For a small city with a population of two or three hundred thousand, this shelling was enough. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoFrom the point of view of these Iraqi Liberation Army, what they received in Azerbaijan was not pure military training, but the training of KGB agents took up most of the course, so in a sense, these commanders at all levels who returned from the Soviet Union, the troops they commanded were more like a group of armed police fighting.

One-third of the tutorials in agent training teach them how to face a person's mind. That is, from the perspective that the other party is a criminal and they are law enforcers, what psychological activities do cunning criminals have, what means they may take to evade the attack, and how to break the other party's will to resist, this is the difference between agents and soldiers.

"In our eyes, even if the enemy is made of steel, we will burn them to molten iron. There are only two outcomes of street fighting, one is to conquer quickly, such as Kyiv and Minsk during the Great Patriotic War, and the other is a meat grinder-like fierce battle, such as Leningrad and Stalingrad, so street fighting must be prepared for huge casualties, so to start the battle must invest more troops than the defenders, and strive for the front result after the offensive begins. That's why when we Soviet counterattacks Germany, the Germans can't use street fighting against us. ”

It is precisely when I remembered this passage that after the shelling of Bashir, the political commissar of the Western Military Region, the first order was to charge the whole army, and the military strength of Baghdad in the city was only two divisions, and after this indiscriminate shelling, there would definitely be huge casualties. If you have an advantage on your side, you must invest more power than your opponent in your attack and crush them in one go.

As soon as the shelling of Fallujah ended, the Iraqi Liberation Army launched a tidal wave of attacks, which did not distinguish between priorities and priorities, rushing into the city of Fallujah from all directions, relying on the superiority of numbers to break the positions of the defenders of Baghdad at one time. After all, this is a civil war, and the attacking Iraqi Liberation Army is not an aggressor, they are also familiar with the layout of houses in their own country, and many well-arranged traps do not work for them at all.

The entire line of defense laid out by Fallujah was breached almost at once in all sections, and the positions in all directions were faced with attackers several times their size, who had the look of a martyr, much like the imams of many religious shrines.

"Don't these people want money for their shells? How can you not look at it, just shoot first? "Many positional commanders are simply suspicious of their own eyes, and these Iraqis with red cloth bands on their hands do not look like their own country at all when they fight. And where did that weird cannon behind them come from? Many of his brothers were bombarded into minced meat by the other party's cannons.

Fallujah was only a small city with a population of more than 200,000 in this era, how could it be the bombardment of the city demolition team Stalin's hammer, not to mention the city, even Berlin, the capital of the Third Reich, was bombed into rubble.

"Comrades, rush to overthrow the military junta and establish a peaceful and democratic Iraq. Long live Iraq, long live the Communist Party. The PLA soldier who charged with the flag shouted loudly, and the blood in front of him had solidified the dirt road, filling the entire street with the smell of blood.

For Baghdad, once Fallujah falls, these generals can only go into exile, which marks that the door to the west of Baghdad has been knocked open, and they will face attacks from three directions, and it is almost impossible to turn defeat into victory.

As for the Iraqi Communist Party, which has already raised the banner of the uprising, they hope to conquer the city as soon as possible and break the confidence of the military junta, which may have an avalanche-like effect, so that the military government will lose confidence and finally occupy Baghdad without bloodshed, completing the change of power.

The junta soldiers who held the city hall of Fallujah refused to give up their resistance, and they brought cigarette leaflets to the Communists to persuade them to surrender. Suddenly, some people noticed some abnormal movements on the opposite side from the artillery team mirror, and the PLA tanks that had been firing at him for a long time retreated one after another, and more than a dozen behemoths pulled forward and pushed in a row after tractors and tank rescue vehicles.

"Everyone, get out of here! Fast! The veteran who had seen this monster in the Chengcheng Position exclaimed, and the chaos in the position was so difficult that even the Warlord could not stop it. Soon, these monsters finally confirmed the foreboding of the veteran, and the blazing tongue of fire instantly engulfed the Fallujah city government building, and ten minutes later, the attack began again, and the soldiers of the Iraqi Liberation Army followed the tanks to continue their advance, without looking at the collapsed city hall building, there could be no living resistance inside.

The breach of the city government in the center of Fallujah had an overall effect, and the fact that the Iraqi Liberation Army had occupied two-thirds of the city by this time caused panic among the government defenders, and some of the PLA soldiers who had been unable to attack the fortifications rarely stopped firing because the government soldiers inside had fled.

Two hours later, al-Bashir reported to the Central Committee of the Iraqi Communist Party in Basra that Fallujah had been conquered and that the Communist flag was flying over the gateway to Baghdad. As soon as the news spread, the entire Baghdad people panicked, and the southern front of the Iraqi Communist Party collapsed almost instantly. Two days later, the entire area around Baghdad was surrounded by armed forces rushing from three directions.

"Mr. Hudson, how about a cup of coffee." In Lubyanka's own office, Serov poured a cup of coffee for Hudson Warrent as if he were welcoming an old friend, and the whole action was very natural, without any sabre-rattling, and regardless of whether the other party was the US ambassador to the Soviet Union, it was completely the attitude towards friends.

Hudson Warrent's recent work has been to protest, or warn, or appeal to the Soviet Union. In short, during the time when Brezhnev and Kosygin were not in Moscow, his figure frequently appeared in the Kremlin and the Smolensk Square of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and today he finally came to Lubyanka Square, the headquarters of the KGB.

"Mr. Serov, it is not easy to find you, and with regard to the situation in Iraq, I think that the actions of the Soviet Union are clearly not in line with First Secretary Brezhnev's policy of détente." Hudson Warrent also suppressed his anger, but tried to maintain a calm tone and said, "Peace in the world today is what people all over the world are pursuing, and Mr. Serov's actions in Iraq are obviously trampling on peace. ”

"Oh, that's a novel way of saying it." Serov was noncommittal, neither for nor against, if there was an attitude, it was to take the other party's words as a fart, and pushed the coffee in front of Hudson Warrent, not angry at all because of the other party's remarks, and then said with a smile, "Then why don't you take some practical action?" This is not in line with the long-standing policy of the United States, and your coming to the Rubyanka today can only show one thing: the United States does not have the ability to interfere, your national strength is no longer enough, and you cannot face the Soviet Union with a tough attitude, in other words, the United States has become empty. ”

This sentence hit Hudson Warrent's heart like a hammer, and he wanted to express his anger, but when he saw the other party's fearless gaze, he didn't know where to start. This kind of gaze is like seeing everything, and you know what you want to say.

"Our two countries have been dealing with each other for so many years, and we are very familiar with each other, and let's be honest, the United States will not turn a blind eye to the situation in Iraq even if it has a little spare power." Serov turned his back to the other and recounted leisurely, "What a powerful country the United States, the leader of the free world, the hegemon of the world, the rule-maker, etc., etc...... How domineering you are, how arrogant you are in Iran, in Greece, in Berlin. What's going on now? Why don't you just intervene with troops and count on Turkey and Iran, two pieces of waste, will they stop me from carrying out my plan? ”

After World War II, the United States became the world's number one superpower, Britain and France and other old powers were reduced to second-rate countries, and several years of war brought great trauma to the world. However, in the face of the rise of the Soviet Union, the United States felt a chill, and the country was ideologically alien to the United States and other Western countries, so it was seen by the United States as a threat to its own future. During the Cold War, the main goal of US hegemony was to prevent the expansion of the Soviet Union and weaken its strength. The main scope of implementation is in the periphery of socialist countries and the important middle zone in the ********; The main means are military confrontation and containment.

"First Secretary Brezhnev, Chairman of the Council of Ministers Kosygin, Chairman Sherepin, they may not see the current predicament of the United States, but I see it, and I will not let go of this plan, what a détente plan, who wants to ease you up, your so-called goodwill is just trying to paralyze us, anyone may believe it, but I will not." Serov cocked his neck and drank the coffee dry, and said word by word, "The situation in Iraq was planned by me, whether the other members of the Presidium agree or disagree, this will not change, this country has been put away by me, don't waste your efforts." ”

"I'm still saying the same thing, if you want to interfere, drive the Fifth Fleet over immediately, if you can't, don't expect to be able to diplomatically set the Soviet Union back, it's not twenty years ago, it's not even six years ago, you can't make the Soviet Union back again." At this point, Serov assumed a gesture of invitation and said, "Please come back, Mr. Hudson Warrent." (To be continued.) )
