Thailand's soldiers are of course much cheaper, but to maintain such a troop, corresponding basic logistical infrastructure is equally essential.
Canteens, hospitals, mental health, rehabilitation, equipment logistics...
You can't afford old America's level of electronic logistics or strategic delivery, but a basic command center and tactical vehicles are indispensable.
A squad in Seal Six Team consists of 2500 to 3000 people, but only 35 to 40 people are responsible for front-line operations.
Forget having a Seal Six Team, even a 100-man Ranger-level Special Forces need 500 to 800 professional logistics personnel to function.
Go back and check the budget, how much of what I just mentioned can you handle?"
As Mountain Eagle spoke, he looked at Taigore with a slightly disappointed expression, and jokingly said: "Don't blame me for speaking unpleasantly, actually those old 191s commanded by Supa are not too bad...
Even if you want to form a top-tier Special Forces, you don't need to spread things too thin.
In my opinion, actually 20 to 30 people would be enough!
Honestly speaking, those working Seals are few, and even if I push their wounded on wheelchairs to the training field to help, they can train at most 100 people.
That's already their limit!
Unless you can accept them cutting corners in training content..."
After hearing this, Taigore clenched his teeth and said: "Can't go lower than 100!
I've had enough of suffering from insufficient combat power. This time we must take this good opportunity to resolve the police force's lack of combat capability."
Mountain Eagle actually doesn't think that Thailand could train a Seal Six Team level squad within a year. Without enough resources and funds, even ten or twenty years of training wouldn't suffice.
This strategic level T1's personnel quality is just one aspect; what truly makes them formidable is the support from strategic logistics and intelligence systems.
Mountain Eagle's combat power has actually been amplified—if it weren't for Crow, Golden Cicada, Flexible Armor, he would only be slightly better than those Seal Six Team members.
Excluding these unavailable-on-market items, the weapons and equipment used by those Seal Six Team members are not worse than Mountain Eagle's at all.
But anyway, it's not his own money being spent...
This time, the United States is bleeding heavily, having arranged an International Defense Company to come and connect, which will provide a full set of equipment for this new batch of 191 squad soldiers as well as a tactical command system.
The other things, left to the Thais' nature, will always find a way to make do.
As long as food and medical care can keep up, the soldiers in pickups can sweep away criminals.
These are originally Thailand's finest soldiers; further improving them should barely satisfy the top brass of the police force.
Nodding indicates recognition of Taigore's ambition, Mountain Eagle quickly finished the food in his box, wiped his hands and said: "Anyway, these are your problems, I'm going to rest in Kamui for a while, also pondering those pirate issues in the Andaman Sea...
How you want to train is all up to you, I won't interfere!"
Saying this, Mountain Eagle pointed towards the direction of Sam and others, and seriously said: "Those soldiers are impressive, but what's truly impressive is their logistical system.
See that Big Beard, you need to arrange for someone to stay close and learn from them, whatever they need, try to accommodate...
They represent the most technically intensive part!"
After listening, Taigore said somewhat regretfully: "Can't you really help?
I trust your judgment, regarding the command center build-up for 191 squad, I still need your advice!"
Mountain Eagle glanced at a few military officers nearby whose eyes suddenly lit up, he smiled and shook his head, saying: "We'll see when the time comes, you still have to figure out the commander of the squad on your own, but I can help with the team selection.
I have a few friends from Signal Flag, we can find a place and let them practice together."
"With Signal Flag and Seal Six Team as filters, those top performers will quickly emerge."
Taigore figured out Mountain Eagle's stance, and with a hint of regret, he sighed and said, "I think you are the best candidate for the commander, it's a pity you..."
Mountain Eagle quickly waved his hand and said, "Are you kidding? How much does a commander of the 191st squad make a year?
I'm dealing with hundreds of thousands a minute, hundreds of people depend on me for meals, I'm too busy to lead a bunch of soldiers hanging around in training all day."
Hearing this, Taigore pulled Mountain Eagle aside...
Looking at Mountain Eagle's confused look, Taigore hesitated for a moment, then said, "I want Samantha to go to Kamui to prepare for childbirth, and to find something to do there..."
Mountain Eagle was stunned for a moment, frowning as he said, "Even if your family opposed your marriage, they shouldn't oppose you keeping a mistress..."
Taigore, with a somewhat melancholic gesture, waved his hand and said, "Samantha feels too oppressed in Bangkok...
Even though she hasn't said anything, I know she's not happy staying in Bangkok."
Then Taigore, looking at Mountain Eagle, spoke seriously, "I know the Prime Minister's Mansion gave you a large piece of land...
I know the place, it includes an undeveloped bay.
I'll invest a part, and let Samantha develop a resort there.
Kamui's tourism industry is going against the trend and rising; it definitely is a good investment."
Mountain Eagle, seeing Taigore's earnest expression, pondered slightly and nodded before saying, "Then let's do it!
In a while, I'll have a large amount of public funds, I will figure out the infrastructure, have Samantha confidently plan the resort project.
No matter how much you invest, Samantha will hold 50% of the shares!
But think about it, do you really want to tie Samantha to Kamui?"
Taigore, distressed, nodded and said, "My mother introduced me to several girls, and we both know what that means...
If I keep Samantha in Bangkok, I feel like an inhuman person..."
Upon hearing this, Mountain Eagle sighed and said, "It seems you really like Samantha...
Alright, let her come with me, out of sight, out of mind."
Then Mountain Eagle, looking at the nodding Taigore, smiled and said, "Isn't being a good man especially difficult?"
Taigore, helplessly sighed, "Indeed, it's too hard!"
Mountain Eagle, hearing this, laughed and scolded, "You're seriously confused..."
Taigore, spreading his hands, said, "You don't understand. If you saw the girls Deveka introduced me to, you'd know my life is too hard!
All I want is a pretty and virtuous girl for a wife; I'm not interested in those Harvard or Oxford graduates...
I've studied abroad too; I know what these second-generation students are up to?
Do you think an Asian girl running all the way to the United States to study Asian history can learn anything?"
Mountain Eagle, having seen such people and knowing about the so-called liberal arts in prestigious Western institutions, which are often major fronts for ideological exports...
Thinking about a Thai bureaucrat having to deal with a girl indoctrinated with democracy and freedom for years, and even marrying her...
Mountain Eagle, sympathetically shaking his head, said, "Take it easy, marriage is something you just endure and get past, haha..."
