Forced by the situation in Iraq, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Clark and others had to reconsider the invasion of Afghanistan. Alawit was curious, wondering what other outstanding performances this young man could perform. Even Iran knows how powerful Afghanistan is, so from the beginning to the end, Iran has not had any thoughts about this neighboring country.
Will the Prophet Army follow in the footsteps of the US Army and the Soviet Army? A practical question suddenly appeared in Alawit's mind. Afghanistan is just like Russia back then, whether it was Napoleon who swept across Europe or Hitler who came after him. , confident that they could conquer Russia, but in the end not only did they lose their troops, but they also led to the collapse of the empire.
The same is true in Afghanistan. The Soviet Union and the United States both invaded this country in the shortest time, but they also failed in this country.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar looked at the map seriously. He touched his chin and thought about something. He felt like a leader, but his immatureness still showed his age, which created an extreme contrast.
Sitting in the staff office, Canglong was not anxious at all. He drank tea and waited for Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's answer.[
After half an hour passed, everyone thought that it was impossible for Kareem Abdul-Jabbar to come up with a solution. After all, no experienced general here would be able to come up with a perfect solution. But at this moment, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar suddenly said : "Prophet, I want to know the significance of this war."
"Meaning." Canglong smiled, "Connecting things."
"In other words, we don't need to rule Afghanistan, right?" Jabbar caught something and immediately asked.
"Yes." Canglong nodded.
"So, you must have been prepared for a long time. If my guess is correct, either you have contact with the Taliban or you have contact with the current government of Afghanistan. If we can use any of them, I can win this war." , and give you a satisfactory explanation." Kareem Abdul-Jabbar said seriously.
"Haha." Cang Long smiled with satisfaction, "I said it at the beginning, your enemies are only the US military stationed in Afghanistan and those multinational forces. Drive them out. You don't need to worry about the rest."
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's expression changed. Sure enough, he had guessed it right. This was just a test for him by the prophet. In fact, the prophet had prepared everything long ago. It was just to see if his answer was in line with the answer prepared by the prophet.
"Clark, how many days did it take the US military to conquer Afghanistan?" Jabbar suddenly asked.
Clark, who was stunned, immediately reacted: "Four days, from the attack to the end of the war, it only took four days to eliminate most of the Taliban armed forces, but you should know the power of the Americans, so"
"I know." Jabbar nodded, turned to look at Canglong, and said, "If the Prophet can solve the Taliban armed forces and the Afghan government forces, I will only need four days to take over the entire territory of Afghanistan and open up the connection between Afghanistan and China. borderline."
As soon as these words came out, except for Cang Long and Susan, the entire staff opened their mouths with disbelief. Clark pulled Jabbar and whispered: "You are crazy. If you can't take it down, be careful to kill you." Get the gallows."
"I'm not crazy, I can indeed take it down." Jabbar said calmly, "But in order to keep it secret, I can't reveal my plan. I will issue all orders to all brigades and regiments in the early hours of tomorrow. You just have to It’s enough that it needs to be implemented.”
Regarding Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's confident move, everyone thought he was talking big. Even Clark and others thought so. But at this moment, Canglong said calmly: "Okay, I will give you the Central Guard Armored Division's reward now." With full command authority, you will be the hero of Iraq if you conquer Afghanistan. If you fail to conquer Afghanistan, you will have a gallows in front of the Prime Minister's Office."
After saying that, Canglong announced that the meeting was adjourned. Jabbar was stunned, and finally nodded and left with everyone. Susan suddenly asked: "How do you know that he will definitely be able to win Afghanistan? Although I don't know how powerful the Afghans are. But history has proven this, and it’s hard to live up to its reputation.”
"Intuition." Canglong only said two words.
Canglong really didn't care what happened to Jabbar, but a series of Jabbar's actions were all under Canglong's control. First, Jabbar asked Basra to send all the US military uniforms of the First Armored Division they captured to Zabol. These military uniforms have been retained, and the US military prisoners are now wearing prison uniforms. At the same time, Jabbar asked Alawit for about 20,000 sets of cotton-padded clothes from the plateau.
This made everyone feel that Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was indeed preparing to attack.
The Central Garrison Armored Division set off in the early morning, and 20,000 people crossed the border of Zabol and entered Afghanistan.
At two o'clock in the morning, when people are most sleepy, Daniel, a noncommissioned officer of the 3rd Army Aviation Company of the 10th Mountain Division of the U.S. Army in Afghanistan's Kandahar Branch, was looking at the display on the radar screen of the early warning aircraft. Everything was calm. He had already inspected it three times. , and this will be the last patrol of the night. Soon he can return to the military camp, take a hot bath, drink a cup of hot coffee, and have a warm sleep.[
For the US military in Afghanistan, a large-scale attack is impossible, so air warning is just a routine. They are dealing with the Al Qaeda Taliban, and the Taliban usually do not have aircraft, and some are hidden in caves in Afghanistan. Will be used.
The Taliban guerrillas know very well that there is no chance of winning in a head-to-head fight with them in airplanes.
Daniel inspected the last area and was about to leave when suddenly dozens of green dots appeared on his radar screen.
He was confused at the time, but he was not nervous either. If these dozens of green dots were enemies, the radar screen should show red.
So he immediately lowered his flight speed and began to use wires to connect to the other party's signal. Although it might be friendly forces, Daniel still had to make necessary inquiries.
Soon the communication was connected. Daniel first asked the other party to read out the control code, and finally asked what unit they belonged to. After getting a satisfactory answer, Daniel smiled and said: "I wish you luck." Then. Return immediately to the base.
The dozen green dots below are indeed friendly forces. It is said to be the armored battalion of the Mountain Division. They discovered a Taliban armed camp on the border, so they prepared to raid late at night.
The plane landed in Kandahar, an important town in southwestern Afghanistan. After Daniel handed over the flight records and reports to his teammates, he entered the camp to take a shower and sleep.
However, when he had just finished taking a shower and was about to go to bed, the commander of the base, Rodney, called him over. He was agitated because it was already his rest time, but he still obeyed the order.
Arriving at the command center, Daniel watched Rodney salute a military salute, but Rodney looked very unhappy. After returning the salute, he asked: "During the flight, did any suspicious targets be found?"
"Sir, we have found a suspicious target." Daniel told the truth.
"Then what is this?" Rodney suddenly shook off the flight report.
Daniel's expression changed, he picked up the report, looked at it, and said, "This is a normal target, friendly forces."
"Damn it, the armored battalion in Kandahar has a mission tonight, how could it be friendly forces?" Rodney asked with a livid face.
Daniel immediately became nervous, but the other party's answer and contact information were clearly friendly forces, and the control code was normal, and the communication channel was also affiliated with the US military. How could it be other troops? But Daniel also thought that the Afghan National Army had no way of knowing.
Their control code, and they do not have large armored combat vehicles such as tanks, let alone American-made armored vehicles.
He was about to explain something when Rodney said coldly: "Why didn't you report it to the command center after discovering the target?"
Daniel had a stern expression on his face, wondering if there was a need to report it. The control codes were correct, and the radar identification was green. It clearly showed that they were friendly forces. Why should he report it? According to the regulations, there was no need to report it, okay? But Daniel did not say,
Because he knew very well that Rodney just wanted to find a scapegoat for himself, and he just happened to bump into it.
"Maybe the special forces are performing a secret mission." Daniel contradicted, but he just found a step down for himself and Rodney.
However, Rodney still looked bad because the Supreme Command of the U.S. Army in Afghanistan issued a notice to enter the highest alert state a few days ago.
If it weren't for this notice, Rodney wouldn't have scolded his pilots with a flight report in the middle of the night, but he had to be cautious during this special period. According to the information he received, this information came from Iraq.
There were reports from multinational forces, and it was said that the Prophet Army would attack them.
Although this information seemed ridiculous, and Rodney even wondered if the person who obtained the information was a fool, this was the regulations of the US military.
But this has made the U.S. military stationed in Afghanistan very frustrated. Such ridiculous information has caused them to fly a lot, and they have to take turns to guard.[
"You go to bed first." Seeing Daniel's tired face, Rodney finally threw the flight report into the trash can. Not only would his soldiers not be able to stand it, but he himself wouldn't be able to stand it.
Of course, this is just to sympathize with the subordinates, and it has other meanings. Moreover, Rodney himself knows that dozens of green dots must be armored vehicles or tanks. In a place like Afghanistan, besides the US military, which force has
This kind of armored vehicle may indeed be used by special forces to perform classified missions, as Daniel said.
However, an hour later, Rodney regretted his decision. When he got up from the bed, a gun was pointed at his temple.
This Arab wearing a US military uniform was telling him in his broken English to stand up honestly and not to move.
