"Senior commander of the foreign mercenary regiment?"
Schneider repeated it in disbelief, and after being confirmed by Tao Donglai's eyes, he slowly shook his head and said, "This appointment...is really an unusual path!"
Since Sing Tao was included in the territory of Haihan, it has existed as the bridgehead of the country in the Malacca area, and its military role is far greater than other functions.Therefore, Roger has been in charge of Sing Tao for more than 20 years, and has always focused on military construction, and has made external expansion one of Sing Tao's long-term goals.
However, Xingdao was limited by its own conditions and the external environment after all. In addition, in the early years, the country's development focus had been on the north, and Xingdao could not get much support from the country, so that Roger's expansion plan could not be realized at all.
Over the years, the scale of the Xingdao garrison has not changed much, and it can only meet the needs of defending the soil.Moreover, due to the consideration of international relations, Xingdao cannot send troops to invade the territories of neighboring countries at will, so the expansion speed of the ruled area is far slower than that of other large areas.
In such an environment subject to various constraints, Roger created a unique military organization called the Foreign Mercenary Corps for the convenience of doing things, to do some dirty work that is inconvenient for the regular army.
The appearance of the Xingdao foreign mercenary group brought mixed joy and sorrow to the neighboring countries.The good news is that you can spend money to hire Haihan's armed forces for your own use. There is no doubt about its combat effectiveness. It will definitely be more useful than your own army to attack enemy targets, defend your own fortresses, and quell domestic rebellions.
What is worrying is that this armed force only recognizes money, not people. If they accept employment from their own side today, they may serve the enemy country tomorrow. It just depends on who pays a higher price.To face such an armed force on the battlefield with a combat power not much different from that of the Haihan Army would be a headache for anyone.
Therefore, while the business of the foreign mercenary group is getting better and better, many countries have sued Sanya, believing that Haihan deliberately indulged the mercenary group to disrupt the regional situation and destroy the original local balance.
Of course, even without the participation of the mercenary group, the local situation would not be much peaceful.
There are as many as dozens of countries in Southeast Asia, and the disputes and wars among the countries have been going on all the time. In many cases, Haihan even needs to intervene in mediation.These countries that complained are worried that they will become the target of the mercenary group one day.
Sanya has always turned a blind eye to Xingdao. The local government has to maintain huge military expenditures, and it is understandable to do some dirty work with high returns every day.But there were more voices going to Victory Fort to complain, and Sanya couldn't help but start to notice some violations of Xingdao's mercenary group.
At the same time, there are some voices in China who believe that it is inappropriate for Singdao to maintain an armed force outside the establishment, and that it should be included in the formation of the regular army, under the unified command of the Ministry of National Defense.Otherwise, it should be dissolved to avoid unnecessary international disputes.
Roger had invested considerable resources in forming this force, and of course it was impossible to disband it in response.But he also had to face doubts to prove that the foreign mercenary group's loyalty to Haihan was no worse than that of the regular army.
Tao Donglai said: "Roger directly transferred a commander from the mercenary group, just to let us see if the people in the mercenary group are reliable."
Schneider said: "There are many opinions in the country against the retention of the mercenary group, but he has a big heart, and he is not afraid that this person will not accept the climate in Sanya and make people laugh."
Tao Donglai smiled and said: "If someone wants to see a joke, there will naturally be someone who will protect him and prevent him from becoming a joke."
What kind of person is Schneider, upon hearing Tao Donglai's tone, he immediately asked: "It seems that something has gone wrong since this person came?"
Tao Donglai said: "It's not really a mistake, it's just that the habit in the mercenary regiment hasn't changed yet, and in the end it was He Xi who helped him to prevent him from falling."
Schneider was about to ask carefully, but Ning Qi was already ahead of him and asked, "Why is He Xi starting to choose sides? Could it be you again?"
Tao Donglai waved his hands and said, "That's not what I meant. It should be that Luo Jie gave some conditions in exchange for He Xi to take care of his subordinates."
Ning Qi muttered: "A thousand miles away, what kind of exchange can Roger offer him?"
Tao Donglai smiled and said, "Then you have to ask him yourself."
The Security Department under He Xi's jurisdiction is a special agency directly under the Executive Committee, so there is no doubt about its loyalty, so even if He Xi's move is suspected of standing in line, and it may also have an exchange of interests with the military leaders of overseas regions, the presence of this The three of them did not doubt He Xi's reliability.
Schneider finally seized the opportunity to interject: "How did Old He trust you, let's hear it."
Tao Donglai said: "The matter is actually very simple. The recent promotional activities in Xingdao were too popular, and the Portuguese couldn't stand it any longer. The embassy sent people to monitor outside the Xingdao office. In the end, for some reason, the person who just came from Xingdao found out, and then led people to kidnap all the people from the Portuguese embassy.”
Schneider said in amazement: "So reckless? Then Lao He should have stopped it?"
Tao Donglai nodded and said: "If Lao He hadn't stopped him in time, those people might have all been sunk into the Linchun River. It is said that he also did some clean-up work for him, otherwise the Portuguese would probably not It will still be found on his head."
Schneider sighed: "No wonder, those two Portuguese guys came to complain to me today. I frightened them a little bit, but they didn't respond. It turns out that they have something to do!"
Simao and Thomas thought that Schneider might know the truth about the kidnapping case, so they didn't dare to continue pestering him, but they implemented Neder's false threats at the time.
Tao Donglai said: "Maybe they were trying to test you. If you frighten them like this, they probably think that this is our official action."
Schneider said: "That's okay, as long as Lao He handles the matter cleanly, they can only guess wildly, and there is no real evidence... But Lao He made a move, and Roger owes him a favor." gone."
Ning Qi responded: "Actually, no matter whether Lao He makes a move or not, we will not let this person have an accident, at least not during his term of office."
Schneider was taken aback for a moment, then nodded and said, "That's right, if something happens to him, I'm afraid there may be a misunderstanding on Roger's side."
Although Shao Tianhu's identity is only a naturalized officer, he can still be regarded as a general under Roger's command. The main purpose of being sent to Sanya is to prove Xing Tao's loyalty to the executive committee. If something happens to him in Sanya, Roger I'm afraid it won't be considered an accident.
