Chapter 042, Salute First and Soldier After?

Bali, Senate Roundtable.

The ninth patriarch Long Yunhai's face was pale, he didn't have any confidence in the face of the other eight patriarchs at this time, the plan of the Hand of God shook the entire patriarchal council, at this time it was useless for him to make more explanations, what the patriarchate needed was valuable people, and now Long Yunhai had no value.

"What else do you have to say, the Hand of God plan not only failed, but also made us lose Iraq, and now that China and Russia have penetrated deep into the Middle East, once they gain a foothold in Iraq, the entire Middle East strategy will be reshuffled." The second patriarch's face turned pale.

The eight of them all looked at Long Yunhai, if he couldn't provide something valuable now, he would either be cut by a thousand knives, or he would be thrown into the sea to feed the sharks.

Long Yunhai was silent for a long time, and he finally spoke: "I can recapture Iraq for the organization and cut off my left hand." ”

"You don't need to cut off your left hand, we've already sent ten of the most elite Templar and Assassin League killers, as for Iraq?" Elder No. 4 smiled and said, "Concentrate the power in our hands, and it won't be difficult to come back more." ”

"No, you don't know the left hand, only I know him." Long Yunhai argued, "The Templars may not be able to kill him, let alone the top killers of the Assassin Alliance, you sent them over just to send them to death, and Iraq, the strength of the Prophet Army, plus Russia's military support and China's economic support, no matter how many troops are sent over, it will only"

"Shut up, you don't have any use anymore, if even the Templars can't kill him, we'll send the saints, as for Iraq? We don't believe that the Prophet's army is really so powerful, even the 1st Panzer Division almost crippled them, and if we send a stronger army over, we can easily destroy him. Patriarch No. 5 sneered, "I think the Hand of God plan failed because of your personal reasons, and it was a seamless plan. ”

"Huh!" Long Yunhai suddenly laughed, these patriarchs were used to being high, even he was used to being high before, thinking that there would never be any mistakes in the plan, but his left hand was clouding him, he underestimated this nephew too much, in fact, in terms of conspiracy, he was not weaker than any of the patriarchs here.

It's just that it is useless for him to say anything at the moment, but he still looks at the No. 1 senator with a request: "You want to kill me, and I admit it, but I hope to kill me after you recapture Iraq and cut off your left hand, this is the only requirement." ”

Everyone was stunned, but many patriarchs objected: "He must be killed, the reason why the Hand of God plan failed, maybe he is an inner ghost, otherwise how can it fail?" ”

"Yes, killing him, not killing him is not enough to show the punishment of my senate." Several others said the same.

But Long Yunhai looked at the No. 1 patriarch, he was the one who really had the right to veto, and after a few minutes of silence, the No. 1 patriarch finally said: "Let him live for a while, lock him up first, at least he was also a patriarch." ”

Everyone talked for a while, but they didn't say anything, now they want to kill Long Yunhai is too simple, he can't escape at all, so there is not much loss when locked up, just because the Senate was so ruthless for the first time, it took more than 20 years, spent countless manpower and material resources, and finally got such a result, they were naturally unwilling.

After Long Yunhai was taken away, he was put in a prison, but he was not discouraged, and the elders would use him sooner or later, because these guys couldn't deal with his own nephew at all.

"Do you think the left hand can be subdued?" At this moment, the No. 1 Patriarch suddenly spoke, "If you can accept it, let him replace the Ninth Patriarch!" ”

Everyone's faces changed, after all, the left hand was just a chess piece they had cultivated, and it was too far-fetched to let him be promoted to the patriarch now, but they thought about it carefully, but found that the left hand did have this ability now, if he was really willing to become a patriarch, the Hand of God plan could continue, and it was truly seamless.

"I don't think it's possible, he's a cold guy on the surface, but in fact he's very emotional, and this kind of person can't be a veteran." Patriarch No. 5 said.

"But to deal with him now, the price that needs to be paid is too great, and forcibly launching a war against Iraq will cause dissatisfaction all over the world, not only that, but now the domestic development sentiment of NATO countries is high, and the United States still has hostages in the hands of Iraq, according to the left-handed decisive character, once we start a war against Iraq, we may not be able to win." The second patriarch analyzed.

"No. 2 is right, anti-war sentiment is now high in the United States, and there are even people who openly declare that the president is a dictator, this era has changed, it is no longer like the Cold War, when we could easily start a war against any country, but no one would stop it." Patriarch No. 1 said with a solemn face, "We are no longer the God who rules everything. ”

Everyone frowned, they were really clear about the current situation, and finally the second senator said: "I agree with the No. 1 senator, don't the Chinese have a saying called salute before soldiers?" Bloodless is the best policy, assassination is the middle policy, and use force is the next policy, especially for us now, starting a war is the next policy. ”

Several people nodded their heads, and then the No. 1 Senator announced: "Send someone to Iraq, negotiate with the left hand, if he is willing to become the senator, if he is not willing, then kill him, the Templars can't do it, then send the saints, the saints can't kill him, so start a war." ”

The senators all laughed, although they did suffer a loss this time, and even were very weak, but a small left hand could not compete with their senators.

At this time, Cang Long, who was in the research center, was chatting with Cai Qin about weapons, cooperation with China was inevitable, after all, he was Chinese, it was impossible to hand over everything to the Russians, and now he had obtained enough Russian technology, and many things could be produced by Iraq's own factories, but not as productive as Russia.

However, cooperation with China can enhance their productivity, the Chinese population is huge, and there are also many talents, once the labor contract between the two countries is signed, Chinese workers in Iraq will account for ninety percent of the total number of foreigners in the future, and now there are many more Chinese in Iraq than other foreigners.

"MIA1/A2 full-tracked main battle tank, M2 infantry fighting vehicle, M3 cavalry combat vehicle, full-tracked armored personnel carrier, tracked command post carrier, the ammunition of these land weapons we have copied, and test firing, can be equipped, mainly AH-64 attack helicopter, AH-1 attack helicopter, UH-60A multi-purpose helicopter, UH-l multi-purpose helicopter, OH-58D observation helicopter. The weapons and ammunition of these army aviation aircraft are difficult to replicate. Cai Qin explained, "If we use our Chinese aircraft weapons, but the system does not match, it will be difficult to exert the original combat effectiveness in a short period of time." ”

"Where's the cannonball?" Canglong asked.

The 1st Panzer Division is not only an armored unit, but also an artillery group, equipped with the most advanced Javelin anti-tank missile launchers, 155-mm self-propelled howitzers, 90-mm recoilless guns, 107-mm mortars, Avenger anti-aircraft missile systems and improved Vulcan anti-aircraft guns.

That is, these artillery pieces played the greatest role in the surprise attack, and the first round of artillery bombardment hit the first group army of the Prophet Army at that time without the ability to counterattack, and no matter how strong the will to fight was, it could not withstand the indiscriminate bombardment of modern weapons, so if Canglong wanted to reassemble this first armored division, he must also assemble this artillery group.

"With the exception of the missiles of the Avenger air defense missile system, the others have already been copied or have found a replacement, which is definitely no worse than the previous firepower." Cai Qin said, "But the replication of the parts and components of these equipment is a big project." ”

Canglong nodded, the reason why the war costs money is mainly in the maintenance of weapons, after a war, even if a tank is not lost, but in order to maintain combat effectiveness, many tanks will replace parts that are seriously worn out and load new parts to maintain combat effectiveness.

It's like a gun, if it is not maintained, there may be problems at the critical moment, the bullet can't go out, then it's over, especially the tank, if the shell can't get stuck, it will explode in the tank, and then the tank will blow up to the point that it's okay, the key is the unprovoked casualties.

If it weren't for the fact that the 1st Armored Division was almost fully equipped, Canglong would not have gone to such great lengths to copy the ammunition and parts of these weapons.

"So, how long will it take to replicate most of the major parts?" Canglong asked suddenly.

"We have too few personnel, and we are almost working overtime to develop them, but" Cai Qin was a little embarrassed, although she also wanted to help Canglong copy all the parts, but time and personnel were a big problem.

Canglong frowned, he knew that Cai Qin couldn't be blamed for this, when he walked in, everyone here, whether it was Chinese workers or Iraqi workers, had not rested for a long time, but he quickly thought of a way, so he said: "By the way, if I send all the troops of this armored division to the research center, what do you think?" ”

"To the research center?" Cai Qin was stunned.

She understood what Canglong meant, this is to get all the personnel who will use these equipment in the future to the research center to help build weapons, and also let them get used to the use of these weapons, so that skilled workers can teach these soldiers the maintenance and repair of weapons by hand, and once there is a problem on the battlefield in the future, these soldiers can also repair themselves.

"Confidentiality?" Cai Qin thinks it's a good idea, but the biggest problem is leaks.

Hearing this, Canglong looked at Su Su: "Do you think there will be a leak?" ”

Although Su Su was not sure, he said: "I don't dare to guarantee that everyone's youth army will not leak secrets, but at least ninety percent of the people in it will not leak secrets." ”

"Then let's do it, select 5,000 people from the student army that fought against the 1st Armored Division in the first place, and send them to the research center, where all flying objects and public activities are prohibited from now on, within a radius of 20 kilometers." Canglong said.

Su Su nodded, in fact, when Canglong said that he wanted to reorganize this armored division of the US army, Su Su was selecting people, and all matters were carried out in secret, and even Chief of the General Staff Simon and Prime Minister Vivian did not know about it.
