The international community was in an uproar. Three U.S. aircraft carrier battle groups gathered in the Persian Gulf to demand that the government in southern Iraq release U.S. prisoners and return all First Armored Division weapons.
However, there was no reply from the government of southern Iraq. In the face of heavy American troop pressure on the border, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs did not even issue a statement.
This directly prompted the United States to submit an application to the United Nations Security Council to request that the United Nations authorize the United States to take comprehensive military action against southern Iraq.
However, this application was directly vetoed by China and Russia. In addition to the United Kingdom, France, another permanent member of the Security Council, directly abstained from voting 2 to 2. Of course, the United States cannot obtain the legal right to send troops to southern Iraq, but the US president has begun to visit NATO allies.
From the United Kingdom to France, to Germany, Italy, and finally Japan and Australia, they are obviously preparing to send troops directly without going through the United Nations Security Council [
But this time it is not the current Iraq more than ten years ago, nor is it the original Iraqi Prophet Army. It has the strength to defeat the U.S. First Armored Division, not to mention that Russia and China do not agree. Not many countries are willing to take risks and fight with the United States. People are going to start this war that is not worth the gain.
In addition to France, Britain, Italy and Germany agreed to air support, but they would never send a single soldier into Iraq. Australia and Japan are very hardcore and they are willing to send troops into Iraq, but both countries only sent 500 troops.
After the US president returned from his visit, he immediately signed the troop surge plan. However, another incident happened that caused an uproar in the United States and even amazed the whole world.
Although there was no response from the government of Southern Iraq, a video broadcast by Al Jazeera shocked the world. These are some pictures that Al Jazeera reporters interviewed in Basra. In these pictures, soldiers of the 1st Armored Division wearing US military uniforms were locked in a in the desert
Tens of thousands of people eat, drink, and live in this desert during the day. During the day, they have to endure the scorching sun. At night, they have to endure the cold temperature difference between day and night. The most important thing is that the Prophet Army only provides them with water and no food. These American troops are miserable.
As soon as this news was broadcast, everyone knew about the attitude of the Prophet Army. They didn't talk to you at all. If you want to be awesome and show off your force at someone's door, then the good people will directly give you the video tape of your soldiers being tortured. This is People's answers to you
After the broadcast, the US Foreign Ministry angrily condemned the government of southern Iraq for not abiding by the Geneva Convention and abusing prisoners of war, and submitted it to the United Nations Security Council to once again request the dispatch of troops. France did not abstain from the vote this time, but China and Russia firmly voted against the reason. It's simply because the US military massacred civilians in this sudden war
The matter has been raging for a week, and the United States has also become clear about the attitudes of China and Russia. Especially when it thinks that its allies are not firm in their stance, the United States began to soften. First, it withdrew two of the three aircraft carrier battle groups. The Persian Gulf then sent a special envoy to Basra to demand peace talks. At the same time, they notified the ambassadors of China and Russia, hoping that the two countries could contribute to the peace talks. It was like saying that as long as the Prophet Army is willing to release the land in Iraq, it will be easy to discuss.
This makes China and Russia extremely happy. Now that the Prophet Army has besieged Baghdad, as long as the capital of the northern government is captured, the Iraqi strategy will be completely successful. But after all, if the United States does not give up, there will be a lot of troubles in the future. Now that the Americans have given in, they are finally relieved. I saw that after negotiating this land, we can legitimately enter the rule of the Prophet Army.
The Russian fng minister and the Chinese envoys visited Basra one after another, but no one expected that Canglong would not see them at all. Even Prime Minister Vivian had an indifferent attitude and sent them to the Basra International Hotel without any discussion with them.
This made both Russia and China feel aggrieved, but they were here to be peacemakers, and they had to endure the aggrievement until Canglong finally appeared two weeks later. This prophet who was playing tricks on the Americans published an article as soon as he appeared. This eulogy is a tribute to all the soldiers and civilians who sacrificed their lives in the cause of Iraqi reunification.
But no one expected the unexpected thing that happened next. From the Russian Ambassador to the Minister of Defense, to the Commander of the Combined Fleet, Alexander, to the Chinese Ambassador and the Iranian Ambassador, everyone was invited. The content of the invitation was that they were expected to participate in the next memorial ceremony. meeting
They also finally knew what the entire southern government was busy with these days. A hero's tombstone had been erected on a mountain in Basra. The sign at the door had the name of the carver in Arabic on the National Heroes Cemetery.
When they were invited to the parliament building, what they saw was a procession of soldiers of the Prophet's Army walking in from outside Basra. In addition to their military uniforms, they wore white ribbons on their heads. Four soldiers of the Prophet's Army carried a coffin and led the guard of honor. Walking under the Parliament building
Thousands of people poured into the streets of Basra. People cried and sent these heroes away. The number of coffins reached tens of thousands. Not a single coffin was carried. A name was recited on the parliamentary broadcast. Even though it was just a simple sentence, it represented the country. Pay attention to them
When tens of thousands of coffins were carried across the square into the newly built National Heroes Cemetery, the entire Basra was in mourning. The honor guard who had been prepared raised their guns and fired at the sky for an unknown number of times before they stopped. At that moment, they stood beside Canglong and the others. of Russians were also infected by this sentiment
Only now did they know what Canglong was doing these days. Just making tens of thousands of coffins and just preserving these corpses was enough to consume countless manpower and material resources. Although for the owner of each coffin, the time it took for them to pass the square was Brief but it is the highest honor this country can bestow upon them
At this moment, many people thought of the completely different treatment of the US military imprisoned in the desert. But Canglong seemed to want to use this incident to tell the world and tell everyone the fact that what happened here will not end well for any invader, even the US military.
The entire funeral took about a day and a night, from the ceremony to the burial, to lighting candles everywhere in Basra, everything went on in an orderly manner [
This heavy funeral didn't end until the next day, but Canglong still wasn't ready to meet the envoys from several countries and just asked Vivian to entertain them. In his heart, there was a more important person waiting for him and a more important funeral. his participation
As a leader, he has fulfilled his duties. Now he is a husband and the father of a child. When he arrived in front of the mosque, the funeral ceremony had already begun. The imam of the mosque had already begun to recite scriptures. Canglong walked over quietly and saw E Mir was crying and Muslims in several mosques were comforting him
When they saw him passing by, the Imams and Muslims all bowed and saluted: "Prophet"
"Continue with the funeral." Canglong looked at Amir who was wrapped in white cloth calmly, "Today I am just a husband and a father."
The Imam and the Muslims were all surprised and then nodded. Their expressions were very respectful. Compared with the state funeral of tens of thousands of people, they said that the funeral of Amira, a holy wife, was very simple. In view of Amira’s contribution, it was appropriate to use a state funeral.
But there are people in Basra who will object.
But Soryu was the only one who opposed him. Although he didn't have much contact with Amira, he knew very well that Amira didn't want to waste money. In Soryu's heart, she would always be just a girl. It wasn't until the moment she learned of his death that Soryu truly defined herself as his wife.
He owes Amira and he must give her an explanation.
Emil cried very sadly after the funeral. Although he was still young and didn't know why his mother was put in a big box and buried underground, he seemed to know that he might never see his mother again. The man who was usually very cruel to her
But he can no longer see the woman who stays with him every night to comfort him to sleep.
The Imam finished all the eulogies and then began to seal the soil. When carrying the tombstone, everyone was surprised to find that there was only a short paragraph on the tombstone, inscribed in two languages at the same time, one in Arabic and one in Chinese, which roughly meant his deceased wife Amira.
tomb
Then two names were written below: Fu Long Hao, Emperor Emil, and Cang Long spent several days carving them in by his own hands.
"Dad, can I never see my mother again?" Emil cried and raised his head and asked.
With those innocent eyes, Canglong didn't know how to answer because he didn't want to deceive his son. But when he saw the smile in Amira's photo on the tombstone, Canglong suddenly smiled and said, "No, mom will just look at you every night."
She went to a far, far away place.”
"Really?" Emil wiped away his tears and asked with a puzzled expression.
"Yes, as long as you think about mom, mom will," Canglong said.
Emil nodded vigorously, and then Canglong held him in his arms and left the cemetery. At the door, Vivian was waiting for the two of them. When they saw them, Vivian took Emil and smiled hard: "Emil
Did you cry?"
"Yes, mom went to a place far, far away. Dad said she would only see me every night," Emil said innocently.
Vivian glared at Canglong and then said: "Shall we go home?"
"Okay, I hope the night comes soon so I can see my mother." Emil ran for a while and then got into the car.
Vivian closed the door and looked at Canglong and said coldly: "Are you going to keep deceiving him like this?"
"No, I just don't want to give him a childhood with a mother. Even if he has it in fantasy, he will never forget it." Canglong said calmly and then walked into the car.
Vivian was about to say something when she saw Canglong walking into the car. She followed her and got in, but was surprised to find that Canglong hugged Emil gently and actually fell asleep. He closed his eyes as if he had left this world.
