Chapter 244: Cam Ranh Bay II

This news immediately alarmed the Americans and frightened the Vietnamese government, the Russian Navy has not made such a big move for a long time, and it is an aircraft carrier and a nuclear-powered missile cruiser, what the hell is it going to do?

The Vietnamese government lodged a strong protest against the Russian fleet, saying that this act of entering Cam Ranh Bay without approval was a violation of the agreement between the two sides. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

But the Fleet Commander's reply was that this is currently a military port leased by Russia, and according to the agreement, we have the right to station ten surface ships and eight submarines, six auxiliary vessels, and to enter and leave at any time until the day when the agreement ends, and that the required number has not yet been reached, and that the approval of your government is not required.

Subsequently, ten Tu-95 strategic bombers, ten Tu-22M3 strategic bombers, and twenty-four Su-27 fighters flew to the airfield in Cam Ranh Bay, and the An-124 strategic transport planes began to continuously increase troops here, and a marine brigade was sent here.

"Are the Russians crazy, they haven't wiped the shit off their buttocks, why did they come here and station, and order the nearby army to strengthen their defenses, but without an order from the Ministry of Defense, no hostilities are allowed, otherwise military law will be engaged!" The Ministry of Defense immediately gave orders to the nearby army.

The unanimous attitude of all countries on this is not to comment, paralyzed, you two have a lease agreement of up to 25 years, and there are still eight years to expire! In other words, the Russian Navy did not violate the rules and did not take any hostile actions, so why did your Vietnamese government panic?

"Selena, my dear beauty agent, you will help me contact the Presidential Palace immediately, our Golden Triangle International Security Company, want to get the permanent lease of Cam Ranh Bay, tomorrow? No, go to your director! Seeing this news, Wu Chen grinned in distress, paralyzed, your Russian Navy is majestic, but how much does it cost Lao Tzu a day!

The Golden Triangle International Security Company has set its sights on Cam Ranh Bay, which is an important base for the expansion of the former Soviet Union, and it is also the only springboard for Russia to intervene in Southeast Asia now.

But the problem is, Russia still has an eight-year lease period, even if you want it, then you have to go eight years later, and you still want to lease it indefinitely, this thing is too difficult, support, our presidential office must support it, this is beneficial to the United States, but it's a bit wishful thinking, right?

Americans like to be unreasonable, so you have to look at the object, and it is quite difficult to be unreasonable with Russia, and the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, in case of a nuclear confrontation situation, you can scare people to death if you think about it, this is not the Cold War period.

"Mr. President, what Thompson said from the Golden Triangle International Security Company, I think it makes a lot of sense, there is nothing that cannot be traded, as long as the Vietnamese government agrees to an indefinite lease, they are responsible for the rest of the things to negotiate, eight years of lease, can I give 100 million dollars a year?" The CIA director explained.

"Why did they spend so much money to make Cam Ranh Bay their naval base?" The president expressed confusion. For a large country like the United States and Russia, this is of great value, and this is for strategic reasons, but a mercenary organization does not seem to be necessary.

"Don't forget the nature of the Golden Triangle International Security Company, which is not just a private military organization, but also an energy business giant who is optimistic about the future of oil and gas resources near Cam Ranh Bay and wants to develop it on a large scale."

"But there is no trust in the top level of the Vietnamese government, from top to bottom, that group of people will not abide by their commitments and agreements, or build a naval base to maintain strategic deterrence in order to protect their interests." The CIA director said.

"That's right, Vietnam has never been a country with a firm position, but we can't clash with the Russian government over this matter, that would not be in the interests of the United States, I agree with the embassy to cooperate with this negotiation, as for whether it can achieve the goal, it depends on how strong the Vietnamese government's fear of the Russian government is." The president said.

It is the U.S. government that has the ability to put pressure on the Russian government, so the Vietnamese foreign minister visited the U.S. ambassador overnight in the hope of getting the support of the United States, that is, he quickly returned to the prime minister's office and reported to the leader the attitude of the United States.

"What, the U.S. government proposed that the Golden Triangle International Security Company wants to lease Cam Ranh Bay on a permanent basis, what are you kidding, it is the main supply base of the Navy Department in the future, how can it be given to a mercenary organization?" The Navy Governor jumped to his feet.

"Also, a good port with such an important location only pays 10 million US dollars in rent every year, why doesn't this company grab it?" The commander of the Air Force said with some indignation, he is unwilling to meddle in the affairs of the Navy, but this money can also be allocated to the Air Force, right?

"Do you think it's better for a Russian to squat at the doorstep, or a mercenary organization to squat at the doorstep? Don't forget that the Golden Triangle International Security Company is an American enterprise, in fact, it is an overseas corps supported by the United States, and all weapons and equipment are active equipment of the US military, except for them, have you ever seen a country with four American aircraft carriers? ”

"If we have a deep cooperation with this company, it means that the relationship with the United States will change significantly, and in the long run, Cam Ranh Bay is not enough to equate the long-term interests with the United States." said the Chief of the General Staff.

"Do you know the strength of this company, whether it is an enterprise that can manufacture a modern conventionally powered aircraft carrier for Saudi Arabia, an enterprise that has the technology to develop and produce fourth-generation fighters, or an enterprise that can manufacture Glorious-class missile cruisers and Bison hovercraft!"

"Look at your naval fleet, how many decent warships are there? And your air force, they are all old-fashioned fighters, and if they really fight, can they maintain air supremacy? If you offend such a company, even if you have money in your hands, where to buy warships and where to buy planes, who will sell it to you, the United States or aggressive Russia? A little strategic sense can't do it! The Minister of Defense said with a sneer.

"This Russian fleet has brought great panic to the people in the country, many people think that there will be a war between the two countries, people near Cam Ranh Bay have begun to evacuate in large numbers, and the government must solve this problem as soon as possible!"

"If this company can get the Russian fleet out and get the lease from the Russian government, we can lease this base to them indefinitely, notify the U.S. Embassy, and ask the head of the company to come and negotiate." The leaders have the final word.
