Chapter 276 Let me achieve this gorgeous reversal
Chinese Zhou Ming is our last hope Salm sat on his bed and looked at Majid meaningfully and asked, "My cousin, are you sure you are not kidding me?" Do you really think that Chinese can beat those Americans with planes and tanks with a group of Kud bandits like pigs and dogs? Is it ridiculous?
But at least that was also an effort. Majid explained that from the way the Americans attacked, they were trying to avoid head-on battles with us, because once our troops and their troops were crossed together, their technological advantages would not be able to be fully utilized. So I think the kind of guerrilla warfare that Zhou Ming mentioned may be feasible, coupled with the Kudians' fanatical beliefs
Before Majid finished speaking, Salm interrupted him fiercely and said: Stop it, Minister Majid, your words are as beautiful as King Solomon's treasure to me, but they are unconvincing.
Presidential cousin, I don’t expect you to accept my orders, but I can hope that you will consider more for our Hussein family. Majid continued to persuade him with great painstaking advice that we spent billions of dollars to finally seize the dominance of this country through sixteen coups. Do you want to give it to those Americans like this?
Salm pointed at Majid, frowned and warned dissatisfiedly: Mr. Majid, I hope you can pay attention to your words.
First of all, I definitely understand the situation of the family better than everyone else, but now the American army has begun a full-scale attack and the army I rely on has also begun to surrender. I must make a decision before things get worst. This is the best way to preserve family power, because the Americans have made a promise to me that they will retain the legitimacy of our family's rule over Iraq. Salm said.
This word shocked Majid, because as Minister of Interior and Defense, the No. 2 figure in Iraq, didn't even know the news.
Since the situation was urgent this time, I didn't tell you in advance. Salm explained to Majid, but this explanation sounds like a saying that can be overwhelmed and cannot even be considered an explanation.
Faced with Majid's shock, Salm waved his hand casually: Okay, I have to rest, you can go out first.
Majid did not leave immediately. He looked up at Salm: President, I still have a question I didn't understand before I left. Although I don't know how you contacted Americans. I just asked if you can determine the authenticity of American promises or if you have been scared by American bombing and have lost the courage and determination to continue to fight with Americans.
You fart Salm yelled at Majid, you are a huge insult to me How could I be scared and lost the courage and determination to continue to fight with the Americans I am all for this country
Salm paused at this point, and then turned his attention to Majid: But you, why did you insist on waiting for the Chinese to come back? Is there any unspeakable deal between you? I think you should go to the cell to review your insult to me just now and your loyalty to this country.
Salm yelled and pressed the alarm button on his desk. Suddenly, the alarm in the presidential palace was made. Then, less than a minute, Salm's office was opened by the military and police, and everyone looked at Salm with a blank look on his face.
No one knows what happened, only Salm pointed at Majid and said: Catch him up for me
This order shocked all the military and police who came in. Everyone looked at Salm in disbelief. After all, as the guards of Salm's Presidential Palace, it was impossible for them to know Majid, the second leader of the country. So, if you want to catch him now, which one is singing?
Because of doubt, all the military and police dared not act rashly, which made Salm even more annoyed. It was not until he gave the order again with gritted teeth that the military and police suddenly realized that the president was serious and arrested Majid.
These damn guys, can you even ignore my orders?
Salm scolded hatefully, and then he called his secretary into the room and said to him: Immediately inform the whole world, saying that Iraq announced its surrender and was willing to accept UN resolution 660, which could withdraw troops from Kuwait on the premise of ensuring occupation and vested interests.
Salm's speech was recorded, and his secretary quickly left the presidential palace to go to the Telegraph Building. Then, at noon that day, the Iraqi spokesperson summoned news media from all over the world to release the news that Salm announced his surrender and accepted the UN resolution to withdraw troops from Kuwait with the conditions.
That afternoon, the news spread quickly throughout the world like it had wings, and it also caused an uproar in the whole world.
From the first stealth air strike on January 20, Iraq time to the time of February 19, the Gulf War has only been going on for exactly 30 days, Iraq announced its surrender.
In New York, countless Americans took to the streets. They waved the American flag and shouted excitedly: Seeing that there is no such thing as the powerful American power, far from being comparable to any country, even if Iraq is armed with all-Soviet equipment, what can it do? It is still vulnerable to the face of the great America. The war ended in just one month. It is really more garbage than Jamaica.
Not only in the United States, but people in other countries were shocked after learning about Salm's surrender.
Oh my God is worthy of being the only superpower in the world now. Only the United States has such a strong military power. Even a regional power like Iraq that dominates the Gulf can't stand for a round under the hands of the Americans. It seems that the whole world will enter the era of hegemony that the United States dominates in the future.
The news reached Yanjing. Even if it was already at night, all the leaders of China could not help but cheer up and gather in the conference room to discuss the situation in Iraq overnight.
Sitting here, Lin Zekang, who has entered the central core, first said: Why did Iraq be defeated by the Americans so quickly? It’s only one month since Zhou Ming has already gone to Iraq, and our officers’ regiment. Has the guerrilla warfare also failed?
Du Zhongyuan shook his head and said: According to the news from the embassy, Iraqi President Salm did not accept the proposal of guerrilla warfare and insisted on deploying the army at the front line. As a result, all the elite forces were lost after the first round of air strikes. Salm himself also encountered air strikes from the US military during a condolence activity. I think this is probably one of the reasons why Salm surrendered so easily.
A leader who was scared out of fear will naturally no longer have any will to resist. Yang Dingguo, who had never spoken, suddenly said, "I heard that the Americans tried their latest equipment and combat theory in this war this time, right?"
Faced with this problem, Lin Zekang, chairman of the Military Commission, replied: There is intelligence. It is said that the Americans first raided Iraq's radar station through stealth aircraft that cannot be detected by radar, paralyzed Iraq's radar system, wiped out Iraq's main force through an air ambush, seized air supremacy in all directions, and bombed all military facilities in Iraq day and night.
After a month of continuous bombing, the US ground forces launched a raid on Kuwait twelve hours ago, confining all Iraq's main forces to Kuwait. Suddenly, two armored divisions detoured behind Iraq and cut off their retreat. Two hours ago, 200,000 Iraqi front-line troops surrendered to the United States. Lin Zekang said.
If it were us, would there be a way to do it? Yang Dingguo asked again.
Lin Zekang shook his head sighed and said: I am confident that I can win, but I will never be as relaxed as an American.
So is there any possibility that Iraq will continue to persevere now. Du Zhongyuan asked.
If Salm announced his surrender, there was a little possibility before Salm announced his surrender, but now with Salm's surrender, the Iraqi army, which was on the verge of collapse, would definitely surrender to the United States in batches. In such a situation, unless the doomsday sandstorm broke out in Iraq, I would not think of any reason why they could persevere. Lin Zekang said.
After Lin Zekang gave the answer, the atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became extremely dull, and everyone was shocked by the powerful military power shown by the Americans. You should know that at the critical moment of domestic reform and opening up, the big brother has already kneeled again. It can be said that he has to face the overall pressure of the United States independently. Now that the United States has shown such a strong conventional military power, it is impossible not to let these leaders have a headache.
It seems that in the future, we need to learn from King Goujian of Yue, who is like lying on firewood and savoring his strength and keeping a low profile.
Yang Dingguo set the tone of the country's future in one sentence, and then he said: In addition, he would use all means to bring Zhou Ming back safely. Iraq's actions failed, and it would fail. Anyway, it was the Middle East that had no fundamental conflict of interests with us, but Zhou Ming was protected by us no matter what.
Judging from the previous situation where Americans dispatched hundreds of planes, Zhou Ming is comparable to the last large-scale air strike against Iraq, so even if he turns against him, he must be brought back.
Yang Dingguo's words were loud and the expression on his face was unquestionable. Therefore, even if Du Zhongyuan and Lin Zekang had any other ideas, they could not say anything at this moment, so they could only accept the order and say yes.
Lin Zekang then passed Yang Dingguo's order to the embassy. After receiving the order, Lin Hong, the Chinese Ambassador to Iraq, drove away immediately and galloped all the way for half an hour to reach the town of Hatruz, less than fifty kilometers from Badina. Here he waited for Zhou Ming, who returned from Sumore, and told him the news that Salm had announced his surrender and took him back at all costs in the country.
When everyone, including Zhou Ming, was shocked when they heard the news brought by Lin Hong, because no one expected that the situation would develop so badly. The worst result was that the US military had launched a ground attack. The Iraqi army, which had been broken by the US air strike, was unable to resist at all. In the end, the surrendered batch after batch, the front-line strongholds were removed one by one, and the gates of all cities in southern Iraq were opened.
Now I didn't expect that reality is far more imaginative than that. Mr. Salm, who lives in the presidential palace, actually chose to surrender to the Americans directly. You know, it's only less than thirty hours since the Americans launched the general offensive.
OK, Mr. Zhou Ming, it seems that Mr. Salm's knees are not hard enough, or he doesn't believe you and your guerrilla theory at all. Leya said to Zhou Ming with a tone of mockery and regret, then now I will take my tribe back. I hope we will have a chance to meet again in the future. To be honest, you are quite interesting, but your luck is a little bit bad.
After saying that, Leya waved to Zhou Ming and was about to leave, but Zhou Ming stopped her: Why are you so anxious to leave? It seems that you must think that the situation has reached an irreversible situation, right? Let me take you to achieve this gorgeous reversal.
Chapter completed!
