Chapter 724: War Preparation and Planning III
Although the weapons and ammunition produced and manufactured in the former Soviet Union are somewhat backward in technology for now, their practicability has not been reduced in the slightest, and although they are known as stupid and coarse, their performance is stable and powerful, and they are not as squeamish as the weapons and equipment of the United States.
Just like the AK-47 assault rifle, it can be used for desert warfare, mountain warfare, urban warfare, it is strong and durable, simple to produce and inexpensive, even if it is another ten years, it is the first weapon equipped by many countries.
Soon, Marcas signed an agreement with the Russian defense minister, turning the above into a legally binding contract, for which the mercenaries paid all the goods in one lump sum and were responsible for transporting the goods to their destination for storage, and each party took what they needed.
Russia has received much-needed funding that will be used to create high-end naval equipment to prepare for future carrier battle groups, a powerful blue-water navy that is a major component of Russia's influence and deterrence.
Besides, although these conventional weapons can also be sold for some money, if they are sold by Russia, they will be strongly condemned by international public opinion, and the AK-47 assault rifle is the weapon of choice for many local armed forces, rioters and trafficking groups.
The General Logistics Department of the Mercenary Corps will distribute these weapons and ammunition to the Taliban government troops in Afghanistan and the Kurdish troops who are confronting the government forces in Turkey according to Wu Chen's instructions, so as to reduce the cost and time of manufacturing conventional weapons.
"Originally, after the Cam Ranh Bay Shipyard completed the construction of the aircraft carrier Ulyanovsk, it was time to build a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier for the Gulf countries, and if you want to build a second one for the Russian Navy, you must wait until five years later, but after discussing with Prince Sultan, I decided that the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier of the Black Sea Shipyard, which has been under construction for a year, will be temporarily assigned to the sequence of the Russian Navy, as an iron fist against the US Navy, and I hope you will not disappoint the Golden Triangle Federation and the Gulf countries." Wu Chen said.
The three nuclear-powered aircraft carriers ordered by the joint forces of the Gulf countries, which have always had a lot of money to buy weapons and equipment, are naturally in accordance with the standards of the US Nimitz-class nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, and they are also 100,000-ton large aircraft carriers, and Russia's second aircraft carrier, which is equivalent to the same division, and they are all designed by the ship design of the Black Sea shipyard, and belong to the later version of the Nimitz class.
The cycle from the start of construction to the commissioning of large nuclear-powered aircraft carriers is generally five years, which includes three years of manufacturing time, one year of launching and outfitting time and one year of sea trials, even at Newport News Shipyard.
Wu Chen's meaning is very clear, the construction will start in five years and the service will be able to serve in five years, which is a full ten years before and after, and the Gulf countries and the Golden Triangle Federation will support the Russian Navy without limits.
"As for the work to be done in the early stage of the war in Afghanistan, up to now preparations have been completed, and the warehouses of the five super-large bases have stockpiled a terrifying amount of weapons and equipment, ammunition, and all kinds of necessary life support materials, and the weapons and equipment are mainly light and medium mortars, assault rifles, sniper rifles, rocket launchers, anti-tank missiles, and portable anti-aircraft missiles, and the ammunition includes grenades, mines, artillery shells, and bullets, both American-made and Soviet-made."
"Flour, rice and canned food are the main sources of subsistence support, and fresh vegetables, fruits, chickens, ducks, fish, and especially beef can be transported at any time, which have regular suppliers, as well as butter, honey, cane sugar, coffee, cigarettes, beverages, juices and fresh milk."
"A number of department stores can supply tens of thousands of commodities to meet the daily consumption of the US military, automobile repair shops and special vehicle repair shops can provide repair and maintenance for US military vehicles, five large hospitals can provide 10,000 beds, 100 modern ambulances, a sufficient number of medicines, advanced equipment and thoughtful service, and more than 300 surgeons are waiting for the wounded of the US military at any time."
"On the territory of Afghanistan there are a thousand gas stations and fifty oil depots, ten airstrips and five large airstrips, a transport company consisting of a thousand transport vehicles, a hundred C-141 tactical transport aircraft and two hundred transport helicopters on standby, which can meet the needs of the US military in the shortest possible time."
"In order to encourage U.S. troops to spend on our territory and stimulate the local economy, we have also built a number of bars, nightclubs and beauty salons, oh, female soldiers need to be beautiful, and even built a private club for the entertainment of senior American generals." General Logistics Minister Myers made a briefing.
"In accordance with your instructions, we mobilized two Cossack mechanized infantry divisions and one mountain light infantry division, equipped with two A-10 attack aircraft aviation wings and two F-111 fighter-bomber aviation wings, with an additional military police army aviation combat brigade and an armored brigade, ready to be airlifted to Afghanistan. In addition, there is a base guard division in the area, which is composed of five mechanized brigades, one armored brigade and one anti-aircraft artillery brigade. Thompson, commander-in-chief of the mercenary corps, said.
"Our military satellites can provide intelligence to the Taliban, our Atlantis satellite navigation system, which can provide positioning services, and the Global Hawk unmanned reconnaissance aircraft can also provide accurate information, but they must be cautious when dispatching." Irina said.
"The special forces will send a number of elite squads, armed with long-range combat weapons such as sniper rifles, light mortars, portable anti-aircraft missiles and anti-tank missiles, to assist the Taliban in attacking the US military's logistics transport convoys and logistics bases, especially transport planes and transport helicopters, to destroy the opponent's airlift supply capacity to the greatest extent, so as to force the other side to rely on our logistics supplies to sustain the war." In addition, it will also snipe the opponent's important generals and senior commanders, disrupting the opponent's combat deployment. Eric said.
"I have established secret contacts with the Taliban military command through the agents of the shadow organization in Afghanistan, and I have not come forward, and I have appointed a liaison person, so as not to be detected by the United States, the other party does not know our intentions, and thinks that it is a resistance organization full of hatred for the United States." This was stated by the Chief of the General Staff, Khante.
After attending the launching and outfitting ceremony of the aircraft carrier in Cam Ranh Bay, Wu Chen arrived in Afghanistan directly by special plane to make a final inspection of the war that would break out in a few months.
In view of the importance of this war, the top leaders of the mercenary corps gathered together at the headquarters of the security forces near the military airfield, which is also the headquarters of the base guard division, and if the war starts, this is the headquarters of the Afghan garrison.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I don't want this war between the United States and Afghanistan to really happen, it will mean the destruction of thousands of families, and the number of civilian casualties will reach hundreds of thousands, but the choice of war is not in our hands, the intelligence services pay close attention to the activities of local radical groups, collect their information, I am ready to give an early warning to the US government, it is one thing not to listen, not to say another thing, this is called doing everything to obey the destiny of God!" Wu Chen said.
