Siheyuan: I eat melons while doing scientific research

Chapter 1108 Happy Minibus
For minibuses, missile boats are useful but cannot play a decisive role. They can alleviate difficulties but cannot achieve a big victory.

After all, compared to Miniba, even if Sindhu was cut in half, it still seemed a little too big. Fortunately, the navy of Sindhu (New) bordering Miniba is almost blank, and has been completely taken over by Sindhu (Ban) in the south. As long as Miniba does not go crazy and provoke the south, these missile boats can really play a significant role in a short period of time.

The comrades couldn't help but laugh when they thought that Northern Sindhu had to be bullied by these little guys.

Although Gao Zhendong's last sentence was very offensive, it touched the hearts of many comrades.

As we all know, obsessive-compulsive disorder is a minor illness with a very high incidence rate, the only difference is the severity.

Everyone thinks it is a good idea to get rid of these things as soon as possible, as they are seriously outdated in the domestic equipment series.

It is very common that the most backward ones can still be used, but the less advanced ones are sold. Decades later, the few 053s we have left are just 053H1Gs that are still used until they are worn out, while 053H2G and 053H3 are modified and sold at a discount.

Torpedo boat: You didn’t expect that the backward elements will also have their day.

Comrades unanimously agreed with Gao Zhendong's suggestion. Even the comrades from the Naval Equipment Bureau took the initiative to suggest that if the other party was interested in our small gunboats, we could sell them at any time.

At least this thing is very useful for odd jobs and port affairs, and it's cheap.

Gao Zhendong was not worried that these things would wake up Zang San. Objectively speaking, Xiaoba did not have that ability. It was already their limit if they could protect themselves and gain local advantages.

In the end, the comrades from the foreign affairs department were extremely happy. They had come to discuss the issue of the airplanes, but they did not expect the comrades to be so enthusiastic and bring back a large number of airplanes to sell.

This is very beneficial to his work. Regardless of whether the other party will sell it or not, at least we have shown our sincerity. The key is that what we give is not junk metal, but most of them are truly advanced weapons.

We gave Xiao Bali enough face, which made our comrades in charge of foreign affairs very proud.

As the old saying goes, the only problem with expensive things is that they are expensive. If you don’t buy them, it may be your own problem. Anyway, we are very sincere.

Not long after, the foreign official who received our foreign affairs reply hurriedly took the proposal to meet his superior.

"Sir, this is the reply from the East University, very surprising..." The official's face was full of surprise. By the way, before 47, Xiaoba, like its neighbor Sindhu, was also a colony of John Bull, so it was also very good at calling "Sir".

The boss took the reply document from his hand and read it carefully.

"Ha, Lord Dong is so generous..." The boss laughed happily as he watched.

For him, the document was good news through and through, not the best, but good enough.

"Sir, Lord Dong does not agree to sell us the latest air-to-air missiles, why do you still say he is generous?" His subordinates were a little puzzled.

"Mirza, you have to understand one thing first. They have at least made one thing clear first - that is their attitude."

"manner?"

"Yes, Mirza, their attitude is the most important to us. It means that even if we cannot obtain something now, it is still possible to obtain it under certain conditions. Maybe our bid is high enough, maybe we are in a desperate situation, maybe they have newer technology, etc...."

"Sir, I understand what you mean." Mirza nodded.

It seemed that his boss was very kind to him, and explained something else to him carefully: "At the same time, you have to understand one thing, that is, don't expect to obtain the latest and best weapons from the other side at any time, no matter how good your friends are. To some extent, it is our friends who are protecting us."

This statement from a strange angle made Mirza a little puzzled: "Sir, I don't understand, shouldn't we be protected by giving us the latest weapons?"

"No, no, no. Let me give you an example. If the Citibank people are still providing us with weapons, and at the same time we have obtained the latest weapons from the University of East China, then if the Citibank people ask us to conduct an inspection, what do you think we should do?" The boss gave him an example that was a bit complicated.

"We should..." Then he realized he couldn't go down.

Agree, offending the Lord Dong.

If you disagree, you will offend Citigroup people.

The boss saw his struggling expression and smiled, "Now you understand what I mean, don't you? Master Dong, there is a saying from ancient times that an ordinary person is innocent, but when he possesses a treasure that does not match his ability, he commits a crime."

The new version of this proverb was a bit messy, but the meaning was basically the same, and Mirza understood it.

"Sir, now that you've explained it, it's clearer to me. Ha, Master Dong is really very wise."

"Yes, Mirza, let me tell you another angle. They clearly stated their attitude in this list. They are willing to arm us as much as possible within the permitted scope to help us resist the invasion of the Sindhu people. Moreover, they are very honest and don't even want to lie to us."

The boss was trying his best to teach his subordinates how to look at problems from different angles. "Yes, sir, they have opened up as many advanced weapons as possible that are useful to us." Mirza was not stupid, he could still see the problem.

"Yes, you see, although they cannot provide the latest infrared air-to-air missiles, they still provide a missile whose performance and technology are comparable to White Bear's latest infrared air-to-air missiles. This at least allows us to not lag behind our opponents."

The latest infrared air-to-air missiles that the Sindhu people may have obtained may have come from the Russians or from Citibank, but it is certain that they will not be better than the Light-1 missiles provided by the University of Tokyo.

"At the same time, it is very important that the first aircraft they shot down with air-to-air missiles was this type of missile, which seemed a bit backward to them, but to us, it was still very advanced, at least not inferior to the Citigroup products. The aircraft shot down by this missile even included the U-2, which we dare not even imagine. Yes, it was shot down by this Fighter-6E fighter."

This vivid and distinctive combat example made Xiaoba’s people full of confidence in Raiden-1.

If there is no latest, then there is no latest. What’s the big deal? The Americans are using F-4, but they still haven’t provided this kind of fighter to us.

Xiaoba, who was used to picking up scraps, didn't care about it at all, especially since what Mr. Dong gave him was not scraps.

Looking at the other party's description of the price of the latest missile, they even felt that the price of Light-1 was a bit cute.

"Go prepare, communicate with the military, and prepare to import all the equipment on their list."

Anti-tank missiles, new tanks, missile boats equipped with anti-ship missiles, etc., these weapons are what they urgently need. Fortunately, we still have some dignity and did not agree to sell the Zhengxian No. 1 missile, which is completely outdated and has the technology of an adopted missile.

“Buy all?” That would cost a lot of money, Mirza was a little unconvinced.

"Believe me, people in the military will definitely be interested. Compared with the Air Force, the Army and Navy are actually more eager for new weapons." Because the combat records of these two are worse.

When Mirza was about to turn around and leave, his boss called him.

"Wait a minute, there's one more thing."

"Sir, please give me your orders."

"You can ask them if they can sell us an ammunition production line? At least a rifle bullet production line."

Although they fought fiercely, they, including Sindhu itself, who would later become famous for their "Peshawar technology", could not produce their own bullets.

Don’t disbelieve it, this world is so magical.

In fact, until the 80s, the only problem that had been solved with bullets and artillery shells was the ability to produce them. As for the quality, only those who used them would know, and once they used them, no one would say a word.

Our open, frank and positive attitude towards arms sales gave him hope for a solution to the problem.

Compared to equipment that may involve complex and sensitive technologies, this task does not seem that difficult.

"Sir, do we need to discuss this matter with the military?" Mirza asked.

"Well, we need to discuss this with the military, but I don't think the military has any objection to this."

What objection can they have? When you can barely afford to eat, others are willing to provide you with food. The military is unlikely to have any objection.
-
"Haha, Xiba actually wants to buy a bullet production line from us."

When our comrades received this request, they were in a good mood. It had nothing to do with the bullets, but with the guns.

"Their weapons and equipment are not uniform. What's the point of giving them a bullet production line? It still can't feed all their guns and ammunition."

"No, this time they said that if we are willing to sell them a production line of bullets, then they are willing to buy weapons from us that can use these bullets, even semi-automatic ones."

Even if it is semi-automatic, it is actually much stronger than the British 77 and the like which are still widely used in West Pakistan.

Hmm? Now that's interesting.

In fact, our army equipment is now facing the same problem as 6621 - the old equipment is being replaced and there is nowhere to go!

If imitation AK, as the world's mainstream weapon, can still find a place and even need to be newly produced, then it is really difficult to find buyers for the hundreds of thousands and millions of imitation SKS.

"Well, that's something to consider. The bullet production line isn't a big deal."

There is no need to mobilize a large number of people for this matter, and the decision can be easily reached among the comrades in charge of the relevant work.
