Chapter 885: Burning

While Iraq is grieving the devastation of the loss of the desert in the southwest, the Coalition Command in Riyadh, the Saudi capital, is a different story........

"Five hours ago, the coalition forces dispatched eight squadrons of warplanes to launch a military operation codenamed 'Ace' against the Iraqi army entrenched in the southwest!"

In the No. 4 hall of the headquarters, Air Force Colonel Christ, senior adviser of the Allied Forces Command, wearing a brand-new desert camouflage combat uniform, stood tall on a temporary high platform, looking around at the packed reporters in the audience with a victorious attitude, and his voice was sonorous and loud:

"In an hour and a half of air strikes, we destroyed a total of 2 air defense command centers, 4 field airfields, 8 anti-aircraft missile positions, 17 missile fixed launchers, 22 defense nodes, please look here........."

As he spoke, Colonel Crist nodded to a staff officer in the corner, then pulled out the guide stick next to him, and walked to the monitor on the side, with a flash of signal, a black and white image with a cross target appeared on the wide monitor, and the reporters in the field all opened their eyes wide, and then they understood the outline of the building on the image, which was obviously a fixed defensive position of the Iraqi army, during which there were several military trucks coming in and out, and everything around them could be seen clearly from a condescending angle:

"Oh my God, it's so clear!"

"Yes, yes, even the vehicles and people can be seen clearly. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Is it a satellite? If so, it's incredible!"

"I don't know, but whether it's or not, with this kind of reconnaissance imaging technology alone, the United States is already proud of the world. ”

"Yes, yes, it seems that Iraq has lost this battle........."

..........

When such a clear image of the attack was first displayed in front of journalists from all over the world, it was like dropping a bombshell on their hearts, and in an instant, the noisy discussion was like a shock wave from the explosion, completely submerging Hall 4........

Colonel Crist did not stop the gossip from the audience, but with a gentlemanly smile, looking at the shock and exclamation of the reporters in the audience, he was indescribably proud, this is the "program" he carefully prepared for reporters from all over the world, in order to shock the world with the unprecedented combat power of the US military, it is obvious that his goal has been achieved, but it is not enough........

"Ahem~~~ Everyone, please be quiet. ”

Seeing that the effect of the "hors d'oeuvres" was achieved, Colonel Crister naturally couldn't let his ears suffer anymore, so he coughed and stopped the noise in the room, so the entire No. 4 hall returned to silence, and countless eyes focused on the big screen that flashed brightly, Colonel Christ looked around at everyone, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile knowingly, so he raised the guide stick in his hand, pointed to the building in the middle and said loudly:

"This is the air defense command center located in the eastern part of the southwestern desert, and at the same time it is the command center of the entire southwestern desert of Iraq, but it is ........."

As soon as Christ's words fell, a cloud of darkness appeared on the screen, and after a while, the darkness fell rapidly, and the sharp-eyed reporter couldn't help but exclaim:

"Oh my God....... It's ......."

Before he finished speaking, he saw that the rugby-shaped object, under the guidance of the bull's-eye, smashed down on the center of the Iraqi air defense command center, and a few seconds later, a terrifying burst of gunpowder suddenly rose from the obviously reinforced air defense command center........

Seeing such a precise bombing, everyone in the audience suddenly fell silent, not because they didn't want to say anything, but they really didn't know what language to use to describe this kind of bombardment like a hundred steps through the poplar, even if they were reporters who were familiar with words and used to playing with the pen.

"This is caused by the latest GBU-24 laser-guided bomb developed by the United States, with a weight of 2,500 pounds, a highly penetrating warhead design, and accurate laser guidance, coupled with the launch of the unique F-117A 'Nighthawk' stealth fighter, which has created such a precise strike effect.........

"Laser-guided bombs?"

"F-117 'Nighthawk'?"

"Stealth fighters?"

"Oh my God, is this still a war of earthlings?"

If the previous "hors d'oeuvres" were a bombshell, then the entire strike process and the use of weapons and equipment just described by Crist were a nuclear bomb with a powerful yield, and the well-informed reporters present were so scorched on the outside that they could not even say the most basic discussion, and they could only ask in amazement and inexplicable words.

Colonel Crist was very satisfied with this effect, which was not only an affirmation of the "trump card" operation he commanded, but also a propaganda of the strength of the US military, and it was also a disguised arms advertisement, whether it was public or private, he Crist could be described as fame and fortune, watching the reporters who gradually recovered from the shock, regardless of the use of cameras, cameras, and notebooks to compile enough news releases to sweep the headlines, Colonel Crist finally laughed from the bottom of his heart.........

"Well! Crist did a great job!"

Parterson Flynn watched Colonel Christ and the reporters on the TV with ease of answering, nodded with satisfaction, and then picked up a glass of home-brewed wine next to him and took a sip:

"If there were people in the army who had such brains as Colonel Christ, then our army, our country, would be much stronger. ”

After Flynn finished speaking, he smiled with satisfaction, but the scar that was pulled was reflected in the light, making this harmless smile look extremely hideous, and then he put down the wine glass in his hand, and continued to look at the video of the press conference of the army on TV, and I don't know how long later, his lips opened lightly as if talking to himself:

"Is everything done over there?"

"Yes, sir!"

As soon as Flynn finished speaking, the old butler Friedman came out of the dim corner like a ghost, bowed slightly to Flynn, and replied respectfully:

"It's all done!"

"Are they satisfied?"

Friedman smiled and nodded: "Of course, 150 F-16 fighters are what they dream of, and now that they have sharp weapons in hand, they once again occupy the generation advantage in the comparison of military forces between the two shores, what else is there to be dissatisfied with?"

"Well, it's good to be satisfied!" Flynn smiled, lifted Erlang's legs, picked up his wine glass and leaned comfortably on the sofa: "If you have time, tell them that if you behave well, I will continue to give them a mouth, not to mention more than a hundred fighters, even better weapons and equipment than this is not impossible!"

"Okay, I'll let them know when I have time!"

"It's also to make up for the loss of their sabotage of the mainland intelligence network this time, oh, by the way, has the 'Deep Throat' hidden in the Chinese military been exposed?"

"No!" the old butler Friedman shook his head, with a burst of joy on his face: "He is very hidden, and he is not responsible for delivering information, as for the destroyed intelligence network, it is also a self-sacrifice made by the T region in order to cover the 'Deep Throat', so as to confuse the direction of the Chinese military's investigation, obviously they have achieved the intended goal!"

"They are very smart, this 'deep throat' is very important, it must be protected, I believe he will play a decisive role again at a critical moment, with him, China ......... Hmph, but that's .........."

"The T region is also aware of this, so it would rather sacrifice three intelligence networks that have been lurking for many years to keep this 'Deep Throat', and we are also cooperating on the Gulf front, so no matter which channel we look at, the intelligence information in our hands is obtained from the 'Falcon' air defense missile system equipped by Saudi Arabia, after all, the value of the "Deep Throat" is really immeasurable. ”

"So meet all his requirements!"

"Understand, his son will arrive in the United States next week, and the school will be funded by you, Stanford University, and we will pay for all the expenses, and his wife will also join our joint venture company on the mainland, and everything will be paid well. ”

"Good!"

Flynn finally nodded with satisfaction, and then stood up with the wine glass, stretched out his hand and patted the old butler who was slightly bowed: "Tell the CEO of the 'Thor' company who is sad all day long, produce more laser-guided bombs, you must know that it is a rare golden egg!"

After speaking, and before the old butler could reply, Flynn walked towards the end of the corridor, and Friedman saw Flynn walking away, and just as he wanted to turn away, Flynn's rough voice came faintly from the end of the corridor:

"Those two people are already locked in the basement, I'll leave it to you, do a good job!"

Hearing this, Friedman's palpitating cold sweat couldn't help but swell all over his body, bowed again, and replied aloud in the direction where Flynn had disappeared:

"Yes, sir!"

Half an hour later, in the dark room of the mountain behind Baierdero, two bodies wrapped in body bags were thrown into the high-temperature boiler for winter heating by several black-clothed men like dead dogs.

The old butler Friedman squatted by the boiler to reconfirm the identities of the two, but he did not have any schadenfreude in his heart, but gave birth to a chill, because how the two people who had just died in his hands were caught here from distant Iraq, and even he, a close butler who had followed Flynn for twenty years, did not know, so he glanced at the manor not far away, and waved his hand with a complicated expression:

"Burn it!"

Thousands of miles away, Iraq said the same thing from the mouth of the seriously wounded Lu Weijun, and immediately two Iraqi soldiers held flamethrowers and pulled the trigger on the high raised haystack, and a moment later, the pillar of fire rose into the sky, completely engulfing the unformed mass of corpses on the top.........
