King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer

The most important thing about exporting influence is proving the ability to protect those allies, so one can break down obstacles and reshuffle the global structure.

The difficulty of this is akin to walking a tightrope with a mountain on your back!

In the past, Boss Qiao made efforts, which to some extent was a kind of implicit allegiance...

Before the situation was fully exposed, before anyone had reacted, he established trade channels belonging to P·B.

In Central Africa, Congo, Iraq, and Liberia, Boss Qiao established immense influence...

Although these places may not play a crucial role in future upheavals, even if it's just to ease the export pressure at home and reduce some unemployment, it's beneficial.

Claverley of England once told Boss Qiao that when P·B reaches a certain scale, the enemies become entirely different.

Boss Qiao knew at that time that it would be unrealistic to play both sides against the middle in such a condition!

So he already began to adjust his strategy by roping in people from the United Nations, to endorse critical humanitarian corridors, while establishing the legitimacy of trade routes.

Currently, Central Africa and Congo are stable, and they are developing excellently.

The Iraq and Syria frontline faces challenges from Israel, but there's room for negotiation there, because Boss Qiao has the support of a group of big Iraqi corrupt officials and Iranian Suleimani's big head in front.

The biggest problem now lies in Liberia, as it is the political focal point envisaged by Turkey...

The issue of Crete is just the beginning, Liberia is the key, because once Turkey takes Tubruq, it can choke a crucial oil export point.

After being tormented by inflation for so many years, Turkey is still energetically biting at others, and there's a reason for it!

Their location is too advantageous!

To the north, it blocks Russia's path to the sea in the Black Sea and controls the world's largest grain and fertilizer exports.

It connects to Iran in the east, and Bulgaria in the west, holding a land corridor from the Middle East to Europe.

Now, on one hand, they move south to gnaw off a piece of territory in Syria, and on the other, they plant a stake in Liberia.

While expanding religious influence to rope in Arab brothers, they strongly demand to join the EU family...

Anyway, it switches between human and monster, pesters and twists, just to keep neighboring countries under its influence.

In this situation, Greece is very unfortunate, as an EU member, it cannot get too close to Russia.

Moreover, Greece is responsible for suppressing Turkey as Greek islands encircle the western part of Turkey, which is no joke.

But this will also subject Greece to great pressure on military spending in this situation!

The early Greek Hydra-class Destroyer modification project, which Boss Qiao coordinated, was conducted against this background.

It's just that he didn't realize that Greece would face such pressure, nor did he expect Turkey to go to such lengths.

Trying to sabotage Crete's development, Boss Qiao really hadn't thought of that!

Turkey must be trying to dismantle the energy connection between Crete and Tubruq, because once there's a connection, Tubruq's international political status is indirectly recognized, and later attempts to change it would infringe on EU interests.

Every additional stable energy source in Europe decreases Turkey's importance, which is what they must strive for and is the reason they intervened early in the Libyan civil war.

But the Libyan Interim Government supported by Turkey is too rotten, simply unable to compete with Haftar's national government that Boss Qiao collaborates with.

There is little progress on the Libyan side, so destroying Crete's development became Turkey's only choice, after all, targeting Greece is their political correctness.

Moreover, Boss Qiao schemed Turkey out of four F-16s and two C-130s in Iraq, fueling deep resentment.

This situation forces Boss Qiao to cooperate with France once again!

And he needs to find a way to push France to the front line of suppressing Turkey...

The modification of a few Hydra-class Destroyers may not be enough, and France's strained finances prevent them from speaking loudly, they can only exert pressure within the EU...

How can this work?

Joe Ga thought for a long time, and facing the gaze of several elites, he finally waved his hand and said, "I may need to adjust the current strategy.

Crete is extremely important to me, I need to have a chat with the French..."

In the video, Thompson realized the situation was not looking good. He loosened his bow tie and said to Boss Qiao, "Sir, it's very difficult to push France to the front line of suppressing Turkey. Their rising oil prices have led to the 'Yellow Vest' protests.

The two sides are currently at a stalemate, but we all know France's finances are problematic, they can no longer afford fuel subsidies.

With the French temperament, the protests will soon escalate into unrest.

Their efforts in Yemen are lackluster, and unless Turkey shows more aggression, they probably won't agree to send warships to Greece.

They have no more resources!"

Joe Ga certainly knows where the problem lies. The French have not been doing well in the past two years, partly due to the actions of him and Aaron.

Who could have thought that the situation would change like this now?

But without the French stepping in, neither Greece nor P·B can hold down Turkey, if left to their antics, the investments in Crete will become a bottomless pit.

The humanitarian corridor concept designed by Joe Ga for the European endpoint would no longer exist, and while losing a critical support point for the Jia Liang trade, the influence of that trade network would significantly diminish.

Joe Ga painfully rubbed his cheeks and said, "I need to find a way to convince the French to disengage from Syria.

In the meantime, try to find them some new large orders, so that young crossover guy can catch a breath...

FUCK, even though I knew we would face this situation, why does it have to be now?"

Thompson didn't know where Boss Qiao's confidence came from, but he had faith in his boss's negotiation capabilities...

Seeing his boss's distressed expression, Thompson smiled and said, "Boss, that's how politics is...

P·B has developed to this extent, unless you stay out of Africa, conflict with some countries is inevitable.

You've done well enough!

I personally think there's no need to always treat France as an enemy in Africa.

Since Alstom was dismantled and significant parts of heavy industry were taken by Germany, they've been in decline.

The enormous government expenditures and budget deficits have long burdened them unbearably.

I personally believe there's more to gain from cooperating with France in Africa on the Green Corridor project, rather than excluding them.

I suspect the French are eager to deepen cooperation with P·B in Africa now, as they are having a tough time in the Sahel region..."

Joe Ga looked at Madison and Bayar who nodded in agreement, and then vigorously rubbed his face, nodding and saying, "I never intended to compete with France in West Africa, I just wanted the Green Corridor project to remain pure, without entangling too much politics.

Now it seems impossible!

FUCK, I never thought I'd be the one to loosen the reins on France one day..."
