"Our mine-laying operation, at the beginning, achieved some results and successfully controlled the cargo ship. However, afterward, other countries dispatched mine-sweeping troops to open up a safe channel."

"We can continue to deploy mines," Rafsanjani said.

"The Iraqis have laid mines on our coastline, and our ships have been unable to leave the port. We are currently conducting mine-clearing operations..." Ali's voice became weaker and weaker.

He wanted to continue explaining, but the spiritual leader waved his hand as if to repel flies, so he had no choice but to stop talking.

"Clear the mines laid by the opponent as soon as possible and re-block the strait," Rafsanjani said.

Ali went out, and he didn't see a scene that surprised him.

"Great leader, our current situation is very pessimistic." Rafsanjani said: "Originally, we hoped that we could hit the other side's economy by blocking the strait, but now..."

"Report," at this moment, a voice came from outside.

"Come in."

A staff officer came in: "There is an emergency situation ahead. There are signs of large-scale mobilization of Iraqi troops. It is very likely that they will organize a new offensive in the north."

Iraqis, about to attack again?In order to stop the attack of the Iraqis in the north, the newly formed infantry divisions were all sent over. Could it be that they couldn't resist them?

Khomeini suddenly felt a heat in his throat. He skillfully took out a piece of cloth and put it near his mouth, spit the hot stream on the cloth as if nothing had happened, then folded it and put it back into his clothes.

He knew very well that it was red.

With a glance, Rafsanjani found the bright red around the leader's mouth, and he couldn't help saying: "Great leader, you..."

"It doesn't matter, we have to discuss carefully how to deal with the Iraqi northern offensive." Khomeini said: "Maybe, we should send our garrison troops in Tehran to the front line."

………Baghdad.

As the war gradually progressed, the next battle plan began to gradually come together, but the Ministry of National Defense did not form a unified opinion.

If it was two months ago, then there must be no doubt that it would launch an offensive in the north and occupy the agriculturally developed areas in northern Iran. In this way, Iraq can achieve self-sufficiency in food without worrying about possible problems in food imports, and , continue to attack the north, and the ultimate goal is to take down the capital of the Iranians, Tehran!

However, now that the struggle at sea is becoming fierce, some people are beginning to waver. Perhaps, it is also very valuable to continue to launch an offensive in the south, occupy the long southern coastline, and prevent the Iranian navy from coming out to make trouble again.

Because, until now, the Iranians are only laying mines in the Strait of Hormuz. This action has been crushed by their own side, and shipping at sea has begun to return to normal. However, if the Iranians are smarter, they will deploy mines on the routes inside the Persian Gulf , the Arab countries along the coast have nothing to do.

It is okay to use Super Hornet helicopters to monitor the Strait of Hormuz. If it is to monitor the entire Persian Gulf, even if all [-] helicopters are dispatched, it is not enough.

Therefore, it is of great significance to occupy those coastlines. Moreover, after the occupation of Khuzestan Province, the remaining oil production areas of the Iranians are mainly concentrated on the offshore oil drilling platforms along the coast, occupying the coastlines, then , Those drilling platforms must also be occupied together, and it will be another income.

Therefore, disputes have always existed, and this also involves a very important aspect: the competition for interests between the Southern Military Region and the Northern Military Region.

Originally, in the era of Saddam Hussein, the northern military region was the most important military region beyond reproach. All new weapons and equipment were given priority to the troops of the northern military region, and the most elite Republican Guards were all stationed in the north, but Now, the situation has changed a lot. With the advent of the era when His Excellency Qusay came to power, His Excellency Qusay came out of the Southern Military Region, so he took great care of the Southern Military Region. The T-72 tanks on the production line, F-20 The fighter planes are all equipped with the troops of the southern military region first, and as His Excellency Qusay attaches great importance to the navy, the navy is also stationed in the south, and the proportion of the north is getting lower and lower. This makes the veterans from the north somewhat unbalanced. They look forward to making more military exploits and having more say in the distribution of benefits in the future.

Several meetings were held, and His Excellency Qusay did not make a final decision. Many people are guessing that although His Excellency Qusay has not said anything now, I am afraid that he has a better idea, because His Excellency Qusay is an Iraqi God of War!

Only Qu Sai himself knew that this time, it might really be a big problem.

On the issue of which direction to attack first, Qusay knew that he had to be cautious. With the elongation of the front, Iraq did not have enough transportation capacity to support two large offensive areas at the same time. Moreover, Iraq's logistics supplies also With the lengthening of the front, it became more and more difficult, and when entering the mountainous area, a truck with strong mobility and strong off-road capability was needed to carry out accompanying maintenance for the troops. The existing Soviet-style logistics vehicles in Iraq could not meet the requirements.

It is still unrealistic in Iraq to have a large number of transport planes like the US military in later generations, but it is still possible to have a large number of off-road trucks.

It is time for Iraq to introduce a large number of off-road trucks. However, it is best for this kind of off-road trucks to be produced in Iraq. Iraq can now even produce aircraft, and cars are absolutely no problem, but it depends on whether they can be imported. Come over this production technology.

"Your Excellency Qusay, in a few days, our Ba'ath Party will hold a national joint meeting." At the end of a meeting, wait until all the people are gone, Taha?Yassin Ramadan and Qusay said.

A national joint meeting?Qusay looked at the No. [-] figure in the Baath Party with some puzzlement, not knowing what the other party wanted to express.

"What was the topic of the meeting?"

"Our party's executive strategy in the near future, as well as the election of a new party vice-chairman, will be chaired by President Saddam Hussein," Taha said.

vice chairman?Qu Sai's eyes lit up: "Okay, I will definitely participate then."

Qusay has been holding the power of Iraq all the time now, but his name is not correct. He can only handle some affairs by manipulating his father's substitute, and his father has been unconscious all the time. Taha has already been keenly aware of it. Although Taha is not a relative of Saddam, he is one of his most trusted people. Saddam is still very accurate in seeing people. This Taha, after Saddam fell, spared no effort to help Ku Sai, so, he pushed for this meeting.

At this meeting, relying on Qusay's military achievements and contributions to Iraq, as well as President Saddam's relationship, he can become the vice chairman of the Ba'ath Party. In this way, Qusay can do many things more conveniently. .

Moreover, the long-term use of substitutes itself has hidden deep risks. If President Saddam is always awake, it is necessary for Qusay to become the new president of Iraq with the support of these people.

For Iraq, this choice is necessary.

"I've been too busy recently. I haven't been to see the president. I just have time today. Let's go to the Baghdad hospital!" Qusay said with a thought.

Although subconsciously, Qusay may have ignored Papa Saddam intentionally or unintentionally. It is precisely because he made room for himself that he had room for his own development. However, Qusay knew that at this moment, he must Just do enough.

For example, the reason why Taha tried his best to help him was because of his loyalty to his father. His father always only believed in his relatives, but unconditionally regarded Taha as his confidant. After the truth of the assassination, he also began to help himself with all his strength. All of this, the charm of the father is still there, so Qusay must set an example. Even if he becomes the president, he still cares about the father.

Taha was very touched when he heard this, and immediately said: "Okay."

Hassar was a little restless today. As usual, she checked all the locations and saw several cars driving outside.

Chapter 489 The president's poisoning has deepened again!

The only ones who could come to the hospital were a few high-level figures in Iraq. Hassar adjusted the surveillance camera to a closer angle, and saw the person coming out of the car from the gap between the bodies of several bodyguards. Top guy, Taha.

She shook her head in disappointment, and was about to shift her gaze, but saw another person getting out of the car. The figure of this person made her heart flutter: it is the Lord Qusay she hoped for!

She breathed calmly, and said through the intercom: "Attention, there are guests visiting, and do a good job of security." Qusay's sudden visit this time did not report in advance.

After finishing speaking, Hassar glanced at herself in the reflection on the glass of the door, she was a confident and capable image, she was the elite of the Messiah bureau!She straightened her chest and strode out.

Qusay and Taha came to the hospital. He was very satisfied with the guarding situation here. There were soldiers from the Republican Guard on the periphery. They were sent by Ali. Although no heavy weapons such as tanks were used, the defense here was also very tight. , They were only ordered to protect this place. As for who is inside, they don't know, and those who know the inside story, as if they were sentenced to life imprisonment, can't come out at all.

Although it is inhumane to do so, as a superior, Qusay knows that at some point, there must be trade-offs. These are all necessary measures. Besides, they should be honored to be with the great president That's right.

On the second floor, the agents of the Messiah Bureau on duty can be seen everywhere, and the doctors and nurses are also coming and going.

At the top of the stairs, Qusay suddenly saw the agent on duty. The figure was very familiar. The other party turned his head, his delicate face was full of confidence and ability. Although he was wearing the same clothes as the male agent, he could still see In that dress, with a devil's figure and an angel's face, the green chūn made her full of seductive charm. Moreover, Iraq's religious regulations are not very strict, and women working here do not have to cover their whole bodies like in Iran.

Qu Sai knew that this person was the most outstanding intelligence officer under Yourid. She also made a contribution to escorting Dr. Bull back last time. She wanted to praise her last time, but there was no suitable opportunity.

"Report to Your Excellency Qusay, everything here is normal." Hasar straightened up immediately when he saw Qusay, and said.

"Yeah." Qusay stepped forward, patted Hassar on the shoulder, and said, "Thank you, Hassar, I'm very relieved to have you here."

Smelling the masculine breath from Qusay's body, looking at Qusay's handsome young face, it was the first time Hasal got so close to His Excellency Qusay. She suddenly thought of the scene of the sexy men and women she saw when she was on a mission in Belgium last time, and her ears slammed.

Fortunately, Your Excellency Qusay just greeted him politely, and walked into the ward with Taha.

Taha glanced at Hasar. He, who was old and cunning, had already discovered the subordinate of His Excellency Qusay, and he might be tempted by His Excellency Qusay.

Qusay is really attractive, but now in Iraq, and even in the Middle East, which woman is not attracted to Qusay?There are too many halos on Qusay's head.

However, the appearance of this female subordinate is still good. Taha couldn't help but glanced again from the corner of his eyes, and found that the female's fingers were slightly bent. This detail of the movement is not noticed by ordinary people, but he found that, Somewhere in my mind, I seem to have a clear impression of this action.
