Chapter 74: Halfaya Oilfield
After Luo Tiancheng left, Saddam Hussein urgently arranged for a major general to be in charge of the matter of 400 anti-aircraft missiles and launchers, and with the staff group, adjusted the entire combat plan, the position of air defense and sea defense, there were originally only more than 1,000 mines on the sea, but this time he was ruthless, and directly arranged 10,000 mines!
If it is really as the people of the Hualuo mercenary group said, this time they will also let the other party not be able to eat and walk around!
In fact, until now, Saddam Hussein still has little faith in his heart that the United States will intervene in the war, after all, in the eight-year war, the United States has hardly intervened.
Under the influence of Luo Tiancheng, the Gulf War finally began to go in a different direction, and the US intelligence department had no idea about it, and until now they still think that Iraq is just using its forces to deter Kuwait from submission, because if you want to attack the small Kuwaiti country, you don't need elite troops to send it at all!
In fact, there is really not much time left for Saddam, and now the time is already on July 20, 1980, and there is not much time for real adjustment and deployment, and military mobilization will not be able to be adjusted in a moment and a half. Of course, the decision to fight Saddam Hussein or not is not in Kuwait, and there can be corresponding flexibility in time.
However, the atmosphere in Iraq and the morale of the army have been guided by Saddam, and if nothing is done, Saddam's prestige will be immeasurably damaged, and he will already be an arrow on the string, and there is no possibility of taking it down.
Located in Arlington County, Virginia, southwest of Washington, a building that has received wide attention from the world because of its world-famous United States, is built in the shape of a five-pointed star, which is the famous "Pentagon", which is the building of the United States Department of Defense.
The 51st and 41st President of the United States, George W. Bush, known in history as Bush Sr., is urgently convening a meeting, and the CIA intelligence chief, the secretary of defense, the deputy secretary of defense, the secretary of state and the treasury, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and the commander of the three armed services are holding a meeting.
"This time, we can just be invited to participate in the military exercises of the United Arab Emirates, send aircraft carriers to show their influence against countries in the Middle East, the probability of Iraq attacking Kuwait is 30 percent, with Kuwait's military strength, there is no need for Iraq to let three elite divisions be displayed in the buffer zone at the Iraq-Kuwait junction." This was stated by Secretary of Defense Dick Cheney.
"The CIA continues to gather intelligence to find out the situation in Iraq as soon as possible, Dick, reply to the UAE, we agree to military joint exercises." After the opinions of several people were unified, Bush made an announcement to the outside world.
At this time, in a secret base of Xingyue mercenaries somewhere in the desert, Luo Tiancheng, Luo Xingyue and others were here: "Xingyue, after the United States intervenes in the war, find the American militaristic ammunition depot as soon as possible, this time the number of missiles in the United States will not be small, we have to let the United States have a heartache." It doesn't matter if you can't find it, there is more intelligence for Iraq on the ground. ”
"Yes, Juggernaut." Luo Xingyue bowed and said, giving an order to the 20 members of the Yuezi team under his jurisdiction, now Luo Tiancheng and the others have no military satellites, no satellite navigation, and set up signal towers, which will be detected by other countries, so using telepathy is the most concise way.
"I've sent 300 miniature Scout bugs into the Middle East to assist you in scouting. There is still half a year before the real large-scale fighting, and you should pay attention to your security during this time, and the intelligence forces of various countries must have already carried out activities in Iraq. "At the beginning of July, Luo Tiancheng had already let the miniature reconnaissance enter the Middle East to reconnoiter the terrain of Iraq.
After all, Luo Tiancheng is against the sky, in his previous life, it is strange to be able to remember the terrain of Iraq through Baidu, and before that, in order for the Xingyue team to be able to pay attention to the surrounding situation at all times, he already has 100 satellite reconnaissance insects, and the number of micro reconnaissance insects is not much, Luo Tiancheng said that there is no way, the evolution of micro reconnaissance insects takes 0.1 hours, which takes 0.1 hours in the universe, that is, 1 hour of the earth, although the time is short, but the number of micro reconnaissance needs to be large.
The miniature scout insect can adapt to multiple harsh environments in the universe, and cannot be observed by the human eye, and its flight speed is extremely fast, so it is the best choice for field reconnaissance. It is because of the existence of miniature scout insects that the Xingyue mercenaries can accurately grasp the surrounding information during the mission and achieve 100% mission completion.
Now Luo Tiancheng's biggest advantage is that he is familiar with the direction of historical development, and can accurately use history, if he didn't know the historical development, Luo Tiancheng would definitely not have such great achievements in creating songs, film and television works and comics.
If there is no evolution ability of the heart of the insect swarm, to Luo Tiancheng to evolve into a cyborg, Luo Tiancheng's achievements are much lower than now, and he lacks skills, although the strength of the 0th order peak belongs to the unattainable realm among ordinary people, but Luo Tiancheng knows that there are many people who have reached the peak of the 0th order in Huaguo alone, such as Wei Lao, who has seen Wei Lao, Wei Lao's strength is now at the peak of the 0th order, and the strength level is in the generation of grandmasters, and when he goes head-to-head with the cyborg, he can be defeated in a short time.
There is also the ancient martial arts family that is now looming in China, so Luo Tiancheng's focus is on the ancient martial arts family.
Luo Tiancheng didn't want to evolve the Zerg combat unit, but the Zerg combat unit is not suitable to appear on the earth now, at least no special insect beasts have been found on the surface of the earth, and a most basic 0-order combat unit Velocitor, the evolution time is 3 days in the universe, that is, 30 days of earth time, from which you can see the difference between biochemical people and Velocitron, you get what you pay for, since it takes three times as long, it naturally makes sense.
If there is a Zerg brood base, the preliminary preparations have been completed, and there is no need for so much time, in terms of information, maybe dozens of minutes, or even a few minutes, can complete the hatching of the velocrat unit, pay attention to the hatching, not the evolution of the heart of the swarm!
The 50 million Franklin cash that Luo Tiancheng delivered to Saddam Hussein was secretly accumulated by Luo Tiancheng for Xingyue, and the employment funds earned by Luo Xingyue have been invested in the secret base, naturally these money were secretly transferred to Luo Xingyue by Luo Tiancheng, and Luo Xingyue took out the money in batches and placed it in a secret place in a few days.
After Saddam Hussein obtained the funds, missiles and launch vehicles, he traded the oil fields to Luo Tiancheng.
Luo Xingyue and Luo Tiancheng drove to the Halfaya oil field, and now Iraq has entered a state of pre-war preparations, setting up blocks in many places to intercept them, and under Saddam's orders, they came to the Halfaya oil field two days later.
Discovered in 1976, the Halfaya field is a "super-jumbo" field located in Missan Province in southeastern Iraq, which is about 31 kilometers long and 10 kilometers wide.
The oil-bearing area of the oilfield is 239 square kilometers, the recoverable reserves are about 4.1 billion barrels, the current daily production is 1200 barrels, and the comprehensive recovery degree is 0.02%, which is basically in an undeveloped state.
Now the Hafaya oil field area is bare, there is no road at all, Luo Tiancheng does not know where it is, under the leadership of the local military guide, he first came to Amara, the capital city of Missan Province, located on the back of a low mountain on the banks of the Tigris River. It was an important river port, a trading center for agricultural products and livestock, wool and leather, and was famous for its weaving and silverware manufacturing.
In the introduction of the locals, Luo Tiancheng knew that Amara was mainly Shia, and when he heard this, Luo Tiancheng sighed, was he cheated by Saddam! The Shiites and Sunnis have been in war for a thousand years, and it is possible that they will not recognize Saddam's orders.
Looking through the window at the women passing by with black headscarves covering their mouths and hair, revealing their eyes tightly, children playing on the side of the road, police patrolling the streets, although this place is close to Kuwait, the atmosphere of war is still not enveloped here.
But on the whole, Amara is not wealthy, perhaps because of the eight-year Iran-Iraq war, and people have a sense of indifference in their eyes. Fortunately, the government did not deny Saddam's order, and in the process of the government handing it back, Luo Tiancheng and his party came to the Hafaya oil field on camels.
