Chapter 1520 A heavy burden
Fan Jianming just hung up Elena's phone number, and Aruga, the highest commander of S Country, called him.
"My commander-in-chief of the Army, Navy and Air Force," Aruga asked, "Why did you have no news when you go back? It was agreed that at most one month, and he also said that even if he was going home to hold a wedding, he would put the wedding in S country?"
Fan Jianming smiled and said, "Sir, do we have warships and aircraft? It seems that there is only an army?"
"With my temper, I don't even want the army. I will return to the tribe to be the chief. You said that you want to build a strong air force and navy, and you also want to build the industry and technology of S country. I can wait for you to come back to fulfill your promise."
Fan Jianming explained: "I'm sorry, because there are too many things at home, and I went to the West some time ago, so..."
Aruga seemed very surprised and asked, "Why, you really have arrived in the West?"
"What's wrong?"
"Today, Sofia, the stationmaster of the W-National Workstation in Xiqing District, and the Western soldier Pierce, came to our country to meet me with the police director of the W-National Police and said that you have reached an agreement with the West and they want to establish a military base in our country."
Fan Jianming was stunned: "Did they say that to you?"
"I didn't say it directly, but that's what it means. Sophia said that in Country W not long ago, they cooperated with you to arrest a red-talk, and your relationship with their current national minister is not ordinary."
"Even repeatedly stated that as long as you ensure your interests in our country, you can do everything possible to cooperate with them."
"Sir," Fan Jianming explained: "One thing you should know is that I, Fan Jianming, are definitely not the kind of person who sells the owner and seeks honor..."
"Van," Aruga immediately interrupted him: "Even if you cooperate with the West, there is no seller asking for honor. I am not your master, we are friends. And I have always told you that S country is not mine, it is ours."
"If you don't return, I will return to the tribe to be the chief. As for the West, or the warlords who were driven away by us in the past, it is their business to come back, and I am not interested..."
Fan Jianming quickly said, "Sir..."
"Wait for me to finish," Aruga continued: "My ability, my interests, just want to protect the interests of my tribe and the personal safety of the personnel. S country is really too big, and I can't control it."
Fan Jianming shook his head and thought to himself: What is the National University of S? At best, only the area of two small provinces in the East is a combined area, and most of it is a desert.
Just a little big place, except for the capital, it also looks like an oriental county-level city, and everything else is similar to the townships in the east. What's wrong with it?
"Okay, okay, sir, I correct my mistake just now." Fan Jianming said: "If I don't say that the seller wants to be honored, at least I will not do anything about selling friends wants to be honored. If I really want to use the interests of S country and talk about the conditions with the West, I will ask you for instructions in advance."
"Even if there is any special reason, I don't have time to ask you for instructions, and I will report to you in full swing. Therefore, I, Fan Jianming, will not make decisions without authorization when it comes to the interests of Country S."
Aruga nodded: "Of course I believe everything you said, but I still want to tell you that you should come back quickly. Even if you can't come back, you have to let Wellington come back."
"When you were there, you were a good player in the high school and could also serve as a counselor for you. If you left, he was a waste of man and let me decide everything."
"The question is that I have the ability to make decisions, so what else do I have to do?"
Fan Jianming said: "Sir, don't worry, I will go back soon."
"What is the concept soon?" Aruga said: "The civil war in N countries has broken out, and their supreme officials have requested to send troops to our country and W countries to reinforce."
"Although the country W is closer to the West, we respect our country's opinions very much on whether to send troops and whether to support the West. Of course, I also know that they are mainly afraid of you."
"The problem now is that N countries ask for our support, but the West wants to use our country to build military bases and attack N countries head-on. If you don't come back, our three countries may fall into chaos. You understand the penetration of Westerners better than me."
"Sir," Fan Jianming said: "To be honest, I just saw the news of the civil war on TV, and the Western government just called me and said I wanted to discuss the matters of S country with me."
"I have promised to meet them and am about to talk to you, but I didn't expect you to call me. Now I would like to ask, what is the maximum limit for the conditions you have put forward to the West?"
Aruga said: "Fan, you don't have to take into account my feelings. I have already expressed my opinion to you. If it really doesn't work, I can go back to the tribe and become a chief. In other words, the negotiations with the West are based on the minimum conditions you can accept. I will support you unconditionally if you make any choice."
Aruga is by no means an ordinary person. Although S country is not large in size, it is full of tribes and chiefs. Among the many chiefs, only he supported Fan Jianming at all costs, and finally drove out all the mercenaries and warlords.
He was a self-aware person and knew very well that if Fan Jianming had not been granted the reputation he had established in the civil war, with his and his tribe, not to mention facing Western mercenaries, or facing the counterattack of those warlords, he would probably not be able to hold on for a day with his own people.
It’s not that he doesn’t care about his current position, nor does he want to protect his own interests, but his level and ability are too limited. Any mercenary force can easily occupy their capital with just one charge.
Whether Aruga wants to maintain his position, to ensure the country's sovereignty, or the interests of the people, he must rely on Fan Jianming from beginning to end.
It is precisely because of this that he had to hand over the decision-making power of the entire country to Fan Jianming.
And he knew very well that in addition to his property in Country S, Fan Jianming was also a person who valued love and righteousness.
In order to drive away mercenaries and warlords, the people of S country made great sacrifices. Fan Jianming would never let the people's blood flow in vain, nor would he betray his country and people for his own interests.
He knew very well that handing over all power to Fan Jianming would also be equivalent to putting the pressure of the entire country on Fan Jianming's shoulders. He believed that Fan Jianming would make the right choice.
Aruga made a good judgment. The more he said this, the more he felt that Fan Jianming felt that the responsibility was heavy.
Before, he wanted to find an opportunity to completely break away from his relationship with S country, because he always felt that when Aruga firmly took up the position of supreme commander, he would definitely consolidate his regime and try to weaken his influence.
