    "Of course I know it's not easy, and this stall can't be put down just because we want to. Fortunately, Africa is big enough, and we don't have to compete with organizations like the Secret Society." Silver Wolf Michelle looked at Lin Rui and said.

    Lin Rui looked at him strangely and said, "You mean, we try to avoid them? But in fact, it's not that we want to compete with them, but that there is a natural conflict of interest between our customer groups and them. Those  Most of the small African countries that the secret society covets have contracts with us. These contracts tie our interests to theirs, and we both lose."

    "I know, that's why we work so hard to maintain it." Silver Wolf smiled bitterly, "But these customers of ours are simply idiots."

    "What's wrong?" Lin Rui frowned.

    "Do you remember Western Sahara?" Silver Wolf looked at Lin Rui and said.

    "Remember." Lin Rui nodded.

    ¡°This Western Sahara region has puzzled many people. Everyone can¡¯t tell what kind of identity it has. It is neither a country nor a colony.  This is the Western Sahara region on the west coast of the African continent, which is still a "disputed area".  Since Western Sahara is basically covered by the Sahara Desert, the local population is very small and concentrated in only a few small cities.

    Due to its characteristics of being "rich in resources but lacking in population", the Sahara Desert's destiny is often dominated by powerful countries on the edge of the desert or outside, whether it is from the Maghreb in the north, the Niger River Basin in the south, or across the sea.  of Europe.  Morocco, which is close to Western Sahara, regards it as its own sphere of influence.  But in fact this place is a real no-man's land.

    Lin Rui frowned and said, "We also seem to have a contract with the Western Sahara People's Liberation Front, which seems to provide them with military assistance to fight against foreign invasion."

    Silver Wolf got up and paced, "The Polisario Front is a political and military organization committed to fighting for the independence of Western Sahara. The Front is an observer of Social International.

    The Polisario Front was officially established on May 10, 1973, with the goal of resisting Spanish control of Western Sahara.  On May 20, the Polisario Front fired the first shot against the Spanish army.  By 1975, the Polisario Front had approximately 800 armed personnel, making it the largest armed resistance organization in Western Sahara.

    On November 6, 1975, Morocco launched a green march, forcing Spain to come to the negotiating table.  On November 14, Spain, Morocco and Mauritania signed the Madrid Agreement, committing to evacuate all Western Sahara early the next year and hand over the northern Sakiya Amra region to Morocco and the southern Rio de Oro region to  mauritania.  But the agreement was opposed by Algeria, another neighbor of Western Sahara.

    With the support of Algeria, the Polisario Front declared the establishment of the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic on February 27, 1976, the day after Spain completed its withdrawal. It went to war with Morocco and Mauritania, and its armed forces also developed.  to thousands of people.

    In 1978, the Mauritanian government collapsed under the weight of the war. The new regime signed a peace treaty with the Polisario Front the following year, renounced its territorial claims to the Rio de Oro region, and recognized the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic's claims to the region.  Control.  However, King Hassan II of Morocco immediately announced the annexation of the areas abandoned by Mauritania and sent Moroccan troops to occupy them.

    In the mid-1980s, Morocco built a long Moroccan wall in Western Sahara to surround the entire economically significant area of ??Western Sahara, thus forming a stalemate in Western Sahara with the Polisario Front. The Polisario Front  They controlled the desolate area east of the long wall, accounting for about one-third of Western Sahara, and established some refugee camps with a population of about 150,000, but were unable to achieve greater results.

    The current situation is a stalemate.  In 1991, the United Nations Security Council passed Resolution 690, deciding to establish the United Nations Mission for the Referendum in Western Sahara (minurso) to implement a referendum in Western Sahara to determine the political status of the region. In September, Morocco and the Polisario Front  A ceasefire was declared.  However, the referendum was never held due to disputes over issues such as voter qualifications.  "

    "What do you mean by this?" Lin Rui frowned.

    "Black Panther Gu Lei is there." Silver Wolf turned around and said.

    "What is he doing there?" Lin Rui was a little surprised.

    "Actually, it's not what he was doing there, but that he was caught in Western Sahara." Silver Wolf said with some annoyance, "He was caught by people from the Polisario Front."

    "But aren't they our customers? Why did they capture Black Panther Gu Lei?" Lin Rui said in surprise.

    "We signed a contract with them to protect them from further infringement. But these guys are obviously confused."After having a stable life for a few years, he was ready to make a move again.  "Silver Wolf sighed.

    Lin Rui frowned and said, "What do they want? Do they want to go to war with Morocco again?"

    "They didn't attack the Moroccans. They attacked Mauritania." Silver Wolf nodded.  ¡°After Spanish troops withdrew from Western Sahara in 1976, Morocco and Mauritania immediately signed an agreement to divide Western Sahara. Morocco occupied 160,000 square kilometers in the north and Mauritania occupied 90,000 square kilometers in the south.

    But Algeria does not want neighboring Morocco to expand further to the south. The two most populous countries continue to compete for the sphere of influence in the southern Sahara Desert.  Algeria naturally wants to support the local forces in Western Sahara, namely the Front for Western Sahara, against Morocco.

    On February 27, 1976, Algeria supported the Western Sahrawi Front and announced the establishment of the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic, referred to as the "Western Sahara".  On the day the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic was founded, it was first recognized by Algeria.  Subsequently, Algeria provided them with weapons and equipment, and used the Tindouf area near the border as a guerrilla base and a refugee camp in Western Sahara.  And expressed its willingness to provide Western Sahara with the political, moral and material support needed to realize the national aspirations of its people.

    Later, Libya also promised to provide US$200 million to the Polisario Front to purchase weapons and equipment, and to jointly support the Western Sahara independence movement with Algeria.  The armed forces of the Polisario Front began to equip armored vehicles, heavy artillery, rocket launchers, missiles and relatively complete communication tools.  Armed conflicts continue between Morocco, Mauritania and the PFLP.

    Recently, the Polisario Front attacked the Zouerat iron mine in Mauritania, destroying the railway line from the mine to the seaport of Nouadhibou, severely damaging Mauritania's economic lifeline.  The only railway in Mauritania is to transport the inland Zouerat iron ore resources to the port and export them to European and American countries. This is the mainstay of their economy.  The railway was destroyed and the losses were heavy.  So Mauritania offered to negotiate.

    Since we have contracts with both parties, Black Panther Gulei went to mediate.  But he was detained by the Polisario Front.  "
