Chapter 180: Seven Billion
readx;
The captain quickly woke up, no matter where these American equipment came from, but this is an immeasurable and amazing wealth, if it can be preserved in good condition and all of it is captured, how much credit should he calculate, promotion or second, whether he can also get the Medal of Independence and Freedom. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The Medal of Independence and Freedom may not be qualified, it is awarded to high-ranking generals, but the Black Lion Struggle Medal is always qualified.
"Guys, be careful with me, if anyone breaks another truck or ship, he'll be left to clean the mecha, quick, blow up these bunnies from South Africa, I'm going to settle the liquidation, how much did we earn." The captain immediately gave an order, these guys are on the battlefield, all of them are rampant, and there is no weight in their hands, this casual punch, one kick over there, millions of dollars of things can be scrapped.
A group of mecha pilots were also taken aback, cleaning the mecha, that is definitely the most tiring job in the mecha army in the end, just like the army guys cleaning tanks and armored vehicles, who wants to do it.
Immediately, hundreds of mechs started to be gentle, but no matter how gentle they were, they would die if they were hit, and they would be crippled if they wiped, and they still made the South African soldiers cry and scream, and they only hated that their parents didn't give birth to two more legs.
"Bastard, dare to use missiles, blow things up, see how I clean you up." A mecha accelerated violently, stopped directly in front of a truck, and blocked a shoulder-resistant missile with its thick body.
This small missile, even at such a close distance, will not cause much damage to the mecha, at most it will leave a pothole in the center of the explosion, which can be easily repaired, but behind it is a multimillion-dollar tank, which is too worthwhile.
The soldier who fired the missile was almost dumbfounded, and looked at the mech that burst out of the flames of the explosion with his mouth wide open. was slapped off the head.
The one-sided battle quickly subsided, and the captain quickly contacted the Red Sea Fleet to stop them from continuing to bombard Cape Town.
It seems that this kind of transportation work in South Africa has been going on for quite some time, and a large amount of equipment should be transported. Or it's still on the way to transport, it's all equipment, it's worth a lot.
Half of the mech unit was sent along the transport route to search for more equipment or where to store it, and the group leader began to count his loot.
None of the small weapons are worth counting, and the main inventory of the group leader is heavy equipment.
Good statistics. Even the captain's brain is a little insufficient.
In the entire port area, there are now 123 M1A1 main battle tanks in good condition, and 52 self-propelled guns and machine gun armored vehicles of various colors. Important fighters, the F22 Raptor has seven, and the F35 has eleven more. There are more than two dozen F15s and F16s.
At the same time, there are helicopters totaling thirty-three, including the Little Bird Helicopter, the Black Hawk Helicopter.
Before the collapse of the world economy, the factory cost of an M1A1 main battle tank was as high as 4 million US dollars, and it was sold to the military to double and exported to various countries. Maybe double it again.
And there are more than 100 in front of me, which is worth four or five billion dollars.
Self-propelled guns and machine-gun armored vehicles may be cheaper, but when they all add up, they will be close to 100 million.
Speaking of the most valuable fighter jet, the F22 Raptor, the United States intends to completely replace the F15 and F16 new-generation fighters, each of which costs at least 170 million US dollars, and this is still the price sold to the US government.
Seven were seized here, that's almost a billion dollars.
There is also the F35, a new generation carrier-based aircraft developed in the United States. The level of science and technology may be higher than that of the F22, but it is a short-range combat fighter, the combat direction is different, the combat effectiveness is not as fierce as the F22, and the cost is cheaper. But it's more than $100 million a plane, and here eleven planes are another billion dollars.
As for helicopters, tens of millions of things, the captain is already a little disdainful and too lazy to calculate.
After a rough calculation, the captain found that he had captured nearly three billion dollars of equipment in this raid, and what could be more than that.
Just as the captain was about to report the good news to the command, the mechs he sent out to pursue the South African army came with news that they had discovered a South African weapons depot in a city called Seheim, seventy kilometers away from Cape Town, north of Cape Town.
The debriefing man, shouting in a voice of excitement and a slight trembling voice, said that they had found a large number of weapons and equipment, all brand new and in good condition.
When the captain heard this, he immediately became anxious, he had already estimated that this kind of equipment transportation should last for a while, and there must be a lot of equipment transported by the South African government and stored it.
Ignoring the order issued by the command to let them stay in Cape Town and clean up the battlefield, the captain shouted and waited for me to come, so he rushed to Seheim with dozens of mechas.
That is, in one or twenty minutes, the captain and his party arrived at Seheim.
This is a small city, not big, when they arrived, they found that it was also a mess, full of fleeing civilians, and when they saw the arrival of the captain's party, they fled in a hurry.
Finally found his troops, the captain was also anxious, and scolded: "Didn't I tell you, wait for me to come, who asked you to do it first, it's better now, make it look like this, hmph, if you break the weapons and equipment, see how I clean you up when I turn around." ”
The deputy captain who led the team was also aggrieved, and hurriedly pointed to the large parking garage in this military camp where they were.
It turned out that this was an air base in South Africa, and it was not a regular combat air base, just a training base, but it was not small, and there were more than a dozen huge hangars next to the spacious take-off runway.
Walking into a parking garage, the captain's eyes immediately lit up, and the empty parking garage was full of all kinds of weapons and equipment, M1A1 main battle tanks, helicopters, fighter planes, all of them, and the number was definitely more than the batch in the port area.
"Well done." The captain patted the deputy captain on the shoulder with satisfaction, completely forgetting how he had taught others before.
……
Attacking Cape Town and attacking South Africa ahead of schedule was also a decision made by Yang Tian in order to prevent the United States from supporting South Africa and causing trouble for himself.
Abye is now a three-in-one offensive mode of land, sea and air, with sufficient transportation capacity to transport soldiers to every inch of Africa, and if you want to fight South Africa, even if there are several countries in between, you can fight like that.
However, the battle at the beginning turned out to be such a result, and Yang Tian was also a little surprised.
Hearing the report of the people below that a total of various weapons and equipment were seized before and after, worth six billion US dollars, Yang Tian was also happy.
Before the war, seven billion dollars were worth seven billion dollars, but now it is wartime, money can no longer be accurately measured, the production line in the United States is running at full horsepower, resources are uniformly allocated, and the F22 is off the assembly line like the automobile assembly line, and the cost is definitely no longer hundreds of millions of dollars at every turn.
Of course, it's not that the things are not worth the price, it's just that Yang Tian no longer values the value of these things themselves, in Yang Tian's opinion, hundreds of tanks, dozens of fighters, thrown into the future world war, I'm afraid it's not enough to consume in one day.
Therefore, in Yang Tian's view, the seizure of this batch of ready-made equipment worth 7 billion US dollars is not as good as the 6 million tons of mineral resources in South Africa, as China did.
But something is better than nothing, and it's worth seven billion dollars, and it's for nothing, and most importantly, the United States wants to support South Africa, and the plan to make trouble for Abye has failed.
The United States is rich, but money is by no means blown by the wind, and the supplies that can support South Africa of nearly 7 billion US dollars are also valued by Abye, and I feel that spending 7 billion US dollars to delay Abye for a month or two is a good deal.
However, it is impossible for the United States to continue to support it like this.
Sure enough, just as Yang Tian thought, after learning that a large number of weapons and equipment supporting South Africa had not been opened for use, all of them had been seized by Abyeh, and while scolding the South African government for being a fool and a fool, the United States also immediately stopped supporting South Africa.
They didn't choose another African country, and if they couldn't keep it, there would be another South African tragedy, and that would not be delaying Abyeha, but funding Abyah. (To be continued.)
