Rebirth of Military Workers

Chapter 317

Xie Kai couldn’t say much about the matter of resource replacement. Anyway, this is the layout of the above, and there is no need to worry about it.

Even if he wants to oppose it, it will have no effect.

The base management committee gave him face, and patiently persuaded him to change to another unit, and he would never communicate these things with him as a young man.

“Iraq, the equipment procurement intention is clear?” Xie Kai changed the subject.

“The Iranians are more clear at present. Iraq depends on how we talk. They have said before that they have not received an answer. They hope to exchange oil for equipment…”

“The Iranians have blocked the Persian Gulf. Can their oil be transported?” Xie Kai asked worriedly.

The Iranians have acquired a batch of C801 anti-ship missiles from the country, enough to blockade the Persian Gulf.

“This is not a problem that we are considering, or we are going to ship by ourselves…” Wang Guilin said, “For oil tankers with our flag, both sides will give a little bit of face.”

“These are not problems. As long as we agree here, they can do it. In the Persian Gulf, it is impossible to have no freighters.” Zheng Yucheng felt that Xie Kai was worried too much.

In the entire Middle East, there are definitely not a few oil tankers passing through the Persian Gulf.

Iran can blockade only the area close to their territorial waters, which belongs to Saudi territory on the other side. Once Iran’s missiles fall within the territory of Saudi Arabia, the war will expand. Such consequences are unacceptable by Iran anyway. .

Iran’s oil is easier to transport.

Almost all aspects were considered. Although Xie Kai still had a lot of doubts, he did not raise them.

Whether it is the management committee or the higher-level competent department, they should all have a detailed response plan.

“Next, we can talk to the Iraqis.” Zheng Yucheng saw that Xie Kai no longer objected, and said with a smile.

The Iraqis are indeed waiting for their reply. The management committee summoned, and the eager Iraqis naturally did not hesitate at all.

“We need your side to train our technical personnel, the soldiers who use the equipment, and the commanders.” As soon as they came up, Ishad put forward their request seriously.

“Responsible for training. This is an ancillary service after we provide equipment.” Zheng Yucheng said with a smile, “I don’t know if you have a detailed plan.”

Talking about other things with the Iraqis now is of little use. What Zheng Yucheng needs is for the Iranian to place an order and sign a contract of intent. It is best to book a contract and make a down payment.

The other things that should be talked about are almost done.

“How are your discussions about payment?” Ibrahim frowned and asked.

This is the case for the Chinese, and we won’t talk about it if we don’t see the money.

“According to our discussion and the approval of the superiors, we agree in principle to your oil-for-equipment plan…” Wang Guilin said after considering it.

“Agree in principle?” Iraqis are a little puzzled about China’s usual cautious attitude.

They don’t understand Chinese word games at all.

Agree is to agree, and you have to get some agreement in principle.

“According to the content of the contract, part of the cash will be paid in proportion to the rest, and the rest will be paid in oil.” Wang Guilin knew something about the understanding of the Iraqis.

Agree in principle, and basically agree.

When the Iraqis heard it, they were overjoyed.

As long as you don’t cash out all the money, there is no problem.

For oil, just dig a few shovel and the sand will flow out, just use oil drums to fill it.

What’s more, it is difficult for Iraqis to sell oil.

“Of course, there are conditions. Regarding your reconstruction project after the war…” Zheng Yucheng simply didn’t go around in circles.

The reconstruction work of the Iraqis after the war was absolutely lucrative.

Taking the opportunity to sign a contract with them now is a very good opportunity for the Chinese engineering team to go global.

“This issue needs to be discussed with China.” Ibrahim frowned and looked at Zheng Yucheng.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

They did not expect that the Chinese would be as greedy as Western countries.

The sale of weapons and equipment also requires a binding contract.

“The oil your country uses for payment can completely provide an oil field destroyed by the Iranians, and we will repair it by ourselves, extract the oil, and then be supervised by the people of your country…” Xie Kai, who has not spoken, thought to himself. So, instead of letting Iraqis provide oil, it is better to let them provide oil fields.

In this way, even if Western countries impose sanctions on Iraq, it has nothing to do with this oil field.

The oil in those oil fields belongs to China, at least until Iraq has repaid its debts.

“Do you want oil fields?” Ibrahim frowned and looked at Xie Kai.

“It’s not that we want oil fields. I don’t know when the war between your country and Iran will end… Once you find that your oil fields near the border resume mining, the Iranians will definitely bomb them without hesitation…” Xie Kai smiled. , “Once the Chinese flag is hung, will Iranians easily bomb it?”

Xie Kai’s explanation made Zheng Yucheng and others look at him strangely.

“What about the construction investment of the oil field?”

“We paid part of it, your country paid part of it, and we still paid for the oil…” Xie Kai said calmly.

I was a little nervous inside.

The Iraqis are a little moved.

The oil fields close to the border were completely destroyed, not to mention oil extraction, even reconstruction, as long as the construction starts, the Iranians will desperately bomb.

For the Chinese, if they are bombed, it doesn’t matter to them.

It is also good for Iraq to be able to extract oil under the eyes of the Iranians in exchange for equipment.

“We will feed back your conditions back to China as soon as possible. According to the current situation, I don’t think it will be too difficult.” Ibrahim is also weighing.

The amount of domestic oil extraction has shrunk more than ten times from before the outbreak of the war to the present.

It was not that their oil fields were completely destroyed, but the Iranians were frantic and blocked the Persian Gulf, and oil tankers would be attacked if they were discovered.

“Now let’s talk about the equipment. We hope that according to your plan, we will first reorganize the organization of one division and three brigades, with tanks and armored vehicles as the main force, and an integrated artillery and army aviation support brigade… “Isad changed the subject.

The organization of one division and three brigades!

Neither Xie Kai nor Zheng Yucheng and others can figure out the Iraqi troops.

Under normal circumstances, the subordinate combat unit of the division is the regiment, and the brigade is independent.

The brigade’s subordinate combat units are dominated by battalions.

The Iraqis actually organize their troops according to the three-three system, and one division has three brigades under its control.

“If the price in your country is right and the conditions are not too harsh, it is difficult for us to accept. As long as your country’s equipment, we will all purchase from your country!” Isard’s words made Zheng Yucheng and others’ hearts beat wildly.

No matter how an Iraqi brigade is organized, this will be a huge arms and equipment transaction!

A teacher!

According to Iraq’s custom, one division of their special guards often consists of two tank brigades and one infantry brigade; or two infantry brigades, one tank brigade, and a large-fire division artillery for support. The battalion is then equipped with various combat battalions based on the battalion.

The staff is huge.

Why is it different here?

Xie Kai did not question, and waited patiently for the Iraqis to say how much equipment they needed.

“If the performance of your country’s 359 tanks can reach the theoretical data proposed by you, we will need 290; 3 122mm self-propelled howitzer battalions and 54 guns; supporting infantry fighting vehicles and about 600 armored personnel carriers; There are related anti-tank missiles, anti-aircraft missiles, etc…” Isad directly reported the number of equipment they needed.

The members of the management committee whose hearts were beating frantically, even their breathing became short at this time.

What the Iraqis want is equipment, and what they need is money.

Just these equipment, the value makes them excited.

Even Xie Kai was a little excited by the handwriting of the Iraqis. Money, these are all money!

A 359 tank, even if it only sells for 2.5 million US dollars, is worth more than 700 million US dollars!

A 122mm self-propelled artillery equipped with an image-stabilizing fire control system would have to sell for US$2 million, although the Iraqis had fewer, 54 artillery, which would cost hundreds of millions of dollars.

The price of armored vehicles is not high, only a few hundred thousand dollars per one, even if it is 400 thousand dollars, 600 vehicles, how much does it cost? More than 200 million US dollars!

Anti-aircraft missiles, the other party estimates that they will not buy anymore.

Saddam was too crazy.

For such crazy customers, Xie Kai likes it.

Zheng Yucheng and others like it too.

A division is equipped with more than one billion dollars, what a crazy thing.

“We still have ground attack missiles with a range of 200 kilometers. Does your division have some?” Xie Kai is not satisfied with the hot iron. “The rifles used by your country’s troops, if an agreement is reached, we can give them away for nothing! Each rifle is equipped with a base number of bullets!”

Except for heavy equipment, the weapons and equipment used by these troops are not valuable at all.

The 81 automatic rifle costs only two to three hundred yuan a piece, and even if an Iraqi division has twenty thousand people, it is only six million dollars.

Xie Kai suddenly became generous.

Business people like to give customers a bit of sweetness. In this way, there will be follow-up opportunities for cooperation.

“We can all send a base number of shells!” Zheng Yucheng shot, much more generous than Xie Kai.

More than a billion dollars!

Once won, how much profit is there?

For the entire base, at least for many years, there is no need to consider funding issues.

“This is our list of requirements. You can consider what you cannot provide. We also hope that you will send someone to communicate with other units. We only trade with you… We need all weapons and ammunition. At least ten base numbers!” Ishad gestured, and Harry Mosau issued a list of weapon requirements written in Chinese and Arabic.
