Chapter 1427 Saudi Arabia wants to increase the range of Dongfeng-3

In any case, Saudi Arabia has no way to call the shots on whether the United States will fight Iraq.

Maybe it irritated the Americans and changed the Saudi royal family.

Everyone knows this matter well, so there is no entanglement.

Having dinner together at noon, Liu Yijiu originally wanted to go to the exile of the Kuwaiti royal family with Qian Qian to see how Qian Qian comforted the poor Kuwaiti and condemned Iraq’s invasion. At the same time, he had to express China. Great losses in this war.

After all, China also has a lot of investment in Kuwait, billions of dollars.

The money was collected by the Chinese government by tightening its belt and saving money.

Of course, Chinese property still belongs to China, and Saddam’s goods cannot deny China’s legality of these properties because they occupied Kuwait. Otherwise, Director Liu would not agree.

The most important thing is that Liu Yijiu wanted to see how the money boss made Kuwait understand that it should be rebuilt after the war to benefit China. After all, in history, Kuwait rebuilt after the war and paid high prices to ask the Chinese to help them. To extinguish the fire in the oil well, at the same time, a large number of guns were purchased in China and many construction contracts were awarded.

Director Liu naturally hopes to get involved in such things.

However, Faisal hoped that Liu Yijiu would go with him to see Prince Bandar and King Fahd.

There are great opportunities in this, and Director Liu is naturally unwilling to give up.

Therefore, the two separated directly in Jeddah. Foreign Minister Qian was a big man, and naturally took their special plane to fly Taif, while Liu Yijiu took Foreign Minister Faisal’s special plane to go with him to the completed Soviet Union. When I came to the Iraqi missile base, I am currently facing the threat of Saddam. The people in Saudi Arabia are very worried that Iraq will attack Saudi Arabia.

Both Prince Sultan and King Fahd hope to find an opportunity to expose this missile base in the near future, to the people of their country, not only to reassure them, but also to eliminate citizens’ concerns about the large-scale entry of American troops into Saudi Arabia. Worries.

"Liu, you are here, why don't you tell me in advance that I will pick up the plane in person at the airport!" Prince Bandar gave Liu Yijiu a big hug, "These missiles are really powerful, which makes us feel The hard work of the past few years is very worthwhile. We can kill Israel, and we can kill Saddam!"

"..." Liu Yijiu didn't know what to say.

This grandson is really shameless.

They are a missile base here, and it is still a secret base with a very high degree of secrecy. In this, these local tyrants built the entire base very luxuriously and then turned it into a missile city. There is no confidentiality at all. Words.

In the Suleyil area, Saudi Arabia has built two missile launch positions and a missile support position with the help of Chinese engineering companies. At the same time, it has also built a huge missile magazine, liquid fuel/oxidant storage and combat bunkers. Auxiliary facilities such as barracks and power plants were also built.

Even, in order to ensure the rapid maneuverability and transition of missiles, Saudi Arabia has built a high-level combat readiness road in this direction.

Of course, all of this is not criticized.

But in this missile base, the nouveau riche of the dog family is completely exposed to Liu Yijiu's eyes. In the desert where water prices are comparable to gold, the officers’ dormitories at this missile base are all luxurious villas with swimming pools. Liu Yijiu The place where I stayed at night is the villa of Prince Bandar, commander of the missile force.

"His Royal Highness, if you do this, it is too inappropriate for the confidentiality of the missile base. It is easy to reveal the specific location of the base. If a war breaks out..." Liu Yijiu followed to visit the missile base. Said with a frown.

China has built so many missile bases, most of which are built in mountains. Even through satellites, it is difficult to detect them.

Saudi Arabia is too sloppy. It turned out that it was originally around here to keep it secret, so it chose to stay in this remote place, and I don't know how it became such a situation.

"In addition, the life of the garrison here has made the commercial activities around this prosperous..." This has completely formed a large-scale city.

It was kept secret before, and now many family members of military officers have followed here.

"Liu, I know, at your missile base, such a situation is impossible. Their environment is too difficult. Our officers and soldiers can't endure such hardship..." Bandar Said to Liu Yijiu indifferently, "In order to ensure the secrecy, we plan to build a spare missile base in Coffel. This will solve these problems and learn from your army..."

Liu Yijiu was speechless, and the source of his feelings for the Qorff missile base was this.

What else could he say in the face of this?

His Royal Highness completely regarded him as a friend, so he showed him everything about the entire base.After all, Liu Yijiu sold missiles to them, although Iran and Iraq also have such missiles, but they don't know the situation.

Otherwise, he wouldn't regard Liu Yijiu as his friend.

"Liu, Prince Sultan and His Majesty the King hope to show to the people across the country that we have such powerful weapons and equipment through TV broadcast. I don't know what you think about this matter?" In this matter, you must ask the attitude of China.

After all, maintenance depends on the Chinese, and the later technical upgrades must also rely on the Chinese.

"Do you have any communication with relevant personnel of our military?" Liu Yijiu frowned and asked.

In the history of that year, Saudi Arabia did broadcast the missile launching exercise, so that the entire Saudi population was relieved.

"Communication, but they suggested to ask you, and we can't get in touch." Bandar said sincerely.

Liu Yijiu thought for a while, nodded, and then pushed the matter away from his own responsibilities, "The missile was sold to you. At present, your own officers and soldiers are responsible for maintenance and operation. So, do you want to take responsibility for the whole country? The public announces that this matter depends on you. At most we can only suggest..."

Bandar doesn't understand, but Faisal understands this matter very well.

He secretly scolded Liu Yijiu that this kid was a little fox as cunning as Qian Qicheng, and silently nodded to Prince Bandar.

Bandar did not entangle too much on this matter, but asked Liu Yijiu in a joking tone, "Liu, I remember that you promised to carry out later technical upgrades when we purchased. At present, our missiles Although the base can cover Israel, Iran, and Iraq, or the longer range is more useful for us. It’s okay to shoot a missile into the Indian Ocean and see if the missile has expired..."

Obviously, they hope that China can now provide missile technology upgrade services.

After all, the farther the range, the greater the deterrence.

Liu Yijiu frowned. A few years ago, after the missile trade between China and Saudi Arabia was exposed, a lot of troubles occurred. The Americans sold missiles to China in exchange for China's signing of its "Missile Technology Control Treaty." One thing expresses acquiescence.

There is also the relationship between the United States and Saudi Arabia.

The current requirement to increase the range of the missile, although it can bring a lot of profits, is not appropriate.

Immediately, Liu Yijiu shook his head and refused.

"His Royal Highness, I don't think it is suitable to increase the range of missiles at this time. In the entire Gulf region and the Arab world, the most important thing to maintain stability is your country. Because of the oil problem, ordinary countries will not have too bad relations with you. If the missile’s range is expanded, it will even threaten Europe and Southeast Asia..."

The meaning is very clear, if you have a longer range missile, it will cause other countries to worry.

Saudi Arabia, there is no need to engage in such a thing.

"Of course, if it is really necessary, we will not refuse to help you improve the performance of the missile."

Liu Yijiu just used the dragging tactic.

It's time to see what kind of situation is necessary.

"Liu, do you have any views on the current situation between the two of us and Iraq?" Faisal had already left, and Bandar asked Liu Yijiu, "I think our missile force is too single. Compared with Iraq’s missile forces, regardless of the number or types of missiles, are very different..."

"Didn't you purchase a lot of 8208 missiles at the beginning?" Liu Yijiu was at peace. The child was really sensible, but his face was very confused.

At the beginning, the large quantities of 8208 missiles and Dragon Guards purchased by Saudi Arabia from China ended up in Iraq's hands. Liu Yijiu is not clear, but he must express that he is not clear.

Hearing what he said, Bandar's face immediately improved.

Could it be that he told Liu Yijiu that the weapons and equipment they bought at the beginning were used to support the Iraqi brothers, so that they could resist Khomeini's army and prevent Khomeini from exporting revolution to them.

"Liu, those missiles were in the hands of Iraqis..." Although Bandar was embarrassed, he still told the truth, "They have thousands of missiles with a range of about 300 kilometers, and they have also purchased a lot of Scud missiles from the Soviet Union. , Otherwise, we would not worry about them so much."

"So, how are you preparing now? Do the Americans know this news?" He did not expect that Saudi Arabia would give all 8208 missiles to Iraq.
