To be honest, Liu Yijiu really doesn't know what kind of relationship Pakistan has with Iran.

Iran, in particular, after Ayatollah Khomeini became a religious leader, began to export religious revolutions to the entire Middle East, and did not deal with the whole world, of course, their relations with the republic have always been very good.

Sanctioned by the whole world, there is no hatred between him and the republic.

Perhaps, they all hooked up because of a good relationship with China?

These are not important, the important thing is that they will now buy 300 Longwei tanks from Liu Yijiu.

And it is clear that these tanks, not all, they are preparing for the Iran-Iraq war, the Americans abandoned them, and the Soviets have always supported Iraq in the beginning.

Although the Iran-Iraq war said that Saddam Hussein took the lead in attacking Iran, and at the beginning because Iran was unprepared, he was beaten by Iraq and almost lost the ability to fight back, but the actual situation has not been experienced, and not many people know.

Saddam Hussein can be said to have been single-handedly supported by the Americans, but in the end he was sentenced to death by the Americans.

Americans, not a good thing.

Of course, the Soviets were also not a good thing.

Any country is for its own national interests, only eternal interests, and there is no eternal friendship, which is constantly being staged in this world.

"General Canon, there is no problem with the order of 300 tanks, but in a short period of time, we can't deliver it to you......" Liu Yijiu did not ask Zia. What is the relationship between Huck and Khomeini, but he is very embarrassed. "The Ministry of Defense of our country has placed an order for 110 vehicles, Pakistan has an order for 200 vehicles, if you add your 300 vehicles. It is enough for us to produce for three years, and the current production process of many key parts of this tank has not been completed for industrial mass production......"

Liu Yijiu had to tell the truth.

"Director Liu, we can increase the price!" Canon said eagerly.

China's production capacity is not as huge as that of the United States and the Soviet Union, and these tanks have too much advanced technology, if in wartime, all the production capacity of the whole of China will be used on it. There is no problem with this, maybe it will be produced in a year, but now. The Chinese will not invest too much in the production of weapons and equipment that have not been fully tested.

"General, it's not a question of money. The main direction of our country's investment is in infrastructure, and many of the military's production plants are shifting to civilian production. Liu Yijiu shook his head.

Sometimes. The markup is also not necessarily useful.

"Liu. Our order of 200 vehicles can be delayed for a while and supply them first......" Haliak suddenly gritted his teeth and said to Liu Yijiu.

This shocked everyone.

What kind of agreement has been reached between Pakistan and Iran?

"Our country has reached a strategic cooperation with Iran, and Iran will build an oil pipeline to Pakistan...... perhaps in order to dispel Liu Yijiu's worries, or perhaps to let Liu Yijiu know their determination, Khaliak told Liu Yijiu what was originally very secret.

Liu Yijiu was completely dumbfounded.

History has completely changed.

Iran builds oil pipeline to Pakistan? What is it for?

This is something that has never happened in history. If such an oil pipeline had really been built, during the Iran-Iraq war. Iran does not have to worry about a lack of funds at all, and can quickly make up for their domestic losses through oil and foreign exchange.

Iraq is different, they don't have much access to the sea in this regard, especially after the Iran-Iraq war entered the expansion, from land and air battles to ship raids, Pakistan has a sufficient supply of crude oil, which is very beneficial to both countries.

"Even then, the supply of such a large number of tanks in a short period of time is not something that we will be able to do." Liu Yijiu still shook his head.

Your own country must be satisfied first.

"What if I convince your Ministry of Defense?" Kanon couldn't help but be a little annoyed when he saw that Liu Yijiu was still talking about things on this.

"If our Ministry of Defense agrees to postpone their order, within two years, we can supply you with 300 tanks, and before we enter '81, we can supply about 120." There is absolutely no problem with being able to earn money from foreigners.

Anyway, a lot of Iran's money has to be used to purchase weapons and equipment, and it is better to earn it yourself if it is cheaper for the Soviets.

Of course, this has to be agreed by the military bigwigs above.

"What? Let the military's orders be delayed and given priority to Iran? Regarding Liu Yijiu's proposal, Li Yunlong immediately became angry.

They did not want to export this kind of tank in the first place, and China's most advanced land weapons and equipment, not a single one of its own domestic troops is equipped, so it is limited to export, although it has great benefits for the foreign exchange of the whole country, but for them, it is very difficult to accept.

Long Yaohua and the old man and others were not in a hurry to object.

After all, China has always exported light weapons, and even artillery is rarely exported, and now the export of tanks on such a scale is a good thing for the entire Chinese military industry.

The military industry is the most important weapon of the country.

"Comrade Xiao Liu, what do you think about this matter?" The old man looked at Long Yaohua quietly, then at Li Yunlong, and asked at Liu Yijiu.

"Chief, the Iranians are now preparing for war with Iraq. If these tanks perform well, we will get more orders from them, which is a very good thing for the entire military industry of our country. They produce very little weapons and equipment in the country, most of them rely on imports, and a large number of artillery, rocket artillery and even missiles in our country's reserves will have buyers...... "Liu Yijiu is very inclined to supply tanks to the Iranians first.

This is a complete solution to the financial situation of their entire base, and for the entire Chinese military-industrial complex. are a very important support.

The country's heavy duty will be fully shifted to economic construction, and the investment in the military industry will definitely be reduced accordingly.

Especially the new generation of leaders of the country headed by the old man and others. At the very beginning of his ascension, he made a very good judgment on the international situation, and a group that was preparing for disarmament, letting go of some unimportant military industrial units on a large scale, and cutting down some projects that cost money but did not make much progress, and began to show signs of disarmament.

The number of troops of more than four million. It's pretty scary.

"Didn't the Iranians just buy tanks this time?" Long Yaohua asked with a frown.

"They want to buy atomic bombs more, can we sell them?" Liu Yijiu replied with gritted teeth.

Li Yunlong was still immersed in the bad mood of selling good things without using them first, and his daughter-in-law made her not be able to go to her bed for several months. didn't even say anything to him, and his daughter didn't go home for months, all because of this kid, and she was suddenly angry. Immediately, he slapped the table and pointed at Liu Yijiu and scolded: "Boy." Do you think this is inside your Nine Courtyards? If you don't talk well, you die or what? ”

"Okay, Lao Li, let's hear what he has to say." The old man had to stop it.

If you let the two of them make a fuss, they will not be able to do it for a few more hours.

"Chiefs, at the moment, the Iranians have lost the support of the Americans, and Iraq has the support of the Soviets. Khomeini began his exile in southern Iraq and is now the country's supreme religious leader. It is inevitable to export his religious revolution, especially since he has now begun to call on Shia Muslims to resist Saddam's rule......" Liu Yijiu explained what he had learned.

It is analyzed that the Iran-Iraq war is completely inevitable.

In particular, the territorial dispute between the two countries has always existed, and Khomeini is naturally unaccustomed to a country like Iraq, which is not theocratic. What's more, the personal relationship between Saddam Hussein and Khomeini is also very poor.

"How many weapons and equipment can you sell to them? Except for the weapons and equipment in your hands......" Long Yaohua asked Liu Yijiu.

It's a very tempting & seductive deal.

None of these military bigwigs want to see the country's military industry decline like this.

In order to develop the country's economy, it is necessary to tilt investment in the military industry and army building toward economic construction.

Moreover, there is a very big advantage now, that is, the Ninth Academy is independent, which is a pilot unit for military industrial reform that has been approved by the Military Commission and the national government. This will allow you to avoid some unnecessary troubles.

"The 59 tank can be sold in a batch, but not now, the Type 63 armored car can be sold a lot, the 130 rocket artillery and rockets can be sold a lot, and the C801 missiles of the 801 Institute can be sold in a batch, especially some of our missiles, Hongqi-2 air defense missiles, our base's own production of Black Arrow and Houyi missiles, and even domestic surface-to-surface missiles can be sold for some ......" Liu Yijiu weighed, and the Iranians have a great appetite.

They are rich now.

"What about the Air Force equipment?" Long Yaohua asked with a frown.

If a large number of fighter jets can be sold, this can completely resolve the current dilemma of the domestic aviation industry, so that the R&D and production funds will not be faulty.

"It's not very likely. At present, the Iranians maintain a great advantage in air force equipment, especially the dozens of F14 Panda fighters they purchased from the United States, which are far more world-class equipment than Iraq...... and they don't look down on our J-7 and J-8.

He was rubbing salt in their wounds.

But this thing, it has to be done.

The Iranians are not stupid, they are not going to buy backward J-7 fighters from China, they have a large number of American aircraft in their country, and at the same time, the French are still providing them with Mirage planes and even Exocet missiles.

The reason why Liu Yijiu proposed to export C801 anti-ship missiles to the Iranians is because Argentina bought the French Exocet missiles from the Iranians.

The Battle of Anglo-Argentine Islands was basically the last real naval battle of the entire century, and at the same time, it was also the largest naval battle since World War II in the twentieth century.

The French AM-39 Exocet missile did not have any orders before this naval battle, and further research work was largely impossible. Because this anti-ship missile took out the British Navy's advanced missile destroyer "Sheffield", it became famous and received billions of dollars in orders in a short period of time.

The Republic's C801 anti-ship missile, the performance of which is not much worse than that of Exocet, if we want to change the situation of the sluggish domestic military industry for 20 years, we must expand international orders in the case of the state cutting orders.

"This can't work, what you're talking about is all our latest domestic missiles! Especially the C801 anti-ship missile, which absolutely cannot be exported! Li Yunlong immediately jumped up.

59 tanks and Type 63 armored vehicles were exported, these are not problems, after all, the republic has a lot of equipment, and it is still backward equipment.

But the Hongqi-2, as well as the 801 anti-ship missile, must not be exported!

This is the killer weapon of the republic.

Once Lao Maozi knows, they will develop weapons in a positive way.

"Minister Li, even if we don't sell, the French, the Americans, the British and even the Soviets, they will sell! The naval strength of Iraq and Iran is not very strong, and if they can sink the enemy's warships with our anti-ship missiles, it will be very beneficial for our further research. Moreover, a weapon and equipment, only after actual combat testing, can really verify whether our design is reasonable! That's why we want to export our Longwei type ...... in a limited way," Liu Yijiu said coldly.

The country's top leaders basically have this mind.

They are reluctant to export advanced weapons and equipment, but they do not know that the good things that they hide and tuck away are not very good in the world.

"Since the leaders have analyzed that it is difficult for a major war to break out in a short period of time, they have shifted the focus of the country's work to economic construction, and what about the investment in the military industry? Forget the battle and die! This is an eternal truth. Why can't we do such a good thing as selling our advanced weaponry to get further research funding, and at the same time, having our customers go to the battlefield to help us validate our designs? They are currently in talks with the French about introducing their AM-39 Exocet missile, which is an anti-ship missile that is comparable to our performance. If our anti-ship missiles can cause a great repercussion in the international community, what about our air force, if our weak navy cannot protect our huge sea area? "Liu Yijiu is now in a state of mind, and he must persuade these bigwigs to export China's Exocet missiles to the Iranians!

When the time comes, the international community will call the Chinese C801 Exocet, not the French AM-39!

This was the first serious mistake in the export of weapons and equipment from the republic! (To be continued......)
