America's Big Hero

Although it was just a business negotiation without a word, the Iraqi side was still very solemn.

A reception was held in the evening, and President Saddam did not come, which made Sean a little regretful. However, several of Saddam’s sons arrived. Uday, a 22-year-old young man, is tall and thin, and looks pretty good A handsome, 20-year-old Qusay, chubby and mostly old-fashioned, with a mustache like Ali's, or more precisely, Saddam's.

The moment he saw Cousy, Sean felt that this little guy was a cunt.

In comparison, Uday, who holds his forehead high and walks windily, looks like he has no brains.

However, both of them are dudes who eat, drink, whore, gamble and smoke a lot. In this regard, they are different from Xiao En...

Ah bah, it's all a joke.

Sean never likes this one!

The nature is completely different.

Saddam's family was still very enthusiastic, and the couple who rested at night sent 10 young girls.

They are said to be pure virgins.

Sean refused verbally, but Uday said that this is the enthusiasm of Iraq, and it is to let Sean experience the Arab culture. This is cultural exchange and art!

No way, Sean could only reluctantly agree.

However, before the break, Sean still specially instructed Layton Stevens.

The old man is 60, Sean doesn't want to come to Iraq, the old man was sent away directly...

He was ready to take this stimulation that he shouldn't have to bear at his age instead of old man Layton.

But the old man Layton didn't appreciate it, and said very forcefully that he was in good health, although he was quite old and his strength was weak, he regretted the momentum of Yueyang City.

Sean could only shake his head and walk away cursing.

this night...

In the bright moonlight in front of the bed, there are three people facing each other.

……

Early the next morning, Sean was in good health and woke up as if nothing had happened. The other two were a little sluggish, but the breakfast was going to be cold, and old man Layton didn't come down.

In the end, Layton came down by leaning on the wall.

Sean has a bad feeling...

Erbajia's body looks like a crisp, and she beheads the old man with a sword at her waist.

The people in Iraq are so insidious, they abolished one of my generals!

It's not a formal discussion, everyone still communicated with each other, and held another banquet at noon, but this time there were fewer people.

Ali Hassan Majid communicated with Sean and the others while eating.

The background of the Iran-Iraq War is very complicated. It has been fighting for five full years. In the past five years, the blood of Yilang and Iraq is almost drained, but the grievances between the two sides are too deep, and now they don't want to fight anymore.

Among the local wars after World War II, the Iran-Iraq War was relatively tragic, and the weapons and equipment were very advanced.

Back then, the United States supported the former government of Ilang to fight against the Soviet Union. It really put in effort, with many advanced weapons and equipment including fighter jets.

包括79架F－14A、32架F－4D、177架F－4E和28架F－5F，鼎盛时期的依朗皇家空军，一度拥有450架先进战机和约5000名训练有素的飞行员。

Iraq also has a large number of MiG-21, MiG-23, Su-22, H-6 and so on.

In terms of air power, the two countries are already very powerful.

Of course, we can also see something interesting from it. Yilang, which was supported by the Soviet Union, used American aircraft, and Iraq, which was supported by the United States, used Soviet aircraft...

Oh, yes, there is also the H-6, yes, that is the rabbit’s H-6...

In the last battle, the rabbit won the numbness.

"As long as it does not violate the laws of the United States, it is a purely commercial activity. Our umbrella company is a purely commercial company and does not represent any political position." Xiao En said with a smile: "Business has nothing to do with politics."

Ali wouldn't believe that bullshit business has nothing to do with politics, but as long as the umbrella company can complete the task, it doesn't matter.

"We hope that you can launch a surprise attack on the military base here at a specific time to completely destroy this base. If you can't, you must persist for more than an hour to buy time for us." Ali took out a map and pointed A military stronghold on the border of Ilan on the Persian Gulf.

What the other party said was not true, and Xiao En didn't ask carefully before reaching an agreement, "We need to know the specific strength of this military base in Yilang, what functions it has, and what equipment it has."

"This is a missile launch base. We don't know the specific strength and equipment." Ali spread his hands.

Sean didn't answer directly, but leaned his head closer to Dennis Abbott and asked in a low voice, "I remember that Iraq had Scud missiles, why didn't they use missiles to directly level this shit base."

"There are Scuds, there are quite a few. The Soviet Union sold them, but the problem is that the Scuds don't have that ability." Dennis Abbott explained in a low voice, and Sean finally understood why ground troops were needed to advance.

The Scud is a ground-to-ground tactical ballistic missile, a copy of the German V-2 missile, but this shit is inertial-guided, with a maximum range of only 300 kilometers, and its accuracy is impressive.

The prediction accuracy is 300, but it is actually more exaggerated than this. After all, there will be errors in the prediction target...

And they are all just ordinary warheads, which can hold 860 kilograms of explosives and have a killing radius of about 150 meters.

That is to say, it is very likely that once a missile passes by, nothing will happen to the target.

And even if it hits the target, due to the problem of the amount of charge, it can only have a good killing effect on ground targets, but it is really powerless for underground construction.

"Can you fight?" Sean was more concerned about this.

"Yes, at least 100 people are needed, tanks and armored vehicles must be coordinated, and there must be enough air support. Two Black Hawks are definitely not enough." Dennis Abt frowned and said: "In addition, if this military base is very important to Ilang If people are important, the other party will send support soon.”

"They have planes, F-14s, and once air support arrives, our Black Hawks are the targets."

"Our advantage is that we have a warship that is more advanced in the world. My personal suggestion is to rely on warships to fight and give full play to our strengths."

"Of course, the Marine Division is not afraid of war, it's just...the loss will be huge."

"Of course, we are here to make money, not to kill the Iraqis." Sean nodded in agreement.

With a light cough, Sean looked at Ali, with a smile on his lips, and his tone changed from his previous seriousness to a frivolous one, "Okay, Minister Ali, let's not go around in circles, it's not interesting."

"As for me, I don't like to be as rigid as the older generation. I prefer to be more direct."

"I don't have any political stance, no matter what kind of bullshit grievances, politics, religion, I'm here to make money!"

"Whoever gives the money, I will do it for him!"

"As for me, let me talk about my advantages. If there are those with a lot of money and no effort, introduce them to me. Don't waste everyone's time on such thankless things."

The corner of Ali Hassan Majid's mouth twitched. He had a lot of contact with the Soviets and Americans, and he had countless negotiations, but this was the first time he had seen this.

How much money is effortless, how dare you think about it!

"Currently, I have a Keeling-class guided missile destroyer under my umbrella. You must be familiar with the Keeling-class. There are three ships in Yilang on the opposite side. I won't introduce more about the ones I sold to them before."

"What, you have a Keeling-class destroyer?!" Ali suddenly stood up from his seat and looked at Sean in horror, "This is impossible!"

"But it's a fact. The warship is currently being refitted at the Norfolk Naval Shipyard in Virginia, and it's about to go into the water." Sean shrugged, spread his hands, and pouted three times.

"Crazy, this is simply, unbelievable, my God." Ali was shocked and some of the quotations became coherent.

If they want to hire an umbrella company, they will naturally understand the military power of the umbrella.

Especially after the video of the Cartagena joint exercise was released.

The Iraqi side knows that Sean's umbrella has a large number of retired American soldiers, including 2 Black Hawk helicopter gunships, 2 tanks, and multiple armored transport vehicles.

Whether it is on helicopters, tanks or armored vehicles, these equipment are better than what Iraq currently has.

The Black Hawk gunship is currently only equipped with the United States, and has not yet released foreign sales.

Not to mention Apache.

This force is very powerful, and it can play a very strong role on the frontal battlefield. They are also Americans, and the boss's surname is Rockefeller, so Iraq has the intention of hiring them to try.

It doesn't matter even if you don't succeed, it's purely with the mentality of hitting two shots whether you have a date or not.

It's just that there has never been any intelligence showing that the umbrella company has warships!

Although the Keeling class can only be used as a target ship to blow up in the United States, it is still the overlord class that can be sold all over the world.

It is precisely because Ilang has three Kielin-class destroyers sold to them by the Americans during the Pahlavi Dynasty that Ilang can control the Persian Gulf and ensure the smooth flow of their oil output lines.

As for Iraq, because the coastline is only 58 kilometers narrow, the navy or something...

If we don't talk about the navy, we are still friends.

After the start of the Iran-Iraq War, a Wolf-class frigate was ordered from Italy last year, and one was just delivered last year.

Since there was no naval power before, the warships are not yet proficient in operating...

The navy is a high-tech arm, and training is really difficult. It takes several years to train a qualified navy.

In this regard, Sean took advantage of the US military.

The displacement is basically the same as that of the Keeling class. The anti-ship missile is equipped with the Automate anti-ship missile. The launch weight is 770 kg, the warhead is 210 kg, and the range is 60 kilometers.

It's about the same as the French flying fish, and far worse than the American harpoon Sean got.

You can tell from the name, flying fish, harpoon, it looks like it is specially made for it.

In terms of air defense, Italy's wolf-class frigates use the American-made 'Sea Sparrow' air defense missile system.

Sean's Killing was equipped with...no.

Of course, Sean won't say this, he doesn't have it now, he'll pretend it when he goes back.

In other words, at present, Sean's sea power alone is as powerful as the entire Iraq...

This is absolutely not expected by Ali.

This was the first time he had heard of the privately owned naval guided missile destroyer, which made Ali feel a little overwhelmed.

After all, this thing is a big money burner, and ordinary people, well, even ordinary billionaires can't afford it.

Take the Harpoon anti-ship missile, which costs 97 US dollars per shot.

Generally, small countries can’t afford it. Of course, such as Wanwan, when the unit price was at its peak, it cost 2300 million…

I don't even know how the money... how the invoice was issued.

How much rebate...

"I want to emphasize one point. Yilang's Keeling-class destroyers are different from mine. After all, they are the export version and the full version. They are FRAM Type [-] modified ships, and mine are Type [-] modified ships. In terms of firepower, they completely beat them, including Your wolf-class frigate, I'm afraid you will sink if you don't have a chance to meet each other." Sean said with an apologetic expression.

He knows the specific combat power, but at this time, he must blow it out.

"I'm armed with a Harpoon missile launch system."

"Harpoon, I think you must be familiar with it. Just 4 years ago, it just sank the British Sheffield."

"You have to understand that we have such a big guy at sea, and all operations will be done around the Killing class."

"So, let's talk about something serious."

"Of course." Ali seemed very excited, but he didn't agree directly. He wanted to go back and discuss with Saddam and the others.

The rest of the banquet was just chatting. Until the next day, Ali came to the door again. This time, he did not talk about anything specific, but invited important people to visit the presidential palace.

Sean finally met the legendary "Middle East Lion" Saddam Hussein.

Slightly fat, with a square face, and a mustache. As for the cruelty and murder in the legends of later generations, Sean has not discovered it for the time being.

What he likes to massacre, like to watch the execution scene, torture and so on, until he sees it with his own eyes, Sean will not believe the things reported by the media.

Meeting, introducing, shaking hands, exchanging greetings, taking pictures, a set of procedures followed, and then the two parties began to talk about business.

By the way, Sean got another autographed photo of the president.

After the official negotiation started, what surprised Sean was that the Iraqi side actually wanted to let the umbrella side help with the escort.

"Escort!?" Sean looked at Saddam in surprise.

"Yes, escort!" Saddam affirmed: "From the rabbit side, escort a cargo ship to ensure that they reach the Basra Naval Base safely."

Sean and Leighton Stevens looked at each other in time, isn't this a dart board?

"I need to know a few things. First, what exactly is being transported?" Sean looked at Saddam.

"Weapons, tanks, armored vehicles, missiles, steel, and spare parts for many weapons." Saddam did not hide it.

Weapons, tanks?

Sean was taken aback for a moment, and he glanced at Leighton Stevens in confusion.

Leighton Stevens turned his head and whispered in Sean's ear: "Over the past year or so, Iraq has purchased a large amount of weapons in that big country in the East, including fighter jets, artillery, tanks, armored vehicles, and missiles. Long and Iraq are buying from rabbits."

"Ah? Is Rabbit's ammunition so useful?" Sean looked confused. If his memory is correct, Rabbit's weapons in the 80s were probably improved after World War II, compared to the Soviet Union. It's a lot worse. If it's specific to the Air Force and the Navy, it's also much behind the other two hooligans.

"It's cheap!" Layton Stevens spread his hands helplessly, "In addition, a large amount of Iraqi military equipment is Soviet-style, and Rabbit's products can be seamlessly linked."
