Dominate South Asia

Baghdad.

"Boom!" There was a huge explosion from outside. The entire underground fortification also trembled, and the light bulb hanging above the head also swayed left and right.

Sitting on a chair with a cigar in his mouth, Saddam's mood was not affected by these explosions at all. Now, he was quite satisfied.

What does the American bombing count for? It's just an expression of powerlessness! The huge military power of the Americans was wiped out in the Middle East by tens of thousands! And now, with his attacks on the United States, Saddam has given Americans a taste of war, and the domestic economy of the United States has also been greatly affected.

I am the hero of the entire Middle Eastern world! He is a hero who resists the West! These days, although the United States is still carrying out air strikes, many radical organizations have sent representatives to decide to be loyal to Saddam, and some organizations have provided Saddam with great financial help.

If you want money, you have money, and if you want people, if Americans still dare to come, let them have a taste of its power! Saddam is very satisfied with the current situation.

"Report, Mr. Xiao is here." Just as Saddam was looking at the map happily, the adjutant reported.

Mr. Xiao is here? Saddam suddenly stood up from his chair: "Quick, please come over, Mr. Xiao!"

Mr. Xiao, what he represents behind the scenes is the Soviet Union! You have the full support of the Soviet Union, so what are you afraid of?

Shostakovich walked in and looked at Saddam, who was full of excitement. Didn't this guy know that a disaster was coming?

"Mr. Xiao, have your weapons been transported? We still need at least 300 Scud missiles." Saddam said.

Shostakovich shook his head: "No, the U.S. inspections are very strict now. Our weapons are still in Syria for the time being. As long as our convoy moves, it will be discovered by the Americans. We don't want those missiles on the road." It was bombed by the United States.”

The United States has been carefully studied. It was discovered that the source of Iraq's weapons must have come to Syria via land, so we focused on monitoring the north. It would be too difficult to transport them in without anyone noticing as before.

If you look at the map of Iraq, you will know that Iran is in the east, which is an old enemy, and the south is now close to the Persian Gulf, but the Persian Gulf is under the control of the US Navy. To the west are Saudi Arabia and Jordan, and only Syria. Moreover, Syria is completely siding with the Soviet Union, and those Scud missiles in Iraq are absolutely inseparable from the Soviet Union.

When he heard that the most anticipated Scud missiles could not be transported, Saddam suddenly became anxious: "Then how can we attack the Americans?"

Although Iraq has a huge military power, to truly compete with the world's largest military power, it can only rely on unconventional means, and Saddam is eager to try it. Then use Scud missiles to inflict heavy casualties on the Americans and make them completely withdraw from Iraq. But now, the Scud missiles can never be transported!

The last missile sea. All the Scud missiles have been used up. Now, Saddam has prepared the funds to purchase them, but they have been unable to arrive!

Saddam was very anxious. In his eyes, Mr. Xiao was more than just an arms dealer. He was almost like his military adviser. After all, he had almost all won these battles according to Mr. Xiao's command.

He looked at Shostakovich with bright eyes, trying to get a satisfactory answer from him.

"I have received definite news that the Americans have launched an offensive in the past few days, and they will launch the most violent offensive." Shostakovich said: "The United States has carried out war mobilization across the country. This time it will participate in In the Gulf War, there will be four armies with a total of 500,000 troops. There will also be a coalition of British and other countries' troops, with a total number of more than 600,000. This time they will come with fierce force and want to overthrow your country's regime in one fell swoop. ”

This is not the hereafter. In later generations, after the end of the Cold War, the United States drastically reduced its military. In the end, only four armies and three independent brigades were left. Now that the Cold War is still ongoing, the strength of the American military is also on the rise, with a total of two More than one million troops, not including the more than one million National Guard.

Now, the angry United States has mobilized more than 500,000 troops to bury Saddam's regime in one fell swoop. An army of one million is coming!

In addition to being large in quantity, the U.S. military also has great advantages in terms of quality. Among these armies, the United States is equipped with a large number of M1 main battle tanks, as well as the Marine Corps and other troops with outstanding combat effectiveness. They have rich combat experience and Complete control of the air.

It's just that in order to avoid being hit again, the Americans arranged these troops outside the range of the Scud missiles.

"The more good things come, the better! We want the Americans to know who is the master of this land!" Saddam said: "Mr. Xiao, how should we respond?"

"First, move one or two divisions of the Republican Guard from the south to guard Baghdad," Shostakovich said.

The Americans will take a ground-effect aircraft directly to the vicinity of Baghdad, quickly occupy Baghdad, and play a role in capturing the thieves and the king. Shostakovich already knew this news. After knowing it, he immediately took Mhama with him. The plan formulated by the German President came to see Saddam.

Of course, Shostakovich could not directly say that it was Pakistan's help, he could only talk about the intelligence he obtained.

"Moved back?" Saddam was very puzzled: "If the Americans continue to attack, they should attack Kadima Province first, right?"

Kadima Province is Kuwait. After the Iraqi army occupied Kuwait again, it was renamed Kadima Province. This time Iraq will not compromise anymore. It has completely become a province of Iraq!

According to the previous arrangement, the United States will definitely capture Kuwait first. After all, the Americans were involved in this war on the pretext of helping the Emir, and they should restore their country first.

"President Saddam, please think about it!" Shostakovich seemed a little impatient: "In the past, the Americans would definitely attack Kadima Province first, but what about now? The Americans are fighting The goal is to overthrow the government you lead! Under such circumstances, will the Americans still enter from Kuwait and risk your Scud missiles?”

Although Iraq no longer has Scud missiles, the Americans don't know that. The Americans have been hesitant to move forward just because of Iraq's Scud missiles.

At that time, it was to help Kuwait restore its country, but now, it is to overthrow Saddam's regime. The goals of this operation are different, and the method of fighting will of course be different!

Saddam suddenly came to his senses: "Yes, maybe the Americans will cross over from the western desert and launch an attack directly on our capital! Our holy Baghdad cannot be defiled by the Americans!"

The Americans actually want to attack Baghdad! Thinking of these, Saddam's body trembled a little, and he was already extremely angry.

"Order, Hammurabi Division and Medina Division to withdraw from Kadima Province immediately!" Saddam said: "Guard our great capital!"

"Boom!" There was another explosion, and the entire underground fortification shook again.

The Americans have significantly increased their air strikes in recent days, and they are indeed preparing for an attack. Now that they know the Americans' goals, they will never let them succeed!

"President, the sky belongs to the Americans now. It will be very difficult for our troops to withdraw." Ibrahim said to Saddam.

Air supremacy! In modern warfare, mastering the air is almost equivalent to mastering everything. For example, now, the Iraqi army is hiding in the city and will not be easily eliminated by the Americans. If it returns to defense on a large scale, it will be destroyed halfway. The American Air Force discovered that countless Mavericks air-to-ground missiles would soon fall from the sky and kill the tank troops.

Since the United States resumed air strikes, such large-scale mobilization has been too difficult.

"I brought new equipment this time." Shostakovich said: "I have a tarpaulin to prevent heat radiation. As long as it is covered on the engine cover, it can significantly reduce the heat radiation of the engine. Those fighters in the sky It’s not easy to find. As long as we advance at night, we should be able to avoid being discovered by the U.S. Air Force.”

The movement of tanks on the ground is mainly caused by the heat of the engine, which forms thermal radiation, which is detected by infrared imaging equipment, even if it is hidden under the desert. The protection of this thermal radiation has become the focus of research and development by various countries. Preventing the spread of infrared radiation can reduce the probability of being discovered.

"This is great!" Saddam said: "Mr. Xiao, thank you very much for your contribution to our Iraq."

"Mr. President Saddam, you want to cause the United States to suffer greater casualties. At the same time, you should improve the existing command methods and give grassroots officers and soldiers greater autonomy." Shostakovich said: "Although we have A fiber optic communication system has been established, but once the Americans land in Iraq, it is easy to destroy our communication system. In an electromagnetic interference environment, our command will have problems, which may affect the progress of the battle. "

Delegate command authority! During the original Gulf War, the United States destroyed Iraq's command system, and the Iraqi military was in a chaotic war. It was not until the second Iraq War that Saddam, who had learned his lesson, delegated command authority.

You know, for a leader, he hopes to be able to firmly grasp the command power at all times. This is related to whether his position can be secure. Now that Saddam has not suffered a loss, if you want him to delegate the command power, I am afraid that It's not easy.

Sure enough, Saddam heard Shostakovich's suggestion and did not adopt it. Instead, he continued: "Mr. Xiao, do you have any other suggestions?" (To be continued ~^~)
