Chapter 551: Capture of Tikrit
Tikrit, a night of war At dawn, the war was over, and when the sun rose over the horizon, the sound of gunfire and explosions disappeared into every corner of the city.
When the Tikrites opened the door and walked out, they found the streets full of busy soldiers.
They began to clean up the battlefield after the war in the city, and the air still smelled of gunpowder smoke that had not dissipated.
The troops on the streets did not react to their appearance, and the city's radio was all broadcasting An Min's announcement.
Inform everyone that the fighting is over and that government forces have successfully recaptured Tikrit.
Is it over after a night of fighting?
Hardly any Tikritians believe in such a fact, because for them, it is simply impossible.
When the Islamic State attacked here, the weak combat effectiveness of the government forces had already disappointed everyone.
Within a few days, he was driven out of Tikrit by the Islamic State.
Later, although the government army also organized troops to carry out a counteroffensive against Tikrit, they were routed by ISIS forces without even entering the city.
This has made almost every Tikrit appointee, and in order to survive they have to accept the rule of the Islamic State.
A year or two later, the people here are almost so accustomed to the rule of the Islamic State that they have almost forgotten what the Iraqi government looks like.
Two years later, on an abrupt night, explosions and gunfire rang out, and then radio reports that government forces were retaking Tikrit.
This is in the eyes of many people. I am afraid that this battle will not end anytime soon. Because of the government army with a large number of tanks and armored vehicles. It doesn't seem to be very easy to deal with.
But I didn't expect that after only a few hours of fighting, it was already announced that the war was over.
It took less time than the U.S. army had entered undefended Baghdad, and the 20,000 ISIS troops in Tikrit had been wiped out?
Few people really believe such news, but they have to believe the picture they see when they come out.
That's when they remembered. This so-called government army, which was recaptured by Samarra last year, is very strong in combat.
And this army is all supported and developed by the Future Technology Group, and all the weapons and equipment are also provided by the Future Technology Group.
The combat effectiveness is much stronger than that of other government forces, and those ISIS forces that can once defeat the government army do not even have the ability to resist the Marin Division.
It also reassured a lot of people on the streets. Tanks and armored vehicles can be seen parked on the side of the road everywhere, as well as trucks collecting the bodies.
Troops. The city is controlled on both sides of the street, and no one is allowed to get close to those battlefields, and the operation of the city is almost at a standstill.
On the radio, every Tikrit was asked to stay in the house as safe as possible, and to ask for help from the soldiers outside if needed.
The troops outside will provide them with enough food and drinking water at the cost of prohibiting all companies and factories, as well as any collective activities.
However, at this time, no one will go out to work, after all, no one knows whether the war will break out.
When it comes to food, all Tikrites will not be polite, and they have long heard that the Future Technology Group is in the east, helping a large number of refugees under the war, helping them rebuild the city, and providing them with everything they need for work and life.
Originally, they had only heard about it, but they didn't believe it very much, but after they got the food sent by the troops, they all had to believe it.
At least, neither the former government forces nor those ISIS forces have ever provided them with food and drinking water for free. Everything must be bought with the corresponding value currency.
Here in Iraq, I am afraid that only the elders will give them food for free to settle their livelihoods.
Now there is one more, and that is Future Technology Group.
It's just that the Tikritians numbered nearly half a million, and when they all came out to ask for food, the people behind them were told that all the food in the army had been sent out.
This was a great disappointment for many people who did not have access to food, but the situation soon changed.
The radio announced that in two hours, a large amount of food would be delivered from Marin Town, and that it would be distributed to everyone.
Everyone is required to return to their homes and receive food with their own identification, of course, the household registration book is also allowed, and the amount of food received is calculated by the number of family members.
As many people in the family as there are, you can receive as much food as you want, and at the same time, in the process of receiving food, you must also register relevant information.
Those who do not have an ID card can also re-register, take a new ID card, and then there will be a certificate issued and they can also receive food.
This news caused Tikrit, who all erupted in cheers, since all trade and access between Iraq and ISIS were cut off.
Their days are all the same as Wang Xiaoer's New Year, and every year is not as good as a year.
Tikrit's electricity supply barely lasts for two hours a day, and the rest is all its own electricity.
If you have a little money, you can barely sustain yourself by organizing your neighbors and buying a generator to use together.
Those who don't have money can only bear the impact of no electricity.
However, these are not the main ones, the main thing is that the water supply in the city is almost all in a state of stopping.
The water plant in Lake Sersar, which is owned by the government, has ceased operations, and ISIS cannot afford the wages and benefits of the water workers, nor does it have the money to maintain the equipment for the water plant.
can only barely provide tap water to some of them, there is no water in the high temperature, and Nima's power is cut off, such a life is simply not human.
But in the face of the current environment, they can only endure silently, and can only go to the far river to fetch water every day, barely able to maintain their daily life.
What else can they do with those in the Islamic State? Under the control of the Islamic State, almost every household has had their weapons and ammunition taken away, and even those iron furniture are sometimes taken away, and all of them are dissolved to make weapons.
Otherwise, they would have rebelled a long time ago, because the most tragic thing is not these factors. (To be continued.) )
