The Chinese ambassador said: "There are many unfavorable factors, first of all, the international community does not support it, and the most that can support your country is a few neighboring countries, and several major countries in the Security Council will definitely oppose it, at least our country will not support you, and secondly, the country that your country is going to deal with has a vast territory and a large population, although they seem to be scattered now, but please understand that once they suffer a foreign attack, they will unite and unite wholeheartedly to the outside world, which is not only national propaganda and agitation, It is national self-confidence and national pride that binds them together

At the beginning of the Soviet-German war, the Soviet army was a thousand miles, millions of troops were annihilated, and millions of troops were captured, but the final victory was still the Soviet Union, because the territory of the Soviet Union was too wide and the population was too large for Germany, and the Soviets really couldn't finish fighting

If your country enters a certain country, your Excellency will also encounter the problem of geography and population, your current army is indeed very strong in the country, but once you rush into the enemy country, in the major cities and strategic points to divide troops to guard, then your country's strong army will be weak and insufficient, their land area is too large, your ** team is likely to be attacked everywhere, and the important places are likely to ask for more troops everywhere."

Although everyone knew that the "one country" in question was Iran, neither side was willing to say it

The reason is simple, Saddam Hussein nodded and was about to speak

The ambassador added: "This is not the most important thing, as long as you are prepared in advance, as long as you do not set the strategic objectives too large and limit the focus of the attack to the borders and a few key strategic points, this situation can be avoided, but this requires your country to strike a thunderous blow to the other side, and you must shock the other side where the war starts, so that they are afraid of your country, and our country also has a few words that can be summed up very well, that is, 'In one go, If your country does not have the strength to shock the enemy country at the place where the war starts, the other side will not give up and will definitely mobilize their forces to fight with your country, and then your country is likely to fall into the quagmire of war As far as I know, your country has not yet given the other side the strength and means to strike a thunderous blow, and can only guarantee victory in the early stage of the war, and this is still in the absence of other countries to help that country."

Saddam Hussein began to want to refute, but when he heard the last sentence, his eyes opened and he asked: "Other countries help them?" It is impossible for the United States, it is impossible for the USSR, it is impossible for them to have bad relations with both countries, and if those two countries do not attack them, they should rejoice that they are an evil country, they are Satan, and there is no one to support them internationally, I am convinced of this"

The ambassador said: "There is no possibility to say that His Excellency the President of the Soviet Union has just said that Afghanistan is on the verge of annihilation, although I do not agree, but I prefer to believe in the judgment of His Excellency the President, does this not mean that the attention of the Soviet army will probably be diverted, and the Soviet Union will probably accumulate their troops on the border of that country, so that they will face your powerful attack in the west, and in the east and north, they will face the great pressure of the Soviet Union, Your Excellency, will they fall to the Soviet Union because of this?"

If they fall to the Soviet Union, not only can they remove the deadly threat posed by the Soviet Union to them, but they can also get a large amount of weapons and equipment from the Soviet Union, and they can send the whole country's troops to attack the Soviet army, as for the Soviet Union, it is happy to see this happen, so that they will have an additional channel to develop to the south, and they invaded Afghanistan, isn't it just to find a channel to attack the south? ”

The ambassador continued: "Besides, what will the United States do if the United States goes to the Soviet Union and is likely to intervene in the affairs of the Middle East, and that country is likely to fall to the Soviet Union? Of course, they will try their best to prevent this from happening, and although the United States has a bad relationship with this country now, they can put pressure on this country on the one hand, and provide military assistance to this country on the other hand, even if they don't come forward, they can also let their little brother come forward."

"Israel?" Saddam Hussein immediately spat out the name of a country

"The last thing Israel can afford is to have a powerful Arab state in the Middle East, which is a huge threat to them, and they will try to prevent this from happening, even without the support of the United States," the ambassador said.

Saddam Hussein said angrily: "They dare that we, the Arab countries, will unite and ...... together because of this Let's deal with Iran"

Hu Jianshan next to him almost laughed out loud, and said in his heart: I thought you would say that you would deal with Israel together

Although they all hate this country in the land of projectiles, with the support of the Americans, Israel is simply a small power that cannot be killed, and several Arab countries have united to wage war against Israel, each time it starts with victory, and ends with defeat again and again, and the military power of this small country is getting stronger and stronger, and the military technology is getting higher and higher, so basically no one dares to really do anything to Israel

In the past, Egypt, Saudi Arabia and other countries were on par with the strength of this country, and even slightly, not to mention Iraq, but after several Middle East wars, the surrounding countries fell one by one, while Israel has become stronger step by step, and now Israel's military strength has surpassed any of the surrounding countries, and no country dares to fight with them alone, and the sad thing is that this disparity is getting bigger and bigger

If Israel really helps Iran, it is really impossible for Iraq to overthrow Iran, but it may fall into the dilemma of fighting on two fronts, and if this happens, Iraq's strategic goals will be far from being realized

Now Saddam finally agrees with the ambassador's words, either do not move, or use a thunderous blow if he wants to move, which will not only scare Iran, but also make the Soviet Union and the United States not have much time to react

As long as time is fast, the Soviet Union will not take action, and the Soviet Union will not move, and the United States will also throw a mouse, fearing that its own single action will trigger the action of the Soviet Union, and that the Soviet Union will enter the Middle East and meddle in the affairs of the Arab world

Waiting for Iran to occupy important ports along the Persian Gulf and occupy strategic points on the Iran-Iraq border, as soon as the dust settles, the initiative will be in the hands of Iraq, and it will be able to defend or attack with ease in the future

Thinking of this, Saddam Hussein asked directly: "What weapons can your country provide?" ”

Seeing that the intimidation was successful, the ambassador was secretly happy in his heart, and said calmly: "Because your country must have been a land war at the beginning of the war, because our country can provide your country with light weapons, artillery, and all kinds of military supplies, if your country can come up with a suitable price, we can also provide tanks and armored personnel carriers for your first team, and for tanks and armored personnel carriers, we can also provide maintenance and personnel training."

Step by step, Saddam Hussein took the bait and asked: "How much is a tank?" ”

The ambassador was ashamed, but he still reported the number written by Guo Zhuocheng on the information and said: "600,000 US dollars."

Sure enough, Saddam immediately said: "No, it's too expensive"

The ambassador said: "Mr. President, this price is indeed a bit expensive now, but when the war breaks out, especially when the battlefield losses are too great, when the enemy's large-scale tank cluster rushes over, this price will be very cheap, and even if there is money, it will not be able to procure it, and other countries will embargo it, and our country will not be able to transport it for a while

Waiting for the end of the war, those tanks that can only be used as decorations are even a hundred, which is not comparable to a tank that broke the enemy's will at the beginning of the war, and the price of our tanks is much lower than that of the Soviet Union, and cannot be compared with the price of tanks in the United States and Britain

In particular, our tanks are suitable for the use of noble people, first, our country and your country are friendly countries, soldiers to this tank will only produce a sense of pride and cordiality, will not be alienated from Western tanks because of disgust with Western countries, will not because your country has been hostile to Western countries and now purchase weapons from Western countries, thus doubting your country's policy, is conducive to strengthening the unity of your country's soldiers, is conducive to improving the image of Mr. President among officers and soldiers

Second, China's tanks have a simple structure and are easy to operate, and the tanks of the United States and Britain need to be trained for more than half a year to form combat effectiveness, while ours can enter the battlefield with only one month or even a few weeks of training, and our tanks do not have high requirements for soldiers, as long as they graduate from junior high school

Since what we are now pursuing is a thunderous blow, then at the beginning of the war we must have a tank force that is strong enough to make the enemy tremble, composed of our tanks, this force is undoubtedly the most suitable, the lowest comprehensive cost, the fastest military formation, and the greatest strategic deterrence.

Saddam Hussein was unwilling to admit whether the strategic deterrent power of China's tanks was the greatest, but the two points of the lowest overall cost and the fastest degree of military success were undoubtedly correct; he had a deep understanding of the soldiers' qualities; although Iraq purchased "Sam" ground-to-air missiles from the Soviet Union at a high price and introduced advanced weapons such as T-72 tanks and MiG-2 fighters, it was unable to form an army for a long time because of the soldiers' low cultural literacy

But he still shook his head and said: "Your Excellency, the figure of 600,000 is too big, 400,000 US dollars."

The ambassador did not expect the dignified president to start bargaining, and he also smiled and said: "400,000 cars are not impossible, but the number of vehicles you buy must not exceed 2,000"

"Two thousand?" Saddam Hussein and the Iraqi defense minister, who accompanied him to the reception, took a breath of cold air and looked at the ambassador with incredulous eyes
