496 Five billion dollars of business
"Why did you come back so late?" When Xie Kai returned to the hotel, it was already early in the morning, and Tian Li looked at Xie Kai with a cold face.
Following Xie Kai on a business trip, she had a deep sense of frustration.
From the beginning of her trip to Xiangjiang, she found that with Xie Kai, she couldn't complete her tasks at all, and sometimes Zheng Yucheng and others even asked her to violate the principles of the organization or something.
Every time she didn't want to come, she was arranged by her superiors to follow Xie Kai.
"Let's talk about something. Xie Kai didn't bother to explain to Tian Li, "Rest, we have to go over there tomorrow to solve the problem." ”
"What did you talk to them about?" Tian Li gritted her teeth and asked a little unwillingly, but soon Xie Kai's snoring sounded.
Early the next morning, the convoy reappeared, and the three-row Hongqi sedan was able to sit abroad, which made the group excited, and even Li Li kept looking at Xie Kai all the way, what was she, a student, doing in secret.
In Tanzania, there are armored vehicles to open the road for protection, and there are luxury cars at the level of national military vehicles.
However, Luo Feng and Qian Fatzi didn't know much about Xie Kai at all, Tian Li knew some, but she didn't say anything, and Li Li was also extremely depressed.
"Thanks, you've finally woken up. Ibrahim, dressed in a traditional white Arabic robe and wearing a turban on his head, opened his arms to Shakai in front of a huge Il-76 transport plane.
"General, your outfit can completely amaze the whole of Tanzania. Didn't you fly on a private plane before? How could you fly on a military transport plane?" Xie Kai was a little puzzled.
Ibrahim arrived last night, and today we will go together to the place where they have been assigned to them.
Li Li and the others were even more surprised, how could Xie Kai have friends wherever he went?
And they're all local tyrants or something.
For the Il-76, a military transport plane that is more than twice as thick as the Yun 10, the group is not familiar with it at all.
"You'll find out if you go up and have a look. Ibrahim smiled and said, "It's a gift from me." ”
The huge Il-76 military transport plane parked at the airport, with the tail cargo door closed, entered the cabin directly through a spiral staircase near the nose.
Luo Feng and Qian Fatzi were curious and wanted to follow in, but they were stopped by the soldiers guarding the hatch, and they could only complain on the side.
Xie Kai didn't let them in together, after all, there were some things that were not suitable for them to see.
As soon as he entered, Xie Kai found that it was not a simple military aircraft.
"After the design of the double deck has been modified, in the front part, it belongs to the private activity space, the back can be used to transport soldiers, and the lower floor, it is used to transport supplies and equipment......" For this Il-76 transport aircraft, Ibrahim is very proud, "It is designed according to my ideas, and it can be used as a private jet without affecting enjoyment." ”
In the so-called private part of the cabin, it is indeed very luxurious, with sofas, even a wine cabinet, etc., and in the upper part near the cockpit, there is actually a luxurious bed!
It is simply not clear that this is a military transport aircraft.
Compared with this thing, Yun Shi is not only much smaller in size, but even the inside, it is really incomparable.
Xie Kai didn't see the gift Ibrahim said, this cargo is absolutely impossible to give himself a plane, right?
I thought to myself, but I didn't speak.
Ibrahim took Xie Kai to the back, which was different from the luxury in front, and the back part was in ordinary cabin mode, not even a seat, extending to the rear of the plane.
"This part is for transporting supplies or soldiers. Ibrahim pointed to the inside of the plane and introduced it to Shekai.
It's just that it's all empty.
Xie Kai was a little impatient, and Ibrahim led him down the spiral staircase inside the cabin to the bottom cargo compartment.
"Damn!" Seeing the things in the bottom cargo hold, Xie Kai instantly came out with dirty words!
In the not too narrow cargo hold of the plane, there are actually a lot of weapons and ammunition, light machine guns, rocket launchers, and ammunition boxes, which can be seen at a glance.
This is not shocking, Xie Kai has seen a lot.
And what shocked him was that this cargo was loaded with two BTR-80 infantry fighting vehicles!
"General, you're not going to launch a military coup in Tanzania, are you?" Xie Kai's throat was a little dry, and in this, the shock given to him by the two infantry fighting vehicles was really a bit big.
This is not a 14.5 caliber KPVT tank machine gun for the main armament, nor a 12.7 mm high-level dual-purpose machine gun, but a 30 mm cannon!
"How is it possible, if this little weapon and ammunition alone can overthrow the regime of a country, then can their regime still exist?" Ibrahim said, "This is a sample that the Soviets have modified and provided for us to use, and it has been scrapped......
Xie Kai looked at the two brand-new wheeled infantry fighting vehicles, Xie Kai sighed, and estimated that the two combat vehicles were floating from the logistics warehouse of the Iraqi Ministry of Defense.
"This is a gift to you, and I think that if you have a prototype, it will be very useful for your base to work in this area. Of course, if you don't want to, then leave it here. Seeing Xie Kai's strange expression, Ibrahim smiled and spoke.
"General, you won't give it to me for nothing, will you?" these things ......" Xie Kai looked at the weapons and ammunition that was full of the engine room, and he didn't know how this cargo communicated with the Tanzanian government, so he actually let him transport it in this way.
Iraq's diplomatic relations with Tanzania do not seem to be good, while their enemy, Persia, has good relations with Tanzania.
Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief.
"There are no conditions. I just want our mercenaries to start their business as soon as possible, and before that, I have signed a military contract with the Cuban side, and we will provide 100 military personnel to support the Angolan People's Liberation Movement and help them deal with the mercenaries who support the rebellion......" Ibrahim's words, so that Shekai did not know how to answer.
Obviously, this thing is more enthusiastic about this kind of thing than Xie Kai imagined.
"How can we have so many people? The main force of the river crab mercenary group is in Afghanistan. ”
"The Soviets provide twenty retired special forces members, we provide twenty people, and the River Crab Mercenary Group provides twenty people......," Ibrahim said excitedly, "and the security fee of $1.2 million a month will be rewarded by the SPLM during the war...... What's more, we can get some diamond mining rights. ”
The corners of Xie Kai's mouth twitched.
He felt that things were definitely not so simple, and he was not in a hurry to set off, let alone the people waiting under the plane.
Things are definitely not so simple.
looked at Ibrahim and didn't speak, Ibrahim was a little embarrassed by Xie Kai, and finally lost, "Okay, okay, this has nothing to do with Cuba, Kabila, you know?"
Xie Kai shook his head blankly.
This part of Africa is so chaotic.
There are rebels everywhere, or some international careerists.
"Laurent Désiré Kabila, the rebel leader of the Republic of Zaire, was the target of a hefty $3 million reward from Mobutu, President of the Republic of Zaire......" Ibrahim introduced Kabila to Shekai.
"The third president of the Democratic Republic of the Congo?" Xie Kai immediately reacted.
Ibrahim looked at Xie Kai with a shocked expression.
Xie Kai was a little embarrassed, "Mobutu's goods are not a good thing, and they are supported by the United States!"
"Yes, the CIA used transport planes to put the 4th and 7th Infantry Battalions, the most elite in Zaire, into the Angolan battlefield......"
"Wasn't that a long time ago?" Xie Kai frowned, looking at Ibrahim.
Iraq shouldn't wrestle with the United States at this time, right?
Knowing that the Angolan civil war was a ghost played by the United States behind the scenes, the Soviet Union had a reason to intervene?
"No, many soldiers of the Republic of Zaire have been thrown into the Angolan civil war, and as long as they fight a few battles without dying, they will be promoted when they return...... and in this situation, Mobutu's army is getting stronger and stronger," Ibrahim explained, "Kabila's guerrillas have been launching counter-offensives, and each time they have suffered heavy casualties, and it just so happens that I know him ......"
"Are they rich?" Xie Kai thought, the world is crazy.
When he arrived in Africa, he found that the most frequent wars in the world were far more complicated than he imagined.
"They don't have money, but they have gold and diamonds!" Ibrahim said, licking his lips, "This batch of weapons and ammunition is actually for them, but the infantry fighting vehicles are really for you." ”
"The Tanzanian government is letting it go?" Xie Kai didn't believe.
A friend of an enemy is not necessarily an enemy, but it will definitely not be a friend, let alone a relationship of interest?
"When Amin was in Uganda, Kabila fought alongside Uganda's current Minister of Defence and his classmate Museveni...... "After Uganda overthrew Amin, Kabila replied again about Burundi's mountain activities in Tanzania and often crossing Lake Tanganyika to attack Mobutu-controlled gold or diamond mines......
With this explanation, everything makes more sense.
"Thanks, you don't know, Mobutu's bastard is not a good man at all, although he is not like the evil Amin and Bokassa who eat human flesh, but he is definitely more brutal than them!" Ibrahim said with an angry face, "Mobutu's bastard, robbed the whole of Zaire's wealth, if we catch him......"
Speaking of the back, there is only greed left on the face.
For Mobutu, Xie Kai knows something.
Ugandan President Amin, Central African Emperor Bokassa, and Zairean puppet President Mobutu, known as the three tyrants of Africa, are brutal to the extent of which those who have not experienced it, absolutely cannot understand.
"You chose the camp over there, I thought you were planning this. So, I contacted Kabila! Kabila said that once we can get rid of Mobutu, all his personal wealth can belong to us......" Ibrahim, who became more and more excited, stretched out a slap in the face, "Thank you, this is a big business with at least five billion dollars!"
