Chapter 083, left and right

When Army Group South and Army Group North each reached their intended location, the entire Prophet Army formed a siege of Kabul, the capital of Afghanistan

Compared with the Prophet Army fighting in Iraq, their combat effectiveness in high-altitude Afghanistan this time is indeed much weaker than before, but their morale is much higher than that of the US military, from the emergence of terrorist attacks to the logistics support of the Afghan National Army, they have a sense of smooth sailing

At the same time, at the presidential palace in Kabul, Ariza summoned all his aides and senior defense officials to discuss the next move, and for Ariza, the speed of the Prophet's assault was simply jaw-dropping, and most of the U.S. bases were eliminated with almost no fighting

Therefore, they must discuss the current situation, and it can be said that the most advantageous thing in this war is that their national army has accepted a lot of US military bases and weapons they dream of without firing a single shot, although many weapons are not yet usable, and these talents can be armed after training

Ariza looked at his staff and said, "The Prophet's attack is in agreement with us, and once they take Bagram Air Base, they will garrison troops in Afghanistan to replace the original American troops."

Hearing this, there was a lot of discussion in the conference center, and one of the officers said: "Although the Prophet Army has the same faith and blood as us, I think we should learn from those Chinese and reap the benefits of fishermen."

"Yes, when both the U.S. and the Prophet Army are defeated, we should send troops to expel them all from Afghanistan and restore Afghanistan's independence in the true sense of the word," said most of the officers present who belonged to Afghanistan's former Northern Alliance

This organization is the Taliban's sworn enemy, and in fact, before the Taliban came to power, the Northern Alliance was very dissatisfied with the Americans, because the Taliban armed forces were supported by the Americans, just like the Saddam regime in Iraq

It was the Americans who supported them, and it was the Americans who fought them, so although the Northern Alliance later cooperated with the Americans and established this regime, they did not like the Americans, or they did not like any invaders

"There are only three bases left for the US military, one is the Jalalabad base next to Pakistan, the other is Faizabad in the northeast, and the last one is naturally the headquarters of the US military in Afghanistan, Bagram Air Base, and these three bases are too far away and the two bases of Jalalabad and Faizabad are difficult to deal with Bagram Air Base," said a general at this time. So I think it's time for us to put pressure on the Prophet Army, if they get to capture Bagram Air Base, they can easily crush our army, we can't allow such a strong foreign army to exist in Afghanistan."

However, Defense Minister Behsoud disagreed with the general, and he stood up and said: "Although the Prophet Army seems to have the upper hand, no matter which side is now capable of defeating us, I think the Prophet Army is probably still at a disadvantage, in the Bagram Air Base of the US Army has the largest number of American and British troops in Afghanistan, and they obviously have more planes than the Prophet Army, most of them are fixed-wing aircraft and drones, so I think that putting pressure on the Prophet Army now may lead to their total collapse."

"According to the intelligence we have obtained, most of the Prophet Army Army Aviation Regiment is equipped with helicopters and a small number of reconnaissance drones, although they have more than 500 tanks and more than 300 armored vehicles, which can face fixed-wing aircraft, a small number of air defense weapons are difficult to form an advantage over the US military, and they only have 20,000 people, but in Bagram Air Base, there are 50,000 US-British coalition forces," the intelligence minister also said, "Once the US military holds the Bagram Air Base, the entire Prophet Army will be trapped in Afghanistan, and then we will do the Americans a great favor." ”

"Do you have any better proposals?" Halipur, who held the rank of chief of general staff of the National Army, had a better impression of the Americans than the sudden attack of the Prophet Army

Defense Minister Bekhsud suddenly said: "Continuing to fight the Taliban forces, our intelligence network has mastered many strongholds of the Taliban forces, and now they have suffered heavy losses, we can destroy this great enemy without much effort"

Hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement, and it was clear that the Taliban were helping the Prophet's army, so Ariza finally decided to take the opportunity to completely eliminate this old enemy and sit back and watch the tiger fight, and when they were almost finished, he would come to clean up the pieces and restore the true independence of Afghanistan, at which point his prestige would rise to a terrible height

Zabol

Canglong looked at the battle report in front of him, comparing it to the map, this was already the second day of Jabbar's promise to capture Afghanistan in four days, and there were still more than two days left in the afternoon

In contrast to the current situation, Iranian officers are somewhat unoptimistic about the Prophet's Army, and the Afghan National Army has been left and right, and has not expressed direct support for the Prophet's army's advance

Of course, Afghan President Ariza did not indicate that he would support the Prophet Army when he negotiated with them, but only signed an agreement on the Prophet Army, and if the Prophet Army could expel the US military, then he agreed to join the Triple Alliance to form the Quadruple Alliance, so they can't blame Ariza for being left and right

But Alawit is a little anxious, if the Prophet Army fails, the new Iraq will also fail, and then Iran will once again face a more serious diplomatic situation

So it was a risky move, and to this day Alaveit doesn't understand why the prophet used Jabbar, although Jabbar's early decisions were correct and achieved unimaginable results, but the current situation is difficult to say

He had been waiting for the dragon to open his mouth and let the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps intervene in the war, in the words of leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, if the Prophet took the initiative to speak, he would play a big role in their future negotiations, and the Revolutionary Guards would also control the future lifeline of Afghanistan at the same time

Although the two countries are allies, political rivalries will still arise, everyone knows that the prophet wants all allies to recognize his prophetic status, but it is difficult for them to adapt to the legitimate status of this prophet, after all, this is the twenty-first century

Once Iran recognizes his prophetic status, the leadership of the Revolutionary Guards will be much lowered, and they will be centered on Iraq in the future, which they do not want to see

It's a pity that Canglong was not troubled by the current situation, and he was silent for a long time, and he suddenly said: "General Alavet, I hope you can maintain the logistics of the Prophet's Army, and I don't want to have problems in this regard."

Alawit nodded a little strangely: "Are you going back to Iraq?"

"No, I'm going to Afghanistan," Canglong smiled, and without waiting for him to ask about the situation, he and Su Shan left the command headquarters and took a helicopter directly to Kandahar, an important town in western Afghanistan

He did not stop too much in Kandahar, but instead flew to Ghazni, just over 100 kilometers from the Afghan capital, on a National Army plane

When he learned that Canglong himself had come over, Jabbar immediately rushed back from the front line, he saluted Canglong with a tired face, and then said, "Prophet, what are you doing here?"

"Help you solve difficulties" Canglong is very direct

"Solve the difficulty" Jabbar was stunned for a moment, he quickly thought of something, the movement of the national army made him very uneasy, although he could bypass the capital and directly attack Bagram Air Base, but he had to leave the Afghan National Army in the capital behind, although their equipment was not very good, and their combat effectiveness was not good, but in such a war of similar strength, sometimes an ant can affect the battle situation

"The Taliban forces have been hit hard by the National Army, right?" Canglong asked suddenly

"Yes, although the Afghan National Army did not exchange fire with us, but it was very hostile to us, and the weapons and equipment captured in the base were to be sealed and shipped to Iraq, but after we left, the Afghan Army used force against our soldiers and forcibly took away the weapons we captured, and they said that in Afghanistan this is their thing" Jabbar was angry, this bandit-like behavior made him intolerable, if it weren't for the American army, I'm afraid he would have ordered the armored troops to fire at these damn national troops

"Has the Afghan capital contacted you?" Canglong didn't care, just asked

Jabbar shook his head: "I sent people to Kabul to negotiate, but they detained our people, so I really want to attack Kabul now"

"With the current situation, you wouldn't want to provoke an enemy, would you?" asked Canglong calmly

Abdul-Jabbar nodded, "But what if they stab us in the back?"

"I'm here to solve this problem for you, you can rest assured that you can deal with the US military," Canglong gave him a look of trust

Saying that, Canglong and Susan were about to leave the camp, but Jabbar suddenly thought of something, chased after him, and said, "Prophet, you don't plan to go to Kabul to negotiate with Aliza in person, do you?"

"No, I'm not going to negotiate, I'm just going to make them fulfill their obligations and return our spoils as well," Canglong said without looking back

"But..... But you..... Your safety goes like this in case they .........."

"You are already the commander of a 20,000-strong unit, don't be so mother-in-law, mother-in-law, my safety, I will consider it myself, you should think about how to deal with the American planes now, if you can't take Afghanistan within four days, and if you are pleaded with many people, I will also send you to the gallows," Canglong finished speaking, and got into a military vehicle with Su Shan

Abdul-Jabbar stared blankly at the direction in which they were leaving, but soon he became firm again: "I won't let you down, I won't."
