Chapter 1041 The situation changes

In Beijing, an emergency meeting is being held.

First, the US military budget for fiscal year 2001 was as high as 370 billion US dollars, then the US announced in a high-profile manner that it would support India with more than 13.5 billion US dollars in military aid, and now the Polar Bear and India have reached the largest military purchase in history, with a military purchase of up to 30 billion US dollars.

At this time, there is a sense of impending storm.

Even Liu Tao was a little confused.

You know, although the warships sold by the Polar Bear are old ships except for the "Dreadnought" class destroyers and the "Modern" class destroyers, it does not mean that these warships have no combat effectiveness.

At least in South Asia, these warships are big killers, enough to make the Indian Navy leap to the top navy there.

You know, India has previously purchased two aircraft carriers from the Polar Bear, one of which is a helicopter carrier and the other is a serious modern aircraft carrier.

Although both aircraft carriers have been in service for decades and are old ships, they should not be underestimated.

Liu Tao was puzzled, does India have so much money to buy weapons for polar bears?

You know, that's 30 billion US dollars!

The 13.5 billion US dollars in military aid announced by the United States before was mainly in the field of weapons and equipment, not funds.

In Liu Tao's opinion, the 13.5 billion US dollars in military aid was mostly used for accounting.

Under normal circumstances, those weapons and equipment might be worth only 2 billion US dollars, and the United States used this method to make 11.5 billion US dollars.

If it was Panshan Group, 500 million US dollars would be the most.

In recent years, the US military and military-industrial complex have really been suffocated.

They did such a big thing at once.

He was wondering how India could come up with the 30 billion US dollars to give to polar bears.

Polar bears have not been rich in recent years, and the landlords have no surplus food.

It was only during this period that energy prices rose, and polar bears had a slightly better life.

But Liu Tao didn't believe that polar bears didn't care about 30 billion US dollars and gave away warships for free.

The meeting began, and the intelligence department reported the relevant situation.

The mystery in Liu Tao's heart was finally solved.

The United States provided India with an interest-free loan of $8 billion. As the leader of the Commonwealth, the United Kingdom took the lead and provided a military aid of 5 billion pounds and an interest-free loan of 2 billion pounds.

In addition to the foreign exchange remitted by Indian migrant workers every year, India can really come up with such a large sum of money.

At the beginning, India proposed to pay in rupees, but the polar bear did not agree at all.

"If the war in South Asia breaks out, it will even affect the safety of the routes in the Indian Ocean. There is also Annan, which is ready to move. If we are not careful, the war will reignite." Someone pointed to the location of Annan and the entire South Asia.

Others also spoke up and discussed countermeasures.

Liu Tao hesitated for a moment, and said: "I am not worried about other directions. I am worried about the northeast direction. This is a huge powder keg, and the situation is very complicated. The polar bear has a huge influence there. If this huge powder keg is ignited, it will be difficult for us to stay out of it."

In the South Asian direction, there are Pakistan, Khalistan, Nepal, and East India. No matter how hard they fight, they don't have to go down. They just need to play the role of a good nanny. In Southeast Asia, there is only Annan left, but Annan has to face Laos and Cambodia, whose combined military strength is still higher than Annan's. No matter what happens, he doesn't have to go down, just watch the show from behind.

Moreover, in Southeast Asia, the terrain is there. To the south is the Mekong River, and it is not so easy to fight across the Mekong River. In the middle is a mountain range running north and south. If Annan wants to fight across the mountains, he must be prepared to pay huge casualties. At the junction, the width is only 30 to 40 kilometers, and the fortifications are very complete. Laos and Cambodia have more than 20,000 troops there. It will not be a matter of a day or a night to capture the military fortress there.

Liu Tao is worried about the northeast, where the situation is very complicated, but China does not have enough influence.

When others heard what Liu Tao said, they couldn't help but show a solemn look.

The northeast is indeed a huge trouble. The US military has 76,000 troops stationed there, 33 military bases, and has military command over the South Korean army in the war.

Yes, the command of the Korean army is not in the hands of South Korea, but in the hands of the United States.

Coupled with the huge influence of polar bears in the northeast, who knows if they will frantically detonate this huge powder keg.

China is promoting the revitalization strategy of the old industrial base in the northeast, and wants to activate the economic vitality of the northeast and accelerate the development of the northeast. So far, a lot of money has been invested.

If there is a problem in the northeast, it will affect the revitalization strategy of the old industrial base in the northeast.

Moreover, not only the northeast, but also Outer Mongolia and Central Asia, which have to be considered.

"This is a contest, testing us, we must take the current situation seriously, and the United States wants to strengthen its military hegemony. This is a test." Liu Tao said in a deep voice: "Once there is a retreat, the entire South Asian situation will inevitably deteriorate, and changes in Southeast Asia are inevitable. There may be things out of control in other directions!"

"In terms of normal trade, we can't retreat! There are also the three armed forces of the navy, army and air force. We must speed up construction, strengthen military strength, and respond to new changes. I suggest a launch test at sea and fire a shot for everyone to see." Liu Tao felt the danger of the current situation.

I don't know when the situation has evolved into this.

He even doubted whether the Americans would make further attempts.

"We should also note that the strategy of developing the central and western regions must be accelerated. While we attach importance to foreign trade exports, we must also increase the construction of our own markets and build two large internal and external cycles to ensure that some people will not take risks!" Liu Tao originally thought that the next step would be to quell the war in Africa, negotiate well, and then wait for something to happen.

But he did not expect that the Americans could not wait to start probing.

India dared to take the initiative to provoke a war at the beginning of the year. This was definitely not a hot-headedness, but there were two or even three hands behind it.

It must be said that as the world's number one power, the influence of the Americans is indeed in all aspects, and there are many cards to play.

Unconsciously, such a shocking thing was done.

Before that, he did not even notice it.

Others also spoke up, and gradually, everyone reached a consensus.

Opposing hegemony and unilateralism is the consensus of the whole world, and actively promoting the process of multipolarization is also what everyone is working hard for.

Therefore, we must continue to emphasize peace and development and resolve differences through political negotiations.

In addition, wars in grain-producing areas such as the Ganges Plain and the Indus Plain will inevitably affect grain production. It is foreseeable that there will be a huge food gap in the world, and we must be prepared for this in advance.

Otherwise, the destructive power of the lack of food will even exceed that of a war.
