Chapter 452 Opportunity
A civilian helicopter was hovering over the rainforest with an AFP reporter in it, urging the photographer to aim at the fighter planes flying across the sky.
The cabin door was opened, letting the strong wind from outside in with the roar of the propellers, but the reporter leaned out of the cabin with almost half of his body, pointing at the plane flying in the sky.
"As you can see, the aircraft that just flew over was the Rafale, the world's top fighter jet independently developed by Gaul!"
The AFP reporter said with excitement and pride on his face that his hair and clothes were swaying rhythmically in the strong wind.
Theoretically, there are only a few countries that can independently produce fighter jets of this level, and Gaul is one of them!
And they have always believed that Rafale is the best fighter jet second only to the F-22.
Especially recently, a local rich man in one of the major countries in the East is willing to purchase a batch of new-generation fighter jets. This has made Gaul also eye the major country that is willing to spend a lot of money to buy weapons.
In the past, the opponent preferred the weapons and aircraft of the Russian Bear. This time, they intend to make a change . Gaul also has some big ideas and is even determined to win.
And what can compare to the performance in actual combat?
Umbrella makes even Da Piaoliang quite afraid!
But it was our gusts of wind that made the opponent dare not show up and we firmly controlled the air supremacy.
Then, in front of the live camera, the AFP reporter continued
"Now our ground troops have approached the rain forest. The purpose of this special military operation is not to attack Umbrella members, but only to stop their illegal mining and expel them. Therefore, we accept surrender..."
At this point, his tone paused again.
"Everyone can see that we have firmly grasped air superiority. The reason why we are not launching an attack now is out of humanitarianism and we do not want to destroy the rainforest. If Umbrella persists in its wrongdoings, it will be responsible for all the consequences."
When the AFP reporter said this, he quickly added:
"However, our special operation this time is only aimed at Umbrella's illegal mining activities and will not expand the attack surface."
But this additional sentence made many viewers around the world laugh out loud.
"As expected of Gaul!"
"Haha, you're afraid of Umbrella's retaliation in other ways, but you say it so refreshingly."
"You said you were the one who hit me, and you said you were also the one who controlled the area? Why?"
"But to be honest, this time it was indeed a fight over mineral resources. It was Umbrella that took the initiative to seize the mineral resources."
"But what was seized was not Gaul's. Or is there some unspeakable secret between Gaul and that mysterious organization?"
"Congo has said that they can decide for themselves."
"However, Umbrella is indeed at a disadvantage this time. The size gap is too big."
"indeed……"
“…”
People's views on this incident are somewhat different from the last time .
Last time, with the attention Haizai received, what the extreme environmental organization had done was exposed, and it was obvious that all the previous grievances were on Umbrella's side.
Including the subsequent annihilation of the Kangaroo Navy, which was just a way to vent anger, so even though such a thing happened, not many civil groups issued any protest slogans.
Well, of course, it also has something to do with the fact that those groups that receive money dare not take action. Did you see what happened to that extreme environmental protection organization?
Umbrella really will open fire...
Some of the concerns voiced on the Internet now are just about the worry that Umbrella will become the kind of super corporation in some games and movies.
And in fact, it already looks like that now!
With its own armed forces and superb technology, it has begun to infiltrate products in all walks of life.
Maybe they have relatively few products of their own, but each of them is top-notch in the industry!
Moreover, because they possess unique technologies, even many products they are not involved in still have a lot of patent and technology licensing fees.
Being able to impose reverse sanctions on Da Piaoliang, one can imagine its technical confidence.
However, Umbrella has always behaved in a more disciplined manner, rarely taking the initiative to cause trouble, and most of the time it has been defensive and counterattacking.
Although the counterattack may be more severe and directly cripple the person.
However, it is still easy to be recognized if self-defense goes too far, and most people will not think it is excessive.
But this time, it was Umbrella that took the initiative to invade an African sovereign country and occupied a mining area.
Yes, they were tracking people from a mysterious organization and drove them away, but it is undeniable that this place still belongs to the Democratic Republic of the Congo!
So this time, it can be said that neither Umbrella nor Gaul has any moral advantage.
To put it bluntly, they are two guys who rely on force to dominate and are fighting for other people's things on other people's land.
But this is the reality of the world, the weak have no say.
It’s been robbed, so what can you do?
Da Piaoliang has been occupying other people's oil fields. What's wrong with stealing oil openly?
Apart from the occasional report from Rabbit, will anyone take a look?
The earthquake victims waited until the golden rescue period to lift the blockade and sanctions. How many people chose to ignore this cold-blooded and cruel behavior?
The world of the jungle has never changed.
But at least in terms of attitude towards the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Umbrella is much better than Gaul. Although it has hinted that it will occupy it by force even if it is not allowed, everything else is negotiable.
Gaul's previous condescending remarks elicited a direct response from the Congolese leader, which made many people feel relieved.
The reporter who was broadcasting live was unaware of the ridicule on the Internet, and he did not expect that just by adding one sentence, the sharp-eyed netizens would find the highlight.
At this time, I am still confidently explaining the current situation.
"This time, in addition to the air force's cover, the first ground force we dispatched was the famous Foreign Legion, with a total of 5,000 people. At present, Umbrella has personnel arranged by Penglai and Mexico, as well as those who are carrying out missions. It is estimated that the maximum number of mobile forces that can be freed up is 200."
I have to say that in terms of the intelligence system, NATO is really precise.
They are not as omnipresent as Lin Shiqin, but they have more ways, more channels, and more manpower!
So even in the case of Umbrella, they were able to make a rough estimate and survey, and the estimate was quite accurate.
However, at this moment, the helicopter that arrived at the edge of the rainforest first made a surprising discovery: two fully armed Umbrella special forces soldiers walked out of the rainforest.
Originally, they kept calling for surrender, which was to create psychological pressure and at the same time demonstrate their own justice.
Given Umbrella's stubborn nature, it is likely to be useless and they still have to fight.
Are the two people coming out now unable to withstand the pressure and are going to surrender?
"Quick, give it a close-up!"
The reporter hurriedly urged the cameraman, and then immediately used the top-level camera with Umbrella technology to zoom in and see the full body details of the two special forces soldiers.
I didn’t feel anything when I saw it from a distance before, but now that I’ve taken a closer look, I’m suddenly shocked.
Umbrella had previously used an exoskeleton device to attack the castle, and the video was even broadcast.
But their exoskeletons weren’t like this back then, right?!
The two people who came out were wrapped from head to toe in what seemed like an integrated combat suit, with a very cool helmet on their head and a dark eye mask on the front, so their faces and expressions could not be seen at all.
The surface of this pitch-black combat suit has some obvious metal lines, which is very similar to the exoskeleton before.
But this time, it has been completely integrated into the combat uniform.
This means that their materials seem to have made another breakthrough, which can ensure the "softness" of this material.
All I can say is that after a close-up, Umbrella's combat uniform is full of a sense of technology from science fiction movies.
Just standing here, one can feel the strength of their fighting power.
The two men obviously saw the helicopter, but because it was a civilian plane, they had no intention of attacking and just waved in this direction.
This made the AFP reporter extremely excited, and he hurried over.
He could imagine the effect of being able to interview Umbrella's people face to face and having such cool equipment.
Soon, I will become a famous reporter! !
The helicopter arrived in the air, and the strong airflow from the propeller blew the surrounding bushes, making rustling sounds and raising dust.
But in the flying dust, the two Umbrella warriors did not move at all, just waited quietly for the helicopter to land.
Watching the reporters and cameramen carrying cameras running over quickly.
"Excuse me, what do you two want to do this time? If you are willing to lay down your weapons, we will give you due preferential treatment."
The reporter spoke loudly into the microphone excitedly, drowning out the sound of the helicopter.
"We came out here just to make a statement."
One of the special forces members glanced at the reporter indifferently and spoke in a calm tone.
"First, we don't want to destroy the rain forest, so we will come out to fight."
As he spoke, he also stretched out his finger.
"Second, we now regard your actions as hostile, so we may open fire first."
"Third...if you want to surrender, please do it as soon as possible. Otherwise, we may not allow you to have the opportunity to display your traditional skills."
Three points in a row, every hit is a critical hit.
Especially the last sentence, which directly mocks Gaul's pain point!
This stunned the reporters who wanted to film the surrender, while the audience in front of the live broadcast all laughed their asses off...
