Chapter 421: Battle Group

The Salween Federation is already maintaining an aircraft carrier battle group, and if an aircraft carrier battle group is purchased and maintained, the nascent Salween Federation will not be able to maintain it at all, which is why Long Zheng purchased the Kuznetsov aircraft carrier battle group in his own name instead of in the name of the Salween Federation.

Moreover, Long Zheng's industry is growing rapidly around the world, and he also needs an armed force directly under the Rock Group to deter those forces with bad intentions, and the Kuznetsov aircraft carrier battle group is undoubtedly the best choice.

Once the Kuznetsov aircraft carrier battle group, which is directly subordinate to the Panshi Group, became combat-ready, Ryuzheng began to raise funds to develop the coal mining area in Mongolia's Tavin Tolgoi region and the iron ore mining area on the border between Bolivia and Brazil.

It is believed that with the Kuznetsov aircraft carrier battle group as a deterrent, the governments of Mongolia, Bolivia, and Brazil categorically dare not infringe upon the legitimate rights and interests of the three countries.

It is difficult to estimate how much profit will be generated by the world's largest coal mining area and the world's largest iron ore mining area by reserves. Anyway, with these two mining areas in hand, Long Zheng controls the pricing power of raw materials in the world's steel industry, and the interests in them can make Long Zheng instantly become the most powerful person in the world.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In order to protect the safety of himself and his family, when the Wehrmacht had just been reorganized, Long Zheng conducted a large-scale selection among the soldiers of the First Division of the Wehrmacht Army and the Second Division of the Wehrmacht Army, and reorganized two special operations units, mainly Chinese, with a number of 278 people.

In order to improve their capabilities, Long Zheng specially invited Squadron D, which is biased towards defense and escort missions of the Sword of South China, to come to the Salween Federation and train them personally.

The sweat will always pay off, and after the devilish training of Squadron D, these five hundred and fifty-six soldiers have become qualified special soldiers.

One special operations force stays with him, and the other special operations force is sent by Ryumasa to protect the safety of Oda Hatsufan and Momoeko.

When he came to the United States this time, Long Zheng brought this special operations force with him, and the US government adopted a tacit attitude towards this, neither supporting nor opposing it.

The U.S. government thought to itself that it would be good for Long Zheng to do this, which would just ease the security and escort work of the U.S. government during the Olympic Games.

------

The date of the Olympic basketball game is from July 20 to August 4, because the Salween federal team starting center Tim Duncan, starting power forward Kevin Garnett, starting small forward Paul Pearce, starting point guard Steve Nash, and the team's coaching staff are all developing in the United States, Long Zheng has placed the team's training camp directly in Atlanta, USA.

On July 1, 1996, all members of the men's basketball team, including team leader Jenny, gathered at the Amory University Basketball Arena in Atlanta. In preparation for the Olympic Games, Ryu rented the Emory University basketball arena until the Salween federal team had finished all the games and left the United States.

------

As soon as Ryuzheng arrived in Atlanta, someone from Lockheed Martin Space Systems approached him.

The U.S. military restricts the development of the Salween Commonwealth Navy, but fully supports the Salween Commonwealth Army and Air Force. Because the share of army equipment of the Salween Federation has been occupied by Russia, it is impossible for the United States to miss the share of the air force equipment of the Salween Federation.

However, even if the 24 F-15 Eagle fighters ordered by Long Zheng in March 1996 were delivered within one year, the 10 Mi-24 helicopter gunships, 10 Mi-8 multi-role helicopters, 10 tactical unmanned aerial vehicles, and 24 F-15 Eagle fighters, a total of 54 combat planes of various types, would be far from meeting the equipment needs of the Salween Federal Air Force.

In order to compete for the huge profit cake of the Salween Federal Air Force equipment, Lockheed Martin Space Systems, McDonnell-Douglas, Boeing, and Northrop Grumman, four US companies that manufacture military aircraft, have long been fighting openly and covertly.

No, Long Zheng had just arrived in Atlanta when Lockheed Martin Space Systems, which is headquartered here, approached him.

The C-5 Galaxy, the F-16 Fighting Falcon and the F-117A stealth attack aircraft are two types of aircraft that Lockheed Martin Space Systems is focusing on selling to Ryuzheng.

Ten Mi-24 helicopter gunships, ten Mi-8 multi-role helicopters, ten tactical drones, twenty-four F-15 Eagle fighters, the equipment of the Salween Federal Air Force is clear at a glance.

The Salween Federal Air Force did not have transport planes, so Lockheed Martin Space Systems recommended the C-5 "Galaxy" transport plane, a large strategic military transport plane, to Long Zheng. The Salween Federal Air Force did not have a light fighter, so Lockheed Martin Space Systems recommended the F-16 Fighting Falcon fighter to Long Zheng, one of the most successful light fighters in the world. The Salween Federal Air Force did not have bombers, so Lockheed Martin Space Systems recommended the F-117A stealth attack aircraft -- the world's first stealth fighter-bomber that could be officially combated.

The C-5 Galaxy, the F-16 Fighting Falcon and the F-117A stealth attack aircraft are all three types that the air force of any country in the world wants to have, and the Salween Federal Air Force is no exception. It's a pity that Lockheed Martin Space Systems doesn't know that Long Zheng is now focused on Russia's Kuznetsov aircraft carrier battle group, and in order to prepare for the payment of 10 billion US dollars, Long Zheng has racked his brains.

You must know that because of inflation, the purchasing power of $10 billion in 1996 was greater than that of $20 billion in 2016.

Even if all went well for the Atlanta Olympics, Ryu won five events and earned $7.6 billion in betting revenue, leaving a $24 deficit to be filled.

Under such a premise, how could Long Zheng still have the spare energy to buy new military aircraft.

Not surprisingly, the people at Lockheed Martin Space Systems left Ryuzheng in disappointment, but nothing was gained. (To be continued.) )
