Chapter 1157: A Windfall in South America VIII
"Mr. Wu Chen, although I have known your legendary story for a long time, and we have been working together for a long time, we can be regarded as old friends, but this is the first time we have met in Brazil, I hope you can have a good time during this time." With an excited expression, the Minister of Defense shook hands tightly with Wu Chen and said.
The decision-makers of the mercenary corps are not Thompson and Hunter, nor Marcas, but Wu Chen, a super-director and soul singer who is obsessed with art, and only partner countries that have worked together for a long time will slowly taste it.
In the face of the boss of this super-terrifying military bloc ranked among the top five in the world, the defense minister felt a little impatient when he heard the diplomatic rhetoric of the president's special envoy. But on behalf of the president, on behalf of the Brazilian government, nothing else can be said, while the special envoy of the president has finished speaking, Mr. Minister hurriedly said.
"Brazil is a very beautiful and rich country, but also the most economically developed country in South America, every move is related to the situation in South America, the mercenary corps attaches great importance to the cooperation with the Brazilian military, and is willing to do its part to help the Brazilian armed forces to achieve modernization and reform as soon as possible, looking forward to your country can become a pivotal world military power, in global security affairs, play a greater role." Wu Chen smiled and said.
"Mr. Wu Chen, I heard that Argentina's customized aircraft carrier has been tested at sea, can our Brazilian aircraft carrier be completed by the end of next year?" The commander of the Brazilian Navy asked.
"We always have the needs of our customers in mind, and for this reason, I ask the Black Sea Shipyard and the Cam Ranh Bay Shipyard, as well as the St. Petersburg Northern Shipyard, to temporarily suspend the manufacture of mercenary regiment naval ships and to build three aircraft carriers from Argentina, Brazil and Iran."
"Iran's heavy aircraft carrier was built at the earliest, but the tonnage is relatively large, in fact, the three of you are just upside down, Argentina is the first to receive, followed by Brazil, and finally Iran, I can guarantee that the Brazilian Navy will drive a new aircraft carrier to celebrate the National Day in September next year." Wu Chen said.
The cooperation between the mercenary corps and the Brazilian military has been more than four years now, and at the earliest time it included a medium aircraft carrier with a displacement of 55,000 tons, 24 Shield Guardian 1 carrier-based aircraft and 20 An-70 tactical transport aircraft, a Tigerfish-class attack nuclear submarine, and the leasing of three Sturgeon-class attack nuclear submarines and two Lafayette-class ballistic missile nuclear submarines.
The fifth-generation fighter of the mercenary regiment was born, and Brazil ordered 24 more single-seat twin-engine supersonic stealth all-weather carrier-based aircraft and 24 Shield Defender-2 single-seat single-engine stealth supersonic vertical take-off and landing all-weather fighters.
Finally, there are six Blue Eagle 1 anti-submarine fixed-wing aircraft, 24 Sea Falcon-1 anti-submarine helicopters, 20 Licorn-1 heavy transport helicopters, and four An-71 carrier-based early warning aircraft.
It can be seen from this that most of the resources of the Brazilian military are inclined to the navy, why is this, because the richest cities in Brazil are in the coastal areas, in fact, more than 80 percent of the area has not been utilized, it is not suitable for large-scale armored clusters of the army, and the combat units of the mountain jungle type are the most suitable, as for the air force, it is not the focus, there are carrier-based aircraft and early warning aircraft of the navy, which can completely protect the lifeblood of Brazil.
"Brazil, like all the countries of South America, supports Argentina's reclaim of sovereignty over the Falklands, and for this we will not provide any kind of facility to the British, and we will prohibit trade cooperation during the war, and we know that the Argentine government is determined to devote all its resources to winning the second war." said the Minister of Defense.
On the morning of the same day, Wu Chen held a discussion with the top brass of the Brazilian military in the reception room of the base headquarters, which after all, is also a major event affecting all countries in South America. Everyone lives on this continent, and as the saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, and helping each other is the most strategic approach.
Since South America got rid of colonial rule and passed a period of internal chaos, from the end of World War II to the present, the atmosphere has been relatively quiet, except for the weak strength of various countries, focusing on economic development and people's livelihood, there is no idea of extending its power outward, and there is also part of the reason for the US government.
As everyone knows, the United States, a superpower, is also an international hooligan, and has always regarded Latin America as its own backyard and will never allow foreign forces to interfere, and Latin America's resources are an important foundation for the development of the United States.
"The Federal Government of the Golden Triangle is also very supportive of Argentina's efforts to recover sovereignty over the Falklands, and has provided assistance to the best of its ability, all weapons and equipment customized by the Argentine government are prioritized in my manufacturing plant, and the operators have also learned in advance at various training bases of mercenaries, which is equivalent to saving the Argentine government at least four years."
"Mr. Minister also knows that the Navy and the Air Force are purely technical arms, and there is no way to achieve rapid combat effectiveness. The mercenary corps has a large number of instructors from European and American countries and the former Soviet Union, they are all experienced experts, and all of them have been honed in actual combat, and theory and practice are combined. ”
"I'm going to go to Argentina this time to South America to see how far I'm preparing for the second war, because of the mercenary group's own positioning, it's inconvenient to intervene in this kind of war between the two countries, but it's still no problem to make suggestions."
"In fact, in my opinion, there are not many difficulties in this war, Britain is fighting from a distance, and the logistics support system cannot keep up with the rhythm of the war. In my opinion, Britain's face-saving behavior is undoubtedly a slap in the face, and it is better to simply return the Falklands to Argentina, so that the relations between the two countries will not be so bad. Wu Chen said with a smile.
"People are the descendants of the empire on which the sun never sets, known as the last nobles of mankind, nothing else matters, face is the most important, it is clear that it has gradually decayed, but he gritted his teeth and refused to admit it, especially the words sensitive decay, that is, the military strength of South American countries is almost there, if it is replaced by this war and the mercenary army, I am afraid that it will be returned with dignity a long time ago." The commander of the Brazilian Navy said sarcastically.
Wu Chen almost laughed, what the naval commander said was right, the British government's practice of dying to save face is not news, the selfish character of the aristocracy has led to the inability of Europe to unite, and the current international status has plummeted, why bother!
