874 is not favored escorts

"Oilfield?" Xie Kai's eyes lit up, and they quickly dimmed.

If you want the oil field to have a fart, you have to invest something, and more importantly, Iran is sanctioned, which will be a matter of more than ten or twenty years.

Even if it really gets better, they have to sign an agreement to abandon nuclear research.

"Yes, the oil field. We can pay with oil fields. Hazari said.

"Big mullah, I'm personally very willing to do this. But you know, it's a big deal, and you have to go back and report it to your superiors, who agree that we can continue talking. Xie Kai said.

In this way, it would be tantamount to no progress in the negotiations.

"Thanks, if that's the case, I don't think it's going to be a good time for us to keep your convoy safe. ”

"What if we can also guarantee the safety of your tankers and merchant ships?" Xie Kai said, "This is equivalent to an exchange, how?"

Between these two countries, anyway, they are looking for each other's ships to bomb.

As Liao Dong said, it is not good and fair to only transport the oil of the Iraqis, so I simply talk to the Iraqis again, so that the mercenaries will have a very large benefit.

Ibrahim is also the owner of a mercenary group.

It was impossible for him to disagree.

"Seriously?" If that's the case, even if you can't make another deal this time, it's a very big result.

Persia's small domestic oil production needs to be transported by tankers, and after being sanctioned by Europe and the United States, the domestic goods that need to be imported are also extremely scarce. Iraqi warplanes, especially the MiG-23, which has a combat radius of more than 1,100 kilometers, went to the vicinity of Bandar Abbas on the shore of the Strait of Hormuz to bomb oil tankers or merchant ships.

"Yes, but this matter has to sign a security contract with the River Crab Mercenary Group. Xie Kai said.

"How can they guarantee it?" the Persians apparently did not believe that the river crab mercenary group had such abilities.

Xie Kai came to do it, and it was about the same.

"As with you. Xie Kai didn't say too clearly, "Two, at present, we only have this batch of crude oil in our hands, and we need to settle before we can get the payment." In order to prevent accidents in this batch of payments, each oil tanker will be equipped with anti-aircraft weapons and other ......"

At present, the Persians mainly rely on high-speed patrol boats and small armed boats to attack oil tankers, and the weapons they are equipped with are only 107 mm rockets, RPG-7 rocket launchers, machine guns, etc.

Kuwait had asked the United States for help in escorting the ship, and the Americans armed their merchant ships, and the crews were issued with rocket launchers and firearms, but there was no heavy firepower.

Xie Kai said that the mercenary group should be equipped with anti-aircraft missiles, etc.

The Persians are not sure whether they will be armed with anti-ship missiles.

Although the Chinese C-801 Exocet is very large, God knows if there is any other way for these rockets to be fired directly by ignition and launch.

"Thanks, can you tell me what defensive weapons you sell to the damned Arabs?"

"The missile defense system, the two sides of you shoot missiles at each other, and they can't hit them accurately, so they want to use the missile defense system to shoot down the missiles you launch. Xie Kai didn't hide it now.

The more you tell the opponent, the more hole cards he has available.

This missile defense system, the Persians will definitely not introduce.

It's too expensive.

"The kind used by the Saudis?"

Xie Kai nodded, "General, big mullah, if you are interested, you can make an appointment to talk about it later." But for now, I would like you to raise your hand, and I would like to inform you of the areas where your country has laid mines......"

The Persians did not make promises.

In this meeting, the two sides hardly reached any substantive progress.

But Xie Kai knew that the other party would weigh the consequences.

"That's it?" Liao Dong asked.

He thought that Shekai would have to sign a contract with the Persians or something.

"Otherwise, they'll weigh it anyway. Are your men ready? We'll fly directly to Oman, the more luxurious the weaponry, the better, and maybe some other hired business. ”

"There are not enough people here, so they will be mobilized from Tanzania and will come over soon, and Muscat doesn't have a few ships now. But the avant-garde ......"

"In the cargo hold, there are 60 pieces for you. Xie Kai said.

Everything was well prepared before departure.

Through Iraqi connections, the Omani government did not show too much concern about the landing of the Yun-10 from China.

Arriving at the same time as the Y-11 was a Pakistan Airlines Boeing 707, which was a plane transporting mercenaries.

Ibrahim's plane also landed in Muscat.

When he saw the heavily armed mercenaries at the airport, he didn't believe that it was a mercenary group in which he also had a stake.

The GIs had different colors of skin, wore camouflage uniforms, and painted camouflage on their faces.

These mercenaries, who only had crabs with teeth and claws on their shoulders, each of them carrying either a single missile launcher or a single rocket launcher on their backs, attracted the attention of the entire airport.

"Sheikh, this is Rear Admiral Badr, commander of the Omani Navy. During the formation of the mercenary team, Ibrahim introduced an Arab who was less than fifty and wearing military uniforms.

The commanders of the Navy are alarmed?

Xie Kai smiled and shook hands with General Badr, "General, thank you very much for your support. ”

"No, thank you for bringing mercenaries. Damn the Persians, they are constantly attacking cargo ships from all over the world......" said Rear Admiral Badr, shaking his head.

The Omani navy is very small, with a total number of 3,000 people, and is equipped with only a few patrol boats, and there are no two gunboats.

Compared to the other six Gulf countries, their navy is not even stronger than that of countries like Bahrain and Qatar.

"The general is polite, I can't help it. Our friend Iraqi crude oil can't be shipped, which affects our trading ......"

Xie Kai's words made Ibrahim on the side despise, but he did not expose it.

"Thanks, this mercenary group didn't have much reputation before. "Badr doesn't know much about the River Crab Mercenary Corps.

For Xie Kai, he is even more unfamiliar.

However, Ibrahim was present, and President Silly Oki had taken care of Sultan Qaboos, and Oman also wanted someone to clean up the Persians, so they agreed to allow mercenaries to enter their country.

"Badr, these mercenaries are very active in Africa, and last year's counterinsurgency in Burundi took only a few days. They are equipped with fighters, tanks, artillery, etc......., "Ibrahim saw that it was an opportunity to earn money for himself, so he naturally would not let it go, and introduced the situation of the river crab mercenary group.

Chaotic Africa, with its political turmoil, not many people pay attention to it at all.

Oman is a country that is worried about its own security, so naturally it is not so much concerned.

"In that case, why is there no such thing as a reputation?" Badr questioned Ibrahim's words.

"The missile base in South Yemen is what they found. And the Saudi royal family has signed tens of millions of dollars in employment contracts with them!" Ibrahim's words shocked Badr even more.

He began to wonder if the Omani intelligence services were paralyzed.

Compared to General Badr, who knew the inside story, people from other countries in the airport were in a row.

"This is the U.S. military?"

"How is it possible that the American army, how can the American army not have a Western face!"

"The Americans simply did not dare to come to escort ......"

"What's that sign on their shoulders? Is it a crab?"

People from all over the world looked at the group of mercenaries lined up in a straight line behind the whole group and talked about it.

But no one knows what they do.

The Omani military's convoy loaded the mercenaries and headed straight from the airport to the dock, where reporters from various countries who were already at the airport noticed and followed them to the dock to see what the heavily armed mercenaries were trying to do.

"That oil tanker!" When the reporters followed to the harbor, they found that several huge oil tankers were already docked outside the harbor.

The mercenaries didn't stay long, they landed small boats on the dock and carried them to the oil tanker in the distance.

"Escort!"

The crowd didn't know who roared first, so the whole dock was in a stir.

In May '84, after the F-4E fighter used Maverick missiles to sink the Kuwaiti oil tanker um um Qabashi, which was transporting oil to the UK, the Persians began to carry out indiscriminate attacks on the merchant ships of various countries in the Gulf that supported Silly Damu to fight with them.

Today, Oman's capital, Muscat, is filled with empty oil tankers and laden cargo of valuable goods.

There has been no fleet escort.

At most, a few small warships of the Americans in the Gulf came out to play soy sauce.

Now, finally, there is an army escort.

"Escort has finally begun!"

"Without warships, fighter jets, and helicopter gunships, can we do a good job of escorting the convoy?"

"Either way, it at least means that the international community is starting to intervene. ”

"The Persian Gulf is too big!"

"The Americans also issued weapons to Kuwaiti oil tankers, aren't they still being bombed!"

Most people are not optimistic about this simple escort model.

Reporters from all over the world quickly took photos and thought about how to write the script.

The global economy is not doing well, and the price of oil is still high, and everyone is almost unable to refuel when driving.

Such a thing as escorting ships in the Persian Gulf can naturally attract people's attention.

Xie Kai and the others watched the people of the mercenary group get on the giant ship, and soon, on the mast of the giant ship, a white flag of crabs with teeth and claws began to flutter.

"Set sail. Xie Kai watched the giant ship move slowly after honking its horn, and his eyes were reluctant to take it back for a long time.

Ibrahim, on the other hand, was unimpressed, "Let them teach the damned Persians a hard lesson!"

General Badr was on the side, and when he heard this, "General, I didn't want to pour cold water on you, but this way of escorting seems to really not work." ”

"Really?" Xie Kai said calmly, "whether it will work or not, we will not know until these oil tankers come out." ”

He can't say that before this, I went to the Persians and threatened them not to bomb Lao Tzu's oil tankers, right?

"General, we should talk about something else. Shekai said to Ibrahim.

It's time to talk about the oil tankers and merchant ships that keep the Iraqis from blowing up the river crab mercenary regiments, and the flags of the mercenary regiments that help the Persians transport oil.
