Chapter 1449 The Inevitable War

Faced with the conditions given by Dufei, Bush was inevitably tempted.

There was no way, Dufei promised too much.

Although America only expressed serious concern about the crisis in Afhan and called on Moscow to exercise restraint, resolve differences and control disputes through peaceful negotiations.

But in fact, after several rounds of closed-door meetings, the two parties in America have reached a certain consensus.

This is not surprising. No matter whether it is a donkey or an elephant, no one will go against money.

After the end of the Vietnam War, they once again had a legal reason to devour national wealth.

This time, facing the dispatch of troops by the S.U.C., America's first batch of special appropriations reached 2 billion US dollars.

This money will not go directly to the parliament, but will be passed directly from the Budget Committee in the name of special appropriations.

Faced with such a big piece of cake, no one can eat alone, and the two parties must cooperate to reap the benefits.

As Dufei said, at most one-third of the 2 billion can be used to help Afhan fight against the S.U.C., and the rest will be eaten by related interest groups.

Dufei doesn't even have to think about this benefit, but the remaining 600 million US dollars may not be without opportunities.

If you want to get a share of the Afhan, you must start with America.

Afhan itself has no money, and America and its allies give them money and equipment so that they can persist in resistance.

If you want to get a bite of profit here, you must join in and become one of the links.

The only advantage Du Fei can rely on is the relatively cheap production capacity.

The same rocket launcher, if purchased from Du Fei, leaving enough profit, is still two-thirds cheaper than in America.

Du Fei made it very clear to Jiao Zhi Bu Shi that he only wants this one-third, and the remaining two-thirds can be divided freely.

In other words, 2 billion US dollars, after layers of subcontracting, became 200 million US dollars at Du Fei.

And at Du Fei, there must be at least one times the profit, that is, the final cost of production is only 100 million US dollars.

At this time, Du Fei suddenly realized that in the world before he crossed over, America also launched an Afhan war in the 21st century, and the cost of the 20 years before and after was announced to the public as high as 2 trillion US dollars.

Many people find it incredible. With America's strength, advanced military technology, and resolute determination, why can't it take down a mere Afhan after spending two trillion dollars?

Now it seems that there is nothing strange. According to Du Fei's current ratio, it would be good if one hundred million of the two trillion dollars can be used for practical purposes.

The two trillion dollars in the 21st century may not reach less than one hundred billion dollars in the end, and it will only be several billion dollars per year.

In addition, another benefit of Du Fei's active participation this time is that he can get some production technology of America's equipment.

Although these equipments will not have much high-tech, most of them are relatively basic and crude weapons, but they can learn a lot of good experience from his America's completion system.

Before, whether it was the fire equipment company led by Du Fei or the inherent military industry system of Huaguo, they were all the same as Sulian.

It is impossible to say which side is better or worse, but we can only say that each has its own strengths.

Before Du Fei traveled through time, Huaguo finally completed the learning of the strengths of both parties decades later.

Among them, what Du Fei particularly values ​​is the famous Stinger missile. In the early stage, America is unlikely to use it, but as the Afhan War progresses, it will be used sooner or later to deal with the Sulian.

There are also rocket launchers specifically designed to deal with t-62 and t-64 tanks.

In the end, Jiao Zhibushi left Kuching in an anxious mood.

Although he and Du Fei reached a preliminary agreement, he still had a lot of work to do in order to get the money in the future, such as opening up various relationships, coordinating the interests of all parties, and appeasing the senior management of related factories.

On the contrary, Du Fei's side is relatively simple. He only needs to wait for America to coordinate well, and then he can supply weapons to Afhan with money.

…

At the same time, far away in Bagoda.

Sadamu secretly met with the special envoy from America again.

The goals of both parties are very clear and tend to be consistent.

The only difference is that the price has not been negotiated.

According to America's intention, she promised to help Sadamu take the position, and Sadamu would help them contain Persia.

But Sadam thought that even without America, his rise to power would be a natural outcome, and this was not a bargaining chip at all. If he wanted to go to war with Persia, America needed to show more "sincerity".

"Okay~ Mr. Hussein, you win." The middle-aged white man spread his hands helplessly. In order to obtain Sadam's sword that stabbed Persia in the back, he had to agree to the other party's request: "We can default to Babylon's rights to the Kovet region..."

Hearing this, Sadam smiled.

He has never been a law-abiding person. Compared with becoming the great commander of Babylon, he has greater ambitions and pursuits.

Located in the south of Babylon, at the mouth of the Euphrates and Tigris rivers, Kovet was once a part of Babylon. In Sadam's mind, it must return to Babylon.

However, a promise is just a promise. To turn a promise into reality, strength and victory are still needed.

Obviously, the young Sadam in front of him lacked a deep understanding of this sentence.

He thought that getting America's promise was a sure thing.

After seeing off the American envoy, Sadamu looked at the car going away, and the smile on his face suddenly disappeared.

Next to him was his cousin Majid.

At this time, Majid was still very young, just thirty-six years old. He did not hold an important position, but he was a very trusted person around Sa Damu.

"Ali, how credible do you think America's words are?" Sa Damu stood there with his hands in his trouser pockets and whispered to Majid next to him.

"Brother, based on my understanding of America, their words cannot be trusted at all." Majid stood a position behind Sa Damu. Although they are cousins, they have eight points of imagination. If we just talk about looks, he He is more like Sa Damu than his biological brother.

Sa Damu said "hmm" and looked deeply at the direction the car was driving away: "But we have no choice. Babylon wants to become a world-class powerful fruit family again. There is absolutely no hope in continuing to be like this. It must show greater determination. And courage. And...this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If it hadn't happened in Persia, the Americans wouldn't have come to us.

Speaking of this, Sa Damu suddenly remembered something and pursed his lips slightly: "Maybe the Huaguo people are better, but unfortunately their power is too weak to give us enough help."

In comparison, Du Fei's sincerity and attitude in Libya, as well as subsequent cooperation with Najia, Syria, and Babylon, gave Sa Damu a good impression of Du Fei.

Majid remained silent, knowing that Sa Damu's determination would not change.

Sa Damu was silent for more than ten seconds, clenched his fists with both hands, and said in a deep voice: "In short, if we want to get back the glory of Babylon, we must defeat the Persians first." After saying that, he withdrew his gaze from the distance and looked at Majid beside him. : "My brother, you go to Nanyang tomorrow. Du Fei is there now. We need more powerful weapons."

On the other side, the American envoy who had just left was sitting in the back seat of the car, sinking like water.

An hour ago, he had just received the news before coming to see Sa Damu that the new ruler of Persia completely ignored America's olive branch.

Although radical changes occurred in Persia, the Barrie dynasty, which had previously cooperated closely with America, was overthrown.

But America did not think that there was no possibility of continued cooperation in the new Persia. They underestimated the perseverance and persistence of the Persians.

It wasn't until he suffered a complete failure that he had no choice but to agree to Sa Damu's conditions.

As long as Babylon can contain Persia and prevent the entire Persian Gulf from completely collapsing, a price must be paid.

…

The next afternoon, a Babylon Air K-8 passenger plane landed at Kuching Airport.

Since Du Fei's Beijing Aircraft Factory improved the K-8 passenger aircraft on the basis of the Yun-8, more than 300 aircraft have been sold to the outside world.

Customers include North Korea, Siam, Danguo, Malay, Lijiapo, Libya, Egypt, Syria, Babylon, Persia... making Huaguo the third company after America and Sulian to achieve large-scale A company that produces and exports passenger aircraft.

The K-8 passenger plane landed, and as Sa Damu's special representative, Du Fei personally went to the airport to greet him.

At present, the war between Persia and Babylon is becoming increasingly clear.

At this time, Majid suddenly came over, and the purpose was self-evident.

For such a big customer, Du Feixulai spared no expense in hospitality and respect.

"Mr. Du, I would like to say hello to you on behalf of my brother." When Majid saw Du Fei, he immediately jogged down the gangway and shook hands with Du Fei tightly.

Du Fei chuckled and said, "Say hello to your brother for me, we are best friends."

After shaking hands, Du Fei took Majid and walked outside the airport.

From here you can just see rows of transport planes assembling goods destined for Eastern Europe and the Middle East.

At the same time, there were more than a dozen gunships parked not far away, as well as a larger number of H-7 bombers.

What made Majid's eyes brighter was that among these large planes, there were also several smaller, but very recognizable, fighter jets hidden among them.

Majid recognized it at a glance. It was the F-1 fighter jet that was very popular some time ago.

At that time, a tactical raid was used to shoot down a MiG-25, making the F-1 fighter jet shine in front of the world.

The fighters currently in Babylon's hands are all first- and second-generation aircraft.

In the world before Dufy's time travel, it was not until 1981 that Babylon obtained the Mirage fighter jet from France and achieved the record of shooting down a Persian F-14.

At this time, seeing Du Fei's F-1 fighter jet, which was derived from the F-18, of course I felt greedy.

Unfortunately, Majid knew in his heart that it was impossible for them to obtain such a fighter jet based on the actual situation.

Even so, this trip made Majid truly appreciate the power of Kuching.

Although he had heard of Kuching in Babylon before and had seen a large number of Y-8 transport aircraft taking routes in the Middle East and North Africa, he still could not understand it intuitively.

Until this time, I saw that the huge apron of the expanded Kuching Airport was full of all kinds of aircraft parked.

More importantly, these aircraft are produced by Huaguo itself.

Although Kuching belongs to Indy in name, anyone who knows something about the relationship between flowers and fruits and Nanyang will know what is going on.

After leaving the airport, Du Fei warmly hosted a banquet in honor of Majid.

During the dinner, Majid found an opportunity to mention the purpose of his visit, hoping to purchase some weapons and equipment through Du Fei.

Du Fei put down his drink with a smile. He had already guessed the other party's purpose, so he calmly said: "Of course, I am very happy to share any good things with my friends. I wonder what you want? What is the approximate total budget?"

Majid had already prepared: "Mainly advanced tanks, armored vehicles, and individual equipment..."

To go to war with Persia, Babylon's current army of more than 200,000 is definitely not enough. It must expand its army on a large scale, and the equipment required is very large.

In the world before the crossing, the number of Babylonian troops eventually soared from 240,000 to 1.2 million.

And this will be a huge market with a total amount of hundreds of billions of dollars.

Du Fei remembered that in the description of this war, Babylon had 37 billion US dollars in foreign exchange reserves before the war, and after the war, it became a debt of 45 billion US dollars.

However, the war has not started yet, and neither Babylon nor Persia has reached the level of madness in the later period.

Sure enough, when Majid said the total budget this time, it was almost the same as Du Fei expected, only 10 billion US dollars.

Du Fei was not disappointed. This 10 billion US dollars was real money, unlike the previous cooperation with Jiao Zhi Bushi, which eventually fell into Du Fei's hands, which was only 200 million US dollars at most.

At the current international market price and the imminent war, at least two-thirds of this 10 billion US dollars is profit.

Excluding the part that was handed over to the state, the fire equipment company could still make at least $500 million in net profit.

Moreover, this was just the beginning. Before the war, Sadamu was too optimistic and underestimated Persia's strength and will.

He believed that Persia, which had just experienced an accident, was definitely not the opponent of the Babylonian lion who was waiting for the opportunity. The war would end in a short time and end with his victory.

However, Persia proved with practical actions that one should never underestimate the tenacity of an ancient great power.

Du Fei had enough patience. After Sadamu suffered a loss, he would obediently hand over the foreign exchange in his hands.

In addition, Majid also made a request, which was the short-range tactical missile similar to the "Scud" that Du Fei showed to Sadamu last time.

Du Fei had no objection to this request. The only thing to discuss was the price.

As for the quantity, it depends on how much money Sadamu can come up with.

After the meal, Majid was quite satisfied.

Compared with the transactions with America and Sulian, Du Fei's price was affordable, and there were no additional conditions. It was a very simple transaction.

The only drawback is that they need to transport the tanks back by themselves.

Fortunately, the war has not yet broken out. If Du Fei delivers quickly enough, he should be able to transport the goods back.

Of course, they can also pay extra for the freight. If they are willing to pay, Du Fei even agreed to dispatch the Y-9 to directly airlift the tanks they ordered to Bagoda.

It's just that this fee... makes Majid not very willing to use this VIP-level long-distance air transport service.
