"Haha, I...did I say that? It's impossible for people who have studied abroad to have such observation and understanding of international military affairs." Upon hearing Feng Sizhe change his words, Zu Jie smiled to himself.
"Then do you agree with the idea of Lieutenant General Zhao and Division Commander Zhao?" Duan Yunyue, who had been silent all this time, suddenly asked this question. Obviously, he had read the article by Lieutenant General Zhao and his son on the local modernized war in the Gulf.
Duan Yunyue's question made Feng Sizhe smile. "It's not that I agree with this idea, but that this war is bound to break out. Iraq's main purpose of occupying Kuwait is to write off the huge debt owed to Kuwait by occupying Kuwait, and use this "treasury" to solve the serious crisis brought to the national economy by the eight-year Iran-Iraq War. The occupation of Kuwait can improve its naval activities and the sea routes for oil exports and other foreign trade, solve the long-standing border disputes between the two countries and the resulting disputes over oil development in the border areas, and "kill the chicken to scare the monkey", which can deter the Gulf countries and other Middle Eastern countries, and pave the way for them to compete for the leadership of the Arab world and dominate the Middle East. "
After saying this, Feng Sizhe paused and continued, "The Iraqi armed forces' invasion of Kuwait would have triggered the Gulf crisis and become the direct fuse of the Gulf War. In addition, this time they are fighting for oil, which is comparable to gold, so naturally the war will break out sooner or later. It's just a matter of timing, and by that time, as expected, the United States should join the war. It's impossible for them not to participate in this kind of war where they can gain a lot if they win and have little loss if they lose. And looking at the geographical situation, a large battle is obviously unlikely. Due to geographical limitations, only local wars can play the most beneficial role."
Feng Sizhe talked about his past life's understanding of the Gulf War and its causes. These were views that were not written in the article. It was precisely because of this that everyone present was shocked. Duan Yuntao, who was not familiar with these general trends, could not help but complain when he saw Feng Sizhe's explanation, "Is it true?"
"What Feng Sizhe said makes a lot of sense." This was said by none other than Duan Yunyue.
As the staff officer of the commander of the Capital Military Region, he obviously understood these things better than everyone else. He had just clearly heard Feng Sizhe's analysis, and for a moment he felt that his mind was suddenly enlightened. After listening to Feng Sizhe's analysis, Iraq and Kuwait would have a war sooner or later, and the Gulf War would also break out sooner or later.
"Feng Sizhe, I wonder when do you think this war will break out?" Duan Yunyue, who was very interested in Feng Sizhe's words, couldn't help but ask another question.
As soon as Duan Yunyue said this, everyone's eyes turned to him. Since Feng Sizhe predicted that this war would come sooner or later, he should have been prepared in time.
Feng Sizhe sat there and calculated the date. He knew that according to the historical trajectory, the war would start in a month and a half, but he was not sure whether history would continue to go this way. For this reason, he conservatively said, "It should be within half a year. If it's fast, it will probably be within three months."
"Why are you so sure?" Duan Yunyue is fine if he doesn't speak, but once he speaks, he is determined to get to the bottom of things.
"Analysis, everything is obtained through analysis. Recently I have been communicating with some British classmates, many of whom are military enthusiasts, and I learned this from the information they gave me." Feng Sizhe nodded and said without any doubt. At this time, he could only push the matter onto his classmates in the UK. Anyway, he didn't know any of these people, so he wouldn't ask them to testify for this matter.
Feng Sizhe's answer immediately made Duan Yunyue nod his head. "Maybe what you and your classmates said is right."
Duan Yunyue's short words made the others speechless. Duan Yunyue was undoubtedly the authority among the few people in terms of military affairs, and he believed that Feng Sizhe was right, so how could they object? What were they objecting to?
"Then Feng Sizhe, according to what you said, once the war breaks out, oil will become a scarce commodity, and its price will soar?" Duan Yunpeng is a natural born businessman. After listening to these war stories, he did not think about whether what Feng Sizhe said made sense or not, but was more concerned about whether the price of oil, the most scarce substance in the world, would rise.
Duan Yunpeng's question made Feng Sizhe look at him with a high opinion of him. This man was very sensitive to business opportunities. This was what Feng Sizhe was thinking. He had already said all about today's events, so he had to answer this question. "Well, Yunpeng is right, that's right."
"Wow!" Duan Yunpeng shouted excitedly when he heard Feng Sizhe nod affirmatively. He was happy that he had found an opportunity to make a fortune.
Seeing Duan Yunpeng so excited, Feng Zhe also smiled, thinking that the money from oil futures is not earned by one person, so if he can help him now, he will do so. He will not lose anything and can also owe him a favor, which is a good thing. "What? Yunpeng, what are you going to do?"
"Brother? Aren't you planning to buy some more gasoline to store it? We'll need a big place to store all this stuff." Duan Yuntao also noticed that his brother was interested in oil, so he couldn't help asking.
"Haha." Feng Sizhe couldn't help laughing out loud when he heard Duan Yuntao say this. This Duan Yuntao has such a lovely side.
"You... what are you laughing at?" Facing Feng Sizhe, Duan Yuntao always felt that he lacked confidence. The first time he fought with him, he suffered a loss. He called his brother, but he treated Feng Sizhe with courtesy and treated him as a guest of honor. The second time was when he wanted to ask Feng Sizhe if what he said about the Gulf War made sense. He originally wanted to question the other party, but he didn't expect his cousin Duan Yunyue to help him out. He suffered a second loss. Now he asked his brother if he bought oil before the war, but Feng Sizhe laughed at him again. For a moment, he really felt that this person seemed to be his nemesis, sent by God to tyrannize him.
"What am I laughing at? Ask your brother why I am laughing at. " Hearing Duan Yuntao's question, Feng Sizhe shook his head. Duan Yuntao's business sensitivity is not even half of his brother's.
"Brother?" Hearing Feng Sizhe say this, Duan Yuntao fixed his eyes on his brother Duan Yunpeng.
"Hey, brother, if you don't understand something, don't talk nonsense. It will make people laugh." He shook his head like Feng Sizhe did, then looked at Feng Sizhe and said, "Feng Sizhe, I believe you. Since you predicted that this war will break out in the near future, I think you must have made preparations in this regard and want to make a fortune. How about it, do you have the confidence to cooperate with us?"
