658 Talk about the cost before dividing the spoils

"43 tanks destroyed, 17 damaged, 22 intact tanks captured, 17 armored vehicles destroyed, 43 captured? Just kidding!" Ibrahim was completely unconvinced of the results of the river crab mercenary armored unit.

Tanzanian troops still have 150 kilometers left, and the Iraqi armored contingent retreated to the border.

Relying on 11 second-hand Type 59 tanks and 11 armored vehicles, with absolutely weak troops, is it not a joke to achieve such a big result?

It is still possible to fight this battle with the most advanced tanks in the world.

"Yes, this is absolutely impossible, it must be a false report of war exploits!" Kovarobi didn't believe it.

Tanzania's tank unit has never achieved such great feats since its formation.

"Mr. Minister, the front line needs troops to do the aftermath work, and our losses are not small, there are only six tanks and 9 armored vehicles left that can still fight!" Liao Dong looked at the two of them without explanation. "Although most of the opponent's armored forces have been resolved, there is still Bujumbura!"

"I'll order Beyoma and Egru to reinforce immediately!" Kovarrubi said.

"Jabri's team can reach Cabez in two and a half hours. Ibrahim was also quick to say it.

It's time to take credit.

Especially Jabri and others, they need to be gilded, otherwise, the middle and high-ranking officers who become the Tikrit division will not have the qualifications to get their hands on.

"It's all bastards!" Liao Dong scolded angrily as he watched the two of them go about the arrangement.

Xie Kai looked at him and thought deeply, "We should be glad that we have achieved such a big result." In the future, the business of the mercenary group will be very busy. ”

On this side of Africa, there are rebellions all the time.

Bagaza's $60 million and some mining rights to regain power in just a few days is definitely a good advertisement.

"No, we should have a headache. There are too many businesses, and the troops we can use ......" Liao Dong was worried about this.

No one is taking this war seriously.

"In any case, it can't be like this again. The expansion of the river crab mercenary group is a must. Whether it's infantry, or ground forces......" Xie Kai reminded Liao Dong.

Liao Dong nodded, "I discussed with the rabbits, and I want to hear your opinion." ”

Xie Kai looked at Liao Dong and waited for him to say.

"We are preparing to recruit a group of retired officers and soldiers from Pakistan and the Soviet Union. Liao Dong said about the Soviet Union, looking at Xie Kai.

Soviet special forces fought with the River Crab Mercenary Regiment in Afghanistan.

The other party suffered a lot of losses.

"Can the Soviets let go of their hatred?" said this in line with Xie Kai's suggestion, "if they participated, it would be better." In terms of combat ability and combat awareness, they are much more reliable than Iraqis and Tanzanians. ”

"After all, our opponents are Western veterans. Liao Dong said with a smile, "I'm afraid you don't agree." ”

"What do I disagree with, you make your own decisions about these things. By the way, this time I'm going to talk to Bagaza about building a barracks in Burundi. Xie Kai said.

What Tanzania has done this time is really disturbing.

What's more, the loss of fighters this time definitely has to be deducted from the commission they deserve.

If you don't do it, they'll get stuck in the neck of the river crab mercenary group.

"I thought so too. This incident has sounded the alarm for us. Liao Dong said, "It's in the Kabanga area, let's have a piece of the area along the lake." There's a very large nickel mine over there. ”

"Okay, I'll talk to him. Xie Kai nodded.

Although the war has not changed and is basically coming to an end, there are still rebels in Bujumbura's capital that have not been resolved, and Yobuya has not yet been captured, and Liao Dong needs to continue to arrange command.

Xie Kai went to find Bagaza, who had been anxiously waiting for news here, and Bagaza was extremely worried since he learned that the airport runway had been destroyed.

He regretted pinning all his hopes on such a new team of mercenaries, who had never had experience in large operations.

"Really?" Bagaza looked incredulous when he heard what Shekai had told him, "Isn't your large army not yet in Kigoma?"

"The armored forces assembled by Yobua are too poor in combat capability. Xie Kai sighed, "Now there are more than twenty tanks and more than forty armored vehicles left in Bujumbura......"

Xie Kai tested Bagaza's attitude.

The captured tanks and armored vehicles, if the other side wants to go back, they will definitely have to spend money to buy them.

There are regulations for mercenaries, and the weapons and equipment captured belong to the mercenary combat units.

It is used to pay bonuses to everyone, pensions to disabled mercenaries, etc.

"Destroy so many ...... What are you going to do with the captured tanks and armored vehicles?" asked Bagaza.

Xie Kai looked at him with a smile on his face, "Your Excellency the President, when we signed the agreement before, we said that the seized crab belonged to the river crab." ”

"That's not what I meant. Bagaza shook his head, his face full of helplessness, "Even if you keep these, the annual military expenditure is very large!"

Now Xie Kai couldn't understand his thoughts.

"I mean, if the River Crab Mercenary Regiment is kept for their own use, they can use these captured tanks and armored vehicles to form an armored unit to fulfill the defense contract with us. Seeing Xie Kai's puzzled face, Bagaza spoke.

Xie Kai thought before, if Bagaza wanted to ask for the tanks and armored vehicles back, how could he refuse, but he didn't expect that he would make such a request.

"I know that the tanks they are using now are Kabila's!" Bagaza said, "and if there are armored units, at least two battalions of size, plus a small squad of air force units, and security costs per month, I can pay $2 million." ”

Drowsiness meets pillow?

Xie Kai really couldn't believe it.

Whatever they want, Bagaza proposes.

After confirming again and again, knowing that he had heard correctly, Xie Kai didn't know what to say for a while.

"Your Excellency, aren't you going to build your own national defense forces?" Xie Kai asked. "While we want to do as much business as possible, we are responsible for all your country's defense tasks......

We will not interfere in the internal affairs of other countries, and as long as we do not harm their interests, we will never do anything.

But all the business is given to the mercenaries, which will be ......

"No, I plan to reorganize our army, only keep 6,000~8,000 light infantry, and ask the River Crab Mercenary Regiment to help us train. In addition, according to the situation, the security team will be equipped. Bagaza said earnestly.

Xie Kai was relieved.

Both sides are testing each other.

Xie Kai didn't know that Bagaza's mind was electric after knowing the combat effectiveness of the river crab mercenary group.

If there is really anything, the River Crab Mercenary Group can also quickly overthrow his regime, and instead of spending money on army building, it is better to hand it over to the River Crab Mercenary Group.

The $24 million annual security premium can protect his regime from the threat of overthrow, and the savings can be used for economic construction.

As long as economic construction yields results, his position as president will become more and more secure.

Bagaza, who is only 40 years old this year, feels that he can serve as president for another 40 years.

"Your Excellency, you should return home. This will keep casualties to a minimum. Liao Dong saw that Bagaza and Xie Kai entered the command headquarters together, and Xie Kai gave him a look, and he knew that the matter was done. "We will send one of the best teams to escort you back to Bujumbura. ”

Bagaza nodded, not at all worried about his safety.

"Thank you, Liao, for allowing me to regain power. Rest assured, there will be no problems with what we have talked about before. As soon as I return to Bujumbura, we can talk about detailed cooperation. Bagaza said to Xie Kai very seriously.

Xie Kai knew that he was talking about mining rights and infrastructure projects.

The River Crab Mercenary Regiment helped him fight, but not just for the $60 million reward.

The reputation of the mercenary group, by the way, more small African governments that are unable to suppress the rebellion can see the hope of suppressing the rebellion efficiently and at low cost, and it is also to help Xie Kai obtain mining rights and infrastructure projects.

"I await your good news. Xie Kai said with a smile.

Bagaza didn't stop any longer, and walked outside with the members of the special operations team who escorted him.

Three Type 63 armored vehicles were used to the command of Kigoma Air Base.

"I've finally been able to gain a foothold in Africa. Liao Dong let out a sigh of relief as he watched the armored car disappear from sight.

"When he returns, it's time for us to harvest. Xie Kai nodded, "Brother Dong, the brother who died in the battle this time, give a little more pension." ”

Liao Dong nodded.

Fight as a mercenary outside and die on the battlefield, but you can't cover the national flag on the coffin, let alone become a martyr.

"Disabled brothers, I'm ready to keep them. Liao Dong lit a cigarette.

Usually, Xie Kai rarely sees him smoking.

"Gotta stay. If they want, they can go to the farm in Kasanga to work as security guards or managers. Or, dry base logistics. Xie Kai naturally would not object, "If you have children, help them raise them!"

Mercenaries fight wars and don't get much money.

Most of the heads were taken away by Xie Kai and several other bosses, and this time the results were brilliant, more than a dozen retired mercenaries from China were killed, and many people were injured.

The topic was a bit heavy, and neither of them was willing to continue.

"Kabila, how are you going to explain?" Liao Dong asked Xie Kai.

The fighters and armored vehicles for this operation were all borrowed from Kabila.

If it is damaged, it will naturally have to be compensated.

Kabila purchased 12 Qiang-5, three of which were destroyed this time, one Jian-6 was destroyed, and three were damaged when the Tanzanians landed on the road and needed to be repaired and waiting for spare parts to be shipped from China.

The tanks lost a lot, Feng Yuan's tank company, 3 were destroyed, two were immobile, and the remaining six were all wounded, plus the Iraqis lost a lot.

"What we borrowed, we must be compensated. Xie Kai replied, "Once we lose our credibility, it will be difficult for us to develop in Africa in the future." ”

Credibility is lost, and the foothold does not exist.

Kabila dared to hand over more than 20 tons of gold to Xie Kai, and dared to lend all the armored vehicles and fighters he bought from China to the River Crab Mercenary Group for use.

It's just that now they don't know what Kabila is relying on.

Kabila listened to the results of the counterinsurgency war in Burundi reported by his subordinates, and pondered for a long time before saying to his indignant subordinates, "Don't be in a hurry yet, see how they deal with it before making a decision." ”

"Chairman, what if they don't compensate? That's tens of millions of dollars in equipment!" said his subordinate anxiously.

Kabila looked at the other henchmen with the same expression, shook her head and said, "We should give more trust to our allies." ”

"But that's the loss of Kovarrubi's people! Once the mercenaries put the blame on Kovarrubi, we'll be in a quandary. ”

"Then wait until they say anything. Since we dare to borrow it, we are not afraid that they will not pay it back. Kabila said calmly.

Others have no choice but to give up.

"Both, although the war is not over yet, there is no suspense. Shekai called Ibrahim and Kovarubi together.

At the beginning, both men were excitedly talking about the course of the war, with smiles on their faces, as if nothing had gone wrong with their people and that the results of the war were obtained by their people.

"Thanks, just say it if you have anything to say. I've already gotten quite a few inquiries. Ibrahim smiled and said, "By the way, Xie, I heard that you used a new type of armor-piercing projectile and a new anti-armor missile during the battle, can you tell me?"

Ibrahim is responsible for procuring weapons and equipment for Silly Timber.

The result of the River Crab Mercenary Regiment, 59 tanks against the French-made AMX-30 tanks, which are much more advanced than them, is less to more, but the Warring States achieved are extremely brilliant.

"That's going to come later. Let's start with the loss of equipment. Xie Kai said solemnly.

Kovarubi's expression changed suddenly.

Several of the pilots who are alive have already been secretly executed by order of him.

But that doesn't seem to solve the problem.

"Thanks, those pilots who disobeyed orders, I have already had them all executed. Kovarrubi said solemnly.

He didn't want Xie Kai to say that they would compensate Kabila for his fighters.

"What's the use of executing people? Kabiraken borrowed the fighter plane to us, which is already a very big favor. He didn't get any benefits, and the equipment we borrowed must be compensated, otherwise there will be business in the back and the equipment is not enough, what should we do?"

"My people's lost equipment will be compensated from my fair share of commission. "Ibrahim is not short of money, his men only lost two tanks, three armored vehicles, and the compensation is less than two million.

Kovarubi was immediately furious, "Although it was the equipment that my people lost, this is for the mercenary group! ”

"Your men are disobeying orders, that's obvious! Until now, your armored forces have not crossed the border!" Ibrahim looked disdainful.

"Thank you, I mobilized manpower from the Tanzanian Defence Force, also because of the lack of experienced combatants in the mercenary regiment......"

"!" Ibrahim interrupted Kovarrubi with a sneering expression, "They have enough pilots, the ones you forced you to arrange, and they refused to mix with the retired Chinese pilots because of the language barrier." Mr. Minister, you won't forget, will you?"
