Chapter 86 Arms Sales

Capturing prisoners has become a favorite game for mercenaries recently, and the mercenaries who are organized to attack in small teams often come back to capture hundreds of scattered Thai troops, and in the face of thunderous and powerful offensives, the Thai army is often crushed at the touch of a button, and the rocket artillery feast three days ago has terrified the Thai army.

Rocket artillery is not the patent of Thunder, the Soviets have it, the Germans have it, and the United States is also trying to produce new rocket artillery, but directly use rocket artillery in the form of clusters as ground offensive firepower to deal with infantry, which I am afraid only Zhao Zhi can do. Soviet and German rocket artillery was used only when it encountered armored units or unattackable fortified positions, and only the nouveau riche Thunder would use rocket artillery against infantry, and it was also the ineffective Thai infantry.

Roger is now full of contempt for Zhao Zhi, and often makes sarcastic remarks about Zhao Zhi as an upstart commander, how good those rocket shells should be used against the Japanese mechanized troops, at this time Roger completely forgot the Pentagon's strategy of trying to suppress the thunder. "Lieutenant colonel, in my opinion, these soldiers under my command are the most important, weapons and ammunition are just tools of war, and my arsenal can produce the ammunition needed for rocket artillery, which is nothing more than the consumption of some resources." Zhao Zhi's answer was even more envious to Roger, Thunder himself had an arsenal, which was an incomparable advantage for the US army.

"Zhao, do you have any plans to sell these weapons?" Looking at the new sniper rifle that Ye Kong was fiddling with, Luo asked in a rhetorical manner. The U.S. military also trained a large number of snipers, but they still used Springfield 1903 five-round bolt-action sniper rifles with bullet bridges, like the five-round magazine-fed semi-automatic sniper rifles used by the Thunder Snipers, which the U.S. military did not have. Roger didn't know where Thunder's guns were made, but he knew what this new sniper rifle meant.

Taking the sniper rifle in Ye Kong's hand, Zhao Zhi smiled at Roger, "Lieutenant Colonel, do you mean this sniper rifle of ours?" I can only tell you that there are very few of these new guns, and I only have enough to equip my snipers. You know that our Thunder mercenaries have close to 1,000 snipers, and if you count the snipers in the Jewish army, I'm afraid the number will increase several times, so it's hard for me to have rich guns to sell. ”

Damn, I thought you were blind and turned a blind eye to this sniper rifle, didn't Ye Kong sit here every day and wipe his gun just waiting for your kid to take the bait. Looking at Roger's almost crazy look, Zhao Zhi secretly laughed wildly in his heart, since the day of the test launch of the new weapon, Zhao Zhi has been calculating Roger, Zhao Zhi brought back a large number of materials when he returned from Europe, including several light weapons production lines from Britain and France, Jewish military technicians have modified these weapon production lines according to the Cana Rand production line, and the gun production line in Zhao Zhi's hand can now roll off the assembly line every day more than 500 various firearms and a large number of bullets.

The weapons and ammunition produced by the Kunming Arsenal are exclusively for mercenary troops and Jewish troops, and the Burmese mercenary troops who were sent by Thunder to fight the Japanese army are equipped with Japanese-style weapons captured by Thunder, with the stability of Burma, a large number of weapons and ammunition have been piled up in the warehouses of the Kunming Arsenal, Zhao Zhi cannot let these things be moldy, the Nationalist Government and the US military are the best next home, Zhao Zhi intends to exchange them for heavy weapons or planes from the United States.

Roger was really not very satisfied with Zhao Zhi's answer, and kept shaking his head and said, "Zhao, I thought we were already friends, you are very bad like this, in the words of you Chinese, you are not enough friends." Roger's stiff Chinese words made Zhao Zhi and Ye Kong laugh, it seems that this guy has not been idle during his time in the headquarters, at least he has learned a lot of Chinese.

"Zhao, I know that your thunder is very capable of fighting, the Thais are not your opponents, and coordinating between you and Thailand is just an order from the Pentagon, I am an American soldier and can only act according to the orders of the Pentagon, you can't blame me." Roger innocently made a copy of Zhao Zhi unwilling to follow orders, "I am very interested in your firearms, I believe that those guys in the Pentagon and Congress must also be interested, I hope you can consider the possibility of selling the design drawings of this firearm to the United States, after all, the manufacturing capacity of our American arsenal is incomparable to yours." ”

Mom, this guy doesn't just want this sniper rifle, he actually wants to take the design drawings with him, he doesn't speak all the time, he just sits on the side and watches the excitement, he grew up in Germany, he knows what the weapon design drawings mean. If Mr. himself really gave the design drawings of this sniper rifle to the Americans, then the existing advantages of the Thunder would no longer exist, and the Americans who got the weapon drawings would probably leave the Thunder and sell this sniper rifle alone, and the profits in it would not be less than that of a small country like Vietnam.

Seeing that Ye Kong had a precursor to a riot, Zhao Zhi just glanced over, and then smiled at Roger, "Lieutenant Colonel, I don't think it's a good idea to sell the design drawings to you, you must know that this sniper rifle is the exclusive patent of our thunder, and it is impossible for other countries in the world to have it, maybe you can make the same firearm in the future, but it has been registered in your United States, I think if you want to buy it, it can only be a finished firearm, as for the design drawing, it is impossible, Because the blueprints are locked in a safe at the Bank of Florida. ”

"Okay, okay, I know there's something wrong with what I just offered." Roger explained to Zhao Zhi, and then said, "Since you said that you can't sell the blueprints, can I understand that you Thunder can sell finished firearms?" When Roger heard Zhao Zhi say that the design of the sniper rifle was locked in the safe of the Bank of Florida, he could already conclude that Zhao Zhi's statement that the firearms were only enough to equip his own soldiers was a cover, and it was likely that this sniper rifle had been mass-produced in the arsenal of the Lockman family, and it was good to get the weapon if he couldn't get the blueprint.

"Come on, Zhao, let's sit down like a gentleman and talk about it, you have to know what this sniper rifle means to our soldiers." Roger graciously pulled out a chair for Zhao Zhi and invited Zhao Zhi to sit down, "Let's not talk about whether we can end this damn war early, the ultra-long range and magazine supply of this firearm alone can reduce the casualties of the soldiers." You must know that one of my brothers is a sniper, and I hope he will come home alive, so I have to talk to you about the sale of this firearm to us, both publicly and privately. ”

Zhao Zhi expressed sympathy for Roger in a timely manner, but he did not give an inch in the price of the sniper rifle, and Zhao Zhike could directly buy three Springfield 1903 sniper rifles in the United States. After several rounds of price tug-of-war, in the end, Zhao Zhi "seeed" Roger and Mary's face and slightly lowered the sale price, but even so, it still made the Pentagon's top brass secretly scold Zhao Zhi for being a vampire.

The Rockman family's arsenal warehouse in Florida has long been full of this new sniper rifle, the family's bodyguard escort team has long been equipped with this firearm, and the small arms experts in the weapons laboratory have been experimenting with the production of newer sniper rifles, and it is believed that in the near future, the US military that has purchased a large number of such sniper rifles will find that their gun models are outdated. The two sides have reached an agreement that they will only be able to buy the number of guns after the Pentagon sends people to Florida to get the sample guns, and if nothing else, the deal could bring millions of dollars or more to Zhao Zhi and the Rockman family.

"Zhao, can I ask, do you buy that kind of rocket launcher?" Early the next morning, Roger came to Zhao Zhi again with a roar, the Pentagon had already obtained a sample of the sniper rifle, all the test data were satisfactory to the military, and the order of 100,000 pieces made people look red. Roger, who received the Pentagon's commendation, intends to make persistent efforts and instead turn his attention to the Thunder's rocket artillery, which seems to have a longer range and move faster than the rocket artillery weapons developed by the United States.

"Oh, Lieutenant Colonel, we are friends, you opened your mouth, how can I be embarrassed to refuse, let's sit down and have breakfast first, and talk about the price later." Zhao Zhi's mood is undoubtedly exceptionally good, this Roger is really a treasure sent to him by the Americans, I didn't expect to be able to sell weapons while sitting in the headquarters in Thailand, it seems that the White Russian mercenaries of the escort team will be better to Roger, if something goes wrong, who will help him sell weapons to the US military.

After the rocket launcher, Roger started the idea of mercenary special bombs again, flash grenades, smoke bombs, hand-thrown incendiary bombs, all these things that the US army does not have are Roger's targets, the armored division commanded by Joey is fighting hotly in front, and Roger is pestering Zhao Zhitian to squat in the command headquarters every day to discuss the purchase price of weapons. Ye Kong had long been scared away by Roger's fanaticism, but Zhao Zhi, who was forcibly pulled by Roger, was in pain and happy, Roger was basically talking about the price for a penny, but the sale of these weapons brought a large amount of profits made Zhao Zhi excited.

Zhao Zhi was busy discussing the price of arms sales with Roger, and the Thais were not idle, and the Japanese military radio inspection vehicles on the Thai side were almost tired these days. God knows what's wrong with the Thunder, these days they will use the radio to contact the United States with high frequency every morning, are they secretly planning a conspiracy with the Americans? The strange high frequency of the radio waves has alarmed both the Thai side and the Japanese army, and most of Thailand has fallen into the hands of the thunder, if the thunder unites with the United States again, then Thailand will really have no way to live.
