    Lin Rui was a little confused about the merchants Angel mentioned.

    Angel explained to him clearly, "Here's the thing. Glencore, the world's largest commodity trader, has always taken risks in politically unstable countries to make a fortune. Recently, Glencore reached an agreement with the Libyan state-owned oil company.

    Glencore will assist Libya in exporting crude oil to solve the war and security problems faced by traders and oil companies due to importing local crude oil.  The daily output of crude oil is 150,000 barrels, accounting for nearly half of Libya's daily crude oil output.

    So this Glencore company has enough power to influence the Libyan Government of National Accord on the opening of this oil pipeline.  "

    Lin Rui frowned and said, "Can a company really have such a big influence?"

    "It depends on what kind of company it is. Glencore started out in oil trading. Its founder, Mark Ritchie, is known as the King of Oil and the founder of the crude oil spot trading market. He once started from South Africa during apartheid and was  The United States has taken risks to find business opportunities in Iran, the former Soviet Union, and Iraq, which have blocked oil embargoes.

    This is a very powerful company and can be said to be one of the main financial backers of the current Libyan Government of National Accord.  They can do things that others cannot do.  What's more, they have an agreement with the Libyan Government of National Accord.  "Angel explained.

    "If that's the case, that means we have to find Glencore to settle the matter." Lin Rui frowned.

    "Actually Silver Wolf and I have talked with the head of Glencore. Do you know why Silver Wolf didn't come to this negotiation? Because he is now in Tripoli, Libya's National Oil Company, meeting with representatives of Glencore  ." Angel replied.

    "So, what does Glencore say?" Lin Rui asked.

    Angel smiled and said, "He needs us to help them solve a problem. Don't look at this Glencore bullshit, but there are also things they can't solve.

    You should know that the person they can cooperate with is the Libyan Government of National Accord.  Multinational oil companies and the international community fully support Libyan oil companies.  Glencore cooperated with Libya's state-owned oil company in September this year to use tankers to export oil from the port of Massahariga.

    But their behavior angered the Libyan National Army. After all, the two sides were at war.  They were so annoyed by Glencore's blatant support for their enemies that they threatened to block Glencore's oil tankers.  "

    "It's really a mess." Lin Rui shook his head, "What does Glencore mean, let us solve this problem? Do we have to fight the Libyan National Army for them for an oil pipeline?"

    "That's not true. The Libyan National Army's desire to seize their oil tanker is just a threat." Angel explained.  ¡°However, as the war continues to spread, equipment in the Libyan oil industry has been looted, and oil export capabilities have begun to be seriously affected.

    The Al-Sdar Airport and Terminal, originally used by the oil industry, have now been occupied by the Libyan National Army, and the plundered ships will also be used for military purposes.  This worried Glencore, so they asked us to help retake Starr Airport.

    ¡°As long as recapturing Star Airport can ensure the normal transportation of oil in Libya, they will try to help us open that oil pipeline.  "

    "Recapture an airport controlled by the Libyan National Army? What's the difference between that and fighting for the Libyan Government of National Unity?" Lin Rui shook his head and said, "If this matter is not handled well, it will drag us into a chaos of fighting between the two sides."

    "I think so too, but my opinion is that if we handle it properly, there may not be no chance." Angel replied.

    "Oh? Why?" Lin Rui frowned.

    ¡°According to our intelligence, the militants currently occupying Star Airport are not the real Libyan National Army. They are a group of Russian mercenaries.

    This group of Russian mercenaries were hired by Haftar, the leader of the Libyan National Army.  But recently they had some conflicts with their employer and were entrenched in that airport.

    ¡°So what I¡¯m saying is, maybe we can talk to them.  I know you were the head of the company's Russian division.  The current Russian branch is also very influential in Russia.

    ¡°Perhaps we can try to have a conversation with these Russian mercenaries and convince them to give up there.  If we can't reach an agreement, even if we kill them and seize the airport, it won't have much impact.

    Haftar doesn¡¯t care about these mercenaries because these Russian mercenaries are not very obedient.  And he cared more about capturing Tripoli than an inconsequential transport airport.

    Because it is just a small airport, mainly for Shi??Transportation services, transportation related accessories and materials.  It has no strategic significance.  "Angel emphasized.

    "If that's the case, we can give it a try. How many Russian mercenaries are there?" Lin Rui asked.

    ¡°The number of these Russian mercenaries is not very large. They were originally hired by Haftar to attack Tripoli.

    But perhaps due to remuneration or other issues, this time there was a disagreement between the Russian mercenary squad and the employer and they refused to execute the order.  So it is currently entrenched at that airport.

    I guess they just want to keep doing it, blackmail Glencore, and then leave.  The best number of people is not very large, only about twenty or thirty people.  "Angel replied.

    "Just a few people? Then why doesn't the Libyan Government of National Unity take action?" Lin Rui frowned.

    ¡°Because the Libyan National Unity Government forces are currently at war with the Libyan National Army, the war situation is stalemate, and they themselves are also in dire straits.

    Besides, the other party is a mercenary after all.  People from the Libyan Government of National Accord are unwilling to fight these mercenaries.

    That means they have to make certain sacrifices to fight for a small airport with no strategic significance.  "

    Lin Rui nodded, "This is in line with their thoughts. The Libyan coalition forces have already arrived at the city, so naturally they can't care about these small things."

    "So this matter will be left to you. What I mean is that if it can be resolved through negotiation, there will be no need to use force. But if the negotiation cannot be resolved, we must not be soft.

    Our Black Island Military Company¡¯s signboard in Africa is stained with countless blood.  Nothing can be lost in the hands of these Russian mercenaries.  "Angel looked at Lin Rui and said.

    "I can take on this mission, but I also need further information. I can't lead my brothers into the war zone without knowing anything." Lin Rui thought for a while and replied.
