Rebirth of Military Workers

Chapter 993

“That doesn’t mean you have to get two Yun-10s. That’s $60 million, although the price is cheap…” Kovarubi knew that it was not so easy to get the five billion U.S. dollars in Mobutu’s hands.

Weapons and equipment are not advanced, and combat effectiveness is not strong, that is absolutely impossible.

Does a civil aviation airliner like Yun-10 have a penny for combat effectiveness?

“That’s not it. It’s just that I sent the mercenary group to the mercenary group. It belongs to the mercenary group. It is usually used as a special plane for you and President Mwini…” Xie Kai can’t explain, I am for the development prospects of Yun-10. , In order to make everyone have confidence in Yun-10, it was done like this.

He paid for the money himself, and the airplane had to be bought with money.

“In fact, this is not necessary.” Kovarubi was a little embarrassed, “Thank you, didn’t China just develop Super-7A? How could it sell Super-7B outside?”

“The dual-engine, the larger the combat radius, the larger the ammunition capacity, and the better performance.” Xie Kai said calmly.

Super-7B is not a domestic self-use model.

Moreover, after signing the order, it will not be possible to deliver it in the short term. It is just that funds will be injected into the Super-7B project through the Tanzanian Ministry of National Defense. Even if it is not exported, there will be no need to repay the money.

“The entire transaction does not require your country to bear any cost of any penny. At the same time, it does not need to be borne by the mercenary group. I will provide it first, and then slowly repay it when the mercenary group has money…” Xie Kai simply said. To clarify.

He has made so much money outside and must be transferred to the 404 project through other channels.

The effect of this money is far greater than the amount on the surface.

Kovarubi looked astonished. How stupid is Xie Kai’s behavior?

Others can’t wait to put all the country’s money into their pockets. Xie Kai poured the money in his pocket to the country silently, without even a certificate of consolation.

Did a good deed without leaving a name, he thought he was a reincarnation?

“Thank you, although I don’t understand your behavior, I still admire your loyalty and dedication to the country.” Kovarubi sighed, “But now there is a problem. When we agreed, the servant The Corps is not equipped with heavy weapons.”

The crab mercenary group is equipped with heavy equipment, so as long as they are not allowed to pay, it is naturally not a problem.

Anyway, it will not affect their interests. The more advanced weapons and equipment, this will bring greater benefits.

However, Xie Kai’s doing this has made the Tanzanian government a little passive.

It was agreed before that the land leased by Tanzania would be used as a base for the river crab mercenary group, and the mercenary group must not have heavy equipment such as tanks and fighters.

Xie Kai even thought of using various heavy weapon systems on the back of the pickup truck to serve as fire support for the mercenary regiment in ground warfare.

In the past two years, with the use of second-hand warplanes and second-hand tanks and armored vehicles purchased by Kabila from China, Xie Kai even forgot this stubbornness. I said it at this moment before remembering it.

“General, what do you mean with President Mwini?” Xie Kai frowned.

I didn’t expect this before.

He actually understands the concerns of the Tanzanian government.

A powerful mercenary team with advanced and powerful war machines makes it very easy to overthrow the government.

“This is the concern of the entire government. If the number is small, it is not a problem; or if we have more advanced weapons and equipment, there is no problem.” Kovarubi considered his remarks.

They are ready to use this opportunity to allow China to invest a lot of money to help Tanzania develop.

With the mining of nickel mines in Burundi, a primary smelter built in Tanzania will also be put into operation.

The surrounding power plants have also been built.

In this way, it will promote the development of many surrounding industries. Tanzania’s economic development is almost all dependent on these investments.

There were only some light industrial factories built with China’s aid, but they were not scaled up at all.

It is absolutely impossible to ask Xie Kai directly.

“Does your country also have plans to purchase these weapons and equipment?” Xie Kai frowned.

Tanzania is too poor.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

They used to rely on China’s free economic aid, but now China does not have free economic aid. They start to apply for interest-free loans and low-interest loans, or seek economic assistance from the World Bank.

The price of 359 tanks is too high, and Tanzania’s defense budget cannot support it at all.

Income can’t support it either.

“We do have such an idea, but your country has to advance in advance. We use mines as mortgage… the gold mines around Lake Victoria, and some diamond mines…” Kovarubi said.

“We are not very interested in diamond mines.”

The quality of diamonds in Tanzania is not very good.

“What about diamonds used in industry?” Kovarubi looked sly.

Xie Kai was stunned.

With the development of domestic industry, there is a great demand for diamonds, especially some difficult-to-process materials, which require diamonds as processing tools and raw materials, which makes the domestic diamond output not very sufficient.

The technology of turning graphite into synthetic diamond under high temperature and high pressure environment is available in China, and the production cost is too high to be invested on a large scale.

In other words, it is because the production process is not mature.

More is the use of natural diamonds.

“We have millions of tons of diamond reserves, but we don’t have the ability to mine or process them. We can provide mining workers and mines, and you can provide production equipment and technology to directly build factories in our country. Then shipped back to China…” Kovarubi painted a very promising future for Xie Kai.

Xie Kai was silent.

He really couldn’t make a decision on this matter, and he had to ask Wang Guilin and the others.

We have to contact domestic companies with processing capabilities whether they are willing to invest in Tanzania.

As for the mindset of the Tanzanian government, Xie Kai knows better than anyone else.

The Tanzanian government needs funds for development, and China’s development needs resources. This is a good thing for both parties.

“Cooperative development?” Xie Kai asked.

“Yes, our profit was used to repay your equipment…” Kovarubi nodded and said.

When Xie Kai heard this, he rolled his eyes.

“Do you think that investment does not require interest? To see the benefits, even if you directly transport the ore back from your country, it will take a long time to see the benefits after the investment. General, your abacus is really good…” Xie Kai Face despised, “Unless you bear the interest on the equipment you owe, I can personally lend you part of it.”

There are more than one billion dollars in his hand, and it’s not appropriate to just put it like this.

The money was originally prepared for the Soviet Union. If the investment is returned to the country and then transferred out, it will definitely be discovered, and there will be no explanation at that time.

Instead of this, it is better to invest in the domestic military equipment field.

The Iran-Iraq War is coming to an end, and the delivery of tanks that Silly Damu ordered from China is about to end. So far, the army has not determined how much to purchase. Although it has requested that 404 exports be transferred to domestic sales, some technical upgrades are currently in progress. Haven’t taken it out yet.

Once the huge production line loses the order, this will soon make the domestic armored vehicle manufacturing system face the original dilemma again.

More than one billion U.S. dollars has been invested in it, and it can be produced slowly, waiting for the country’s economy to improve.

“Loan to Tanzania? What if I can’t get it back?” Wang Guilin felt that Xie Kai’s idea was too weird.

Zheng Yucheng also shook his head straight, “No, once their government falls, what if the new government doesn’t recognize the debt?”

404 now holds a large sum of funds in its hands and invests it in the country. The profit is very high, at least 15% of the profit can be made.

If the loan is given to Tanzania, this will have a very serious impact.

Tanzania’s economy is too poor, and the industry hardly has much output value.

In heavy industry, even if the development of mining and smelting industries will have a positive impact on domestic equipment exports, they need to advance all the funds.

The Tanzanian government has no money.

“I think this matter can still be considered. The 359 tank is about to face the dilemma of no orders. For us, it will not have much impact, but what about 541? 617 still has some orders from the military every year.” Xie Kai sighed.

541 had not been fully constructed and started to be converted.

The original fate was like that. In the end, there was no production capacity for armored vehicles at all, and all the production lines were scrapped.

Now the cooperation between 404 and 541 is the closest. Almost 541 has become the 404’s foundry. 359 tanks, half of which are produced and assembled by 541.

Even most parts of the excavator at the base are produced by 541’s subsidiary factory. The plant invested by Jiayuguan is only an assembly plant, and most of the parts are not produced.

Otherwise, the investment is too big.

Without the production of tanks and armored vehicles, this factory would be completely finished.

In the end, it was completely reduced to a civilian product processing industry.

“You have to consider our financial security. It seems that there will be no pressure for lack of funds. Can you do it later? There are still no orders for the shipment of -10; the demand for funds for super-7B is greater; and our warships Project…” Wang Guilin said to Xie Kai solemnly.

The base is currently supported by funds from selling equipment.

The country’s economic development is good, but the demand for funds for the entire country’s infrastructure has become greater. After the completion of the disarmament of one million, the military expenditure has not increased, but has decreased. Even for each soldier, the military expenditure has increased a little.

In such a huge country, there is not a third-generation tank or a third-generation fighter on the heavy equipment of the national defense force.

To keep up with the pace of the world and meet the country’s national defense needs, at least one trillion U.S. dollars…

This is a piece of fat.

Once the 404 loses its production capacity, they will not expect to increase the fat of equipment in the future for national defense construction.

“We can ignore everything else, but 541 cannot lose its ability to produce tanks and armored vehicles.”

“What’s the situation with which Mi-25 gunship in Chad?” Zheng Yucheng didn’t answer Xie Kai’s words, but changed the subject.
