Chapter 500: Playing to the Death of Western Europe
At the same time, it is also possible to predict how tragic the war that is about to break out will be! Although Iraq boasts of being the fourth military power in the world, there is still a lot of difference in the strength of the United States and NATO, and how tragic the battle between Iraq and the United States will be! Maybe it will end up being a war like Vietnam's, but this is different from Vietnam, after all, it was Iraq that invaded Saudi Arabia and Kuwait first!
It can be said that in the end, it is not certain whether Iraq will win or not!
"Iraq's military strength may not be able to withstand a U.S. counterattack. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 "If Iraq fails, then our layout will also fail, and it may lead to the stationing of US troops in countries such as Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, which will pose a greater threat to us," Ustinov said. ”
Because of the Israeli problem, the relationship between the Middle East world and the United States is not friendly, and although the royal families of Saudi Arabia and Kuwait have good relations with the United States, the ordinary people are resistant to the United States, so until now, the United States has not stationed troops in these countries.
However, if Iraq invades, then the situation will be different, the Saudi royal family will use the power of the United States to drive out the aggressor, in order to prevent the same thing from happening again, the United States stationed troops in Saudi Arabia, this is a certainty, and the Soviet Union will end up with chickens and eggs, and nothing will be caught.
"Yes, that's why we have to give our full support to Iraq." Andrei said: "Iraq must not lose this war, the best outcome is to defeat the Americans, and then Iraq will also be greatly damaged, only by relying on us in peace, can we maintain the situation in the Middle East." ”
It is quite difficult to grasp this degree, after all, war is not child's play, and it will not develop all the way according to Andrei's deduction.
"That's why we're supplying Iraq with more advanced weapons?" Ustinov said: "Only these weapons, I'm afraid it's not enough, those idiots in Iraq, even if they fight Iran, they can fight like this." ”
"So we need to support more, we may organize a group of mercenary pilots to help Iraq seize air supremacy, and we may also need to provide Iraq with more Scud missiles, including special warheads." Andrei continued: "In short, our attitude must be resolute and support Iraq in all directions! Steadily advance our Middle East strategy, as long as we gain the Middle East, our Soviets will increase their influence all over the world, at least those countries in Western Europe, we have to look at our faces! ”
The Middle East is a big move, and it will be even more important than a breakthrough in the Far East! Because this is equivalent to directly choking the throat of Western Europe! When the time comes, if the USSR is displeased, then reduce oil production and raise prices, a hundred dollars a barrel! Thoroughly play to the death of Western Europe.
So, even the idea of mercenary pilots, Andrei put forward, this is a way to increase the power of the Iraqi Air Force as soon as possible! In fact, now the USSR has already done this.
In order to prevent the technology of this advanced fighter from being acquired by the Western world, the Soviet Union needed to keep these fighters under close control, and with the help of such an opportunity, the Soviet Union sent about 30,000 personnel to Iraq, which was enough to control the entire Iraqi Air Force. And the current MiG-25 is also in the hands of Soviet pilots, and the trained Iraqi pilots cannot fly alone at all without the consent of the Soviet instructors.
At the same time, the real strength of the Iraqi Air Force, they are also clear, they are simply unable to compete with the first-class US Air Force, and the easiest way to improve the combat effectiveness of the Iraqi Air Force is mercenary pilots.
And for the Soviet Union, this was also a rare opportunity to experience.
"Will this lead to a direct confrontation between the United States and us?" Andropov asked.
"During the Korean War, we already did this, and the MiG corridor was opened up by us, and the Americans still acquiesced." Andrei said: "These mercenary pilots, we are looking for pilots with Middle Eastern roots, and at the same time can speak Arabic, what evidence can the Americans have to prove that our people did it?" Moreover, we can also transfer Iran's air force over. ”
The Tomcat fighter has been repaired, the Iranian government will become its own puppet government, the Iranian Air Force support, it is also possible, when the time comes, the Tomcat fighter will abuse the American F-15, how pleasing it will be!
Andropov nodded: "Yes, if we want to change the world, we also have to take some risks and pay some costs, and compared to what we gain, these are acceptable." Andrei, it's up to you to negotiate with Silly Damu. ”
Andrei and Silly Damu already have a very deep friendship, this negotiation with Iraq, related to the pattern of the entire Middle East, is a major event that affects the whole world, rest assured to Andrei, is not only a trust in Andrei, but also a stage to give Andre more space to display himself.
"This matter, after returning to Moscow, I will take it to the ****** meeting for discussion, Andrey, you have to be mentally prepared, this ****** meeting, I will nominate you as an alternate member of the ******." Andropov said.
Commissioner! Andrei was shocked in his heart, it can be said that entering the ****** is equivalent to entering the highest level, the current Andrei, although he has an inseparable connection with the senior leaders, after all, he is still a little worse from the low position, and the qualifications are still shallow, but the new situation of the entire Soviet Union was created by Andrey! Proposed by Andropov, let Andrei enter the ******, that is something that no one will object.
From then on, Andrei was able to participate in the meetings of the top Soviet leaders.
"Thank you, General Secretary, for your cultivation." Andrei said.
In fact, Andrei doesn't have much desire for power, but when he is in this position, he has to think more, the Soviet Union in later generations is extremely embarrassing, Andrei doesn't want to see that scene in later generations, he needs his constant push, and now, he has been tied up with Andropov, this road, can not go back, can only continue to move forward!
"It's a pity that your age is still a little young, but when the Middle East problems are over, you will be the youngest lieutenant general in the history of the Soviet Union after World War II." Andropov continued. (To be continued.) )
