Chapter 225: Secret Sale of Chemical Weapons

The second update is complete

This was the first time Victor had set foot in the city of Baghdad, and although he had come to this place with a South African passport, the top brass in Baghdad, who had made contact with the Soviet Union, naturally knew that this man, who did not seem to have the slightest Russian temperament in him, was a negotiator sent by the Soviet Union.

This time, Yanayev intends to make a big and risky deal to surprise Saddam's sales before the official launch of the Chemical Weapons Convention. This time, Yanayev did not give Saddam Hussein a batch of chemical weapons, but directly provided a batch of mechanical supporting facilities for the production of chemical weapons.

Even though Victor is a battle-hardened international arms dealer, this is the first time he has handled such a deal. In case of the East Window incident, Victor will have to face multiple pursuits by the Mossad, the CIA, and MI6, after all, he is now an important figure on the CIA's blacklist, of course, his crime is not to undermine world peace, but to rob the CIA's arms business.

As soon as Victor got off the bus, he covered his face with an Arabic scarf, and the street was so noisy that he had to carefully avoid these people and walk towards the agreed remote alleyway. At the same time, you have to be wary of whether anyone is following you behind.

At the end of the alley, a jeep was waiting for him, and several unfriendly-looking guys were waiting for Victor to get into the car, and they threw a hood to Victor and motioned for him to take it.

Without hesitation, Victor put the airtight hood on his head, and then after a series of body searches, he was pushed into the jeep and headed for an unknown destination. It was so quiet that Victor could only hear his own breathing and the roar of the engines as the car moved.

Now Victor is like a helpless fly. Although he now has a large number of arms orders in local armed conflicts around the world, which even makes him a wealthy bourgeoisie. But Viktor was well aware that his interests were with the USSR. and Yanayev closely united. If he had the idea of defecting, then no matter where he went in the world, there would be a group of persistent KGB agents who wanted to assassinate him, and the lives of his family members in the Soviet Union would be at risk.

So no matter whether the destination given to him by the Soviet Union is heaven or hell, he must move forward without hesitation, because he has no way back. Just like now. As long as the people around him give him a bullet, Victor can't do anything.

But at least Saddam Hussein was a sane and ambitious man, and how dare he offend the representatives sent by the Soviet side. Therefore, a meeting was specially arranged in Saddam's secret stronghold. Victor felt the noise on the road grow fainter, and he didn't know that he was far away from the city of Baghdad, into some desolate Gobi deep in the desert.

Victor only felt that the light in his eyelids had suddenly become a little dim, and the car had already driven into a cave, where Saddam Hussein and his guards had been waiting for Victor for a long time. With regard to the coveted weapons of mass destruction, Saddam Hussein personally intervened in the negotiations.

The mask on Victor's face was removed, and at first he was not used to the dim light of the cave. It wasn't until his vision slowly became clear that he saw the middle-aged man in front of him, the thick beard between the corners of his mouth, and the somewhat erratic gaze when he saw Victor.

Victor, who was observant, could see at once that Saddam Hussein in front of him had something unspeakable. But he did not rush to ask questions, but greeted all the negotiators politely, "Thank you very much President Saddam Hussein for taking time out of his busy schedule to come out to meet me." ”

Of course, for Saddam, what could be more important than weapons of mass destruction? He also politely replied, "Mr. Victor, please send me sincere greetings to the people of the Soviet Union......

"You're mistaken. President Saddam. Victor shook his head, "This deal was not initiated by the Soviet government. It's that one of my secret employers happens to have a shipment of chemical weapons in his hands, you know? ”

Victor was actually telling Saddam Hussein himself not to say the term Soviet Union, and he did not dare to guarantee that there would be no bugging devices in the place, or that CIA agents were monitoring his every move hundreds of kilometers away.

"Don't worry, Mr. Victor. This is my secret stronghold. Few people know where I'm hiding but myself. Saddam Hussein was trying to ease the atmosphere, but when he met Victor's cold eyes, he had to swallow the next sentence that came to his mouth.

"Be careful in everything, when you returned to Tikrit the year before last to recuperate. Didn't you come close to being hit by a car bomb? Besides, over the years, has Samod planned fewer plans against you? They want to wipe you out. One because of oil interests, the other because of purely religious issues. Victor said bluntly, not caring whether these questions would irritate Saddam's nerves.

"I don't want to talk about these issues, but let's get down to business. The Soviet Union will provide you with a batch of equipment for the manufacturing process of V-X gas, Soman gas and Sha-Lin gas, and these things can only be traded in gold. Victor was blunt, and he gestured to the briefcase at his feet, indicating if he could open him.

Saddam Hussein nodded and made a gesture of please.

Fearing being killed by Saddam's bodyguards, Victor made every step carefully until he opened the box and placed three transparent glass bottles on the table in turn. This prosaic bottle word also has a seemingly complex electronic device on it. This is the switch button that initiates the detonator.

Victor swept the table with his right hand and said to Saddam, "What is presented in front of you is Soman poison gas, Ta-Bang poison gas and sarin poison gas. ”

Almost as soon as Victor finished speaking, he was put on the forehead with Kalashnikov, who thought that Victor was sent by the CIA to assassinate Saddam Hussein, and almost shot everyone. Surprisingly, Saddam Hussein actually scolded his bodyguards not to be so rude to their guests.

The point against his head was removed, and Victor finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that he is not going to die. Saddam said apologetically, "They are just too loyal, and they don't have much malice." ”

Saddam looked at the colorless and invisible gas in the bottle with amusement and asked, "Are you going to sell us a batch of poison gas?" Like the ones you carry? ”

"Strictly speaking, it's not." Victor shook his head, he took out another contract from his briefcase, but in his eyes it still doesn't make sense to sign it at this time, if Iraq defaults, the Soviet Union will not directly send troops to crush it, but Saddam Hussein is not a fool, he knows very well what will happen if he dares to negotiate business with the Soviet Union.

What's more, Saddam Hussein was not a fool, he naturally knew the necessity of this deal, so Saddam, who only had money left, was naturally happy to reach this deal with the Soviet Union.

"Our trading conditions are that you must use gold as the currency of repayment and payment." The Soviet government, which already had enough savings in foreign currency, did not care about Saddam's little money. What's more, the wind has been on the tight side recently, and if you use US dollars to pay at will, once the United States detects it, it will inevitably go through the bloody storm of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Saddam Hussein was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Russia to ask such a question, so he had to ask, "Why use gold as a payment method, we can pay the corresponding dollars, we have such an economic capacity." ”

"No why, that's just our condition, if you agree, we'll sign a contract, don't promise that we will have the opportunity to work together again in the future......" Victor said lightly, with an attitude of whether you like to buy or not, I look for someone else.

Later, Victor added a devastating sentence, "I wonder if Iran is interested in these things...... )
