Chapter 644: Offense and Defense
"Urgent gathering!"
Since Iraq's invasion of Kuwait in August, the biggest question facing the situation in the Middle East has been the possible next course for Iraq. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Is it satisfied with the annexation of Kuwait, or does it want to fulfill the sacred mission of Saddam Hussein's great man to revive the Arab world? If the latter were the case, Iraq would probably not be satisfied with merely annexing Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia would be the eye of the storm in the Arab world.
The reason is simple, Saudi Arabia has the largest oil resources in the world. A country that has all the oil resources of Iraq, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia, and has the strength to defend these wealth, is simply a natural **** foundation.
If other countries want to climb to the position of the big hooligan of the United Nations, it is all hellish and demon-level difficulty. Complete epic quests and climb through global lockdowns.
However, if it is such a country, although it is still not easy to achieve the extraordinary, it is at least equivalent to the hell and demon difficulty after using showmethemoney.
In such a country, there will be no possibility of a shortage of money.
Controlling more than 50% of the world's oil exports, which international organization would dare to sanction and blockade such a country?
UN?
Let's play with eggs.
Saudi Arabia, which wants to be masked, circumcised and stoned to death by women, can become a United Nations-certified friend of women's rights.
Does the United Nations have the capacity?
There can be no blockade, there is never a shortage of money, there is Saudi energy, Iraqi manpower, and basic industrial technology, and it is absolutely not difficult to become a developed industrial country.
Moreover, Saddam may have been a little more ambitious, a little authoritarian, and a little more war-like, but at least he was a leader who was willing to develop industry and supported secularization, which alone was better than the royal families of the feudal dynasties of Saudi Arabia and Kuwait.
The revival that the Arab world was longing for seemed to be within reach of Saddam Hussein at this time.
Of course, this TM is completely an illusion, an illusion.
How can it be so easy to become the sixth big hooligan?
The reason why Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait was purely to make up a hole in the Iran-Iraq war, and the revival of the Arab world was used to fool the people below, and Saddam Hussein himself was actually very sober!
He never thought of attacking Saudi Arabia, not to mention that Saudi Arabia after August was already crowded with the US rapid reaction force.
The Airborne Forces and the Rapid Reaction Force, which arrived in airplanes, are the elite of the American elite. Can he put the power of satisfying a war anywhere in the world within 24 hours, and Saddam Hussein can hold on to the tiger's tail?
At this time, Saddam Hussein was still dreaming of making the international world acquiesce to the results of his invasion.
"Mr. Rasil, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. My cousin lives in Khafji, where only a few Saudi troops are stationed and the defenses are very weak. I can guarantee that your army will easily occupy it, and not even a layer of oil skin will be scratched!"
"Asif, my mission is to be stationed here, not to launch an attack on a country that has not declared war!"
Dressed in Iraqi military uniform, Rasile was an officer of the Hammurabi Division, who was ordered to be stationed on the side of the border road between the former Kuwait and Saudi Arabia.
And Asif, who was wearing a robe, was holding a green scripture in his hand, and his identity was naturally obvious.
"The Arab world is about to rise, and this is the closest we have come to the Lord in a thousand years! Lasiel, don't you see?
Asif's expression began to become excited, his hand pointed to the sky, and he asked sharply: "You are still not an MSL, do you want to watch the Arab world lose this last chance? Iraq, Saudi Arabia, and Kuwait will unite, and our MSL will have a strong motherland, and all MSLs will remember your name at that time!"
Rasile's expression was a little tangled, and he was obviously in the midst of a fierce psychological confrontation. On the one hand, it is his faith, on the other hand, it is his duty, on the other hand, it is the general righteousness of the nation, and on the other hand, it is the reason of the soldiers, and this situation is really difficult to choose.
But the reality is that although Allah is farther away than Saddam, the mullahs are closer.
If it weren't for his ungodliness, Asif wouldn't have come to his door. As religious personnel, the mullahs preach and agitate that is the basic skill. In the face of a devout believer, with constant pressure and influence, Rasile's inner resistance only weakened more and more.
Asif took his arm around Rasile's shoulders and, with a sincere gaze and an agitated tone, finally uttered the decisive word.
"Allah, Akbar!"
This sentence seemed to inject great courage into Rasile, so that he shouted with blazing eyes: "Allah, Akbar!"
"Urgent gathering!"
......
"Can we agree with the soldiers, the hypocritical United Nations, trying to stifle the revival of our Arab world by authorizing the Multinational Force by force, the descendants of evil Christians?"
Rasil stood on the ammunition box, his eyes running over the faces of every soldier in the battalion, raised his hands, and questioned loudly.
"Our nation is the heir of the great kingdom of Babylon, a glorious and great ancient civilization, which once stood at the top of the world! Our homeland, with its endless oil and industrious people, has to suffer from poverty and hunger. What are we going to do with the Christians and the Arab traitors who have robbed us of our wealth? Seeing our children starving to death, our women unkempt, and our country undignified?"
"No, we can't!"
I don't know who it was among the soldiers below, and I couldn't hold back the anger in my heart, and I roared in defiance of discipline.
Instead of reprimanding him, Rasil praised him loudly.
"Yes, you're right, you can't go on like this!"
"There is only one way for our country to regain the glory of the Kingdom of Babylon, and that is to grasp the world's oil lifeline! The recovery of Kuwait is only the first step in the rejuvenation of the great motherland.
"The Christians think that their planes and warships can scare us, we want to let them know that this is delusional! We have the courage to attack them, we have AK47s, we have T72s, we have Scud missiles! We are the fourth military power in the world, we have fought a war with Iran for ten years, and every one of our fighters has incomparable courage!"
"Look at what the Americans have? They were defeated by the Chinese in Korea, defeated by the peasants in Vietnam, defeated in Cuba at their doorstep, and did not bargain for anything in Iran, and our great Iraq will once again expose their weak disguise!"
"Airplanes and warships can't hide that the American GIs are a bunch of cowards who are afraid of death, and as soon as we make a charge, the Americans will melt like snow in the sun!"
"I order, the whole battalion of soldiers board the car, target Haifji!"
After Lassile finished speaking, he raised his right hand and pointed his index finger to the sky, shouting.
"Allah, Akbar!"
The soldiers in the camp immediately raised their right index fingers, like a dense forest, and then responded in unison.
"Allah, Akbar!"
Listening to the whole battalion shouting this slogan after him, Rasil waved his big hand, and the soldiers howled and rushed towards the military vehicle. After a short time, one after another, military vehicles and tanks drove out of the barracks one after another.
The border between Kuwait and Saudi Arabia suddenly became very noisy.
Located just 15 kilometers from the Saudi-Kuwaiti border, Khaifji is a town of 35,000 people. The main pillar of the economy is the oil production industry, and the vast majority of the population are oilfield workers.
Kuwait's accusations of stealing its own oil by Iraq are not groundless. The whole of Kuwait sits on a huge oil field, and it is really a pipe that is pumping oil out of itself. Even the surrounding areas of Kuwait can also enjoy this treatment. However, Kuwait extracts more, and this oil field is naturally left less for Iraq and Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia doesn't care, there is no shortage of oil for anything. But this is a good excuse for Iraq.
There is a small oil field next to the town of Kaffji, which is an extension of the Kuwaiti oil field, and the oil extracted belongs to the same underground oil field.
According to Iraq's declared casus belli against Kuwait, the attack on Haifji would be considered a well-known division.
Since the beginning of Operation Desert Shield, the U.S. military has sent its elite troops to Saudi Arabia as quickly as possible to protect the security of this hardcore ally in the Middle East.
As the closest meeting point to the Iraqi forces entrenched in Kuwait, Khaifji certainly received the most attention.
Khafji is stationed in a Saudi National Guard task force, numbering about 500 people, and its combat effectiveness is basically negligible. In addition to this, there is only one company of U.S. Marines, who have simple light infantry armament and lack armored units.
"Kevin, my night vision battery is dead, haven't you received today's supplies?"
"Even if you arrive, it's useless, did you order a night vision device battery? What do you think we are? The combat materials of the Marine Corps need to be ordered by themselves!"
Dais, who had just come out of the military tent, was holding his night vision goggle that had run out of power, and suddenly looked at the gate of the camp in amazement, and asked in some surprise: "Oh, damn it, Kevin, where are the second and third rows going?
"I heard that Riyadh's troops were tight, and the headquarters gave an order that they should rush back to Riyadh to assist in the defense. ”
