735 In front of Director Liu, the local tyrant crown prince is not enough to see
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, I take the liberty of asking, so many rockets, if all of them are added with guidance systems, Saudi Arabia needs such a huge number of missiles?" Liu Yijiu's heart was also shocked.
Is the Saudis preparing for war?
There are more than 2,000 rockets in 300 sets of Guardian-1 rocket launchers, and they must be equipped with five times as many ammunition and tens of thousands of rockets......
If that's all there is, this is not a problem, the biggest problem is that Saudi Arabia requires a guidance system to be installed on the rocket, so as to improve the accuracy of the rocket's shooting!
When the time comes, these more than 10,000 rockets will no longer be rockets, but missiles!
Tens of thousands of precision-guided missiles with a range of 120 kilometers suddenly appeared in Saudi Arabia, does China want to play with the United States and NATO countries?
"You don't have to think about this, this matter is the intention of our King and if you refuse, it will affect our cooperation in other aspects. In addition, His Majesty hopes that the Chinese side will consider banning arms sales to Iran, and as compensation to China, Saudi Arabia will increase its procurement of Chinese conventional weapons, and at the same time, our allies, Syria, Jordan, Iraq, the United Arab Emirates and other countries will have a large number of orders for the purchase of conventional weapons and equipment...... "Sultan's strength is vividly demonstrated here."
His strength is not based on personal majesty, but on the petrodollar of the entire Saudi Arabia.
Faced with his condition, Liu Yijiu himself felt a little dumbfounded.
The other members of the Chinese negotiating team were simply shocked by such conditions offered by the other side.
Quite a few people are counting. How much can the Defender 1 rocket launcher sell for.
Even Qi Hao was calculating.
Liu Yijiu quickly reacted from the other party's words, Sultan said that their allies would have a large number of conventional weapons and equipment purchased. But there is no definite amount.
In this regard, he personally thinks it is not too reliable.
The refusal to sell arms to Iran is not in the interests of China as a whole, and Iran's oil fields need to be obtained through arms sales.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, this order. President Saddam Hussein issued it through you, right? After Liu Yijiu came back to his senses, he quickly asked the other party.
Only Saddam. will be frenzied to place such a large number of purchase orders. And what is required is the installation of a guidance system! Once the guidance system is installed, these rockets do not even need to use a launch vehicle! Moreover, the accuracy of the strike will be greatly improved, and there will be no need for covering shooting at all.
What scared Liu Yijiu even more was that Iraq would use these low-cost rockets to launch the sarin gas bombs they had just obtained from the United States!
If only then. The course of the Iran-Iraq war. will be completely disrupted.
Sultan did not expect that Liu Yijiu would think of Iraq so quickly, and this is indeed what Iraqi President Saddam Hussein meant to King Fahd.
As an ally, King Fahd naturally hopes that the balance of war will tip in Saddam's side, not to mention that Khomeini's bastard launched the war for the purpose of exporting the Islamic religious revolution, which is a challenge to the entire Muslims, and. During the Iran-Iraq war, Iran's air force flew over the "Fahd Line" several times during the Iran-Iraq war. In order to increase the reaction time, a hypothetical line drawn by Saudi Arabia in the Gulf invaded Saudi airspace one by one.
On several occasions, war between Saudi Arabia and Iran has almost broken out.
Moreover, there is information that the Iranians, who are using the tactics of crowds with a small number of advanced weapons and equipment from China, are preparing to launch attack ship tactics against oil tankers that Saudi Arabia helps Iraq transport oil, so as to force Saudi Arabia and other allies to refuse to help Iraq transport oil and reduce foreign exchange sources, so as to reduce the procurement of weapons and equipment.
"Moreover, Iraq has obtained the technology to manufacture sarin gas bombs from the United States, and your country should also take advantage of this opportunity to obtain this technology from Saddam, right?" Liu Yijiu didn't pay attention to Prince Sultan's face at all, and continued.
Only then can these things be explained.
After Sultan heard Liu Yijiu's words, his face suddenly changed.
This is an absolutely secret matter, how can the Chinese know!
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Saudi Arabia is the center of the Muslim world, and it is also the largest country in the Muslim world, occupying a central position in the entire Arab world. Although our political systems are different, we can fully follow the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence put forward by Premier Zhou at the Bandung Conference in 1955 as the basic principles for our negotiations. China is the leader of the third world, and although it does not want war to happen, it is inevitable that war will break out when there are many problems that cannot be solved by political means. Moreover, because of the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence, we will not interfere in the internal affairs of any country...... "Liu Yijiu is very familiar with this kind of thing.
Especially when it comes to big truths, no one can compare.
It is estimated that few people in the whole world can reason with the Chinese, especially on such occasions.
Liu Yijiu's words made everyone stunned.
Even the bigwigs of the republic are being fooled by him on this, not to mention these local tyrants in the Middle East who spend money and solve everything with money.
"So, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, I think the cooperation between the two of us should be based on the principles of justice, fairness, and non-disclosure. Cooperation can only be sustained if it is in the interests of both of us. Although diplomatic relations have not yet been established between our two countries, under the current circumstances, whether they are established or not will not affect the cooperation between our two countries. Once it is affected, I think, in this matter, we will not be able to obtain the foreign exchange that the country urgently needs, even if you are wielding a sword all over the world, you will not be able to buy strategic weapons that can make your opponents attack you seriously...... "Grasping the initiative in negotiations has always been Director Liu's style."
The Americans did not see enough in front of him, the Soviets did not see enough in front of him, and one of the crown princes of the Middle East did not see enough in front of him.
Even if there was King Fahd sitting in front of him, there was no way to deal with it under his words.
"Director Liu, are you threatening?"
When did the crown prince suffer such anger?
You know, even the Americans can't threaten them like this.
"No, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, this is not a threat, just a statement of fact. Cooperation between our two sides should be based on negotiations between our two countries and should not be influenced by third parties. If nothing else, what if Israel knew, or if the United States, as well as any of the NATO countries, knew that we were exporting such missiles to Saudi Arabia? Liu Yijiu said unceremoniously.
He did not point out that it was the local tyrants who threatened the Chinese side first.
Or, even the local tyrants of Saudi Arabia themselves do not know that China can not sell these strategic missiles.
"The Soviets may sell you, but have you ever thought about the consequences of the Soviets' sale? Iraq received a lot of Scud missiles from the Soviet Union, and at what cost? And you are different from them, all Saudi crude oil is exported to the United States and the United States supports Japan......" Liu Yijiu stressed again. "Our sincerity has been sufficient, and after this visit to your country, we will go to Iraq and Iran, and we will comprehensively consider the opinions and attitudes of the senior leaders of both sides......
Liu Yijiu said this, and Prince Sultan's face looked much better.
After all, the meaning of Liu Yijiu's remarks is obvious: if they want to do something, they themselves will talk to Iraqi President Saddam Hussein, instead of the Saudi side negotiating with the Chinese delegation on behalf of Iraq, and even kidnapping the contract for the DF-3A medium-range strategic missile.
Even if the other side really exports 300,000 sets of Guardian-1 rocket artillery shells for $3 million, it will only be $900 million, and even if it is exported according to 200,000 rocket shells, 10,000 pieces will only be $2 billion, adding up to $3 billion, and the other side actually wants to use these $3 billion equipment to buy out China's arms exports to Iran.
Liu Yijiu will still calculate this account.
What's more, it is impossible for the Defender 1 to be sold for $3 million, and at the same time, a rocket shell cannot be sold for $200,000.
After all, the Scud A missile has a range of only 130 kilometers, and the price is millions of dollars!
Even if they export to Iran, the Iraqi side will not give up the purchase of these cheap rocket artillery!
Because they want to use these rocket launchers to transform them into missiles.
Such a cost, relatively speaking, is very low, and it is even very likely that the process of the war will be accelerated, and it is not impossible to completely destroy the whole of Iran.
"Director Liu, let's talk about technical training and after-sales service, as well as missile transportation ......" Bandar has never come back to his senses, Liu Yijiu's sharp teeth, he experienced it at the beginning, but he definitely didn't expect that even His Royal Highness Crown Prince Sultan, who has always admired him and negotiated with the Americans, did not even have a chance to speak.
So, when the atmosphere became awkward, he spoke.
Since we are negotiating, we should first get the contract of the second kicker.
If it is really as Liu Yijiu said, in the end they will lose the opportunity to acquire such a strategic weapon that can guarantee the country's strategic security. (To be continued.) )
