Chapter 774: Seize the throne
Guo then denied it: "However, I don't believe that such a possibility will arise, because so far there has not been a third party with sufficient influence in Iraq." If you hadn't helped the Yankees, we in China would not have been aggrieved for many years.
You helped so many people, but unfortunately the Yankees didn't appreciate it, and they caught you and were hanged by you. In this way, instead of letting you toss Iraq around, it is better for you to hang up now, no matter who is in power, it will do better than you, no matter who is the leader, it will not be as good for the United States as in the previous life, so that the Chinese have suffered countless dark losses. Even if from now on, your Iraq becomes a war-torn battlefield, and the benefits to China will be greater than in the previous life. ”
Thinking of this, Guo Shucheng smiled evilly and said to himself: "Instead of Iraq being the same as in the previous life, it is better to let Iran occupy Iraq, and then the Yankees will have a strong opponent, and China will be able to profit on both sides." ......, can I help Iran and let them occupy Iraq? Hehe. ”
Of course, this is just Guo Zhuocheng thinking about playing, he doesn't have the heart to help, and he also knows that he doesn't have such a rebellious ability. Even if Iran does have the ability to occupy Iraq, the United States will not let them achieve it.
No matter what Guo Zhuocheng thinks, he thinks that it is a good thing to get Saddam Hussein down and not let him continue to stay in his current position, and it is best to take advantage of the fact that Iraq has problems while the Soviet Union is still strong and middle-class. Even if they intervene in Iraq, even if China does not take the initiative to participate in it, the United States will take the initiative to give China a little soup to drink when it divides up interests.
If China can take advantage of its current influence in Iraq, if it can take the initiative to play a role, maybe China will not just drink the soup, and it will not be handed out by the United States, but China will take the initiative to seize and divide it. If this is the case, the Americans will have to ask for soup from the Chinese when they want to drink the soup.
The more Guo thought about it, the more he felt that it was in China's best interest to make the ambitious Uday make trouble, and even encourage him to make trouble. If successful, Iraq is likely to become China's little brother. Even if it is not successful, China will not lose anything.
Guo is not worried about what will happen to the oil fields in the Pokhaz region, even if Saddam Hussein retains his position in the end and crushes Uday's usurpation of power, as long as China does not send troops to directly intervene, Saddam Hussein will not dare to really do anything to China as a permanent member of the Security Council, and China can still exert pressure on him through Iran. It is believed that at that time, Saddam Hussein, who had rebelled against his relatives and relatives, not only did not dare to offend China, but would do everything possible to win him over, because he had just quelled the civil strife and was afraid that China would persecute him from both internal and external directions, and he hoped that China could help him maintain his rule and restore order at home.
Guo Zhuocheng tilted his head back, and said to himself again: "Secretly instigating Uday to engage in this kind of yin scheme, will we, the kind Zhongyang bosses, agree?" If they don't agree with China meddling, how can I convince them? I can't say that the result of Saddam Hussein's existence is to help the Yankees monopolize the Middle East and reduce China's influence there to a negligible level. He's just a scourge? You must know that this guy is now kind to China, and if it were not for his approval, China would not have been able to export so many weapons to Iraq. ”
Just then, the red confidential phone on his desk rang.
Guo Zhuocheng picked up the phone and listened to it, it was the phone number of Vice Premier Yu Gangqiu's office, and the staff inside asked Guo Zhuocheng to go to Vice Premier Yu Gangqiu's office immediately to report.
Yu Gangqiu happened to come back from the supreme chief, and he happened to be informed of something.
Guo Zhuocheng muttered something and pressed the button on the table.
Yan Yu soon appeared in front of him, and Guo Zhuocheng said with a smile: "There is a call from Vice Premier Yu's office, I will rush over immediately." Gather up the information about Iraq and we'll leave right away. ”
His car was in and out of Ouchi many times, and the Jing guards only checked their documents and let them go. When Guo Zhuocheng entered the office accompanied by Vice Premier Yu Gangqiu's secretary, Yu Gangqiu was holding a stack of papers.
When Guo Zhuocheng arrived, he threw the text away and said, "I've been so busy these days. I've got something to look for you, but you'd better tell me first. Deal with your business, and I'll talk to you again. Say, "What are you looking for me?" That invitation about Iraq? ”
Guo Zhuocheng said: "Yes. I would like to report some of my speculations to the leadership. Then he told him about Uday's ambitions, and about the young man's might be desperate.
Listening to Guo Zhuocheng's words, Yu Gangqiu was taken aback and asked, "How is it possible?" Did you get the information or was it really just a guess on your part? ”
Guo Zhuocheng said: "Vice Premier Yu, the biggest question now is not whether it will happen, but whether my country hopes that this will happen. ”
Yu Gangqiu didn't think about it and said, "Of course we don't approve of this kind of usurpation. What's more, Saddam Hussein is Uday's father, how can he allow such a careerist to ascend to the throne. Although it is our national policy not to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries, we at least do not agree with such a thing in our hearts. ”
Guo Zhuocheng smiled and asked, "Vice Premier Yu, do you think about it from the perspective of feelings or from the perspective of China's national interests?" Because Guo Zhuocheng is a subordinate, his question is a bit excessive, which is tantamount to asking Yu Gangqiu to show his opinion. He continued, "Vice Premier Yu, I'm sorry, I can only tell the truth. If we put aside the kind of benevolence, righteousness and morality in our hearts, and put aside the concept of kings, ministers, fathers and sons, Uday will bring Saddam Hussein out of power, which will only be beneficial to our country, and will not do any harm. Why don't we take what is good for our country? ”
Yu Gangqiu was stunned for a moment, stared at Guo Zhuocheng in surprise, and said, "What do you mean...... You mean that if Uday didn't have this in mind, you would encourage him to do it as well? ”
Guo Shucheng shook his head with a smile and said, "That's not it." Your point of view has gone so far that I have to agitate it. I mean we should be happy to see that happen. As for whether Uday will do this, I think there is at least eighty percent certainty. ”
"Eighty?" Yu Gangqiu said, "That means that this must have happened." Unexpectedly, this little bastard was quite bold, and it was estimated that he attributed all those few military exploits to himself, thinking that he was the god of war in the sky. If you have a little bit of military merit, you will your tail and look down on Lao Tzu. This kind of person will not end well in the future. ”
Guo Shucheng smiled: "Chief, why have you started to be idealistic?" ”
Yu Gangqiu waved his hand and said, "You mean that if there is civil strife in Iraq, both the United States and the Soviet Union will not intervene because they have scruples about each other?" Will it make Uday around? In the event that the Americans send troops to intervene, how will we respond? ”
Now that the Soviet Union is in the deep pool of Afghanistan, only the United States and Europe can intervene in Iraq, but now that Europe's economy is in recession, they are too busy to take care of themselves, and the possibility of intervention is very small, and the only thing to worry about is the United States.
Guo said: "That's why I report to my superiors. If the United States wants not to intervene, it is either to help Uday succeed quickly, or to use diplomatic force to prevent the United States from intervening. ”
Yu Gangqiu said: "My own opinion does not interfere. As I said earlier, our basic foreign policy is non-interference in the internal affairs of other countries, and Uday has done such a thing to make us feel unkind. As for blocking the United States, we will hold a meeting to study it, and I hope this kid can take it cleanly. ”
Obviously, Yu Gangqiu has agreed with Guo Shucheng's words: Wudai will do it.
