"Your Excellency the President, Iraq's oil pipelines in our territory have been attacked by unknown militants. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info≦≧ "In Damascus, President Hafez received this message from the Minister of Defense.

Hearing that the Iraqi oil pipeline has to pay a certain amount of money to Syria every year, President Hafez was also more concerned about the attack on this pipeline, and said: "We will immediately send troops to encircle and suppress the militants." ”

"We have sent the nearest troops to rush there, but there is news from the Iraqi side that they have mobilized a force to rescue our personnel." This was stated by Defense Minister Mustafa Taalas.

Hearing this, almost everyone heard Mustafa's displeasure.

Mustafa was Hafez's right-hand man, and on November 13, 1970, Hafez al-Assad launched a "corrective movement" to reshuffle the regional leadership and zhèngfu of the Baath Party, and became prime minister himself, and the following year, he was elected president.

Such an old minister, for Syria, naturally hopes to become the leader of the Middle East, which is the same as Hafez's wishes. ≦≧

But now, this idea, it seems, is getting farther and farther away, especially in the battle for the Golan Heights this time, in which Syria lost several divisions of armored units, but nothing was gained.

In several words, Mustafa has already revealed his dissatisfaction with Iraq, and now, Iraq is so deceitful that it wants to send its own troops to Syria?

Syria is not Jordan, there is no need for military help from Iraq at all, they can solve the problem themselves!

"I think," said the Air Force Commander at this time, Major General Manav, "that we are there with a second-line force. They only have a handful of trucks. There are not even armored vehicles, and it will take at least two or three hours to maneuver there. By that time the militants had long since run away, and it was only a little more than a hundred kilometers from the Iraqi border, and the Iraqi special forces were in helicopters. It took us more than half an hour to arrive, and the militants were attacking the Iraqi oil pipelines, and we agreed to their request, which was very useful for us to be able to quickly encircle and suppress these armed men who had infiltrated our territory. ≦≧”

Hear this from Major General Manav, the elderly Mustafa. There was a sense of dissatisfaction in his eyes.

Lieutenant General Mustafa, born on May 11, 1932 in the village of Rastan, near Homs. Now in his fifties, he joined the Arab Baath Party in 1947. After graduating from the Military Academy in 1954. Served as a second lieutenant officer in the armored corps. After the merger of Egypt and Syria, he studied battalion command in the Egyptian army from December 1959 to September 1961. From 1962 to 1963 he participated in the Ziyou Officer Movement. In February 1964, he was appointed Chief of Staff of the Fifth Armored Brigade, in 1965 he was appointed Commander of the Central Military District, in November 1970 he collaborated with Assad in a coup d'état, was a member of the Baath Party's Provisional Regional Command, in December 1970 he was appointed Minister of Defense, and in 1978 he was promoted to brigadier general after President Lieutenant General Assad.

Compared to Lieutenant General Mustafa's resume, Major General Manav, who is only 35 years old this year, has not participated in any formal conflict at all, at most in the Bekaa Valley command battle in 82, won a decisive victory, and shot down a number of fighters in the sè column, and then gradually rose through the ranks, until he became the commander of the Air Force. ≦≧

It can be said that Mustafa belongs to the senator faction, while Manav belongs to the young Zhuang faction.

In fact, the conflict between the two factions has already manifested itself slightly, and the most obvious conflict is in relations with Iraq.

The senators are all cherishing the feelings of Syria as a great power in the Middle East, and they are very dissatisfied with the rise of Iraq, which is now surpassing Syria in terms of development, whether it is military strength or economy, Syria's pride is being broken little by little, and the senators are very unwilling.

The young Zhuang faction is different, they believe that Syria's national defense policy should be tilted a little, originally, Syria is a hardcore ally of the Soviet Union, and Syria's army is all a type of Soviet-style equipment, but Syria has a better choice, such as Iraq, in the last battle in the Bekaa Valley, if it were not for Iraq's electronic jamming equipment, they would not have been able to achieve the final victory, and moreover, Iraq has rescued Syria several times, if it were not for Iraq's help, I am afraid that the army of the sè column will be driven in for a long time.

Although the struggle is only in the shadows, the president is also clear that Hafez is more inclined to his dream, that is, Syria, should be a Middle Eastern power! is the leader of the Middle East! However, he can also see reality. ≦≧

"How do you know that it was done by a sèle? Why can't it be another country's action with an ulterior purpose? Bazil-Assad said that he is the president's eldest son and the current president's successor, so he is also a bit rushed.

"Another country?" Hafez asked, "What do you mean, Baz?" ”

"For example, if Iraq claims that the oil pipeline was sabotaged by armed men, could these armed personnel be their own? And then, under such an excuse, they set foot on our land? Originally, our Golan Heights were taken away by Iraq, and now they want to seize our eastern region. Bazz said.

Born in 1962, Baz (also translated as Baselle) is young, but he is definitely not a young man, and if he can become president in the future, he naturally hopes that his country is the most powerful, and Bazel's hostile attitude towards Iraq is even stronger.

"Commander, Iraqis, you probably wouldn't do that, would you? Besides, if they hadn't stopped the army of the Lyric in the first place, we would have faced a great military threat. ≦≧ "Manav knew that he should never contradict the future president, but Manav couldn't help it, and he was still a little arrogant.

Bazir is now the commander of the Syrian Republican Guard and looks imposing
