Chapter 660: Shocking Event
Because this city defense commander knows that only when he dies can he keep his family safe. Anyway, he will die in the end, and if he doesn't die now, he will be judged and humiliated by Uday in the future, so it is better to leave simply like this.
When the news of the air raid on Basra and the elimination of 100,000 elite Iraqi troops came out, the whole country of Iran rejoiced.
No one has foolishly asked how the figure of 100,000 Iraqi troops was obtained, how could Iraq's 100,000 elite troops be wiped out all at once? Anyway, everyone is happy.
If calculated in terms of the loss of material value, the losses of Iran and Iraq are hardly up and down, but Iran has gained the strategic initiative and greatly depleted the living forces of the Iraqi army. As a result of this carpet bombing, Basra is now almost in ruins, an empty city. If Iran wishes, it is entirely possible to redeploy the withdrawn troops, attack head-on and take Basra by force.
But Iran is clearly not going to do that, because their strategic goal is to retake their own important city, Aladan. If they return and take Basra, the tide of the war will be back to the way it was, and their own fresh forces may be surrounded by elite Iraqi troops, and even the stupidest commander will not do such a boring thing.
However, Iraq cannot afford to take it lightly, as Basra is not only Iraq's second largest industrial city, but also the southern gateway to the capital, Baghdad, which must be defended. Once again, they had to mobilize elite troops from the front line of Abadan and from the rear in case Iranian troops occupied Basra again.
Iran saw that Iraq was acting according to China's intentions. The troops withdrawn from Basra and the recently replenished troops were quietly mobilized to the vicinity of Abbataan, and after the ammunition was exhausted, the reconquest of Abataan began......
Guo Zhuocheng did not participate in the negotiations on the oil fields, nor did he return to China, let alone participate in the operation of commanding the Iranian army, but visited several of their major military bases at the invitation of the Iranian military.
Guo Zhuocheng knew that this was a disguised house arrest, because people had doubts in their hearts, although they did not say it. But they are still worried that he may leak relevant military secrets to Iraq after he leaves Iran.
In order to show their sincerity, in order to show that they have no defense against Guo Zhuocheng, they let Guo Zhuocheng visit several secret military bases, and also let him visit the F4 Tomcat fighter jets in the United States.
The F-4 is a two-seat supersonic multi-role carrier-based fighter developed by Grumman in accordance with the requirements of the US Navy's fleet air defense and escort in the 70s and 0s, which was used to replace the Navy's F-4 fighters. It is the world's most popular model for military aircraft fans, entering service in 974 and officially retiring in 2006. Those who liked it nicknamed it the Tomcat Tomcat.
This type of fighter is popular with military fans. In addition to Tomcat's super cool and beautiful shape, the powerful combat effectiveness is another focus, such as the F-4 Tomcat fighter mounted on the immortal bird missile, which is a representative weapon that makes the strategic phrase "decisive victory thousands of miles away" completely realized, mostly used for assault and destruction.
The current Iranian government was formed after the overthrow of the Pahlavi dynasty. In 974, the mass production of the F4 fighter almost died due to financial constraints, and it was the Pahlavi dynasty that had a good relationship with the United States to purchase this fighter for 75 million US dollars to continue production.
As a result, the fighters purchased by the Pahlavi dynasty at great expense were received by the new Iranian government. But. Because the new government is hostile to the United States, there is no source of spare parts for this advanced aircraft, and it is impossible to guarantee that all aircraft can take off, train and fight normally. They can only take out a few of them as organ donors and take off the spare parts on them to meet the flight requirements of other aircraft.
But Iran has not stopped trying to buy spare parts, and in its previous life it used certain people as intermediaries. The United States government also purchased some parts and components, and the U.S. government also broke out because of the "Iran-Contra incident", which caused the Reagan administration's serious political crisis, which caused an uproar around the world, and Reagan was widely criticized in the United States and almost stepped down because of it.
It's a pity that Guo is not an expert in aviation. When visiting and inspecting the F4 aircraft, it was basically a lively way, and I could only communicate with the Iranian pilots with a little aviation knowledge in my previous life.
Of course, the avionics system is the most communicated, because it involves more computer control technology and electronic technology, which Guo Zhuocheng is good at.
After the visit, Guo Zhuocheng made a request to the Iranian officials accompanying him, that is, to ask Iran to send several retired pilots who had flown the F4 and ground staff who had maintained the aircraft to China for technical exchanges.
The two sides negotiated and finally reached an agreement: Iran sent two pilots, two technicians, two ground crews and some technical information to China. And China gave Iran ten J-7 aircraft.
During Guo Zhuocheng's "house arrest," the attitude of the Iranian accompanying officials was very friendly and warm, and in addition, this additional agreement was reached, which is beneficial to China's development of new fighter planes and the absorption of advanced US technology.
He even learned a lot of Air Force combat skills and command methods in their headquarters. Because the air force command is too professional, the new Iranian government has to retain many air force commanders of the Pahlavi dynasty, all of whom have studied in the United States, and the command habits and methods are American, which makes Guo Zhuocheng open his eyes and study greedily, and at the same time take advantage of the opportunity that the other party does not dare to offend himself, and even curry favor with himself, and constantly asks what he does not understand until he finds out.
Every time he returned to his dormitory, he took out a pen and paper, wrote down everything he had learned at the headquarters, and prepared to hand it over to the relevant departments in China for study after returning to China.
It was not until the bombing of Basra was decisive and Iran's strategic objectives were achieved that Guo was freed.
On the contrary, he was a little reluctant, because with the gain of freedom, he was also denied access to those extremely secret places by the Iranian military, and he could never see those air force commanders again, and he could no longer learn the skills and knowledge of air force command.
When he came out, everyone else from China had already returned to China, and only Sun Xingguo was left waiting for him in the embassy.
He rested here for a day, and then took Sun Xingguo on a plane to Queen Alia International Airport in Amman, the capital of Jordan, where he was ready to transfer to a plane to China to return home.
To the surprise of the two of them, there was a plane hijacking: a group of armed men led by Safarini hijacked a plane bound for New York. The hijackers demanded the release of Palestinian prisoners held in Cyprus. The majority of the hostages were Americans, followed by British, Germans, Jordanians, and a few Japanese, Chilean, Argentine, and Australians.
Due to the impact of the hijacking, Queen Alia International Airport was forced to close and all passengers were stranded.
Hearing the news broadcast on the radio, Guo Zhuocheng scolded: "Grass! Then he sat down in his seat and quietly got up with his book.
His scolding doesn't mean how angry he is. Although he was disgusted by the fear of hijacking, he felt a little sympathy in his heart because it involved poor Palestine. He thinks that this nation is too miserable, and that Israel has suppressed it too much, and if these (hijackers) do not kill innocent hostages at will, he is willing to stand by them at a certain time.
Of course, he knew that his mind was evil and could not be spoken, so he said in his heart: Just be as lively. It seems that there was no such thing in the previous life, what will be the final result?
It didn't take long for the relevant departments to be unable to solve the incident in a short period of time, or perhaps because they were worried that there were other terrorists hiding among the passengers, so that all the passengers who were waiting were invited by countless military and police officers to get on buses and take them to different hotels around the airport.
Guo and about 50 passengers were taken by bus to a hotel not far from the airport. They were warned not to leave and waited for the police to identify them, saying they would not be allowed to board their planes until the security was lifted.
The hotel was guarded by heavily armed policemen around the hotel, and they looked like they were facing a great enemy.
Some of the travelers are nervous, some are uneasy, some are anxious, but some are as natural as Guo Zhuocheng.
Guo Zhuocheng and the two are not in a hurry, and they are not afraid in their hearts, and they have a very calm demeanor. Although there are not many people with this mentality like them, there are several, and these guys even laugh and say that there are free hotels to live in, free things to eat, and they can stay for as long as they want. They were even more heartless than themselves, and those people even paid attention to the changes in the situation like thrilling novels, constantly asking the police and soldiers guarding the place to inquire about the situation, Guo Zhuocheng felt amused in his heart.
It's a pity that these people are locked up in the hotel, they don't get anything, they don't ask anything, and the military and police don't answer any of their questions. These people have no choice but to spread rumors fabricated by others, or add fuel to their own indiscriminate descriptions of the situation to other equally curious people, and spend their time helplessly and boredly.
Sun Xingguo said helplessly to Guo Shucheng: "They look so slow, we have to stay here for a few days." ”
Guo Shucheng smiled: "Foreigners are like this, what can be done." Since we are so lucky, let's stay here for a few days in peace of mind for a free hotel. ”
I have to say that the Middle East countries are very rich, very luxurious, and know how to enjoy, the hotel they live in is just an ordinary local hotel, but it is similar to the five-star hotel that Guo Zhuocheng lived in China in his previous life, with complete facilities and luxurious decoration, the only drawback is that the service attitude is not good.
Maybe it's because so many people poured in at once, which greatly exceeded the hotel's plan, and those waiters couldn't take care of them one by one.
Sun Xingguo said eagerly: "Captain, I think they Jordan will deal with this kind of thing." This kind of opportunity is really rare, there is no such thing in China, we can't let it go in vain, what do you say? ”
