prepared for a long time, only to be wiped clean by Sanderson before they could use them.

Until the majority were casualties, even those who surrendered thought the soldiers assisting prisoners to escape to them were reinforcements sent by the higher-ups...

Those individuals, despite revealing the camp's location, bravely 'died' to protect everyone in the end...

Even though they were more of a hindrance, those surrendered Israeli special forces still felt sorrow for them.

The number of prisoners held by the safe zone jumped from the initial number of 14 to over twenty.

Joe's inherently aggressive nature means he never takes a passive stance; he's the type who retaliates with a punch if you glare at him...

The stronger the enemy, the tougher Joe's responses will be.

No matter your planned timing for action, I'm following my own schedule—if you don't cooperate, I'll force you to cooperate!

Hiding in a quiet room, Joe spread videos of the battle online, then angrily cursed at the Israelis and Russians while holding up a few photos...

After the fighter jet that attacked the unmanned airship was shot down, the wreckage fell into Russian hands...

These guys refused to hand over the fighter jet wreckage, combined with the suspicious origins of those Hail Rocket Launchers and helicopters, giving Joe reason to believe the Russians' involvement was not entirely innocent.

Even without concrete evidence, it didn't stop Joe from exposing the Russians to the media, subjecting them to public condemnation.

No matter if you're unjustly accused, if you don't cooperate with me, you're a suspect!

By making the Russians targets, a natural ally is found in international politics...

Joe aims to build momentum and create a pretext for UN intervention.

With Aljin as a mediator 'pulling strings,' the UN's response this time was unexpectedly swift...

When media opinion overwhelmingly supported P·B in condemning Israel, a UN Secretariat spokesperson announced sending a French-led investigative team to the safe zone to conduct a thorough investigation of the incident...

Simultaneously, the spokesperson warned Israel with unprecedented severity, advising them against targeting the safe zone, and stated the captured soldiers must be handed over to the Syrian government after the investigation, with the UN guaranteeing their rights within the legal framework.

Most importantly, the UN representative reiterated the nature of the safe zone and P·B's status, emphasizing with great firmness that any attacks on the safe zone violate the law.

This series of blows plunged Israel into a significant crisis...

Problems within emerged first, as a group of politicians closely aligned with Europe and America's political correctness began questioning the Ruling Party by exploiting the situation.

The French-led investigation of the safe zone became a political tool used by Israeli politicians domestically to attack the Ruling Party.

The renowned Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu faced an extremely severe challenge!

He must first handle pressure from the French allies—the incident in Djibouti hasn't been fully resolved yet...

Secondly, he had to deal with the domestic political turmoil caused by the media storm ignited by the security zone.

This is the impact of international politics on national politics!

Boss Joe leveraged enormous strength, pulling the French in to apply extreme pressure on Israel.

It doesn't matter if they can't destroy you, if you don't provide sufficient compensation, this matter will never end...

In fact, Boss Joe didn't want to fight Israel to the death, but he had no choice...

However, his collaboration with the GCC and current intervention in Yemen have already touched on the core interests of Israeli extremists.

Both are skilled players on the international political chessboard, but the conflict of positions and interests on the Middle East issue has made it completely impossible for them to communicate and cooperate.

Unless Boss Joe abandons cooperation with the Middle Eastern tycoons, there is absolutely no room for maneuver between P.B and Israel.

Initially, everyone maintained restraint, but now, due to the extremists' attack on the security zone, the conflict has been publicized...

At this time, Israeli extremists want to strike and weaken P.B, and Yemen is their only entry point.

Furthermore, the so-called 'Laboratory' led by Muto has caught the attention of the Rawi family, and several giants of the Edward Foundation have stepped in from different directions, soon causing significant changes in the Yemeni war situation.

............

Boss Joe's strategic goals were achieved, although Soleimani in Mosul, Iraq, couldn't see through the purpose of Boss Joe's series of actions, he truly witnessed Boss Joe's superior skills!

Without any strenuous effort, Boss Joe, relying on a solid political foundation, swiftly and completely cleared the Israelis out of the Syrian battlefield.

The impacts caused by this political maneuver from thousands of miles away are a series of...

Boss Joe used Israel as a target, surprisingly easing the relationship between the opposition and the government forces within Syria, and even compressing Turkey's strategic space in Syria.

With the precedent of the Israelis, Turkey didn't dare to recklessly send fighter jets into Syria for bombing!

The experiences of the Iranian militias gained some sympathy from the international community, allowing them to gain some local recognition in Iraq and Syria, while also becoming a bargaining chip for the Iranian government in negotiations with America...

Your mad dogs attack me recklessly, I give you face by not blowing the matter out of proportion, but you must give me something in return.

The current Iranian government hopes to ease tensions with America through the Iran nuclear deal, and even align with American policies.

However, this is completely unacceptable to a hardliner like Soleimani!

This legendary general meditated in a dimly lit room for a long time, and finally, he looked at his assistant who was as still as a statue and said, "Inform our people to launch a probing attack on the Golan Heights.

That is Israel's strategic strongpoint, and as long as they retaliate, that Doctor President will know whom to align with..."

In faraway America, Aaron looked at the records in his hand, sighed, and then picked up the phone...

"Darling, activate the Mediterranean smuggling routes, I will coordinate a sea passage to ensure the smooth delivery of arms supplies to Yemen."

"........."

"Don't worry about anything else, that bastard Jackal always manages to get the most crucial things amidst the chaos!"

"........."

Aaron did not respond to his wife's questions from Italy, he stood up with difficulty, took a few steps, looked at a map hanging on the wall, and touched the position of Bossosa in Somalia, muttering to himself, "Why do those people still think this guy is a mercenary?

He is actually the Lion King of Africa!"

............

A week later, Joe Ga accompanied Aljin to inspect the construction progress of the humanitarian materials transit center and then pulled him aside to a quiet place for a chat...

"What? You want to include Somalia in the humanitarian aid scope?

Why?"

Joe Ga looked at Aljin's shocked expression and said with a smile, "Because the Somali Federal Republic has approached the African Union and extended an invitation to P.B...

Mr. Aljin, Yemen currently needs a massive influx of external resources to sustain its people, but we all know long-term gratuitous aid is unrealistic.

I plan to send people to Bossosa, to establish a maritime trade route connecting Bossosa and Mukalla in the Gulf of Aden.

I want to use the humanitarian corridor in my hand to unlock the export potential of these two troubled regions, enabling them to support themselves."

Aljin looked at Joe Ga as if he were a deity, incredulously saying, "Jackal, doing this requires an astronomical amount of preliminary investment, and how do you plan to absorb their export products?"

Joe Ga spread his hands, saying, "My humanitarian corridor has a long route, I can always find a buyer for their products!"

Aljin looked at Joe Ga in astonishment, finally understanding why Boss Joe had to drag him into this game...
