Chapter 81 Going to Baghdad

Dongmin Lane

This is the famous embassy area in the capital.Since the period of the Republic of China and even the pre-Qing Dynasty, this place has always been a place where foreigners gather.

around seven o'clock in the evening

Nie Zhenbang has already arrived here. Less than 500 meters away from Dongmin Lane, there is a halal restaurant. This is a famous Islamic restaurant in the capital.Basically, people who believe in Islam like to eat here.

As soon as Nie Zhenbang entered, all the diners in the restaurant looked up.Here, very few non-Islamic people come in.Especially for a Han Chinese like Nie Zhenbang.

The waiter also came up to greet him, and said with a smile, "Sir, is it for a meal? Since you are here, please pay attention to your words, and please bear with me some Islamic taboos."

Nie Zhenbang also nodded and said: "No problem, I came here at the invitation of Mr. Abdullah. Excuse me, where is the box he reserved?"

When the waiter heard this sentence, his expression also became respectful. Abdullah Abraham Sumaida, this is a celebrity in the halal restaurant, and he is the Iraqi ambassador to China. Du La is considered a frequent visitor to halal restaurants, and it has been going on for a long time.The whole restaurant knew Abdullah.

At this time, when they heard Nie Zhenbang's words, the people who had looked at Nie Zhenbang curiously all looked away.

Under the guidance of the waiter, Nie Zhenbang went directly to the second floor and sat down in a box with a strong Islamic style.

About half an hour later, Abdullah appeared at the door of the box. As soon as he saw Nie Zhenbang, Abdullah smiled and said in broken Chinese: "Excuse me, are you Mr. Nie? Mr. Li told me that Nie Zhenbang Mister is a great figure in the capital, but he never expected to be so young."

Nie Zhenbang also stood up, stretched out his hand and said, "Mr. Abdullah, I'm very glad to meet you here. Mr. Li has won the prize. I'm not as powerful as he said. It's just that I have a little knowledge. "

Abdullah's dress looks very Muslim.He was dressed in a white robe with a white turban wrapped around his head.Both the beard and appearance highlight the typical style of Middle Easterners.

Hearing what Nie Zhenbang said, Abdullah also laughed, and after motioning Nie Zhenbang to sit down, after the waiter served all the dishes, Abdullah smiled and said: "Mr. Nie, according to the customs of Chinese people, You all like to talk about things at the wine table, can we have a good talk before eating? You are looking for me through Mr. Li, what's the matter?"

Although Abdullah is also Asian, he speaks very directly. He just sat down for less than 2 minutes, and he went straight to the point.

Nie Zhenbang also laughed at this moment, looked at Abdullah and said: "Dear Ambassador Abdullah. As far as I know, your motherland is currently at war with Iran, and the flames of war have already reached you. motherland, is that so?"

At this moment, Abdullah is not surprised at all. The Iran-Iraq war has lasted for almost 7 years.It's no secret at all.However, when talking about the war in Iraq, Abdullah also looked a little lonely.After a flash, Abdullah's face was full of confidence again: "Yes, Mr. Nie, the hateful Iranians, with the support of the Soviets, they invaded my motherland. However. I I believe that with the mediation of the United Nations and the support of the United States, our war will eventually be won."

"Of course, it is undeniable that at this time, because of the interests of the United States in the Middle East, they must support you. However, it seems that the United States does not dare to directly confront the huge Soviet Union. Your country is still in the flames of war. There is a saying in China that goes, if a man has no long-term concerns, he must have near-term worries..."

Before Nie Zhenbang finished speaking, Abdullah directly interrupted Nie Zhenbang's words.In later generations, there were so many terrorist attacks in the Middle East, including a certain uncle who became famous in the early 21st century.These people are all crazy religious fanatics. The psychology of these people is difficult for ordinary people to fathom.

Abdullah also had this tendency. Perhaps Nie Zhenbang's words stimulated him. Abdullah's expression was gloomy, and he tried to use a calm voice: "Mr. Nie, what do you want to say?"

Nie Zhenbang smiled and said: "Mr. Abdullah, please be safe. I don't have any other intentions. I am looking for you through Director Li this time. The purpose is very simple. I think your motherland must need weapons. The ak-47 assault rifles and individual rocket launchers produced by the original Soviet factory. These things, and even the SAM-type shoulder-launched missiles. Of course, if you need them, weapons like T72 or Katyusha are not impossible .”

At this moment, Abdullah also stood up. What is this Mr. Nie doing?Soviet people?Impossible, such a typical Chinese face.However, how could he get so many Soviet-style weapons.

T72, this thing is the main battle tank currently installed by the Soviet army.Moreover, when Director Li introduced him, he was also very mysterious and vague. He just said that someone wanted to contact Iraq about the arms.However, who is it.Nie Zhenbang's background was not mentioned.

After a moment of silence, Abdullah said with a solemn expression, "Mr. Nie, this is a very important matter. This is not something I can decide at once. Everything can only be discussed after I get back home and get a reply from the president."

Immediately, Abdullah stood up, turned around and walked out. Here, as a famous halal restaurant.Someone like Abdullah must have some special emergency phone number here.Otherwise, in case Abdullah is eating here.If there is something urgent, can the president wait for him?

After a while, Abdullah walked into the box again, looking much more relaxed.Looking at Nie Zhenbang, Abdullah immediately said: "Mr. Nie, just now, I have made contact with the country and directly talked with the President. What the President means. If this matter is true, there is absolutely no such thing in Iraq. Any questions. However, the President would like you to go to Baghdad yourself. Discuss the matter with him face to face. What do you think?"

In fact, it would be presumptuous for such a condition to be replaced by an ordinary arms dealer. After all, this is only the first trial and contact. It is a big risk to negotiate and trade with a country.

However, Nie Zhenbang was already ready to go to Iraq, because Nie Zhenbang knew very well that since the Iran-Iraq War, the relationship between Iraq and the United States has not been as close as before.On the contrary, later on, Iraq's military transactions with the Soviet Union became closer. Until a few years later, when the Gulf War broke out, Iraq and the United States completely came to the opposite side.Judging from these circumstances, at this moment, Saddam is also eager to get other military arms deals other than the United States.There is absolutely no danger in going there by yourself.

Thinking of this, Nie Zhenbang also nodded and said: "Of course, Mr. Abdullah, I am very honored to be able to go to Iraq. I believe that the cooperation between us will be very pleasant."

Abdullah also nodded. In terms of character, Abdullah is also a very straightforward person, and then Abdullah stood up and said: "Well, Mr. Nie, please send you and your entourage Give me your passports. I'll get you a visa right away. Three days later, there's a direct flight to Baghdad. I wish you the best of luck in advance."
