Chapter 395 Not for sale! But it can be changed
The country that is in darkness is John Bull.
The two John Bull men looked at the intelligence sent back from Lao Maozi's house. One looked relaxed and the other looked worried.
“Dear Minister, when the lease period comes, can we still keep Hong Kong Island? I think the situation is getting more and more heading in the direction we don’t want.”
“No. , Sir, we must keep Hong Kong Island. At least two of them were ceded to us. The jewels in the Queen’s crown are becoming fewer and fewer.”
Of the three major blocks of Hong Kong Island, in fact, except for the one near the SAR which is leased, the other two blocks were all ceded to the prodigal son back then.
But he is obviously overthinking. Maintaining the status quo of Hong Kong Island for the time being is a move by our leaders. Taking back Hong Kong Island by then is also the goal we must achieve. They are trying to block the cart with their hands and are wishful thinking.
Moreover, in addition to taking back the leased part, we also took back all the ceded part.
“Dear minister, I don’t think it’s worth your time to worry about something like this that has already been decided for a long time. You should grab more benefits while it’s still in your hands and give them more benefits. Leave enough trouble and wait for that day to come. The path of Hong Kong Island was decided 11 years ago. "
This Jazz is also a sensible person.
The countries that stand out include even Gallic Chicken, a member of the Ocean Convention.
"It seems that our former emperor was right, the lion has really begun to wake up."
Listening to his superior saying this, Mr. Senna was very disapproving in his heart. Sir, have you just woken up? They told the world 10 years ago that they were awake and gave everyone in this camp a fatal blow.
This is also the reason why the Citigroup's ground forces in Indochina later did not dare to cross the 17th parallel. In that country to the east, don't worry about whether it is poor or not. Just ask you whether it hurts to hit someone. .
But these words can only be thought about in my heart. Senna said humbly to this man: "Yes, my sir, they used to have courage, will and wisdom, but now it seems that they have begun to pay attention to science and Knowledge starts.”
The Gallic Chicken speaks with a relaxed yet elegant tone.
The person who can make Senna call him "my sir" must not be an ordinary person.
"I heard that you have appreciated the crystallization of their knowledge and wisdom?"
Senna was quite proud of this.
“Yes, their electronic computers are very unique, and my timely exchanges with them on the scientific and technological achievements of 'laser' also gave our scientists a good understanding of this field. Start.”
Regarding lasers, when it comes to traps, we are first, Lao Maozi is second, and Gallic Chicken is third.
The man said: "Then, I think you can also communicate with them in time on this new anti-ship weapon, right, Mr. Senna."
Gaul Chicken's The Flying Fish, which will be so brilliant in the future, has no trace yet. Even its predecessor, the AS.34 "Cormorant", a collaboration between Gallic Chicken and Hans Cat, was only two years away.
Although Zhengxian No. 1, Cormorant and Feiyu took completely different paths, this did not affect Gaul Chicken's great interest in Zhengxian No. 1, which had achieved the world's first battle.
The country in the east is very special to the current Gallic Chicken. This has also completely cut off the channels for relying on intelligence methods to solve problems, so we have to start from the official side.
Therefore, Senna, who has frequent contacts with Eastern countries and has good relations, naturally became a bridge.
"I will do my best, my sir." Senna agreed happily, but he was not optimistic about the result this time. He had seen intelligence that the anti-ship missile was imitated by the Maozi Kingdom in the north and wanted to come to the east. The Lions are not so bottomless.
But there is no need to say this to the man. Although there are no words for remonstrance and head iron in Gaulish, he still understands the difference between the two.
Somewhere in the capital, the foreign affairs department received more than one request to import Zhanxian-1 missiles, especially from the small ponds in the Red Sea and Persian Gulf.
Although some of these countries do not even have bilateral relations with this country, they still expressed strong intentions through channels such as Beifang and Bayang.
At this time, those people with a piece of cloth on their heads have not yet realized that they are the richest people in the world through the oil crisis, but they still carry out their tradition: they are not short of money.
As for many countries within the Economic Assistance Council, they are keeping a close eye on it. They have direct channels.
For weapons, the best advertisement is the performance.
Just like John Bull defeated the Weeping Country, but was disgraced by the only 5 flying fish they had, the flying fish became a best-selling item in the international arms market.
I don’t know what Lao Maozi thinks about this matter. Anyway, our comrades are in a dilemma.
Because at this time, our policy is "not to be an arms dealer" and our main goal is to support the resistance struggle around the world. You can give it to you, but there is no way to sell it to you. But if you give it away, many countries will not meet the conditions, and this I can’t afford to give away toys. Regarding this matter, the people in the foreign affairs department couldn't decide, so they had to report it to the superior. As for the foreign business department, they did not sell this thing. If the DJS-59 still has civilian functions, then there are specialized agencies in charge of things like missiles, but they don't exist yet at this time, or they can be said to be delivered but not sold.
This matter has been well discussed with the above.
Is there anyone who is forced to buy it? You said it was okay.
Finally, the conference held a small meeting and made the final decision.
Not for sale! But it can be replaced.
Gaul Chicken's request was rejected as expected by Senna. After all, selling the missiles imitated by Lao Maozi to Gallic Chicken was a bit outrageous in this era.
Economic Assistance Countries are better off. Although they have not joined the Economic Assistance Association, they can still exchange things through this platform.
Food, light industrial products, and heavy industrial products can all be exchanged. These days are not the future. We have everything. Even if they are not that good, they are almost passable. Now we lack everything but will.
Economic Assistance Association is originally a book-keeping transaction, which is similar to bartering.
As for whether we should consider Lao Maozi's ideas? Guess whether we have considered using imitations of AK-47, RPG-7, and MiG-19 to support foreign countries?
The remaining ones with a piece of cloth on their heads are actually beginning to awaken their self-awareness, and some countries with ideas have begun to want some of their own say.
In fact, the Cold War was more enjoyable for small countries, because both sides wanted to win over them.
In this environment, they discovered that they could have some say and play a role, and they were not even afraid of the threat of old imperialism. If you keep pushing me, I will join the other side. .
An example of this is the "Cod War" between Iceland and John Bull. Because Iceland defends the Baltic Sea and the Arctic Ocean, it just blackmailed Citigroup and forced John Bull to eat by pinching his nose. I suffered several boring losses.
Of course, there is a more famous saying that may better explain the essence of this, which has nothing to do with economics.
——“After we leave, they will build schools and hospitals for you, and raise your wages. This is not because of their conscience, nor because they have become good people, but because we are here. "
In short, as the two camps joined forces to dismantle the colonial system, many small countries gradually began to rise. They urgently needed more powerful weapons to protect themselves to a certain extent, or to use their own special abilities. Advantages.
For example, seize the Strait of Hormuz by the throat.
For them, what I mean here is that we will not sell them, but we can support you. At the same time, you can also support us, such as industrial blood and the like.
How vulgar is it to talk about business? Supporting each other is the way to communicate and cooperate.
In short, the matter was finally negotiated, but the goods could not be delivered for the time being, and they were not produced.
Lao Maozi noticed this problem very keenly.
Comrade Linochka found his comrade minister in a hurry.
“Comrade Minister, we have some bad news.”
"What's the problem again?" The minister didn't want to see Linochka recently, because every time he came, the topics he talked about were not so pleasant.
“About that anti-ship missile that comrades from the south have been using these days.”
“That? We don’t need that, my dear comrade Linochka. We have better ones, at least. It’s almost successful.”
Due to maritime strategy, Lao Maozi attaches great importance to anti-ship missiles. He has been developing many anti-ship missiles with explosive parameters for decades. Come, so for the brilliant No. 1, although its performance is much better than their own P-15, Lao Maozi is not interested.
In fact, even if they don’t have something better, they are not interested in it for the time being, and they can’t pull it off. For example, when the boss and the second kid fight after decades of dividing the family property, they can’t pull it off at first. It's shameless.
But for them, the good news is that they have begun to get used to the fact that the comrades in the south still have some good things ahead of them. Maybe in this time and space, they will be embarrassed earlier?
If that's the case, it can be regarded as another kind act by Gao Zhendong. At least they can save a few deaths.
We are still far away from those now. What Linochka wants to say has nothing to do with this, but that their business has been affected.
“Comrade Minister, many members of the Economic Assistance Council, except for those who provide free assistance, some other members have terminated their plans to purchase P-15 missile systems from us and instead purchased them from comrades from the south. Their new anti-ship missile.”
Suizong’s assistance was far less generous than that of Xunzong who later took advantage of the oil dividend, so at this time, the proportion of assistance was not as high as the proportion of sales. This is moderately bad news.
