You said you were going to make games, how did you become the richest man without doing anything?

Chapter 290: Hundred Billion Subsidy and Many Honors (2 in 1 Order)

Mobutu was also moved and placed his hand on the hands of the two:

"From now on, my two brothers, you are my biological sons."

Subsequently, with the strong support of Mobutu, Gaddafi and Goukouni formed an alliance again.

With the military support from Congo, the reorganized Gaddafi army passed through Central Africa and prepared to invade the border of Chad province.

At this moment, the magician in the capital slammed the table.

"That suits me perfectly. I was worried I'd have no excuse to march into Congo.

If I can successfully conquer Congo, it will be like pulling out a huge nail in my great cause of unifying Africa!"

The magician was preparing to provide strong military support to Habré and allow him to enter Congo in the name of mediation.

As a result, a warning about the treasury deficit popped up on the game interface.

The magician carefully checked the internal affairs information interface and found that the previous continuous civil war had made the people's lives miserable and unable to engage in production with peace of mind. Military expenditures were already stretched to the limit, and the stockpiles of equipment donated by France had also been exhausted.

"What...what should I do?"

The anchor was dumbfounded.

But in fact, he knew in his heart that the most direct reason for the current situation of the game was himself.

Because his previous expansion speed was too radical, there was no time to buffer the national treasury.

In addition, the various taxes collected before were too harsh, which almost dug out the roots of the leeks, resulting in the people now being exhausted.

The barrage complained:
"What should we do? Should we withdraw from Chad Province first and then take our time?"

"But... if that's the case, all the progress we've made will be in vain. Mobutu didn't do anything, and he just got such a large piece of land for nothing. It's really unacceptable to think about it."

"Well, there are gains and losses. That's the charm of historical simulation games. Besides, true simulation game players have a rule that they can't reload save files."

At this moment, a game advertisement popped up in front of the anchor:
[Season Battle Pass: 10 Billion Subsidy and 200 Million Support Card]

【Now available, welcome to experience】

"What the hell is this?"

The magician clicked on the ad out of curiosity, only to see the following pop-up appear before his eyes:
"Soviet special-supply arms have been updated, with discounts on all categories, and the general manager's discounts continue to increase. Soviet tanks originally priced in the tens of millions are now only 998, MiG fighters are half price, and there are also free anti-aircraft missiles."

"It doesn't matter if you buy weapons but don't know how to use them. Soviet instructors will come to teach you."

"All new munitions will be taught here. There are many varieties. You can search the Soviet warehouses at will and buy with confidence."

"We'll compensate you tenfold for any damaged munitions, and we have the double guarantee of General Xun's respect."

"Let's go into Moscow and shop now."

The comment section was amused: "Oh my god, is this even possible?"

The purchase link pops up below:

[Pay 998 Taoyuan Fantasy World Activity Points to unlock the Season Battle Pass " Billion Subsidy Medals"]

[After unlocking, you can get Brezhnev's attention once more and activate diplomatic channels]

[Note: Even if you do not unlock the Season Pass, it will not affect any game progress.]

The magician searched online and found out that the so-called Taoyuan Fantasy World activity points are the points that players can get by logging in, downloading, playing, and completing achievement challenges on the Taoyuan Township game platform.

998 points, you can earn it by being active for about a week.

The barrage was happy to see this:
"Wow, I didn't expect that old fans of Taoyuan Township would have such benefits?"

"When I first saw the battle pass purchase box pop up, I thought Taoyuan Township had deteriorated and was going to start selling stats. I was superficial."

At this time, in the Taoyuan Township villa, Lu Yu, who was watching the live broadcast, was stunned.

This project team is hiding something from me and adding something new to the game.

However, when he called Mo Xiaoxuan over to ask, the other party was also confused:
"Mr. Lu, we don't have such a design, and we don't know who added the battle pass to this game."

"??????"

Lu Yu was shocked.

This is strange. The last time, "Super Time Travel Moe Girl" also had many unexpected and strange bugs. Although the final result did not affect the gaming experience, it would be very annoying if no one claimed this kind of thing.

At this time, Chu Xiong, who was watching the live broadcast, fell into deep thought.

Could it be Melissa who did this?
But... it's unlikely. He is already convinced that the other party is a weak artificial intelligence.

Anyway, find a chance to take some time to test that cyber girl again.

……

At this time, in the game, the magician spent points to activate the battle order.

Afterwards, the magician, who had unlocked his diplomatic authority, arrived in Moscow on a connecting flight and began his state visit to the Soviet Union.

Upon arrival at Moscow Airport, a group of Soviet officials were waiting beside the runway.

The magician cleared his throat and asked, "Xun... Oh no, where is my dear Comrade Brezhnev?"

A man came forward to shake hands:
"Comrade Brezhnev is currently handling routine matters in the Kremlin. Please allow me to receive you."

The translation next to it:
"This is Comrade Kuznetsov, First Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of the USSR.

Mr. President, please go to the State Guesthouse to rest first and we will meet tomorrow."

The barrage was immediately dissatisfied:
"Wow, they actually sent a deputy minister to receive the president of another country. This level is totally unequal."

"This shows that Xunzong doesn't take our Great Magic Republic seriously at all."

"There's nothing we can do. A weak country has no diplomacy, and we're here to ask for help. We can only grit our teeth and swallow our anger."

The magician laughed twice:
"Please tell Comrade Brezhnev that in recognition of his contribution to world peace, I will award him the Grand Magic Republic's highest honor, the Grand Magic Cross, in the Kremlin."

Upon hearing the word "medal," Kuznetsov perked up and nodded, saying, "Don't worry, I'll convey it to you."

The next day, Xunzong held a grand welcome ceremony for the magician on Red Square.

The graffiti-like flags of the Great Magic Republic and the Soviet Union fluttered in the wind, creating a solemn and majestic atmosphere. Red Square was covered in colorful ribbons, and pennants and banners hung on both sides, with brightly colored welcome messages outlined.

In the distance, soldiers in Soviet uniforms lined up neatly on Red Square.

The magician stood on the solemn Red Square, and the band began to play "Soviet March", which is the game music of "Red Alert 3".

The commentators laughed: "Hahahahahahahaha, so angry!"

Suddenly, a long parade convoy slowly drove over. As the convoy got closer, a tall figure came into view.

Brezhnev was wearing a military uniform with his chest covered with dazzling medals. He wore a hat and held an exquisitely carved cane. He looked solemn and majestic, with a serious face, revealing his determination and authority.

As the parade car stopped in the center of Red Square, Chairman Brezhnev got out of the car.
The magician shook hands with the other party, and the VR gloves gave him a real touch, but his attention was attracted by the other party's thick eyebrows.

The barrage is envious:
"Hahaha, shaking hands with a real historical figure, how envious!"

"Just for this reason, I have already ordered VR equipment. Taoyuan Township GKD, please produce more interesting things."

Afterwards, in full view of everyone, the magician personally pinned the "Grand Magic Cross Medal" on Xunzong.

Xunzong raised his eyebrows, nodded with satisfaction, and was about to turn around and invite the other party to get in the car.

The magician suddenly raised his hand: "Please wait a moment."

He took out a new medal from the gift box behind him.

"This is the Great Medal of Magical Valor. As the supreme commander of the world's most powerful armed forces, you deserve it."

Xunzong's brows gradually relaxed, and he allowed the magician to put the medal on him personally.

"Please wait a moment. I have prepared more medals for you."

Then, like a magic trick, the magician continued to pull out medals from the gift box:
"Great Magic Loyalty Medal"

Grand Magic Friendship Medal

"Great Magical Wisdom Medal"

"Order of the Star of Africa"

"Old Friend of the African People Medal"

Soon, Xunzong's chest was covered with medals, and he could no longer fit any more. Xunzong was smiling and nodded, saying, "Mr. President, you are so thoughtful."

The comments were amused: "Good guy, a bunch of medals can let down your guard, you are worthy of being the Lord of Honor."

The magician nodded and said, "These medals are worth only a few dollars, but some people like them."

Of course, the magician understood that these medals alone would not be enough to completely impress Xun Zong.

So, when entering the Kremlin to discuss matters, the magician said:

"Our Great Magic Republic's Chad and Libya provinces both have rich oil fields. Now that the French can no longer get their hands on them, our foreign exchange earnings are destined to increase. As time goes by, we'll be able to purchase more and more Soviet arms...

All it takes is a little help from you as our country gets started.”

Xunzong couldn't help but be moved when he heard this.

During the period of the US-Soviet rivalry, the US's minions were all blood transfusion bags, while the Soviet Union's minions were all blood-draining sinks, and each of them relied on the Soviet Union for assistance.

If the Great Magic Republic could use real money to absorb the Soviet Union's industrial production capacity, it would be better than 99% of its younger brothers.

So, Xunzong waved his hand and said: "We will provide as many MiG fighters and T-tanks as you want."

……

After the magician met with Xunzong, the Soviet Union sent a large number of transport planes to transport various weapons and equipment to Africa.

As soon as Gaddafi and Gukuni finished gathering at the border, they saw nearly 10,000 tanks of the Great Magic Army rumbling south and entering Congo.

This time, these two people were like being stabbed in the buttocks with a knife - their eyes were completely opened.

The various infantry three-three systems, infantry-tank coordination and tactical interweaving of tanks are dazzling.

The Air Force and ground forces worked closely together, and many armored units were even able to travel more than a thousand kilometers and be dropped directly behind enemy lines by transport planes.

Faced with the expected powerful magic army, Africa's neighbors were dumbfounded.
This... is this a level that the African region can match?
With the help of the Soviet Union, the magician's army captured the Congolese capital in just ten days.

The alliance between Gaddafi and the Goukuni was completely defeated, and Gaddafi went into exile in the Central African Empire and joined Bokassa.

In Mobutu's presidential palace, Gukuni, who was captured by soldiers, hugged the magician's thigh and cried bitterly:
"Dad...I am unfilial and ignorant. I know I am wrong."

Mobutu, sitting on the presidential throne, trembled with fear:
"Mr. President, this is your country's internal affairs. I will not say anything more. Please take Gukuni back home."

The magician stood with his hands behind his back, ignoring Mobutu and asking Gukuni:

"Want to live?"

Gukuni nodded repeatedly.

"If you can find a way to convince Mr. Mobutu to merge Congo with our country, I will spare you."

Mobutu: “???????”

Over the next period of time, in order to convince Mobutu physically, Gukuni continued to perform the Great Memory Restoration Technique on Mobutu.

In January 1981, Mobutu, who was beaten half to death, finally gave in.

The Great Magic Republic and Congo issued a joint announcement:
"Since ancient times, Congo has been an inseparable part of the Great Magic Republic. We have already achieved the unification of the two countries. Congo will become one of the provinces of the Great Magic Republic."

At this moment, the United States and Britain could no longer sit still.

How could a small Chad like you to be qualified to control Libya and not be satisfied with it, but to go on to annex a sovereign state?
France also stood up to express its opposition. Seeing that Chad, its former son, was gradually getting out of control, France's oil interests in Africa would not be guaranteed.

Originally, France was ready to take action, thinking of saving Congo from the magician's hands first. As a result, on the southern border, Gaddafi led the remnants and fought with Bokassa's army again.

At this time, Gaddafi, who had been completely desperate, had no scruples. He said that Bokassa had obtained the country by illegal means and had been a tyrant in Central Africa, causing public outrage and he should completely withdraw from the Central Africa.

The reason why Gaddafi had the courage to challenge when he was dependent on others was that after several rounds of fighting on the border, Gaddafi understood the fundamental reason for his continuous failures - lack of a father.

The so-called survival from a disaster must have a backer. The reason why these benevolent kings in Africa can survive to this day is only because they have a good father.

Gaddafi had no father, so he wandered all the way from Libya to Central Africa and became so destitute!

Originally he wanted to recognize Xunzong as his father, but the magician had already gotten there first, so Gaddafi planned the core goal: I have to find a new father.

At this moment, a ballad sounded in his mind: "Dad's dad is called Grandpa~"

Who is the king of all dads in the world, the dad of all dads? Of course, it’s the United States.

At this time, seeing that the magician was doing very well in Africa, America tried to make things difficult for him.

The United States sent people to contact Gaddafi, promising tens of millions of dollars in aid every year and agreeing to provide strong support in intelligence, training and other aspects.

They have only one request, to completely interrupt the magician's ambition to unify the African continent!
Of course, Bokassa should not move first, because he is also one of the sons of the American empire.

Gaddafi thought, if that was the case, he had to choose a place to stay first, after all, Bokassa could no longer accommodate him.

He soon set his sights on the southern part of Chad province, which was rich in oil and perfect for starting a business.

Then, as he approached there, he encountered the French army.

It turns out that the magician deliberately allowed the French army to remain in southern Chad in order to prevent a surprise attack from the south like Gaddafi.

Even if the French army was defeated and retreated, we could still drive the French out without bloodshed.

The commentators were shocked: "What a trick the host has used to drive the tiger to devour the wolf."

However, the French troops stationed in southern Chad did not want to get involved in the mess faced with Gaddafi's American-equipped divisions. French President Mitterrand even announced that he would withdraw his troops directly from Chad.

Afterwards, facing the steel torrent laid by the magician, Gaddafi was unsure and hastily asked the American father to send troops.

Meilingzong said: "We can ask for money, but don't even think about sending troops. Chad was once a French sphere of influence. We once again ask France to send troops and fulfill its historical responsibility."

France was not willing to send troops because Gaddafi had even promised the oil interests in the south to the Americans.

However, due to international image and face, more than 2,000 French troops were eventually sent into Chad.

The French army really doesn't want to fight, this is a pure losing business.

So the French began to play the game of peace, drawing a line on the southern border of the Great Magic Republic and declaring that any northern army that crossed the line would be attacked.

The Frenchman's hint was very clear: as long as you magicians don't come over, I won't attack you.

The two sides started a fierce sit-in war. Gaddafi did not have the courage to attack the magicians, and the magicians did not want to fight the French army.

The two sides fought directly across the border for more than a year.

At this moment, Gaddafi probably felt exhausted and took the initiative to say:

"The Grand Mage's army and our coalition forces have disengaged. The areas of actual control of both sides remain unchanged. How about we each go home?"

French President François Mitterrand thought: "Hey, don't talk about Gaddafi, don't talk about him." Although he has always been unreliable, this proposal is still quite human.

The two sides reached an agreement and withdrew their troops simultaneously.

As soon as the announcement was made, media from all over the world praised Mitterrand's diplomatic skills.

A triumphant Mitterrand personally directed the withdrawal.

Unexpectedly, a day later, the French army left Africa and found that Gaddafi had not retreated at all!
It turned out that Gaddafi planned to wait until the magician's army was halfway in retreat and then pursue them directly from the rear.

Unexpectedly, the magician had predicted his prediction and knew that his army's retreat was just a pretense.

The magician's army decisively turned around and quickly moved south, directly killing Gaddafi's army.

Gaddafi hurriedly retreated into the Central African Republic.

Originally, the magician had no pretext for entering Central Africa, but now it was just as he wished, and he entered Central Africa directly in the name of eliminating Gaddafi.

Bokassa was in great pain, but it was easier to invite a god than to send him away. The magician's army quickly captured the capital of Central Africa and used a similar large-scale memory recovery technique to force Bokassa to surrender the country's sovereignty.

After a week of live broadcasting, the young magician had transformed himself from a poor African boy into a man who had built a vast empire stretching from south to north, spanning four countries: Libya, Chad, Congo and Central Africa.

The country's vigorous development has also allowed the anchor to have an army of more than 10 people under his command.

Such strength is enough to dominate the African continent, and it is only a matter of time before the whole of Africa is unified.

……

"This game will be broadcast here for now. If you are interested, please go to the Taoyuan Township official website to make a reservation."

The host stretched and ended the broadcast amid the screen full of sounds of people lingering on the show.

But what he didn’t expect was that after this live broadcast, “Weird Small Country Simulator” unexpectedly became popular!
