Chapter 041, On the Eve of the Storm

Nikolav has to admire Canglong is very good at doing business, grasp your weakness, and put you to death, he obviously knows very well that Canglong actually did not plan to want Topol-M missiles at all, what he wanted was Russia's most advanced air defense missile system S-400 Triumph, but he just made such a big detour.

That means, I want Topol you not to give, then the S-400 head office, this missile can't hit Russia, and it can't threaten other countries, it's just a defensive weapon.

However, the S-400 anti-aircraft missile, which Russia itself has not yet fully installed, how can it be sold? You must know that Russia has a huge land area, and most of the area is still only equipped with S-300s, which is almost exactly the same as the current assembly of the Iraqi territorial air defense force.

According to Russia's regulations on arms exports, they generally wait until they are equipped and start developing the next generation of weapons before they sell this generation of weapons, but now Canglong wants them to be the most advanced, and the most important thing is that Russia has just made a mistake and still owes it morally, so you can't not agree to this request, right?

Vivian smiled, Su Su was helpless, Canglong is indeed very good at doing business, this S-400 triumph, they have been negotiating with Russia for a long time, when the Prophet Army first set up with the Russians, they wanted the S-400 Triumph, but in the end they talked for a long time, and the Russians only promised to give the next S-300 pride, but that was also the most advanced.

But now the S-300 is arrogant, obviously not suitable for the current Iraqi territorial air defense, the last Basra was attacked by missiles, is an example, at that time Xiami said that if he has the S-400 triumph, he dares to guarantee that Taylor will not want to enter Basra with a missile.

It can be seen that the Triumph is powerful, and the biggest feature of this missile is that it can defend against targets at a close distance of 10 meters, but the arrogant son cannot.

And the biggest advantage of Triumph is that it can be launched out and look for targets independently, which greatly shortens the locking time, and can directly find targets in the air, without the need to lock on the ground after being discovered, once it comes to wartime, this missile can shorten the original time by two times.

Before the radar detects the target, the missile is launched first, and then when the radar detects it, the missile can directly lock on to the target in the air, which is very effective against the enemy's fighter jets or the enemy's tactical missiles, and it is normal for the Russians not to sell them.

Nikolav and Alexander hesitated for a while, and finally Nikolav said: "This still has to be approved by the president, if the president"

Before he could finish speaking, Canglong interrupted: "Iraq has no strategic depth, you should also know very well, in the past, we faced Kuwait and Iran, all because we took the initiative, and their missiles were not advanced enough, so that they could protect themselves without being attacked on the mainland, but now we have to face NATO countries, especially Israel and Saudi Arabia, these two countries have a lot of ballistic ballistics, if they bombard Basra with missiles, this will bring us a huge threat, It's okay if you don't want to sell, but I don't know if the Prophet will be able to take care of the Russian aircraft carriers. ”

Canglong's words are very simple, it's okay if you don't sell it to me, but when the time comes, the Russian aircraft carrier will be attacked by a large-scale missile, don't blame us for not protecting you, you don't sell it to us, and we won't be able to protect it.

This time Nikolav and Alexander did not speak, it seemed that they had to be sold, and finally Nikolav and Alexander said to report the matter and left.

After they left, Vivien asked, "What's the matter?" Is there another war? ”

Canglong smiled: "I don't want to either, but this time I really have to fight." ”

"It's only been half a year, and we have to fight again, how can the country afford it, China has a saying, although the country is big, the belligerent will die! Now that the people's livelihood in Iraq has just recovered, everything is starting to get on the right track, and once the war starts, the country will be dragged into the whirlpool of war again, and the economy will be sluggish, and the people will not be able to make a living! Vivien was dissatisfied.

She smelled the smell of war from Canglong to buy S-400 Triumph, but now she must recuperate, although Iraq has a lot of oil and can support the war, coupled with China's increasing investment in Iraq, the establishment of free zones, and although the economy has begun to recover, once the war starts, no one knows what will happen.

"You didn't say all this sentence, because there is another sentence in front of you, although the world is safe, forgetting the war will be dangerous!" Canglong looked at her and said coldly, "I know what I'm doing, this is also the last step, and even if I don't want to fight, the Americans won't let us go, or it won't be long before the surrounding countries will attack us." ”

"How do you know?" Vivien wondered.

"You don't need to know, how do I know, you just have to do your own thing, the war thing, it's up to the man to decide!" Canglong said coldly.

Vivian trembled angrily, and finally left unwillingly, after she left, Su Su said, "Why don't you explain the reason directly to her?" ”

"Did it work?" Canglong shook his head, "Even if you tell her, it's just to put pressure on her." ”

"Yes, I wonder how you know that the neighboring countries are going to attack?" Su Su asked.

"Because the Senate, when they know that the Hand of God plan fails, they will definitely take revenge on me like crazy, and Iraq they will definitely take it back, this time they were tricked by me, and they will be ruthless next time, so these days you must let the intelligence agency carefully collect intelligence and maintain stability in Iraq." Canglong said.

Although Su Su knew about the Senate and the Hand of God plan, he didn't expect that the power of the Senate was so big, so big that it could dominate the country, but he knew very well that Canglong was not a war maniac, on the contrary, Canglong didn't seem to like war, so what he said must be the truth.

A week later, to Canglong's surprise, there was no movement on the side of the senators, and Su Su's intelligence did not receive any movement from neighboring countries, until the Russians agreed to sell S-400 Triumph missile technology, and they will upgrade the current Iraqi territorial defense force with missile launchers, radar vehicles and systems, and directly convert them into S-400 Triumph.

This also greatly shortened the time for direct production, but they did not provide direct technology for the S-400 Triumph, this time the Russians learned wisely, and promised to completely export the technology to Iraq after ten years.

To his satisfaction, the Russian military carried out a large-scale purge, especially for the Russian officers in the Combined Fleet, to ensure the absolute safety of the Russian personnel in Iraq, and they even gave Iraq the right to directly investigate the Russians in Iraq, and set up a joint response team, if the Iraqi intelligence agency found that a Russian officer in Iraq was a spy, they could directly arrest and hand it over to the joint response team for review.

Of course, these are all handed over to Su Su to deal with, Canglong did not notice the movement of the surrounding countries, but it does not mean that they have not moved, because these days the American negotiators seem to be surprisingly tough, and they are not as weak as before when it comes to releasing the hostages.

It can be seen that the Senate already knows about this, maybe Long Yunhai has now been thrown into the sea to feed the fish, and the calm may just be the eve of the storm.

At this time, Canglong was building a new armored factory, which is also a secret research center between China and Iran, and the chief engineer of this research center is a Chinese named Cai Qin.

This is also the largest group of technicians sent by China to Iraq, and Cai Qin is the direct leader of this group of technical groups, and their task is to be responsible for developing the weapons and equipment of the US First Armored Division captured by the Prophet Army, and in a short period of time, to create ammunition suitable for these equipment.

When Canglong saw this technical engineer from the General Armament Department, Cai Qin gave Canglong a military salute very seriously: "Good chief!" ”

And Cai Qin is in her fifties, far older than Canglong, but she still knows about the deputy director of the General Intelligence Agency, the prophet of Iraq.

Now among the high-level people in China, there is no one who does not know Canglong, because Iraq was established and after joining the United Nations, China's cooperation with Iraq is also justified, especially on the side of the General Armament Department, when Cai Qin learned that a Chinese in Iraq would give them absolute space to experiment with weapons, she was almost happy.

Any weapon needs to be tested in the war to know how it is, but since China's reform and opening up, there have not been many wars, especially in the 21st century, although there are a lot of frictions around, but there has not been a war, which is a very distressing thing for these technicians, because to develop weapons, it is the best on the battlefield, but they can't find the battlefield, research and development, they will encounter a lot of difficulties and distress, and even some weapons have been developed, and they don't know what the performance is. What is the actual value on the battlefield.

This is also one of the reasons why China's military weapons are already very advanced, but they cannot make a difference in the international arms market.

However, Cai Qin found an opportunity this time, as soon as the people of the General Armament Department heard that they were coming to Iraq, almost all of them were grabbing it, whether it was from the leaders above or the technical backbones below, they all wanted to come here.

But the number of places is limited, and many people can only be stupid in the end, Cai Qin is the luckiest, because the Minister of Security Li Ruomo personally ordered to come to Iraq.

When she first came here, Cai Qin thought that it was just that the prophet was Chinese, but she soon found that several of the senior generals of the prophet army were Chinese, although they no longer had an identity in China, but Cai Qin knew that these generals were definitely from the Chinese military, and even met several times, they did not hold the attitude of a general and had a very friendly exchange.

Now seeing the prophet, this legendary figure, Cai Qin is naturally excited, not only him, but even these technicians she brought are also excited, after all, they are all Chinese, perhaps commonplace in China, but there is a unique feeling abroad.

Especially when they thought that the Prophet was their compatriot, they developed an inexplicable pride, and even cooperated with the Iraqi technicians here, not so much, and before they came, they were worried about what kind of conflict they would have with the Iraqis, but after they came, they found that the new Iraqis regarded the Chinese as their best friends.

Although this tradition does not know when it began, it is here that the Chinese are most popular, except for the coup d'Γ©tat, when the Chinese were attacked.

Whether it is from a private enterprise or a state-owned enterprise in Iraq, among twenty people, you can find at least one Chinese, and even many Chinese have regarded this new country as their second home, because you will not feel strange here.

What left them speechless was that in addition to Arabic and English, Chinese is also a compulsory subject in Basra's schools.

And the new Iraqis don't seem to care what color their prophet is, they only know that the prophet has led Iraq out of humiliation, out of poverty, and on its way to strength
