Chapter 070, the lion opened his mouth
Obviously, the Russian military's interest in this F16C is more than Canglong's estimates, and on such an important issue, the special envoy Nikolav actually agreed, according to the general negotiation rules, the special envoys who are photographed are often given a minimum bottom line, as if doing business, a commodity, what price you can sell, there is a bottom.
The rights granted to Nikolav by the Russian military also have a bottom line, and his agreement means that Canglong's request does not exceed this bottom.
"What more could you ask for?" Nikolav did not believe that Canglong had only one request, because in Nikolav's eyes, Canglong was not a patriotic person, he belonged to the kind of cunning person who wanted to take advantage of reality under the guise of patriotism.
"You take a sip of tea first to calm down." Canglong said with a smile.
"No, you can say it, I hope the negotiations are over as soon as possible." Nikolav is obviously worried about something, he was overshadowed by Canglong last time, and the Russian military is very passive, and no one believes it in explaining to the Americans.
"You'd better take a sip of tea first, in case you listen and something happens, I can't afford to take this responsibility." Canglong looked worried.
Nikolav didn't know what the dragon was doing, but he still drank all the tea at the request of the dragon, just like the vogart they usually drink, it was simply a booze, and after drinking a handful, he put the teacup on the table and said, "Now you can say that you are alive." ”
"The second requirement is also very simple, I need a complete production chain of S-300 missiles." Canglong smiled.
"You're crazy." Nikolav immediately stood up and looked at Canglong with an incredulous expression, "Do you really think that you are holding an F22 Raptor fighter in your hand?" Even if you are holding this fighter, it is impossible to exchange it for the missile production chain. ”
"Huh." Canglong smiled, not in a hurry, "If it's really urgent, can't you listen to me?" ”
If you don't care too much about this F16C, it is estimated that Nikolav will think that Canglong is playing him, after all, this kind of request is absolutely impossible for the Russian military to agree, and now the biggest part of the Russian economy is the sale of arms, and the most important thing is the arms contract between Basra and Russia.
If Canglong agrees to Canglong's request and gives the missile production chain to Canglong, it will be completely different, Canglong can produce it by itself, and there is no need to beg Russia.
And Basra is precisely the kind of country that will never be short of money, after all, the economy here is now on the right track, and there are nearly 100 billion barrels of oil buried underground.
At that time, will there be fighter jets from that country that dare to run into Iraq's airspace? Even missiles may not be able to fly into Basra's air defense network, as long as Basra is willing to drop them.
"Say it." Nikolav's face was heavy, which was completely beyond his biggest bottom line.
"I know you'll think I'm opening my mouth, but," Canglong smiled, "what if one day I occupy all of Iraq?" If you are willing to provide me with the missile production chain, after I occupy the whole of Iraq, I will lease the military port of Basra to the Russian Black Sea Fleet. ”
Nikolav was suddenly a little out of breath: "What you said is true? ”
"This is an equal exchange, I do not plan to build a so-called navy in the future, and the only one that can fill this gap is the Russian Black Sea Fleet, I think even if your president knows this news, he will be very excited, Boswan is the throat of the entire Middle East region, and a Russian fleet is placed here, and you should know very well how much influence this has on the entire region." Canglong smiled.
Nikolav swallowed his saliva, he looked at Canglong in shock, and at this time, Canglong revealed another signal to him, that is, if Russia fully supports him, Canglong will reach a strategic cooperation relationship with Russia in the future.
"How can I trust you?" Nikolav asked suddenly.
"Are you worried that I will become a second Saddam?" Canglong shook his head, "I'm not Saddam, and you're not the United States." ”
Nikolav was stunned for a moment and nodded, Russia urgently needs an outlet to the sea, since the collapse of the Soviet Union, military bases all over the world have been withdrawn, and now Russia is a big country that is sealed in the landlock, his west is the European Union, and the east is Japan and the United States.
There are also Japan and South Korea in the Pacific Ocean, not to mention the Atlantic Ocean, the only Arctic Ocean is simply impassable, and if a naval base can be established in Basra, then Russia's influence in the Middle East will be greater, which is tantamount to planting a nail in the area where the Americans think they are already solid.
Such a strategic position is very important, just look at the news to know that political struggles are often in small details, in the Middle East Russia now basically has no right to speak, let alone China, the establishment of military ports here, the fight is for a right to speak, and this is still the most important region in the world.
"But why don't you go directly to the Chinese military?" Nikolav suddenly asked, "Aren't you Chinese?" ”
"The Chinese Navy has not yet rushed out of the ocean, and they will certainly not be happy to let them come here to build a military port across thousands of mountains and rivers." Canglong shook his head, "But Russia is different, Liaoyuan is vast, spanning Asia and Europe, if you nail it here, it will be much more real than the Chinese Navy nailing here, if there is such a day, the sea gate of Iraq will be guarded by the Black Sea Fleet." ”
Nikolav seemed to be very excited, and finally he nodded, and did not agree, but went back to think about it, Canglong did not force him to agree, after all, even if he agreed, it would be useless, he was just a special envoy, with limited power, and the one who could really manage this matter was the strong president of the Russian military behind him.
But after Nikolav left, Su Su said sarcastically: "Head, you really plan to take the plate, the whole of Iraq is just such a coastline, and it doesn't play a role in building a navy. ”
"Then it depends on whether the Russians are fooled or not, if they are not fooled, then we will not have free sea bodyguards." Canglong shook his head helplessly.
"When the Russians see a good port on the sea, they are like a single man seeing a naked woman, their eyes are shining, and the Soviet Union in the last century could not find a suitable ice-free port, so did they not negotiate with us to form a combined fleet?" Su Su said with a smile, "Such a good thing, why didn't the central government agree at that time, it's very simple, letting the Soviet Navy station is equivalent to letting the wolf into the flock, and the Chinese Navy will never be able to come out, do you also have a bit of a meaning of letting the wolf into the flock now?" ”
"Nope." Canglong shook his head, "On the contrary, China has a coastline of tens of thousands of miles, but Iraq does not, a coastline of less than 100 miles, what is the use of a navy?" It's better to give it to Russia, if you insist on letting me say a purpose, it's very simple, to find them, that is, let them slap the Americans in the face, this is a bodyguard and a thug, isn't it cost-effective? ”
"I'm afraid they'll slap you in the face one day." Su Su teased.
"As long as the Black Sea Fleet is stationed, I don't worry at all, if they dare to mess with me, I will give him a salary." Canglong said coldly.
"You're right to say that, but for such a big matter, you really don't discuss it with Ruomo?" Su Su's face was solemn, "If this is known by the General Intelligence Bureau, you will definitely be charged with collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, and it will be serious." ”
"I really want the Chinese navy to be stationed in Basra, but the question is whether they want to?" Canglong asked rhetorically, "Even if they are really willing, I don't think it will have any effect in Basra, can you expect the navy that can't even solve that little thing on the door of the country to go to the ocean?" ”
"You dare to say this, if it were someone else, the brothers of the navy would not spray you to death." Su Su gave a thumbs up, "However, you are right, the Russians are here, at least they can slap the Americans in the face, our navy is placed here, it is estimated that it is just an ornament, and then we will have to let the diplomatic hall roar in protest." ”
Nikolav left for a few days, and there was no news from the Russian consulate, Su Su didn't expect Wan Zeliang to suddenly find him and ask to see Canglong, at that time Su Su was ready to refuse, because they were waiting for news from the Russians, but they didn't expect Wan Zeliang to say: "I have an order from the central government!" ”
At that time, Su Su let out a "groan" in his heart, it was bad, the Russians must have told the military about this, and Canglong did not have any contact and communication with the military in advance, which would only make the military suspect that what he was worried about had finally happened.
However, when Su Su reported the news to Canglong, Canglong didn't care, he thought that Canglong would continue to play scoundrels, but he didn't expect Canglong to see Wan Zeliang.
The order brought by Wan Zeliang was also very simple, the central government asked Canglong to return to China immediately and report all the affairs of Longteng International in Basra.
This seemingly simple order reveals many mysteries, such as why the State Department issued it directly, and why is it at this critical moment in negotiations with the Russians?
"President Cang, please return to the country within two days, and the big leader and the prime minister will see you in person." Wan Zeliang smiled, but Su Su heard the threat, although he didn't have any trouble with Canglong in the Basra General Intelligence Bureau.
"I see." Canglong nodded, "You can go." ”
After Wan Zeliang left, Su Su said: "Head, you can't go back now, otherwise you are likely to be censored, and the review of the central government, I'm afraid even Ruomo can't suppress it." ”
"My mother is Lin Wanrou, and my grandfather is Lin Guodong, what can the central government do to me?" Canglong wasn't worried at all, "Okay, don't worry, I guess what the central government wants is just an explanation, maybe we've really gone too far recently." ”
Su Su was speechless, even if Nima's background is deep, he doesn't have such a straightforward impact
