Great Power Ship

Chapter 290 The total value of the contract is 1.2 million US dollars

Shao Zhong felt that he had realized it.

But he didn't understand it too well, because after thinking about it for a while, Shao Zhong thought that in such a big scene, he couldn't do such a foolish thing with ease... Er... He never tires of cheating.

What does this mean?
My skills are not at home yet!

How else can you say that he is an old comrade? With this hand alone, Shao Zhong is really convinced in his heart!

So Shao Zhong was more serious than before, not only working harder on translation, but also paying attention to Wen Dawei's every move.

At this time, Wen Dawei, who opened the breakthrough, did not have the habit of repairing halfway like the Bosnian army. Instead, he immediately took advantage of the victory and pursued. He reached an agreement with the Bosnian National Guard in the transformation of the hull, the configuration of the naval gun, the upgrade of the fire protection system, and the improvement of firepower. One preliminary intention after another.

All of them add up, and the total amount exceeds 6400 million US dollars.

It was nearly double the $3600 million previously proposed by Wen Dawei.

Coupled with supporting ammunition, maintenance and training costs, the total contract value reached 8000 million US dollars.

Not to mention that, Wen Dawei also took the opportunity to sell some miscellaneous things such as conventional artillery shells and marine spare parts produced by Zhujiang Factory, and the total amount of Lin Linsong directly soared to 1.2 million U.S. dollars.

The Bosnian side that paid such a high price is not without conditions, and that is Ming Qiu's request to abandon the maintenance and upgrade of the light frigate "Majid" of the Mesopotamian Navy.

Otherwise, Bosnia will directly cancel the contract signed with Zhujiang factory.

There was nothing to do, Wen Dawei naturally agreed happily, and swore in front of Brigadier General Muhsin and Colonel Ismail.

However, because Wen Dawei's previous "bad deeds" still did not gain the full trust of Muhsin and Ismail, in the end there was no way, Wen Dawei agreed to add a clause in the contract, that is, in the next three months Within the Gulf countries and regions, it is not allowed to sell or transfer any technology and products related to military ships.

Of course, Bosnia also wanted to further add restrictions on other "special industrial products". Wen Dawei's attitude towards this was that there was no discussion at all.

It's a joke, people in Mesopotamia also consume a lot of regular consumables such as shells. It can be regarded as a stable cash flow for the Zhujiang factory, how could Wen Dawei cut it off.

In this way, from the middle of the afternoon to six o'clock, the two parties finally roughly finalized the text of the contract of 1.2 million US dollars.

All that remains is to wait for the confirmation and approval of the competent authorities of both parties, and Zhujiang Shipbuilding Factory will officially start the modification and upgrade of the "Babur" destroyer.

In this regard, the competent authorities of both sides are basically going through the motions. After all, each takes what they need, so there are not so many twists and turns.

This is indeed the case, and the main authorities of both parties quickly approved the deal worth 1.2 million U.S. dollars.

Soon the "Babur" destroyer composed of Zhujiang Factory and N Fleet was established in Masur Naval Port in Bosnia, and at the same time, the Bosnian Navy also began to make corresponding adjustments.

First of all, the destroyer "Babur" was removed from the navy's account books. During this period, Colonel Rafsanjani, the former captain of the "Babur", who strongly opposed it, was dismissed. Lieutenant Colonel Carney immediately voted for the National Guard when he saw that the situation was wrong. Not only did he keep his military position, but he also became the trusted captain of the "Babur".

The second is to reorganize the naval brigade under the National Guard. In addition to the two "Guard"-class inland gunboats that performed well in the Battle of Shumai, the destroyer "Babur" will be removed from the Navy. It was included in it, along with two other "Kamen" class missile boats forcibly allocated from the navy.

The National Guard has a total of one destroyer, four missiles, river boats and other small auxiliary ships, with a total tonnage of more than 6000 tons.

With the capital ship and other supporting ships, it would not be appropriate to call the naval brigade under the National Guard a brigade again. Therefore, on the basis of the naval brigade, it was upgraded to the National Guard Maritime Operations Command, headed by Brigadier General Muhsin as Commander and Colonel Ismail as Chief of Staff.

Finally, and most importantly, is the training and preparation of personnel.

In fact, not only the Maritime Combat Command is preparing for the battle, but the entire National Guard, and even the whole of Bosnia is preparing for the battle. After all, it is a decisive battle related to the fate of the country, and Bosnia is almost overwhelming.

During this period, the project team sent by Zhujiang Factory to Bosnia was also busy. In addition to refitting and upgrading the destroyer "Babur" for the Bosnian Maritime Operations Command, it also assumed the last tank strategic reserve team in Bosnia. , 208 smoothbore gun replacements for M48 and 186 M60 tanks.

In this way, from the end of March to the beginning of June, the Zhujiang plant project team worked hard for more than two months, and finally completed the refitting and improvement required by Bosnia.

And the whole of Bosnia also completed preparations and assembly during this period, and the Fao front line, which was divided into two by the Shatt al-Arab, was once again clouded by battle clouds...

……

On the ocean surface 62 nautical miles south of Jishilei in southern Mesopotamia, the bright moonlight is reflected on the sea surface, which makes the floating waves on the sea surface have a mysterious and romantic atmosphere.

Cooperating with the airflow going south from the two river basins, the sea breeze seems to tell the glory and pride of ancient Babylon.

The flagship of the Mesopotamian Navy's mine fleet, the "Tigris" is cruising carefully on the calm sea. It seems that it has been ordered by the ancient Babylonian civilization. nautical mile.

It's not how brave the "Tigris" is, but the order from the Baghdad command made it have to do so.

But because of this, the "Tigris" was especially careful after nightfall.

At this time, Captain Hassan did not go to rest, but sat on the bridge all the time, observing his surroundings vigilantly.

"What did the radar find?"

Since the sky has completely darkened, visual navigation is no longer appropriate, and the ship can only rely on the navigation equipment and radar on board to maintain the cruising status, so Captain Hassan will ask every once in a while.

"Everything is fine, sir!"

The radar soldier in the corner immediately reported. Captain Hassan nodded slowly upon hearing this, then looked down at the chart in front of him, and drew a circle with a blue pencil in an area, which was the "Tigris" approaching ship. Four hour cruise of the area.

The reason why they are so careful is mainly for precise positioning, so that they will not lose their position during the upcoming mine deployment operation, so as to prevent their own ships from being recruited.

When everything was ready, Hassan straightened up and was about to order the ready mine-dropping team to start laying mines. Hearing the sound of "Boom~~~", the starboard side of the "Tigris" immediately burst into a dazzling flame!
