Chapter 325: To Each His Own Need
Wu Chen stayed in Mosk, Russia, for three days, and then flew back to the Golden Triangle, where all the negotiations were handled by Marcas. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć In the past few days, he has mainly discussed the issue of SAARC with the leaders of the Russian government, and both sides agreed to use this opportunity to teach the United States and NATO a hard lesson.
Wu Chen was convinced that the other side would launch an unprecedented air raid to force SAARC into submission and completely squeeze Russia's influence out of Eastern Europe, and all the signs now showed that this war was inevitable.
"The reform and transformation of any country will be a painful experience, and these requirements of the Golden Triangle Federation are indeed very demanding, but we have no better choice. In fact, this is not a robbery while the fire is burning, just like Mr. Wu Chen said, rather than slowly decaying in the wilderness, it is better to exchange for some funds needed at the moment. ā
"We have inherited the huge assets of the Soviet era, but we do not have the ability to keep them afloat, which is in itself a burden, a burden, and a waste! Pooling and consolidating limited resources is something we must do, and for this we need the help of the Golden Triangle Federation. ā
"He is right, and I believe this is his sincere words, an overly powerful and unscrupulous United States is also a disaster for the Golden Triangle Federation, and we both have common goals and interests." The old man sat by the lake and said to the middle-aged man beside him while fishing, and there was no indignation in his tone, but very flat.
"Wu Chen suggested that we take the line of elite troops, vigorously develop high-tech weapons and equipment, strengthen the construction of nuclear weapons arsenals, replace all those outdated old equipment, and no longer eat the old roots of the former Soviet Union, and overseas bases need to be used as soon as possible, and I also think this is realistic."
"The Air Force will increase the production of fourth-generation fighters such as the Su-34, Su-35, Su-30 and MiG-35, develop fifth-generation fighters with stealth capabilities, increase the number of Tu-160 strategic bombers and develop stealth bombers, and the Navy will build two or three nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, form three blue-water ocean-going battle groups, and build ten Boreasan ballistic missile nuclear submarines and ten Yasen-class attack nuclear submarines, so that the combat effectiveness will not only not be weakened, but can be improved."
"This person's thinking is very clear, his focus is very precise, he has a strong sense of strategy, his idea is exactly the same as what I considered, or even bigger, I even have a feeling that in the new pattern of the world in the future, the Golden Triangle Federation will be Russia's main ally." The middle-aged man said with a smile.
"I have the same opinion as you, deepening cooperation with the Golden Triangle Federation headed by Wu Chen will be helpful to the future of Russia, so don't care about the immediate gains and losses. Some generals believed that this batch of weapons and equipment was worth tens of billions of dollars, and that it would be too much of a loss to sell 10 billion dollars to Russia in the Golden Triangle Federation. No matter how much you have, you have to be able to use it to be valuable, and if you leave it there and ignore it, it will become a pile of scrap metal, so that it is in the interests of Russia? The old man said with a little sarcasm.
"In fact, with the strength and vision of His Excellency Wu Chen, we don't attach much importance to the weapons and equipment of the former Soviet Union, but the Golden Triangle Federation has just been established, and it is impossible to build a strong industrial system without a few decades, and there is no choice."
"His next business focus will be on Africa and South America, where such cheap and high-quality weapons and equipment are needed as a means of bringing ties closer to each other, and this strategic consideration does not conflict with Russia's interests, and he also allows our navy to use Cam Ranh Bay and the Andaman Islands as supplementary stations to contain the oil and dollar strategy that the United States is going to implement in the Middle East." The middle-aged people admired Wu Chen's foresight very much.
"Inform the representatives of the Ministry of National Defense, we want to increase our support for the Golden Triangle Federation, in addition to the price of weapons and equipment is lower, but also to provide more machine tools and electronic manufacturing equipment, Wu Chen is a very strategic person, he has seen the hidden danger in the Middle East, that is, the conflict between the dollar and the euro, if there is a war in the Middle East, the oil-producing region, the price of oil will increase immediately, that is, the opportunity for Russia to turn over!" The old man said in an unquestioning tone.
Two days later, the Russian government held a press conference to announce that it would sell the state-owned shares of the Russian oil company to a Russian named Ilya for $400 million, and that it would continue to enjoy the right to carry out oil and gas exploration and development in all regions of Russia.
More than a dozen 100,000-ton bulk carriers arrived at Russia's port of Novorossiysk, and after being transshipped by 10,000-ton cargo ships, they continuously transported a large number of main battle tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, helicopters, self-propelled artillery, towed artillery, anti-aircraft missile launchers, missile carriers, military trucks, armored vehicles, and other equipment, as well as tens of thousands of tons of artillery shells, rockets, missiles, and bullets, including some guns, to various ports in Africa.
Fifty Tu-22M3 strategic bombers, five hundred Mi-24 gunships and five hundred Mi-8 transport helicopters, three thousand T-80 main battle tanks and six thousand T-72 main battle tanks, one thousand BMP-3 infantry fighting vehicles, two thousand transport armored vehicles.
500 BM-22 220-mm MLRS, 300 BM-30 300-mm rocket launchers, 600 2S3 152-mm self-propelled howitzers, 80 2S19 152-mm self-propelled howitzers, 100 2S5 152-mm cannons, 100 2S7 203-mm self-propelled howitzers, 60 2S23 and 2A31 self-propelled mortars.
There are 200 sets of SAM-4, 100 sets of SAM-11, and 100 sets of SAM-12 air defense missiles at medium and high altitudes, 300 sets of SAM-6, SAM-8, and SAM-15 air defense missiles at medium and low altitudes, and 400 sets of SAM-9 and SAM-13 missiles at medium and low altitudes.
There are more than 4,000 sets of low-altitude man-portable anti-aircraft missiles, including SAM-7, SAM-14, SAM-16, SAM-18 and SAM-24. There are also 300 Tunguska air defense systems of the former Soviet Union and 100 Pantsir-S artillery integrated air defense systems equipped with the latest Russian equipment.
There are more than 30,000 rockets, cruise missiles, air-to-ground missiles, anti-ship missiles, air-to-air missiles, and anti-aircraft missiles, all of which are stocks of the former Soviet Union, conventional aerial bombs, cluster bombs, and so on.
But how much of the Russian armory can be accounted for by so much equipment, Marcas finally learned through a deputy minister of defense that only 20 percent, which shows how rich the former Soviet Union has left behind.
