Chapter 279 Jennifer

"Barron, I have arrived in Los Angeles. Can I meet you when you have time?"

In the evening, Barron received a call from Amanda.

Now she is studying at Boston University, which is not close to Los Angeles. If she has arrived in Los Angeles now, she must have come by flight...

The flight from Boston to Los Angeles takes 5-6 hours. Based on this time, she should have been about to board the plane when she called Lydia.

but……

Didn't she tell Lydia on the phone before that they would come together to see Barron tomorrow?

Woman.

However, the beautiful woman traveled thousands of miles to see her... er, no, to see him. Of course, Barron would not refuse her cruelly.

In April in Los Angeles, the temperature is no longer cold. The highest temperature can reach 25 degrees during the day, and even at night, it is above 15 degrees.

When Barron saw Amanda, she was only wearing a long dress.

"Barron, I miss you so much..."

Compared to Lydia, Amanda can be called passionate. After seeing Barron, she trotted over and rushed into his arms.

Fortunately, this was in Amanda's own villa, otherwise Barron would have been really worried about being photographed by the paparazzi...

In that case, he would have to think about how to explain to Bonnie.

After a period of intense kissing, Amanda's face turned slightly red. She put her head in Barron's arms, looked to one side, and asked softly:

"Are you...going back tonight?"

…

Quite troublesomely, when he returned to the Malibu beach house the next day, Barron first found a tie and put it on...

After all, you need to fasten your shirt to cover the "medal" near your collarbone.

I have to say, Amanda is really passionate.

On April 10, two days after her due date, Rebecca gave birth to a baby girl.

Barron named his first child, Jennifer Cavendish.

Carefully taking the baby from the nurse's hands, Barron was hugging a treasure - even a treasure, in his eyes at this time, was not as precious as the little baby in his arms.

"Why does she look a little ugly? Her skin is wrinkled..."

When Barron showed Rebecca what his daughter looked like, Rebecca said a little disappointed.

The mother beside her explained to her:

"Babies are always like this when they are born. They are like this at first. It will be fine after a while and they will grow out. She is not ugly, and you can see that her eyebrows are very beautiful. Our Jennifer will definitely be a great beauty in the future."

To be honest, when he first met his daughter Jennifer, Barron had the same feeling as Rebecca when he saw her appearance. After all, he had never experienced such a thing before.

Fortunately, after hearing what Rebecca's mother said, he felt relieved a little, hoping that it was really what she said.

In addition to looking a little wrinkled at this time, according to doctors, little Jennifer is very healthy. She weighed more than 9 pounds at birth.

At this time, after her initial cry, she looked at Barron with her big eyes and suddenly smiled, which made Barron feel that his heart was about to melt...

At this moment, holding Jennifer, he had a vague feeling of flesh and blood connected.

This feeling is very strange.

…

After entering 2004, starting in March, the British troops stationed in Iraq had begun a withdrawal plan.

The number of British troops that initially entered the battlefield in Iraq was as high as 45,000.

After Saddam Hussein's regime was overthrown and a transitional government was established, British troops began to gradually withdraw. Currently, there are less than 30,000 British troops remaining in Iraq.

According to the British government's plan, it will continue to withdraw British troops within this year, ensuring that the number of British troops remaining in Iraq is less than 20,000.

But even though Iraq has completed its "regime change," their new government still does not have complete control over the situation. On the contrary, the wanton killing of civilians in Iraq by the British and American coalition forces and military contractors such as Blackwater has inspired more resistance forces to continuously carry out various attacks on coalition forces and British and American targets.

Therefore, when the British government began to promote the withdrawal plan due to domestic pressure, as British military personnel were removed, more and more security tasks needed to be undertaken by private military companies.

As early as this year, Protector Military Company's personnel in Iraq had increased to more than 1,000 people.

However, these personnel are still far from meeting the needs of local security. Therefore, since this year, they have continued to increase their personnel. Currently, they have more than 1,500 personnel in Iraq.

In fact, if necessary, they can provide more personnel. After all, after the Iraq War, many of the soldiers who retreated to the British mainland have begun to retire. A considerable number of them can be absorbed by the Protector Military Company. of.

However, Barron does not want the Protector Military Company to eventually lose control due to its eagerness to expand its scale, causing an ending like the Blackwater Company in its previous life. Therefore, Barron has been controlling the scale and requirements of the Protector Military Company to absorb retired British troops.

However, there is still a problem, that is, the personnel of the Protector Military Company who perform security tasks in Iraq need to be on alert most of the time. After a long time, psychological pressure will gradually accumulate, and they need to be appropriately Otherwise, these people armed with weapons will inevitably lose control.

Therefore, after a period of time, the personnel assigned to Iraq by the Protector Military Company will be given a "holiday" to return home to recuperate or go to other places to recuperate.

For this reason, since April, a large number of African-American Protector Military Company fighters have appeared in Iraq.

Most of these personnel are local soldiers from Kolo in the Kolo Corps who rotate to the Iraqi base of Protector Military Company for overseas assignments.

This kind of rotation method can, on the one hand, strengthen the "actual combat training" of the local armed personnel of the Colo Corps, and on the other hand, it can also maintain the personnel stationed in Iraq and be able to complete the rotation.

Because being deployed to Iraq can get higher subsidies and greatly increase income, for the local soldiers of the Colo Corps, this is also an opportunity that many of them compete for, and only the soldiers with the best performance can get it." reward”.

The retired British soldiers from the Protector Military Company who temporarily returned to Kolo from their base in Iraq to rest and recuperate can also be responsible for training the local soldiers of Kolo in the safer and more stable Kolo. Although at this time The income is not as high as in Iraq, but it is necessary for them to balance their psychology.

The Colo Legion took over some equipment from the original Colo government army. The main part of this equipment was French equipment originally purchased from France.

However, after the establishment of the Colo Corps, the government army will naturally not continue to rely on France for military equipment.

Their equipment will gradually shift to the standard equipment of the British army.

The arrival of these former British soldiers will also help the soldiers of the Colo Corps to become familiar with some British equipment.

It also includes the CH47 Chigannu transport helicopter, which has also served in the British Army.

These helicopters are currently owned by the Colo Corps. Before this, they were operated by retired members of the British Army. In the future, local talents in Colo will also be trained.
