Chapter 73: The Beginning of the Gulf War
"President, this is the first time we meet, and please take care of me in the future. I'm Bell, the leader of the mercenaries of the stars and moons. "Luo Tiancheng is not clear about the communication between the two forces, but the cliché is omnipotent.
"Where, the mercenaries of the stars and moons have been famous in the past two years." Saddam Hussein belongs to the human spirit, naturally knows how to greet him, Saddam's eyes flashed a trace of coldness, and said lightly: "I don't know what you mean by the top-secret military intelligence, I don't want anyone to deliberately lie to me!" ”
"Hehe, naturally I won't deceive the president, I know that on the morning of July 16, your military was already north of Kuwait, in an uninhabited desert in southeast Iraq, where the vanguard of an Iraqi tank division appeared, this tank unit is a Soviet T-720 tank, only your most elite troops and the Republic troops have this kind of tank, if I guess correctly, this unit is your Hammurabi division." Luo Tiancheng said lightly, the current news that his personnel have detected, in fact, Luo Tiancheng already knows what will happen in history, but for fear of an accident in history, he has already asked Luo Xingyue to arrange someone to conduct reconnaissance at the destination until it is confirmed.
"And on July 17, the deployment was completed on the Iraqi border, and on July 18, the Medina Light Division and the Allah Faith Division appeared nearby."
At this time, Saddam's face was already difficult to see, and the actions of his country's troops had been learned by outsiders at the beginning, and now the plan had begun to be implemented, in order to prevent the plan from leaking, looking at Luo Tiancheng, the killing intent in his eyes could not be concealed.
Luo Tiancheng looked at Saddam's face, with a hint of a smile on his face, and said: "Haha, does the president think that if he kills me, others will not know about this situation, the United States has already filmed this situation and is discussing it, but the United States thinks that you are just deterring Kuwait, and our Xingyue mercenaries don't think so, if Kuwait can obediently come according to your requirements, if not!" What the whole world needs to know, you don't need to kill me in this matter. ”
At this time, Saddam Hussein did not have much concept of artificial satellite in his mind, and his own country did not have it, but he knew that the United States did.
"Haha, misunderstanding, misunderstanding!" Saddam Hussein laughed haha, hearing that his plan had just been implemented and had been learned by the United States, and it would be useless to kill the person in front of him.
"My main purpose this time is to remind the president that modern warfare cannot be solved by numbers, and although the president now has a military strength of one million, it is far from being the opponent of the modern forces of the United States." Hearing this, Saddam's face showed a look of disbelief.
"Hehe, I know, the president may not believe it, I have some information on the military strength of the US troops here, you can take a look." Luo Tiancheng handed over to Saddam Hussein the information on the weapons and equipment parameters of the US troops that he had sorted out.
Saddam Hussein is not a military idiot, he began to participate in political movements at the age of 19, and now he is 63 years old, and since he became the president of Iraq in 1979, it has been 11 years, and he is an idiot who can understand the military strength in Luo Tiancheng's hands, and Saddam Hussein often wears military uniforms to show people, and often goes to inspect the army.
As Saddam Hussein turned through the pages of information, the expression on his face became more and more ugly, and he had always thought that the land war could be won in the war, and if these naval warships entered the Persian Gulf and the Red Sea, looked at their attack distance, and bombed Iraq, his own troops would not have the strength to resist, especially the air force.
Luo Tiancheng's information not only contains US military intelligence, but also has the US military deployment below, especially mentioning the strength bombing of combat aircraft.
It wasn't until half an hour later that Saddam Hussein carefully read this information, and after reading it, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, if it was really according to his original plan, the United States urged the United Nations forces to attack Iraq, and his own country would really have no hope of winning.
According to the analysis of US intelligence officers, in the early to mid-70s and early 80s, the Soviet Union went south to the Indian Ocean to obtain warm water ports and connect the maritime forces of the east and west lines in order to jam the neck of the Middle East oil shipping routes and suffocate oil in wartime. The Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in 1979 is a case in point.
"Thank you very much for your information this time, and sincerely invite your mercenaries to join, we can talk about money." With a large amount of oil in his hand, Saddam Hussein was full of confidence and wanted to raise the price to repay the information this time.
"President, we want to have an oil field of our own, and we are willing to provide weapons and equipment in exchange for this employment fee, and we can provide 50 million Franklin in cash, I don't know if the president is willing or not." Luo Tiancheng expressed the second purpose of this access to the Gulf War, yes, it is to obtain oil, oil is a large amount of energy in Luo Tiancheng's eyes, which can accelerate the evolution of the Zerg brood base.
"Oh!" Saddam Hussein was puzzled, his own country has oil, but if Kuwait had not increased oil production by a large amount, the price of oil would not have been able to rise.
Since the Xingyue mercenaries need to buy oil and sell it to him, the same is true for the oil fields, and in the end, it is not up to them to decide in their own country, plus they have 50 million Franklin cash, which is exactly what they urgently need and can solve some of their urgent needs.
"President, we are willing to exchange 400 anti-aircraft missiles and launchers for the Halfaya oil field! This is missile information! Luo Tiancheng saw Saddam's hesitant look, and once again blasted out a king bomb, thinking: You are about to attack Kuwait, seeing the power of the air force in the information I gave you, you don't urgently need this batch of weapons.
Saddam Hussein couldn't believe it, he didn't expect that a mercenary of more than 1,000 people would have more than 400 anti-aircraft missiles and launchers! What is the origin of the Xingyue mercenaries, the research and development of missile launchers is difficult even for a small country, otherwise how to buy them with money. Saddam Hussein immediately thought that as long as this war was won, these losses would be a drizzle!
"Okay, I promise you, but I can only give you the right to mine for 30 years, and our Iraqi government needs to take 35 percent of the share, and second, I need your members to assist our military members on the battlefield, and provide intelligence and resources when necessary." Saddam Hussein did not care about temporary gains and losses, his country had the most oil, and the poor only had oil!
Moreover, Halfaya produced less than 1,000 barrels per day in 1990, Saddam Hussein did not care, some people invested money to exploit oil, which naturally had great benefits for the amplitude, since the Xingyue mercenaries had already demonstrated their strong backing and intelligence capabilities, Saddam Hussein naturally hoped that the Xingyue mercenaries could help him.
In the end, after negotiation, Luo Tiancheng got the 45-year mining right and 200 million Franklins, 200 million Franklins can be traded in batches in the future, and the initial investment will be borne by the Xingyue Organization itself, and the Iraqi government will not participate in anything in the Halfaya oil field, just collect money.
"I specially brought a satellite jammer this time, which can prevent the shooting of the fifth-generation Keyhole 11 photographic reconnaissance satellite of the United States, causing blurred shooting, as our first meeting gift, to the president. One thing to note in advance is that if these weapons are acquired by American intelligence officers, the equipment will explode automatically! Seeing that since an agreement has been reached, he will naturally give the prepared gifts to Saddam, Luo Tiancheng doesn't want to be acquired by the Americans in the early 90s, isn't this a way to help the Americans!
Saddam Hussein has realized that his army has a low degree of modernization, and can only prevent possible multinational attacks first, and many countries may not be able to fight Iraq, and it is not wrong to be prepared, seeing the powerful function of US satellites, Saddam Hussein has no countermeasures, and all domestic deployments cannot escape the monitoring of the United States, in case of a decapitation operation, Saddam Hussein is indeed worried, and after hearing Luo Tiancheng's words, he is overjoyed: "Thank you very much, haha!" ”
