Chapter 494 Equipment and People
The two exchanged business cards. Yang Dongsheng glanced at Li Rufeng's business card and put it in his pocket.

Accompanied by the maid, Zhou Ying and Liu Min went to check, while the family members of the two families were arranged to wait in the same lounge.

Li Rufeng stroked Yang Miao's head and asked some questions about his studies, as if he was very interested in this future son-in-law.

The inspection lasted half the morning.

Yang Dongsheng took Yang Miao and Yang Richu to watch the Hong Kong fireworks display, and went to Ocean Park to watch the dolphin show...

I have been playing in Hong Kong for many days, the company has started to work, Yang Miao and Yang Richu are about to start school, and Yang Dongsheng came to a hotel by appointment.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw James Whistler sitting on a chair, and the two of them were carefully searching every inch of space in the room.

One of the two is Freddy Krueger, and the other is tall and looks about 30 years old. He is not very strong, but he has a big frame and looks very burly. He is one of the five members of the 22nd Special Air Service Regiment. Jason Voorhees.

Yang Dongsheng sat down opposite James Whistler.

The two searched for a long time, and finally relaxed.

"Boss!" The two lowered their heads together, and Jason Voorhees looked at Yang Dongsheng, looking a little nervous.

"Sit down!" Yang Dongsheng waved at the two of them.

"MI[-], MI[-] are very powerful here, we have to be careful!" Freddy Krueger explained.

"..." Yang Dongsheng nodded.

Freddy Krueger took out the documents, first there was a list of equipment - BTR-60 wheeled armored personnel carrier, Mi-8 helicopter, Mi-17 helicopter...the price was marked on the back of the form.

At this time, the advantage of buying Soviet-style equipment is reflected, that is, it is cheap.

If they buy American-style equipment, the equipment itself is very expensive. Given the black heart of Americans, a UH-60 will cost at least 2000 million US dollars.

As for the quotation in Yang Dongsheng's hand, a Mi-17 that has only been out of the factory for three years is priced at 85 US dollars. The older Mi-8 is even cheaper, and a BTR-60 is only 8 US dollars.

除了直升机、装甲车，还有2A65式152毫米牵引榴弹炮、122毫米D-30炮、BMP-2步兵战车、米-24武装直升机、T-72坦克、BM-21自行火箭炮、С-200防空导弹、装甲爆破扫雷车……

These equipments that were originally prepared to submerge Western Europe and even land in North America are all useless now, and the prices are all surprisingly cheap.

For arms dealers, AK-47 and RPG are easy to use and require almost no maintenance. From Africa to South America, from warlords to drug dealers, they are rushing to get them.

But tanks, armored vehicles, and rocket launchers look majestic, and their power is not comparable to that of a rifle, but not many people buy them.

Artillery is a technical arm, and cannons are not as easy to learn as AK-47. What's more, these heavy equipment are very delicate. If they dare to use cannons like AK-47s, they will explode after not firing many rounds.

The final result is that in the warehouses of Russia and Ukraine, the torrent of steel that used to scare Western Europe can only lie in the warehouse and rust...

It’s not accurate to say that, most tanks don’t even have warehouses, so they can only be placed in the open air, and they will be scrapped after being exposed to the sun and rain!
Now someone wants to buy it, they can't wait for it!
Freddy Krueger wants to buy as many Mi-8s and Mi-17s as possible, at least fifty or more.

The Mi-8 and Mi-17 are actually the same aircraft, bigger than the Black Hawk, and can hold 30 fully armed soldiers, and can also hang a D-30 artillery for fast maneuvering.

In this way, even if they can't beat the French Foreign Legion in the future, they can run past them.

"What about fighter jets?" Yang Dongsheng asked.

Yang Dongsheng noticed that there were no fighter jets in the catalog.

Yang Dongsheng originally didn't plan to equip fighter jets, that thing is too conspicuous, but now they have the opportunity to control Liberia, a country that can provide the perfect cover for fighter jets.

The Foreign Legion can get the support of the French Air Force, although they can be equipped with anti-aircraft missiles, but air defense, air defense, ten defenses and nine air defenses!It is too passive to rely on anti-aircraft missiles to deal with aircraft.

"They have two suggestions about fighter jets. First, we can rent fighter jets from Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus. As long as they give enough money, these countries can provide a full range of services from fighter jets to pilots; second, they can get a batch of nearly completed ones. MiG-29, when the Soviet Union disintegrated, a batch of MiG-29 was sealed in the warehouse, the airframe has been basically completed, and the rest of the work can be done manually after being shipped to Liberia.”

"Of course the plane is our own! But it's done by hand... Go to some professionals and have a look at those MiG-29s!"

The MiG-29 is enough to fight against the Mirage-2000. Even if the Rafale enters service in the future, the MiG-29 will still have the power to fight, and after a few years, it may be possible to replace it with the Su-30.

The MiG-29 can take off directly from field airports. With Yang Dongsheng's ability to build field airports in many countries and prepare some fuel, the problem of the MiG-29's short legs is not a problem.

In addition, Freddy Krueger also wants to buy some Tatra trucks. In addition to transportation, he also wants to use these trucks to modify truck guns.

"What about personnel?" Yang Dongsheng asked.

Although it is no longer the era of cold weapons, people are still the most critical factor.

"We're now enrolling about 350 people!"

Freddy Krueger's plan is to recruit 2000 people, the French Foreign Legion has 8000 people, and the number of rebels in Liberia is rapidly expanding, so the number cannot be too small.

These 2000 people are not all infantry, but also pilots, ground support, artillery, tankers, engineers, logistics, transport teams, and medical personnel.

In addition, intelligence personnel are needed.

Freddy Krueger divides people into four grades: A, B, C, and D.

Level A only requires basic military literacy, which is a requirement for non-combatants such as cooks and doctors.

Level B requires the level of a qualified soldier.

C-level requirements to reach the level of special forces, such as Navy Seals, Green Berets.

Class D is to reach the level of the most elite special forces.

Yang Dongsheng took a look. At present, the number of B-level recruits is the largest, and nearly 200 people have been recruited.

There are also a lot of C-level troops. There are more than 80 people. The five members of the Special Air Service Regiment including Freddy Krueger are all at C-level. This ratio is much higher than that of ordinary troops. In Nanshan, a large number of excellent soldiers who are "not needed" are cut out.

There are only 2 D-class people, and the names seem to be Russians, and there is a note after the name-maroon beret.

Yang Dongsheng took a look, and there were also many people at C level who noted maroon berets.

Yang Dongsheng is a little strange, what kind of unit is the maroon beret? The level of the 22nd Special Air Service Regiment can only reach C-level, but they have produced so many C-level, or even D-level?
What's even more strange is that Freddy Krueger and the others only have a C grade. How did they determine the D grade?
