Chapter 497: Sarkozy who made a stumbling block

The night was dark and silent, the inky sky was dotted with stars that shimmered from time to time without any brilliance, and the night breeze and the steep spring cold shivered a freshly planted birch tree in a luxurious and quiet manor on the outskirts of Frankfurt.

It was like a lost child, cowered in fear and pity, looking up helplessly at the starry sky, hoping to get guidance to go home, but the dimming stars in the sky did not give him any hints, but let the more raging darkness completely envelop him, so that the last flame of hope was shattered

At this moment, Lieutenant General Messi, director of the General Directorate of Equipment of the Argentine Joint Chiefs of Staff, who is in the living room on the second floor of the manor villa, is like the tiny birch tree in the manor, and the last flame of hope in his heart is being ruthlessly extinguished:

"General Messi, as you know, we and Britain are both allies of NATO, and just this afternoon, the Thatcher government in Britain has sent a note to our French government, hoping that we can fulfill our obligations as allies and impose an embargo on weapons and equipment on Argentina!"

Sarkozy sat on the luxurious sofa opposite Lieutenant General Messi, crossed his legs, and his fair and handsome face still had the scars left during the day, but unlike the embarrassment at that time, he was radiant again, and the arrogant French aristocratic temperament emanated from his body from the inside out, charming and shrewd eyes, constantly scanning General Messi sitting opposite, as if looking at a stranger, full of scrutiny, pondering and unbeatable nobility:

"And just before you came, I just received a special message from the French government asking our Thomson Company to postpone the delivery of your country's remaining 'Super Military Flag' attack aircraft and supporting 'Exocet' anti-ship missiles."

"No! No, you can't do this!" Before Sarkozy could finish speaking, General Messi stood up excitedly, knowing that at this juncture, if France stopped the supply of weapons and equipment. That would be tantamount to choking Argentina by the neck, and when the time comes, Argentina, which has no armament production capacity, will run out of ammunition and die of food.

At this moment, Messi's heart can be described as extremely sad and indignant, he hates the reckless recklessness of the fools of the Argentine military junta, and also hates the fact that at this critical juncture of Argentina's life and death, France takes advantage of the danger of others, but no matter what. Things have happened, and since it is irreparable, then as a soldier of Argentina, he can only face it head-on, not for anything else, but for the country and honor

Thinking of this, the excitement in General Messi's heart due to hatred was simply suppressed by his reason, although the deep eyes revealed the recklessness and resentment of the soldiers. But the tone was much softened, and even showed a hint of flattery without smiling:

"I know you still have a way, Mr. Sarkozy, you must have a way, and you also know the current situation, we really need this batch of planes and missiles urgently, so please think of another way, as for the price, we are willing to pay three times the original price!"

Look at General Messi's outstretched three fingers. The smile on Sarkozy's face grew even stronger, and he enjoyed the excitement of General Messi just now. But the pleasure brought by having to bow his head in the face of reality, yes, this is the pleasure he wants, isn't your General Messi rejecting French equipment? Isn't it instigating the contest between China and France with bazookas? Aren't you abandoning French goods and purchasing Chinese bazookas?

But in the end, I didn't have to prostrate myself in front of me and beg for mercy, but Sarkozy was not satisfied with all this. Because the person who gave him great shame today has not bowed his head, and because of this, he wants to take revenge, crazy revenge

"General. It's not a business issue, it's a political matter!" Sarkozy waved his slender index finger at Messi nonchalantly, and put on an unmoved look, Messi saw this, and his whole heart suddenly fell to the bottom, but the next moment, a soldier's blood gushed out from the depths of his heart, he has suffered too much humiliation since he stepped into this manor, but the result is still like this, since this is the case, there is no need to bow his head again:

"Mr. Sarkozy, we have signed a contract for the remaining planes and missiles, and we have paid most of the money, if you don't carry it out, aren't you afraid that I will file a lawsuit?"

"Hahaha~~~" Before General Messi's words were finished, Sarkozy's unbridled laughter resounded throughout the room, and it gradually dissipated after a while:

"General, I really don't understand how you got your general's star, did you put it on yourself? You actually believe in the binding force of a paper contract, you must know that this thing is not as good as a piece of paper in the face of national interests!"

"You~~~~" Messi was so angry that his face turned blue, his hands on his knees trembled slightly, and his sharp eyes cut Sarkozy's face like a knife.

It's just that this is Germany, and it is the liaison office of the French Thomson company in Germany, but more importantly, he still has Sarkozy to ask for it, so even if he is extremely angry, the rational Messi still suppresses the anger in his heart like a magma eruption, but there is no politeness between the words:

"In that case, then we have nothing to talk about, you France is not the only one in the world who has such equipment and technology"

As he spoke, General Messi stood up and walked towards the door without looking back, but before he could reach the door, Sarkozy's contemptuous voice with a strong French temperament came word by word:

"There are several countries in the world that have such technology, but only we France are the most suitable for you Argentina!" Hearing Sarkozy's words, Messi couldn't help but pause, and then his pace slowed down, and Sarkozy saw this, his thin lips pulled slightly, and he put a cold smile on his face that saw through everything, and then got up, and walked towards Messi while saying slowly:

"I know that since the afternoon, you, General Messi, have been moving around with the intention of procuring arms, but you are still not moving as fast as the British, and their diplomatic offensive has begun to appear, and Germany, the Netherlands, Sweden, and we in France, and of course the United States, on which you rely the most, are among them, all of whom are critical of Galtieri's stupidity.

I think you should know very well the meaning of this, maybe you will set your sights on the Soviet Union, but your equipment system and the Soviet Union's equipment system cannot be integrated at all, and if you want to confront the British expeditionary fleet in the near future, there are only five 'Super Military Flag' attack aircraft that arrived last year!"

Listening to Sarkozy's words, Messi did not answer, but stopped, yes, Sarkozy can be described as a breakthrough, since Messi got the news of the outbreak of the war, he immediately returned to the station, sent out all the people who could be sent, and purchased arms at all costs, because he knew that the Argentine army, whose arsenal was cleaner than his face, could not support a large-scale war at all, and if there was no support for weapons and ammunition, defeat would be inevitable.

However, the reply he got was as Sarkozy said, under the diplomatic pressure of the United Kingdom, many countries under the guise of neutrality and mediation, closed the door to arms sales to Argentina, and in desperation, Messi could only re-focus on France, which has the consideration that France can withstand the pressure from Britain, and more importantly, at present, only French equipment can play a decisive role, but the facts in front of him are

Seeing Messi stop and stand there motionless in deep thought, Sarkozy's dark smile became even brighter, at this moment Messi in his eyes was like a beautiful woman with a little temper, completely stripped of all her clothes at the last moment, and finally was powerless to resist, so he could only bow down at his Sarkozy's feet and let him play with it, and this was just the most insignificant small chess piece in his series of revenge plans

"So, you'll come to me, of course we've been friends for many years, and some things are troublesome, but they don't necessarily can't be done for us, but"

"What conditions you can say!"

"I heard that you ordered two thousand Chinese bazookas?"

"Mr. Sarkozy, don't worry, I will return the contract with China when I go back and buy French bazooka instead!"

"No! No! This is too cheap for those Chinese, you can do this and so"

"Huh?" Hearing Sarkozy's words, Messi was taken aback and couldn't help but say worriedly: "Mr. Sarkozy, we are with China"

"After the deed is completed, all the arms and equipment will leave immediately!" Messi was halfway through his words when he was interrupted by Sarkozy's undoubted words, and then patted General Messi on the shoulder, laughed and walked away

At the same time, in the secret room next to this living room, a middle-aged man with a strong British atmosphere saw every move outside clearly through a carefully disguised dark window, and the face that seemed to be frozen as the Arctic Ocean was as calm as the Arctic Ocean, faintly pulled out a sneer, and then muttered to himself:

"This Sarkozy is insidious!" )
