Don't talk about martial arts, I'm a war contractor

Chapter 478: Massive Purchases, 3.34 Billion in Sales

He asked his subordinates to take the two to the guest room to rest, but Hartaf himself did not sleep.

He ordered a cup of strong tea and convened the staff to discuss whether there were any other weapons that the National Army urgently needed besides the previous equipment.

"Anti-aircraft vehicles. We need anti-aircraft vehicles. When we launch a full-scale offensive against Tripoli next year, the Turks will definitely have a new batch of TB-2s in place. Consumer-grade drones are becoming more and more common. We need a certain number of anti-aircraft vehicles. The number of Pantsir S1s is limited, and half of them have been destroyed. We need to buy the previous generation of Tunguskas to use with tanks and infantry fighting vehicles to achieve both offense and defense."

The poor performance of the grassroots does not mean that the middle and upper levels of the National Army are ignorant, not to mention that they have been learning while fighting in recent years and have summed up many lessons from past failures.

"Tunguska? Can't the Zionists support us?"

Hartaf took off his glasses, rubbed his eyes and asked his subordinates.

In the East, every family has its own problems; in the Middle East and even in northern Philippines, reciting the sutra correctly can be a matter of life and death.

An organization like the Muslim Brotherhood, which advocates the integration of politics and religion and wants to unify the entire Arab world and even the entire Muslim world, is too terrifying for the princes.

What is even more frightening is that they are not as extreme and short-sighted as ACE, so only a few big players believe that the other party is a terrorist organization, while other countries are more likely to wait and see.

Shat and Laoji tried various ways to ask Laomei to support the National Army and pressure Tuerqi. On the other hand, Alianyu, who provided money and equipment, was almost involved in the support himself. Naturally, he spared no effort in providing support.

The problem is that Russia has provided so much weapons and equipment to the Syrian Army. Now that it is supporting the National Army, it cannot just give them a batch of T-62Ms and send them away, right?
"I have consulted my old classmates. Russia's military budget is not abundant. They are willing to pay for us to buy them, but it is difficult for them to give them for free."

This major staff officer who had studied abroad in Russia saw it very clearly.

Northern Philippines is the Northern Philippines of Europe. Russia cannot intervene in Libya like it intervened in Syria, which is why all their personnel are from Germany.

Not only do they not have to lose money, they can also make some money. If they want weapons and equipment, they just have to pay them according to the fake targets.

If you want to get equipment without paying, it’s better to go to a dentist than to Nilos.

"You're right. We also paid for the S-300. The Tunguska also costs money. But if Firestar Defense has it, we can buy it directly from them."

Hartaf also figured out this logic and prepared to start from the middlemen who had spot goods.

“What’s the appropriate amount?”

"If you have enough money, you can buy two. If not, one will be enough."

The staff officer thought for a few seconds before answering.

The 30 main battle tanks and 50 infantry fighting vehicles purchased by the general will definitely have to be divided into double-digit armored assault teams for use.

It is definitely more sufficient to equip each team with one anti-aircraft vehicle than two teams with one. In other words, it is the Tunguska. It is simply not enough to replace the Pantsir S1.

Of course, Cheetah is also fine, and the mercenaries invited by the team can also solve the operational problems.

But the Cheetah has no missiles, or it only has portable air defense missiles like the Stinger. When facing the TB-2 later, the dual 35mm guns are still too powerless.

If they drop bombs directly from outside the defense zone, it would be impossible to defend against it without the new radar and Al-Haid ammunition. The tragic death of the homemade Avenger air defense system has proved this.

Therefore, Tunguska is the best choice only for the Libya battlefield.

"Then buy two sets first. Is there anything else you need to buy?"

Hartaf continued to ask.

In order to prepare for next year's final attack, he has to draw as many cards as possible now.

"We have also lost a lot of our Cayman mine-resistant ambush-protected vehicles and the JAIS N35 produced by the United Arab Emirates. We must replenish the number within six months and at least double the scale."

The attacking side always suffers more when facing landmines. No matter which country your multi-functional mine-proof vehicle comes from, it will be a consumable in a high-intensity battlefield.

"You hit the nail on the head. I talked to the CEO of the car manufacturer, Farhad, and he said that the engine for the 4×4 version is out of stock and the production capacity may not be able to keep up."

Hartaf slapped his forehead and remembered this.

The so-called self-research and self-production of A-Lian is actually just assembly on the shelf. The design and technology are purchased from the RG-35 of the Philippines, and the engine is supplied by Caterpillar.

If the supply from there is not timely, it will directly affect the production of the car factory, and the needs of the National Army cannot be met.

At this time, the only option is to buy a ready-made vehicle from another brand. So should I choose the original RG-35?

"No, no, no, we can't borrow any influence from Wei Fei, but if we buy CS/VP3..."

Having said that, Hartaf paused and had already made a decision in his mind.

"Just buy CS/VP3, buy 120 of them."

This type of vehicle can carry 12 people on board, and 120 vehicles can transport more than 1000 elite troops, which is also the guarantee for the National Army to safely break into Tripoli.

The pickup truck troops on the second line have to wait until they have finished charging before they can charge. If they accidentally run over a TM-62M, not to mention the pickup trucks, even the Hummers will take away both the people and the vehicles in one go. There is no other possibility.

However, a problem that could be considered but not solved arose again. The armored forces were escorted by the Tunguska, and these elite light infantry of the National Army could only fend for themselves.

In war, there are always sacrifices, either filling the line or charging into death.

The Magnesium Army cannot escape these two disasters when it is not fighting a security war, but military contractors that are small enough but elite enough can effectively avoid these two situations.

The problem is that the only PMC company that does this is Jihuo Defense. Even Gena, which relies on the Russian military system, cannot do this, let alone other peers who are just picking up scraps.

And if Xia Yu did not concentrate its resources on equipment and personnel, there would be absolutely no problem in increasing the number of formal employees to 1000. However, not only would the casualty figures be unsightly, but the company's profitability would not be as strong as it is now.

The museum project is definitely out of the question, but with enough manpower, the mining business can still proceed smoothly.

But what is the difference between Jihuo Defense and other PMC companies?
Nothing happened that night. The next morning, when Xia Yu and Lao Yefu were having the traditional Libya breakfast, Hartaf also came to the restaurant.

"Gentlemen, it appears that you all slept well last night."

Old Ha, with dark circles under his eyes, said with a smile.

"Yes, General. The temperature in Benghazi at night is very suitable at this time of year."

In fact, it's not just Libya, the Sahel region has been very comfortable in the past few months.

The soldiers also brought breakfast to Lao Ha, and the three of them ate and chatted, continuing the topic of last night.

Gena doesn't want junk. 6000% of the 3 million, or 1800 million US dollars, will be deposited into their company's account. As agreed before, the 4200 million of Jihuo Defense will be offset by various scrap equipment.

However, the transportation had to be done by Xia Yu himself. For large items such as the An-124, Il-76, and Il-78, the wings had to be removed and transported directly to Mari by land.

Parts like the Mi-24A and Pantsir S1 can be directly airlifted, especially after the other party added an order for 120 CS/VP3 mine-resistant ambush-protected vehicles. The National Army paid for this, and it was impossible for Alianyu to help deliver it, so Xia Yu had to come by himself.

安-124的货舱能塞下两排五列10辆CS/VP3，单车15吨正好压线150吨，只要12个架次就能全部交付。

There is no way, since the port of Benghazi is under the supervision of the United Nations. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be better to ship directly to the port by sea?
But now that the cabin is full, there is no need to return empty-handed, so Xia Yu will not suffer any loss.

As for whether the native chicken that even an aircraft carrier dares to intercept will fire an anti-aircraft missile into the sky of Benghazi, he can only say that the two red fighting falcons of the Fire Defense will accompany the An-124 to see which version of the F-16 has stronger combat effectiveness.

As for the T-80BV and S30 purchased by Alian, Xia Yu of course chose to deliver them by sea.

Just like the crabs from Yangcheng Lake, no matter where they come from, they taste this way after being washed in the pond.

"Oh, by the way, I almost forgot about the field air defense. Mr. Sherlock, we still need two Tunguska combined missile and artillery air defense systems. Do you have any?"

Finally, as if he suddenly remembered something, Hartaf quickly added.

Xia Yu was stunned after hearing this. No way, his two sets of Tunguskas haven’t even been warmed up yet and he’s already been targeted by others?

Come to think of it, this SAM-19 Gray Itachi is also from the Itachi generation.

Its actual combat performance was not very good back then, but after it was completely retired, it encountered reconnaissance and strike integrated vehicles and consumer-grade drones, and it has enjoyed a second spring. How could it not be a best-seller!
It seems that he really did not purchase enough goods. He bought the German Cheetahs at the beginning, but he did not know that the cash flow was not enough later, so he only bought two sets of Tunguska.

No, we need to get more goods later.

There is no need to make a special trip to Russia. They sold a lot of Tunguska tanks in the past, and many of them are outdated equipment and are about to be retired.

Wouldn't it be great if he could just replace and upgrade it?
He bought the second-hand goods and sold the new car at the same time, which was killing two birds with one stone. It just so happened that he had a goal.

"Of course, two sets for 4200 million, with two base numbers of missiles as a bonus."

Xia Yu quoted the price directly.

He bought it back for 2400 million, but that was the price for each vehicle which was only equipped with four missiles.

We overhauled the two systems from 144% to 1800% new, and added more missiles. The original price was increased by million, which, to be honest, is not expensive at all.

However, 30mm artillery shells are not included. This thing is not only produced by the United Nations, but also by many countries in the Warsaw Pact and those that used Soviet equipment. Judging from the number circulating in the arms market, it can be said that it is the M43 shell in the machine gun circle.

"Okay, 4200 million!"

Hartaf agreed to Xia Yu's offer.

There is no cheap anti-aircraft vehicle, especially one with a combined missile and artillery system. The 4200 million is not enough to buy three Pantsir S3s, but it can buy 1 Tunguskas and matching ammunition vehicles and maintenance and support vehicles.

Not to mention that it is in stock, Lao Ha is willing to buy it even if there is a premium, after all, he is not the one paying for it.

A-Lian, who actually paid for it, also felt that it was worth the purchase. They already regretted giving so many Pantsir S1s to the National Army. It would have been great if they could have exchanged them all for Tunguskas!
"Mr. Yevgeny, we still need Gena to assist us in operating this batch of SAM-19s."

Hartaf turned and said to Old Yev.

He did not discuss this deal with Xia Yu alone, because they could not handle the 12 Tunguskas on their own, and they had to use a ready-to-fight force like the PMC.

"General, please leave it to us. My people are all good fighters."

Old Yefu said confidently.

Half of the National Army's Pantsir S1 tanks were destroyed, but not a single Tunguska was lost. The different generations of weapons and equipment in the hands of different people could even lead to a reverse difference in results.

There is no way, the gap between people is bigger than that between people and dogs.

"Then I'm relieved. After we take over Tripoli, I'll invite you two to the celebration banquet."

At this moment, Hartaf seemed to have seen the scene of himself taking control of the capital and unifying the entire Libya.

Imagination is beautiful, but reality is cruel. The two PMC company bosses he relies on are not optimistic about his ambitions.

If the native chickens are angered, they will take action personally, but what about the national army?
There are more financial backers behind them, but at most they can only provide money and effort. No country can match the level of support provided by Tu'erqi.

Therefore, the National Army can gain an advantage in the early stage, but it will be garbage time in the later stage.

The reason why Concentrated Fire Defense did not enter the field and Gena did not put in any effort was also based on this reason.

"We hope this day will come soon. The people of Libya have waited too long for this belated peace."

Xia Yu still had to say the polite words, even though he didn't believe them.

But it was precisely because he had stayed in a war-torn environment for a long time that Boss Xia came to realize the value of peace.

However, he will not see the day when the National Army launches a full-scale offensive. After fulfilling the contracts with the European Union and the United Nations, Focus Defense will withdraw from this war-torn area.

Half a year later, only Old Yev would lead Gena to deeply intervene in this battle.

After lunch, the two said goodbye and boarded the Fisher back to Jufra Air Base.

Xia Yu made seven or eight phone calls in Chinese, English and French on the plane and finally achieved preliminary coordination for the arms sale to the UAE.

In the sales contract for second-hand equipment, two sets of Tunguska were sold for US$4200 million, and a young antelope and an old female deer were sold for US$3200 million.

There are also T-80BV, Weasel S30 and supporting ammunition and spare parts totaling 2.6 million, with a total turnover of 3.34 million US dollars.

This is not even a fraction of the UAE’s military budget this year, but it is enough to feed Xia Yu for half a year.

In the eyes of Old Yev and most of his peers, his net profit was around 6000 million US dollars, but the actual net profit was million more than this number.

Yes, earning 2.7 million in one transaction, this is the terrifying power of cheating players.

The contract for clearing out enriched uranium and weapons left over from battlefields appears to have a turnover of 10 billion, but the expenses for deploying personnel and equipment for half a year, investigating and handling confiscated items, together account for nearly 70%.

The net profit for half a year was only 3 million, which is actually not a lot. But while making this 3 million, Xia Yu also earned 2 million from the arms business.

With all kinds of income like spoils of war, it is not difficult for him to make a profit of 6 million in half a year.

Next, we will invest this money into Mary. It may be a bit exaggerated to earn 10 billion, but four or five billion will definitely not be a problem.

Therefore, next year will be a year of investment. The seeds sown in the desert will blossom and bear fruit within five years, giving Xiayu rich returns.
