Chapter 097(1/2)
() After roughly understanding the whole story, Canglong was about to go to Iraq, but Li Ruomo stopped him and said: "It has been fifteen hours now. Even if you pass special channels, can you really save them when you arrive in Iraq? Even if you send a team on standby at xizang, it is too late. 。

"You mean to let them die for themselves." Canglong's tone suddenly became cold.
"You know that I don't mean that." Li Ruomo's tone became tougher, "This is not a question of whether to save it or not, but a question of whether to save it or not. It is a question of whether to save it or not. It is a question of whether it is an American trap and still run over. It is not courage, but stupidity."
"We have wasted too much time. I don't want to have too much trouble with you. This is a meaningless battle. However, today I have to make it clear to you. Team B was formed by me, and I have the responsibility to keep them alive." Canglong said simply and firmly, "Even if I can only get their bodies back, at least someone will hold a funeral for them. This is my promise to them, and the sacrifice you understand is just a piece of shit in my eyes."
"Is it worth it?" Li Ruomo asked.
"Value." Canglong nodded firmly, "Besides, I believe they will not ask for help easily. With the time Xiami stayed in the Central ** team, he should be very clear about your rules of handling things."
"Yes, they won't get too much positive rescue abroad, everything depends on themselves. We are not the US military, and we can appear around the world at will, which will cause too much trouble." Li Ruomo advised, "So, I hope you stay, if you really believe in Team B, because I don't want to hear the news of your death."
Upon hearing this, Canglong's heart moved, but his face was still emotional: "It is precisely because I believe in them, but they believe in me, that they asked you for help, but in fact they asked me for help. Maybe this is just a test. Team B members' test for us, maybe they really encountered trouble that cannot be solved. I guess it is the former, but I believe in the latter, so no matter what, this is their trust in me, and I have promised them that they will never sacrifice them."
"This is not a question of whether to sacrifice or not." Li Ruomo was anxious.
But Canglong shook his head and said, "If you don't use channels, I will find a way by myself. Anyway, I'm not included in the 15th game, so I won't cause you any trouble."
After saying that, Canglong turned around and walked out of the office. Li Ruomo gritted his teeth and suddenly said, "Stop for me."
Canglong settled at the door, as if waiting for her to say something. After a while, Li Ruomo's tone eased a little and said, "Since you are going, you must bring someone with you."
"Who?" Cang Longtou asked without looking back.
"I have an intelligence officer in Iran. She is very familiar with the situation in Iraq. I hope she can help you. This is the only thing I can do in my authority. The General Staff cannot let me act without permission. Even I will be reviewed without approval." Li Ruomo's face showed helplessness.
"I prefer you now than the tough guy just now." Canglong smiled, and originally wanted to refuse, but said, "I will take the fastest flight to Iran, and I hope she can catch it."
After saying that, Canglong left, but Li Ruomo's face turned red inexplicably. He stared at the empty door blankly. Li Ruomo said to himself: "Who doesn't like being kind, but you always have to compete with me."
Iraq.
People's impression of this country is generally chaotic and hungry because it is in this state most of the time. This is not only the reason for the famous US-Iran War, but also because after the US-Iran War, Iraq was deeply troubled by suicide attacks. Of course, this is a scene seen in the news, and news is often a concentrated and eye-catching approach.
This is like people watching gossip news. People don’t care whether this matter is a fact or not. What they care about is often this groundless thing. Whether it can become a topic of conversation after dinner, with a very clear purpose.
For many people, this may be a war between the United States and Iraq, but for a real soldier, it is not a war. No one will regard the competition between the world's strongest country and a developing country as a war. Only stupid military commentators will regard it as a war. If accurately defined, it should be a unilateral massacre.
Since the new US president took office, he has been eager to withdraw from Iraq. The US military stationed in Iraq has been deeply involved in various scandals. The most important point is that the US military has not found anything related to nuclear weapons in Iraq. Of course, Americans have always been thick-skinned.
The former president stole troops in this country under the guise of liberating Iraqis, but he encountered an unprecedented guerrilla war. During the invasion, they suffered almost zero casualties, but during the garrison after the war, there were heavy casualties.
This is not because Iraqis hate Americans. In fact, they do not hate Americans, because it is not Iraqis who attacked the US military, but terrorist organizations from other Middle Eastern countries.
When the U.S. troops entered Baghdad, the Iraqi capital, the Iraqi people did not panic much, but they were not happy either. The only idea they left was to wait and pray that they could still see the sun tomorrow.
On the second day after the US military occupied the Iraqi capital, there was a very strange phenomenon. Iraqi office workers drove through the Republic Palace where they were in office, and they couldn't even look at it and were calm and comfortable.
But this is the way for self-protection that Iraqis learned in Saddam's rule: in order to save their lives, never show that you are paying attention to what he or his family is doing, let alone comment. Therefore, on the first day when Saddam's era was over, the wisest choice is to ignore everything you see in front of you.
Most ordinary Iraqi citizens are waiting and watching, they do not support Saddam or Americans.
Because of the stray bullets of war, they will cry when they lose the people around them, but surprisingly, no one curses the Americans or Saddam because of this.
After the war, every Iraqi in Baghdad lost at least one relative in bombing or street firefighting, many bombs failed to hit the target but killed hundreds of civilians. Even so, the Iraqis still regarded this as destiny in grief, and were still satisfied that the Americans finally came to save them.
They waited for the Americans to tell them what to do, but the instructions did not appear.
