Chapter 326: Investigation

"Last time you were in the operational headquarters, you were disrespectful to our great spiritual leader, Ayatollah Khomeini, but is that the case?" A man asked in a cold voice.

"I have always been very supportive of our great spiritual leader, Ayatollah Khomeini, and I hung a portrait of Khomeini in my room, and besides, if I had been disrespectful to Khomeini, I would not have ordered the soldiers to refuse to accept the order of the Bavilie's political axe." Hashmian said.

"Humph! Don't think that when you stood on our side during the revolution, you felt that you had merit, then why are there so many people who are disloyal to the spiritual leader among the soldiers under your command? Tach asked.

What infidelity? My soldiers are slandered! Hashmian suddenly had an impulse: "Tahe, don't slander, last time I wasn't disrespectful to our spiritual leader, I just couldn't look past your actions, you took the soldiers of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, broke into the headquarters without permission, do you think the headquarters is where you want to come and go?" Hashmian asked.

"We, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, have the responsibility of finding traitors in the army, maintaining Khomeini's prestige, and all places that we deem necessary can be raided." Tach said.

"Then the most disrespectful place to Khomeini now, do you dare to search?" Hashmian asked.

"Of course I dare, for the sake of the great leader, I am willing to go anywhere." Tach said.

"Then go to Abadan, there are all people who are disrespectful to the great leader, go and arrest them all and interrogate them publicly!"

"You!" Tach was furious.

"Alright, Tahe, don't talk about it." Another person stopped Tahe.

Hashmian sneered in his heart, in fact, most of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, although they are arrogant, but they are not ambiguous in fighting, and people like Tah who only know how to fight in the nest are also scum in the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.

"Lieutenant General Hashmian, I have heard that you have vigorously opposed the actions of our young soldiers in the army to enter the war, and their enthusiasm for participating in the war has been frustrated, but is this the case?" Another asked.

This question poked at Hashmian's soft underbelly, he was able to rise to the position of lieutenant general in the army, and naturally he also had some experience, he knew certain things, and he couldn't talk nonsense.

Although in his heart, Hashmian hated this behavior very much, and he was not sure where the soul could go, but he knew that if a bullet hit the young soldier, it would be the same end.

And the teenagers are the future of the motherland, and if the teenagers are driven to the battlefield now, then, in ten years, Iran will collapse.

However, this policy was agreed by the great spiritual leader Ayatollah Khomeini, who still did not dare to complain too much in front of the investigation team.

"Also, you are very disgusted by our mullahs (clergy) entering the army?"

"No, it's definitely a rumor." Hashmian is not afraid of death, nor is he afraid of being removed from office or arrested, but he knows that he must not fall at this time.

"I am very much in favor of the guidance of the great spiritual leader, and I very much welcome the mullahs to join our army, and I also welcome the young soldiers to break through the enemy lines for us, these are all rumors." Hashmian felt a little disgusting about himself, when did he become this kind of person?

Finally, when the day's news was over, Hashmian walked out of the house, and outside, it was already starry.

Although Hashmian was investigated, it was just an ordinary investigation, and he could hear and call witnesses, but Hashmian was not removed from his post, and he could not be prevented from continuing to exercise his power, let alone torture him to extract a confession.

It is precisely because of this that although Hashmian has been under investigation, he is still insisting on his work.

"General." The adjutant walked over.

"How?" Hashmian asked.

"Recently, on the line of defense controlled by Iraq, there has been an anomaly." The adjutant said.

Something out of the ordinary? This adjutant is an old subordinate of Hashmian, who also went to the United States for further study, and his military quality is very good.

"Our personnel took the risk to reconnoiter and found that their fuel transport vehicles were transporting fuel around the clock, and that ammunition supply vehicles were also being transported, and everything indicated that the Iraqis were planning a large-scale military operation." The adjutant said.

Hashmian's face changed suddenly.

The soldiers and horses did not move, and the grain and grass went first. When I was training in the United States, there was a strong emphasis on the fact that supplies would determine the outcome of the war. If Hashmian were to command the battle for Susangild's Marshes, he would never make the kind of low-level mistake that supplies couldn't keep up with.

And after several battles, it has been proved that the commander of Iraq's Southern Military Region is a very clever person, and since the other side is raising supplies, it is imperative to launch a large-scale offensive.

This is also the problem that Hashmian is most worried about.

If in a few months, it will enter the rainy season, which is not conducive to the maneuver of the opponent's armored forces, and it will be very advantageous for the defending side, but now, it is the most suitable time for the enemy.

Originally, he came here to attack and take back Abadan, but now, he can only turn to defense.

This is one of the main oil fields in Iran, if it is taken by Iraq, then, Iran's economy, will be even weaker, especially the oil fields near Ahvaz, it is rumored that after Iraq occupied Aladan, the refinery has been restarted, if the oil fields here are obtained again, Iraq will be like a tiger with wings.

They must not be allowed to succeed in their plot!

"Let's go, go back to the war room." Hashmian said.

The forces are extremely insufficient, and it is simply impossible to defend such a vast area. Moreover, what is even more serious is that in his hands, there is no armor force that can be used to counterattack, and in the last battle, there were no more than ten tanks that could retreat in one body, how could they resist the frenzied attack of the Iraqis?

Only guarding the key areas of Ahvaz and Port Khomeini? No, absolutely not, Ahvaz is the transportation hub of southern Iran, and if the other party is allowed to run rampant outside, then it will definitely drive to the periphery of Ahvaz and surround it. Ahvaz is not like Abadan, there is a waterway to pass, and if he is surrounded by the other party, it is a dead move.

And the port of Khomeini is a port city named after the leader, and if it is surrounded, he will probably be removed from his post for dereliction of duty.

Not to mention the places that remain in the outlying towns and villages to be slaughtered by the Iraqis.

Do you really want to use those cannon fodder?

No way! Report to Ayatollah Khomeini, and then ask for soldiers! Although he is still being investigated, the situation is urgent, and he can't care so much.
