133: Chapter 133 Will there be no air raid?
After resting well, Li Yi decided to purchase all the weapons and equipment for Iran's new procurement order so that they could be delivered.
A significant number of Tianlei Series Anti-Aircraft Missiles had been purchased previously, but now he still needed to buy 1,500 missiles for the Tianlei Type II Anti-Aircraft Missile; 100 missiles for the Tianlei Type IV Anti-Aircraft Missile; 30 sets of the Tianlei Type VII Anti-Aircraft Missile, along with 50 missiles; and 30 sets of the Tianlei Type VIII Anti-Aircraft Missile, along with 50 missiles.
Li Yi selected the Tianlei Type II Anti-Aircraft Missile from the Multiverse Arms Trading System and placed an order for 1,500 supporting missiles, totaling 180 million yuan.
He placed an order for 100 missiles for the Tianlei Type IV Anti-Aircraft Missile, totaling 50 million yuan.
He placed an order for 30 sets of the Tianlei Type VII Anti-Aircraft Missile with 50 supporting missiles, totaling 165 million yuan.
He placed an order for 30 sets of the Tianlei Type VIII Anti-Aircraft Missile with 50 supporting missiles, totaling 216 million yuan.
Subsequently, Li Yi selected the Sky Dragon Mark I UAV from the Multiverse Arms Trading System and placed an order for 1,000 sets, plus 10,000 supporting air-to-ground missiles and 50,000 bombs, totaling 2 billion yuan.
He placed an order for 1,000 sets of the Tianjian Type I Anti-Tank Missile, plus 3,500 supporting missiles, totaling 255 million yuan.
He placed an order for 2,000 sets of the Tianjian Type II Anti-Tank Missile, plus 5,000 supporting missiles, totaling 640 million yuan.
He placed an order for 1,000 Fierce Rhino Type II Tanks and 2,000 Fierce Rhino Type III Tanks, along with 200,000 various types of shells, totaling 9.5 billion yuan.
He placed an order for 1,000 Fierce Tiger Type II Armored Vehicles and 4,000 Fierce Tiger Type III Armored Vehicles, along with 500,000 various types of shells, totaling 25.8 billion yuan.
He placed an order for 1,000 Fierce Lion Type II Artillery and 2,000 Fierce Lion Type III Artillery, along with 200,000 various types of shells, totaling 15.5 billion yuan.
He placed an order for 200 million rounds of machine gun ammunition for the armored vehicles, totaling 600 million yuan.
After this round of purchasing, the total cost for these anti-aircraft missiles, UAVs, anti-tank missiles, and armored vehicles came to 54.906 billion yuan, and the funds in the Multiverse Arms Trading System were left with only 20,860,736,494 yuan, which is about 20.8 billion yuan.
Li Yi set the usage range for the weapons and equipment purchased by Iran in batches, distinguishing between those to be delivered to Iran and those to the Glass House, and categorized them for future delivery.
A day later, Li Yi contacted Major General Zaha directly from the presidential suite of the Riviera Hotel.
"Major General Zaha, the first batch of new weapons and equipment purchased by Syria can be delivered tomorrow night. Can you arrange personnel to receive them?" Li Yi asked.
"Tomorrow night?" Major General Zaha hadn't expected that the armored vehicles could be delivered so quickly after just paying Chaos Company with oil and natural gas.
"Yes, tomorrow night. Since Syria has purchased quite a few UAVs, they need to be arranged for delivery at an air base." Li Yi proposed the requirement.
"We can arrange for the army to receive them. As for the air base, how about delivering them directly at Geta Air Base?" Major General Zaha wanted to receive them in his own controlled territory.
"No problem. But can you guarantee that the USA won't conduct airstrikes after seeing such a large target?" Li Yi asked.
The quantity of armored vehicles and UAVs being delivered this time was not small, so the target would be relatively large. Furthermore, Geta Air Base was close to the area controlled by the USA. If the USA discovered it and launched an airstrike directly, it was very likely that all the weapons and equipment would be destroyed.
"Don't worry. I will arrange for troops equipped with the Tianlei Series Anti-Aircraft Missile to provide strict air defense at Geta." Major General Zaha was confident about this.
During this period, the USA had suffered losses again in the territory controlled by Major General Zaha, and now the number of airstrikes the USA conducted on the territory he controlled was extremely low. He didn't believe the USA would easily step into his territory again.
"Fine. You should evacuate all personnel from Geta Air Base to facilitate our transport. There are quite a lot of armored vehicles, so you still need to prepare for immediate transit." Li Yi urged.
"I will evacuate the personnel. We have enough troops nearby to carry out the transit." Major General Zaha's troops were right near Zarzur, which was relatively close.
Li Yi intended to deliver the weapons and equipment purchased by Iran as well, and soon contacted Colonel Suman.
"Colonel Suman, we will deliver the first batch of UAVs and anti-aircraft missiles you purchased tomorrow night. Do you have an air base near Bandar Abbas where you can receive them?" Li Yi asked.
"There is an air base near Bandar Abbas, at Minaka Air Force Base. Are you sure about delivering tomorrow night?" Colonel Suman reacted quickly and asked.
"Tomorrow night, we can deliver all the Sky Dragon Mark I UAVs and half of each of the Tianlei Type IV through Type VIII Anti-Aircraft Missiles." Li Yi confirmed.
"I will contact Commander-in-Chief Qasim to arrange personnel for receipt." Colonel Suman said hastily.
"Also, for the UAVs delivered to the Glass House, should they be transited by Iran, or should we deliver them directly to the Glass House?" Li Yi asked.
"The quantity is a bit large, so you should deliver them directly to the Glass House." Colonel Suman considered that they would be giving 300 Sky Dragon Mark I UAVs to the Glass House, and if Iran were to transit them, it could only be done by air, which was too troublesome.
"Okay. I will contact the people at the Glass House directly." Li Yi remembered that Colonel Suman had indeed said before that the weapons and equipment for the Glass House would be delivered directly in Syria, then urged, "Remember to evacuate all personnel from Minaka Air Force Base."
"No problem. All personnel will be evacuated." Colonel Suman said.
After hanging up Li Yi's call, Colonel Suman immediately contacted Commander-in-Chief Qasim.
"Commander-in-Chief Qasim, Chaos Company will deliver the UAVs and anti-aircraft missiles we purchased tomorrow night. It's arranged to be delivered at Minaka Air Force Base. Is that okay?" Colonel Suman asked for his opinion.
"Minaka Air Force Base? That's near Bandar Abbas, right? No problem." Commander-in-Chief Qasim was very happy to hear that the UAVs and anti-aircraft missiles would be delivered soon, so naturally, he had no objection to using Minaka Air Force Base.
"All personnel need to be evacuated from Minaka Air Force Base, and it will be handed over to Chaos Company for the transport of weapons and equipment." Colonel Suman continued.
"I will notify the person in charge of Minaka Air Force Base about this matter, and you can communicate directly with him regarding the details of the delivery." Commander-in-Chief Qasim arranged.
"Yes, Commander-in-Chief." Colonel Suman replied.
Colonel Suman quickly communicated with the person in charge of Minaka Air Force Base regarding all aspects of the weapon delivery, as well as the transit arrangements for the UAVs and anti-aircraft missiles after receipt.
Iran purchased 1,000 Sky Dragon Mark I UAVs. Except for the 300 UAVs allocated to the Glass House, the rest would naturally not all be deployed in Bandar Abbas; they needed to be transported to various air bases for deployment.
