From Arms Dealer To King of War

  Chapter 433 A plea from the President

  The ferocity shown by the 'Rhinoceros' made Setaka's soldiers lose their fighting spirit.

  The fighting spirit was disintegrated, and at the same time, they were surrounded, and soon those soldiers who used to dominate the territory put down their weapons and chose to surrender.

  Choga and Francois entered Nova City at 8:00 pm, and then they went to a temporary venue together.

  The so-called coup in Setaka lasted for more than 60 hours, and it was extremely short-lived.

  Originally, according to François' intention, it would be better to capture Setaka and let him stand trial in front of the public, so as to demonstrate the democracy in Central Africa.

  But now Setaka is dead, and he died very badly, so there is no way.

  Transferring the administrative power of Nova City to the Central African government is a strategy Choga has already decided, and P·B's principled position cannot be changed.

  Then it is up to the president to appease the local people. As the future security contractor of Nova City, Choga must stand with Francois at this time and express his support for him.

   When riding in the Mirosh armored vehicle to the venue, Choga saw local people protesting everywhere along the way.

Qiaojia rolled down the car window curiously and listened carefully, and he found a middle-aged man with glasses shouting in very standard English, "Please help us restore the school, please help us punish the murderer who killed the teacher !"

  At first, Choga thought that the protesters were trying to put pressure on Francois, but now he found that it didn't seem to be the case.

   Setaka, who has ruled here for nearly ten years, seems to be far less popular than Choga imagined.

   You must know that Nova City can barely be regarded as an MSL area, and more than half of the people here are MSL.

  This kind of **** structure, theoretically speaking, has a huge influence on the local area. Even if Setaka is an idiot, ten years is enough for him to turn this place into an iron barrel.

  What the **** is this guy doing? Let those who seem a little cultured hate him for not dying!

  Francois saw the curious expression on Choga's face, he said with a smile: "Don't be surprised, according to the standards of Afika ten years ago, Setaka is actually not too bad.

  It is not without reason that he was able to score in Bangui, and he was able to get the support of many people.

   Setaka is very generous, and since the blood diamond business made him a lot of money, he has become even more generous.

  He bought houses for his subordinates, bought medicines for his subordinates, and paid high salaries to his subordinates...

  He cultivated a group of very loyal men, and then those people fought bravely to repay his trust.

   But they met the 'anteaters', those old men under your command. "

Speaking of what Francois seemed to think of, he rubbed his cheeks unnaturally, and said: "The intervention of the United Nations did not actually make Setaka retreat. The Setaka soldiers at that time were very cruel. Most of them Be afraid of them, because they seem to fear nothing, and there must be rivers of blood where they pass.

   It was the 'Rhino' who brought the 'Anteater Legion' with few people left into Bangui...

  When they brutally killed Setaka's 300th person, Setaka retreated.

  He retreated to Nova City, and then became a de facto warlord here, controlling nearly half of the blood diamond business in Central Africa.

   Setaka is actually an ambitious person, but his subordinates who helped him get started "kidnapped" him.

   Setaka wants to invite professional people to establish the system, but those people will not live long after they go.

  He wants to start a small government, but the only people he can use are those who started with him.

  Those people united and pushed Setaka to the position of King of the North, but then conservatively refused to accept any changes.

   That man just now I know him because he once went to the blue hat camp in Bengui for help.

  I can't remember his name, but I know he is a teacher, or the principal, in Nova City.

  When he was a teacher, he was cut off 3 fingers in public because he criticized a child under Setaka.

  A teacher in their school was blown to death in the classroom with an RPG because he gave zero marks to Setaka's children.

   Setaka is not a lunatic, at least not in the early days, but he recruited the most brutal soldiers with the most brutal methods, and then he himself was trapped in it and he couldn't get rid of it at all.

   This guy is actually very generous, but he has no checks and balances, so he ends up being a puppet of the diamond company.

  Because only external support exists, he can safely sit in the position of 'king'..."

  After Qiaojia heard this, he didn't know how to evaluate this guy who had never even met him.

   This guy started his career as a bandit, using brutal means to coerce the proletarians into his bandit team.

   It was nothing like this at first, but he seemed to have an ideal suddenly, and at the same time, he didn't understand that the so-called soldiers he was coercing were not the help to realize his ideal at all.

  Like the Liangshan hero in the story, no matter how big they eat meat and share the gold, no matter how tricked and abducted people go up the mountain, no matter how high the flag of righteousness is, a robber is a robber.

   They are not producers, they are predators!

  At the same time, because their internal ecology gradually took shape, they got used to their own situation.

  Anyone who wants to change will have to pay a price!

   It is said that Song Jiang is a bastard, but Song Jiang is absolutely smart.

   But Fansetaka has 20% of Song Jiang's wisdom, so he probably won't be able to get to this point.

  It's okay to be a robber, but when you play awe-inspiring, you should take the initiative to stand facing the sun.

  All systems in this world are false, and absolute power is a joke in Afika, but universal values ​​are basically unified.

   Only when others discover the 'altruism' in you, can they truly recognize your authority.

  All regimes, religions, parties, etc. are false, and the democracy and freedom advocated by the West are even more beautiful lies!

  Ordinary people have never wanted democracy and freedom, and in fact there is no absolute democracy and freedom at all.

Laomei always thinks that there is no democracy and freedom in Huaguo, but in fact, if you live in a middle-class community in the United States, if the lawn in front of your door is not well repaired, maybe someone will trouble you, maybe someone will complain about you when you hang clothes on your balcony .

The real freedom in old America has never been individual freedom, but organizational freedom, which has led to a series of "truck unions", "director unions", "police unions" and various messy "committees" and "associations". Also because of religious freedom, all kinds of strange religions have been born, and even a dozen people can form a party to participate in politics.

   And it is these organizations that have penetrated into all aspects of society and formulated many rules at the same time.

  These organizations are naturally political, and as one node after another, they have completed the 'rule-making' that cannot be completed by law.

  Free?

   It is definitely not free for ordinary people, but politically these organizations have a lot of freedom.

   And these organizations just happen to represent one interest group after another...

   Regardless of whether this form is good or bad, can such a framework really be transplanted?

   Without the same capital soil and primitive accumulation, forced transplantation will only produce all kinds of freaks.

  So those who want to incite you to do something under the banner of democracy and freedom are either fools themselves, or representatives of an interest group.

  Without enough knowledge, you can’t even judge whether people want to recruit you or use you as cannon fodder.

   'rules', 'boundaries', 'protection'

  These three things are what people really need, and they are what ordinary people should firmly demand.

  Joga’s divergent thinking made him think of many things...

  Where is the future of P·B? How should I go?

  The upper limit of Central Africa is very low. After the industry in Sangha Town is fully developed, the mineral resources there are not enough to support the development there for 20 years.

  What will happen then?

   Talent iteration? Industrial upgrading?

   It's not that there is no chance at all, but this matter is not something that a company like P·B can decide.

   At that time, as the steel industry begins to decline, the influence of P·B will continue to decline.

  At that time, the cost of maintaining there will continue to rise. Qiaojia must steadily spread the company's influence during the smoothest period of P·B.

  How to get the influence?

  Keep a 'boundary' with the local government in Afika and stick to your own position.

  On the basis of maintaining the 'boundary', when exercising the content of the contract, to limit the formulation of the 'rules' belonging to P·B.

  Finally stand on the company's standpoint and try to provide 'safety' to those in the 'contract' as much as possible.

  This is the foundation of P·B, and it is also the key element for Choga to be able to stand upright and speak loudly under any circumstances in the future.

   Can do this, even if François is not the president, and the French support another person to come to power, Choga can calmly deal with him.

   It is strange to say that Choga has never seriously thought about influencing the political structure of Central Africa, but he has in fact become a key force outside the rules of Central Africa, and he even has an advantage over the Supreme Emperor.

  Francois described Setaka's life in a relatively objective manner, not completely aimlessly, but because he wanted to remind or beg Choja not to become a warlord like Setaka.

  Because Francois has realized that he or Central Africa has absolutely no power to contain P·B.

  Francois thinks this way, because what Choga did in the past made him see great hope.

  If P·B is just a mercenary company, he can sell the interests of Central Africa and make a lot of money by cooperating with Choga.

  But Choga was not that kind of person, and he actually pushed Francois to take another path. At this time, if Choga's big ship deviated from the direction, Francois' fate would be bad.

  Joga didn’t think of this meaning at first, but when the armored vehicle got closer to the venue, Francois’s face became more serious, and he suddenly realized something...

When the armored car stopped at the entrance of the venue, Choga took the initiative to get out of the car and walked to the other side to open the car door for François, then looked at Mr. President who seemed a little flattered, and said with a smile: "Nova City belongs to Central Africa. Part of it, this is your stage.

   Man, we probably had almost two decades of good times.

   Work hard to be a good president, maybe you will have a statue of yourself! "

  Francois nodded unexpectedly and moved. He was too afraid that Choga would enter the venue and deliver a speech similar to Sangha Town.

   Standing with Choga like that, François knows that he, including the Central African government, will become bleak.

   Now Qiaojia's statement made him completely let go of his mind...

  If people like this don’t cooperate, why not cooperate with companies that only accept money?

   Hugged Choga vigorously, Francois, whose temples were already gray, said seriously: "Jackal, you are the one who should have the statue!"
