From the Island Owner to the King

Things have changed now.

The Abbots government has no military, only a police force that has been maintained in a few thousand people and scattered all over the country. It is poorly equipped and not very rustic.

How can this police force beat an armed force composed of disbanded army officers, soldiers, and radical youth.

There was precedent for this, when Astid came to power in 1994 and disbanded the army, leaving only 3,000 armed police officers to maintain law and order.

In 2004, in the face of a large-scale armed rebellion by the opposition, the police force was powerless and helpless, unable to clean up the turbulent situation.

Eventually, Astide was ousted from power and took refuge abroad.

History repeats itself.

It can be expected that the Abers government will soon be overthrown without the support of the US military and the international stability mission.

It is very likely that the new government and government will tear up the treaty signed by the Arbers government and government and Chen Rui.

Use force to forcibly reclaim 78.12 square kilometers of land in the eastern part of Tortuga Island that was sold by the Albers government.

Rather than wait until the newly in power government tore up the signed treaty, send troops to forcibly take back the eastern part of Tolga Island.

Until then.

The number of escorts defending the eastern part of Tortuga Island is only 150, plus the coast guard and the police, less than 250.

In the face of the attack of thousands of people, there is nothing to do.

Rather be proactive.

For defense and self-protection, it is imperative to increase the number of escorts.

Chen Rui nodded and asked Burke Harry, "How many people do we need to increase the escort team."

Burke Harry said to Chen Rui, "The Security Committee will take into account Haitian's economic strength, number of troops, combat effectiveness of soldiers, weapons and equipment, etc. The number of escorts will be increased to 1,200, and some heavy defensive weapons will be added. , combat helicopters, only have enough strength to defend against the opponent's attack."

150-man escort.

Every year, Chen Rui needs to spend more than 8 million US dollars in terms of salary, benefits, subsidies, and the cost of purchasing weapons and equipment.

Chen Rui can still afford to spend 8 million US dollars in military expenses every year.

The number of escorts was increased to 1,200.

Calculated, Chen Rui needs to spend more than 60 million US dollars every year, plus the purchase of weapons and equipment, he needs to spend more than 100 million US dollars in military expenses.

This is not a small number.

Chen Rui felt a lot of pressure.

However, the time has come to increase the number of escorts.

Chen Rui will not give up increasing the number of escorts because of the pressure of military spending.

When the army of the sea came to attack, there was nothing to do.

The people who lived on the island were liquidated and killed by the radicals of the sea.

Chen Rui's huge treasure was plundered.

Chen Rui could only rely on the earth escape technique and the water escape technique to escape.

Chen Rui asked Burke Harry, "What is the attitude of the United States about increasing the number of escorts to 1,200."

1200 people is not a small number.

One company of 150 men, 8 companies of 1200 men.

12 people are a battle group, 1200 people are 100 battle groups.

In local areas is a large force.

In particular, Tortuga Island is in the heart of America's back garden, at the crossroads of the Caribbean.

The location is prominent and the location is very prominent.

Increasing the number of escorts to 1,200, the attitude of the United States is very important.

Burke Harry said to Chen Rui, "The U.S. government has approved the export of weapons to us, including 12 Bell 407 helicopters, a batch of weapons, military vehicles, communication equipment, etc. This batch of weapons and equipment is sufficient. 1500+ people.

U.S. defense equipment officials have also mentioned that we could sell several small defense ships to us. "

Chen Rui nodded.

It can be seen from this that the United States acquiesced to the increase in the number of escorts in the eastern part of Tortuga Island to 1,200.

At least Chen Rui's foothold in the eastern part of Tortuga Island has the tacit approval of the United States, which is very important.

This may have something to do with Chen Rui's position at the White House Christmas banquet last year with Ao Hei.

neutral.

There is no intention to destabilize the local area.

The United States would love to see a city like the Xiangjiang of the East rise in the Caribbean, which is in the interest of the United States.

The United States can rely on Tortuga Island, a free port, to further radiate American commercial interests to the countries in the Gabriel region.

For example, the coffee of the sea.

As we all know, the most famous in the world is Jamaica's Blue Mountain coffee.

On Google Maps, Haiti and Jamaica are two adjacent countries, at the same latitude, with the same natural environment and climate, with fertile volcanic soil, fresh air, no pollution, humid climate, foggy and rainy all year round.

It's just that Jamaican coffee is well cultivated and processed to create the most famous Blue Mountain coffee in the world.

However, due to war and poverty, Hai's coffee has not been well cultivated and processed. Even in the final selection stage, Hai's does not distinguish the quality of the coffee beans from each farm, and the coffee beans are mixed with good and bad. The coffee of the sea is not famous in the world.

Often appears with blended coffee.

In Japan and Japan, Haitian coffee is often blended into Jamaican coffee, which makes Blue Mountain coffee more intense, and is known as the Blue Mountain good partner.

To give an analogy, two people from the same environment, Jamaica coffee is the master after good cultivation and processing, and Hai's coffee is not well cultivated and processed due to war and poverty, and is the servant girl who serves the master.

Top international coffees are in short supply.

If Haidi's coffee can be well cultivated and processed, and the top coffee like Blue Mountain coffee can be cultivated, the annual output value will reach tens of billions of dollars.

In addition to coffee, there are various resources, trade, financial markets and other commercial interests, which can be realized by relying on the Tortuga Island Free Port.

This is in the interest of the United States, and the United States is willing to develop Tortuga Island into a free port like the Xiangjiang River in the East according to Chen Rui's vision.

For Chen Rui to establish a foothold in the eastern part of Tortuga Island and develop a well-equipped and well-trained escort team of 1,200+ people, the United States adopts an attitude of tacit approval and limited support.

It is conceivable that Chen Rui will maintain a dense moon period with the United States for a long time.

Of course, Chen Rui would die if he wanted to.

Like Cuba during the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962, allowing the Soviet Union to deploy missiles on Cuban soil aimed at the continental United States.

Or allow other countries to lease naval bases on Tortuga Island.

Every day I shout anti-American, want to kill all Americans, hostile to the United States, and have strong hostility to the United States.

This act of killing will soon die.
