The chaos of Nasiriyah is also the masterpiece of Yizhar.

Not to mention anything else, this guy didn't help the refugees at all, just set aside a city to set up a refugee camp, and then sent the army to guard it.

As for the lives of the refugees, he didn't care at all.

The frustration with the Razak authorities is also due to the lack of food, clean drinking water and basic sanitation facilities, and it is not surprising that the refugees do not make trouble.

It can be said that the absence of unrest is simply a miracle.

Can Izzar be blamed for this?

Of course he has to blame!

According to investigations conducted after the war, the government forces stationed in Nasiriyah at that time, namely the two infantry brigades, were well supplied.

In addition, after the arrival of the refugee influx, the Razak regime also provided Nasiriyah with supplies to help the refugees.

It's just that Izhar put the military first and did not use these supplies to help the refugees, and did not even open enough ration stations in the camps.

After the counterattack began, he took with him all the supplies that were supposed to be used to help the refugees!

Because of him, thousands of refugees have died.

You know, before Nanijal came to take over, there were several large-scale bloody clashes in the camps, all over the fight for food.

In addition, during several small riots, Izhar ordered shooting at refugees, resulting in hundreds of casualties.

If he was allowed to stay in Nasiriyah for a while, it would definitely provoke a large-scale riot.

It can be said that Nasiriyah is a quagmire, a mess made up of troubles.

This is also the key reason why other generals are reluctant to come here.

In fact, sending other people to Nasiriyah will only make the situation worse, because no one can bring tens of thousands of tons of living supplies like Wang Dong.

As for the counterattack, it is nothing.

Three days later, the government forces under the command of Izhar reached the outskirts of Semavo, advancing to be exact, as there was no decent resistance along the way.

Ithar was arrogant, but not stupid enough to send him to death.

After taking control of several roads to the west and south of Samawa, the government forces did not advance or storm, but began to build defensive positions.

Next, naturally, high-intensity bombing.

By this time, the second batch of A-5PG had also arrived in Basra.

Because the construction of Nasiriyah airport is not yet complete and much of the infrastructure has not been repaired, such as the vital oil depot, 24 attack aircraft are still deployed in Basra, and another 24 JF-17s are also in Basra, and have not returned to King Khalid Military City for the time being.

Staying in Basra will make it easier to get fuel and ammo.

Of course, the combat effectiveness of the A-5PG is certainly not much higher.

On the seventh day of Wang Dong's arrival in Nasiriyah, the Arab League ground force, consisting of two Saudi brigades, one Kuwaiti brigade and one UAE brigade, entered Iraq.

All of these troops remained in Basra.

Quite simply, the barracks in Nasiriyah are still under construction and cannot accommodate the Arab League ground forces and provide logistical support for the Arab League ground forces.

Then there is the question of command.

Although Razak expressed his gratitude to the Arab League for sending troops, according to his wishes, the Arab League had to obey the command of the Iraqi government forces in Iraq.

Is it possible?

Not to mention that Crown Prince Mohammed has long been delayed by Razak, and even if he still trusts Razak, he will not hand over the ground forces of the Arab League to him to command.

To this end, Crown Prince Mohammed believes that the Arab League Coalition Command should be formed, and that the Iraqi government forces should be under the command of the Coalition Command.

The reason is also very simple, Iraq is a member of the Arab League, at least the Razak regime.

In addition, before sending troops, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, Oman, and Jordan, the five Arab League countries that have sent ground troops, have already reached an agreement on the establishment of a coalition command, and have also set up a command structure in King Khalid Military City in advance to be responsible for the deployment of ground troops.

Now, is it possible to ask the Arab League to hand over the command?

Not to mention Saudi Arabia, other Arab League member states will not agree.

Before the matter of command is decided, it is natural that the ground forces of the Arab League will not go to the front line, and they may withdraw from Iraq at any time.

Fortunately, Crown Prince Mohammed gave Wang Dong face.

After Wang Dong's request, Crown Prince Mohammed sent an engineering force to assist Wang Dong in their military construction.

The main project is the infrastructure of Nasiriyah Airport.

In addition, transport vehicles provided by Saudi Arabia have also arrived in Iraq one after another, and they have begun to deliver materials and equipment to the front line to speed up construction.

To ensure that the transport roads were unimpeded, a Saudi mechanized infantry brigade took control of the road to Nasiriyah.

Because the frontline fighting was in full swing and the government forces had begun to tentatively attack the city of Samawa, Razak made a compromise by acquiescing in the actions of the Royal Saudi Army in Iraq and ordering his generals not to contradict the coalition forces.

Only, who dares to offend the Saudi army?

With the support of Saudi engineering troops, the capacity of the Canadian service has increased several times, and the construction of the infrastructure of Nasiriyah airport is proceeding very smoothly.

With the completion of the oil depot, the first batch of 8 A-5PGs was stationed at Nasiriyah airfield.

Of course, the airfield was also upgraded to an air base.

At this time, it was the eighth day of the siege of Semavo by government forces, and although they had advanced into the city, they had never been able to break through the rebel lines.

Without the main battle equipment, relying on a pitiful number of armored vehicles, it is impossible for the government forces to take Semavo.

After eight days of fighting, they were still standing still, and the combat effectiveness of the government army was not ordinarily poor.

You know, the rebels used infantry to defeat Semavo!

Now, the problem is bigger.

How can the government forces convince the Kurds when they behave so poorly?

Moreover, the ground forces of the Arab League have already entered Iraq.

If, with the support of the Arab League's ground forces, government forces are still unable to defeat the rebels, then why should the Kurds ally themselves with the Razakh regime?

It's not speculation, it's a real question.

On the day when the second batch of 8 A-5PGs was transferred to Nasiriyah Air Base, Wang Dong received a message from Riyadh from Yunlong.

The Kurds have said they will not consider an alliance with the Razakh regime until government forces take Semavo.

Because Saudi intelligence agencies act as intermediaries, the information is conclusive.

To this end, Crown Prince Mohammed has ordered the Royal Air Force to participate in the bombing of Semavo and assist the government forces to take Semavo as soon as possible.

The next day, good news came from the front.

The government army entered the city and captured the rebel headquarters the night before, annihilating tens of thousands of rebels!

Destroy!?

Apparently bragging.

In fact, the rebels abandoned Semavo on their own initiative, retreated overnight to the north bank of the Tigris River, and blew up the bridge over the Tigris River.

That is, government forces simply "took over" Semavo. 8)
