754 Five hundred cars must not be less and paid in cash, otherwise the price will increase
"Barzan, you don't want to do it anymore, the Minister of Security Intelligence? Get out of the way! If a fourth Iraqi knew about this, you would know the consequences! Immediately, Saddam Hussein was a little unable to hang up, but he did not reply to Liu Yijiu.
Instead, he scolded Barzan, his half-brother.
Barzan is his favorite younger brother, and he doesn't have much ability in his own right, although many times it is Saddam's instructions, but now, it is obviously used to top the cylinder.
was scolded by his brother, Barzan could only leave sullenly, he had encountered a lot of this kind of thing, so naturally he had no other ideas.
Anyway, my brother will appease him after he comes down.
"Director Liu, we can discuss this matter again. Balzan is too young, I hope you don't mind. After Saddam scolded his younger brother, Kanlam could only accompany Liu Yijiu with a smile on his face.
Liu Yijiu naturally borrowed the slope to get off the donkey, and made up his mind that Saudi Arabia must be notified of this matter, otherwise it will really be disturbed by Israel before the missile is transported to Saudi Arabia. In any case, even if the missile is transported to Saudi Arabia, or the key components of the missile are transported to Saudi Arabia and then discovered by the outside world, the pressure will be much less.
"General, the cooperation between our two sides should be based on mutual win-win, if you think that we in China urgently need a large amount of foreign exchange to promote the country's economic construction and promote reform and opening up, and think that we can accept some non-centrific demands and unequal treaties, this is wrong!" Liu Yijiu issued another warning.
"It's nature. Director Liu, you also know. Our country's foreign exchange has been depleted during the two years of war, and most of the weapons and ammunition need to be imported from abroad, and because the war is mainly taking place on the southern border. This is a very painful thing for us, not to mention the economic regression, and the domestic oil exports have also been greatly affected...... "Kanram hopes that Liu Yijiu will not insist on paying in full in cash all the time.
"General, Saudi Arabia has provided you with a billion dollars of special funds for the purchase of Chinese weapons and equipment!" Liu Yijiu is naturally clear about these things, and the one billion dollars that Saudi Arabia gave to Iraq was given to Liu Yijiu by King Fahd. "Otherwise. Let's suspend cooperation, we talk to Saudi Arabia, and then the two of you will negotiate? Anyway, these weapons will be transported to your territory through Saudi Arabia. ”
Liu Yijiu's words. So that Saddam Hussein has no excuse to solve the dilemma at hand.
The two sides did not have much disagreement on the price, but they could not negotiate on the payment method. Saddam Hussein wanted to keep the funds and purchase short-range tactical missiles from the Soviet Union capable of attacking the Iranian capital, Tehran, but the Missile Technology Agreement limited the treaty. The firing range is more than three hundred kilometers. Missiles with warheads weighing more than 500 kilograms are restricted, and they can only purchase the Scud B missiles currently in China, that is, the NATO model codenamed SS-1B, with a range of only 300 kilometers and a warhead weight of 500 kilograms.
And the Scud C, NATO codenamed SS-1C, has a range of six hundred kilometers, although the warhead is still five hundred kilograms. The range far exceeds the limit agreement.
The Soviets did not want Iraq to have such missiles.
Eventually, Iraq found a way. It is three bombs for two bombs, one missile is sawed off from the middle, and then welded to the two missiles separately, and the charge is reduced, so as to increase the range. The Soviets supported the idea and secretly provided technical assistance.
In this way, Iraq will be able to possess short-range ballistic missiles with a range of up to 600 kilometres.
Three bombs for two bombs, the number of Scud missiles needed is huge.
The price of one Scud B reached more than a million dollars, and a billion dollars were able to buy hundreds!
"That's not going to work!" There is a dilemma between buying missiles to threaten Iran's inner cities, or buying tanks to defend itself against the religious fanatics of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard and counterattacking Iran, capturing their southern oil fields and port cities.
After all, the range of missiles is six hundred kilometers, and as long as you find the position where Iranian tanks are stationed, you will be able to attack at a greater distance, so that you don't need too many losses! And the farther you attack, the greater the deterrent power of the missile.
Liu Yijiu negotiated with Saudi Arabia and asked Saudi Arabia to help them purchase weapons, which is not good, and the Saudi royal family is not a good person.
"Then there's no way. Mr. President, you can think about it first, our schedule is very slow, we don't have much time, and tomorrow, we will leave Iran and return to Saudi Arabia. Liu Yijiu did not say that his next trip would be to Iran.
If Saddam Hussein is unhappy and directly kills him, it will be very bad.
Saddam Hussein had no choice about Liu Yijiu's ultimatum.
"In addition, Mr. President, if your country reduces the quantity of purchases, this will lead to an increase in our production costs, and there may be a small change in prices......," Liu Yijiu turned to Saddam Hussein, who was already in a bad mood, as he left.
After saying that, he walked away.
Barzan was driven away by Saddam, so naturally no one was responsible for Liu Yijiu's safety, but fortunately, someone in the presidential palace took Liu Yijiu and the others back to where they lived.
"Bastard!" When Saddam Hussein saw Liu Yijiu's long back, his mood became very bad, and a dark cloud suddenly surged on his originally gentle face. "Young people in such a poor country can bully us!"
Karam sighed, "Your Excellency, although they are a poor country, they are a big country!" Even if they do not have as many advanced weapons and equipment as we do, they have the ability to develop and produce their own weapons, and they have the ability to remotely deliver nuclear deterrence and so on. Now, it's not that he's begging to buy from us, it's that we need to buy from them. ”
Saddam Hussein also sighed and sat down weakly. He knew very well that although Iraq had bought a large number of advanced weapons and equipment from the Soviet Union, it was simply not enough to see Iraq in the face of a real power.
Not even Israel.
Countries with nuclear deterrence capabilities are not more upright than countries without nuclear deterrent capabilities.
Iraq is also secretly engaged in nuclear research, but the progress is not too great.
They also want to be like Israel, where the Americans support mushroom bombs, but the Arabs are not Jews.
"What do we do now? Do you agree to procure on their terms? Saddam Hussein sighed again.
"If we don't buy their dragon guards, what will we do with the opponent's dragon guards on the battlefield? Whether it is the Soviet Union or the United States, the most advanced tanks will not be sold to us, and they will all reduce their technical configuration. Moreover, they are using us as their weapons testing ground! If the Soviet Union or the United States could have a more powerful tank than the Dragon Guard to sell us, we wouldn't be like this! Although both the Soviet Union and the United States scoffed at the Dragon Guard, Kanram, who had been in contact with them for a long time, was very aware of the tension between the Americans and the Soviets.
The Americans and Soviets sent a number of experts to Basra, mainly to analyze why their tanks were destroyed by the Dragonguards.
Moreover, the intelligence departments of both sides are trying their best to pursue the performance parameters of Longwei and the technical secrets hidden inside. Eventually, they got it, but they didn't say anything.
Just tell the Iraqis that their tanks are no worse than the Longwei, and the reason why the Longwei is strong at that time was because of the luck of the Iranians and the quality of the soldiers were stronger than Iraq.
This made Saddam Hussein so angry that he jumped to his feet.
The last time they sent a delegation to China, they found that China did not have many weapons that could get into their eyes, and the production capacity of Longwei was too low, the order had been lined up for several years, and China refused to provide some technology for mushroom shells to Iraq, so in the end no contract was reached.
And this time, they didn't even bring it up.
As a result, the relationship between the two parties is not very good, mainly because neither party gives the other party something they want.
"And, predictably, this time we have a bad relationship with the other side, and Liu Yijiu is likely to help the Iranian government persuade China to export non-prohibited conventional weapons and equipment to Iran on a larger scale. Even prohibited weapons and equipment. Missile Technology Agreement, China did not join! ”
Khamlam's words changed Saddam's mind.
This young man's status in China is not ordinary, he knows it.
With the heart of a young man, he knew that such a situation was very likely to occur. When the time comes, Iran will be victorious on the battlefield, and they will only be able to beg to buy from China the weapons and equipment that the other side has taken the initiative to sell to them.
In any case, behind them stood the United States and the Soviet Union, the two giants of the earth!
"If we pay in full, will we have enough money? Will it affect the trade on the Soviet side? Saddam Hussein was silent for a long time before he asked Khamlam.
"Yes, but it's not a big problem. Your Excellency, I think we should still strengthen our relations with China. The level of China's military industry is not as bad as we imagined! The Soviet ones were also not as strong as we thought. Their anti-aircraft missiles, which shot down our MiG-25 fighters, are proof of this. The best things in China have always been hidden! Until now, their parade, there is nothing else ...... except the appearance of two huge missiles"
In 1981, China held an unusual military parade that shocked the world.
At this military parade, the world found that the Chinese's long-range ICBMs were more powerful than they imagined, and they always believed that the Chinese did not have ICBMs, and as a result, China never announced it!
