Chapter 393: Giving Benefits
Joga didn't know much about Eric's job and didn't know how to comfort him for what he called 'getting caught'.
It's a bit of a fuck, and when a person just thinks he has a bright future, a basin of cold water is poured on his head, and it must feel very sour.
Joga couldn't help with this, because by looking at Eric's face, he could already roughly guess who wanted to trick him.
It was certainly not from his side, and if he had been betrayed, he would have behaved desperately by now.
Then it can only be someone in the opponent's camp.
Qiao Jia didn't want to guess the specific situation, because this matter was a big trouble.
It's not about who touches and who dies, but on this matter, once the United States and France take the wrong position, it will stink for a long time.
If Eric's so-called 'being trapped' is true, then it means that Lao Mei is at a loss in this matter.
Once the inside story is exposed, it will naturally be up to the head of the CIA, Afika, to carry the thunder.
Eric was also unlucky, and the only good news now was that he knew in advance his possible situation and could make a series of contingencies, so he ......
"I may need to move to Benghazi, Libya, and I need to find out what is going on.
Jackal, I need reliable security! ”
Saying that, Eric didn't wait for Joga to speak, and said: "I can't increase the security budget that has been set, but I will find a way to increase the budget of the Afika military base."
Jackal, I need help, and in return, I can find a way to hand over the logistics contract for the military base in Mali to P· B。 ”
If raising the logistics budget is just icing on the cake, then the logistics contract for the Mali military base is the reward.
This is already the maximum extent that Eric himself can influence.
From here, it can be seen that Eric is very nervous, although I don't know if the guess is correct, but in this situation, going alone to Afika, he must pull a reliable ally for himself, no better than P· B is a more suitable candidate.
In order to completely pull Choga back, Eric was silent for a long time after proposing the 'reward', and then said: "If you are deliberately targeted by the French, I can provide a little political help.
At the very least, I can guarantee that if the French want to use force in Central Africa, you will get the news in advance. ”
This kind of kindness cannot be refused, and Central Africa is Choga's stronghold, where there is no room for loss.
If France wants to reassert itself, it is unlikely that it will do it on its own, ideally by supporting an opposition force or intervening in the event of a coup d'état in Central Africa.
Whether France is capable of supporting a strong rebel force is still a question, so the latter is more likely.
Joga even speculated that the French might already know certain information, such as the movements of the 'Armed Forces of God' and the 'Diamond Warlords of Sétaka', so they wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to make a small move.
If it was just that, Joga felt that he could not give them a chance.
But to be on the safe side, Joga thought about it and looked at Eric and said, "P· B now has a couple of Super Tucano, if I have two field air defense companies, will I violate certain restrictions on defense companies? ”
When Eric heard this, he was surprised and said: "What do you want anti-aircraft missiles for?" ”
Choga sighed and said: "If everyone follows the rules, of course I don't need anti-aircraft missiles, but I know very well that France's influence in Central Africa will decrease with the development of the steel industry chain."
I'm afraid that one day the French will go crazy!
My base is there, and if the French think it's okay to bomb it by mistake, then my hard work will be over. ”
Eric has a deep relationship in the arms group, he thought for a long time, and finally shook his head and said: "The defense company does not have clear restrictions on this issue, as long as the countries surrounding Central Africa have no opinion, it is not a big problem for you to have anti-aircraft missiles."
But as soon as the United States sells you medium-range anti-aircraft missiles, it is provoking its allies.
I have a way of getting around Congress and selling you some anti-aircraft missiles, but you should understand the risks.
Two field air defense companies need anti-aircraft missiles, and this little money is not worth the risk of anyone. ”
Saying that, Eric looked at Choga with a slightly disappointed look, and he said with a smile: "The cheapest medium-range anti-aircraft missile in the United States, MIM-23 'Eagle', the whole system plus missiles is at least nearly 10 million US dollars, you should think of getting some 'beech' from your collaborators instead of thinking about this."
Serbia has signed a contract with China for the purchase of anti-aircraft missiles, and it is estimated that the replacement will be completed within a year or two, and their old 'beech' will always need a way out.
Of course, if you don't like the 'Beech', then I can help you find a way to get two 'Avenger air defense systems'.
This vehicle-mounted short-range anti-aircraft missile has a range similar to that of the Stinger, but it has a very good defense effect against UAVs, low-altitude fixed-wing aircraft, and missiles, and the most important thing is that it is fully automatic.
The air base near Washington is equipped with the 'Avenger' as the main force of near-air defense.
Don't look at it as an old thing from the 80s of the last century, but after many upgrades and improvements by the army, the power of the 'Avenger' has been increasing.
However, recently the Army is applying for a budget to upgrade the medium-range air defense system, and then there will be a part of the "Avenger" that may never see the light of day.
As a partner contractor of the Ministry of Defense, you are eligible to purchase and use the 'Avenger', after all, it is a defensive weapon. ”
Joga was stunned by Eric's words, he took out his mobile phone to check it, and then found out that the so-called 'Avenger' was actually the car version of the 'Stinger'.
A Humvee can carry 8 rounds, and because of its high mobility and the ability to fire on the move, this thing is regarded by the major giants as a key part of the forward area air defense system.
Although this thing has been around since the 80s of the last century, it has not been eliminated so far.
Joga could even do without a launcher, just add a radar to the launcher, and then he himself would be able to 'copy' enough of them to be placed around the base.
This thing is the most advanced in fact, the fully automatic strike system, automatic identification, automatic locking, automatic launch, this thing is a good thing that can save lives in critical periods.
It is basically ineffective against jet fighters, but it has an interception effect on low-altitude targets and even missiles.
Joga is not too demanding, just make a little more combo, and get a set of Afica's version of the 'Iron Dome'.
As for the 'beech'?
I don't know if the 'professor' has enough face in the Jug-Inbert company now?
This medium-range anti-aircraft missile Joga really wanted, and this was the first reaction after learning that France had malicious intentions towards him.
Choga was not afraid of the ground forces at all, because the traffic conditions around Central Africa did not allow the deployment of heavily armored troops, and the soldiers fought the war, and Choga really did not fear anyone.
But in the fight against the great powers, without air supremacy, you can only fight guerrillas.
How could it be possible for Joga to give up the base that he had managed to run with great difficulty?
However, the blatant arrangement of 'beech' is easy to cause unnecessary suspicion, so even if the Ueg Inbert company can get it, it needs to be sent over in a low-key manner, and then secretly deployed.
The most fucked up thing is that Joga also needs to recruit a couple of missilemen.
At this time, Qiao Jia deeply felt that the confrontation between major powers was really a mess that burned money.
Now one of the five hooligans is a little unhappy with himself, and he is terrified, and when he really wants to arm himself, he realizes that it is too expensive!
That is, P· B has only one important base, and one or two sets of 6-haired beech is enough.
If it is replaced by a country that is a little worse, there are more places to be protected, and the economy of that country can collapse just by buying anti-aircraft missiles.
Reaching out and shaking hands with Eric, who had taken out enough chips, Joga said seriously: "Get me two sets of 'Avengers', I don't want cars, just missiles and systems, the price is better not too expensive, I just bought 4 Super Tucano, and there is not much left of the harvest in the Sinaloa treasury." ”
Eric nodded and said: "I'll arrange this matter, I will find a way to let the air base near Washington 'report' two sets of 'Avengers', and then let the manufacturer responsible for the maintenance deal with it for you at a low price."
There are some costs involved, um, I think an Avenger with 8 Stingers would have cost $2.4 million.
Of course, the second-hand goods with defects should be cheaper, and two sets of 800,000 should be about the same......"
Joga knew that it would be a lot of work to do it as Eric.
After thinking about it, he said: "1 million, it takes a lot of favors to talk about this kind of thing empty-handed, since it is a loophole and not a crime, 200,000 should be enough to buy a discount." ”
Eric actually wanted Qiao Jia to recognize his favor at this time, and when he heard that Qiao Jia paid an extra 200,000, he was both relieved and felt that Qiao Jia was a good person, but also a little disappointed, because this level of favor was not enough.
What Eric really wants is a Ministry of Justice relationship behind Joga!
In the end, if he hadn't carried it, he would have chosen to die and break the net.
When the time comes, if someone in the Ministry of Justice had helped, his fate could have been very different.
This is the role of the network woven by Choga, even if he cannot influence the approach of the Ministry of Justice, but with the Ministry of Justice behind him, his value is completely different.
And a smart person like Eric has long seen the value of Joga!
As an important adviser to big people who can interfere in the U.S. military budget, Eric has other chips in his hands.
But those chips are risky, and it's stupid to take them out without confirming the situation.
Thinking about his trip, Eric stood up and said, "I'm rushing back to Washington, D.C., if there's anything else I need to get for you, just call me."
Jackal, I'm sure we'll have a lot of cooperation in the future! ”
Qiao Jia nodded decisively and said: "You can call me if you have any trouble in Afika, I may not be able to solve the problem, but I can save your life as much as possible."
If you get into trouble, remember to run to Central Africa!!
As long as people live, there is a chance to turn the tables!! ”
