Chapter 215: Finally Rich

"The value of this wealth is simply immeasurable!" Seeing these things that had been shipped to Islamabad, Zia-ul-Haq's eyes were already straight.

These days, Zia-ul-Haq was full of anticipation every day, and now, when all this wealth was in front of his eyes, he was still surprised, and he thought of the huge amount, but it was so large that Pakistan's treasury was too shabby in comparison.

"Mr. President, we have fulfilled our mission and have finally completed our mission." "A lot of this wealth is collectible, and we can get a better price through an auction, but we can't show it to the public for the time being, and that's the gold we can use right now," Mhammad said. ”

The amount of gold is very large, hundreds of tons, and in the future, when settling with foreign countries, it is enough to use gold as a hard currency, and all countries are willing to ask for it.

"Yes, the rest will be sealed in the treasury first, Mhammad, you have done a great job this time." Zia-Haq said.

"Mr. President, our task is still very heavy, we have to negotiate with all sides, especially Western Europe, the introduction of their industry, the establishment of a government in Afghanistan, we can not delay any longer, by the way, have you put forward our ideas to the American side?"

"Proposed, the Americans are considering." Zia-Haq said.

Although the incident in Afghanistan at this time, but now, with the strong support of the United States, this matter can be carried out, otherwise, with Pakistan's military strength, it will really annoy the Soviets, and the consequences will be very unoptimistic.

Mhammad nodded: "I believe that the Americans will definitely agree, and after they agree, we can apply for some more good things." ”

If you want to completely control the airspace in the mountainous areas of northern Afghanistan, it is not enough to rely on those two E-2 AWACS aircraft. Whether the Americans want it or not, they have to use the E-3 AWACS aircraft, even if it is leased, they have to send them to Pakistan. There are also electronic jammers, and that one is not enough, at least four. After all, now it's the Soviets who grab meat to eat.

"Yes, Mhammad, the Americans will definitely agree, we need to make efforts to introduce industry now, we need someone to go to Western Europe and start a series of negotiations." Zia-ulq said: "This is a difficult task as well. ”

The basic industries of the eastern countries are relatively sound. Metallurgy, chemical industry, machinery manufacturing, are very comprehensive, in the late 70s, with the continued development of Sino-Pakistani friendship, the Oriental countries helped Pakistan, the establishment of heavy machinery factory, heavy electrical factory, Taxila heavy industrial plant, Pakistan aviation industry complex, Pakistan engineering company, Karachi shipyard, Pakistan machine tool factory, Pakistan arsenal, Pakistan steel mill and a series of factories. Aid in the construction of these factories. Let Pakistan step into the ranks of industrialized countries, but. The countries of the East are not good at high technology, while Western Europe has an advantage in high technology.

"Yes, in addition to basic industries, we should also introduce advanced technology, Mr. President, I think. We should introduce a production line for heavy trucks, as well as introduce more nuclear power plants. ”

With metallurgy, chemical industry, heavy trucks can be produced. The automobile industry is the basic industry of a country. Only when a qualified car can be produced can the success of industrialization be proven. Of course, Mhammad would prefer to introduce aircraft production lines, but unfortunately, Western countries will not export these production lines, and the only ally that can be relied on, China, is still relatively backward in this regard.

In the process of industrial development in Pakistan, it will face the problem of energy shortage, and the introduction of nuclear power plants can alleviate the situation of power shortage. Today, Pakistan has a 137MWE Canadian PWR, which has been operating under international safety supervision since 1971, but the fuel for this nuclear reactor is purchased, and when Pakistan has more nuclear power plants, it will need to produce enough nuclear fuel on its own. Pakistan, on the other hand, is not a signatory to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and is exempt from IAEA supervision.

"Yes, it's very important." Nur Khan said: "Mhammad, I think you are the best representative to go to the negotiations this time. ”

Mhammad suddenly shook his head, go by himself?

………

United States, White House.

"It's a good move." Reagan took a cigar in his mouth and said to the man in front of him, "I just wonder, how can Pakistan have the courage to do this?" ”

Supporting Afghanistan, establishing a government, and being responsible for protecting the security of Afghanistan's airspace will blow up the lungs of the Soviets, and this is what the United States would like to see the most.

"They don't have the courage, that's why they need our support." Vice President George W. Bush said: "They told us that they would only dare to do this if we supported it." And we need more than just verbal support. ”

The Pakistanis also seem to be starting to get slippery, and when the United States says yes, they will definitely start asking for all sorts of things, there's almost no doubt about it.

"Even so, it's good for us." "It's long overdue for Afghanistan to establish a new regime, and if they dare to do so, we, the entire Western world, will fully support it," Reagan said. ”

Looking at the president's attitude, Bush did not continue, he knew that the president's determination had been decided, but Bush had a strong premonition that the strength of the Free Afghan Army was getting bigger and bigger, and moreover, it would faintly become a united country, and would such a powerful force really serve the interests of the United States?

The people there have always been unruly.

"Let our ambassadors know and we'll give it our full support." Reagan said.

When the U.S. ambassador met with President Zia-ul-Haq again, he saw Lieutenant General Muhammad, who had not appeared for a long time, sitting on the sidelines, and immediately felt a sigh in his heart, "The presence of this guy shows that the Pakistani side really wants to take advantage of this opportunity to rob again, and he can't help but smile bitterly: "General Muhammad, it's a pleasure to see you." ”

"I'm happy too." "Our friends in the United States, do you support our new plan? ”

"We the United States, fully support." "The Afghan people are finally about to build their own country, and the support of our West has not been in vain," Lord said. ”

"However, we will face repression from the Soviets." "The Soviets' air force, in particular, will put more pressure on our air force, so we want to get E-3 AWACS aircraft and three EC-130H electronic jammers," Mhammad said. ”

Mhammad was very direct.

"I'm sorry, the E-3 AWACS aircraft is our strategic AWACS aircraft, which can only be sold to the NATO alliance group, and your country can't reach it for the time being, haven't we already leased two additional E-2 AWACS aircraft to your country?" Lord said that before he came, Lord had guessed about the AWACS aircraft, and Pakistan was simply persevering in this regard.

"But now it's different, the mountainous areas of northern Afghanistan are our defense zone." "The E-2 AWACS aircraft did not have a long enough range, so we had to fly over northern Afghanistan to monitor all the air conditions, and when the Soviets attacked, they would probably be the first to shoot down our AWACS," Mhammad said. Anyway, these two planes are on lease from us, and besides, the operators on them are your naval personnel, and if they are shot down, the damage will not be ours. ”

Mhammad was very direct. Although Pakistan prepared air police personnel at the beginning, the two E-2 early warning planes that flew directly from the US aircraft carrier were forbidden by the US side to board the plane because they contained US Navy secrets, and they were completely operated by them.

Mhammad's attitude is very simple, don't support now, and when the time comes, it will be shot down, and the dead will be Americans.

The flesh on Lord's face suddenly trembled, so vicious!

"I will report this matter to the president, and if the president agrees, it will be only in the form of lend-lease at most." Lord said. The United States will never sell the E-3 AWACS aircraft to Pakistan.

"As for the electronic jammer, we can consider exporting, I wonder if you have enough funds?" Lord asked Zia-ul-Haq.

The United States has too much military aid, and no matter how much free support it provides, the United States will indeed be unable to bear it. Now, Pakistan supports the establishment of a government in Afghanistan, and the United States is ready to provide Pakistan with some missiles for free, which is already the greatest support.

"For the cause of Afghanistan, we in Pakistan will give our full support, although our foreign exchange reserves are quite small and the economy is not developed, but for the sake of our Afghan compatriots, we have an unshirkable responsibility." "Our government has decided to use our gold reserves and buy directly from you," Zia-ul-Haq said. ”

Tapping into gold reserves? When the financial turmoil comes, gold reserves can calm prices and stabilize the economy.

Zia-Haq looked at the surprised expression on Lord's face, and was very proud in his heart, gold reserves! As the president of a poor country, I worry about money every day, and now, I can finally stop worrying! Those piles of gold bars are the solid backing of Pakistan!

"In that case, we can export." Lord said yes right away.

"Now, Mr. Lord, a free and democratic Afghanistan is finally about to be built." "Are we going to do something about Afghanistan together? ”

Lord nodded, watched as Muhamad took out a not thin book: "This is the material that needs support preliminarily drawn up by the Afghan People's Government, and I also ask your country to support it." ”

Lord looked at that thing, became more vigilant, took it, and saw the first page, which said that in order for Afghanistan to develop its economy, it needs to mine ore, and below is some mining equipment... Although the unit price is not high, there are too many of them, which adds up to a lot of investment. (To be continued......)
