"Shelling...... Get down! Ibrahim's face changed when he heard the screaming in the air, and he hurriedly shouted to the soldiers around him, and he himself immediately fell to the ground with his head in his hands. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Bang!"

A mortar shell exploded thirty meters from the Platoon led by Ibrahim, causing dust and a high-speed sprinkling of shrapnel that wounded two soldiers, although inaccurate.

After the shelling, Ibrahim asked the army doctor to treat the wounded while calling his own artillery.

"Lynx calls Paris...... The Bobcats call Paris, we need artillery support...... Coordinates......"

Two minutes after Ibrahim finished his call, there was a terrible whistling of shells rubbing against the air from behind, and he couldn't help but look up, only to see five or six shells following a trajectory overhead, crossing the position and falling far on the position of the armed opposition artillery he had just observed.

"Boom, boom!"

A series of explosions enveloped a hillside 1.5 kilometers away in smoke.

This is the rocket artillery battalion equipped by the 3rd Rapid Reaction Force, which is the port city of Berri in eastern Libya and is the current stronghold of the Libyan opposition.

As a five-nation joint combat force, the Third Rapid Reaction Force was the main force to suppress the opposition at the beginning of the Libyan civil war.

This time, the United States, France and other countries carried out the 'Odyssey Dawn' operation, military intervention in Libya, and the Third Rapid Response Force is attacking Berry, and the battlefield at the moment is located in the southern suburbs of Berry, that is, the farthest place from the sea.

Ibrahim is a platoon commander in the Third Rapid Reaction Force (RF) and belongs to the Somali Defence Forces. Originally, Ibrahim's platoon was a mechanized infantry platoon with four infantry fighting vehicles, but yesterday under the air raids of the United States, France and other Western intervention armies, one was lost, and later the Third Rapid Counterforce had to order some participating units to abandon the use of armored vehicles to reduce the risk of being targeted by aircraft.

"Well done!" Ibrahim observed with a telescope for a while, and found that the artillery position of the opposition forces just now was in shambles, and the surviving opposition soldiers could be seen fleeing in terror in all directions.

"Squad 1 is responsible for covering, and squad 2 is going to kill those traitors." Ibrahim put down his binoculars and commanded his subordinates.

Because the masters behind the opposition are Westerners, although they try their best to propagate Gaddafi, a talented reader, and encourage the people who are dissatisfied with Gaddafi to resist, and the slogan is for the freedom and openness of the Libyan people, but these cannot erase the fact that the opposition colludes with the West to attack the legitimate political axe of Libya, so the Libyan political axe army calls these opponents 'traitors', and within the Third Rapid Reaction Force, soldiers from other countries are also accustomed to following the example of Libyan soldiers to call the opposition armed forces.

Ten Somali soldiers, armed with Star assault rifles, rushed towards the remnants of the opposition who were in a panic because of the cannon fodder covering, under the cover of fire from squad 1.

More than ten minutes later, a fierce burst of gunfire accompanied by the explosion of a grenade came from afar, and soon the opposite side fell silent.

Ibrahim's platoon's position quickly advanced 1.5 kilometers and occupied an artillery position of the original opposition forces, and the main combat mission of their platoon was basically completed today.

In the new position, Ibrahim stepped on the blown tires of a 105 howitzer and looked north with a telescope, where the buildings of the city of Berry were clearly visible, and outside the city, another line of defense of the opposition forces could be faintly seen.

The soldiers were ordered to rest in shifts, and as soon as Ibrahim received the mineral water handed by the guards, he heard the sound of an engine. The soldiers immediately became vigilant, looked around, and soon noticed a jeep coming quickly in the direction behind them.

At present, when Western countries have air supremacy in Libya, any large movable object on the ground is very dangerous, and this kind of military jeep is the target of Western warplanes.

Two soldiers with guns came forward to stop the jeep, and Ibrahim saw that the two soldiers quickly saluted the person in the jeep, and this scene relieved him that the person who came must be his own.

When the visitor appeared in front of Ibrahim, he realized that he was still an acquaintance.

"Counselor Kim?" Ibrahim's face was overjoyed, and he strode up to meet him, the person who came was an Asian, and in the Third Rapid Reaction Force, there were only Koreans in Asians. And this staff officer Kim is a second lieutenant staff officer of the headquarters.

Ibrahim is also a second lieutenant, and both sides have the same rank, although Staff Officer Kim is from the headquarters, but there are relatively few North Korean soldiers in the rapid reaction force, and there are as many Somali soldiers as there are Libyan soldiers.

After a few pleasantries, the two came to a half-bunker fortification that had just been built, which was temporarily the headquarters of the platoon.

"Staff Officer Jin, I wonder if you came to bring the latest orders from the headquarters or something else?" Ibrahim asked directly after handing Counselor Kim a bottle of water.

Because of the support of Western countries, communications in Libya are not secure, and they are in danger of being spied on by the West at any time, so the transmission of important orders and intelligence has resumed the ancient manual transmission method.

In a country like Libya, water is a very important resource, and during the war, the opposition, as a weak party, will not choose to take advantage of the favorable conditions that the political axe army in the east belongs to outsiders to counteract the political axe army, and along the way, Staff Officer Jin has to be nervous about the risk of being discovered by Western planes, and he has to withstand the scorching heat, which is very uncomfortable for him from North Korea, so he will show a very hungry look.

"Commander Khamis has a new order down." Counselor Jin wiped his lips after taking a few sips of water and said. "Originally, I was worried about the strength of your attack, but now it seems that you have completed your mission well."

When he first came in, Staff Officer Jin also looked around and found that it was less than three kilometers away from the city of Berry, and there were traces of battle around, which really surprised him. In his heart, he once again sighed that the Somali soldiers were really different from the African soldiers he knew before, and their combat effectiveness was very strong.

Ibrahim's heart sank, but he didn't expect that Staff Officer Kim came directly to convey Hamis's order. Khamis was the commander of the Third Rapid Reaction Force, and although he was Libyan, he was a real big man for a junior lieutenant like Ibrahim.

"Could it be that attacks from other directions are not progressing well?" Ibrahim was not stupid either, and soon understood what Kim's words did not explain.

In addition to the sea direction, the attack on Berry was carried out in three other directions, that is, the Third Rapid Reaction Force has now completely surrounded Berry and cut off the connection with the rest of Libya. However, on the sea, Libya has no strength to compete with Western countries, otherwise the siege of Berry would not have been very hard.

"Not bad!" Staff Officer Kim glanced up again at the unshaven Somali officer. Ibrahim is about 30 years old, which is already 'old' in the generally young army in Somalia, and he is still a second lieutenant, indicating that Ibrahim must have some shortcomings. In the eyes of Staff Officer Kim, Ibrahim may be the kind of person who is not afraid of death in war but has no sense of culture and strategy.

An 'older ensign' who dares to fight and kill can be quick-witted, which makes Staff Officer Jin sigh again, the Somali military reform has achieved results, and no one can no longer link the Somali army with the African army in the general impression, if that is really the case, then as the opponent of the Somali army, it will definitely suffer a big loss.

"On the battlefields in the east and west, the opposition forces have a strong sense of resistance, and even have a taste of desperate death. In addition, the opposition in these two directions received the most air support from the West, so it was a very hard fight. Commander Khamis sent me to the south mainly to give orders to the southern units to intensify their attacks. Now it can be seen that the opposition and the western forces attach great importance to the east and west directions, one is to connect the eastern region where the opposition is most powerful, and the other is to connect the direction of Benghazi, and the resistance is very fierce, Commander Khamis decided to let the east and west directions start a feint attack from now on, and the southern direction is the main direction of attack, and requires your combat units to take advantage of the current lack of opposition armed strength and the spread of the rescue area of the Western forces to attack the city as soon as possible and occupy Berry. ”

The Libyan political axe army and the opposition are now fighting in almost all of northern Libya, which is also home to the highest concentration of population and cities. At present, only France has sent fighter planes to participate in the war, and US ships have supported it with cruise missiles, while other countries that have expressed their intention to participate in the military intervention in Libya are still gathering troops to participate in the war. So, now is the time when the West's military power is insufficient. With opposition forces in need of support spread across the north and strikes at some of Libya's most important military installations, the only forces available are scattered and the support to Berry is somewhat insufficient.

This is also the reason why the fast reaction forces in the eastern and western directions were bombed by Western fighters, but not in the southern direction. Because Western warplanes cannot fully control the entire battlefield in northern Libya.

Ibrahim didn't expect there to be such a curve, and his vision was not so big. However, there is one thing he understands, that is, the next combat mission of their platoon will be aggravated.

Ibrahim had a headache at the thought of the line of opposition forces in the city of Berry, which he had just observed. With the strength of their platoon, it would be good to hold on in front of the line of defense, and it would undoubtedly be a dream to break through the line of defense.

"Staff Officer Kim, without the assistance of infantry fighting vehicles, do you think that those of us who only have bazookas and rifles will be able to storm the city?" Ibrahim asked with a wry smile and spread out his hands.

Staff Officer Jin smiled and said, "There are no infantry fighting vehicles, but Commander Khamis has also taken into account the difficulties of your front-line combat units, and has decided to transfer all the rocket artillery battalions to your use." ”

"Rocket artillery battalion?" Ibrahim frowned, he didn't look down on the rocket artillery battalion, but the rocket artillery battalion used by the rocket artillery battalion has the risk of being discovered by Western fighters, under normal circumstances, not at a critical time, the front-line troops will not call for rocket artillery support, because then it will be easy to expose the rocket artillery and attract Western fighters.

And the rocket artillery just now destroyed the positions of the armed opposition artillery, but did not attract Western fighters, because there was only one rocket artillery behind Ibrahim's platoon, and Ibrahim was ready to lose in order to pull out the artillery positions in this place.

If rocket artillery is concentrated and used on a large scale, Western fighters will inevitably find out.

"Second Lieutenant Ibrahim, don't you know that the rocket artillery produced in your country can be separated and carried and used by individual soldiers?" Staff Officer Jin took another sip of water and said with a smile.

Ibrahim patted his head when he heard this, and understood the meaning of Counselor Kim's words.

…… Kurdish mountains in northeastern Iraq, stronghold of the Iraq Liberation Front.

When Saddam Hussein heard Faisal's prompt, they all began to search their heads for what had happened in the east of Kabul, the capital of Afghanistan, on March 8, two years earlier.

Soon, Jabr's eyes flickered, and he stretched out his hand and pointed at Faisal with a frightened expression, "Are you talking about that 'nuclear attack'?" ”

The words 'nuclear attack' struck Saddam's heart so hard that his sturdy body shook slightly.

Although two years have passed, the nuclear bomb attack on the Bagram air base of the US military in Afghanistan shocked the whole world, causing a total of more than 10,000 casualties among NATO troops, including the US military, and the largest air base of the US military in Afghanistan was also completely destroyed under the nuclear bomb.

So far, there is a clear answer to that nuclear attack, some people claim that the Taliban forces did it, but some people immediately refute that the Taliban forces could not make a nuclear bomb. Some people also suggested that the nuclear bomb was dropped from the collapse of the Soviet Union, but some people immediately refuted that according to the data of the explosion of the nuclear bomb, it can be concluded that the yield of this nuclear bomb is not large, and there will be no such small tactical nuclear bomb among the nuclear bombs lost by the former Soviet Union.

Americans are nervous, the world is nervous, and now two years later, ordinary people may have forgotten it, but many people still remember it clearly.

If it was when he was in power, Saddam would certainly not have paid so much attention to this matter, but now it is a period of despair, and the relationship between Saddam Hussein and the Taliban forces in Afghanistan who are suffering from the same illness is very special. But Saddam Hussein did not get any information about the bomb from the Taliban.

And today, Faisal, who came from Somalia, mentioned this incident, does it mean that there is a connection?

Saddam Hussein knew very well that the Somali Chinese commander had a close relationship with Omar, and the two sides were still 'sworn brothers'. And Somalia is a mysterious nuclear-armed country, and it seems to make sense to say that Li Mo provided nuclear bombs to the Taliban.

Thinking of this, Saddam Hussein's heart sank, Faisal deliberately mentioned this matter, is it just to verify his guess? He is well aware of the crisis for Somalia if this leaks out. The Americans have certainly not given up on finding the source of the nuclear bomb, and if it turns out to be related to Somalia, the Americans will not be able to fight the Third OECD with limited restraint as they are now.

"I wonder if Mr. Saddam Hussein has a connection with al-Qaeda?" Faisal changed his tune and didn't mention the nuclear bomb again.

Saddam Hussein looked tense and said vaguely, "We have no connection with al-Qaeda. ”

Saddam Hussein still wants to return to power, and of course he will not admit that he has anything to do with terrorist organizations. That will inevitably become a stain and bring hidden dangers to his future power. A qualified politician will not make mistakes in such matters.

"That's a shame." Faisal suddenly said with regret on his face, "As far as I know, Comrade bin Laden has several outstanding nuclear physics experts under his command, and the nuclear bomb in Afghanistan seems to have something to do with these experts. ”

Saddam Hussein was a little confused when he heard this, and he didn't know what this incident had to do with them. If Somalia supplies Saddam with nuclear bombs, there is no need to go around in circles about the nuclear physicists under bin Laden.

"Mr. Faisal, if you have anything to say, please be straightforward, as a member of the world's 'anti-US front', our side will never do anything to leak secrets, and anything you say will only be known to the three of us." Jabr's mind moved, he saw some clues, and quickly interjected.

Jabr's words really made Faisal's face relax, and the caution in his eyes disappeared. This satisfied Saddam Hussein and gave Gabr an appreciative look.

"Mr. Saddam, my country believes that if the Iraqi people want to defeat the aggressor and the lackeys of those aggressors, they must have a stronger determination and some special means to achieve this goal." Faisal said with some hesitation, "When conventional methods cannot make the aggressor understand the pain, we need some unconventional methods, to make the aggressor understand that other people's wealth is always someone else's, and vainly trying to plunder by force will have to bear extremely serious and unacceptable costs and consequences." I think the Taliban are more decisive than your organization. ”

If the three Saddam Hussein hadn't understood Faisal's words, they would have committed suicide. It's one thing to understand, it's another thing to accept.

The thought of that particular way of speaking calmly in Faisal's mouth made all three of them feel a chill. It is worthy of the subordinate of the 'East African Demon King', and he has no scruples and has the courage to fight hard.

"Jabeur, I see that Mr. Faisal is also a little tired, you take him to rest, you have to treat him like a VIP, don't neglect the distinguished guests." Saddam Hussein made eye contact with the two subordinates for a while, then coughed and said.

Faisal understood that his proposal Saddam Hussein still needed to be considered and discussed, so he didn't speak, and followed Justur out of the cave indifferently.
