Chapter 713: Gulf Storm (1)

When the Iranian president heard Yao Yi's words, he looked at Yao Yi in surprise and said: "How is it possible? The current economic situation in Iraq is not better than ours, so how can it be possible to start a new war?"

Yao Yi said: "You are right, after the Iran-Iraq war, you chose to borrow from me, but Iraq chose to plunder by force. ”

The Iranian president looked at Yao Yi in surprise, and didn't know what to say for a while.

Yao Yi pointed to the map and said: "If you look around Iraq, to the south of it is Kuwait, which is rich and oily, and what is even more ridiculous is that Kuwait's armed forces are weak, and if they are pinched by Iraq, they will be crushed." And Iraq is also a rich man ---- Saudi Arabia to the west, and most of Saudi Arabia's oil fields are in his northeast region, how can Iraq not launch an armed invasion under such circumstances?"

After looking at the map, the Iranian president said: "So the price of oil will rise sharply?"

Yao Yi said: "Yes, it will rise a little, but the Americans will not allow it to rise too much, otherwise, they Yankees can't stand it." Besides, as soon as Iraq opens fire, it means that the United States will inevitably enter the war, and at that time, there will be US military forces in the Gulf region, and the world's energy will basically be firmly in the hands of the Americans. ”

The Iranian president looked at the map over and over again in disbelief, and kept saying: "Impossible, this is absolutely impossible." ”

Yao Yi looked at President Turkmenistan, at this time, he understood, a smile appeared on his face, and he was not in a hurry to sell those military equipment, because he knew in his heart that as long as the US-Iraq war was launched, Iran would inevitably purchase a large number of weapons, and the object of this procurement could only be Soviet equipment, not Western equipment, because so far, Western countries have imposed a military embargo on Iran and have enjoyed the same treatment as China.

Yao Yi said: "It may not be possible, we will know in a few days, we just wait for the news." Moreover, there is no need to rush to sell our weapons, and Iraq will definitely need a large amount of military equipment, especially anti-aircraft weapons and tanks. ”

President Turkmen understood this and began to think about how to get weapons and equipment to Iraq.

In fact, Yao Yi said this to scare Iran, because once the United States attacks Iraq and gains a foothold in the Gulf region, it means that Iran is threatened by US forces all the time, and under such circumstances, it is impossible not to purchase a large amount of weapons and equipment.

The Iranian president looked at the map carefully, and finally said in a hurry: "I have something to do, go first, the contract, let your people go to Tehran to sign the relevant agreement, I hope that after the agreement is signed, the funds can be in place on time." ”

Yao Yi said: "Don't worry about this, I always speak with my words." ”

The Iranian president left in a hurry, and now he is in a hurry to return home and discuss how to deal with such an important matter with the country.

And he also knew in his heart that the reason why Yao Yi was willing to sign a loan agreement with him was that he had already received relevant information and learned that there was going to be a big war in the Gulf region.

Even if there is no outbreak of war, it is appropriate to take all possible measures, especially in the matter of war, which has a bearing on the survival of the country.

After the Iranian president left, the Turkmen president asked: "Prophet of the East, is there really a war?"

Yao Yi said: "Of course, a small country like Iraq has a team of 1.2 million troops, which is more than the number of my army, not to mention him, with my own strength, it is difficult to support hundreds of thousands of troops, not to mention that he is an economically withered country, for Iraq, in addition to waging war and plundering wealth, the only way is to reduce the troops." However, the Iraqi president is a president with great ambitions, and he has always wanted to unify the Arab world, so how can it be possible to reduce the number of troops, so war is bound to break out, especially when the attack on Kuwait is almost effortless, and this war is almost ironclad. ”

President Turkmen nodded and said, "So, Iraq is going to war, but will the Americans go to war?"

Yao Yi said: "Of course it will, you know, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia are both major oil suppliers to the United States, and the Americans rely heavily on oil. ”

"Now I understand, but it is not easy to sell our equipment to Iraq, especially now that Iraq has no money," the Turkmen president said. ”

Yao Yi said with a smile: "I'm just talking, do you really think that I will sell our weapons to Iraq, and selling them to Iran is the ultimate goal, when the time comes, wait and see, Iran will take the initiative to find you and buy these equipment." ”

"Not only that, but I am afraid that Iran will immediately agree to your railway project in order to counter the United States," said the Turkmen president. ”

Yao Yi looked at President Turkmenistan, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

Yao Yi said: "We just need to know it in our hearts, don't talk about these things." The day of your declaration of independence is not far off, go back and prepare, I should also prepare well, the war drums of the 'Bo's Bay will soon be beaten. ”

After the Turkmen president said goodbye to Yao Yi, he left, and at this time, Yao Yi thought of the issue of China's army when chatting just now, at present, China has more than 5 million troops, and 95 percent of them are army, navy and air force are extremely weak, fortunately, the cost of feeding these troops is not high, but Yao Yi is also very clear in his heart that these troops must be disarmed, if not disarmed, Yao Yi simply cannot afford such a large military expenditure.

However, this is not the best time for disarmament. However, how to disarm has already begun to brew in Yao Yi's mind.

At the end of August, Azerbaijan announced to the whole world through radio that it would secede from the Soviet Union and establish the Republic of Azerbaijan, and on 1 September, the five Central Asian republics simultaneously announced their independence from the Soviet Union and the establishment of the Republic of Kazakhstan, the Republic of Uzbekistan, the Republic of Turkmenistan, the Kyrgyz Republic, and the Republic of Tajikistan.

When these four countries declared independence, they also announced that they would become Yao Yi's 'private' fiefdoms, abandoning the ruble and using the US dollar as a temporary transitional currency.

On the same day, under Yao Yi's arrangement, Ji Tianchang held a press conference to publicize the loan agreement signed between Credit Suisse and the Soviet Union, as well as the supplementary agreement, and at the same time called on Georgia and Azerbaijan, which have become independent, to join Yao Yi's "private" territory.

After the release of this press conference, it really 'stirred' up a thousand 'waves'.
