251: Chapter 251 Objective: Take Over the Northern Oil Field

"What terms! Strategist, just name them!"

General Sam gave a wry smile and quickly agreed.

How could he not agree!

The armies of the Pretty Country had already reached their doorstep. If they didn't secure enough equipment from Lin Heng, they risked extermination!

On the surface, they might appear imposing, occupying all of South Africa.

However, in reality... in terms of military readiness, they were far from a match for the Pretty Country's army!

If it weren't for Lin Heng's continuous assistance, winning this war would have been difficult.

Furthermore, he hadn't even had the chance to establish himself beyond a minor tribe; everything still required Lin Heng's support.

This was precisely why, when Lin Heng had fallen out with him previously, General Sam hadn't dared to utter a single word.

Could he dare to speak up?

No!

Unless he wanted to revert to being that small, primitive tribal chief, the kind whose tribe only possessed a few spears...

At this moment, Lin Heng merely offered a slight smile and held up one finger.

General Sam immediately became completely focused, wearing a look of utter seriousness.

Clearly, he placed Lin Heng's needs above everything else!

Then, Lin Heng spoke plainly:

"It's very simple. There is a large oil field to the north, and I want that as well."

Ah!?

General Sam was stunned when he heard this.

Good heavens...

One large oil field wasn't enough; Lin Heng actually wanted another one??

As everyone knew, there was a massive oil belt circling Central Africa, holding substantial energy reserves estimated to be enough to supply the entire world for several years!

Whoever controlled that huge oil belt could immediately become the richest entity internationally!

Not necessarily reaching the level of someone like Bill Gates, but comparable to the Saudi royal family...

However, the significance of oil fields differed for various people. For Lin Heng, it was merely a few more assets in his accounts.

But for others, this represented staggering wealth...

Take Chen Sheng and the others from before; even receiving just one-tenth of Lin Heng's oil made them feel they had acquired immense fortune.

It goes without saying for everyone else...

And for General Sam, that oil field was just that—an oil field.

They couldn't extract it themselves. Although it held great potential significance for the future, right now they couldn't even withstand the Pretty Country's army, let alone possess these oil fields...

The most crucial point was this!

This oil field didn't belong to them currently; it belonged to a large tribe in North Africa that was controlled by the Pretty Country's army.

This was what made General Sam hesitate.

Naturally, they couldn't just hand that oil field over to Lin Heng.

After all, they would have to snatch it from someone else's hands.

At this moment...

General Sam swallowed nervously and hesitated, unwilling to mention the oil field.

Seeing this, Lin Heng quickly snorted.

"Of course... I'm not asking you to directly snatch this oil field and give it to me. Instead, we will take it down from that large tribe together! We will develop and use it jointly!"

The next phase was going to be a period of great productivity development for Africa. Although Lin Heng had some selfish motives, he was quite generous to his brothers in Africa.

He couldn't let them remain in the era of slash-and-burn agriculture forever.

It was already decades into the 21st century; technology that needed support should be supported.

Upon hearing Lin Heng's words, General Sam's heart stirred slightly.

A smile quickly spread across his face.

Good heavens!

He had initially worried about how to snatch the great oil field from that large tribe and present it to Lin Heng.

He never expected the other party to immediately offer to solve his problems by proactively attacking a huge tribe in North Africa supported by the Pretty Country!

How could General Sam possibly refuse this matter?

He immediately burst into loud laughter.

"Good, good, good...!"

"I never realized Strategist considered things so comprehensively! Truly, my vision was too narrow. If I had known this day would come, how could I have hesitated?"

"Strategist, please rest assured. We will provide all people and weapons at the first possible moment!"

General Sam had long coveted that fertile land.

Although the cultivation methods Lin Heng taught them for the plantations were excellent, establishing forests took several years, which was far slower than directly seizing land...

That place was an oasis they already occupied!

What one cultivates oneself is never as good as what one already possesses!

There's a saying: one doesn't fear thieves if no one covets it!

Honestly, General Sam had coveted that area for a long time.

Now that he heard Lin Heng wanted to take them down, General Sam naturally supported it wholeheartedly.

General Sam quickly rubbed his hands together, a slightly cunning smile appearing on his face.

"Strategist... When do we set off?"

When Lin Heng heard this, he waved his hand lightly.

"No rush. We leave whenever you are ready."

However, General Sam became visibly excited.

Lin Heng's meaning was that they could leave at any moment!

Good heavens!

General Sam's face instantly flushed red with excitement, and he immediately pounded his chest.

"Strategist, rest assured! We can be ready within twenty minutes!"

"I only hope that Strategist can handle the affairs within our tribe by then, so we can ensure the safety of our base camp while attacking the enemy."

"This way, we can fight without any worries."

General Sam was extremely agitated, pacing back and forth anxiously.

If possible, he would charge out right now.

Lin Heng just waved his hand, "Don't worry. I have already accounted for this matter and distributed the orders. You just need to gather your men now."

"The sooner we go, the sooner we return."

"Hahaha... Excellent!"

General Sam heard this and let out a hearty laugh.

He slapped his hands together forcefully, then quickly turned and left.

Along the way, he kept thinking.

The Strategist is truly the best; he plans everything perfectly from the start, allowing us to directly seize that tribe...

But...

Soon, General Sam's thoughts suddenly felt slightly off.

Wait!

As General Sam walked, he suddenly froze.

Lin Heng's handling was so perfect... practically flawless! Could it be that...

The Strategist wanted to attack that place from the very beginning!?

At that moment, General Sam happened to see Chen Sheng's men cheerfully developing the oil field, fully engaged in their work.

Upon realizing this possibility, General Sam's expression quickly turned strange.
