Chapter 61: Exile (1)
"Stop, who are you?" At the door of the political axe hall, two sentinels on duty said.
"Revolutionary Guards, don't you know?" A man with the rank of lieutenant replied coldly: "Carrying out the orders of the supreme spiritual leader, you have no right to interfere."
So saying, he swaggered inside.
A sentry wanted to stop it, this is the seat of the chairman of the Supreme Defense Committee, how dare they be so presumptuous?
However, another sentry immediately stopped him with a look.
Watching the swaggering platoon of Revolutionary Guards enter the political axe building, the sentinels were angry, but there was nothing they could do.
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps of Iran is a special branch of the armed forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran, which is outside the army and belongs to the regular military force with the Iranian army, but compared with the army, it is simply an invincible existence.
Khomeini did not believe in the army, so when Bavire's rule was overthrown in 79, Khomeini took over the army and did not hesitate to carry out a major purge of the army, and a large number of experienced junior officers were purged, which is also the reason why the Iraqi army was able to drive straight forward in the early days of the war. Moreover, "mullahs" (Iranian clerics) were sent to the army, and the old army was reformed with Islamic ideas and became the "spiritual" commander of the army personnel.
In addition to purging this army of insufficient loyalty, Khomeini also formed an armed force in addition to the army: the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, which was formerly a paramilitary force against the Pahlavi regime, and fanatically supported Khomeini's urban proletarians and youth in remote towns, and this army was loyal only to the supreme spiritual leader: Khomeini.
Therefore, in Iran, the status of this army is simply above other armies, and a small soldier who offends this army will suffer the greatest retaliation.
Receiving instructions from Khomeini, they came to Ahvaz to capture Abel Hassan, who had committed serious malfeasance in the course of commanding the army!
Khomeini finally decided to take this former comrade-in-arms under the knife.
Khomeini was not soft on his enemies, and Aber, like himself, opposed the Bavile dynasty and even fought side by side, and became the first president of Iran. However, Abel did not support himself, especially after the seizure of the US embassy by radical students, which led to the famous Iranian hostage incident, which Abor did not support. He didn't want to extradite the heinous Baviel back to China? Khomeini has since developed a deep estrangement from Aber.
Aberr's assertion of the separation of theocracy and power made Khomeini even more alarming.
And Abel actually carried him behind his back and secretly installed cronies in the army, especially now this rout armored division, the division commander Rajavi and Abel have a very close relationship. Want air support? Want this armored division to make a big difference? Think about it!
Now, this army has finally been defeated, which gives Khomeini a chance, a chance to completely oust him from power, not because he doesn't give face, but because he doesn't have a different way and doesn't conspire with each other.
The Iranian parliament has impeached Abor in his absence, and Abel is now a criminal who needs to be brought back to Tehran for trial.
"This is the underground command center, you are not allowed to enter it without permission!" A staff officer who had just left the house said loudly when he saw dozens of Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps soldiers coming in with loaded guns.
"The Revolutionary Guards carry out the orders of Leader Ayatollah Khomeini, anyone, who dares to resist, kill!" After the leading lieutenant finished speaking, several people were already holding guns to the jaws of the staff officers.
Revolutionary Guards, so arrogant!
Seeing this situation, several soldiers present did not dare to snort, the Revolutionary Guards, this is an existence that no one dares to provoke, especially now, if you are not careful, you will be accused of being a traitor, and even your family will be implicated.
They marched into the underground command center, and in the conference room, they found the target of this visit: Abel Hassan Bani Sadr.
At this time, Abor was on the map, studying the battle situation, although the attack of the armored division failed, but the attention of the Southern Iraqi Military Region has been successfully diverted by itself, which is very beneficial to the implementation of the plan for the next stage.
"Abel Hassan, you've been arrested." The lieutenant of the Revolutionary Guards said loudly.
Abor looked up and saw these soldiers in Revolutionary Guard uniforms, holding themselves with guns, and knew that Khomeini had finally decided to do it to himself, and this unit was Khomeini's own soldiers.
He sneered: "I am the president elected by the Iranian people, even now, the term has not ended, what right do you have to arrest me?" ”
His voice was full of anger, the difference between the ideals of the revolution and the reality was really too great, he wanted to bring a boil to the country, but unfortunately, the temptation of power was too great, and the former comrades-in-arms had now become a hostile situation.
Even more ridiculous, until now he is doing his best for Iran.
"The parliament has impeached you, our supreme leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini has signed off to approve your arrest, and because of your incompetence, which led to the destruction of an armored division, you are no longer the president." The lieutenant said without any emotion.
"Impeachment? Who presides over the council? Khomeini signed? What authority does he have to sign? I'm the president, and if I want to sign, I'll sign it! Abel growled.
None of the commanders present dared to speak, and the army was already under Khomeini's suspicions, and if at this time, they expressed their views and supported Aber, then their entire family would probably have to be purged by the fanatical Revolutionary Guards, you know, just last year, 15,000 women in Tehran rallied to protest against the decree that women must wear scarves in public.
The rabbit died and the fox was sad, they were at least a major general present, but they were pointed at gunpoint by a lieutenant of the Revolutionary Guards, and no one dared to speak.
Hearing that Abel was dissatisfied with his leader, Khomeini, the lieutenant immediately became angry and slammed his pistol on the door of Aberr's head, and blood flowed out.
"Take it away for me!" The lieutenant and the soldiers behind him said: "No one can insult our great leader!" ”
The soldiers came up and tied Abel with ropes.
How did this country become like this? How can theocracy be above the will of the state? Abel felt a hint of sorrow, his arms numb and his mind unusually clear.
"Stop! Let him go" Suddenly, an angry shout came from the door, and with the voice, the other officers saw a tall figure standing in the doorway.
