Recently, high-ranking officials in China have been discussing peacekeeping forces with the United Nations.
To become a great power, a powerful great power...
We cannot simply look at domestic economic and military strength.
We also need to consider its influence on the world.
The reason why Americans can act so domineeringly around the world is...
Isn't it just relying on its overseas military bases? The United Nations is already a private sector of the United States.
If there's a problem, go to the United Nations; after all, I never pay my dues.
If it were possible to establish a military airfield in Saudi Arabia and station some troops from the Northern Military Region there...
This would greatly enhance China's influence and give it a greater say in the Middle East.
"Principal Su, I knew you wouldn't forget me. Since you've said that, I'll accept it!"
Su Linxing is in charge of the research and development of military equipment, but for stationed troops, it's safer to entrust it to Commander Tang.
Businessmen should focus on business and not get involved in too many things, or their lives will be threatened.
"However, it won't be that quick yet. We need our Dongfeng-21 series missiles to be successfully delivered to the big dog's location."
Only then can the formal signing of control of the consulate be completed. At that time, you can build an airport if you want.
"Let them deploy tanks if they want; we can finally challenge the US's overseas military bases."
"Then hurry up and send it by sea, right?"
Commander Tang learned from Su Lin that this time, the big dog owner specifically requested that the shipment be transported by sea.
The Dongfeng-21 series missiles must be transported via the Persian Gulf.
They claim maritime transport is safe and inexpensive, but it's really just a show of force to those small fry in the Middle East.
Our dog-owning family possesses the capability to launch ballistic missiles with nuclear warheads.
You younger brothers, watch your attitude from now on.
Go to the children's table for the meeting.
"Uh-huh!"
Su Lin nodded. He had originally planned to have Uncle Liu contact the cargo shipping company.
Uncle Liu also has many business partners in Zhejiang.
However, these are transporting ballistic missiles, and the safety qualification requirements are extremely stringent.
Since establishing Lanxiang Group, Su Lin has always adhered to the principle of legal operation.
We will pay every penny of taxes and absolutely abide by the policies of the Chinese nation.
Unfortunately, he was in the arms business, which made things complicated.
"What's wrong, Brother Su? Is there some difficulty with the transportation business?"
Commander Tang immediately saw through Su Lin's predicament.
"After all, these are missiles, so the customs clearance procedures still require approval from the local customs authorities."
The process is fine, it's just that the progress is a bit slow.
"Principal Su, orders worth tens of billions—how much foreign exchange will that earn for China?"
If you have any problems, come to me. Do you think I, Old Tang, don't have any connections in the East?
I'll contact Commander Yuan of the Eastern Military Region for you right now.
Customs procedures are a simple matter of a single sentence.
Commander Tang took out his phone.
They reached the command center office of the Eastern Military District.
"Old Yuan, what are you busy with? I've got a big business opportunity for you!"
At this time, Commander Yuan was holding a high-level meeting of the military region's northern branch.
"Old Tang, we're in a meeting. Just say what you need to say. This meeting will impact the military strength of the Chinese Navy for decades to come."
"Meetings, meetings! Look at me, I'm never in meetings! In the military region's skills competitions, when has our Northern Military Region ever not come in first?"
You're just too bookish, kid. There's a shipment to be sent to the Middle East.
"You need to give customs a heads-up. Aren't all these major ports under your jurisdiction as the commander of the Eastern Military Region?"
Commander Yuan waved his hand, signaling the officers in the office to continue the discussion.
"Old Tang, with your assault rifles and grenades, do I really need to bribe them?"
Didn't customs already have approval procedures in place?
The Northern Military District has consistently supplied its Pakistani allies with various land warfare weapons and individual combat equipment.
Although this deal wasn't large, it was still extra income that could subsidize a significant portion of military spending.
It has always been under the command of Commander Tang of the Northern Military Region.
Commander Yuan thought it was just another matter of selling assault rifles and bullets.
"Why would I need to come to you if I sold a few guns? This time we're selling ballistic missiles."
Is your frigate still using anti-aircraft guns to shoot down planes?
"How about I get you a few sets of ship-to-air missiles?"
"Ship-to-air missiles??? Your Northern Military Region even has these???"
This immediately piqued Commander Yuan's interest.
The main topic of discussion at this meeting was the import of a semi-finished aircraft carrier from Ukraine.
As the basic model for China's aircraft carrier, it will be developed.
However, we encountered many difficulties along the way.
Not only are Ukrainian pork being sold at exorbitant prices, but they're also demanding a $1 billion toll for Turkish chickens.
It would take at least a year and a half for the aircraft carrier to be transported to China.
In addition, there's imitation, disassembly, research and development, and upgrading.
China's ambition to possess its first aircraft carrier is a long and arduous journey.
If we could possess ship-to-air missiles, it would perfectly compensate for the lack of combat capability of an aircraft carrier.
"You guys continue your discussion. I have an important conference call. The conference report will be on my desk later."
Commander Yuan took the phone and went to the adjacent lounge.
The guard gently closed the door and stood guard outside.
"Our Northern Military Region has nothing, so tell me if you'll help us or not."
"You're not going to help me find Commander Wang of the Southern Military Region? I hate people who dawdle!"
"No, no, no! Please! Old Tang, is the navy of the Southern Military Region stronger than that of my Eastern Military Region?"
"I'm practically drinking tea with the head of customs every day. If you go to Commander Wang, that kid will definitely ruin your plans!"
Commander Wang was also an innocent bystander caught in the crossfire because of the ship-to-air missiles.
Commander Yuan called him a country bumpkin.
"This time we need five giant cruise ships, and we also need your fleet to provide covert escort."
Once we reach the Persian Gulf, the rest is up to us!
"No problem, it's just a few frigates. But let me make this clear first..."
After this is all over, get me a ship-to-air missile system.
"Things haven't been peaceful in my eastern waters lately, so I need to show off my new equipment."
"Then I'll bring Principal Su over tomorrow, and prepare tea. We've been eating Lanzhou noodles lately."
"I'm completely marinated, it'll wash away the gamey smell!"
"Come on! I'll send someone to pick you up tomorrow when you arrive. Don't worry, it'll be Wuyishan Da Hong Pao tea."
"I won't open the gate until you arrive, okay?"
"Let's talk tomorrow when we meet!"
Commander Tang shook his phone.
"Principal Su, it's all settled. But could you also get a set of HQ-16FE air defense missiles for our Commander Yuan?"
Please forgive and forget about what happened at the previous meeting.
Su Lin had previously stated that the HQ-16FE air defense missile could be launched not only from silos but also from mobile launchers.
Sea-to-air launch,
Compared to the Dongfeng-21 series, the Hongqi-16FE air defense missile is not expensive.
I'll give one set to Commander Yuan as a small gift.
