The news of the Prophet's army connecting the three provinces overnight and subduing the coalition army quickly spread throughout Iraq, and the already unstable northern government quickly fell into turmoil, and according to the original plan, they forced the coalition army into Basra step by step, thus causing a divisive situation in Basra.

But they didn't expect that after the coup, what they got was a more powerful enemy, and the coalition army was subdued overnight, so that they completely lost the important chess piece in their plan.

The person who made this plan was Natasha, she didn't expect Hussein and Sadr to be so stupid, after the three provinces were captured and included in the territory of the southern government, Natasha stomped her feet angrily, and Natasha, who was ready to fight back with all her might, was stopped by the sea eagle.

"If you fight back now, you will only lose a lot. The sea eagle's words made Natasha completely calm.

"So what now, do you sit still?" asked Natasha.

"Now your priority is to stabilize the morale of the army, whether it is our people or the Iraqis, you must stabilize them, otherwise you will have no chance to counterattack except for being beaten passively. "Now the whole north is in a state of instability. ”

Natasha realized something, since the involvement in the Iraq war, the morale of the US military has begun to decline, until the occupation of more than ten years, in the withdrawal of troops, in the increase of troops, this has almost exhausted all the morale of the US troops in Iraq, otherwise it would not have taken so long in the face of the coalition army.

Although there is also Simon's role in this, morale is the most important thing, the United States is still the world's only superpower, and its military strength is incomparable to any country in the world, but morale is not something that can be replaced by weapons and equipment.

"What to do?" asked Natasha.

"You should ask yourself what to do, you are the supreme commander of the US forces in Iraq. The sea eagle said.

Natasha was silent, but she quickly thought of a way: "Let Congress continue to increase its troops, the situation in Iraq is not as good as before, if we lose here, all the efforts we have put in for more than ten years will be in vain, and we will usher in an even more terrible enemy." ”

"It's a really good idea. The sea eagle nodded, "However, you have to get the support of Ambassador Alexandra, without him, you can't do anything in Iraq." ”

"Do you mean to ask me to beg that damn politician?" Natasha was furious.

Since she took office with Alessandra, the ambassador to Iraq has never cooperated with her well, and most of the time he is dragging her back, which makes Natasha extremely indignant.

"If you don't ask for it, you have to ask for it, even if it's for the sake of the United States, what if you temporarily lower your head?" said the sea eagle with a smile, "As long as you can get his support, there is a ninety percent probability that Congress will agree to increase the troops, so that you can let the northern government see hope, and we can also let our people see hope, otherwise there is no need to continue fighting, the northern government will soon collapse, and our people will collapse." ”

Natasha's face trembled: "Okay, I'll beg him!"

"There's a reception for senior Iraqi officials at the Rashid Hotel tonight, and I think you should attend. The sea eagle said calmly.

"I see. Natasha said impatiently, she was a good intelligence officer and a good military director, but she was not a politician, so she had never attended any drinking parties in Iraq for so long, and she had even declined the Iraqi prime minister's banquet.

And now she's about to go to a drinking party full of disgusting faces, but she has to force a smile on her face, and this day she was dressed brightly, and it was the only time she appeared in public in such a feminine way.

She immediately became the center of attention for everyone in Rashid's Hotel, including Alessandra, the old politician's squinting gaze did not shy away from it, and although it made her disgusting, Natasha walked over with a drink and struck up a conversation with him.

"Miss Natasha, why are you interested in coming to such a disgusting banquet today?" Alexandra's gaze never took off Natasha's body.

"I do find it disgusting because these people don't realize that their fragile government forces, without our support, will only be beaten like dead dogs, without even a chance to breathe. Natasha smiled.

Alessandra's face was not good, because Natasha's words were also sarcastic to him, but as an old politician, Alessandra did not show her displeasure, but just smiled and said: "You are exaggerating, what is the Prophet Army, can you still help us in the United States? As long as we are here for a day, the Prophet Army is a joke." ”

"Jokes?" Natasha laughed, "I think you're the joke, it seems that you don't know our current opponent, the man who can send all his administrative officials to the gallows, will show you mercy?"

Alexandra's face became more and more ugly, he had naturally heard about it, but he didn't care, and when he was about to refute something, Natasha immediately laughed: " Yes, it is undeniable that the United States is indeed still the world's first superpower, but the Chinese have begun to catch up, they are more terrible than the Soviets, you can't deny that the United States has weakened, and our opponent is becoming stronger step by step, the most terrible thing is that this opponent will not be as stupid as the Soviets, they are smart and never confront us head-on, when one day, we really realize our weakness, maybe they have surpassed us, then your self-proclaimed strength is the real joke, when the prophetic army hits Baghdad, everyone here will be sent to the gallows by him, you, me, no exception。 ”

Alexandra was stunned, this was the first time he had spoken to Natasha on such an occasion, at this moment he felt that he had underestimated the woman in front of him who was dozens of years younger than himself, but he still found the loophole in Natasha's words: "If the Prophet Army really dares to be our enemy, why do we still have a base in Basra?"

"Huh. The warm smile on Natasha's face suddenly changed, and it became cold, making Alexandra hairy, "That base, is the confirmation of the joke, do you know why he kept that base? It's not that he doesn't dare to have a head-on conflict with us, but he doesn't want to, do you know what it means not to want to? It depends on his mood, if he is in a bad mood one day, maybe the people in that base will be sent to the gallows by him, and I, who is in charge of military affairs, know more than you, you are just a layman who can only play with power." ”

Although Alessandra was tempted to get angry, he calmed down in the face of the aggressive Natasha: "What you said is true?"

"Do you need me to show you the information myself?" Natasha said with a smile. Losing Iraq, the United States will lose a strategic core land, especially when this strategic core land falls into the hands of enemy countries, not only the interests of the United States will be damaged, but also the interests of you, and those behind you, will also be damaged, when we are not a superpower, the fate will be worse than that of the Soviets, think about those enemies we have offended, whether you want to become a fish on the chopping block, or you want to be a strong man to continue to dominate the world, it is up to you to choose. ”

After speaking, Natasha left proudly, even the toast of the Iraqi Prime Minister was directly rejected by her, watching him leave, Alexandra's face became more and more difficult to see, he was in a bad mood, not because of Natasha's words, but because of these facts in front of him, Natasha would never use these to deceive him.

"Have we really come this far?" Alexandra couldn't believe it, but he quickly left the Rashid Hotel and returned to the embassy.

Just as he was about to call to the United States, suddenly a person pressed his phone, Alexandra was a little surprised on her face, and when she saw the true face of this person, she calmed down again: "Why are you here, aren't you afraid of being discovered by her?"

"There are new instructions on it. The man said.

"What's the instruction?" Alexandra wondered, "I'm going to deal with the problem at hand first, if we lose here, we'll lose ........."

"Natasha is right, we are indeed about to lose here, but if we lose here, we will gain more. The man said again.

"What do you mean?" Alexandra wondered, "It took more than ten years, did you just give up?"

"You don't need to know what it means, you just need to complete this task below, helping Natasha while restraining her. The man smiled and said, "Let her think that she has done her best, and the United States has done her best, understand?"

"I don't understand. Alexandra shook her head, "Give Iraq to the Russians?" or to the Chinese?"

"Do you know that prophet?" the man sneered, "he is our man, this is just a game, a game to lead Russia and China into the trap, and when they are in place, we will give them a fatal blow at the critical moment!"

Arizandara couldn't believe it, but this time he didn't ask why, just said: "Since he is our person, it would be good for us to cooperate with him directly, why make such a big detour, and we can also explain it directly to Natasha, wouldn't it be better?"

"If it weren't for Natasha's determination, if we gave up Iraq, the Russians would be suspicious, and the Chinese would be even more suspicious, understand?" the man said coldly, "not arousing the suspicion of these two countries is the most desired result above, you just need to implement it." ”

Alexandra was even more confused, but by the time he lost his mind, the man had already left, and he looked around the office, only to find it empty.

Eventually, he picked up the phone, but he changed what he was going to say and replaced it with a different one.........
