King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer Chapter 564 544: Money Paves the Way, Undermining the Enemy'

Joe Ga didn't feel much about 'Gunfire''s experience because he wasn't particularly familiar with the situation in England.

The Irish Republican Army was formidable; they had fought against England for many years, and now, the Republican Army had faded into obscurity, but there was still a small area in the north of Ireland that was in a rather awkward situation.

'Gunfire' was of Irish heritage, had joined the English military, but ended up being kicked out of the military because a relative was involved with the Republican Army.

To Joe Ga, this situation sounded very awkward, let alone to empathize!

However, understanding it or not wasn't important. Now that he knew 'Gunfire' was a master among masters, Joe Ga naturally started to take him seriously.

Up to now, Joe Ga had experienced so many battles and seen so many impressive teams, but the milestone that still left a deep impression on him in his heart was the 'Combat Diving Training'.

Joe Ga didn't know about others, but he had personally heard Dorian's cousin ntion 'Gunfire,' who had led a group through the complete Combat Diving Training.

Such a person must be utilized!

Many people were seated in the conference room...

All the core mbers of P·B were present...

Representatives from the Arican SEALs 'Hellhound,' the French SAS 'Hatchet,' and the English SAS team leader 'Knight'...

Wagner's representative Salenko, the Tuareg representative 'Gunfire,' and Sevillian commander Zahovic...

Besides the combat personnel, there were also representatives of the temporary governnt elected by the local Libyans, observers from France, observers from England...

Joe Ga glanced at the Englishman whose leg was still in plaster, then unapologetically walked to the front of the conference room...

Looking at the bunch of people below who had turned their gaze towards him, Joe Ga said with a smile, "I heard that you guys have been having a rough ti fighting, so I ca! If you have any problems, speak now.

If you feel that P·B has fallen short in any way over the past month, speak up now. We can improve."

As he spoke, Joe Ga looked at the strange expressions of the people below and spread his hands, saying, "If you don't speak now, I will assu you have no problems..."

Several team leaders of T1 special forces made eye contact with each other before it was SEALs 'Hellhound' who raised his hand and said, "Sir, the nature of the battle in Tubruq has changed. We have taken over so areas, but the following counterinsurgency operations are going to be more troubleso.

Currently, there are approximately 30,000 civilians remaining in the city of Tubruq. So of them sympathize with al-Qaeda, and so are unwilling to abandon their hos, creating many obstacles for our bombing and operations.

My personal suggestion is to follow the example of what was done in Iraq back in the day, establish a green zone, and resu work and production first. The rest can be dealt with gradually.

We need to develop a local security force. Only with the cooperation of the locals can we find all those terrorists."

Joe Ga listened and said noncommittally, "Have we taken over the oil refinery and the docks yet?"

Zahovic stood up and said, "Yes, but..."

Joe Ga knew what the 'but' ant. The oil refinery and the docks covered an enormous area, and taking them didn't necessarily an they were secure.

Terrorists, like rats, could sneak in anywhere, throw a grenade, or fire so shots, and bring those two places to a standstill.

The vast urban area of Tubruq was the terrorists' hiding place.

With five or six hundred people, without the substantial cooperation of the locals, it would be very difficult to find them.

Because without guns, these people would blend into the crowd and beco indistinguishable.

Several special forces teams had been in Tubruq for a month, working with missiles to take down many terrorists.

When those people realized there was a problem, their tracks beca even harder to follow, especially when so locals sympathized with them and were willing to help.

This is the toughest situation in war!

It's why the Aricans were worn out in Iraq and Aqionghan because they fell into this unsolvable situation.

Soldiers out on patrol could find any pile of street garbage to be an IED, and any old man by the roadside could pull out a gun and open fire on them.

The psychological pressure on soldiers under such circumstances doesn't need to be elaborated on.

Joe Ga absolutely didn't want his people to fall into this kind of situation!

He believed that although so locals might sympathize with or even support al-Qaeda, he was even more convinced that the majority of people yearn for peace and a better life.

Based on this theory, Joe Ga had already co up with a possible solution.

He gestured for Zahovic to sit down and looked at 'Gunfire,' who had been silent since entering, and said, "What do you think it would take to fully secure the docks and the oil refinery with manpower?"

'Gunfire' was taken aback for a mont then, after scanning the people present, said, "If we rely solely on manpower to defend such large areas, even with 1000 people, it's unrealistic to expect to make it completely secure.

However, if we combine it with a wire fence that has no blind spots, advanced monitoring equipnt, and dynamic sensing devices, then probably 400 people should be able to basically ensure the security of these two places."

Saying this, 'Gunfire' hesitated a mont, then added, "But I think the best way to get rid of the trouble from al-Qaeda is to eliminate the mbers of al-Qaeda in Tubruq."
