I, the super rich crown prince, will build the richest country

Back to Xinhan.

That evening, Xiao Yunhai reported his gains from the trip to Longguo to his father.

I learned that a new model of Longguo's 071 landing ship only cost 130 million US dollars.

Xiao Hongjing exclaimed in disbelief.

"Isn't this price too cheap?"

"Will Longguo sell it to us at a loss?"

Xiao Yunhai's mouth twitched, and he said unhappily: "Dad, you think too much. How could they sell it to us at a loss? It should be said that they didn't make much money. I don't think that our relationship with Longguo is so good that they didn't give it to us at a loss."

"But, a landing ship of more than 20,000 tons sold for 130 million US dollars, don't you think it's cheap? I seem to remember that the US landing ship costs 1 billion US dollars."

Xiao Hongjing still found it a little unbelievable.

The price difference is almost 10 times.

Xiao Yunhai patiently explained: "That's different. The Americans are pitting themselves. Have you ever seen a kettle that costs 2,000 US dollars?"

"Well, you did a good job this time."

Hearing his son's words, he was no longer shocked and smiled: "It can make Longguo willing to sell the latest landing ships, submarines, and missile boats."

"With these weapons, the pressure on the navy can be reduced a lot."

Xiao Yunhai shook his head.

"Why, am I wrong?"

Seeing his son shaking his head, Xiao Hongjing looked puzzled.

"We have warships, but it will take some time to form combat effectiveness. But in general, these warships can also make the Philippines and Java more cautious."

"In addition, Dad, I think it is necessary to expand the navy and the army. The current number of combatants in the navy and the army is not enough to cope with the increasingly heated regional situation."

Xiao Hongjing nodded: "Well, you are right, it is necessary to expand the army.

Let alone other things, just the large number of warships purchased here also need people to use them."

After a pause, Xiao Hongjing looked at Xiao Yunhai with a smile: "Since you proposed to expand the army, tell me, how do you plan to expand the army?"

Xiao Yunhai heard this and didn't say anything politely.

Said his thoughts: "The navy currently has 10,000 people, and it should be expanded by another 10,000, which should be able to meet our current needs."

"The pressure on the army mainly comes from Java and Malaysia."

"The army currently has 55,000 people (excluding the Royal Guards) and 9 brigades. If it is expanded by 20,000 people and formed into 4 rapid response brigades, it should be enough."

It is said that the focus is on protecting Malaysia, but in fact, the real enemy of the army is still Java.

The military strength of New Han is not far behind Malaysia, but Malaysia is on the Malay Peninsula and has a territorial dispute with Siam over the three southern prefectures, and Malaysia has to guard against Java, so the real threat to New Han is very limited.

Java is different. Relying on its large population and large size, it has more than 300,000 standing troops.

The army alone has 280,000.

The number of troops that can be mobilized is as high as millions.

This is far beyond the reach of New China, which has a population of only more than 17 million.

In addition, Java is ambitious and has always wanted to build a greater Java country and become the hegemon of Southeast Asia.

Therefore, Java is still the most threatening.

Expand 20,000 people for mobile forces.

In this way, whether there is any unusual movement in Java, or in the Philippines and Malaysia, reinforcements can be quickly provided.

"Rapid reaction force? What does that mean? A mechanized armored unit?"

Xiao Yunhai explained: "It should be said that it is an upgraded version of the light armored division, which can quickly deliver personnel and equipment to the front line with transport planes and transport helicopters."

Hearing that transport planes and transport helicopters were needed, Xiao Hongjing frowned and said: "According to your idea, I'm afraid it will cost a huge amount of money."

"Dad, don't worry about the problem of weapons and equipment. The most urgent thing is to recruit soldiers first and set up the organization and personnel structure. As for equipment, it is easier to solve."

Seeing that his son said this, what else can Xiao Hongjing say?

"Just do as you said. This time, the army will be expanded by 20,000 and the navy will be expanded by 10,000."

"By the way, does the air force need to be expanded?"

Xiao Yunhai shook his head: "Dad, the air force is a technical branch. It is not easy to train a qualified fighter pilot in a short time. Let me handle the air force."

Hearing this, Xiao Hongjing nodded and smiled: "Speaking of the air force, I heard that you set up an aircraft manufacturing company?"

"What? You plan to build fighters?"

"I have this idea."

Xiao Yunhai nodded in agreement : "I thought, we in Xinhan can't always buy from abroad, we must have our own military industry system, so that when a war really breaks out in the future, we don't have to worry about not having weapons."

"That's right, even if you want to do military industry, you can start with simple things first, there's no need to waste money on fighter jets."

"It's not that easy to make a fighter jet. There are only a few countries in the world that can produce fighter jets."

"Besides, we in Xinhan had no experience before, and it's almost impossible to make our own fighter jets."

Xiao Hongjing shook his head and was not optimistic about making fighter jets by himself.

In his opinion, fighter jet research and development is a weapon that can only be developed by big countries.

And Xinhan is just a small country.

How can it develop fighter jets without any experience.

In this regard, Xiao Yunhai revealed some information to make his father happy and get his father's support at the same time, after all, it will be equipped on a large scale in the future.

"Dad, actually, my aircraft manufacturing company has made some breakthroughs in some aspects."

"Breakthrough? What breakthrough? Did you develop an aircraft engine?"

"That's not the case."

"I told you, building an airplane is not that easy."

Xiao Hongjing chuckled.

"Although we haven't built an aircraft engine, we have developed an air-to-air missile.It has been developed, and several models have been iterated. "Xiao Yunhai said lightly.

"What?" Xiao Hongjing widened his eyes, stuttered, and looked incredible: "You...you said that your company has developed an air-to-air missile?"

"Yeah!"

"You didn't lie to me?"

Xiao Yunhai rolled his eyes unhappily: "Why would I lie to you!"

"Where are you going!"

Xiao Hongjing excitedly took his hand and walked out.

"Go? Where are we going?"

"Let's go to your company. Didn't you say that you have developed an air-to-air missile? Let's go and have a look." Xiao Hongjing said excitedly.

"Dad, what time is it now!" Xiao Yunhai didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "It's so late, what are you looking at in the dark? If you want to go, you should go tomorrow morning. ”

These words instantly woke up Xiao Hongjing, whose mind was full of air-to-air missiles.

Looking at the sky outside, yes, it was already past ten o'clock.

"Son, has your company really developed air-to-air missiles? Are you really not kidding me?"

Looking at his father's skeptical and unacceptable look, Xiao Yunhai was speechless.

"Dad, I've said it before, I'm really not lying to you, it's true."

"Not only has the air-to-air missile made a breakthrough, but the engine has also made a small breakthrough."

"What? The engine has also made a breakthrough?" Xiao Hongjing exclaimed.

"Well, we bought the Gripen fighter, and my people have conducted reverse research and development based on the Gripen fighter, and have made some progress so far. ”

Hearing that it was the reverse development of the engine of the Gripen fighter, Xiao Hongjing felt that it was not so difficult to accept, after all, Longguo had reverse developed many weapons.

Developing according to the target is much simpler than doing nothing.

“That’s already very good.”

“Where did you find this person? Did you poach Longguo’s aviation technology experts?” Xiao Hongjing joked.

Xiao Yunhai rolled his eyes: “Do you think it’s possible?”

Of course Xiao Hongjing knew it was impossible.

Experts in the aviation field are the treasures of a country. How can they be poached easily?

It’s not the time for Su Xiong to disintegrate.

“Then where did you get the technical experts for your R&D team? "Xiao Hongjing was a little curious.

Where did you get it?

Of course I got it from the system's golden finger.

Of course I can't say this. (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

If I really say it, I might be regarded as a psychopath.

Sitting down on the sofa, raising his hand to pick up a piece of orange next to him, Xiao Yunhai peeled the edge and said: "Dad, don't ask this, you just need to know that these people will be our Xinhan's treasures in the future."

"Okay, don't say it."

Seeing that his son was unwilling to say it, Xiao Hongjing didn't force it.

Also sat on the sofa and warned Xiao Yunhai: "Son, you have to keep an eye on these people. This is ourOur Xinhan’s treasure, if we can really develop our own fighter jet, you will have done a great service to our Xinhan.”[]

When he said the last part, his face could no longer hide the joy in his heart.

“Dad, don’t worry, I know what’s going on. ”

Xiao Yunhai responded casually.

“Come, tell me about the development progress of your aircraft manufacturing company...”

Xiao Hongjing couldn't hold back his curiosity and was eager to know the progress of the aircraft manufacturing company.

It's no wonder he did this. If he really developed a fighter jet.

No.

Even if he independently developed an engine.

Then Xinhan can stand up straight and say that it is a strong country in the aviation industry.

After all, the number of countries in the world that can develop aircraft engines can be counted on one hand.

How could Xiao Yunhai accompany him to say so much? After all, he himself didn't know. He bluffed a few words, found an excuse, and slipped away.

Of course.

The next morning, he He was woken up by his father.

He had to take him to see the aircraft manufacturing company.

No choice, who called him his father.

He took a car to the Military Research Institute.

Took his father to visit.

Hearing is false, seeing is believing. When he saw the mechanical swing arm and hundreds of technical workers busy in the workshop, especially when he saw something like an aircraft engine, Xiao Hongjing was completely convinced that his son's aircraft manufacturing company could really build aircraft engines and even fighter jets.

At this moment, he could no longer express his inner joy in words.

After visiting the Military Research Institute for a full half day, Xiao Yunhai sent his satisfied father away.

A week later.

That is, 4 On the 19th.

The Dragon Kingdom sent someone.

To discuss military trade.

Someone from Hudong Shipyard also came. It was none other than Fang Jianhua.

(Non-technical personnel, generally senior technical engineers, will not be allowed to go abroad easily.)

Conference room.

"Your Highness, we meet again."

"Director Fang, welcome to Xinhan."

Xiao Yunhai extended his hand and shook hands with a smile.

After some politeness,

Fang Jianhua took out a design drawing.

"Your Highness, this is a new type of destroyer designed by our shipyard according to your country's needs. Please take a look."

"The vertical launch unit adopts the layout of 32 in the front and 32 in the middle."

"A 76mm naval gun and two 6-tube anti-submarine rocket launchers are installed at the bow. ”

“In addition to the vertical launch, there is a close-in rapid-fire gun on each side of the ship in the middle area, and torpedoes can be launched after the hatches on the left and right sides are opened. ”

“In addition, a 24-yuan short-range ship-to-air missile and a jamming bomb launcher are installed in the tail area, and two helicopters can be parked at the tail. ”

"In terms of radar..."

Looking at the design in front of him, Xiao Yunhai felt that it was very similar to the Zero 52D missile destroyer he had seen in his previous life, but with stronger firepower.

"Not bad, the displacement should be about 5,000 to 6,000 tons, right?"

"Not bad, the full load displacement has actually reached nearly 7,000 tons."

"Not bad, but the 76mm naval gun is a bit too weak, and the helicopter parking area at the rear is a bit short. It should be lengthened to park a large helicopter."

Hearing this, Fang Jianhua said: "If Your Highness feels that the 76mm naval gun is a bit weak, you can replace it with a 100mm naval gun, and the rear deck can also be lengthened."

"Well, if it is improved according to the requirements I just mentioned, how much does it cost per ship?"

Xiao Yunhai closed the drawing and asked about the price directly.

"Wait a moment."

Fang Jianhua led the team to recalculate the cost of the modification. The modification was not big, just replacing the price of the ship's gun and lengthening the tail, so the price came out soon. "

"Your Highness, the price of each ship is 680 million US dollars according to your needs."

(The price in 2010 is definitely not comparable to the price after 2019 and 2020.)

"Including ammunition, training support, and spare parts supply?"

"Yes, it is included."

Looking at the weapon parameters on the drawing again, Xiao Yunhai felt that it was almost the same. Although the weapon was a weakened model for foreign trade, it was not much different. Take the anti-ship cruise missile, which is equipped with the YJ18 foreign trade model, with a range of 290 kilometers, which fully meets the needs of Xinhan.

"There is no problem with the price."

"But I hope to introduce a production line. ”

“We plan to purchase 10 ships. The first 6 will be produced in your country, and the last 4, I hope, can be produced here in Xinhan.”

“The same is true for dock landing ships. The last 4 will be produced in Xinhan.”

Xiao Yunhai closed the document and said to Fang Jianhua and other representatives of Longguo with a serious face.

Hearing that 4 were to be purchased.

Fang Jianhua and others took a breath of cold air.

They expected that it would be good for Xinhan to purchase 4.

Unexpectedly, the other party actually wanted 10.

One ship costs 680 million US dollars.

10 ships means 6.8 billion US dollars.

Counting the 10 landing ships, 10 missile boats, 4 submarines, the total order has reached 104 US dollars.

Does the new Han have so much military expenditure every year?

The military expenditure is not that much.

But Xiao Yunhai is rich.

He runs a pharmaceutical company.

He can make a net profit of 20 to 30 billion US dollars every year.

There is also oil income.

In a word, the government has no money, but the royal family has money.

Coincidentally, the royal family is willing to spend money for the country and forge a sharp sword for the country.

(Ps: ten).
