Chapter 033, The Revelation of Allah

The provincial government was arguing, but Canglong listened to the snow leopard report on the recent situation of the Prophet Army in the branch of Longteng International.

"The total strength of our army is 3,000 now, and excluding the air force and navy, it is 2,500 people, which is the division of all combatable personnel." Snow Leopard calmly said that the first thing they did after the Basra security forces were integrated was to disarm.

Basra has a total of two police battalions, a combat battalion and a tank battalion, with a total of 6,000 people, such a huge number, for a province in Iraq, is already a lot, after all, it has just experienced a war, everything is being rebuilt, and it is difficult to maintain such a small province to support so many people.

The land area of Iraq as a whole is only the size of a medium-sized province in China, and the oil economy on which it depends has not yet recovered, and it is already overspending to support 6,000 troops.

Without the assistance of the United States, it is estimated that it would be very good to be able to afford one or two thousand people.

The reason why Canglong was disarmed was not because he had no money to feed these people, mainly because they were all trained by the Americans, and the first priority of the Prophet Army was loyalty, followed by strength, and without loyal soldiers, it would be useless to be able to fight.

So in the first time, Canglong cut half of the number, the combat battalion of 1,500 people, only 500 people qualified to join the Prophet's Army, as for the tank battalion has been paralyzed, so it was directly eliminated by Canglong, even if it is not paralyzed, Canglong feels that in modern warfare, raising these tanks does not do much effect, at best, it is only used to suppress the people, but now everyone in Basra believes in him as a prophet, so there is no need to raise tanks.

After all, once a war with the central government or the U.S. military starts, tanks will only become the target of the Baghdad Air Force, and Canglong will not do such a thankless deal.

As for the two police battalions, one in Basra City and the other in Kada Prison, because the prison was destroyed, Canglong directly cut half of it, and the rest was placed under the jurisdiction of the militia command.

Of course, the other units that were dismantled, Canglong did not let them idle, but put them all into the militia sequence, which was under the unified jurisdiction of the militia headquarters, so the current militia is the police, and they are also soldiers in wartime, and when there is no war, they are all organized as workers and peasants.

It's just that no one expected that Canglong actually sent Hei Wuchang to be the commander of the militia, and of course Bai Wuchang also assisted.

As for the elite of the Prophet Army, Badr continued to lead it, the deputy commander was Vivien, and the other members of Team B all became military advisors, and did not hold any real positions in the Prophet Army, but they were responsible for training the Prophet Army.

"The airfields of the Air Force have all been converted into civil aviation, and the Coast Guard is only responsible for coastal patrols and protecting the fishing boats that Basla pulls out of the sea, and cannot go to war with the navies of any neighboring country without my orders." Canglong said calmly.

"Changed to civil aviation?" The snow leopard was very puzzled by Canglong's decision, "Why don't we establish an air force?" ”

"Is it time to create an air force?" Canglong asked rhetorically, "The Americans have a lot of air bases in the Middle East, if we play the brand of the Air Force, once the war starts, the airport will be the main target of the Americans, can you play the US Air Force?" ”

"Yes!" The snow leopard nodded, "But we just died down, and it's not a matter if we don't advance or retreat!" ”

"The important thing now is not to build up armaments, with the current situation in Iraq, we have no way to compete with the Americans, and if we build up, we will only become the target of the Americans, why spend money on this, but we also have our advantages, all the popular hearts of the people in Basra are now with me, and what we have to do is to continue to expand this advantage." Canglong said calmly.

"But you can't be unarmed at all." Snow leopard said.

"No, the people are our armament." Canglong said calmly, "By the way, how is the contact with Alidaiyi?" ”

"You said that those anti-aircraft missiles have begun to be transported from the border, and the assembly plant has been established, but there is a lack of manpower to operate them, and now the base is training missile troops." Snow leopard said.

"Well, negotiate with Alidaii as soon as possible, let him bring more anti-aircraft missiles, the more things the better, the only thing we need to build up now is the missile force." Canglong said calmly.

"These missiles are all gratuitous?" The snow leopard looked strange, because Vivian was in charge of this matter, he was only responsible for receiving, although it was not a large missile, but it was enough to build a small air defense system, and it was okay to fight a helicopter, but if you want to fight an American fighter, it would be indebted.

"You think so beautifully, Ali Dayi provides us with missiles now, and we will definitely need to repay them in the future." Canglong frowned, "Although I am friends with him, after all, he is behind Iran." ”

"By the way, Vivian said that in a few days it seems that Iran will send a special envoy to discuss cooperation with us." The snow leopard suddenly thought of something.

"Look, this is coming!" Canglong is not surprised at all, now that Iraq is in civil strife, neighboring countries want to get a piece of the pie, "Soon not only Iran will come, but Turkey, Jordan and Saudi Arabia next to it will send special envoys to listen to our movements, but the only ones bordering us are Iran and Kuwait, it is not strange that Iran sent a special envoy, Kuwait will definitely not send a special envoy over, this is a regime supported by the Americans, but what we have to wait for is by no means the envoys of these countries!" ”

"You're waiting for the ** over there, right?" The snow leopard guessed something.

"In today's world, who else is the only one who dares to shout with the Americans, except for Russia?" Canglong smiled.

Then he asked his assistant to prepare the car, and then went to the provincial government, and by this time there had been more than two hours of arguing inside.

"If you don't come, they're going to start fighting!" Vivien glanced at Canglong angrily and said.

Canglong after the disguise looks completely different from usual, but at least no one will think that he is the president of that Dragon Teng International, here he is just a prophet.

Hearing this, Canglong didn't care: "Then let them quarrel for a while, let's go have tea first." ”

Vivien looked incredulous: "You're not, aren't you?" ”

"I am." Canglong looked like a scoundrel, and then really came to the office next door, and let people make tea and drink it leisurely.

After a while, Badr also came, and seeing that Canglong was so leisurely, he looked anxious: "If you don't go over, they will really fight." ”

"Let them fight, just kill a few." Canglong drank tea with a pleasant face.

This made them speechless, but Canglong really drank tea in this office for two hours before going to the conference room.

His arrival quieted both Shiites and Sunnis, and most of them had already seen the prophet Canglong, so after his arrival, they all closed their mouths, and then stood up and saluted respectfully: "Prophet." ”

Canglong sat in his place expressionlessly, just now in the office, Badr had already told Canglong the reason for their quarrel, so as soon as he came, he asked a question: "Who will tell me why Allah gave Iraq so much oil, but in the end it cannot become rich like other Middle Eastern countries?" ”

The chiefs of the two factions, you look at me, I look at you, none of them spoke, seeing this, Canglong named and said: "Chief Assad, you can talk about it first." ”

Assad was closing his eyes and recuperating, when he was suddenly called by Canglong, and he couldn't come back to his senses, and after a while, he said: "Because of ** rule, Saddam Hussein brought Iraq to **, so our top priority is to pull out the US military base and establish a ** regime headed by the prophet!" ”

"This will lead Basra to destruction, we will not be able to compete with the Americans, and when the central government solves the threat of the remnants of the Mahdi Army and the Baath Party, we will bear the brunt of the threat." At this moment, a Sunni sheikh suddenly stood up and said pessimistically.

So the whole venue quarreled again, Canglong frowned, pulled out the matching gun of Badr beside him, and shot it at the ceiling.

With a "bang", the quarrel all stopped, everyone looked at him with fear, Canglong returned the gun to Badr, and then pointed to the chief who suddenly opened his mouth just now and said: "Drag him out, remove him from the chieftaincy, and appoint someone else to be the chief." ”

Badr was stunned for a moment, and gave the guard a look, and the chief was dragged out, and when he left, he did not seem to realize what was wrong with him, but he did not dare to insult the dragon, for all Basra considered the dragon to be a prophet, and to insult a prophet in Islam was punishable by hanging.

The room was quiet again, the Sunnis were trembling, and the Shiites, led by Assad, were gloating.

"Chief Chilam, you are the most influential Sunni, you come and tell me why Iraq has become the way it is?" Canglong looked at Kiram lightly.

The former governor of Basra, although he was removed from office by the central government, was not removed by Canglong, he still held the position of governor, only the Kurdish general, because he led the army against the prophet, was shot on the spot by Badr, and the other officials naturally did the same, and if they wanted to innovate, they had to take one step at a time, and if they were really killed, the administrative system of Basra would collapse.

Chiram was a little trembling: "I think it's a war, the war has dragged down the Iraqi economy, so we can't go to war, we should make peace with the central government and get the understanding of the Americans." ”

"Fart, where is peace without war, do you want to be an American dog so much?" A Shia sheikh stood up and opened his mouth to curse.

But this time the Sunnis did not refute, and they were all angry in their hearts, obviously they felt that the prophet Canglong supported the Shiites.

"Drag him out and treat him the same as the chief just now!" Canglong coldly ordered.

This caused an instant uproar in the whole venue, and the Shiite sheikh looked incredulous, and this time Badr did not act immediately, but said strangely: "Prophet this"

"Are you questioning my orders?" Canglong stared at Badr coldly.

Badr swallowed and eventually sent someone to drag the Shiite sheikh out.

At this time, the Shia sheikh was surprised, while the Sunni sheikh was puzzled, and then no one dared to speak on their own.

When everything was calm, the dragon said, "Allah has given you trust and made you chiefs of the tribe, but you are quarreling and fighting every day, how can you be worthy of Allah's trust in you?" The Prophet Muhammad once said that the Arab nation can only become strong if it is united, so it is not war that drags down Iraq, but infighting, and it is your disunity, so I don't want to hear your quarrels in the future, and if I find out, I will re-appoint another person to be the chief of your tribe, understand? ”

Hearing this, the chiefs looked confused, but finally nodded in agreement.

"As for the future of Basra?" Canglong paused and glanced at everyone, "Allah has long given me revelation to solve hunger and poverty, restore the economy of Basra, so that the people of all tribes can perceive the blessings of the Prophet's arrival, as for war and Americans are not for you to consider, Allah will give me inspiration!" ”
