() "Damn Russians, do you think I can't deal with you if I have a few missile radar trucks?" Natasha was very angry at the US military base.
This attack was the first large-scale air strike carried out by the US military since its return to Iraq. Unexpectedly, eight Predator drones were lost in a row, and even an aircraft fu.
But the operation suffered a heavy setback at the beginning. If the media found out the next day that Basra had not received any damage, wouldn't it increase Basra's arrogance? Countries must think that the United States is playing tricks, but in fact it has no combat capability against Basra. .
At least she couldn't save her face, so Natasha immediately contacted the navy to prepare for a new round of bombing. Of course, this time it was not to dispatch fighter jets, but to use the missile launcher on the navy ship to launch Tomahawk missiles. Bombing of Basra.
"I don't believe you have so many missiles to intercept the Navy's Tomahawk." Natasha sneered.
But when she was making contact, the sea eagle appeared next to her out of nowhere and startled her: "Can you knock on the door when you come in?"
"Sorry, I'm used to it." Haidiao didn't take it seriously, "What are you trying to do? Do you still want to take revenge on him?"
"We just lost eight drones and an Iraqi pilot rebelled. Do you want me to sit back and wait for tomorrow's media to publicize our incompetence?" Natasha asked, "At least we can't let the Iraqi pilot live. "
"How much do you know about Basra's current air defense force? Do you know where the pilot is now?" Haidiao asked, "Although the rebellion of the Iraqi pilot was not premeditated, I believe that after you called the Navy, that The F16 has been dismantled and hidden in a place you can't find now. This place is probably their command post."
Natasha was stunned: "I won't hesitate to carry out a covering saturation bombing of Basra."
HaiDiao shook his head: "I know what you are thinking, but US military operations have always relied on the cooperation of ground or air intelligence networks to carry out bombings. Returning to Iraq has burdened us with too much negative news. I believe the White House is not I don’t want to bear the negative news of bombing civilians.”
Natasha calmed down, and finally put the phone back in her hand: "Then what should we do now? Are we just going to let him develop like this?"
"I've told you a long time ago not to get too involved with personal emotions, as this will affect your judgment and command." Haidiao said, shrugging, "Of course, if you insist on having your own way, I won't bother to dissuade you. , anyway, the United States will help you clean up the mess, but you will lose the opportunity to deal with him."
"Should we go ahead with the original plan?" Natasha was a little hesitant. If she had confidence in the plan put forward by the sea eagle before, then this time after she found out the details of Canglong, she no longer had so much confidence. and confidence.
"Iraq is so big, how can it be stronger?" Haidiao didn't care, "When we support the security forces and advance to the border of Basra Province, wouldn't it be easier for the navy, land and air forces to unite to deal with him? So until then, no matter how much trouble he causes us, we will have to endure it."
"Bear it." Natasha was very angry, because this is not the American style. The American style is to go all out and never be unreasonable, let alone tolerant.
"Then what can you do to make the United States bear more infamy?" Haidiao smiled, "I'm sure he is waiting for you to take further action now. Once you bomb Basra, tomorrow the headlines of all newspapers in the world will be What appears on the headlines is definitely the U.S. military’s massacre of civilians in Basra. You have to know that your Excellency, the President, is not sending troops back to Iraq to fight, but to help Iraq recover and rebuild. Although this is a guise to deceive people, at least you have to show your face and know that ."
"You really know the people in the parliament." Natasha nodded. In fact, she knew these truths, but she just couldn't swallow this breath.
"If I didn't know them well, I would have been killed by their guns long ago." Sea Eagle smiled, remembering his past, "Let's make a bet."
"What are you betting on?" Natasha said.
"Let's bet that tomorrow's newspapers will definitely surprise you." Hai Diao smiled and said, "Actually, this is just the trick he is playing around with, using the power of the media to raise anti-war sentiment in the country, so that those in the Congress will have to If you are constrained, you will be under greater pressure, but if you do your thing with peace of mind and leave him with no excuse, what can he do to you."
Natasha calmed down a bit, nodded and said, "What a surprise."
"You wait and see. If nothing unexpected happens, continue to contact the navy. One night is not very long. For the powerful US Navy, destroying Basra is not a problem at all, and it does not require any time." Haidiao said calmly.
Natasha didn't know where he came from with so many excuses, but she still nodded. There is an old saying in China, "The older you are, the hotter you are." Natasha believed this saying, at least it is very reliable when it applies to sea eagles.
By the next day, the headlines around the world were really unexpected. The first was reports from various countries’ media on the changes in Basra. According to Reuters, Basra is now a city of miracles. The Prophet’s Army has achieved something that the Americans and British have never done. What we have done has solved the hunger and poverty in Basra.
Al Jazeera’s report was even more surprising. They played an interview video that made the whole world unable to believe that it was actually Basra, a city that has been cared for by war for decades. The reporter directly said that Basra is the city of hope in Iraq. .
Although reporters from various countries have mixed reviews, most of them tend to favor Basra. Most of them report on the United States and Iraq. They say that the United States' return to Iraq is a mistake and that it uses taxpayers' money to serve the parliamentary consortium. , the miracle in Basra is a satire of the American government. The U.S. Congress and the White House should launch a national reflection.
The British BBC reported a novel news, saying that the Baghdad security forces and the US military launched an air strike on Basra last night, and released a set of photos. The things mentioned in this set of photos shocked the military of various countries, because the photos Anti-aircraft missiles actually appeared here.
The BBC commentator said that the advanced missile launched by Basra in the US air strike last night successfully destroyed several US Predator drones. Now Iraq's airspace is no longer defenseless.
Of course, there is another hot news, but it has been suppressed by all countries. However, this news was broadcast in Iran and Arab countries, saying that an airman from the Iraqi security forces landed in Basra in Iraq's only F16C. The airport, apparently surrendered.
In the US military base, Natasha's face was very ugly. Facing the overwhelming media reports, especially the disguised satire, many anti-war demonstrations took place in European and American countries, and even called for the complete withdrawal of US troops from Iraq. The most terrifying thing is, Some people actually called for the dissolution of the Iraqi National Assembly and the reorganization of the government in Basra.
"How about it? Are you still preparing to launch a saturation strike on Basra?" Sea Eagle asked.
Natasha shook her head helplessly. If she had asked the navy to carry out a strike yesterday, today's news would probably not be a satire, but a condemnation from the whole world. The United States might even be accused of a crime against humanity, just because Basra created Miracle, it was even more prosperous than Baghdad now.
And Basra has solved all the problems that the new government and the US military have spent more than ten years in Iraq without solving them, without even using the oil there.
"This guy is so cunning. I used to think that he was only good in the field of killers, but I didn't expect that he was also good at politics." Natasha said helplessly.
"A person who can become the world's number one killer will naturally not be so simple. There is an old Chinese saying that there is no good person under the reputation." Hai Diao said indifferently.
At the same time, in Basra, Soryu looked confused. When Vivian came to report to him, Soryu asked: "There is no movement from the US military."
"What else do you want them to do?" Vivian asked.
"It's really strange. From what I know about her, she will definitely fight back. How could she die after suffering such a big loss?" Canglong looked strange.
"You just rest, you have taken such a big advantage and you are still acting like a good boy here." Vivian glanced at him angrily and handed him a document, "This is a piece of news just released by Fu, saying that the reason why we The reason why Iraq can be built so well is because of secret oil extraction.”
"Oh." Canglong took the document, looked at it, and threw it aside, "It seems they started to act rogue."
"But we have also encountered problems. Last night's air raid and the tense atmosphere have severely dampened the confidence of investors. Although we intercepted the US bombing, they are still worried that a war will break out here at any time." Weiwei. An said.
"It's not surprising." Canglong smiled, "Let the provincial government hold a press conference and inform the media that no matter what happens in Basra, it will remain completely open and welcome investors from all over the world. In addition, the Prophet Army will protect All investments in Basra Province, no matter which country invades, the Prophet Army will make it impossible for them to come back, and Basra will not engage in du cai."
Vivian nodded and recorded it, but the last one made her face change, and she said sarcastically: "Aren't you in du cai now?"
"Are you sure I am du cai." Canglong defended with a smile, "I am carrying the hope of the people, I cannot be called du cai."
"Anyway, whatever you say makes sense." Vivian said with a sarcastic face. Fu is acting rogue, and the Americans are beginning to tolerate it again, so we have to strike while the iron is hot and beat them up. Don't save me, the Americans dare to send out planes to bomb, Let’s use them as targets and training troops.”
"This way you won't be afraid of overwhelming the Americans, and you won't be afraid of being detected by showing off all the missile units." Vivian asked.
"You would think so, but Natasha wouldn't think so. If I show it out, she will definitely think that I have more missiles hidden. In fact, I have nothing, but I just want to show it out. What can she do to me?" Canglong smiled.
"How mean." After saying that, Vivian turned and left.
