the world is at stake

The economic bases of the two sides are not equal.

Omar only reads the scriptures every day and does nothing else.But extremists also want to eat and drink, and it is very difficult to take care of this "leader of believers", not only to ensure his safety and health, but also to be concealed enough.

If the U.S. forces occupy Afghanistan, Kahevich is confident in protecting Omar, because the local residents love the 'Taliban'.But the way and speed of 'Holy Light' poaching corners are beyond imagination.

In this hidden spot, the generator is Chinese, the kerosene stove is Chinese, and the walkie-talkie is also Chinese.It was hard to change a few bulbs made in India, and they broke every three days.

In the villages near the cave, vendors appeared more frequently.

The caravans of the 'Holy Light' cannot enter the core area controlled by the 'Taliban', but Afghanistan's own hawkers fill this gap.

Herdsmen can sell their cattle and sheep at a higher price than in the past, and the commodities they obtain are more durable and cheaper.All very poor people, who could resist such convenience?

The high level of the 'Taliban' is very reluctant to believe the fact that goods shipped from far away China can be cheaper than local goods in Afghanistan?This is impossible.

Labor in Afghanistan is so cheap. Afghan women can work without complaint as long as they stutter.The cashmere homespun they weave is thick and strong, and it must be cheaper than imported ones.

But reality slapped him mercilessly.

'Holy Light' transports cotton, wool, and leather from Central Asia to Kashgar by plane, hires local workers to train and build textile factories, and then transports the products back by plane to continue trading for cattle, sheep and minerals in Central Asia.

The quality of industrial-scale production is far superior to that of Afghan women's handmade products, and the price is basically the same, or even cheaper--'Holy Light' does not make money, and even loses some money to develop the market.

The tricks of "Pinduoduo" bargaining prove one thing - a smart person can call all the relatives and friends he knows one by one just to cut a few cents.

So even if you lose a few hundred million a year, it's nothing.

Workers in Kashgar can earn money, and people in Afghanistan can save money and make money.Once a positive economic cycle is established, it can continue to develop on its own.

'Shengguang' failed to make money in agricultural and animal husbandry products, and it also looked down on the three melons and dates.As long as the local people don't interfere with its road construction and mining, industrialization is the big money maker.

How did Kahevich solve this problem?

Relying on competition is not enough.

Only destroyed.

After the "market bombing" in Karachi, Pakistan, Kahevich planned several booby-trapped ambushes and suicide attacks.

Targets include the "Holy Light" caravan, the repair shop and airport in Kabul, the Chinese mine in Kunduz, and the people who buy Chinese products.

The violent attack resulted in more than 200 deaths and injuries, most of the dead were employees of 'Holy Light' in Afghanistan and local people.The result of this is that the armed mine guard team of the 'Holy Light' is inflated like a balloon, and the current number has exceeded [-].

"But it's not enough." Kakhevich showed no mercy to the innocent dead, only felt that too few died.

After staying with Omar for a long time, normal people are gradually affected by it.He began to grow a beard and beard, his needs for food, clothing and shelter gradually weakened, and he showed extreme contempt for women and heretics.

The 'Taliban' currently completely lose confidence in frontal combat, but are addicted to terrorist attacks.Just when Kakhevich opened the notebook in his pocket, searching between the lines for the target of the next attack...

"Head, we are in trouble." A follower hurried in from outside the cave, and behind him were several 'Taliban' guards, dragging a civilian whose face was blurred and was covered in blood.

The follower was holding an iron box that had been disassembled, and there were several circuit boards inside. "We caught a guy who sold Chinese goods, and he secretly installed this thing in a nearby village."

The civilian who was dragged in was already dying, and he argued inarticulately: "This is just a radio station for everyone to communicate with each other. I haven't done anything bad."

When he heard it was 'radio station', Kakhevich was also anxious.He quickly took the iron box, and soon found that it was not just a radio station, it contained a GPS decoding chip.

This is a ground base station, communication is only a subsidiary function, and providing navigation services secretly is the main point.It can obtain GPS positioning first, and then use its own positioning to perform triangulation on the handheld terminal after networking.

The follower said anxiously again: "We have tortured this guy, he has set up this thing in several nearby villages, and he has also kept an eye on our convoy, asking about our whereabouts."

Omar has three wives, a bunch of children, plus guards in charge of security and Kahevich and others. He has twenty or thirty mouths to eat and drink.Just the amount of water used every day is not small.

Such a group of people can live in seclusion, but it is impossible to hide away from the town. Someone will always see them.If the 'Taliban' mass base is good, it doesn't matter.

but now……

Kakhevich felt a chill in his heart, and asked his subordinates: "Where did you catch this guy? How long has it been?"

The follower was taken aback for a moment, but couldn't answer right away.

Kakhevich immediately turned his head and greeted Omar's guards: "It's not safe here, we have to move. Don't want everything, leave immediately."

Omar on the blanket opened his single eye and was helped up by his personal guard.His three wives hurriedly collected their children, but they subconsciously wanted to bring some daily necessities.

Kakhevich was anxious, turned around and ran out of the cave.

The captured civilian trader fell at the entrance of the cave. Sensing someone passing by, he subconsciously grabbed Kahevich's trousers, and murmured to himself with bloody lips and tongue:

"It's too late, you're already too late. I came outside your cave yesterday to take pictures and sent precise coordinates.

The reason why I was caught by you today was to confirm that Omar is here. 5 minutes of no response and my companion will..."

Kakhevich struggled desperately until the legs of his trousers were torn apart.When he ran out of the cave, he happened to see a fast approaching light spot flying low among the mountains in the distance.

Good news, look at the ballistics, it's not rockets this time.

Bad news, the opponent used more advanced cruise missiles.

The light spot of the missile seems to be still in the sky, but it seems that the next second is right in front of us.With a cry, Kakhevich rolled down the slope in front of the cave entrance.

The two followers followed and ran out of the cave entrance. They first heard rumbling thunder, and then felt something approaching quickly in front of them. Then they were pushed back into the cave by a "thick and long object" that was more than eight meters long and weighed over two tons. .

The bodies of the followers leave and become scattered flesh and blood.

In order to create sufficient lethality in complex and varied caves, the missile uses a thermobaric warhead.Within a millionth of a second, the warhead carried out the first small-power anaerobic explosion.

The charge releases a large amount of fuel-rich high-pressure gas through a redox reaction.The gas diffuses rapidly in the closed cave, like mercury pouring down the ground, penetrating everywhere.

When the fuel gas fills the entire cave and is fully mixed with oxygen, the second step of aerobic combustion reaction is completed within one thousandth of a second.

A violent fireball appeared out of thin air, and the cave was instantly filled with hot and overpressured air.The entire cave seems to be expanding in an explosion, and its surging momentum is unstoppable, releasing its energy towards every expandable space and gap.

Surging, shaking, and loud noises, the inside of the cave turned into a high-temperature hell, and the outside of the cave was like a volcanic eruption.Countless smoke and dust rushed out, carrying a large amount of exploded rubble to overflow the valley outside the cave.

The people in the cave are dead.

'Holy Light Network' made a preview of the attack 5 minutes in advance and broadcast it live. ——The original picture on the headline of the web page was "I always like 'Guardian-1B'."

Now 'Guardian-1B' is spent with a thick red line, replaced by "I always love 'Longsword 10'."

Chapter 39

The imperial capital, a certain institution.

'Party and government' has a busy day, and in the evening, he walks a few steps under the grove outside the office, blows the cool breeze, looks at the fish in the pond, and organizes his thoughts.

The secretary and the guards followed behind, chatting with him from time to time and joking happily.

Going back in time 20 years is equivalent to restarting life again.

There have been too many changes in the turbulent 20 years. Countless sighs, experiences and lessons, and even glory and regret have flooded my heart, like the tide driven by the rising and falling of the sun and the setting of the moon.

I still remember that Xiao Jinlang came to the door and talked about the mystery that he needed help with an important matter, and the 'engagement in party and government' couldn't help laughing.At that time, I didn't say what was going on, and I couldn't say it clearly. If I said Lao Xiao, I would be obliterated.

The preparatory work before the 'backtracking' reveals a lot of information. The 'party and government' person also joked in private about what the mysterious 'summarizing the past 20 years' is going to do?

It turned out to be for change.

After the 'backtracking', those who 'engaged in the party and government' were not only surprised, but also repeatedly emphasized it in team meetings.Some detours and evil paths that I later thought were not so easy to change were all the consequences of political struggles and compromises.

Many things, 'after the fact, like a pig beforehand'.

But if it happens again, it is often "like a pig"-it seems that the disintegration of the Soviet Union did not have the root cause of Gorbachev, but planted hidden worries during Stalin's period.

But Stalin also faced many internal and external troubles, and many decisions were unavoidable.Most things in the world are not math problems, and there is no optimal solution.

but……

There is Zhou Qingfeng in the team, this barbarian took an iron hammer and smashed some key 'nodes' that hindered the overall development.Although the process was thrilling, the result was great.

Let the 'party and government' have a huge space to play.

It's like the original thatched hut is dilapidated, and anyone who repairs it can only be a "papermaker" who moves the doors, windows and walls, and dare not move the main beam of the house.

If it moves, many people in the house will be crushed to death.

Zhou Qingfeng first built a simple house outside, then forced the people in the hut to escape, and removed the main beam at random.

The collapsed huts indeed crushed to death many vested interests who were reluctant to let go.But a simple house can be upgraded to a villa, and a hut can only be a hut.

The thatched huts were demolished, many constraints were reduced, and the space for construction and upgrading was wider.

Those who are "involved in the party and government" are equivalent to being 20 years younger. They wake up every day in an uplifted mood.

After walking around in the woods, and then returning to the office, the big secretary came over and whispered, "Leader, there's something new on 'Holy Light Network'."

'Holy Light Net' is a bold attempt in public opinion propaganda.

At the beginning of the new century, public intellectuals in China were too rampant, with rumors and slanders flying everywhere, without shame.There are double-faced people everywhere, and the party and government discipline and social atmosphere have been messed up.

In addition to internal governance, there must be a public opinion platform to set things right.Otherwise, the outflow of talents, resources, and wealth will cause the country to develop into a "wedding dress" for the Western world.

'Holy Light Network' wants to expand its influence, the entry point is international politics and economics, and the subdivision is military.Propagating "the actual combat effect of exporting weapons" has indeed played a great role in boosting morale.

Projected in the office after the secretary reminded. The "party and government" people are very interested to see what new tricks Zhou Qingfeng has come up with, and learn about public opinion by the way.

Compared with the netizens watching the excitement, the 'engagement party and government' understands the reasons behind the incident better.

Zhou Qingfeng deliberately threw all kinds of unfinished weapons and equipment to Central Asia for display.This is not just to kill a few clowns, nor is it to create news for the domestic audience, but it is also a strategic deterrent.

The maximum range of the ultra-long-range rocket launcher is more than 300 kilometers, and laser guidance can ensure that the landing point is still very accurate.The use of this equipment in Afghanistan is already overkill.

This time, it is a cruise missile with a range of [-] kilometers, which means that the entire Central Asia is within its attack range.

Whether it is the US military base in Pakistan, or the core provinces in northern India, or the broken copper and iron in Iran, or even the oil tankers cruising in the Persian Gulf, no one can escape.

Appropriate displays of force can greatly enhance a country's right to speak in international affairs.

The 'Holy Light Network' made a notice 5 minutes before the attack was launched - in the hangar of the 'Joint Base' in Kunduz, the colored striped cloth covering the equipment vehicles was pulled away, revealing the triple launch boxes on the vehicle.

The popularity of public opinion was like a raging fire cooking oil, full of heat.

The social news of 'Holy Light Net' is sharp and pungent, the economic news is deeply excavated, and the scientific and technological news keeps breaking the news.Zhou Qingfeng doesn't care who he offends, and he doesn't shy away from any issues at home and abroad, and the accumulated public trust is increasing day by day.

The previous report on 'Guardian-1B', the military section of 'Shengguang.com' has attracted the attention of many military fans.As soon as the preview came out, the trend of calling friends and friends spread on the Internet.

The website learned how to behave, and the server bandwidth was increased tenfold to meet the surging page requests.But the maintenance staff in the background looked at the ever-increasing number of hits, and they were all terrified, for fear that it would shut down again.

Fortunately, now they are all 56K "cat" dial-up Internet access, and it will not go anywhere sooner.Coupled with the fact that 'Shengguang.com' has mirror servers in many places in China, it should be able to alleviate part of the traffic.

but……

"Oops, our main server in the imperial capital crashed first!"

There are many students in the imperial capital, and there are also many bureaucrats who are concerned about the situation in Central Asia.As soon as news of the preview spread, page requests poured out like a tsunami.

The line of 'engaging in party and government' is good, so it doesn't affect it.On the projection screen in his office, the launch vehicle drove out of the hangar and entered the position, and the triple box was slowly lifted up, aiming at the south.

Although the network card, but there are still many people connected to the server.The moment the equipment was unveiled, hundreds of new comments could be refreshed every second in the comment area under the page.

"Fuck, what is this?"

"Could it be a new rocket?"

"The picture on the page has been updated. What is 'Long Sword 10'?"

"This broken website has 'Guardian-1B' crossed out, how dare they do that?"

"Stupid, this shows that the new thing is not a rocket, it must be more powerful."

"Judging from the size of the launch box, this thing is longer and thicker than the 'Guardian-1B', and it must have a longer range."

"Attention, this is a fully synchronized actual combat preview. The video we watched was broadcast back via satellite, and it is likely to be what is happening."

"My God, the background is similar to the last rocket launch, also in Central Asia. Are we seeing the course of history?"

5 minutes, whether it is long or not, whether it is short or not.The audience didn't wait long, and the official website gave an answer:

"In the past two months, the extremist organization 'Taliban' has continued to carry out appalling terrorist attacks in Afghanistan and Pakistan, causing a large number of casualties of innocent people.

This time, the Afghan 'Northern Alliance' found the location of the enemy leader with the assistance of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, and will conduct a long-distance 'beheading operation' to severely punish the 'Taliban'. "

The recent situation in Central Asia has been a hot topic in the world. A series of terrorist attacks by the 'Taliban' triggered collective condemnation from both Eastern and Western media.

What is this now?

"Whoever commits a strong man will be punished even if he is far away?" '

As soon as the news came out, let alone domestic public opinion, the international community also reacted strongly.Even the CIA was inexplicably surprised, who would be unlucky?

Five minutes later, the tail of the triple launch box emitted dazzling flames, and a long missile broke out of the box. The wings behind the missile body spread out and flew quickly into the distance.

But it didn't fly high into the sky like a rocket, but stayed a few hundred meters above the ground until it disappeared.

After one shot was fired, the second shot was fired several minutes later, and the third shot was not fired at all and remained in the launch box.But at this moment, the picture sent back by the frontline reporter turned into a map of Central Asia.

On the map screen, a light spot starting from Kunduz is constantly heading south.It is conceivable that the missile it represents is speeding among the canyons and steep mountains thousands of meters above sea level in the Hindu Kush.
