Chapter 121: I Have a Friend

"Why don't you talk about the big-breasted female secretary?"

Smith gave a rare look of embarrassment.

"Where's the car?"

"The car, the car is a little problem!"

"What's the problem?"

"It's just not in the U.S. anymore!"

"Who is stopping my car?"

Shepard immediately took the case, damn, you can also take the goods that Lao Tzu likes, believe it or not, I sent a neuropathic gunman to you?

"U.S. Army!"

That's okay, they have more guns!

Shepard replaced himself with an iced Coke with chocolate cream, then sat back on the couch and waited for Smith to explain to him.

And there are no big twists and turns, it's nothing more than that his things were used by the army to support friendly neighbors.

"To those Vietnamese, isn't it the same as giving Charlie, we deserve to be the arsenal of democracy!"

Shepard crossed Erlang's legs and began to be yin and yang, and Smith couldn't say anything because of the loss, so he could only let Shepard vent first.

In fact, this is not Shepard's venting, after all, from the perspective of a senior enemy, no one can compare to Uncle Sam.

Of course, there is no need to mention the matter of World War II, selling strategic resources to Germany and selling scrap steel to RB are all trivial, since the beginning of the war in Vietnam, the United States has provided a lot of assistance to the South Vietnamese government, sending guns and artillery, until they found that no matter how they send, the Vietnamese alone still could not save the Vietnamese, and the US military began to intervene in Vietnam.

And in this process, the U.S. military also has to thank Secretary of Defense McNamara for the grand blueprint, the other side turned this war into a KPI competition, so the U.S. military began to brush people's heads in Vietnam in order to complete the KPI, and also achieved a high achievement of hundreds of kills, but the head brushed up, but there was no trace of the goddess of victory, tossed in Vietnam for so long, the dead people spent money and could not get benefits, so the disheartened United States decided to withdraw.

The Americans felt that the poor combat effectiveness of the South Vietnamese army was a problem of equipment, so after the withdrawal, South Vietnam was left with a huge army, navy, and air force, of which the size of the air force alone could be called the fourth in the world.

These weapons include 1,599 field artillery pieces of caliber of 105 mm or more, 2,044 tanks and armored vehicles, 1,556 fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters, and a fleet of 672 amphibious ships, 20 anti-mine ships, 450 patrol ships, 56 service vessels and 242 small speedboats.

So with these weapons, the South Vietnamese National Army must be fighting very well, right?

In April 1975, Saigon was liberated!

That is to say, since the withdrawal of US troops from Vietnam in 1973, these equipment have been handed away within two years, and everyone in later generations is laughing at the back and forth between a certain P5 power and its neighbors, but in fact, everyone has a moment of shame, that is, 50 steps and 100 steps.

That's why Shepard felt speechless, but the army has sent so many, so he doesn't care about so few!

"So what now?"

"Let's go to Vietnam!"

Smith scratched his head, just in time to get rid of the here in the Americas, and he was a lot more happy.

"Do you have familiar friends?"

"It's not a friend, it's just familiar!"

"That's enough!"

So, before the ass was hot in the United States, Shepard followed Smith on the Navy transport ship and staggered all the way to Saigon.

Here, Shepard meets Smith's good friend, a Navy Colonel in charge of cargo docking at the military port.

"Long time no see, Dunn!"

"yes, long time no see, you old thing, you've gained a lot of weight!"

When old friends met, it was natural to have a cordial greeting, and Colonel Dunn's office was also an eye-opener for Shepard.

Dozens of dynastic antiquities from Vietnam and even other Southeast Asian regions, rare specimens, and precious ornaments are piled up, and if it weren't for the military map and the national flag hanging in the room, it would not be an exaggeration to say that this is a cultural toy store.

"If you have a favorite, you can pick it!"

Colonel Dunn saw Shepard's gaze, and immediately heartily let him choose whatever he wanted, while Shepard shook his head.

"Thank you, Colonel, but I don't like this very much!"

"You're a lot less fun, young man!"

Dunn picked up a jade pipe and took a sharp puff, then puffed out a large smoke ring.

"This place is hell for a lot of people, but for me, it's heaven!"

"I see!"

Shepard nodded, in charge of the flow of goods in a military port, this position is a good fat shortage, after all, there will definitely be losses in cargo transportation, but how much loss, it is not the freighter who has the final say, but the one in front of him.

"Listen to Smith, you run a contractor company in Africa?"

"Well, it's just a little fight! Can't compare to you! ”

"What's that, I'm just the surface scenery, I have to play up and down, I can't compare to you!"

Although Shepard smiled and nodded yes, it was actually strange to be able to believe it, and it was strange that he could work stably in this position for several years, and it was strange that he could make less money!

"Since you're here, then don't be polite, although I don't have much of this thing, I can still solve a little trouble for you, so, if you need anything, just open your mouth, don't be polite!"

"Then I'll get straight to the point, I need six V100 armored vehicles, three more Huey helicopters, preferably in the gunboat type, and a thousand rounds of rockets, and machine gun bullets, and if there are bird helicopters, it's better to have two too!"

As soon as Shepard finished speaking, he immediately let Dunn get a puff of cloudy smoke stuck in his lungs.

"Ahem, wait, young man, what did you just say?"

"V100 armored car, Huey helicopter in the gunboat type, rockets, bird helicopters!"

Shepard repeated it again.

"Oh my God, Smith, are you kidding me?"

"What do you think?"

Smith, who had been silent on the sidelines, gave an intriguing smile.

Dunn, on the other hand, quickly became serious.

"If you're here to check something, then I can't comment, but if you're really here to buy something, then I'm more than welcome, but I want to make it clear, if you lie to someone, it won't end well!"

"Colonel Dunn, we're just here to buy something to defend ourselves, after all, Africa is very chaotic, and there, we always need something to protect ourselves!"

"So, you're not kidding me, are you?"

"We pay in gold!"

Shepard pulled a small bag of broken gold out of his pocket and threw it in front of the other party.

"You can take a look!"

And Dunn finally confirmed that the two guys in front of him were not joking, and he immediately resumed his previous enthusiasm.

"So, how about staying here for a few days, and then I'll show you around?"
