"Report! The reconnaissance plane found that many Persian oil tankers were carrying oil ...... on the island of Hark."

Iraq, Basra Front Command, General Qasim listened to the report of the intelligence staff officer, and his brows furrowed tightly.

The island of Hark was bombed by the air force only two years ago, and although there are a lot of missiles in the country, the president does not want to attack that side with missiles, after all, the price of a missile is not cheap, and it is the way to bomb the cities of the Persians and make them sit down at the negotiating table quickly to reach a cease-fire agreement.

"Report to the president and wait for orders. Qasim did not rush to order warplanes to bomb the oil ports that the Persians had repaired.

Their crude oil is being shipped out in a steady stream, which can be exchanged for more weapons and equipment.

It is impossible that the southern front of the Persians did not know the news, but did not send warplanes to bomb, and even the artillery on the Faw peninsula did not fire at the tankers loading oil at the entrance to the Abdullah waterway.

Everybody has to make money.

Perhaps, this is the best?

It would not be good if the Persians were to bomb rashly and cause the Persians to fight back frantically.

In retaliation, the Persians mobilized more than 150 warplanes to launch a frenzied retaliatory bombing campaign that destroyed two of the most important oil fields in northern Iraq, the Kirkuk and Mosul oil fields.

Finally, it is only now that the production of the two oil fields has been gradually resumed.

"By the way, Commander, the tankers that entered Hark Island are all flying crab flags......" The intelligence staff officer was about to leave when he suddenly thought of the situation reported by the pilot of the reconnaissance plane.

General Qasim frowned, "The mercenaries on those tankers who help us carry oil are also escorting?"

"Yes, if they are equipped according to the standards of escort for us, there are at least more than 5 avant-garde anti-aircraft missiles on board no tanker...... "the intelligence staff officer affirmed.

"Report the situation in detail. After a moment's thought, Kasim knew that he couldn't order this directly.

The stupid big wood, who owes a lot of debts, is now more and more irritable, he has agreed to a truce, shakes hands with the Persians, everyone does not fight, and can earn a small amount of money with peace of mind, but Khomeini does not agree.

He continued to fight, but there was no progress, and he was overwhelmed by the huge military spending every day.

"The Persians have also started to transport oil on the island of Halk?" Silly Damu was furious when he heard the news.

In 1984~1985, Persia estimated oil revenue of 23.5 billion US dollars, and Hark Island paid 20 billion US dollars.

Therefore, Silly Damu sent the air force to bomb the island in the first place.

Even warplanes were constantly sent to bomb the opponent's oil tankers around there, and few oil tankers dared to come forward to transport oil in normal times.

Now it's good that there is another large-scale oil operation, when the combat effectiveness of the Iraqi air force is not there?

"Send the air force, and then blow up this island for me!" Silly Damu gave the order to bomb after receiving an affirmative reply.

The Persian air force was too small to deal with the Iraqi air force, and the fighters deployed in the south had to deal with several other countries.

"Your Majesty, you can't bomb!" Ibrahim, who got the news, rushed over to stop the president's order.

"Ibrahim, it's none of your business......" The president was in a bad mood, "If the Persians get money, they will get more weapons and equipment, and it will be more difficult for our war to end......"

"Your Majesty, it's harder to end the war if it's blown up. At present, we are carrying oil from the Baizur waterway to the Abdullah waterway, and the Persian artillery on the Faw Peninsula has nothing to stop us, and if we bombard their oil port, the consequences will be unimaginable!" Ibrahim knew that Shekai was not threatening him blindly.

The other side dared to risk the attack of the Persians to transport Iraqi oil, the price was low, and it was impossible to give up the Persian crude oil.

Perhaps, the price of crude oil for the Persians is lower.

If it really blows up, the relationship will be big.

But he had no way to tell the president what he was doing.

"They didn't dare to shell the oil tankers, but the oil tankers were ......in Kuwaiti waters," Silly Damu looked at his relatives, not wanting to give up bombing the Persian oil ports just like that.

Without money, the war could not be fought, so they naturally agreed not to fight.

"Your Majesty, they even sank several Kuwaiti oil tankers, and even more merchant ships...... The Persians have a lot of strengthened air defense, and they also have a large number of individual anti-aircraft missiles from China in their hands!"

"Then arrange for warplanes to bomb their oil tankers!" Silly Damu also knew that the Persians had placed most of the country's Hawk medium-range anti-aircraft missiles and Naki long-range anti-aircraft missiles around their most important oil ports.

These missile systems were originally arranged to defend against the Soviet air force on the other side of the Caspian Sea after the Pahlavi dynasty mixed with the United States; now that the Pahlavi has been overthrown, the Persians have fallen out with the European and American countries, and they are very close to the Soviet Union, so those anti-aircraft missiles are naturally no longer necessary.

Just as the Persians did not dare to come and bomb the well-defended Baghdad.

Fighters, now stupid big wood is not able to afford to lose.

"There's nothing wrong with blowing up their oil tankers, right?" Now Ibrahim's weight in Silly Damu's heart is getting heavier and heavier.

A few days ago, Ibrahim was promoted from major general to lieutenant general because he found someone to help them transport oil by sea, although the price was low, but the quantity was not small, and the funding gap for the purchase of equipment was effectively solved.

Even Colonel Harry Mosan, who was involved in this matter, followed suit, and stepped from colonel to one of the few generals in Iraq.

"Your Majesty, if there is no escort, naturally there is no problem, I am afraid that they will also find someone from the River Crab Mercenary Group to escort them. Those damn mercenaries, only take money!"

"They escort the Persians?" Silly Damu was stunned, "how can they do that?"

For the river crab mercenary group, Silly Damu is no stranger.

Many of the elite members of his presidential guard are trained by the river crab mercenary group, and a group of key personnel are selected to Tanzania for training every year, for which the Iraqi government pays up to $18 million a year for training.

"They only recognize money. According to sources, they are now cooperating with Saudi Prince Sultan's Peninsula Force...... "Ibrahim explained the situation. "If you use anti-ship missiles against tankers, it's really wasteful, and it's not very easy to sink them. It can only lead to more crazy retaliation, and our first priority now is to get more funds and accumulate strength......"

The President saw a few days ago the video of the soldiers of the River Crab Mercenary Regiment destroying the anti-ship missiles launched by the Persians with individual anti-aircraft missiles and destroying the Persian armed patrol boats with rockets on the Sea Giant.

Silly Damu is like accumulating power now.

If the Persians don't sit down and talk again, then they will fight back fiercely, take back the Fau Peninsula, and even if they don't sit down and talk at that time, they will not be afraid of bombardment every day.

"Then don't bomb the tankers they escort!" the president finally relented.

If the other side does not blow up their oiled ship, then it will not blow up the other side's port.

These bastards of the River Crab Mercenary Group, with anti-aircraft missiles in their hands, can effectively threaten most of the fighters in Iraq who can carry out ship attacks.

So, on the orders of the president, the Iraqi Air Force took off from the southern airfield again and searched for oil tankers in the direction of the Persian Gulf to help the Persians transport crude oil.

In the vast sea, how can you tell who a huge oil tanker is transporting oil for?

Look at the flags fluttering at the top of the ship's mast.

Those flying the crab flag, they don't blow up, as long as they are sure that it is not a freighter that transports them and other allies, it is within the range of attack.

"Are you making an appointment with both countries? and they attack cargo ships and oil tankers without your escort at the same time?" Thomson shook the red wine glass in his hand slightly, and looked at Liao Dong meaningfully.

Liao Dong smiled and shook his head, "If we really have this ability, what are we doing mercenaries?"

Only a very small number of people know the inside story of this matter.

No matter how pervasive the CIA's intelligence agents are, it is impossible for them to know what is going on.

"We need to cooperate, and I need to know why, so that we can convince the White House to agree to cooperate with an NGO like yours that has a huge armed force...... Thomson knows it's not so easy to get the other side to say.

Liao Dong didn't explain, but asked his subordinates to show Thomson the complete video.

"Major, that's why we have so much business. Now cooperating with the defense forces of the peninsula, although there are not a few warships, but our fighter planes are about to arrive, as long as we encounter a call for help, it will take less than half an hour, our fighter planes will arrive!" Liao Dong introduced the situation.

Even if the CIA people don't accept such an outcome, there is no way to do it.

"Major, even if you American merchant ships fly our flag, our mercenaries will provide security services in all directions. It's cheap, only 50 cents per ton!"

The other party sent it to the door, and Liao Dong naturally didn't let it go.

Thomson shook his head, "No need, we have warships to escort us." But thank you very much for keeping the crude oil energy of the Persian Gulf flowing......"

"On the sea of the Persian Gulf, there are crab flags flying everywhere, and everyone can earn their own money with peace of mind and no longer drag the hindrances of world peace, isn't it?" Liao Dong grinned.

The Americans would not fly the flag of mercenaries on their merchant ships, and this was clear to Liao Dong at the very beginning.

It is also one of the two superpowers in the world, and if it does, it will not be able to save face......

In just a few days, both Persian pilots and armed patrol boats and Iraqi pilots found it difficult to find merchant ships that did not fly crab flags......

The freshwater divine beast that Xie Kai created actually began to run rampant in the sea of the Persian Gulf in the Middle East.

For a time, the whole world knew that this crab with teeth and claws had made outstanding contributions to global economic development and world peace......

"What's urging, the Americans are coming, can we make them not come!" Xie Kai was overjoyed when he saw more and more steamers hanging crab flags. But China sent five or six telegrams a day urging him to return to China, which made him really speechless.
