King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer

They were the diehards who would never give up, only by taking them all out could Tubruq's security pressure be reduced to the lowest. With those guys dead, terrorists from other places would be at a loss even if they wanted to retaliate because they are not familiar with the area. Moreover, I feel with P·B's style of repaying tenfold, as long as we win, other terrorists won't come." Upon hearing this, Joe Ga said with satisfaction, "You mean the remaining terrorists are all hard-liners, and they won't retreat until they're completely out of ammunition and supplies, right?" 'Gunfire' spread his hands and said, "Based on my understanding of these people, that should be the case! These fanatics have remote commanders behind them; judging from their previous behavior, these guys must have been ordered to hold up P·B and turn Tubruq into a quagmire. The greater the impact on the lives of the locals, the greater the terrorists' influence here." As he spoke, 'Gunfire' glanced at Nis, whose face was as grim as the deep water, and he said gravely, "Over the past month, P·B has invested a huge amount of resources. I don't know exactly how much, but that level of precision bombing is very expensive. To my knowledge, no company can sustain this level of expenditure for long, and the situation in Tubruq will eventually be reversed. I believe that's exactly what they are betting on!" Joe Ga nodded after listening and then, looking at a bunch of serious 'strongmen,' said with a smile, "Let me summarize, the best way to completely take Tubruq is to kill those terrorists, but the current disadvantage for us is that we can't find them. I'm right, aren't I?" The captain of the English SAS 'Knight' raised his hand and said, "Sir, Tubruq used to be a city that could accommodate 800,000 people. It's too large, and without the help of informants, it's very difficult to get a hold of them. If we want to launch an offensive, we need to use a large number of reconnaissance drones, otherwise, we can only passively take hits before we can counterattack. So, our best course of action is to establish an intelligence network. Military intelligence should be able to provide some support on this." After hearing this, Joe Ga glanced at the smug-looking cripple and decisively shook his head, "I don't need it. Right now, Byrdi already has a team of CIA agents, but I haven't seen any progress so far. If the CIA can't do a good job, I guess military intelligence is of the same level." Joe Ga looked at Knight's hesitant expression and said with a smile, "Don't worry. Our current obstacle is solely that there are still civilians in Tubruq, so those terrorists can find supplies and cover... In China, there's a saying called 'draining the pond to get the fish.' If we temporarily can't deal with those terrorists, can't we do something about the civilians?" The moment Joe Ga's words were spoken, the expressions of everyone in the room changed... The French observer was the first to stand up, speaking anxiously, "Hu Lang, you can't be reckless. The previous bombings have already had a significant impact. If you deliberately create a humanitarian disaster, the consequences would be unimaginable." Joe Ga listened and said with a laugh, "You're worried I'll harm civilians?" While speaking, Joe Ga looked at the group of somber individuals and pointed in the direction of the Mediterranean, saying, "Right now, there are several cargo ships floating at sea, all loaded with supplies. They're what I secured in advance by pledging oil output and prepared for the locals to help them restore a peaceful life. Do you think I would deliberately hurt them? Fellows, I don't know what you think, but P·B's people pursue not just money, but also honor! Pure, beautiful, intense, memorable 'Soldier's Honor' for a lifetime. I hope that in the future, when everyone mentions P·B, they will remember that we were guardians of a good life, not war dogs." Seeing the people of P·B instinctively straighten their spines, 'Hellhound' from SEAL Team Six said with a strange expression, "Sir, what exactly do you plan to do?" Joe Ga rotated his neck, grinning and said, "Starting from tomorrow, we'll establish an evacuation route within the city of Tubruq, shut down all infrastructure inside the city, and cut off all water sources. Without water, they'll have to leave their homes. We'll provide them with water and luggage so they can settle down in Byrdi. The reluctance of the common people to leave is largely because they can't give up their homes. We provide them with food, drinking water, medical services, and protection, letting them stay in Byrdi for a while, or in a refugee camp. As long as they are willing to cooperate, we will provide them with sufficient basic supplies to restart their lives after the war is over. These were meant to go to them anyway, so it's not bad to use them as a bargaining chip now!" As he spoke, Joe Ga looked at the group of dumbfounded individuals and snarled, "Terrorists are like fish swimming in murky water; now I'm going to drain their water... I want to see how long these terrorists can last!" 'Hellhound' incredulously looked at Joe Ga and said, "Sir, are you prepared to clear out an entire city just to deal with a few hundred terrorists?" After hearing this, Joe Ga said with a smile, "If doing so can reduce our casualties, then why not? Between money and lives, I would definitely choose lives..." Saying this, Joe Ga put his arm around Nis' shoulder and spoke to the crowd, "P·B came here because Nis wanted to help her compatriots. If we can reduce some casualties just by spending money, why not do it? As long as the locals cooperate, I'll not only provide them with living materials, I'll also give them mobile phones, household appliances... Once the Chinese companies help restore the operation of the local base stations, I'll give them digital identification cards... Provide them with loans for work resumption and production recovery... Provide schools for their children... Provide them with hospitals and medical care... Provide them with job opportunities... Provide them with a stable life... As long as they are willing to carry their phones everywhere and obey a short-term grid management approach, give me one year, and I can fully rebuild their lives! Tell me, will they agree?" The French and English observers looked at each other in disbelief and then incredulously said, "The revenue from Tubruq doesn't support such expenditure; aren't you interested in making money?" Joe Ga gave a contemptuous look at the 'inexperienced' French and English guys, tilted his head, and kissed Nis on the forehead, then said domineeringly, "With your wisdom, it's hard for me to explain!"
