Chapter 1337 - Preparations for War
"The British government has always been a loyal ally of the U.S. government, but this time it suffered a big loss in the Second Falklands War, the Royal Navy and Army suffered heavy losses, and it will take at least three to five years to fully recover, so even if it participated in the Iraq War, it has lost its original combat effectiveness, at most, the Air Force can still play a role, and I even doubt that the British government has the heart to participate in the war when it encounters such a bad thing."
"The Iraqi government has unexpectedly cooperated, and the inspection team of the United Nations General Assembly has casually entered and exited any suspicious places, and has not found any trace of weapons of mass destruction, and it has been confirmed that this matter is not established, so that the US government will inevitably not be able to obtain the authorization of the UN General Assembly, and NATO countries will not intervene, in fact, it is the US government that singles out the Iraqi government, which is very beneficial to our layout, although the war will definitely be lost first and then won."
"After the exhortation of the boss, President Saddam Hussein has also changed a lot, the situation in Iraq is much better than before, the previous wrong policies are being canceled one after another, and the attitude of the people is not so sharp, all in all, the situation is getting better and better." Marcas said.
"Merit is merit and demerit, I must admit that President Saddam Hussein has indeed waged many wars, implemented an iron-fisted dictatorship at home, and done a lot of wrong things, but after all, the political situation in Iraq is quite stable, the social order is not chaotic, the standard of living is relatively high, reaching the level of a moderately developed country, and the social welfare guarantee is quite good."
"President Saddam Hussein is not the focus of the war, we cooperate with each other out of the need for profit, and whoever becomes president is the Iraqis' own business. Seriously speaking, Iraq and oil resources are the focus, and the strategic layout of containing the US government's control of the Gulf region and the Middle East is the focus. Thompson said.
This seems to be too ruthless to say, the mercenary corps in Iraq's military and commercial activities, Saddam Hussein has given extraordinary support, the entire northern oil resources are all allocated to the Golden Triangle Federal International Oil Company for exploitation, the original Kurdish autonomous region of more than 80,000 square kilometers of land, is also actually controlled by the mercenaries, and the construction of strategic crude oil reserves.
But there is no personal affection between countries and countries, and Saddam, as the head of state, must have his own interests, needs, and purposes in his way of doing things, and given so many preferential conditions, why not use mercenaries to confront the United States?
Let's take oil resources as an example, driving the Kurds into Turkey solves the potential hidden dangers of Iraq, and the mercenaries get 50 billion barrels of oil in the oil-producing areas, and no one suffers a loss in this account, besides, the more than 80,000 square kilometers of land is still Iraqi, but the mercenaries are temporarily managed, and this isolation of Iraq and Kuer Germany is also a practice with strategic purposes.
The mercenaries did not treat Iraq badly, helping the government army train a modern army, providing advanced weapons and equipment to help the government army increase its strength, and also sending mercenaries from the Kurdish regiment to secretly help Iraq fight against the United States, and also using its own oil pipelines to help the government increase crude oil exports and increase financial revenue.
It's not that it's completely ruthless, the mercenary army is willing to provide security for Saddam Hussein and his family, and even takes into account his life after the defeat, building a villa and underground bunker in a scenic hidden mountain area in Kurger Germany, and transferring part of his property there, and his private deposits are also in the Golden Triangle Federal International Commercial Bank, as long as it is in the territory of the mercenary army, he can be protected in any country he goes to, but when it comes to fundamental interests, there is no negotiation.
"The mercenary corps must make good use of this year's precious time to make a large-scale adjustment of Iraq's military strength, and must be able to confront the US military head-on, and some advanced weapons and equipment must be equipped with the army as soon as possible so that the officers and men can use them skillfully. According to my inference, the US army's attack is still in a fixed pattern, using cruise missiles and precision-guided bombs to attack major cities in Iraq, and the army units must enter Iraq from Kuwait, which is also the only route. ”
"I want to equip the Iraqi government army with advanced air defense weapons and anti-armor weapons on a large scale, and in order to divert the attention of the US government, there will also be sophisticated weapons and equipment from the army from Europe and Russia, because this war is mainly a ground war and an air battle, and the aircraft carrier battle group in the Persian Gulf will be dealt with by the submarine detachments that we have prepared in advance."
"In recent years, the Iraqi government's finances have improved significantly, and there are Gulf countries behind it, there is no pressure to buy some weapons and equipment, I will go to Iraq, the government army needs to purchase European main battle tanks and self-propelled artillery, Russian anti-aircraft missiles and radars, although the quality of mercenary equipment is higher than theirs, but this kind of behavior has other meanings."
"Russia certainly does not want the United States to attack Iraq, but at this moment, there is no one who can do anything about the United States, and I think President Park Kim is happy to sell missiles and radars to Iraq, not to mention that European countries have an obligation to help Iraq."
"As for the issue of the six northeastern states, we should still follow the original plan, support other local forces and government forces to maneuver, hide ourselves as much as possible, and adopt more small-scale guerrilla warfare, and we must not rush to achieve success, because the Yindu government has a very big heart and needs time to change their minds." Wu Chen said.
A year is not too much, less is not too much, not only to seize the time to make the layout, but also to be cautious and not too urgent, fortunately, Wu Chen has been operating this matter for many years, everything is deployed step by step, but it does not seem panicked.
In terms of the comparison of strength, there is no military of that country in the world at present, and it still has a clear advantage in being able to face the US military, and the confidence of the superpower is not blown out, but is built with hundreds of billions of dollars in military spending every year.
Even if the main force of the mercenary corps is now able to maintain the same running line with the US military at most, it is not easy, the input is the output, and how much does the mercenary corps spend every year?
But these are secondary issues, and Wu Chen has to do a very important thing next, that is, to secretly find out the important Iraqi military and political figures who have been bought by the CIA, otherwise it is likely to bring huge variables to this war.
In the past, the Iraq war was lost so quickly and so badly, and there was a reason for this, and often the most terrible thing was not the opponent, but the so-called own people.
