The original Kusai first received the news of the night battle at sea, and he still underestimated the power of the Iranians' anti-ship missiles, and also underestimated the intelligence of the Iranians, who would actually use such a method of attack as a dinghyo.

At the same time, he also knew that in history, because of the many attacks, Kuwait was the first to send an invitation to the U.S. Navy to escort their ships, and since then, the U.S. Navy has stepped into the Persian Gulf. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info≦≧

The United States even dispatched an Aegis missile cruiser of the Ticonderoga class to the port of Dammam in Saudi Arabia to prepare to escort tankers for itself and other countries that asked for it.

History must not be allowed to repeat itself! Qusay is wary of the United States, so he also knows that the Iranian threat to the Strait of Hormuz must be completely eliminated, so that the door to the Persian Gulf can be completely closed and the American power will not enter.

Now, outside, the Americans, the Soviets, and even the British, all of them covet the oil resources of the Persian Gulf and want to exert pressure and influence here.

They are all waiting for a plea from the countries of the Persian Gulf coast that need to rely on sea transportation to endure Iran's attack. ≦≧

And in all countries, there is no doubt that Saudi Arabia is the leader, this escort mission, Saudi Arabia is definitely the main force, their frigates are eye-catching, you know, in this era, to be able to successfully intercept three sea-skimming anti-ship missiles, it takes a lot of technology and luck.

Therefore, after getting in touch with the Saudi side, Qusay decided to come and meet with King Fahd in person to discuss a joint solution to the problem.

Just as Qusay had just entered the royal palace in Riyadh, Prince Sultan arrived.

Today's Qusay, in the whole Middle East. Everyone knows that under the wise command of Qusay, Iraq has now achieved absolute superiority in the struggle against Iran.

"Your Majesty, this time our escort group succeeded in escorting the ship out of the Strait of Hormuz, but the Iranians brazenly attacked our escort formation with missiles. More than a dozen dinghys were also used. "We have to come up with a response, otherwise our escort operations will not continue," Prince Sultan said. ≦≧”

"yes, so, Qusai came in person to provide us with a solution." King Fahd said.

Does Qusay have a solution? Prince Sultan feels like his head is going to blow up, and Qusay has a solution? However, Cusay is a day of war, and there may be a solution.

"Your Royal Highness. You say, what is the big threat to us from the Iranians? Qusay asked.

"Anti-ship missiles, of course! This time, if it were not for the late moment, the jamming equipment provided by your country would have been restored. I'm afraid our Abuha will also be sunk. "Sultan knew about the whole course of the naval battle, and the jamming equipment provided by Iraq was hit by a rocket, stopped working, and then the Iranian missiles flew in. And after the interference device resumes working. The Iranians' missiles were all out of order, and the jamming equipment helped a lot.

Only, who knows if the Iranians will again focus on destroying those jamming devices? For the next escort, Prince Sultan is not so confident.

"Yes, the biggest threat at the moment is the Iranian anti-ship missiles. ≦≧" Qusay said: "However, the anti-ship missiles of the Iranians. There are only twenty pieces in total, and there are five hair shè racks. So, instead of intercepting their shè missiles at sea. We might as well destroy it. ”

Destroy it directly? Prince Sultan asked: "You mean that we are attacking the shores of Iran and destroying those missile launchers of the Iranians?" ”

After asking, Prince Sultan glanced at the king, and the king was also looking at Qusay with concern, because this is related to the basic strategy of Saudi Arabia!

Saudi Arabia pursues a neutral strategy, although they are all towards Iraq, they have been providing all kinds of assistance to Iraq, but they have not declared war with Iran, although Iran is very dangerous to attack their oil tankers, but Saudi Arabia has never thought of attacking Iranian land, because, in this case, it means that Saudi Arabia is involved in a formal war against Iran.

The Iraqi navy was not involved in this convoy operation, and although the Iraqi navy did not actually participate in it, it would have played no role, but it was a step back to avoid provoking the Iranians.

Who knows, they attacked anyway, and they attacked hard. ≦≧

When the Iraqi side proposed that Qusai would come to Saudi Arabia, the king immediately agreed, he wanted to hear the idea of the Middle Eastern god of war, and when it came to war, there was really no one like him.

But is the Saudis really going to war?

"Yes, however, your country's air force is not suitable to participate in the war, and our air force has drawn up a thorough combat plan." Qusay's voice became passionate: "The Iranians' behavior this time has seriously violated the bottom line of human morality, and they actually dare to attack merchant ships, so in order to maintain peace in the Gulf region, we in Iraq are willing to completely destroy these Iranian anti-ship missiles that pose a serious threat to merchant ships!" ”

Fahd looked at Qusay's face, this person has increasingly revealed the unique momentum of a powerful leader, they already know that it is Qusay who actually holds power in Iraq, and now Qusay is like a cheetah in the desert!

However, it turned out that the Iraqi Air Force wanted to dispatch on its own, and when it heard that it did not need to use its own force to attack the land of the Iranians, Saudi Arabia did not have any doubts, and King Fahd said: "If the anti-ship missiles of the Iranians can be completely destroyed, then our escort will be much easier." ≦≧”

"It's just that most of the fighters in our air force have insufficient range, so after our fighters complete the bombing mission, they will not have enough fuel to return, so we need to borrow a Saudi air base, land, refuel, and then return to Iraq." Qusay said.

This reason was impeccable, and King Fahd had no reason to refuse, saying: "There is no problem, we will open an air base to refuel the warplanes of the Iraqi side." ”

Prince Sultan knows that there is absolutely no reason to refuse, in fact, he wants to send the air force to bomb the Iranians with Iraqi warplanes, Iran is too bullying! Actually attacked the merchant ships! This is a naked betrayal of the Great Prophet!

If you want to crush the Iranians' conspiracy, you need to completely solve those silkworm missiles, however, you can also send special forces to kill them, and the reason why Qusay dispatched a large group of aircraft is not just to bomb a few anti-ship missile launchers, in addition to bombing missile devices, he also has to bomb the ships of the Iranian Navy in Bandar Abbas, bomb the equipment in Bandar Abbas, and make this port useless. This is because many of the weapons that Iran buys from outside are delivered through Bandar Abbas, which is far away from Iraq and is not vulnerable to attack, and Iran's dependence on this port is becoming more and more important.

In addition to these, there are three islands located near the fairway: the Greater Tunb, the Lesser Tunb and Abu Musa! These three islands are very close to the shipping route, originally UAE, but during the period of the Bavilie dynasty, they were occupied by Iran, because they are too strategically valuable! Recently, in order to continue the ship raid war, in order for those boats to play an important role, the Iranians began to build bases on the island, so these wishful thinking of the Iranians must be shattered!

The bombing of so many places is definitely a powerful long-range raid by the Iraqi Air Force and a severe test for the Air Force.

After much consideration, especially after last night's naval battle, Qusay finally made up his mind: to completely clean up the shipping lanes of the Strait of Hormuz!

It is a pity that Iraq's naval strength is not strong enough, otherwise, Qusay would definitely order the Iraqi army to directly seize the three islands and firmly hold this route.

"Qusay, just last night's fighting, on an Iraqi oil tanker, it was found that there were armed men fighting against the Iranians, their combat skills are very skilled, I don't know if Iraqi zhèngfu knows about this?" Prince Sultan asked.

Quietly loading soldiers on the tanker without letting the formation know, although Sultan did not question this, there was still some complaint in his tone that Iraq was not doing it properly.

This Qusay naturally knew that because the entire course of the incident was reported back by Marwan by radio, and in that situation at that time, it was completely understandable that the Sidewinder special forces temporarily changed their battle plan to protect the safety of the ship. Kusai can't deny this.

"So, what does the Prince think of them?" Qusay asked.

"Very well done." Sultan said. Although Iraq did not do a good job this time, it played a great role in the battle against the Iranian boats.

"This is my second proposal." "In addition to continuing to escort ships with ships, we also need to deploy a few special combat personnel on each ship that needs to be escorted to deal with the boats that are approaching, and there is no particularly good solution for the escort ships, and we cannot equip the merchant ships with weapons and use well-trained soldiers to protect the ships, which is similar to the escort in the Somali waters in later generations," Qusay said.

"In order to be able to protect merchant ships well, we need to select Jingying from all countries to participate, if the number is not enough, we in Iraq are willing to send a small team of 50 people to join this task of escorting merchant ships." Qusay said.

Adding a few armed personnel to the merchant ship is naturally a good proposal, and among all countries, if there is a combat experience, it is the Iraqi military. King Fahd nodded in agreement.

Saudi Arabia has always wanted Iraq to get involved, for fear of complicating the situation, but now it seems that Iran is basically going to completely cut off this route, so Saudi Arabia cannot be too rigid. (To be continued.) To be continued
