The Soviet forces entering the Middle East will be further accelerated after reaching Baghdad, because there is the most important railway junction in Iraq between Baghdad and Basra, and the Soviet Red Army with the help of this railway, coupled with its own mobility ability, will increase its speed much again, and face this prospect of possible deterioration. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

On the one hand, Admiral Schwarzkopf sent the Seventh Army north to snipe to gain time, and on the other hand, he ordered the U.S. Air Force in a nearby U.S. national base to destroy the railway from Baghdad to Basra. Slow down the southward movement of the Soviet Red Army. Slow down the pace of the Soviet Union on two fronts, and buy time to break through the turtle shell formation put up by the Kuwaiti regiment.

The Seventh Army, as the main force on the flank of the coalition forces, has under its jurisdiction seven divisional and brigade-level units: the US First Armored Division, the Third Armored Division, the First Mechanized Infantry Division, the Third Brigade, the Second Armored Division, the First Cavalry Division, and the British First Armored Division, with a total strength of more than 100,000 troops. As one of the two heavy armies of the United States in Europe, the strength of the Seventh Army is beyond doubt, and the Seventh Army and the Fifth Army face the Soviet Union's western cluster in the GDR, and there is no need to say much about combat readiness.

It's just that no one would have thought that the Seventh Army, as one of the two heavy military groups stationed in Germany, would meet an opponent who is not unfamiliar this time, the Soviet Union's northern cluster in Poland, and the northern cluster, as the second wave of offensive forces after the western cluster, actually appeared in the Middle East this time, and the two opponents who had been in each other's battle plans really appeared on another unfamiliar battlefield this time, putting on an offensive posture-for-tat.

Kuwait City is still rumbling with artillery, all the air power of the United States is concentrated in this former Kuwaiti capital, and the incessant bombing has left the entire Kuwait City full of ruins, and the Kuwaitis who have not been evacuated have experienced the cordial greetings from the free world, bathed in the light of freedom, and finally have the right to die freely.

The US military has unmistakably told the world why many people think that the United States is fighting a war with logistics, air strikes in the sky, artillery bombardment on the ground is non-stop, the convoys of the United States mainland and its European allies are concentrated, and the major ports of Western Europe and the United States are a busy scene, and all kinds of armaments are loaded onto huge ships.

At this moment, a news shocked the entire Middle East, as an open base to one of the United States, Oman, was attacked by surface-to-surface missiles and air groups, and the United States destroyed the Iran-Iraq air defense system, Oman was attacked by anti-radiation missiles, a large number of aircraft groups raided Oman's airspace, with a red five-pointed star on the tail of the aircraft group, clearly indicating their identity, the Soviet Air Force......

"Comrade Védrina, I personally welcome you. However, if France meant to mediate this conflict, it could be very difficult, and the Soviet Union had no money to retreat. In the Kremlin, Serov received the French president's diplomatic adviser to Védrone, who had a good personal relationship with President Mitterrand, and this time he came to Moscow, combined with the current world situation, the significance is self-evident, and other countries are frightened by the state of war between the United States and the Soviet Union.

It can be said that the confrontation between the Soviet Red Army and the US military has surpassed the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962. Beginning with the entry of the Soviet Red Army into the Middle East, all the major cities of Western Europe set off a huge protest, which was directed against the Soviet Union as well as against the United States. The Soviet Union and the United States put on a decisive posture in the Middle East this time, and together with the nuclear warheads of the two countries in tens of thousands of units, the whole world has fallen into an unprecedented dangerous state.

The clouds of war are getting closer and closer, and at last other countries can not sit still, this time it is no longer possible, but it is about to become a reality. Many of America's allies want the United States to stop its war and not expand its scale to let the Arabs solve their own problems. The situation on the side of the Soviet Union was similar, some countries used state relations, and some countries used the relationship between political parties and political parties, and together they were comrades and brothers, and it was hoped that the Soviet Union would exercise restraint.

As a Socialist, if you don't have a face with some Vedrina, you can be called comrade with the Soviet Union. But all this is useless, not to mention Vedrina, now all the members of the Presidium of the Central Committee of the USSR are under the surveillance of the KGB, except for him, the general secretary, and the slightest hint of backing will be immediately removed.

"In fact, there is no need to get to this situation, the Soviet Union and the United States can each take a step back." Verdrina also knew that her task was very difficult, but she still had to try, and if she really fought, humanity would be too close to destruction.

"The question is who is backing down?" Serov looked at the other party indifferently with a cigar in his mouth and said, "The Soviet Union has no room to retreat, there is a proverb among Russian folklore, when encountering resistance, the iron rod is swept away, and the resistance is increased, and the iron rod is thickened." People in our country like this method, and if I compromise when the time comes, this iron rod will fall on me. ”

"General Secretary, I have to say that things don't have to evolve to the way they are now." Vedrina smiled bitterly, "But now that the orders of the world's human beings are in the hands of you and President Bush, even if it is for the whole world, can't you take a step back?" ”

"President Bush won't give up, he knows what it means for America, the same!" Serov paused for a moment, and said in a majestic and unquestionable tone, "I will not give up, since I was young, my life can be said to be smooth sailing, occasionally there are some twists and turns, but it has always been in the fast lane. I have a beautiful wife, many excellent children, to this day I am the general secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, I have achieved all the goals of life, now I have no pursuit, selfishly speaking, even if a nuclear war starts, theoretically I will be the last to die, but before I die, I will remove the last obstacle, which country hinders the progress of the people. ”

Vedrina was silent, if the person opposite put forward a bunch of theories to prove that the Soviet Union had to do this, he could still persuade him, but such a desireless heart, he wanted to lead the entire Soviet Union into the war, but he didn't know where to persuade him, and finally said solemnly, "General Secretary, the Soviet Union thinks that its strength has surpassed that of the whole world?" This sentence can already be regarded as a threat to the Soviet Union on behalf of France, and the average person will definitely consider it seriously.

"The annual production of nuclear weapons in the Soviet Union is equal to the total number of four French nuclear warheads. With 2,000 per year, it is widely found in the vast territory of the Soviet Union, as well as in the deep seas of the world. Serov tilted his head and looked at Vedrina and said, "I don't know who will win a nuclear war, but the Soviet Union will definitely not lose." ”

After this meeting, Verdrine spoke on the phone with French President Francois Mitterrand and told the news of the failure of persuasion at home, "Serov is like he said it himself, he has no pursuit of this person at all, he has obtained all the emotions he needs, only the statehood of the Soviet Union has not been confirmed!" ”

"The Americans will stop him, the USSR will not necessarily win. It would be better for both of them to shed their blood in the Middle East. "Mitterrand's voice is very unpleasant, and now one can only hope that the two countries have not gone completely crazy and solved the problem with conventional forces. But once the hatred is fought, it's hard to say.

Outside Kuwait City, the US troops left behind by the Seventh Army in the north are still bombing the Iraqi People's Army in a dense phalanx, and the entire Kuwait City has long been unrecognizable, and the whole city is full of ruins and broken walls, and the entire city will definitely be torn down and rebuilt after this war, the city government and the royal palace will become ruins, the collapsed Kuwait Tower will be on the ground, the whole city will be full of corpses, and more wounded and soldiers will be hidden in the ubiquitous dilapidated houses.

"I hate this kind of siege! But there is no way. Admiral Schwarzkopf said fiercely, and ordered the last recent fire cover, and then the siege of the city. In the past few days, the Soviet Air Force has frequently appeared in the skies over Middle Eastern countries, and Jordan and Oman have been attacked by the Soviet Air Force.

At first, Admiral Schwarzkopf thought that the Iraqis had caused trouble for the United States by lighting up the oil wells and creating thick smoke, but now that he thinks about it, he is relieved that the Soviet Air Force has also been affected and is unable to support the Iraqis in Kuwait City, and the fighting is still between the United States and Iraq.

The artillery and tanks of the US military units were all fired at Kuwait City, when a series of clear or dull sounds rang out over the positions and depths of the Iraqi troops, and the sky was instantly filled with the screaming sound of shells tearing through the air.

The heavy shelling lasted for nearly half an hour, and as soon as the shelling stopped, four Apache helicopter gunships also roared over Wannan and launched their own rockets into the position like a rainstorm, ravaging the town again. After firing rockets, two planes flew close at a low altitude and used their cannons to fire fiercely at Iraqi positions and buildings.

The U.S. troops quickly divided into three routes, leading the way along the road, with tanks as the lead, infantry fighting vehicles followed, and the infantry disembarked and followed Kuwait City to launch an attack, and fierce battles immediately began on various positions. The Iraqi People's Army is also leaning on the cities, trying to hinder the US troops, and they have to buy time to wait for the Soviet rescue.

"We hope that the United States will stop in moderation, stop this senseless war, and cherish world peace!" Komsomolskaya Pravda made another appeal, and at the same time it was the last time.

In the dust, the sweaty Lieutenant General Kvashnin jumped out of the jeep, took off his shoes and poured sand out of it, then put on his shoes and led the people into Basra, saying as he walked, "Our friends have drawn the battle line, let's see if the imaginary enemy is really combative." Behind him, the neatly lined tanks stretched out of sight.

"General, they're coming!" In the U.S. Seventh Army Command, a staff officer entered the headquarters and reported.
