Fortunately, in this life, because of Guo Zhuocheng's efforts, Luo Xi used various connections to urge the Argentine Army to build a lot of fortifications on several large islands in the Falklands, which was much more prepared than in his previous life, which made several military bigwigs feel a little more at ease

If the recovery of the Falklands is an option they use to boost the people's morale and divert the attention of the people from the bad economy, which may win them the upcoming general election, then it is no longer an option, but a road to Huashan, that is, they must win this war with Britain, whether they take the initiative to retreat or lose the war, they have only one result: step down!

The only thing that can save them is to win a battle, and in this case, maybe they can win more hearts and minds than simply recovering the Falklands, because everyone likes to win battles

However, they knew that it was very, very difficult to win the British army, and that the emaciated camels were bigger than horses, even the declining Empire "is also an empire, and it is definitely not comparable to Argentina, and the only way is to take advantage of the shortcomings of the British logistics line that is too long, and consume the British here and let them retreat."

To achieve this goal, it is necessary to give Britain a little bit of strength, to eliminate a part of the British army, and make Britain feel pain

They thought about it and found that only Chinese missiles were a good thing, and only this kind of missile could give them the power to hurt Britain

Because Argentina, whether it is the navy, the air force, the fighter planes, or the army, has no strength to fight with the British at all, and people will not even give themselves the opportunity to fight in close combat, and the best and only way is to use this missile to carry out a long-distance sneak attack, so that it is possible to hurt the powerful British army

However, they were very frustrated, because when they contacted the Chinese side through diplomatic channels, China actually said that they could not sell them, because Argentina and Britain were currently at war, and when the United States and the United Nations proposed an arms embargo on Argentina, although China abstained from voting, as a responsible power, China must promise to abide by the ban issued by the United Nations

As for the French Exocet missiles and the anti-ship missiles of the United States and Germany, it is even more unlikely that they will be sold, because their relations with Britain are much better than those between China and Britain, and even China is so obedient to the rules, France and Germany should naturally set an example

After listening to the report of his subordinates, President Galtieri couldn't wait to scold, scolding all the countries in the world for being raised by bitches, why are they all so inflammatory, and it's not that I, Argentina, don't give money, and treat my friends like this?

Just when they were anxious, they suddenly heard that Princess Madeleine had a way to buy the bullet at a high price, and they couldn't help but be overjoyed, and several giants immediately negotiated how much to buy behind closed doors to discuss the highest price they could accept

When they come, and Princess Madeleine doesn't come here at this time, and can still help with this, then Argentina should be enough for her friends to give her more benefits, and make her happy

Previously, the price given by the Chinese side was 240,000 US dollars per missile, and at least 150,000 US dollars, the price of the missiles they could accept would definitely be higher than this price

The commander of the Air Force first said: "I think that Princess Madeleine has a good impression of us Argentina, which is taking a risk to help us, and her arrival has also opened a gap in our political situation, which shows that we Argentina are not isolated, so I propose to raise the price that can be tolerated a little bit, it can be increased to twenty percent, or even twenty-five"

Although the Air Force Commander did not know that there is a saying in China that "adversity sees the truth", this is what he meant; of course, this has to do with the fact that the Air Force Commander has a good relationship with the Spanish royal family, not to mention that his deputy, the deputy commander of the Air Force, has been saying good things about China in his ear, saying how good China's anti-ship missiles are, and mentioning that he will buy more ammunition at any cost, and he does not know that his deputy has been held by people with beautiful women and money

The Minister of Finance, who was sitting opposite, immediately retorted: "No! The price has increased too much! I do not deny the contribution and role of Princess Madeleine to our Argentina when she came here at this time, but please don't forget that when China sells missiles to us, it contains huge profits, and you must know that China's labor costs are very low, and their labor costs account for only a small part of high-value weapons such as missiles, tanks, and airplanes, less than one-twentieth of those of developed countries in the West

Now the missiles sold to us by the Chinese are 240,000 US dollars, which is almost the same as the price that the French Exocet gave us at that time, that is, if you consider the labor cost, the profit of the Chinese missiles is much higher than that of France, so, I don't believe that China will sell us such a high price when it sells to Princess Madeleine, I build yì to buy on the basis of the original price, up to five points We are short of funds now, we can't help but save a little, because we don't know when this war will end"

The commander of the navy glanced at the Minister of Finance with dissatisfaction and said: "Mr. Minister, this is not the case, I tell you, we must win this war, we cannot be defeated, and we must endure the difficulties in other aspects, but the funds for the purchase of missiles must be fully prepared, you will not know, the price of an aircraft is several million dollars, and a warship is a larger one is tens of millions of dollars, and a new tank is also 500,000 dollars, 600,000 dollars."

However, can the tanks hit the warships of the British? Can our planes fly to the British ** ship for bombing? Neither! Only this missile can deal a fatal blow to the UK, we can't just focus on the price, we want their effectiveness, didn't Princess Madeleine say that it was purchased from China at a high price during the meeting just now? Even if we thank her for her help, we should automatically increase the price by 30 percent on the basis of the Chinese price, don't forget that people are taking risks."

The commander of the navy, who was only taken by Pan Lili and the others, said: "I have built a plan to install this kind of long-range missile on our warships, which is of great benefit to improving the combat effectiveness of our navy and protecting the safety of our warships."

The Minister of Finance immediately objected: "No! At most 10 percent, if the price is higher, I firmly oppose it! ”

Just then, a naval officer hurried in with a telegram in his hand, with a palpable look of anxiety on his face

President Galtieri was upset and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

The commander of the navy glanced at the commander, saw the commander of the navy nodding, and hurriedly stood up and reported: "Your Excellency, I just received a call from the defenders of South Georgia Island, our submarine 'Santa Fe' was discovered and damaged by a British helicopter, and was forced to surrender to the British army after surfacing because there are still eight nautical miles from the shore, and the defenders on the island cannot support it, because the anti-aircraft missile has not yet been debugged."

President Galtieri slapped his palm on the table and cursed something, but no one heard it clearly, for his muttering was mixed with the loud noise

Hearing this news, not only the commander of the navy, but also the others were in a very bad mood, although they also knew that once the submarine was discovered by the anti-submarine helicopter, it would be difficult to escape, and in addition to surrendering was death, but as leaders, of course, the soldiers under their command would rather die than give in, not to mention that it was too embarrassing for this kind of mess to appear before the war officially began, and once the media disclosed it to the newspapers, they did not know what would cause trouble

President Galtieri said categorically: "We must increase the purchase of missiles, as long as the Chinese's missiles are as good as demonstrated, we agree to increase the offer by up to thirty percent!" After all, it is a war, and the price of weapons during the war must be higher, and many times it is normal to ...... several times higher than the usual price, but you must sue her, she has to send us missiles immediately after the contract is signed, and we will punish her if we delay it for one day...... Her company is a lot of money...... With these missiles, we have to give the British a big greeting gift, and we want to avenge our submarines! ”

What he didn't know was that in his previous life, the submarine "Santa Fe" not only surrendered to the British army, but was also influenced by them, and let South Georgia surrender because of the fear of British force, so that the British army easily obtained an important forward and rear supply point

In this life, because of the fortifications and the number of people, they were much more courageous, and there was no sign of surrender

With the president's final word, the Minister of Finance did not speak again, but bowed his head sullenly, and President Galtieri did not think about his feelings, but ordered the commander of the air force to personally arrange personnel to conduct specific negotiations with the people on Princess Madeleine's side, and before the negotiations, he personally visited her and asked him to express his sincere gratitude on behalf of Argentina for her visit

Princess Madeleine was a member of the royal family, and although she was noble, she had no administrative position, and the commander of the Air Force, as one of the three giants of the military, personally visited her, apparently in her political background and symbolic sense

The commander of the air force in Argentina is different from the commander of the air force of other countries, and his power is much greater, because Argentina is a country controlled by the army, and the president is the commander of the army, and he is also the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of the whole country, but the military circles are held by the troika of the commander of the army, the commander of the navy, the commander of the air force, and no one can decide on major matters alone, and it must be agreed by three people at the same time, which makes the power of the other two people in addition to the president very huge, and they cannot be measured by the position and power of the air force commander of other countries

At this time, Guo Zhuocheng had quietly come to the Chinese Embassy in Argentina
