Chapter 631: Invasion of Kuwait

Although it is already October, the climate in the Gulf is still extremely hot. Kuwait, which is full of deserts, is even more prone to heat waves.

This place is almost unsuitable for human growth. The original Kuwaitis only lived on the seaside and relied on fishing. Their life at that time was hard but also happy.

Now, relying on the black gold under the soil, Kuwait has long been rich, and its per capita income ranks among the top ten in the world. However, in terms of military strength, Kuwait must be ranked outside the 100th place. It has a small land and a small population. The total number of Kuwaiti troops is less than 20,000, and some of them are mercenaries.

Therefore, if you want to survive, especially if you are a wealthy businessman with gold in your arms, without strong force, your wealth will definitely be robbed. Kuwait's method is to rely on the Western world, especially the United States. With the powerful force of the United States, who dares to use force against Kuwait?

Half a month has passed since the threat of war in Iraq. During this half month, Iraq has continued to increase its troops. There are more than three Iraqi armored divisions on the border, two of which are Iraq's aces. Armored unit of the Republican Guard.

If the Iraqis want to attack, they will advance to Kuwait City within one day. But, do the Iraqis dare?

The Kuwaiti people are very optimistic. Even with the Iraqi troops pressing down on the border, the Kuwaiti army remains as usual without any improvement in combat readiness. Kuwait's most powerful armored force, the main battle tank, is the M84, which is produced and improved by Yugoslavia. The T-72 tank was still in training mode at this time. It didn't even have live ammunition. There were only three or four training sheets in the tank.

This day is Saturday, and the officers and soldiers of the Kuwaiti army left the military camp last night. Returning home to Kuwait City, some even take a plane to spend the weekend in summer resorts in other countries.

The remaining people in the military camp are mainly mercenaries and some soldiers on shift.

The weather was so hot that no one wanted to come out. They were all in the barracks with the air conditioner blowing on.

In a wealthy country, the bloodiness of the people will be reduced. Hamad has never thought of sending troops to help Kuwait resist the invasion of Iraq. That was an impossible task. Under the pressure of the Iraqi soldiers, the Kuwaitis did not have the tension of facing war. They had no fighting capacity. They never thought that Iraq would actually take action.

However, on this day, Iraq really took action!

"Rumble, rumble." With the roar of the engine, the T-72 tank emitted black smoke and got into the narrow turret. Iraq's elite, Brigadier Jeboul of the 8th Armored Brigade of the Hammurabi Division, shouted on the radio: "Attack! Cross the border immediately and invade Kuwait!"

attack! In the rumbling sound. The 300 T-72 tanks of the Hammurabi Division began to head towards the opposite land of Kuwait!

The tracks stirred up the sand and raised it several meters high behind. Although the inside of the T-72 was extremely hot and sweaty, no one complained. The sweat in the tank hat kept flowing down their eyes. Still staring at the periscope.

This border is in the desert. In fact, there are no border markers at all. Kuwait has requested to negotiate with Iraq several times to determine the border line, but Iraq has ignored it.

And now, the Iraqi armored divisions are rushing through this desert, heading towards Kuwait City, which has almost no strategic depth.

"Report. An armored vehicle was spotted ahead!" The commander of a T-72 tank that hit the front spotted a Kuwaiti vehicle more than a thousand meters away.

"Destroy it immediately!" Jebel shouted.

"Boom!" A burst of fire erupted from the barrel of the T-72 tank, and a 125mm armor-piercing projectile headed towards the opposite side.

A few seconds later, the commander saw a ball of fire in his sight. The armored vehicle had been destroyed.

Go ahead, keep going! For the Iraqi army that has experienced the Iran-Iraq war. This attack was just a small episode.

"Get on the highway!" After leaving the desert and seeing the wide and straight high-grade highway in Kuwait, Jebel immediately gave the next order.

The T-72's tracks rolled directly onto the Kuwait highway. The entire armored force formed a long snake formation and maneuvered quickly on the highway. The concrete road soon became mottled.

If they were elsewhere, such a march would be simply seeking death, but in Kuwait, they could rest assured that they would never be attacked from the side.

In the air, roars were also heard, and Iraqi fighter planes, including Mirage F1 and Su-22, were all loaded with bombs and headed towards the military base in Kuwait.

Two transport planes were also in flight. Ten minutes later, they landed at the airport near Kuwait. When the heavily armed Iraqi troops got out of the transport plane, the personnel at the airport had no idea what was happening.

Control the airport, control the Emir of Kuwait! Control the entire Kuwaiti royal family! Let them sign the surrender document and recognize Kuwait as a province of Iraq. This will solve all problems!

On the contrary, once members of the Kuwaiti royal family escape, Iraq will be in big trouble. They will ask Western countries to intervene and intervene in the situation in the Gulf.

Therefore, controlling the airport and invading the army are carried out simultaneously.

After a desert rally, Iraqi armored forces passed through Al-Jehra and got closer to Kuwait City.

"Your Majesty the Emir, please leave immediately!" At this time, the palace of Kuwait was already in a panic.

The Iraqis are coming! They actually came! The powerful Iraqi armored forces crossed the border and reached the outside of Kuwait City!

The king of Kuwait is called the Emir, and the underworld where the king lives is the Dasman Palace. There is no doubt that this will be the ultimate goal of the Iraqis.

Now, the Iraqis have used lightning-fast battles to wake up the Kuwaitis from their dreams and tell them that Iraq is not afraid of any American force at all. Now, failure is doomed. In this case, the Emir of Kuwait must not be captured!

Prince Fahd, the brother of Emir Jaber-Ahmad-Sabah, said to the Emir: "As long as you are alive, you can organize an army and drive Iraq away! Emir, you must leave here immediately!"

Looking at his brother, Jaber was also in a panic at this time. He said: "Then how can I escape? Should I contact the air force base and ask them to send a plane over?"

"Our air force bases have been occupied by the Iraqis." Prince Fahd said: "Your best choice now is to go to the US Embassy. The Americans will definitely have a way."

Kuwait has two air force bases. The Ahmed-Jaber base near Kuwait City has been directly occupied by Iraqi military transport planes. The Ali-Salem base near the Saudi border was heavily bombed, and then Iraqi helicopters landed at the base and controlled the Kuwaiti base.

A lot of Kuwait's equipment fell into the hands of the Iraqis intact.

The Kuwaiti army lacked training, and even worse, after learning that the Iraqis were coming, they quickly changed into civilian clothes and fled.

Prince Fahd, on the other hand, was a determined fighter. He was very angry about Iraq's behavior. During the Iran-Iraq War, Prince Fahd once led the volunteer army to the front line of Iran-Iraq to help Iraq fight. He had also seen blood, and he knew the severity of the situation. He wanted to let the Emir leave first.

Kuwait's army was unreliable, and now they could only rely on the Americans.

"Report, Saudi Arabia called and two Pakistani helicopters will arrive in fifteen minutes. Please go to the Pakistani embassy immediately. The two helicopters will land at the Pakistani embassy." At this time, a royal family member hurried in and said to Jaber.

Pakistani helicopter? A call from Saudi Arabia? What's going on? Jaber's mind was a little confused at this time, but Prince Fahd on the side said, "Okay, then leave by helicopter immediately! Two helicopters can carry at least a dozen people. Emir, please go to the Pakistani embassy immediately!"

"What about you?" Jaber asked.

"I will stay and fight the Iraqis! Let them know that it is impossible to defeat Kuwait!" Prince Fahd looked serious. He had already thought of the reason. Saudi Arabia and Kuwait have the closest relationship. Saudi Arabia notified him, which proved to be absolutely credible. At this time, there was nothing to hesitate.

As for Pakistan, it is now a big country in the Islamic world. At this time, it must be without malice to lend a hand.

After leaving the palace where he had lived for decades, Jaber was still very confused. He looked at the scene outside the window. Many citizens had already known about it and were leaving by car. It was a pity that at this time, they who should have protected them had to leave first. This was a shame!

Two lines of tears flowed from Jaber's eyes. At this time, he had completely regretted giving the Iraqis 10 billion US dollars at that time. It was better than letting the people experience war!

Two large helicopters were flying close to the ground, only about ten meters above the ground. The six-blade propellers were spinning on top, and the two high-powered turboshaft engines were roaring. The fuselage was full. These were the CH-53 "Sea Stallion" transport helicopters of the American Sikorsky Company. Large auxiliary fuel tanks for transfer flights were mounted on both sides of the fuselage. The pilots on board were driving calmly at this time. In front of them was the Pakistani Embassy with the crescent-shaped flag flying! (To be continued ~^~)
