Luo Youbin came in by sending the fruit plate and pointed his watch in front of Zhou Yongtao, reminding him that it was almost 12 o'clock.

Lin Shiping was very sensible and went to the next tea room on the grounds of smoking.

After eating a few slices of watermelon, it was actually taking the time to sort out the words that Zhou Yongtao went to pick up the phone and microphone.

After discussing with Lin Shiping, we came to a conclusion that could not be concluded.

This battle can only be won, not lost!

To put it bluntly, the result of this war, to be precise, is the way it is carried out, which will determine whether the Third Global War will begin.

The key is the impact of the new round of military changes mentioned above.

From the standpoint of the Great Man Empire and the Newland Republic, the number one problem at present is actually the inability to accurately judge the gap with the Liangxia Empire.

If you can’t even figure out the gap, where will the chance of winning come from?

In Lin Shiping's words, if the Imperial Army's performance was unsatisfactory, the Third Global War would begin in a few months.

On the contrary, it may be a few more years.

As for the outbreak of a war and keeping the peace situation alive, that is a dream.

Not to mention the Tyman Empire, even the Liangxia Empire and the Newland Republic are on the verge of losing control.

The war ended for 45 years. Even after Schmidt, the former prime minister of the Troman Empire, delivered the "Iron Curtain Speech", the arms race after the war lasted almost 40 years.

It took only 20 years from the First Global War to the Second Global War.

The key is that during the two global wars, the great powers were also restricted by restricted arms treaties such as the "Lentine Treaty" and the "Huacheng Treaty".

The roughly peaceful situation after World War II can last for more than 40 years, which is not unrelated to the Liangxia Empire dominating the world.

In addition, the dominant advantage of the Liangxia Empire has always been relative.

The direct result of several large-scale local wars after the war, especially the Bo-Iran War, was to weaken the hegemonic advantage of the Liangxia Empire.

In the late period of the Bo-Iran War, the Liangxia Empire recognized the Republic of Newland and established diplomatic relations with the Republic of Newland, which was a concrete manifestation of the loss of its dominance.

Since then, the relative equilibrium situation formed by the three-legged tripod has become the cornerstone of world peace.

Unfortunately, this situation has become precarious with the confirmation of the hegemony of the Republic of Newland and the crazy expansion of the Continental Group.

However, no one dares to deny that the Liangxia Empire is still the world's first dominant.

Compare military strength.

The total strength of Liang Xia's army is as high as 2.2 million, with more than 15,000 tanks, nearly 20,000 armored combat vehicles, more than 20,000 artillery and self-propelled artillery of various calibers, more than 7,000 helicopters, and nearly 200,000 transport vehicles of various types. The combat troops have reached a total of 120 divisions.

The second-ranked Newland Army has 60% to 55% of the Liang Xia Army's troops and technical equipment.

As for the Tyrannosaurus Empire, even according to the Western Land Group, its military strength is only equal to that of Liang Xia's army, and the number of technical equipment is slightly inferior.

In the Navy, the gap is even more obvious.

Liang Xia Navy has more than 500 large ships with a total tonnage of nearly 3.5 million tons, of which there are as many as 15 large aircraft carriers and super aircraft carriers.

In addition, there are nearly 4,000 carrier-based aircraft, shore-based patrol aircraft and helicopters.

Among them, there are as many as 2,000 carrier-based combat aircraft alone, which are composed of 17 carrier-based aviation wings and 5 reserve wings, making it the third largest aviation wing in the world.

The Newland Navy and the Western Land Navy combined are not as good as the Liang Xia Navy!

Even the Air Force and Liangxia Empire have obvious advantages.

Liangxia Air Force has more than 9,000 combat aircraft, including more than 5,000 tactical aircraft, nearly 2,000 bombers, and more than 2,000 support aircraft of various types.

Among them, there are more than 1,500 transport aircraft alone, and more than 600 refueling machines.

This scale has a crushing advantage over any opponent.

Even the Newland Air Force, which ranks second in the world, has less than 5,000 combat aircraft, of which 3,000 are tactical aircraft.

But the problem is that the military advantages of the Liangxia Empire are no longer "absolute".

Simply put, it is impossible to form an absolute advantage over the other two super hegemonies at the same time.

For a long period of time after the war, the key factor in maintaining peace was that the Tauman Empire and the Newland Republic were not opponents of the Liangxia Empire even if they joined forces.

No force can change the situation where the Liangxia Empire dominated the world.

During these 30 years, the Liangxia Empire had been digesting the benefits of war and launched and participated in several regional wars for this purpose.

These 30 years have been the strategic expansion period of the Liangxia Empire.

Until the end of the Boei War.

Now, the Tyman Empire and the Newland Republic have the strength to join forces to challenge the Liangxia Empire. Can the roughly peaceful situation still be maintained?

The key is that from strategic expansion to strategic contraction, the internal contradictions of the Liangxia Empire have also fermented for more than 10 years.

On the other side of the coin, the Tauman Empire and the Newland Republic, which pursued expansion policies, did not gain much substantial benefits from strategic expansion. That is, after paying a huge enough price, the people of both countries did not taste the sweetness of strategic expansion.

It can be seen that all three super hegemonies need to transfer internal contradictions in some way.

There is no doubt that a large-scale foreign war is ideal, or even the only means to divert internal contradictions.

As early as more than 6 years ago, when he was nominated for the prime minister, Zhou Yongtao realized that his ability to obtain support was related to the increasingly tense international situation.

The main reason is that in the upcoming war, the empire needs a strategic commander.

If you want to say it, this is the same as sending Xue Yuanzheng to the Chief Auxiliary’s residence back then.

In the words of the current emperor, whenever there is a challenge from the outside world, an outstanding commander will always stand up and lead the imperial military and civilians to overcome the difficulties and obstacles of going.

This time, it was Zhou Yongtao's turn.

After he finished calling, Lin Shiping returned to the study.

Zhou Yongtao did not call Iraq's military dictators, nor did he have that need.

If he could call the Iraqi army gathered on the border and return home, he would definitely fight, but unfortunately he did not have that kind of personality charm.

That phone call was called to the King of Kuwait.

Luo Youbin began to remind Zhou Yongtao that it was almost 12 o'clock, just for this matter.

According to the promise, the imperial authorities will warn the Kuwaiti authorities and ensure the personal safety of the king and royal family members before the situation is completely out of control.

"All arrangements have been made. Our staff are about to arrive at the palace. It's time to watch the show next." Lin Shiping said, picking up the watermelon in the plate.

It is already midsummer, and it is the time when watermelons are on the market in large quantities.

"Do you think it's still time to call now?"

"It is only useful if Hussein feels scared that you call. The problem is that if he is really scared, he will call you on his own initiative. He has not called him until now, indicating that he is not afraid at all, so even if you call him, he is just asking for trouble."

Zhou Yongtao was speechless, but he made simple things complicated by different ways, which was actually a common problem for intelligence personnel.

In Bai Zhizhan's words, talking to intelligence officials will make you doubt whether your IQ is normal.

However, Lin Shiping said nothing wrong after saying this twice.

He has received support from two super hegemony, just "winned" the Iraq War, has millions of troops in his hands, and has the most technical equipment in the Posa Bay area.

What is Hussein afraid of?

The one who is afraid of should be the king of Kuwait!

…………

Kuwait City, in the palace.

When the middle-aged man with a big belly and a red plaid turban walked out, Lei Zhenting nodded to his companion standing next to the car.

When the companion opened the car door, Lei Zhenting turned around and blocked the approaching middle-aged man.

"Your Majesty the King, please come here." While saying this, Lei Zhenting held the other party's arm.

That's right, that middle-aged man is the king of Kuwait, Abbas III.

At this time, he had already seen a middle-aged man sitting in a white robe and red plaid headscarf sitting in the car. Although he had not seen the appearance of the man, his body shape was exactly the same as Abbas III. As for the clothes and outfits, there was no difference at all.

Another king?

Before Abbas III could react, Lei Zhenting had already taken him to an off-road vehicle.

It was not the royal car, but the car driven by Lei Zhenting and the others.

"this……"

"Your Majesty, this is for your safety."

Hearing the roar of the vehicle starting, Abbas III immediately turned around.

The bulletproof car for the royal family and driven away under the escort of several royal guard vehicles, leaving behind three security personnel cars.

"Your Majesty, it's time for us to set off!" Lei Zhenting reminded Abbas III again and opened the car door.

"Where is my family?"

"They have all arrived at the embassy safely, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is on his way to Riyadh, and you will be able to meet in a few hours."

"They all..."
