Dominate South Asia

Bush Sr. did not have a good impression of Pakistan. Although Pakistan agreed to the Americans' request and cooperated very cooperatively in providing military bases, the United States spent a lot of money.

Billions of dollars in military aid, and even the catapult, which the United States is most proud of and has never exported, were provided to Pakistan, but what did it get in exchange?

The Iraqis had just evacuated Kuwait, and the Pakistanis just slapped their butts and left!

The originally good coalition army, in addition to the British, the younger brother of the Americans, and the multinational forces of Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Bahrain... many countries participated, looked like messengers of justice. However, when the Iraqis suddenly ran away, these The military no longer follows the United States.

The most angry thing is probably the conditions proposed by Iraq, which agreed to Kuwait's return to the country but did not agree to allow multinational troops to station in it!

The United States has killed and injured tens of thousands of people and spent hundreds of billions. What is it trying to achieve? Isn't it just stationing troops in the Gulf? Fortunately, now, they actually agreed to Iraq's proposal not to allow coalition forces to enter!

Although the United States is still entering with great fanfare, with the attitude of a victorious nation, everyone knows that the United States is trying to make a fool of itself, and the whole world is watching the joke of the United States.

The most important thing in this matter is Pakistan’s attitude! These guys actually turned their backs on the United States at a critical moment!

Now, at this time, Pakistan has provided the United States with 200 computers. Is that guy Mhamad so stingy? Bush wants to wave his hand, but we don’t want it! However, after being depressed for a long time, Bush still nodded: "In this case, on behalf of the government, I would like to express my gratitude to Pakistan."

"Yes," Baker said. The friendship between Pakistan and the United States is probably only as deep as these 200 computers.

"Mr. President, our most important thing now is to cope with this economic winter." Finance Minister Nicholas said.

The economy was originally in a slump, but now, just because of an Internet virus epidemic, it has become the last straw to crush the U.S. economy. If the U.S. has not taken strong measures to save its economy, Bush Sr. Stepping down is imminent.

Lots of newspapers and media outlets. Everyone calls the current economic situation another cold winter. In this season that is about to enter summer, the U.S. economy is entering winter.

Baker was silent on the side. Before Bush Sr. came to power, Baker served as Treasury Secretary under Reagan and single-handedly presided over the Plaza Accord. He hoped to save the U.S. economy by shaving the wool of the islanders. As a result, the benefits were not reaped. A gray nose.

Now. How to save the U.S. economy is Nicholas's business, and Baker is still not involved.

This time it didn't embarrass Nicholas. Bush looked at the world map hanging on the wall, and his eyes stayed on the location of the Middle East.

To manage the economy, we can save various expenditures, invest funds in economic construction, and reduce taxes to stimulate economic development. These methods will have certain negative effects and will cause dissatisfaction among some people. Especially for a politician like George H.W. Bush, he would feel embarrassed if he was asked to save government spending for the sake of economic development.

Bush was a politician and a soldier. For him, he had a better choice.

war! War is also a catalyst. War can stimulate the rapid growth of military industry, and military industry. It will also drive the development of a lot of other industries, which can also become the driving force for economic development. At the same time, military wars will also divert the attention of the domestic people and reduce their complaints against the government. Directing their hatred towards hostile countries is also a good way!

Iraq exists. This is the biggest danger in the Gulf region. Only by allowing Saddam Hussein's regime to perish, replacing it with a moderate puppet government, and allowing pro-Soviet Iraq to turn toward the United States, will the Gulf have a bright future!

When Bush Sr. thought of this, his eyes became extremely firm. What did Saddam rely on? Scud missiles? Did he think this weapon could change Iraq's weak military power? War is ultimately a comparison of comprehensive national strength! Iraq, which relies on imported equipment to fight the war, has no industry whatsoever, so what can it do with fighting the United States?

"How is the progress of our defense research on Scud missiles?" Thinking of this, Bush asked Secretary of Defense Dick Cheney.

Strategically despising his opponents and tactically paying attention to them, Bush Sr. will not let Iraq's Scud missiles come overwhelmingly again, causing heavy casualties to his own side.

"Raytheon has improved the Patriot missile system. It will calibrate the time every two hours to prevent the system's time error from reducing the interception accuracy. At the same time, it has improved the explosion time of the proximity fuse, mainly to destroy the warhead. Goal," Cheney said.

The Patriot missile was originally intended as an anti-aircraft system. The missile uses a proximity fuze. The missile explodes close to the target to destroy or disable the target. Since the missile is aimed at the center of mass of the target, there is no problem when dealing with aircraft. However, when dealing with high-speed flying Scud missiles, when the warhead explodes, the Scud missile has already flown past, and the Patriot can usually only hit its tail. , rather than its warhead.

Through these optimizations, Raytheon confidently ensures that its Patriot missiles can achieve better anti-ballistic missile effects, especially in intercepting such backward Scud missiles. Moreover, it has increased firepower density and used four missiles to intercept A Scud missile strives to achieve a 100% interception rate.

But...if it's just these, it's not enough.

"Our technical staff found an unexploded warhead in a desert outside Dhahran." Admiral Schwarzkopf said: "Through research and analysis, we discovered these Iraqi Scud missiles. A large number of civilian chips are used to improve guidance accuracy.”

The unexploded warhead was only discovered recently. The Scud missile's high accuracy puzzled the Americans. When they took the warhead apart, they discovered that the Iraqis used civilian chips to improve the accuracy of the missile. The accuracy is all purchased from the Western European market, but the clumsy and rough circuit design style is definitely a Soviet technique.

Using civilian chips can reduce costs and improve performance. However, a very important weakness of civilian chips is that they cannot resist electromagnetic interference!

The error of the original Scud missile was more than 500 meters, which is the improved accuracy of the terminal guidance. As long as electromagnetic interference devices are deployed in key areas of one's side, the Iraqi Scud missiles will be strongly interfered with. The failure of terminal guidance will greatly reduce the pressure on one's own side!

Although the Patriot missile has limited cross-country capabilities and cannot accompany the army in field air defense, the army is inherently on the move. As long as the route of action is not leaked and interference devices are added, their Scud missiles can be disabled.

With these multiple protection capabilities, it would be difficult for the Scud missile to become a major killer again.

After hearing the answers from Cheney and General Schwarzkopf, Bush Sr. finally relaxed. His eyes swept across everyone's faces, and finally looked at General Schwarzkopf.

"Schwarzkopf, I hope our military will not let us down this time." Bush said: "We need to destroy Saddam's regime, support a government that is beneficial to us, and we must protect our ally Kuwait. and Saudi Arabia’s security, we must make our previous fight count!”

Bush Sr.'s hopes were high. Facing Bush Sr.'s gaze, General Schwarzkopf felt a little excited: "Mr. President, please rest assured that the military will fight for the interests of our United States!"

After a temporary defeat last time, General Schwarzkopf also worked hard. This time, he must show Iraq his true strength!

What is lost on the battlefield must be regained on the battlefield. General Schwarzkopf is very grateful to the president for giving him this opportunity.

"We have found out that the source of this sudden virus is Iraq." White House spokesman Fitzwater faced the reporter's camera and said angrily: "The virus invasion in Iraq has caused our U.S. network to be damaged." The system is completely paralyzed, leading to a sharp decline in our economy. We sternly warn the Iraqi government that there will be a price for all this!"

Virus in Iraq! Upon hearing the news, reporters at the scene were buzzing.

Iraq! If a biological virus can appear in Iraq, is it also possible, a computer virus? In an Iraq that has gone through the Iran-Iraq war for ten years, the computer penetration rate in the country is less than 1%, and even the computers in key universities are antique models from five years ago, it will be able to create this kind of extremely destructive power. , let the United States be unable to defend against computer viruses?

I don’t know if Saddam should be proud or ashamed after getting this news. A rare computer genius has appeared in Iraq?

However, this excuse was just a fig leaf. Just after the White House spokesperson announced the results of the investigation, in order to teach the hateful Iraq a lesson and to avenge the American people, American fighter planes, loaded with bombs, roared across the border. , launched a violent attack on Iraq.

Bush was angry, and the consequences were serious. Later, he gave a speech in person. Although Iraq had withdrawn from Kuwait, it did not agree to the conditions proposed by the US empire, including compensation for Kuwait's war losses and Saddam's resignation and international trial. The coalition forces We have an obligation to uphold justice for Kuwait! The United States will not allow gangsters like Saddam to continue to dominate Iraq! (To be continued ~^~)
