Volume 1, Pot of Gold, Chapter 809, The Ambition of the Philippine Army

Next chapter

Jiang Chen listened to Zhang Yaping's troubles, but he didn't take them to heart.

The other party obviously also knew that the bodyguards of Transwarp Trade were not easy to mess with, and they were not doing the stupid thing of driving a ship to attack the sea platform, but just engaged in a parade in front of the embassy and stirred up in international public opinion...... In fact, not many people take them seriously.

Since it did not interfere with the normal work of the Future People Group, Jiang Chen did not pay attention to these trivial "little things". In contrast, there are more important things for him to deal with, such as the increasingly tense situation in Mindanao.

The KS-32 vehicle-mounted anti-drone system, led by the U.S. Department of Defense and developed in cooperation with Lockheed Martin, has been officially put into production. As the main equipment of the "Fly Hunting Program", this KS-32 anti-drone system is capable of suppressing information from UAVs with a radius of 500 meters and forcing the landing of individual UAVs, including the Beta series of the Future Man Group.

The Philippine Army became Lockheed Martin's first customer for the "Fly Trap Program", and the first batch of 1,000 KS-32 anti-drone systems were purchased for $11 million to be used in front-line troops.

There are still 8,000 units in the follow-up procurement plan, and the Philippines can be said to have made great efforts to equip every Humvee, armored vehicle, and tank with this anti-drone equipment to invalidate Transwarp Trade's drone tactics.

At the same time, the Philippines has also purchased five Patriot-3 surface-to-air missile systems, including 357 PA-3 missiles and five test missiles, as well as corresponding radar equipment and upgrade kits, to cope with the air superiority established by the Aurora-20.

Although China protested against the US deployment of the Patriot-3 missile system in the Philippines, this did not affect the implementation of this arms sale.

In addition, I heard that the Philippines has also analyzed the case of the last EMP rocket attack on Mindanao, in which the headquarters of the missile headquarters completely lost contact with the subordinate divisions, and introduced the world's most advanced EMP area protection device from the European real yàn room.

Clearly, the new Aquino IV is determined to regain Mindanao.

General Santos, the president of Moro, is obviously much more anxious than Jiang Chen, and since the Philippines stepped up border reconnaissance in July, he has been talking to Jiang Chen on the phone and asking for help from Transwarp Trade.

"We should strike first! If we wait for them to reorganize the army, we will pay even greater sacrifices!"

"It's right to be tactically preemptive, but strategically we can't do that. Sitting in the study, Jiang Chen crossed Erlang's legs and shook his head to deny Santos's mention.

According to the "US-Philippines Mutual Defense Treaty," if the Moroccan side takes the lead in provoking a war, it will undoubtedly pull the United States from the other side of the Pacific Ocean into the Philippine chariot, which is tantamount to falling into the hands of the Philippines. This Aquino IV obviously had more brains than his predecessor, and he did not hide his intention to use force in the slightest in terms of strategic deployment, in order to provoke the Moro side to take the lead in attacking.

Only if the war is a "war of aggression" will the mutual defense treaty not enter into force. In other words, Moro must patiently wait for the Philippines to fire this first shot in order to avoid the worst.

"But"

"I need you to stay calm, Mr. Santos, do you understand what I mean?" Jiang Chen interrupted him and said unhurriedly.

After hearing Jiang Chen's words, Santos forced his stomach full of questions and forced him to go back, and said unwillingly.

"Yes. ”

"Not bad," Jiang Chen nodded and sat up straight from his chair, "What is the size of the army of the Moro Kingdom now?"

"Fifty thousand. Santos replied.

Mindanao has a total population of 18 million, and with its backward industrial and economic level, it is not easy to support an army of 50,000 people and two mechanized brigades. It seems that this Santos has not drunk and eaten meat all day long, and he still has something to do in the army.

"Call up the reservists and expand the army by another 20,000. I'll take care of the equipment for you, so you don't have to worry about that. ”

Transwarp Trade is taking the route of elite soldiers, and the weapons produced by the military industry of the future people cannot meet the needs of the Moro Kingdom. But fortunately, Jiang Chen has a good relationship with Russia, and it is not difficult for Guò Natasha to get cheap arms from Russia.

After hanging up Santos's phone, Jiang Chen found Natasha and ordered 40,000 AK-12 assault rifles, as well as 10,000 boxes of ammunition, as well as mortars, RPG-7 rocket launchers and other infantry support equipment from Russia to support the new infantry division of the Moro Country.

A total of $1.5 billion in arms sales can be described as a fair price.

The contract was signed on the spot, and it seems that the Russian side has expected that Jiang Chen will ask them to buy these equipment.

Putting away the contract, Natasha casually asked Jiang Chen about the drone.

"It seems that the Beta series of UAVs will be affected by the KS-32 anti-drone system?"

Jiang Chen knew what Natasha was concerned about, so he waved his hand and said indifferently.

"It's just a civilian drone, and the one sold to you is the Beta-3B type, which is a paramilitary drone with built-in anti-jamming equipment. Unless it is close to a range of 100 meters from the KS-32, it will not be affected by this vehicle-mounted anti-drone system. ”

"Then I'm relieved. Natasha said with a smile.

Russia's imaginary enemy is NATO, and if the U.S. fly-catching program proves to be effective, it will undoubtedly undermine the Kremlin's interest in beta-series drones. As the leader of the introduction of beta drones by Russia, Natasha naturally does not want to see that her credit is regarded as a joke in China.

After signing the contract, Natasha said that she wanted to go to the embassy, so she went out.

Seeing that it was still early, Jiang Chen, who was a little bored, took a bottle of champagne from the refrigerator, leaned on the sofa and opened the watch casually, called up the holographic panel, clicked on the browser and brushed the scarf.

Speaking of which, since Liu Yao helped him register a scarf number, he has hardly used it. For a while, he handed over the account to the company's operation team to take care of, but later Futureman Technology became the Futureman Group, and he didn't let the operation team take care of the account anymore.

If you think about it carefully, the last time you sent a scarf, it seems to be a year ago.

After opening the bib account, Jiang Chen noticed that his fans had broken 90 million, and as for the long list of private messages, it was even more staggering.

"Rub, am I so popular in the country?"

Jiang Chen touched his chin and thought about this question very seriously.

In his impression, because the itinerary was leaked on the time he went to Xiangjiang, a large group of reporters surrounded him, and he went to Wanghai City twice to meet Liu Yao privately, but they basically did not attract the attention of the outside world.

Shaking his head and throwing this question aside, Jiang Chen looked along the hot search list and unexpectedly found that the words "undersea farm" were actually on the list.

It seems that there are still some benefits for Greenpeace to make trouble there, and the submarine farm, which was originally not paid much attention to and the Future People Group did not deliberately promote, has become a topic of conversation on the Internet, which also made Jiang Chen feel a little surprised.

The new wolf official also invited a professor from a university in China to give a special explanation of this "submarine farm".

But just as Jiang Chen was about to click on it to see what kind of insights this expert had, a phone call came-
