Chapter 069, start
() While the Senate was frowning, another incident in Iraq shook the world, which was provoked entirely by the Prophet Army, and the Philippine Peacekeepers in Iraq bombed the camp by the Prophet Army, and Simon, Chief of the Prophet's General Staff, made no statement
Even the official Basra did not give any explanation, which made the whole world in an uproar, but President Phia personally held a press conference to jointly demand that the United Nations impose sanctions on Iraq and submit a draft for military intervention, saying that the Iraqi people were in dire straits under the rule of the Prophet's Army, and that the Prophet was worse than Saddam
The senators reacted immediately, they couldn't imagine that the left hand would make such a low-level mistake, they didn't have a reason, but now they have a reason, the whole world is condemning the new Iraq, and even worse, they directly put on the high hat of a dú cái butcher to Canglong
I don't know which media fabricated an article saying that the Prophet Army had found Saddam's former nuclear plant, was developing nuclear weapons with the support of Iran, and also sent out some photos of the uranium enrichment plant, and for some reason, these photos were quickly reprinted by the mainstream media in the United States, and then the news around the world began to report that Iraq might be developing nuclear weapons and that it would conduct a nuclear test in the near future
For a while, the world was shaken, and the Israeli prime minister in the Middle East was the first to react, and the Israeli prime minister made a speech condemning the new Iraq's development of nuclear weapons, saying that it was undermining regional stability
A week later, the United Nations referendum began, and the main direction of voting was the resolution on the direct use of force against Iraq, and Russia simply voted against, and China naturally abstained from voting, as before
The Russian president even issued a direct statement, saying that this is another staged plot by Iraq, and although I regret that the Prophet Army actually took action against the peacekeeping forces, it is too old-fashioned to use such a high hat as developing nuclear weapons, and it is not idle, and Russia will definitely support the righteous side and support Russia's partners
The president's high-profile speech made the whole world smell that Russia is going to resolutely support the new Iraq, and in contrast, China has also made its own response, and the two fleets in the North Sea and the South China Sea have conducted large-scale naval military exercises in disputed areas and in the South China Sea sovereignty area, respectively
This also made military experts around the world smell a smell, although the Chinese do not say it on the surface, but they have expressed their position with practical actions, you must know that the strongest referendum to the United Nations is the Philippines and rì Ben, and these two countries are also the countries that have recently shouted the most against China, and it is self-evident what China's actions represent
In contrast, Basra, the new capital of Iraq, is very calm, and the people here do not care if it is the Prophet's army, they only know that no matter what enemy invades Iraq, they will defend the new country, the country that has driven away the humiliation and restored the confidence of the Iraqis
The populace was even talking about how the Prophet would beat the Yankees and Europeans over their coffee
The official did not say anything about this, and everything remained silent, but the United Nations referendum soon decided to use force against Iraq and divide the no-fly zone over Iraq, with Turkey as the main force to attack the former capital of Iraq, Baghdad, and the US troops in Baghdad as a countermeasure, and the Prophet's army was supposed to crush the Prophet's army
And NATO's fighter and aircraft carrier battle groups are used as reinforcements, of course, this reinforcement is very weak, because in the Persian Gulf, the American fleet does not occupy the initiative, not to mention the fact that it has to face the combined fleets of Russia and the new Iraq, as well as the Iranian Navy, which always gives them headaches
If the Persian Gulf can't do it, then it can only be from the direction of the Mediterranean, but in the direction of the Mediterranean, they will still have to face the Syrian Navy, and it is even more impossible for them to directly cross the border from Syria to bomb Iraq
So in the end, NATO countries set their sights on the Black Sea, and the main air attack was launched from the direction of Turkey, but there was a Russian Black Sea Fleet in the Black Sea, and once the fleets of NATO countries were assembled in the Black Sea, the Russian fleet would definitely monitor how many sorties you took off, where the planes went, and finally all fell into the eyes of the Russians, and Russia knew about the new Iraq
But there was no way but this place, and they could not find any gap where they could perfectly bomb Iraq
After two weeks of deliberations, NATO countries finally planned a period of attack and began to send troops to the vicinity of Iraq, among which Rì Ben and the Philippines were the most excited, and the two countries sent as many as 10,000 people to Iraq, and the Philippines had equipment provided by the United States
Seeing that the development of events has reached an irreparable situation, but there is no tension at all in the new Iraq, from the prime minister to the officials at the lowest level, there is basically nothing to do, and even the Prophet Army has not made much change
However, in the Grand Mosque, Canglong successively received the ambassadors of Kuwait, Iran, Russia, and Syria, and on the Chinese side, Canglong did not summon him, but the two sides maintained tacit communication
For Russian Ambassador Nikolav, Canglong's plate this time is really too big, after all, it is a joint attack by NATO countries, so although the Russian side promised to provide all weapons and equipment, it will not directly participate in the war, but Russia will provide intelligence support to Iraq, at least in the Persian Gulf, the Americans do not want to take any advantage
And Iran, of course, is a strong supporter of the Prophet Army, Ali Daei, and even brought Iranian leaders, if Iraq needs troop support, they are happy to enter Iraq to attack the multinational force, but Canglong is very tactful refusal, the reason is simple, he will visit Iran soon
One of the most powerful is that since the Kuwaiti ambassador embraced the thigh of the Prophet's army, the timid king of Kuwait actually rejected many requests from the Americans, including the reinforcement of Kuwait's troops, the invasion of the multinational force in Kuwait, the first choice of the army was to attack in Kuwait, but Kuwait sternly refused, and they will maintain absolute neutrality
Of course, this neutrality was for the Americans, and for the hard-hearted spirit of the Kuwaiti king, Canglong also greatly appreciated the Kuwaiti ambassador to bring back the message, and as long as the Prophet Army existed, Kuwait would always be a friend of Iraq
Perhaps most surprisingly, Syria was a country that did not begin to cooperate with the Prophet's Army until after the establishment of the new Iraq, but at an ambiguous distance
However, Canglong did not care, because Syria faces Turkey to the north, and the Mediterranean Sea to the south and Jordan to the west, and also faces the US fleet, in addition to the Iraqi side, it can be said that it is attacked on three sides, and it is reasonable to maintain an ambiguous relationship with the Prophet Army, after all, whether the Prophet Army can win is still a question, and it really annoys the Americans, and Syria will definitely follow in the footsteps of Libya
But the Syrian ambassador likewise assured that the military presence of any multinational force would not be allowed to transit through Syrian territory
Canglong was very satisfied with the statement of the neighboring friendly countries, and looked at the wind and rain destroying Iraq, Canglong's heart was like water: "This is my last fight, if I succeed, my goal will be achieved quickly, and if I fail, all my previous efforts will come to naught."
"Is this war what you are waiting for?" Su Shan wondered, "War doesn't solve all problems, and it's no wonder they have given you the title of Butcher Dú Cái."
"But you can't deny that war can sometimes solve certain problems," Canglong said with a smile, "I don't want to change the world, but I can change certain patterns in certain places, such as Iraq, even if the Prophet Army loses this time, it doesn't mean that Iraq will lose."
"What do you mean," Su Shan looked puzzled
"This is actually a world war, because almost all the big powers in the world are involved, but some contribute money, some contribute power, and what I want is that they contribute money and efforts, especially the US-led NATO Prophet Army, which may not win, or even defeat miserably," Canglong said
"If you will lose miserably, why do you want to fight," Su Shan asked
"Because I want to reason with others, but others don't want to reason with me, so I can only use force to tell them that you must reason with me, otherwise even if you cripple me, I will want you to lose seven points yourself," Canglong sneered
Su Shan finally understood what Canglong meant, and pulled the United States in order to drag them all into the whirlpool of war, and the Prophet Army may end up in a crushing defeat, but the longer it drags on, the more unfavorable it will be for these countries participating in the war, and Iraq will become a crematorium for the multinational force
When NATO countries are wasted by war and the economy in Iraq is sluggish, the people at home will naturally not have enough food and clothing, and the wave of opposition will become bigger and bigger, and NATO may face the possibility of parting ways, just like the original Soviet Union collapsed
And the most profitable are Russia and China, followed by Iraq, an Iraq that can drag down NATO, is definitely enough to be proud of the world, and it will also welcome itself with the real zì yóu and dú lì, and no one can interfere with it
So Canglong said that the Prophet Army may lose, but the Iraqis will not lose, and Canglong said that it is possible, not certain
"This trick is really ruthless," Su Shan looked at Canglong, her eyes were a little puzzled, she never asked what Canglong's ultimate purpose was, this time she also didn't ask, she was waiting for Canglong to tell her, and she also liked to listen to Canglong
"Are you interested in accompanying me on a trip to Iran?" Canglong asked suddenly
"What are you going to do," Su Shan asked unusually
"Watch a show," Canglong said with a smile
Susan nodded and did not refuse, and then the two boarded a private jet and headed to Tehran for an unannounced visit to Iran
Less than an hour after they set off, a guided missile destroyer of the US Navy's Sixth Fleet fired a Tomahawk missile in the Black Sea, and the target was the Northeast Military Region Command of the Prophet Army
At the same time that the Tomahawk missile was launched, the reconnaissance ship of the Russian Black Sea Fleet immediately picked up the signal and sent the information to the Combined Fleet through the transmission system, and Alexander immediately transmitted the information to the Prophet Army and the Territorial Defense Force
"Little meaning" When Shrimp got the information, he just sneered
The Americans never imagined that the first Tomahawk missile of the war would be intercepted by the Iraqi Territorial Defense Force as soon as it entered Iraq
A world-changing Sixth Middle East War began after the explosion of this intercepted missile
