From Arms Dealer To King of War

  Chapter 861 Only together can we live in peace

  Joga is interested in Pierre's 'another proposal'!

  In order to satisfy the aviation dreams of Cobra and Archerfish, Boss Joe squeezed his nose and ate so many fighter jets.

  If it wasn’t for the upgrade of Boss Joe’s cheats, he would never be able to support these money-eating big guys.

  Let’s not talk about fighting, it’s hard work to just refuel without external support.

Now P·B not only has 3 C-130s, but also 4 F-16s, 2 Su-27s, 2 L-159s, 2 Su-25s, and 2 F-16s just shipped from the United States. 14 Panda fighters.

   It’s just that the pilots of the two Pandas still need to get used to it. Their combat radius is no worse than that of the Su-27.

  The geographical location of Central Africa, from an economic point of view, is too bad to see.

  But from P·B's point of view, this is an excellent nest location.

  Because no matter which direction the air force comes from, as long as it hangs a heavy bomb, unless it has the help of an air tanker, it will not be able to fly back here.

  The army is even worse. It has no air delivery capability, and it is impossible to quickly approach Central Africa, because there are not even reliable highways here.

  P·B's sphere of influence has blown up like a balloon. It would be a lie to say that the French are not nervous.

  But they can't help it, P·B's international image is too good.

   What's more important is that they didn't do anything out of the ordinary. Most of the tasks were packaged in the cloak of charity.

   Now they are not only backed by the United Nations, but also supported by more than half of the female boxers in the world.

   Even if French politicians don't care about the United Nations, they may not be able to withstand the bombardment of female fists. After all, politicians are decent people.

  With the current state of the French President, he will definitely not ask for trouble. He needs to pray to God and worship Buddha to step down safely.

   But even so, the so-called United Air Force must let the French join.

   Otherwise, as Pierre hinted, I may not be able to do anything about you, but I can definitely mess you up.

  In the end, the United Air Force was stillborn, and the more serious situation was that the surrounding Afika countries opposed the existence of P·B.

   This is not impossible, because fighter jets are too deadly for the Afika country, which is still in the guerrilla stage, especially for those careerists!

  However, it is definitely impossible for the French to continue to exert influence while wanting to prostitute themselves for nothing.

  But Choga also knew that the United Air Force couldn't get around the French, and he really wanted La France, a big head, to join the team.

   Regardless of how Boss Joe tricked the French in Syria, it will not prevent Boss Joe from living in France in Afikara, shielding himself from malicious eyes from the world.

   This is very critical!

  The French probably also saw this, so the offer they made was outrageous.

  Pierre had already expected Choga's attitude, so he decisively proposed another plan...

  Seeing Qiaojia’s willingness to hear more, Pierre said with a wry smile: “It’s still 50 million, P·B shared the airport with us, and we don’t use your fighter jets.

   But you need to be ready at any time to help the Rafale when we come from the Djibouti Air Force Base to refuel. "

  Joga sneered and said, "It costs 30,000 to 40,000 euros to refuel the Rafale, and it costs 100,000 euros for a round trip plus airport maintenance.

  If you stop here, maybe I will help maintain it.

   Do you know how hated you French people are in Central Africa?

  I let you use my airport, I will face huge pressure.

  Brother, you are a big country, and the countries here are afraid of you intervening in their internal affairs. You have a criminal record.

  50 million just want me to carry such a big pot, that is just a joke! "

   While talking, Choga looked at the helpless Pierre, and said with a smile: "But I have another way, do you want to listen?"

  Pierre spread his hands helplessly and said, "Do I have any other options?"

  Choga laughed and said: "Of course not, I would rather let the fighter jets rot than do stupid things that make the countries around Central Africa nervous.

  The significance of the United Air Force is to allow a group of neighboring countries in Central Africa who have no defense capabilities to rely on.

  It’s okay for the French to get involved. It’s still 50 million euros a year, and you have a place in the joint command.

  You joined in as shareholders of the Fighter Training Center, plus the joint command seat, it will be no problem if you want the United Air Force to cooperate with you to continue the Red Moon Dune project.

  I have roughly calculated the cost of combat use. The cost of flying an F-16 per hour is about 40,000 US dollars, plus operation maintenance fees, parts replacement, aviation fuel...

  Because I need to purchase parts and fuel from abroad, the price will be high, so the overall cost per hour is $100,000.

  This does not include the maintenance cost of the airport.

  Of course, the Su-27 will cost slightly less to operate, but the big guy consumes more fuel, so let's use $150,000 per hour.

  As long as you need it, and the people in the joint command center have no objections, then give us enough money to choose the right missile and we will set off..."

  Pierre is also considered an expert. After a little calculation, he found that if he needed it, he would need at least three working hours to buy a fighter jet each time.

   To be honest, 450,000 a trip is not expensive, but this does not include the price of missiles or aerial bombs...

  Even if the most conservative ammunition configuration is used, and the aircraft abandons air-to-air missiles and only uses ground-to-ground weapons, it will cost at least 1 million bases for one flight.

   If the battle is more intense and requires high-precision ammunition support, then the price will not be counted.

  Joga’s meaning is very clear, 50 million euros per year is just an admission ticket, and France has to send people to join the fighter training center to provide technical and manpower assistance before they can get a position in the United Air Force.

  In this case, whenever a vote is required, France will not have the upper hand.

  It is impossible for Pierre to agree to this kind of condition, so he looked at Choga and said seriously: "Jackal, you should understand our position, money is not a problem, but if you can't get some dominance..."

   Qiaojia waved his hands with a smile and said: "Brother, I think you should have expected this matter.

  My people actually lobbied not only the surrounding countries, but also the directors of the African Union.

  Afika has frequent wars, but the peacekeeping force of the African Union is very weak.

  The significance of the United Air Force is to provide a certain degree of shelter for those countries without national defense capabilities to prevent foreign invasion.

  Currently we have convinced Central Africa, Congo, Burundi, Chad, and Niger, and I will consider including Congo in the future.

   But apart from these countries, the African Union is the key, only they can label us legal.

   You want to seek dominance, that is impossible! "

   As he said that, Choga looked at Pierre, who looked a little unhappy, and said with a smile: "But you have spent money, and you should enjoy a veto just like the representatives of the African Union.

   Maybe you can't decide who to bomb, but you can decide who will definitely not be bombed.

   This is what you do at the National Bank of Afika. Do you think this condition is enough? "

  Pierre took a deep breath, then made a gesture to wait a moment, took out the satellite phone and walked into a room.

  The conditions proposed by Choga are almost close to the bottom line of the French...

  They need air power that is relatively cheap and does not require long-term expenditures to support the Red Moon Dune project.

  They need to intervene in the joint air force to regulate the relationship between some countries in West Africa and Central Africa by exerting their own influence.

   Tickets of 50 million a year are much cheaper than hundreds of millions of aid each year.

  How many fighters can Afika use as a fighter?

  Boss Qiao quoted a price of conscience, but how many companies in Afika have such a budget?

  In the end, it is nothing more than the ability of the African Union, France and P·B.

  The African Union only exists as a supervisor.

   As long as P·B can be won over, a veto is enough.

  Anyway, if you don’t cooperate with me, I will disgust you and make you unable to use your strength.

  The reason is the same, but Pierre still underestimated Choga's determination to normalize the use of the United Air Force.

  You France wants to fight terrorists, no problem, you and the country where the terrorists are located will submit reports and evidence to prove that those people deserve to die, and the fighter jets will only be dispatched after deliberation by the representatives of the African Union.

  In the future, when everything is standardized, even P·B itself is no exception.

  If you want to use fighter jets, you have to prove that the target is indeed worthy of death, or everyone agrees that the target is worthy of death.

   This is why Boss Joe didn't include the Griffin-1 and helicopters in the joint air force program.

   It's one thing to pull people to raise fighter jets, but it's stupid to give up the initiative.

  The United Air Force must put up an official sign, otherwise this unscrupulous force will eventually attract malicious attention from the outside world, and a private company like P·B cannot bear it at all.

  But it’s different with the African Union’s brand on it. The airfields are all mine. I contribute these, and the member states and the African Union will always have to contribute some real money.

   As for how to convict the target in the future, it depends on 'personal ability'!

  Let the 'judge' hit the hammer...

   Not difficult!

  Boss Joe stepped on the bottom line of France!

  It is an indisputable fact that their control over Afika is declining year by year. In the period when their power was at its peak, they would have used their international influence to smash P·B to the ground.

   Now, in order to maintain the anti-terrorism front at the least cost and maintain influence in Afika, the best option is to cooperate with P·B.

  P·B Bank is the Bank of France, and they still have the confidence to maintain a good relationship with Boss Joe.

   Nearly half an hour later, Pierre walked out of the room, looked at Choga with a strange expression, and said: "A month later, a team will go to the African Union headquarters to make suggestions and consultations on the joint air force.

   Jackal, you're ready, right? "

  Joga poured two glasses of whiskey again, handed one over, and said helplessly: "I've been preparing since those rich eaters fell into my hands.

   Dude, no one who is serious about making money will think that is a good thing!

  Letting them feed themselves is the best option for me! "

  Pierre took a sip of whiskey in admiration, and said: "But the airport and the plane are on your territory, and maintenance and supplies are all up to you...

  Jackal, you are a smart person, I think I seem to have been fooled, but I can’t tell where I suffered...

   Please, don't lie to me, let me get down to retirement. "

   Qiaojia laughed and said, "Don't worry, you have to trust my reputation and my friendship with my friends.

  I heard that you prefer yachts, and I asked someone to buy a beach house on the French island of Reunion.

  Believe me, we have cooperated for two years, and you can go and see those yachts over 40 feet. "

  Pierre listened, smirked, and said with a smile: "Reunion Island is a good place, I have always wanted to go fishing there!"
