Chapter 570: Matchmaker

In fact, Saudi Arabia's perception of China is still very good, a large part of which comes from the third Indo-Pakistani war, in this war, India simply and neatly sent troops to occupy Bangladesh, which was still part of the **** at that time, and dismembered the **** into the current **** country and Bangladesh, completing its goal of hegemony in South Asia.

In the war, the **** army was defeated by the Indians, and the eastern **** army was forced to surrender, but the pilots trained in China drove the J-6 fighters purchased from the other side to perform well in the war, and even Huaxia also handed over the active Type 59 tanks directly to the ****, and the relationship between the two sides became closer and closer.

And the relationship between **** and Saudi Arabia has always been close, the small days of the *** fort are counting on Riyadh, affected by this, the relationship between Saudi Arabia and Huaxia is also good, at least there is no demonization, but to wait for the two sides to get closer, you have to wait for the business order trade after that!

After a few days in Saudi Arabia, Shepard drew up a decent list, all of which were based on the technical and tactical skills of the Afghan guerrillas, and Shepard did not write about any impractical things such as tanks and artillery, which were not realistic for the Afghan guerrillas.

He listed all light and flexible types, such as all kinds of small arms, including Type 56 semi-automatic rifles, Type 56 submachine guns, Type 56 squad light machine guns, Type 67 machine guns, Type 69 40mm bazookas, Type 65 recoilless guns, and most importantly, 107mm rocket launchers!

These things are the most urgently needed things of the Afghan villagers, in fact, at the beginning, the Afghans have already obtained part of the weapons in the list through ****, and the villagers have the best evaluation of 107-mm rockets!

Not only the villagers, but even the Soviets had a headache for the 107 rocket launcher, but the Afghans had a limited number of similar weapons in their hands, and sometimes they even missed the target, wasting ammunition in vain.

But even so, the Soviets evaluated it as a nightmare, because their convoy was very bad at protecting against this kind of rockets, and after a rain of bullets, people turned on their backs, so the Soviets sent special forces to clean it up.

The scarce number of rocket artillery is still like this, then if there were a little more of them, the Soviets would definitely explode even more!

Of course, this is not to say that Europe and the United States do not have similar weapons, but the problem is that whether it is the K153 rocket launcher or the 136 anti-tank missile, the price is more expensive.

After rushing to Fort ***, the **** side immediately sent a request for a meeting in accordance with the requirements of Saudi Arabia, and explained the origin straightforwardly.

Shepard even wrote in Chinese characters on the document the words "Rich and noble, people are stupid and money comes quickly".

Subsequently, the local diplomatic department also responded to the request after consulting the relevant parties, and found a secret place under the arrangement of ****.

Because Saudi Arabia and China have not yet established diplomatic relations, these things must be kept secret.

For this meeting, the **** Tri-Services Intelligence Bureau also specially arranged a translator, but after everyone sat down, before the interpreter could speak, Shepard had already taken the lead in speaking.

"Dude, this tea smells good, can you please bring me a drink?"

The eyes of the relevant people sitting opposite Shepard were straight, after all, he was also the first time he had seen the Americans in the Saudi team in the **** territory, and he still spoke a very authentic Beijing accent.

However, the comrades concerned were still very generous in making another cup of tea, and even ordered someone to prepare a few more bags as a souvenir when the other party left.

And after Shepard's gag, the slightly tense atmosphere between the two sides suddenly relaxed a lot.

"I didn't know Mr. Shepard was so fluent in speaking!"

"Self-taught, I know eight foreign languages, and I have learned a little bit of African dialects, after all, the job requires!"

"That's a linguistic genius!"

"It's all for the esteemed Governor, and I've heard that he also knows eight foreign languages!"

So the comrades concerned again

began to speak, no, why did this foreigner mention Premier Zhou's eyes lit up, what the hell is this guy doing?

However, Shepard's appearance of not being a fake still won some favor from the other party.

Then, after a flurry of formulaic diplomatic rhetoric, it was time for everyone to get straight to the point.

"We need to buy weapons from you and send them to the Soviets in Afghanistan, rest assured, these are all heavyweights, money is not a problem, even we can pay money before goods, you don't have to say anything to refuse, the big bosses behind these big dogs are even more heavyweights, and they can buy more things!"

After Shepard finished speaking, he was also stunned, it's over, it seems that his mouth is too fast just now, and he said something that shouldn't be said, but looking at the translator from **** on the side, he was also a little confused, Shepard immediately put his mind at ease, this guy doesn't seem to understand, so there is no need to worry about the Saudi side! Look at the book

"Fifty million, we brought fifty million, dollars, green tickets, not rubles or rupees, it's knife music!"

In order not to let the relevant comrades sitting opposite him prevaricate by any diplomatic rhetoric, Shepard directly raised his right hand and gestured a five.

And the words of the comrade were also frightened back by him, and then, everyone looked at the middle-aged man sitting in the main seat, that is, opposite Shepard.

You must know that Huaxia's foreign exchange reserves at this moment are only 2 billion US dollars, so this 50 million may be just a small amount for Saudi Arabia's big dogs, but for Huaxia, it is a big number.

So, the pressure came to the comrade concerned, and after thinking for more than ten seconds, he took a sip of the teacup, then gently put the teacup down and replied.

"We can't be the master of this, we have to ask for instructions from the country!"

"It's okay, you just have to ask for instructions, in addition, this is a preliminary list, I don't know much about your weapons, you have been dealing with the Soviets for so long, you should be able to recommend some more effective, don't worry, the price is not a problem, if you don't want dollars, we can also pay with oil!"

Shepard didn't plan to do any small actions such as kickbacks in this list, because once he can successfully connect these two parties, he will not get less benefits, and there is no need to lose big because of small things, so he is very sincere, no matter whether the money is spent or not, he will not take a penny, and will return more and make up for less!
