Chapter 011, full of pride

Su Su originally thought that Simon's mood would definitely be bad next, and whoever was treated like this would definitely not feel good, but he didn't expect Simon to recover quickly, the old fox was an old fox after all, and the smile on his face was as if what had happened just now had not happened

Canglong didn't care, because this just proves that Simon is a very self-controlled person, if Simon turns his head and gets angry with him, or plays some small emotions, Canglong has to underestimate him a little, and he can do it himself, Simon is already benevolent and righteous to these two people, and there is no need to be pretentious at all

"You guys get out," Simon glanced at the staff officer

Canglong also glanced at Su Su, Su Su nodded, now is the time to report, and when there are only two people left in the office, Simon suddenly said: "I hope you can promise me one thing"

"I hope I don't become a second Saddam, right?" Canglong guessed something

"Yes, I hope that Iraq can be really strong under your leadership, and become rich and powerful," said Simon, a man with great ambitions, and if it weren't for Iraq, Simon would not have been able to come back to the mountains and bring people back here from Iran

"Your wish will come true, but it will take you and me to work together," Canglong said with a smile, "I promise you now that nothing will be useful, do you understand?"

Simon nodded and said, "What are you going to do next?"

"Hehe" Canglong smiled and sat back, "This is exactly the question I want to ask you, do you think the Prophet Army should go that step next, to be honest, I am not as good as you in military affairs, but you are always in the wrong position, now you are in the right position, you should give full play to your due talents"

This was a bit unexpected by Simon, he knew very well what Canglong meant by this sentence, this was a test, and then he took out the entire map of Iraq without being verbose, and said: "With the strength of the south"

Canglong suddenly interrupted: "It's not that with our strength, you are already my chief of general staff, the supreme military commander of Basra."

Simon nodded and said, "With our strength, we are now enough to fight a tough battle with the US military, but we must not confront them head-on."

"Why," Canglong asked

"Quite simply, there is a superpower supported by the superpowers, and although we have the support of the Russians, Russia is not unconditionally supported, and if there is no hope of victory, let alone a military alliance, even fraternal Russia will not hesitate to abandon us," Simon said calmly

"Then he said," Canglong gestured

"Since we can't go head-to-head with them, then we can only attack from the inside, let's take these three provinces first and defend them," Simon pointed to the three provinces opposite Basra, which are also the provinces of Misan, Dikar, and Muthanna, "as long as we take here, we will have a strategic buffer, and now we can fight a protracted war with the Americans."

"What kind of enduring method to know that the other party is a superpower," Canglong asked rhetorically

"The U.S. economy is already weak, and it is impossible to send troops directly to Iraq, so the only thing we have to face is the allies of the United States, such as Saudi Arabia and Turkey, which have absolute strength in the Middle East, especially the military power of E. Israel, even if the Prophet Army wants to confront the Sèlie head-on, I am afraid it will be difficult to win," Simon expressed his concern. I know that the Prophet Army is very strong, but it is still far from enough to face the Israeli column that has been fighting since the founding of the country, and even in the face of the American army, it is still very difficult, but fortunately, the American army cannot send a large force over, and the current international situation absolutely does not allow them to send troops, and the Israeli column that can send troops is not adjacent to Iraq, so the only thing they can send is the air force and missiles."

Canglong nodded: "What you said is right, the entrance to the sea was blocked by the Russians, and it is impossible for the Americans to attack Iraq from the sea, so the possible land attacks are Jordan, Turkey and Saudi Arabia, so when do you judge when they should attack us, and how should we react?"

Hearing this, Simon looked at the map and pondered for half an hour, and then he suddenly said: "Once we fight a tough battle with the American-backed army, and they are both defeated, they will appear, and then we will be attacked by the enemy, even if we crush the army, how can the Americans still occupy this place as if we were supporting a puppet, but we may lose everything."

Canglong nodded: "It's true that we can't fight a tough battle unless we are sure enough, but I think that even if we don't fight a tough battle with the zhèng fǔ army, in the end, these countries will send troops."

"Yes, we will still have to face Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Turkey, and at the same time we will be attacked by the US military, Israel and other Western countries," Simon worried

Canglong also looked at the map and smiled, and continued to ask: "How to deal with it"

"Attack!" Simon said coldly: "Only by attacking can there be a way out, just sit back and wait to attack, Jordan will plunge the sword straight into the heart of the sère, as long as we can hit the sère, the whole world will be shocked by our military strength, and at the same time, it will force Turkey and Saudi Arabia to retreat"

"How do you know they're going to retreat," Canglong continued

"There is no country in the Middle East that has not suffered from the sè column, and the country that can make the sè lie suffer will be a stronger country than the sè column, and other countries have absolutely no reason to continue to be our enemy," Simon confidently said, "This is also the only hard battle we need to fight, and if we win it, we will win the whole of Iraq and the whole Middle East, and if we lose, we will lose everything that we have built before, and we will inevitably retaliate with the madness of the sè column."

"You're a gambler," Canglong made his assessment

"You too," Simon replied

"No, I don't bet on unsure bets," Canglong said with a smile

Simon was a little disappointed, Canglong's words were telling him that this plan was not feasible and too risky, but he didn't expect Canglong to continue: "But with your factor, I think I can make a bet"

Simon immediately had a smile on his face: "I will definitely live up to your expectations"

"No, what you shouldn't live up to is the expectations of the Iraqis, from today onwards, all the troops in Basra will obey your command, except for me, you are the supreme military commander of the Prophet's Army, do whatever you want," Canglong said calmly

Simon did not expect that he could feel honor and responsibility from this young man who was dozens of years younger than himself, although it was heavy, but his heart was full of pride, whether it was under Saddam Hussein, or in the Iranian army, or under Hussein, he was never trusted, but now he felt this trust, long-lost trust

Next, the two were like best friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time, and they talked a lot about it, and at this time, Basra also received the news that Canglong was going to the meeting alone

At that time, Vivien was furious, and it is said that the prime minister almost lifted the table that day, and as for the snow leopard, they looked helpless, and there was no way to do it, their heads never played according to common sense, and they could use the safest way, but he didn't have to run around alone

Bai Wuchang said at the time: "This guy is going to pretend to be B"

Despite this, they quickly drew up a battle plan, but when they arrived in Dikal Province, they found that all the coalition forces had surrendered, and all they had to do was take in the prisoners and regroup

Snow Leopard: They rushed to the headquarters of the Alliance Army, but found Canglong drinking tea with Simon, and when he saw them coming, Canglong hurriedly called them in, and then announced his order to appoint Simon as Chief of the General Staff

At that time, their faces changed and they said that this guy would not be the second Akram, so black impermanence patted Simon on the shoulder without the slightest suspicion, and almost slapped his old bones apart

Snow Leopard, they quickly accepted this fact, because after Simon took office, he was not polite at all, and directly issued the battle order, as if he had been prepared in advance, and his command was clear and clear, and in some respects he was much more professional than Canglongke, and even in some places he was as detailed as a battalion platoon

As expected, on this day, they fought a big victory, because the northern zhèng fǔ army did not react at all, and they were even surprised on the battlefield at how their enemy had become the Prophet Army instead of the previous Union Army, so they finally defeated half of the three provinces, and they were directly driven out by the Prophet Army

By the third day, all remnants had been wiped out, and the Prophet army had captured the provinces of Missan, Dikal, and Muthanna at the slightest cost

When the Prophet Army reacted and built fortifications, the Prophet Army stopped at the border of the three provinces, and the Prophet Army was even surprised by the quality of these Prophetic Army, as if there was some force blocking the border, no matter how they provoked it, the Prophet Army would not cross the border even a single step

The victory quickly reached Basra, and the Basra people did not even have time to react to the victory, and if it were not for the video of the troops stationed in the three governorates broadcast on Basra TV, I am afraid they would have thought that someone was spreading rumors

But after watching the TV broadcast, they were still like a dream, and then the whole Basra was in jubilation, and countless people who had fled to Basra from the three provinces poured out of the border, wanting to return to the homeland that once belonged to them, even if it was dilapidated, which was also their home

As Prime Minister Vivian immediately announced the liberation of the three provinces and held a press conference, promising to solve the problem of food, clothing, and electricity supply for all people in the three provinces in the shortest possible time, even if it was difficult, and at the same time give everyone there enough options to go to the north and continue to be their puppet citizens, or they can stay here and become full citizens of the southern provinces
