"And, if the Iraq War continues, the Chinese will not get any benefits. Although they have oil fields in Iran, Iraq and Kuwait, after Iraq occupied Kuwait, the oil fields of these two countries stopped producing, and China's crude oil imported from the international level is only Iran. The amount is very small, and the rise in international oil prices will have a greater impact on them because their transportation costs have become higher..." Bush also did not believe that this was done by the Chinese.

"The biggest beneficiary of the Gulf War was the Soviet Union. The country's oil prices rose several times, and the supply could not keep up. The economy, which was about to collapse, was alleviated to a certain extent by rising international crude oil prices and insufficient international supply. The longer the war went on, the greater the benefits they gained!" Bush almost gritted his teeth when he said this.

Soviet talents were the biggest beneficiaries.

Logically, since Saddam came to power, the relationship between the Soviet Union and Iraq has been completely a die-hard ally.

All kinds of advanced weapons and equipment were sold to Iraq.

And now?

The Soviet Union turned out to behave abnormally and supported them to beat Iraq.

It’s not that the Americans are not clear about the ambitions of the Soviets, but they are already winning the battle for hegemony. The Soviet Union is not doing anything at all, and they are left with the last breath and not swallowing it. The Bush administration wants to attack Iraq. This is the original strategy. As long as the Soviets do not send troops publicly, they do not take them seriously. According to the various situations before, it only takes two months to completely resolve the Iraq war, thus causing international crude oil prices to fall.

It was only now that I realized that there was no possibility of defeating Saddam in two months.

"This matter must be given to the Soviets to give us an explanation," Bush said, gritting his teeth, "but now, what we should consider is how to solve this problem."

"The solution is to either change the previous combat plan and conduct assaults in the entire army. We have thousands of advanced fighter jets, six aircraft carrier battle groups, thousands of tanks and more armored vehicles. In terms of quantity and performance, they are much stronger than Iraq. Although this combat plan may suffer greater losses, it can resolve the war faster. After our entire army has put forward an attack on Baghdad, if we do not come out, we will eventually be able to occupy Baghdad..."

Cheney's attitude shows that he supports the operational plan after the change of the headquarters in the Middle East.

Iraqis must be taught lessons from justice.

"Our original plan was to cripple the Iraqi army so that they would no longer have the ability to interfere in the affairs of other countries in the Middle East and show the whole world our military power. If we occupy Baghdad, it would eventually go against our previous plan..." Bush was very sad.

He was going to crippled Iraq and then leave a portion of the army to continue to attack Iraq and maintain the influence of Captain America in the Middle East.

Then, when his son Bush Jr. becomes the president of the United States, he can continue to beat Iraq and make the US power grow continuously, and the government's desire to cut defense spending becomes empty talk.

Even many of his things were ready.

If he wins re-election, his term will last until 1996, and he will not be ruled by the Bush family in the United States for only four years!

This is also true in history. Bush Jr. was the first president to win the overall presidential election since the 1888 election, but not the presidential election.

If it weren't for the conspiracy, he wouldn't have won the position of president. And, because of the Afghan War and the Second Gulf War, this grandson won the presidential re-election that his father had not won. The United States under the control of the Bush family expanded its military force wildly and involved the entire world...

"We will not occupy Baghdad. We just need to achieve our original purpose and we can withdraw troops from Iraq!" Cheney comforted the president.

"If we suffer too many casualties in the war, the people will not accept it!" Bush shook his head. "The other is that once we occupy Baghdad, we have to occupy the entire Iraq, and our situation in the Middle East will be very dangerous..."

Bush's consulting team has long warned about this.

There is no justification for the United States to attack Iraq.

Iraq and other countries do not want them to intervene, and Kuwait also hopes to resolve the problem through negotiations. However, the US government threatens and tempts them. At the same time, the US government announced to the country that one of the most important reasons was that their military satellites captured the Iraqi army gathering on the border and could attack Saudi Arabia at any time.

On the eve of the war against Iraq, Pentagon officials told the outside world that according to highly confidential satellite photos obtained by the United States, Iraq had deployed 250,000 troops and 1,500 tanks on the border of the Iranian border in mid-June 1991, directly threatening the security of Saudi Arabia, the major oil supplier of the United States.

Saudi Arabia is the main oil supplier in the United States. Once problems arise, their economy will be even worse.

The Arab coalition was established completely under their coercion and temptation.

Otherwise, Lieutenant General Khalid would not have refused to send their Arab coalition air force to bomb Iraq's various targets at the beginning.

As long as Iraq is occupied, the entire Middle East will instantly turn from an ally to an enemy.

"And now, if we don't fight, our wreckage of our wrecked fighter planes will be stolen and our technology will be leaked. At the same time, dozens of surviving pilots in that area, and two special operations soldiers sent by special operations troops, will be isolated and helpless..." This is a war that the US military has to fight.

"There is no other choice?" Bush gritted his teeth and asked his consulting team.

They all shook their heads.

Without rescue, it would be a serious scandal.

It has been announced that domestic anti-war sentiment will be exaggerated and become higher.

If it is not announced, this matter cannot be covered up forever. As long as reporters understand the situation, anti-war sentiment may be higher and may even collapse the Bush administration soon.

"Where are we using our advanced equipment for remote support? Our heavy equipment is connected in the peripheral area..."

"If you can't contact me, the other party will not let them out. This is a trap."

Cheney explained Schwartzkopf and Powell's analysis.

"Since it's a trap, why do we have to go inside!" Bush stood up suddenly and his fist hit the table hard. "We can attack this area with long-range missiles!"

“…”

silence.

Everyone looked at their president in surprise.

If this remark is known to the outside world, the government will be overthrown by the people every minute.

This is completely indifferent to the lives of their soldiers, and even this will cause Captain America to not be able to recruit soldiers in the future.

"Okay!" Bush was not sure, but to vent his displeasure.

In the end, after a long discussion, they could only send ground troops. In that area, they could only send infantry and carry combat weapons without many electronic equipment. Their advanced weapons and equipment could only provide fire support in the rear.

The president signed the combat plan submitted by the Front Command, and then sat down weakly.

"I hope there will be no more accidents. Our army can lose equipment and waste ammunition, but we cannot die too many people!" Bush murmured after signing the combat plan.

If the equipment is lost, it can be made. If the ammunition is wasted, it can also be made by itself. Anyway, before the war started, Baker asked Saudi Arabia and Kuwait to pay for the war. The Americans used the war to sell all the costs of their weapons and ammunition decades ago.

This is a very profitable thing.

If too many people die and too many casualties, this is absolutely unacceptable to the US military.

During the Korean War, tens of thousands of people died and nearly 100,000 were injured in the United States; during the Vietnam War, tens of thousands of people died, more than the Korean War divisions, and hundreds of thousands were injured.

The people opposed the war, not the government's expenses in these wars, but the casualties...

Now, in the Iraq War, the Americans initially predicted the situation, using their advanced and huge air teams to bomb Iraq, kill all their ground forces, and then use the ground forces to accept the surrender of the Iraqi army. The casualties will be negligible.

But now everything has changed.

After the meeting, CIA Director Evik took a plane to the Middle East, and he wanted to take charge of the Middle East in person and make the intelligence departments there commit crimes.

The National Strategic Security Agency has also begun to investigate these situations in a comprehensive way. It is necessary to find out the source of these advanced weapons in Iraq and to understand how many of them are.

Baker benefited from the president and immediately summoned the Soviet ambassador to the United States and the Chinese ambassador to the United States, pointing out that the two countries sold weapons and equipment to Iraq.

The Soviets rolled their eyes directly, and not only did their family sell it, but the Americans themselves have sold it.

Now the Soviet Union has not continued to provide Iraqi weapons and equipment.

The Chinese ambassador said that China does not have the ability to provide such advanced weapons and equipment.

In particular, Baker accused China of violating the embargo regulations, and was beaten by the Chinese ambassador in the face.

The Paris Coordination Committee embargo list is mainly for technological blockades and embargoes against socialist countries. The embargo list for China is more than 700 pages more than those against the Soviet Union. Now, using this to accuse China is not nonsense?

Anyway, no one is afraid of a quarrel.
