Chapter 1417 MiG-25 vs J-8 Modified

After a storm, an American quasi-chan died.

It did not cause any negative impact on Du Fei. On the contrary, after Men was strangled, the originally detained materials and two Kuching Yun-8 transport planes were successfully released.

Du Fei achieved his goal and made some people put away their arrogant mentality.

However, this incident also caused Du Fei's reputation in America to be more divided.

Originally, Du Fei was a Huaguo person, and his identity was relatively sensitive.

The last time he assassinated American Shaojiang in South Vietnam, he did not make it public, but was just suspected.

This time, he blatantly assassinated a quasi-chan, although the means were relatively mild, using the method of traffic accidents instead of using guns directly.

Even so, it touched the sensitive nerves of some big American women, who believed that Du Fei would hardly become a qualified convert. This was a hungry wolf that was difficult to tame and could only be used for a short time.

Du Fei didn't care. Anyway, he didn't expect to make America like him all the time from the beginning.

This is a question of position and an objective reality.

For America, what really matters is not the senses, but Du Fei's own strength and whether he can be used more by them.

At the same time, Du Fei has not broken off contact with Sulian.

This is also a factor that some people in America have a bad impression of Du Fei.

For them, if loyalty is not absolute, it is absolutely disloyal.

But for Du Fei, I am not dating you. After being with you, I can't find other friends.

Not only that, after the battle with the Vietnamese army in Zhenla, Du Fei increased his cooperation with Sulian.

Various fruits, vegetables, and seafood were transported to Moscow by plane.

There are also the latest designed TVs, refrigerators, and various small appliances produced in the Kuching Industrial Zone.

In this era, integrated circuits have not yet developed, and the Soviet Union's electronic technology is still the world leader.

In terms of electrical appliance manufacturing, Du Fei's current technical level does not have any advantages.

Even if some of America and Japan's technologies are copied, it can only be considered unsatisfactory.

However, good products cannot be equated with popular products. When the product strength is not good or bad, the appearance design is the key.

Under Du Fei's personal intervention, the appearance design of Kuching's electrical appliances has completely surpassed the limitations of this era, and only a small cost can achieve a high-end effect, at least it looks like it.

Not only Sulian, but also China, are also very popular with this kind of beautiful-looking electrical appliances from Nanyang.

It immediately surpassed the traditional "stupid, big, black and rough" Soviet-style electrical appliances.

At this time, Natasha came.

At the airport in Kuching, Du Fei and Zhu Li came to greet her in person.

Natasha got off a returning Yun-8, and some products from Sulian or Eastern Europe came back with her, but the quantity was not large.

It's not that their products are not good, but at present, Nanyang, and even the entire Huaguo, have limited consumption capacity, and cannot form a trade balance with Sulian.

Fortunately, Sulian is rich, and this trade deficit is just a drop in the bucket for the huge "CMEA" system.

Natasha changed into summer clothes on the plane in advance. Her blonde hair was tied into a high ponytail, revealing her slender neck, which made her feel cooler.

She got off the plane briskly and said to Du Fei half-jokingly, "Du, I heard that you spent tens of millions of dollars to buy a bunch of scrap metal in America?"

Du Fei knew she was talking about the two cruisers, and shrugged, "If you are willing to take out the 1123 aircraft carrier cruiser, I am willing to pay a high price."

Natasha rolled her eyes, "You are dreaming." She turned to look at Julie, who was also an old acquaintance. They hugged each other gently, and after a few greetings, the three of them got into the car.

Even with the air conditioner on, Natasha still complained about the heat in Kuching.

Until they arrived at the seaside manor, Julie left a separate yard for Natasha, and she would not use it when other guests visited.

This little detail made Natasha very satisfied.

After a simple bath, Julie had prepared lunch.

Natasha was also hungry, but she didn't have any beauty baggage, so she ate heartily.

However, while eating, he dropped a bombshell: "Du, you have to be careful. It was just confirmed three days ago that 'they' are going to deliver 30 MiG-25 aircraft to Viet Gou."

Du Fei paused with his chopsticks in his hand. This was not good news.

Since Lin Tiansheng suddenly took action in Zhenla and dealt a heavy blow to the Vietnamese army, both sides entered a stalemate and were very cautious.

No larger-scale battle broke out afterwards. Although Lin Tiansheng was young, he was not a novice on the battlefield. He had fought his way through Borneo over the years.

In addition to the caution inherited from his father, after the great victory, he instead contracted the front line and began to fight steadily.

This battle had to be a protracted war of attrition from the beginning, and there was no need for a quick victory.

The Vietnamese army was also a veteran who had fought on the battlefield for a long time. They suffered a great loss before because they were caught off guard. Now they have stabilized their position and their tactics are not messed up.

In addition, the Vietnamese army is a veteran who has fought hundreds of battles, has an advantage in manpower, and has taken a large part of the territory of Zhenla.

In addition, Li Zhu also has his thoughts on Hanoi.

In fact, a war in Zhenla might not be what Li Zhu wants to see.

Because the more intense the fighting here, the more excuses he has to ask Sulian for more things, such as the MiG-25 this time.

More importantly, as long as the fighting is going on here, he has an excuse not to fight with Huaguo in the north.

Everyone knows that with the size and strength of Yueguo, even with strong support, it is impossible for it to be a match for Huaguo.

No matter how they promote internally, they can deceive the people below but not themselves.

The current situation is like playing a game. As long as you don't pass the first level, you don't have to face the boss of the second level. Li Zhu certainly knows what is more beneficial to him.

In this situation, the battlefield of Zhenla fell into dullness.

There were no large-scale battles, and there were only a few hundred people, at most thousands of people fighting.

This situation is not what Sulian wants to see.

Mosko gave so much, not to let Li Zhugen Du Fei and Lin Tiansheng entangle, what they want is Li Zhu to stab hard from the south.

This is also why Mosko agreed to give 30 MiG-25s.

But this is not a secret. If it is really a secret, Natasha will not use it to improve Du Fei's favor.

Of course, this information is not given for free.

Another purpose of Natasha's visit this time is vegetables.

Natasha said: "Fruits and seafood are embellishments in life, and vegetables are indispensable to the people, especially in winter we need more vegetables."

Du Fei frowned. In theory, with the location and climate conditions of Borneo, large-scale vegetable cultivation is not a problem at all, but fresh vegetables must be transported from here to Eastern Europe, the core of the Sulian, by long-distance air transport, and the price will definitely not be too cheap.

But Natasha came this time hoping to get enough vegetables on the tables of more Sulian civilians.

And she also brought a plan, which is to build a vegetable canning factory and a dehydrated vegetable factory in Kuching to make vegetables that are not easy to preserve into canned and dehydrated vegetables with a longer shelf life.

Currently, there are canned vegetarian vegetables and dehydrated vegetables on the Sulian market, but the supply is insufficient and always in short supply.

Du Fei was overjoyed when he heard this, but he also kept a watchful eye in his heart. If it was just this, Natasha would not have thrown out the fuse of the thirty MiG-25s in advance.

Sure enough, Natasha continued, "The canning factory and the dehydrated vegetable factory are funded and managed by us, is that okay?"

Du Fei raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect Natasha to make this request.

Or, this should be the condition of Moscow.

But this is nothing to Du Fei. The factory is built on his site, purchasing raw materials, paying taxes according to the law, creating jobs, and other things are not important.

But this attitude cannot be expressed directly. He frowned and pondered for a moment, and asked, "How big is your factory going to be?"

Natasha came prepared and replied, "The initial plan is to process 300,000 tons of vegetables each year, which will require about 2,000 workers..."

Du Fei nodded, "Okay, but you can't build a branch in the factory."

Natasha frowned.

Du Fei explained, "This is mine, we have our own organization, you come here as the capital side, don't get your role wrong."

Natasha didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but after thinking carefully, it was not unreasonable.

As for why Sulian suddenly proposed to build another factory in Kuching, Du Fei could guess some of the other party's thoughts.

Although there is a confrontation between the two sides in Zhenla, it is not a direct conflict and has not affected trade.

On the contrary, with the tacit understanding of both sides, the trade volume has increased instead of decreased.

This is a tacit attitude that the current differences do not affect the cooperation between the two sides.

Instead, it is important for both sides to increase cooperation and anchor the existing relationship.

That's why Natasha came this time.

It's just that Du Fei equated her with capitalists, which made Natasha feel a little strange.

After the meeting with Natasha, only Du Fei and Zhu Li were left.

Zhu Li asked: "What kind of aircraft is the MiG-25? Is it powerful?"

Du Fei nodded with a serious expression. Strictly speaking, the MiG-25 is not a third-generation fighter, but its combat effectiveness is not comparable to that of ordinary second-generation fighters.

Once the Vietnamese MiG-25 appears on the battlefield, the Nanyang Weihe troops will completely lose air superiority.

Bombers, including gunboats, can no longer act recklessly.

Fortunately, Natasha notified in advance, otherwise the MiG-25 suddenly appeared on the battlefield, and Du Fei would have suffered a big loss.

Du Fei thought about this, his eyes rolling.

To deal with this situation, you must have a fighter.

And this may be an opportunity.

Natasha did not leave in a hurry when she came, but stayed to prepare for the two factories.

These matters were directly handled with Chen Fangshi, and Du Fei did not need to come forward.

Du Fei flew to Siam, and then went to Lin Tiansheng's headquarters in Zhenla.

This trip was to discuss the response to the MiG-25 with Lin Tiansheng, and also to appropriately declare his presence.

Although I believe that Lin Tiansheng will not make small moves at this time, some things are prepared for the future.

Du Fei explained to Lin Tiansheng, and Lin Tiansheng was surprised. He was an expert in this field and knew what level of aircraft the MiG-25 was. His brain turned quickly and thought about how to deal with it.

But in the current situation, he and Du Fei alone would definitely not be able to solve it, and they had to seek help from China.

Du Fei also had this idea, and Du Fei had other thoughts.

After a short stop in Zhenla, Du Fei flew north back to China to find Zhu's father.

"Dad, this is the situation now." Du Fei went to Beijing to report the situation to Zhu's father.

"MiG-25~" Zhu's father frowned and looked at Du Fei and asked: "What are your plans?"

Du Fei said: "Dad, this is what I think. We should show weakness when we should. Since Sulian provided the MiG-25, it might be our chance. Didn't America help us modify a batch of J-8s before... This time we will use real weapons to fight the MiG-25."

Dad Zhu raised his eyebrows: "Do you want... to make the J-8 lose?"

Du Fei nodded: "Not only must we lose, but we must lose miserably! America vowed to help us improve advanced fighters. We spent hundreds of millions of dollars on this project. If we lose miserably on the battlefield, we can take the opportunity to make demands."

Dad Zhu frowned and pondered the feasibility of Du Fei's proposal.

Du Fei continued: "These batches of aircraft are not in vain. Follow the normal procurement procedures."

Dad Zhu waved his hand: "It's not this problem. At present, the J-8 modification is the most advanced fighter in our hands. Once it is done as you said, our reputation will be completely ruined. If we can successfully get more advanced aircraft from America, it will be fine. If we can't..."

Du Fei understood what Dad Zhu was worried about.

But this is inevitable, and there is no good way, we can only choose the lesser of two evils.

This matter will eventually have to be decided by the higher authorities. Zhu's father has the qualifications to participate, but he does not have the right to make the final decision.

Fortunately, Du Fei did not have to wait for long, and there was a clue in less than half a month.

The J-8 modification can be given to Du Fei, but there is only the plane, no pilot.

This time, it is obvious that there is a life-and-death struggle. Although our soldiers are not afraid of sacrifice, they cannot die without meaning.

Du Fei also thinks so. As the saying goes, it is better to die than to die. As long as he gets the plane when he comes back this time, he has other ways.

There are a total of 35 J-8 modifications. Regardless of their performance, at least they are more numerous than 30 MiGs.

After these were settled, Du Fei rushed to Siam to find Gu Dan.

There are no pilots in China, and Du Fei does not have fighter pilots on hand. Moreover, even if there are, they are treasures and cannot be consumed here.

Gu Dan can only be the scapegoat. Not only that, Gu Dan also has to take part of the money for buying the planes, after all, these planes are handed over to him.

In the palace outside Mangu, Du Fei and Gu Dan sat opposite each other and drank tea.

After becoming the king, Gu Dan's temperament was much calmer than before, but he certainly couldn't hold it up in front of Du Fei. Moreover, after this period of time, he learned Chinese well, calling him Brother Du.

Du Fei didn't beat around the bush and directly told him the current situation and the purpose of buying the modified J-8. At the end, he said: "They only agreed to give you the planes. All the fighters this time are given to you. You have the foundation of the air force, so the air combat is left to you."

Although Gu Dan was a little hesitant, it was a good thing for him to get a relatively advanced fighter at less than one-third of the price.

Although there will definitely be losses in the future when facing the MiG-25 of the Vietnamese army, even if the losses are average, there will definitely be profits.
