Dominate South Asia

The shape is angular, a little different from previous aircraft, and looks so sci-fi. This is the pride of the United States, the F-117, which is specially used to tear through the enemy's air defense system!

Although it encountered a flight failure during the invasion of Panama, the US Air Force still regards this aircraft as an ace weapon. Now, it is time to test the attack capability of this stealth aircraft!

This is the first overseas deployment of the F-117, and this is also a choice that the Americans have to make. After all, the F-117 is just a light attack aircraft with a maximum range of only 3,000 kilometers. If it departs directly from the US mainland air force base, it will have to go through at least four aerial refuelings, which cannot respond quickly, and the pilots cannot get enough rest.

Therefore, the United States has to send this magic weapon to the front line, and this kind of stealth aircraft requires a hangar with constant temperature and humidity. In order to allow this kind of aircraft to be stationed, the United States has to come to the original civil aviation base in Pakistan in advance to build a new hangar to accommodate these aircraft, so a lot of time wasted.

Now that the hangar has been repaired, a large number of military aircraft can finally be stationed!

In addition to the killer F-117, a large number of F-15 and F-16 fighters were stationed in Pakistan at the same time. The ace forces of the US Air Force, such as the 8th Air Force and the 5th Air Force, which have made great achievements in the war, have successively stationed in Pakistan.

At the same time, under the mobilization of the United States, other Western countries have also joined the war. Britain, France, Spain, and Italy have responded to the call of the United States and sent troops.

To attack Iraq, air force bases and naval bases can be arranged in Pakistan, and they are out of the range of Iraq's Scud missiles, but the army must be close to the border between Iraq and Kuwait. That is to say, troops must be stationed in Saudi Arabia!

Therefore, when it was learned that Saudi Arabia invited Pakistan's army troops to station, the United States would not hesitate to follow Pakistan's pace and use the name of Pakistan's allied forces to station in Saudi Arabia.

The United States did this, and Pakistan and Saudi Arabia had no choice but to accept it. Therefore, the 82nd Airborne Division of the United States was the first to station in Saudi Arabia. Together with the Pakistani armored division, it guarded the border area of ​​Saudi Arabia to prevent the Iraqi army from attacking.

At the same time, the army of the subsequent multinational forces continued to move in, and the command of these troops soon became a big problem.

After many consultations, the countries finally agreed to establish a coordinated combat command organization at the highest level of the multinational forces. In principle, all troops in the theater of operations are under the unified command of Lieutenant General Khalid, Commander of the Saudi Arabian Armed Forces, and General Schwarzkopf, Commander of the U.S. Central Headquarters. However, the troops of each country accept the orders and instructions of the highest authorities of their own country.

As for the Pakistani army, when it was sent over, it was almost in the form of mercenaries. It was to help Saudi Arabia guard the border, so it did not ask for the highest level of command power, but in this command organization, a position of chief of staff was left for Pakistan.

With the US Army entering Saudi Arabia, it means that the United States is finally going to use force to solve it.

Facing the collective interference of the Western world, Saddam also expressed his anger. In the current situation, Saudi Arabia's approach. It is simply inviting wolves into the house. The holy land is trampled by Western colonists. Saudi Arabia is the sinner of the Arab world!

In fact, Saddam had both a desperate madness and excessive caution in his bones. Many people analyzed it in later generations. If Saddam wanted to win the Gulf War, he should have continued to march forward after invading Kuwait, occupied the entire Saudi Arabia, and pushed to the Red Sea!

At that time. Even if the Americans wanted to attack Iraq, there would be no reliable place for garrison. Iraq occupied Saudi Arabia, and its strategic depth was greatly extended. Even if it could not win, it could still seek peace decently.

Now, like a nouveau riche, after owning the wealth of Kuwait, Iraq is satisfied. What they are doing now is to continuously send troops to Kuwait and prepare for a decisive battle with the Americans in Kuwait!

They don’t know that the United States is not Iran at all, and the war will not last for eight or even ten years.

Of course, there are still many stupid moves. Saddam, a fighter in the Arab world, will not stop until he has no way out.

Facing the entry of the Americans and the possible attack by the Americans, Iraq has also started a new countermeasure, which is to kidnap Western hostages!

Just 24 hours after Iraq invaded Kuwait, Iraq closed Kuwait's borders. At the same time, all Westerners staying in Kuwait were rounded up by Iraq.

Back then, Iran detained Americans in the US Embassy, ​​which made the Carter administration embarrassed and eventually led to its resignation. Now, Iraq can do the same. Iraq is not just detaining dozens or even hundreds of Americans, but tens of thousands of Americans!

"Citizens of all countries that have imposed sanctions on Iraq are not allowed to leave Kuwait until there is sufficient evidence to show that the threat of war against the Iraqi people no longer exists." Facing the American garrison, the Iraqi government boldly declared: "Once the West The world is going to attack us If the United States and other accomplice countries dare to launch an attack on Iraq, then these detained foreigners will be detained in military facilities, oil facilities, public facilities and drinking water purification plants that may be attacked by the United States. People will be the first victims."

Detain hostages from various countries and use these hostages to make them surrender! Saddam's method was a complete fool's errand. Under the current circumstances, the United States and other countries have obtained authorization from the United Nations. If they still compromise Iraq because of the hostages, it will simply make other countries laugh. On the contrary, this kind of action by Iraq has made the whole world very disgusted.

In the past, although some countries expressed dissatisfaction with Iraq's invasion of Kuwait, they also believed that this was an internal matter of Arab countries and should not be interfered with by the Western world. But now, Iraq is holding hostages from various countries and using ordinary citizens to blackmail the government. This is An act of national terror.

This kind of behavior is like the behavior of a rat crossing the street, and everyone shouts and beats it. Rising to the level of the country, this is Chi Guoguo's political blackmail!

"As long as the United States immediately withdraws its troops and lifts the embargo against Iraq, Iraq will allow these foreigners to leave." Iraq's spokesman said.

Saddam's performance angered the Western world even more. Originally, there were voices of opposition in the U.S. Congress to fighting a war in the distant Middle East. They believed that the U.S.'s current national fiscal deficit is very serious and that it cannot launch another war at all. Especially the war budget of more than 50 billion US dollars will make the US finances worse.

But now, Iraq is using the hostages as shields, and the country is full of passion. It has agreed to the new troop increase plan proposed by the Bush administration, and will eventually deploy more than 200,000 troops stationed in the Gulf. Only in this way can the Gulf War be won!

Most Americans came by boat, so the speed was very slow. The whole world was worried about the crisis in the Gulf area, and the time passed day by day.

At the end of 1992, Islamabad, Presidential Palace.

"We very much hope that this hostage issue can be resolved as soon as possible." Pakistani President Hamad sat on a chair and said to the invited Iraqi Foreign Minister Aziz: "This war has nothing to do with civilians, Saada "Mu is a fighter in the Arab world and should not use such despicable methods."

Mhammad spoke very directly, and Aziz's face turned red: "This is because of the sanctions imposed by the Western world, especially the economic sanctions imposed by the United States on us. We must do this."

"That was caused by your invasion of Kuwait." Mhammad said: "It was a very stupid act for you to do this. Now, everyone in the entire Western world is condemning Iraq. Your actions around the world The reputation is already bad.”

"President Mhamad, I was invited here this time to solve the problem. If you continue to make such sarcastic remarks, I will end this visit," Aziz said.

In order to help solve this hostage problem, Pakistan is making unremitting efforts. The main people detained by Iraq are Westerners. As for the original Arabs in Kuwait, they all set foot on the road home as soon as possible, and Pakistan has already Those who held their own nationality working in Kuwait were recalled. Before Saddam invaded Kuwait, they had all returned to Pakistan.

Now, it is mainly about helping the United States solve problems, which is a sign of Pakistan being more friendly.

Facing Pakistan, the mood of the Iraqis is very complicated. It has been a war for ten years, but Pakistan's economy has developed rapidly and it can produce various weapons by itself, while Iraq still has to purchase weapons from outside. , and now, after Iraq invaded Kuwait, Pakistan actually reached out to the Persian Gulf, rescued the Sabah family in Kuwait, and sent troops to Saudi Arabia.

These actions are a kind of betrayal to Iraq, but Iraq still has nothing to do with it. And now, being invited to solve the problem, Pakistan's President Hamad is even more sarcastic.

Aziz was also very uncomfortable and couldn't help but protest to Mhamad. If he said that again, what would be the point of negotiating? I won't accompany you anymore.

"Saddam should not use hostages to kidnap the entire Western world. It is impossible to achieve his goals. On the contrary, it will make the entire Western world feel angry towards Saddam. He is playing with fire." Said: "He is a warrior in the Arab world, so he should fight with dignity!" (To be continued~^~)
