"What did you say?" Natasha's face changed in shock at the Baghdad Embassy in Iraq.
"I just received news that General George, the commander-in-chief of the multinational forces, asked us to cooperate with the coalition forces in attacking the Northwest Army of the Prophet Army." The staff officer repeated it again.
After receiving this news, almost all US troops stationed in Iraq were overjoyed. It was not because the reinforcements had arrived and they could reoccupy Iraq. On the contrary, for the 40,000 US troops in Baghdad, they were willing to leave this ghost place immediately. Returned to the United States and never wanted to come here.
So after the news came, the US troops in Iraq, who had been without supplies for almost three months, cheered up. They were not going to fight, but waiting for the coalition forces to enter Baghdad as soon as possible so that they could get supplies and embark on the journey. The way home.
You must know that after the United States announced the use of force against Iraq, all supplies disappeared immediately. Coupled with the repeated defeats of the coalition forces, if the supplies of the peacekeeping forces were not still there, I am afraid many of them would have starved to death, but the peacekeeping forces After all, supplies were scarce, and in the end there was a robbery incident, which shows how miserable the US military in Baghdad was.[
Later, Natasha went to meet Simon in person and assured Simon that the U.S. troops in Baghdad would not cause any trouble, so the Prophet Army sent them one meal a day of rations. Despite this, most of the U.S. troops were hungry. Countless people died of starvation, which reminded them of the Vietnam War in the last century.
Seeing that the staff was extremely excited, Natasha did not reveal any smile: "Where are the coalition forces gathering now?"
The staff officer looked strange and thought to himself that Natasha would not order them to go to war. Everyone knew what was going on. Let alone fighting, it would be good to stand up. After all, one meal a day lasted for nearly three days. Oh, but he still replied: "Assembled in Jordan, the total strength is 310,000 troops. If the Saudi and Turkish troops are combined, the total strength will probably exceed 500,000."
Seeing the optimistic look on the staff's face, Natasha looked at the map. There was no way, the US military in Baghdad didn't even have access to electricity. Except for the intelligence system, most of the equipment had been shut down, so she could only look at the paper map. .
Seeing the situation in Iraq and the location mentioned in the intelligence, Natasha became confused. It stands to reason that Canglong would not be so stupid. He had the advantage and did not fight back. In addition to the Northeastern Army, the other two armies They are all on the defensive, which is really strange.
But soon Natasha thought of something. She did not think that if the multinational forces gathered such a strong force, they would definitely be able to defeat the Prophet Army. There was a high possibility that the war would enter a stalemate. If it entered a stalemate, then the U.S. military would dispatch These 100,000 people, plus the 40,000 people besieged in Baghdad and the more than 10,000 US troops imprisoned in Basra, this is the consumption of more than 150,000 people.
As the war goes on and on, more and more countries will participate. If NATO fails to win in the end, the consequences will be almost unimaginable.
At least now it seems that NATO has a great chance of winning and has an absolute advantage, but
Natasha's face changed completely when she looked at Afghanistan, where there were 100,000 U.S. troops stationed in Afghanistan, including the 101st Mountain Division, which was as famous as the 1st Armored Division.
"If the Prophet Army attacks here, the consequences will be disastrous." Natasha said to herself.
The staff officer was shocked. He looked at the place where Natasha was holding down. It was the Afghanistan they were familiar with, but the staff officer wondered: "How could the Prophet Army attack here? Don't they want Iraq?"
"All the tolerance is just to bring more NATO countries in. Once they defeat the US military stationed in Afghanistan, they will directly open up communication with China. By then, oil from the Middle East will be continuously transported to China, and China's supplies will continue to flow. It is constantly being transported to the battlefield in the Middle East. The bigger the United States becomes, the weaker it becomes. However, China can take the opportunity to strengthen its national power. Even if the weak United States wins the war, how can it be compared with the United States that has made war fortune?" Natasha said with a look on her face. Frustrated.
The staff officer was stunned. He didn't expect that there was such a conspiracy behind it, but they were powerless at this time. What's more, what Natasha said may not necessarily be true, but if it was true, it would be terrible. , you must know that the United States started by making money from war.
"No." Natasha stood up suddenly, "We must inform the coalition headquarters."
"But" the staff officer looked embarrassed, "Our current intelligence system is not capable of delivering intelligence, and it is also completely monitored by the Prophet Army."
Natasha paced around, this was the first time she was so panicked. Although she was cooperating with Canglong now, if the United States fell, what would be the use of all this.
"Go to the General Headquarters of the Prophet Army." Natasha suddenly stopped walking.
The staff officer was stunned. Although he didn't know what the commander wanted to do, he still went to make arrangements.
An hour later, Simon suddenly received news that Natasha, the top commander of the US military in Iraq, wanted to see him. Why did Natasha come out during this period of hostility? [
Simon agreed while thinking. Soon Natasha came to Simon's headquarters with his staff. Before Simon could ask, Natasha said: "General Simon, I hope to go to the coalition headquarters to dissuade George." End this war that is bad for both you and me."
"Hmm." Simon frowned. Although he guessed a lot of possibilities, he didn't expect that Natasha came here because of this incident.
As the Chief of Staff of the Prophet Army, Simon naturally knew the plan behind Canglong. How could it be possible for Natasha to go to the coalition headquarters? Isn't this a plan to disturb them?
"What if you leak our military deployment to the coalition forces?" Simon asked, "Go back. As long as the US military in Baghdad doesn't move, we won't do anything to you. But if you dare to move, don't blame us." Treat them as enemies and annihilate them."
Obviously Simon also knows the current situation of the US military. In fact, this was his intention. Once the war starts, the US military in Baghdad will not pose a threat to them.
Natasha's expression changed, but at this time he was more certain of Canglong's plan, but Simon refused her. What could she do? Lead the US military to fight out. I'm afraid she would be bombarded by the Prophet Army before she could move. At least If half of them die, the other half will have to go back obediently.
Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly stopped and turned around and said, "I hope you can contact the prophet and tell him my thoughts. If he doesn't agree, I will leave immediately."
Simon was stunned, and was about to refuse, but then he thought that Natasha and the Prophet seemed to have some kind of relationship, and it was impossible for the Prophet to change his plans for a woman, so he asked his subordinates to dial the secret line, and the phone was connected after a few minutes.
Now, Simon explained everything about the situation here and asked for instructions.
Ben Simon thought that Canglong would reject Natasha's request like him, but he thought that Canglong agreed without thinking about it, and told Simon that he would protect Natasha all the way and send her to the border safely.
Simon could hardly believe that this was Canglong's order, but he still carried it out. This was not because of Canglong's authority, but because Simon still believed that his judgment on Canglong was wrong. Letting Natasha pass might also be Canglong's step.
It's just chess. After this game has been played so far, Canglong can't possibly destroy himself.
Even Natasha was a little surprised. In fact, calling Canglong was just a temporary impulse. The more she thought about it, the more stupid she felt, but she thought that Canglong actually agreed.
She walked nervously all the way to the border between Jordan and Iraq. After a brief handover between military personnel from the two sides, she entered Jordan smoothly and quickly took a plane to the Jordanian Multinational Force Headquarters.
When Natasha saw the suspicious expression on George's face, she finally understood why Canglong let her go, but she still wanted to say it and asked George to convene the highest military meeting immediately.
Although George was very dissatisfied with some of Natasha's actions, he still summoned the commanders of the multinational forces. At the meeting, Natasha bravely told her guess. She thought everyone would be shocked, but she thought
Most people looked at her with a smile on their faces, which was clearly saying that she was naive.
George looked very unhappy and shouted sternly: "Are you trying to shake the morale of the army?"
Natasha, who was suddenly slapped with a big hat, finally realized that her decision was completely stupid, because she could not stop this war at all, just like the suggestions she had put forward in the past, all of which fell into vain, which seemed stupid and ineffective.
.
"I don't think what Colonel Natasha said is possible." At this moment, another person spoke. This was the Israeli General McCain, who had always had an expression on his face. He was also the deputy commander of the coalition forces.
As soon as this statement came out, the generals from other countries looked at McCain strangely. A while ago, he had been disobeying the orders of the Supreme Command, and now he supported Natasha. At this time, everyone became more suspicious of his purpose.
"If the coalition forces capture Baghdad, there will be a complete stalemate in Iraq. At this time, the Prophet's Army will open up the transportation route in Afghanistan, and a steady stream of supplies will be transported from China to the Middle East. By then," Natasha continued.
Everyone's expressions changed. If this really became a reality, it would indeed be a fatal question. However, George didn't care. Instead, he retorted coldly: "Do you think the US troops stationed in Afghanistan are all shit eaters? First of all,
Not to mention whether the Prophet Army can open this transportation line, even if they have this purpose, what will they use to open it, their Iranian occupying forces? If they really do this, the US military in Afghanistan will keep them in Afghanistan.
The new Iraq that has opened up a third-line battlefield, so what if it has Russian support, it will only fail faster."
McCain stopped talking, because what George said made sense. At this time, Natasha was caught in a dilemma. The Prophet Army had already contained most of its troops, and it was absolutely impossible for Iran to use force against Afghanistan. So what would Canglong do?
When it comes to dealing with the U.S. military stationed in Afghanistan, you must know that there are elites like the U.S. 101st Airborne Division and the 10th Mountain Division there.
