Ace of the Dragon Division - Chapter 845

Chapter 845: Capital and war

Why did some people in the Congress say that targeting the land of mercenaries was a thankless task? First of all, the land of mercenaries was located in the Middle East. The UA’s satellite missiles were not so far away that they could bombard without the help of any soldiers. This was impossible. Even if it was possible, the missiles would be blown up immediately when they flew over the heads of Hua or Russia. They would not allow the UA’s missiles to fly over their heads. So if they really wanted to fight, they could only send troops! Well, even if they sent out their troops, the United States had absolutely advanced land equipment that completely overpowered a poor country like the land of mercenaries. However, the key was that even if you won the land of mercenaries and used the victorious country as a colony, it would be difficult for you to protect this place. Once you started a war with other countries, your land would be the first to collapse. Moreover, if you send out troops, it will require manpower and material resources to fight the war, which means that there is the possibility of casualties. If you invest a large amount of capital in war funds, even if you win, it will be difficult to defend this place as your fortress in the future war. To put it bluntly, the land of mercenaries is not an ideal military base to restrain Asia, so why is it called a thankless task? Putting that aside, there was only one other reason left-the reason why the United States insisted on attacking the land of mercenaries. Crude oil! That’s right, the only crude oil resource that could be seized at the moment seemed to be more abundant in the land of mercenaries. People like the Middle East and Saudi Arabia couldn’t snatch it, so they could only focus on the land of mercenaries, which had been in chaos. Everyone knew that the Rockefeller family in the United States started off with oil. They monopolized 70% of the oil in the United States and created the world’s second largest oil group,’mobil’, worth more than 500 billion US dollars! It was not difficult to see their shadow behind this war. This was a conspiracy of the mobil Rockefeller family to Annex more crude oil and expand. Their goal was to monopolize the United States then monopolize the world. Allowing the United States to get crude oil resources was a situation that other major countries did not want to see. Therefore, the United States wanted to transport missiles to the Wei nation. It was completely possible to launch the missiles from the Wei nation to the land of mercenaries, but the two major obstacles in the middle, China and Russia, wouldn’t let them be successfully launched. They would intercept the missiles from the middle, and it wouldn’t be difficult to use an anti-guided system to intercept the missiles and deviate the trajectory. This was also something that the United States was not confident in, so they could only choose to send troops. As the White House said, they had another way, which was to land directly in the land of mercenaries from the Indian Ocean! With an aircraft carrier, landing in the land of mercenaries was a piece of cake. However, there were always some powerful countries that were not willing to let the United States do as they wished. If you swam from the Pacific Ocean to the Indian Ocean, the problem would be in the Pacific Ocean. That was why the United States had always wanted to contain Asia. It was because this continent was stuck in the tropical and subtropical regions of the earth. Your various military strategies would not be able to avoid this continent! If the aircraft carrier wanted to make such a big circle to scare them, sure! “However, the armed forces must be reduced. Otherwise, if you are judged according to marine law, you will be provoking the many countries of the two oceans. This will cause you to be punished. Therefore, if the United States really wanted to launch a full-scale war against the land of mercenaries, they had to send troops to take them down one by one. This meant that it would be a waste of time, energy, manpower, and resources. It was a war that consumed a lot of capital. This way, other countries would be happy to see it. They also had a way to deal with you, which was to sell firearms to the land of mercenaries. On the one hand, you could make money, and on the other hand, you could exploit the financial resources of your old rivals. Why not? From the start, the United States had guessed that other countries would support the land of mercenaries in this way to drag them down, but what they didn’t expect was that the financial resources of the land of mercenaries to purchase firearms were exposed! 50 billion USD for the first firearms purchase! After the President of the United States saw the report in his office, he sat up straight. “This is impossible! Where did they get so much money? Even if they had crude oil, they didn’t have the most advanced refining technology, so they couldn’t sell much crude oil at all. It was impossible for them to have 50 billion US dollars in the Treasury less than half a year after the establishment of the country! Don’t they need construction and development? Find out if they used their land or oil mines as collateral to buy the firearms. ” “No,” the Secretary replied.”They all use capital, not credit.” This was a little awkward. The war in the United States was indeed sponsored by the Rockefeller family, but even though the mobil group was worth more than 500 billion, they couldn’t give you 50 billion. At most, they would give you 10 billion as a test. If you want 50 billion to play once, even the big families can’t afford it. Even if Citibank, a subsidiary of the Morgan family, had more than three trillion dollars in reserve, it was the money of the citizens, and they didn’t dare to take out tens of billions of dollars for you to squander. If you spend so much money every time you fight a war, you’ll be losing money. How can you make money from war? For example, the entire crude oil and minerals in the land of mercenaries were only worth more than 200 billion US dollars, and this would take decades to operate and sell. If you were really aiming for crude oil, only a fool would invest 50 billion in it right after the war started. Then, here came the problem. Where did the money come from in the land of mercenaries? The answer was on the deviant Corp. The deviant Corp didn’t have money, but Xu Cheng did! The Abu Dhabi incident caused the global oil supply to be in short supply, and the price of oil rose. At this time, haber’s father and others joined forces to rectify the entire Abu Dhabi’s crude oil and other resource projects, and haber quickly took action. He bought the mobil group’s shares for 70 billion and sold them all for 100 billion! In this way, the net profit was 30 billion US dollars! On top of that, haber himself sold off all the 20 billion he got from his family and the Abu Dhabi oil. 30 billion. An investment of 90 billion, a terrifying profit of 40 billion! At the same time, haber also made things difficult for mobil. After he short 70 billion of their shares, it directly affected the stock market panic, and mobil’s stock fell all of a sudden. At this time, haber quickly reorganized Abu Dhabi’s crude oil project and didn’t give mobil a chance to dilute their shares and make a wave of money. Abu Dhabi’s crude oil reserves recovered. This piece of news caused mobil’s stock to fall again! Because Abu Dhabi, the world’s second largest crude oil country, had restored its supply, it meant that oil prices would fall, and the result was that mobil’s shares were hurt. This made the Rockefeller family feel like they had been fed a dead fly. In this matter, the deviant Corp’s investment of 50 billion became 75 billion dollars! Then, Xu Cheng himself had more than 30 billion in liquid capital. So this time, he could sponsor the land of mercenaries with 100 billion US dollars to fight the M Nation!
