** Can't help but be moved. Fang Mingyuan's words can be said to have clearly expounded his judgment on the situation in the Gulf in complete vernacular.Although it is very simple, these three reasons can fully support his argument.Almost all wars between countries in this world can be described in two words - as long as there are enough interests, it is not surprising that the British will immediately start a civil war

If these words were said by political commissar Lu Liang, he would only smile knowingly, and the political commissar thought of going with him again.But it's completely different for a teenager who is underage to say it.After I learned that Iraq had invaded Kuwait and the United States sent troops to the Middle East, I had to ponder over and over for quite a long time before I came to such a conclusion.Well, ** admitted that during that time, he was still struggling with raising funds and saving expenses. He didn’t have much time to think about the situation in the Middle East every day, but he was a professional soldier after all. General, you can see internal references that ordinary people can't see at all, and you can know many military secrets that ordinary people don't know.Without these materials for reference, would you dare to make such a judgment?

Especially the third point that Fang Mingyuan said, it almost touched the heart of the ****.As a general who guards the frontier and coastal defense, ** attaches great importance to the military intelligence of Japan and the United States.He also knows more or less about the cutting-edge weapons that the Americans have developed but have not yet been tested in actual combat.

As Fang Mingyuan said, the United States went to war with Iraq. This war can be said to have a lot of benefits for the Americans.Not only can those weapons and ammunition that are about to be scrapped be thrown on the heads of Iraqis legally, avoiding huge destruction costs, but also can openly experiment with new weapons, stimulate the production of domestic military enterprises, and occupy the world's arms for the weapons produced by the United States greater market share.When the cannon is fired, is it worth ten thousand taels of gold?

As a soldier himself, thinking of these things has nothing to be proud of, but as a young man, how did he come to such a judgment?Could it be that this young man not only has amazing talents in business, but also has talents beyond the reach of ordinary people in facing the intricate international situation?Thinking of this, the interest in killing Fang Mingyuan became even greater.

Looking at **'s eyes shining with a strange light, Fang Mingyuan couldn't help but feel a little nervous. He couldn't help but think back to what he said just now, and it seemed that he didn't say anything serious.The reason why he said this is also to remind the government. If it is possible to use the words of the government to make the senior leaders in the country realize the great military and economic significance of the upcoming Gulf War , so if you plan ahead, it would be great.

Although he does not think that all the think tanks supported by the country are vegetarians, he does not see the importance of this, and he does not think that among the millions of soldiers in the country, there are no far-sighted and far-sighted people. In his previous life, he had experienced too many ridiculous words from "bricks" and "beasts", and he hated the sanctimoniousness of these elites to the bone.So I still want to remind the higher-ups by beating around the bush.

It's just that these words are not suitable to mention to Su Huandong. After all, he is not a soldier. It is a taboo for soldiers to intervene in politics. It is also unpopular for unrelated government personnel to point fingers at the military.As for the Lu, Mei, and Chai families, he hasn't been able to meet the big bosses who can really talk to the military, so for now, ** is quite suitable.

Just look at him, in such a tight military budget, still do everything possible to ensure the training of the army, you can understand that this is a qualified soldier who keeps vigilance against foreign enemies all the time, and as a member of the navy, even if he is He can't be called the youngest, but he is also a very young general. His future can be said to be bright. If he can make suggestions to the upper echelons of the navy and even the Ministry of Defense, it must be more important than saying it himself.

"How is it? Are you interested in applying for a military academy in the future, becoming a glorious soldier, galloping across the ocean, and defending the borders of the motherland?" ** said solemnly.

"Ah?" Fang Mingyuan opened his mouth wide in surprise, how could he suddenly say such a word.

Seeing Fang Mingyuan's surprised look, ** finally realized that his words might not be appropriate.Judging from the news he knows, Fang Mingyuan is probably the core member of the newly-emerged Fang family. Among the members of the Fang family, the two old people don't seem to be in charge of things. Fang Mingyuan's parents have always been in that Haizhuang In the small town, only his second uncle and younger uncle are in the family business, but one is a deputy in the Carrefour supermarket, and the other is helping Yu Qiuxia in Hong Kong.If I asked him to put down his family property and become a soldier, even if he agreed, his family would never agree.If not, it will make other members of the Fang family feel dissatisfied with him.

"Just kidding, kidding," ** said with a quick haha.God knows how long this situation of austerity in military spending will last, so it is still very important to have a good relationship with the Fang family.At least in the past few years, he begged his grandpa to sue his grandma, and the funds he got from going around for alms are still less than a quarter of the Fang family's loan this time.

The two of them just stood at the bow of the boat, chatting casually. Naturally, their topic could not be separated from the development of Yalong Bay, Haitang Bay and the situation in the Middle East.The more he talked, the more frightened he was. He was not good at this commercial thing, and he couldn't tell where it was. Out of the trust of Mingyuan's business talent, he didn't care too much about the possibility of failure in the development of these two bays in the future.But regarding the situation in the Middle East and the future direction of the war, he is a professional.

Listening to Fang Mingyuan's speculation about the future war, combined with the military information he could see, ** felt more and more that it would be a pity if Fang Mingyuan did not serve in the army in the future.

In the middle of the ship, Qi Yan was leaning on the railing and watching the two chatting and laughing at the bow.

"Sister Qi, what are you standing here looking at?" Luo Dongwu said a little strangely, there was nothing worthy of attention here.And Qi Yan was not like Fang Mingyuan and the others, who had never been on a warship, and were curious about everything they saw.

"Tobu, how did you say that little devil Fang's family was educated? How could we have such an opportunity with Commander Zhao?" Qi Yan pouted towards the bow of the ship.Only then did Luo Dongwu notice the two people standing at the bow of the ship.I couldn't help being surprised in my heart.

Qi Yan knew very well in her heart that although she was always polite to her, in essence, she didn't like her, and thought that her smuggling was digging the country's walls and disrupting the country's normal market order.But because I came here on behalf of the Northwest Military Region, and the current shortage of military expenditures in the army is a real problem that no one can deny, and the Northwest Region is located in an underdeveloped area of ​​China. There is not much profit in the local area.Moreover, smuggling by oneself is more measured. Like the commodities strictly prohibited by those countries, although the profits are extremely high, I have not touched them myself.That's why I turned a blind eye to what I did.But that doesn't mean he has any affection for him.

This time, thanks to Fang Mingyuan, as a matchmaker, she received much better treatment in ** and Luliang.

But when compared with Fang Mingyuan, Qi Yan felt that she had failed to the extreme. It was just a few meetings, and Fang Mingyuan was able to make such a harmonious relationship with **, a dignified admiral.

"Hmph, if we can also lend 4000 million yuan to the Yazhou Naval Base, I guess General Zhao will not be what he used to be." Luo Dongwu said angrily, "He is rich and generous, how can we compare?" A small island is willing to spend 5000 million yuan to rent it for 70 years. In Luo Dongwu's view, it is purely a prodigal son.

"It's not like we didn't send money to General Zhao before, but when did Commander Zhao accept it?" Qi Yan asked angrily.If things were as simple as Luo Dongwu said, then you would be relieved.Luo Dongwu blinked and blinked, but was out of words.

At this time, I saw a jeep approaching in the dust, driving all the way to the bottom of the destroyer, and then stopped. The officer just now, carrying a long box, took three steps at a time and ran up to the top of the ship. The boat is coming.When he came to **, he stood at attention and offered the box with both hands.

** took the box over and said with a smile, "Thank you, everything is fine here." The officer saluted, then turned and left.

Fang Mingyuan looked at the long wooden box with a hint of doubt in his eyes, could it be?

**Turned around, put the wooden box into Fang Mingyuan's hand and said, "I'll let you call Uncle Zhao, it's a bit of a gift to be an uncle. This is a Japanese military saber captured by the chief during the War of Resistance Against Japan. Later, it was given to me as a gift. I don’t have any good things here, so you just accept it.”

Sure enough, it was a Japanese sword. Fang Mingyuan immediately beamed with joy.

Although it is said that the Japanese sword is born out of the Tang sword in China, it is very different from the Tang sword.The blade of a general Japanese sword is very narrow, but due to the use of fine steel as raw material, the forging and quenching process is very sophisticated, so the strength is high, the blade is sharp, and the wavy knife pattern is clearly visible; Collectors everywhere regard it as a treasure.In particular, a saber seized from an officer of the Japanese army that invaded China has historical significance.
