: Emperor Pu’s joy and worry

And this time the Qin State destroyed the Kingdom of Siam, why should they disarm Siam? Then another batch of weapons and ammunition will need to be scrapped. It is better to sell them directly to the Russian Empire at a discount. Anyway, shoot out the artillery shells and so on. As long as it can kill the enemy.

After all, it is a medium-sized country with more than 300,000 standing troops, and its ammunition reserves should support the consumption of a large-scale battle.

“How’s the arms deal negotiated between the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the State of Qin going?” Emperor Pu looked at the live report while looking at the military general logistics minister next to him.

Originally, the Ministry of Commerce should be responsible for following up on this procurement matter, but because the Qin State was newly established, the Russian Empire only had some diplomats in the Qin State and had not yet dispatched personnel from the Ministry of Commerce, so only the diplomatic attaché stationed in the Qin State could come. Responsible.

Olki, then the General Logistics Minister of the Tsarist Russian Empire, replied: “After several rounds of negotiations, we have reached an agreement on the price of the Su-47 Black Hawk fighter jets at US$165 million each. The price of these thirty-six Su-47s The total transaction price is about US$6 billion, and the other party said that it can trade raw materials and oil, natural gas and other products-”

“And some other arms trades require our professional team to arrive in Qin before we can negotiate based on the performance of the other party’s products.” Orki said unhurriedly.

After all, it is purchasing war machines and consumables. Many things require a professional procurement team of military officers to evaluate them. The reason why the Su-47 Black Hawk fighter is purchased directly is because this fighter has passed the test of war, whether it is the Myanmar Civil War In the war against Siam, Su-47 Black Hawk fighter jets were used in actual combat.

Even in the attack announced by the State of Qin on the Eagle State’s military base in Siam, the Su-47 played a key role, even suppressing the F-35 fighter jets of the Eagle State that took off during the entire process, forcing the opponent to land at the Qin State’s airport. .

Although Yingguo did not talk about this matter at all, it did not prevent other countries from obtaining some information from Qin.

After hearing what the Logistics Minister said, Emperor Pu frowned slightly and shifted his gaze to the video, wondering what he was thinking.

Upon seeing this, Orki said to Emperor Pu: “In fact, even if Qin does not sell other equipment and ammunition, even if it only sells some Su-47 Black Hawk fighters to us, it will be enough to have a huge change in the battlefield, and even to the entire NATO The group gained a certain advantage in the air battle.”

Since Eagle Country’s fifth-generation fighter jets entered service, they have been deployed in military bases in various NATO member states, forming absolute air superiority over the Russian Empire.

In the confrontation with the NATO military group, the Tsarist Empire has been suppressed for many, many years because of its backward air force equipment.

The fifth-generation stealth fighter has always been a pain for the Tsarist Empire. The Su-47 fighter jet from the former Soviet Union has never been able to solve the vibration problem caused by the forward-swept wing during flight due to material problems. Even if one was tested, it could not be mass-produced.

Although the Su-57 fighter jets are also in service and have increased production, due to the overall economic decline of the Tsarist Empire and the industrial system becoming incomplete due to disintegration, it is difficult to manufacture such high-tech equipment.

Over the past few years, the Dragon Kingdom’s Jian-20 has been in service and has produced more than 200 aircraft. The annual output of the Tsarist Russian Empire’s SU-57 fighter jets is only single digits, and now only four are in use.

This resulted in the Russian Empire never investing in Su-57 fighter jets during the war between the Russian Empire and the Cossack Republic.

Although the Imperial Russian Air Force had an advantage over the Cossack Air Force in the early stages, as the Western countries, led by Eagle Country, continued to inject blood into the Cossack Republic and purchased decommissioned or mothballed Soviet-made fighter jets from various countries to assist the Cossacks, the Imperial Russian Empire was never able to fully control the battlefield. Air superiority.

It was not until last week that the media discovered that the number of shotdowns announced by the Russian Empire reached more than a dozen fighter planes in two days. In the past, the results were close to two weeks!

The Cossacks have not announced the results of the Air Force for a long time.

Therefore, some media speculated that the Tsarist Empire may have invested the fifth-generation stealth fighter Su-57 fighter jets into the Cossack battlefield, suppressing the Cossack Air Force.

“I’m not worried about this.” Emperor Pu held his chin and shook his head, saying: “What I’m worried about is how many resources and industrial products we need to spend to pay off this transaction worth six billion US dollars. If There are more transactions and how much it costs.”

The foreign exchange reserves of the Tsarist Empire have always been small. If they can be exchanged through resource trade, it is better to use them for exchange.

At present, the traditional export commodities of the Tsarist Empire mainly include grain, timber, mineral deposits, arms, oil and natural gas.

The Qin State itself is a major grain-producing country, but there was a temporary shortage of food due to the civil war. However, with the end of the civil war, the Qin State imported some grain from the Dragon State to stabilize the price of food. Now that it has recovered, there is no shortage of food.

What’s more, if Siam is defeated, whether Qin supports the puppet government or directly annexes Siam, it will gain hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of productive land in the Siam Plain, and there will be no shortage of food.

….. .. …

Southeast Asia is also a timber exporting country with dense virgin forests, and there is no shortage of timber.

So what resources does Qin need from the Russian Empire?

The answer is rare mineral resources and oil and natural gas resources.

Yes, it is not an ordinary ore resource.

Before the war, the State of Qin announced the discovery of a very large iron ore in the Jingdong area, with preliminary estimates of reserves exceeding 2.5 billion tons, and they were all high-grade iron ore.

Some time ago, Qin State announced the discovery of a super-large coal mine with reserves of more than 3.5 billion tons in the Taunggyi area, and most of it is high-quality coal.

This means that Qin will not be short of iron ore and coal mines for at least the next hundred years.

Therefore, what the Tsarist Empire could export to Qin was oil resources, natural gas resources, and some rare iron ores.

After all, when they thought about it, Qin’s territory was just that big and it didn’t have many rare mineral resources. However, the Russian Empire was vast and owned most of the rare minerals in the world. This was one of their trading confidences.

The black technology possessed by the Qin State is beyond the imagination of outsiders.

The exploration and collection of underground resources far exceeds that of all countries in this era.

Wang Yao chose to trade with the Tsarist Russian Empire, and more importantly, he used the Tsarist Russian Empire’s war in the Cossack region of Eastern Europe to hold back the Western countries headed by the Eagle Kingdom, and continued to bleed them! Dry.
