The signing of this contract, the three major international forces are all happy, they all have their own oil supply areas that they can control, but Fang Xiaoyu will not be satisfied with this, he will continue to implicitly encroach and provoke the other two powerful forces, and slowly consume their potential power by boiling frogs in warm water, preparing for the possible next world war.

It is the established national policy of the Chinese Empire to secretly deal with these mainstream forces in the world, but it takes time for these methods to slowly show their power, and the most important goal at the moment is another goal, which naturally returns to Red Russia, only this time he is not instigating Alexander III, but Abdul II of the Istanbul Empire.

As early as the end of the war, in order to obtain Baku's oil, the Iranian Empire planned a large-scale attack on Russia, but unfortunately the Iranian Empire's equipment was not advanced enough, and the quality of the soldiers was poor.

After that time, Abdul II learned from the pain and was bent on strengthening his own military, and as a new NATO member, his best choice was the Chinese Empire.

When Abdul II submitted a request for military assistance to the Chinese Empire, Fang Xiaoyu immediately replied. The Imperial Chinese military not only sent a large number of instructors to train a new type of army for the Empire, but also sent a large number of Imperial Iraqi officers to a number of army officer schools in the Empire of China for study.

After these soldiers entered the military academy, the Chinese Empire did not discriminate against them, and taught the same knowledge in full accordance with the standards of their own cadets, and they even participated in a rainbow military exercise in Tubo County during the study period.

This military exercise opened the eyes of the Iranian soldiers, and after returning home, perhaps out of vanity, they trumpeted the authenticity of the rainbow military exercise and the improvement of the technical and tactical level, which made the NATO allies begin to pay attention to this kind of military exercise under the completely actual combat conditions of the Chinese Empire.

After obtaining detailed information about the exercise from the Imperial Chinese military, the allies offered to send their own troops to participate in the exercise to enhance their combat effectiveness. There was an opportunity to enhance tacit understanding with friendly forces, and Fang Xiaoyu naturally agreed, not only did all countries participate in the Red Flag military exercise in which the army and air force participated, but Fang Xiaoyu also asked the military to conduct a naval military exercise once a year, and all allies were also invited to participate.

Even if Fang Xiaoyu agreed to the requests of the allies, this year's military exercises have ended, and the invitation will be next year, and now with the return of the trained officers and soldiers of the Istanbul Empire one after another, the domestic army training plan is also nearing the end, and Abdul II, who feels that he has enough strength, is ready to invade Russia again.

During the long winter, the Empire of Istanbul has been preparing for war. At the suggestion of the instructors of the Chinese Empire, a large number of field airfields and air defense fortifications began to be built in the border areas, and at the same time, the various units that had just completed their training also entered the positions one after another.

On April 2, 911, Abdul II announced another offensive against Russia, provoking the Second Russo-Iranian War. After the training of the instructors of the Chinese Empire, the soldiers of Iraq have long been reborn and are no longer the original fish belly troops. In the first offensive, the various units of the Istanbul Empire actually launched a rapid assault like the Chinese Empire.

The first to be dispatched was the newly formed air force of the Islamic Empire, which used the same Golden Eagle 2 fighters and Kunpeng 1 bombers as the Chinese Imperial Air Force. Before the Russian army could react, the air force of the Islamic Empire preemptively crossed the Line of Actual Control and first bombed more than 10 front-line airfields of the Russian army, destroying all 300 fighters of various types deployed by the Russian army on the southern front.

When the Russian High Command received the news of the destruction of the Air Force on the Southern Front, they were stunned. The Iranian Empire has always been a fish-belly army, and the Russian army also despises them very much, and even the number of defensive troops and weapons and equipment on the front line of the Caucasus is less than one-tenth of the eastern defense line. Now that the Istanbul Empire has actually delivered such a sharp blow, how can this not surprise the Russian generals.

Since the last war, the two sides have actually been unable to do anything, and have not signed any armistice agreement at all, so the two sides have been in a state of war, and naturally there is no way to declare war or not, because of the suddenness of the incident, now the Russian high command can only try to mobilize troops, so that the front line can withstand the attack of the Iranian Empire.

Alexander III put too much pressure on the Russian army, resulting in most of the elite Russian troops stationed on the eastern front, and less than 200,000 Russian troops on the southern front, and most of them are garrison troops, with few advanced equipment, especially anti-tank weapons, not to mention that between the southern front and the country, there is also a large Caucasus mountain range, which makes it very difficult for the Russian army to supply materials and mobilize troops.

Russia's domestic economic situation has been poor, and the main source of foreign exchange is the various metal deposits in the north and several oil fields in the south, especially Baku. Due to the lack of funds for construction, Russia's infrastructure is not very good, and there are only two primary roads from the country to the Caucasus, and there is no railway connection.

In stark contrast to Russia, after the Iranian Empire joined NATO, it was built by several railway companies of the Chinese Empire, and several double-track railways were built in the country.

Modern warfare is fought with high-tech weapons, and it is fought with the speed and quality of logistical supply, so in the early stage of the war, Russia had already lost half of it. Unlike the Great Caucasus Mountains, after the bombing by aircraft, a large number of Grizzly 1 tanks of the Iranian Imperial Armored Forces were dispatched en masse, crossing the Lesser Caucasus Mountains, which are hilly terrain, and covering the infantry group to rush towards the Russian border fortifications.

In the face of the powerful firepower of the Iraqi army, the Russian soldiers could only hide in the fortifications, shooting desperately with small arms in their hands and a few guns, because of the lack of anti-tank weapons, the firepower of the Russian army did not have much to do with the Grizzly 1 tank, they could only rely on flesh and blood, and use the anti-tank grenades used by the Cossack Empire to force the attack, but this weapon was too inefficient to resist the large-scale attack of the Iranian Empire tank troops.

The heavy artillery units of the Iranian Empire are also waiting behind the positions, and there are front-line artillery observers or reconnaissance planes hovering in the sky to send the coordinates back to the command headquarters in a timely manner, and the heavy artillery units rely on these coordinates to name the Russian firepower one by one, and clear them one by one, providing favorable fire support for the vanguard troops of Iraq.

The debut of the Imperial Iraqi Army after the training gave a surprise to the countries of the world, and its strong combat style and quick and effective tactical use were almost identical to those of the Chinese Empire. The governments of various countries couldn't figure out what kind of magic the Chinese Empire used to transform the famous fish belly master in the world into such a powerful one in two years.

In fact, the soldiers of Iraq, who have fought with Persia for many years, do not lack battlefield experience and courage, but the backwardness of equipment and tactics over the years has greatly reduced their combat effectiveness, which will give the countries of the world such an illusion.

This time the support of the Chinese Empire only improved the equipment and tactical level of the Iranian Empire in a short period of time, and such a miraculous situation would occur, not to mention that in order to ensure victory, the instructors of the Chinese Empire accompanied the team as staff officers to give advice to the commanders at all levels, ensuring the correctness of the tactics of the Iraqi Army.

The commanders at all levels of the Iranian Empire are very convinced of the abilities of these staff officers, and they are very in awe of the Chinese Empire, so they naturally obey the words of the staff officers.

In the face of the efficient attack of the soldiers of the Iranian Empire, although the Russian army fought selflessly with great sacrifice, and even fought to the last one in every section of the fortifications, after all, the Russian state was not long, and the fortifications on the border line had only just begun to be built, and the entire position was completely disorganized, because the weapons were too small and the number was too small to effectively defend against the attack of the Iraqi army, and they could only be forced to retreat after a few days.

During the ten-day offensive operation, the Russian garrison south of the Caucasus Mountains could not retreat, and was surrounded and annihilated by the Iraqi army in large numbers.

Since the Baku oil fields are south of the Greater Caucasus Mountains, and after the Russian army here was wiped out in large numbers, the region was successfully controlled by the Islamic Empire, and Abdul II finally realized his dream. After taking control of the oil fields of his dreams, he also became less enthusiastic about fighting the Russians.

After all, war requires money, and there will not be too many benefits to be gained by fighting any longer, so he immediately ordered all railways to reduce the delivery of ammunition, free up transportation capacity to concentrate on transporting construction materials and workers, and under the cover of the troops, they began to build a large number of permanent fortifications in the mountains of the Greater Caucasus, and only used the air force to attack and harass the territory of Russia, and contain the possible counterattack of the Russian army.

Fang Xiaoyu was also helpless about Abdul II's small-scale peasant idea of reaping the benefits when he saw it, after all, although he could rely on a large number of instructors and pro-Chinese generals to control the army of the Istanbul Empire, in order to take into account the feelings of the allies, he could not interfere too much in its political direction.
