When Liu Yijiu heard Sihanouk say he would use special funds for the royal family, he immediately smiled.

The others were a little moved.

These things are not a good thing for them. The Khmer royal family's special funding is not too much, and it should be about 500 million or 600 million US dollars in total. This amount of money was what Liu Suxue suggested to Sihanouk to reserve.

This money will never be used until the entire country is in the life and death.

However, he did not expect that Sihanouk used the money to purchase weapons and equipment from Liu Yijiu at this time.

"If you have money, everything will be easy." Liu Yijiu said with a smile. He didn't care about anything else. Perhaps the entire Khmer power was looking for Sihanouk for this money. So what? If they want to fight with Chimian and drive out the three elite troops who still stayed in the Khmer, they must have heavy equipment.

"But we must see the performance of these weapons and equipment!" Sihanouk said with a painful face. Even at the most urgent moment, he did not use the money.

"Of course, all the equipment currently in service in our country, except for atomic bombs and strategic missiles, can do anything. Of course, I suggest that the focus is on our newly developed weapons and equipment. Although it is expensive, it is all worth the money..." Liu Yijiu said with a smile.

All weapons and equipment except the atomic bomb and strategic missiles that transport the atomic bomb can be sold, which has become his catchphrase.

"Xiao Liu, are you thinking about this? After all, our base is in the most secret place and is a top-secret military-industrial unit in the whole country..." Wang Shunyi grabbed Liu Yijiu. Why did this kid take people to their nests to see equipment at any time!

What if the secret leaks?

It has not been long since the last leak, and the bosses above have not completely dealt with it. Now they have asked Sihanouk to go to their unit. Isn’t this telling the Americans where their top secret base is located?

There is no problem with ordinary weapons and equipment. However, many of the contents in the top secret project of 619 must not be disclosed.

"No problem, there is a saying that it is dark under the light, and our Ninth Court is an external number. As long as we export weapons and equipment, foreign intelligence departments will definitely know. Longwei type 1 exports 200 vehicles to Pakistan. Do you think Americans will not have any ideas?" Liu Yijiu didn't think there was anything worth keeping confidential.

Instead of covering up the bell, it is better to go public.

The Ninth Institute of the People's Liberation Army. It is just a cover for Project 619.

Now, they no longer belong to the Fifth Ministry of Machinery, but are directly under the jurisdiction of the General Staff and Logistics Department of the Central Military Commission. In fact, this is the greatest convenience given to them by the above.

Sihanouk knows a little about China's weapons development. He obviously doesn't believe that Liu Yijiu and others can be more powerful than many other research institutions in China!

At that time, if you see the performance of the weapon, you will hit this guy again.

Some weapons and equipment produced in China that have lagging performance dare to speak out randomly.

The US m113 is priced at less than 200,000 US dollars. Liu Yijiu and the others actually quoted $334,000, and after the discount, they actually cost more than 240,000 US dollars.

The Type 63 armored personnel carrier only costs less than 120,000 US dollars!

"Don't you go to your R&D base? How do you get to the north?" Sihanouk did not expect at all. Liu Yijiu and the others took them into the Gobi Desert in the northwest.

China has some super key projects in the Gobi Desert.

"First ask the prince to visit the new tank and new armored vehicle we are testing." Liu Yijiu said with a smile.

There are no large aircraft in China, and the Y-10 prototype has not yet begun its first flight. Most domestic passenger aircraft are still small Trident aircraft imported from the UK. This kind of aircraft is not too difficult to go directly from a city in the Republic to another city. After all, many leaders of the Republic take these planes most of the time.

The plane taken off in Rongcheng flew directly to the northwest Gobi Desert, which is not only the distance from the northwest Gobi Desert, but the temperature has begun to drop. After the test in the northwest, it began to prepare to go to the tank test site in the Far East for low-temperature environment testing.

Sihanouk is no stranger to Western Xinjiang.

When I was in exile in China, I had been to most parts of China.

"Your country's first generation of armored vehicles were tested in the test site here, right?" The 212 Jeep was driving very bumpy on this Gobi Desert without roads, and the speed was not very high.

In the vast Gobi Desert, except for the occasional poplar trees, there are basically only stones.

Of course, there are certain desert plants with strong vitality that are indispensable in the cracks of the stone.

Before we could see the building, the people on the jeep heard the roar of the engine coming from a distance.

Hearing this sound, Sihanouk's eyes suddenly lit up.

He didn't know how to use weapons and equipment, but he didn't expect that the roar of the engine sounded again in the armored vehicle test site in China, which had been parked for many years.

Perhaps, you may be able to get any surprises.

When the jeep saw the building, it was stopped by several soldiers wearing new 77 automatic rifles and wearing yellow-brown camouflage uniforms that were different from the Chinese People's Liberation Army.

After Liu Yijiu and others showed their ID, the two soldiers saluted them, then got on both sides of the leading jeep and led the convoy toward the front.

"Why are the defenses so strict?" Sihanouk came here. The Gobi Desert was deserted. When China first established this test site, for safety, it built the test site deep in the Gobi Desert.

Except in the sky, from the ground, if you don’t know the way and don’t have a guide, it will be difficult to get here and then go out.

"Because it is not just a test site for armored vehicles!" Liu Yijiu naturally would not tell Sihanouk that they also had a special forces desert combat training site here, which were all newly built, mainly to train special forces to fight under desert terrain.

The Gobi Desert is close to the Taklamakan Desert, which is on the periphery.

"Liu, you are finally here. Our guests are very interested in our weapons and equipment! They hope we can provide tanks as soon as possible!" Before Liu Yijiu and his men got off the car, a dark-skinned and bearded Central Asian rushed to Liu Yijiu excitedly.

This guy is the pressure Hakka, the Pakistani military representative to China.

"Isn't this the test not completed yet?" Liu Yijiu's mouth twitched, and a big order came.

Previously, Pakistanis told them that some guests were very interested in their Longwei tank and hoped to visit the production factory.

Liu Yijiu did not take it seriously. After all, the Dragon Guard type was a tank jointly developed with Pakistan, and Pakistan has the right to sell the weapons and equipment they jointly developed to other sovereign countries.

The 541, the production base, is currently undergoing technological upgrades and transformations in this area, and their own production capacity is extremely low. The Chinese military ordered 110 vehicles, which must be delivered before 1981.

The production pressure is very high.

After all, this is not the 59 tank that has been produced in China for many years, and some key components need to be produced by the Ninth Academy!

Therefore, Liu Yijiu could not accept the larger orders in a short time.

He did not ask who the customer was, and directly asked the Pakistanis to take the customer's inspection team to their performance testing base for a visit. It was to let the Americans know the various detailed parameters of their Longwei type tank. Liu Yijiu didn't care. The real tank was the heavy tank they were developing!

"They felt that our tank was much stronger than the Soviet T72's maneuverability and firepower, especially during the test, which was very low in performance, and much stronger than the tanks they were in service..." Ziahak said very excitedly.

Once this arms sales are reached, Pakistan's funds invested in this will be able to recover a considerable portion of the funds.

At the same time, they also hope to obtain some production orders to reduce costs in this area and increase workers' proficiency.

"Arab people?" Before Liu Yijiu could say anything, he saw a group of bearded men shrouded in white robes and white turbans appearing next to him.

Is this an Iraqi?

Is it doubtful that Iranians who just overthrew the Pahlavi dynasty?

However, this dress is the iconic dress of the Arabs.

Anyway, Liu Yijiu is a little confused about the dress of these Islamic people in the entire Middle East.

"What's going on?" Wang Shunyi and Liu Suxue all turned gloomy when they saw people dressed like this.

This is the tank they are testing!

"The fat sheep who sent the money!" Liu Yijiu replied with a wry smile.

"Director Liu, the Iranians hope to negotiate with us as soon as possible. They hope to obtain the new tank we are testing as soon as possible. Moreover, it is a full-type Longwei tank equipped with anti-tank missiles and air defense missiles behind it..." Ziahak did not notice Sihanouk next to him at all.

English is their main language for communication, and Sihanouk also hears it very clearly.

"Zia, didn't you tell them that even if they placed an order, they would not be able to get the tank in a short time?" Liu Yijiu became big.

He knew the plight of these Iranians very clearly.

When Khomeini came to power, the Americans naturally had no support for Iran. The Soviet Union has always supported Iraq. In order to promote the Islamic fundamentalist movement led by itself to the entire Middle East, Khomeini called on the Iraqi people to overthrow Saddam's regime and turn the Iraqi regime controlled by the Sunnis into a government-to-people-political and religious regime controlled by Shiites.
