It was only in the evening that I received a document from Djibouti, which included a copy of the protectorate treaty signed with the United States and France, as well as a list of Djibouti's arms procurements.

The copy of the agreement Muyang was handed over directly to the director of the Policy Research Office, who did not know much about policy matters, but he was more curious about what weapons and equipment Djibouti was going to buy.

Opening the catalog, Mu Yang saw many familiar weapon names, such as rifles, bazookas and other weapons. Of course, more, he does not know very well, WZ551 wheeled armored vehicles, ZBL-09 infantry fighting vehicles, WMA301 wheeled assault guns, 053HT frigates, C28A corvettes, F22P corvettes and so on.

As the director of the Military Trade Department of the Equipment Development Department, Senior Colonel Jiang Chen just glanced at the catalog and had a general understanding in his heart.

"It seems that Djibouti really intends to expand its army, this batch of equipment is enough to equip an army of 5,000 people, and with their original equipment, it seems that Djibouti's target is likely to be about 8,000 people, which is not a small move." Senior Colonel Jiang Chen said.

Muyang patiently asked, because this procurement list is only a list of glances, and there is no specific quantity, and the subsequent contact work still needs to be done by Muyang, an intermediary, to determine the specific amount and price, what Djibouti buys is not necessarily, so it must be explained clearly to Muyang.

And the catalog is marked with the models of several Chinese frigates, but Djibouti's idea is only to buy one, and the specific situation also needs to be communicated by Muyang, after all, this involves hundreds of millions of dollars in arms business.

"WZ551 wheeled armored vehicle, equipped with code name ZLS-92 wheeled armored vehicle, currently has turret type and turret type as active main battle equipment, turret type weapons mainly 25mm machine gun and 7.62 mm machine gun, turret type 12.7 mm machine gun, at the same time this type of equipment for our army's current 100mm wheeled assault gun and 105mm self-propelled mortar general chassis."

"ZBL-09 infantry fighting vehicle, the main armament of the ZBL-09 infantry fighting vehicle is a 30-mm cannon, an improved Red Arrow-73C anti-tank missile and a vehicle-mounted 7.62mm side-by-side machine gun. The cannon version can boast a 105 mm or 122 mm howitzer. ”

"The WMA301 wheeled assault gun, with a larger turret and a 105mm gun, is very popular among African countries, and is typically simple, durable, and powerful."

“”

"The Type 053HT frigate is our domestic frigate of the older generation, which has basically been eliminated and has been sold to foreign countries, such as Thailand, where the current price is about 50 million US dollars."

"The F22P frigate is a new improved version of the 053 class, which began construction in 2005 and sold 2 to Pakistan for 160 million US dollars each, and then Pakistan ordered 6 more ships, and it has not yet been fully delivered."

"The C28A light missile frigate is an export-oriented frigate specially built by our country for the Algerian Navy, and its armament is 8 C-802 anti-ship missiles, 1 set of 8 joint launch FM-90N (Haihongqi-7) short-range air defense missile system launchers, 1 H/PJ-26 76 mm general-purpose naval gun, 2 sets of 730 Type 730 seven-barreled 30 mm rapid-fire guns, and 2 324 mm 3-joint torpedo tubes. In addition, a Super Lynx helicopter developed by AgustaWestland can be docked in the frigate's hangar.

The radio and electronic equipment of the C28A corvette adopts a mix and match of Chinese and Western systems, including the SMART-SMk2 three-dimensional multi-beam air-to-sea detection radar developed by Thales Netherlands, the RacalRM-1290 navigation radar, the communication system produced by Thales, and the fire control radar and automated combat command system developed by the China Institute of Systems Engineering. ”

Comrade Colonel shook his head and said, "How to say it, a frigate specially designed for export, which has both Chinese and foreign systems, and can even be used in both directions, but the bloodlines are a little mixed, and it can be regarded as a mixed race." ”

"How much do we export this?" Muyang asked.

"A $300 million is not cheap, but it is one of the best frigates in the world today." Comrade Colonel said.

Muyang smacked his lips, 300 million US dollars a boat, Djibouti is really not willing to buy.

The total amount of army equipment is only 30 million US dollars, and the majority is actually a warship, Muyang understood the offer clearly, and contacted Djibouti, and the two sides began to communicate and coordinate.

Djibouti still feels a toothache for China's offer, but it has already made a strategy to strengthen the army, and this step is necessary, and Chinese weapons are already the cheapest and most practical compared to Western weapons.

On the third day, Djibouti made a decision to purchase about $26.8 million in weapons for the army, and the warship was determined to be an F22P frigate, which was priced at $162 million on the Chinese side. Now is not the time for Djibouti to put on a show, it would be good to have a mainstream frigate and train its own navy, which is much better than the few poor coastal patrol boats before.

The arms procurement has been largely negotiated, and the handover will take a long time, and there will be a long period of study and discussion on the signing of a protectorate agreement with Djibouti.

As for the Chinese army's responsibility for the training of the Djibouti army, it will be possible to do so, and when some of the weapons are shipped to Djibouti, China will send a group of instructors to the city in the name of teaching the use of weapons to begin training the Djibouti army.

Muyang's work in China is basically over, because Djibouti still has a lot of things to be busy with, especially now that the situation in Djibouti is also relatively chaotic, the Japanese foreign minister is still in Djibouti, and US Secretary of State Terry will also visit Djibouti in a few days.

At 10 p.m. on the fourth day, Muyang said goodbye to his family and boarded the plane again for Djibouti.

In the Japanese Embassy in Djibouti, Japanese Foreign Minister Hikaru Utada, Lieutenant General Nishimotoichiro, deputy chief of the General Staff of the Japanese Self-Defense Forces, Tomoro Yoshikawa, Japanese ambassador to Djibouti, and Kurosawa Lin, commander of the Japanese military base in Djibouti, were all present.

"I think that the Djibouti government must be under the influence of the outside world, and there must be an incentive that we don't know about, otherwise for this trivial matter, we would never have done such a thing, made enemies with Japan, and expelled our military bases, you know, we only occupy less than one-fifth of the US military bases, but we pay more rent every year than the United States." Major General Kuize said with a dark face.

Haize Zelin is now under very great pressure, because all the focus of public opinion is focused on the Djibouti military base, and the media in Japan are now reporting on this matter, and he, Ha Zelin, has become a shame for Japan.
