Dominate South Asia

Sitting in a Mitsubishi SUV, his face was covered in blood, and his eyes were filled with incomparable anger.

"The evil Americans, this revenge must be avenged!" Saddam turned around and said to the middle-aged man beside him: "Mr. Xiao, thank you for saving me."

"Mr. President, the most important thing for us now is to rush to Basra in the south, where there are still hundreds of thousands of Iraqi troops with complete equipment. As long as we control the troops there, we can fight back again." Shostakovich said to Saddam.

Originally, when he arrived at the outskirts of Baghdad and saw that the battle was already fierce, Shostakovich knew that he was afraid that he would not be able to complete the task. If Saddam died in it, the Iraqi resistance would lose a soul and be easily defeated by the United States.

After waiting outside for two hours, Shostakovich finally decided to retreat. On the way back, he encountered a convoy of armored vehicles destroyed by air strikes. One of the Type 90 tanks was hit by a Hellfire anti-tank missile on the top of the turret, but the fuse failed and the missile did not explode! When Shostakovich climbed onto the tank, he found Saddam inside, who had been shocked and fainted.

The comfortable life had made Saddam lose his former wisdom. At this time, was it safe to escape in a tank? The tank was the first target to be hit by the armed helicopters in the air!

After dragging Saddam out and getting on his own off-road vehicle, Shostakovich headed straight for the southern city of Basra.

After Saddam woke up, he found that Shostakovich had saved him, and he was immediately very grateful. This man was simply the protector given to him by God!

After discovering that Baghdad was about to be surrounded, Saddam finally decided to flee. He mobilized an armored unit of the Hammurabi Division to escort him and his family out of the city. On the way, they encountered the American M1 tank. After a fierce battle, his subordinates dispersed. With just a few armored vehicles, they rushed south, but were hit by another air strike.

If it weren't for Shostakovich. Saddam would be gone.

The car drove quickly southward along the country road, and Shostakovich was very anxious.

The situation on the battlefield changed rapidly. Just after the United States made a great breakthrough on the northern front and occupied Baghdad, the capital of Iraq, and Tikrit, an important city in the north, the remaining corps stationed in Saudi Arabia were divided into three routes and began to move towards the Iraqi border.

Scud missiles? The Scud missiles that shone brightly in the last war disappeared in this war. The US army drove straight in, broke through the border, and quickly interspersed. Separating Basra and Kuwait and other places, hundreds of thousands of US troops launched a ruthless attack on the Iraqi army.

When Shostakovich and Saddam had not yet arrived in Basra, they received news that shocked them even more. The US army had occupied Basra, and the two infantry divisions guarding there had surrendered!

The situation deteriorated rapidly. Saddam couldn't believe his ears. The American ground battle ended in just four days?

After being divided and surrounded by the Americans, the Iraqi army lacked effective command and was in a state of fighting on its own. The United States easily resolved the battle with its strong military force.

Especially. When it was learned that the capital Baghdad and the hometown Tikrit were occupied by the US military, the morale of the Iraqi army was greatly hit, and in Kuwait, a large number of Iraqi troops gathered. They were surrounded by the Americans. Under the continuous fierce artillery fire, they lost the belief to fight on.

The battle went on without any suspense. The Americans once again confirmed the strength of their army in front of the whole world. It took only four days for the United States, which entered a state of war, to occupy the entire territory of Iraq and Kuwait! And the gimmick of Iraq's fourth world military power was beaten to pieces, and the millions of troops seemed to disappear quickly.

"No, we haven't failed yet!" Hiding in a house outside the city of Basra, Saddam's eyes were red. He had nothing now.

"Of course, you haven't failed yet." Shostakovich said: "We will fully support you."

Yes, with the support of the Soviet Union, he can make a comeback! Looking at Shostakovich, Saddam said: "Please tell your general secretary that as long as your country can send troops, we Iraq can provide a lot of money!"

Shostakovich shook his head: "Mr. President, please use your brain! There will be no force intervening in the fight between your country and the United States, especially a superpower, which will risk triggering a world war!"

How can the Soviet Union drive away the Americans if it does not send troops? Saddam's face was full of pain. He still couldn't understand why he had so many troops and failed so quickly?

"Mr. President, I remember the people's war I mentioned to you before. Do you remember it?" Shostakovich said.

People's war? Of course I remember it! Saddam said: "But how can we carry out the people's war?"

"Mr. President, do you feel that the current situation in Iraq is very similar to the situation in Afghanistan more than ten years ago?" Shostakovich said.

Similar to Afghanistan! At the beginning, the Soviets dispatched 100,000 troops and quickly overthrew the Afghan government, established a puppet government, and began to station troops in Afghanistan. The situation was so smooth at the time that the Soviet government began to celebrate the smooth implementation of the southward strategy.

Unfortunately, the successive popular uprisings and the ubiquitous guerrillas made the Soviets careless. After fighting for more than ten years, they finally withdrew from Afghanistan, announcing the failure of their Afghan war.

Now, the Americans quickly occupied Iraq with their powerful army, but can they survive for a long time?

Of course not! The people of this land are full of disgust towards the West! The final result of the Americans must be the same as the Soviets, leaving here in disgrace!

Thinking of this, Saddam's eyes finally began to have a vision.

Seeing Saddam being instigated, Shostakovich sighed in his heart. In fact, the situation of the two countries is still different. Afghanistan is mountainous. It is better to say that the Soviets were defeated by the Afghan guerrillas than to say that they were defeated in logistics and comprehensive national strength. Moreover, Afghanistan has no real benefits except for its geographical location.

Iraq is so close to Kuwait and Saudi Arabia that logistics is not a problem. Moreover, Iraq has black gold. The Americans’ occupation of Iraq can be transformed into real benefits. It would be difficult to drive the Americans away. However, it is easy to make the Americans bleed, which is also the instruction of President Muhammad! "Mr. President, although our army has failed and many of them have been dispersed, as long as we raise your flag again, those failed armies will definitely gather around you again. We will launch a people's war against the United States. They will be trapped in the vast ocean of Iraq. The final outcome of the Americans is failure!" Shostakovich continued. The Americans will eventually be driven away! Saddam's eyes regained confidence: "What about us now? Where should we go?" Where should we go? This should be asked to you, old Saddam. You have been operating in Iraq for so many years, and there are many places to go! "A safe place." Shostakovich said, "We first need to release your video to show that you are still alive, and we need to mobilize our people to wage a great people's war!"

Sairaibadi, a small town in southern Baghdad.

The streets were under martial law. American soldiers holding M16 rifles stood next to an M1 tank, checking passers-by. The battle in Baghdad was not easy. Although the battle is over now, the search for Iraqi soldiers is still going on.

In a house in the distance, a fat middle-aged man looked at everything here with a telescope and shook his head helplessly.

"It seems that we can only escape in the dark, or we lay down our weapons and pretend to be civilians." Ali Abdullah Shehri, the commander of the 8th Armored Brigade of the Hammurabi Division, was hiding in this small town in a panic.

In the battle that night, he commanded his men to destroy more than 30 American M1 tanks, but unfortunately he was outnumbered in the end. During the retreat, his tank ran over a mine, so he could only jump off the tank to move.

Now, with more than 20 people, hiding here, they are still waiting for orders from their superiors. This process is tormenting. There are Americans everywhere. Is this place really going to be occupied by Americans?

Returning to the basement where he was hiding, Ali, who had always been invincible in the army, was now at a loss.

"Look, Al Jazeera!" a soldier suddenly shouted.

At this time, are you still in the mood to watch TV? Ali couldn't help but sneer, but when he turned his head, his eyes widened.

President! The great President Saddam!

On the TV screen, there was a man in military uniform, with the iconic two mustaches and the bright eyes, that was their great president!

Sitting on a chair, with the Iraqi flag and the Baath Party flag hanging behind him, President Saddam spoke to the microphone with his inspiring words.

"My great warriors, this is a moment of shame for us. Our country has been invaded by the Americans!" The man inside said so sadly that everyone wanted to cry for a moment, but then they were full of fighting spirit. (To be continued ~^~)
