In the other direction, the No.40 Seventh Mechanized Infantry Division and the No.80 Second Infantry Division were also engaged in the same battle, and they were advancing eastward.

At the same time, the air force of the Northern Military Region is also dispatched at high intensity to bomb the fortifications built by the Iranians.At this time, the C3I system in southern China, with the support of His Excellency Qusay, has gradually expanded to the northern military region, and some combat troops can already call for air support when needed.

If those major events had not happened in the world, Iraq's continued attack on Iran would arouse the intense attention of the world's major media. Where Iraq captured today and where it attacked tomorrow would attract the attention of the whole world. But now, Iraq's The war has been silent.

The focus of the world is mainly on the matter of the Soviet Union shooting down the South Korean airliner. The Soviet Union's tough attitude made all countries feel very dissatisfied and aroused strong opposition from all Western countries. They unanimously prepared to impose a round of sanctions on the Soviet Union on this matter. However, the Soviet Union Not afraid at all, even under the supervision of Batumi, the Soviet Union still got what it needed from Japan, and Western countries will never cut off their hands and feet, and adopt the method of not importing Soviet oil on sanctioned projects, and Western European countries also Those who want crude oil, and the Soviet Union can maintain the status quo as long as it exports crude oil, and the current economy of the Soviet Union is improving.

The whole world was discussing it at this time.

At the same time, the attitude of the United States became tougher. President Reagan once again gained prestige in the hearts of the people by virtue of his quick response and appropriate measures in this incident. The attention of all Americans was attracted here. Already forgotten.

In addition to this incident, although the fluctuation of Hong Kong's economy is not as attractive as the incident of the passenger plane being shot down, it has also attracted the attention of many people because it is related to their vital interests.

September 9rd, Hong Kong.

The previous operations were just exercises, but today is the official first time. They will stir the lifeblood of Hong Kong's economy!

"Immediately start selling Hong Kong dollars, selling our stocks, and buying forward U.S. dollars." Hikmat said, "Let's throw away [-]% first."

Following his words, the hands of the traders began to move, and the Hong Kong dollars one after another, and the stocks in a pen, were all thrown out.

Immediately, on various trading floors, the Hong Kong dollar exchange rate began to fall, and the Hong Kong dollar began to depreciate.

At the same time, this obvious change was immediately noticed by other speculators who followed. They observed the big fluctuations in the exchange rate today, and realized that the opportunity had finally arrived, and they also began to sell the Hong Kong dollars in their hands. Whoever holds Hong Kong dollar futures will depreciate even more.

With their joining, the exchange rate of the Hong Kong dollar began to fall at a faster rate.From 7.3 Hong Kong dollars to one U.S. dollar, it fell to 7.9 Hong Kong dollars to one U.S. dollar.

The Hong Kong government was shocked, knowing that this unusual change must be due to certain financial forces trying to take advantage of the fire, and they began to adopt emergency plans to use their own foreign exchange reserves to absorb the Hong Kong dollars thrown out by opportunism.

However, they do not have the extra ability to receive the stocks that have been thrown out. The Hong Kong government wants to use its own strength to fight against countless investment armies. They are doomed to fail, because the dollars in their hands do not have these investment armies More, even a Hikmat, the funds in his hand are much higher than theirs.

There is no smoke in this kind of battle, but it is more tense. Zhang Manyu looked at Hikmat, watching him directing these traders and operating Hong Kong's finance, feeling in a trance. Is this kind of thing a little bit It's so unreasonable, isn't it?

However, it has nothing to do with her, she is just a spectator.

The Hong Kong government moved quickly, and then the exchange rate began to rise gradually, approaching the ratio of 7.3 Hong Kong dollars to one U.S. dollar again.

"Throw away another 20.00%." ​​Hikmat continued.

With the 300 billion U.S. dollars in hand, Hikmat can operate up to 3000 billion U.S. dollars through mortgage loans and other methods. These funds are enough to destroy the economy of a small Southeast Asian country, just like the Soros company of later generations.

20.00%, that is nearly 600 billion U.S. dollars. This is a very powerful amount. The Hong Kong government is simply unable to fight.

In fact, just now, the Hong Kong government has almost exhausted all its foreign exchange reserves, so it had to urgently ask the British government for help.

But now, with the second round of attacks coming, the Hong Kong government couldn't stand it anymore, and the exchange rate of the Hong Kong dollar against the U.S. dollar began to fall to a greater extent, from 7.4 Hong Kong dollars to one U.S. dollar, to a dangerous ratio of 8.2 U.S. dollars to one U.S. dollar.

At the same time, the stock market began to be full of crises. The most important Hong Kong Hang Seng Index plummeted by more than 1000 points.

Two property companies, one commercial bank and one investment company, could no longer withstand the pressure and were forced to declare bankruptcy.

All of this is just the beginning. Hikmat is waiting for the rescue of the British government. His Excellency Qusay gave him an order not only to destroy the economy of Hong Kong, but also to severely damage the economy of the British government.

On this day, the two sides had their first confrontation, and the result was not optimistic. The Hong Kong government found that its own capabilities were already very limited. In order to maintain this important economic center, the British government launched a counterattack, injecting its own resources into Hong Kong from the UK. Funding, meanwhile, has begun talks with the United States to see if the United States can help them tide over this difficulty.

What the two sides are fighting for is that whoever has more foreign exchange in their hands will have the upper hand in this battle.

On September 9th, the Hong Kong government received another 4 billion US dollars. With this huge amount of funds, they began to have confidence in themselves.

Doing so is also a big test for the British government, because the British economy is not very good. If this fund is in vain, then the British economy will be hit hard again. The United Kingdom, which has not recovered from the Falklands War, is even worse.

However, in order to maintain the image of the British Empire in the world, the British zhèngfǔ has no other choice. What's more, the negotiations with the Chinese zhèngfǔ are now at a critical level. If the UK is unable to defend Hong Kong's economic order, then the British are negotiating There will be a lot less confidence in the middle.They have to.

Mrs. Thatcher did not know that this time, not only did the British government fail to complete the difficult task, on the contrary, while the Hong Kong economy was destroyed, the British economy was also hit hard. Correspondingly, many expenditures of the British government were destroyed. The first thing to bear the brunt of the forced contraction is the pre-alarm hunting project, which has been close to success. There is no money to invest in research and development. Together with the funds and technology, they were sold to the Middle East countries at a price that the British government was satisfied with.

Yesterday's success made the entire team led by Hikmat extremely excited. They were waiting for the moment when Hong Kong's economy would shake and completely collapse under their operation.

"Throw ten percent." Hikmat then gave the order.

Yesterday's battle attracted more international speculators, who have already regarded this place as a place for them to make a fortune. Therefore, Hikmat is confident that it can cause a greater exchange rate drop than yesterday.

Sure enough, starting with their actions, both the exchange rate and the stock market began to fall, and Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index fell at a rapid rate.

But then, the Hong Kong government also started to fight back, especially for Hong Kong dollar futures and major bank stocks. The Hong Kong government can accept as much as they sell. The Hong Kong government has the funds from the British government, so it can do so for the time being.

But then, the zhèngfǔ felt bad, because they kept absorbing, and the funds were also rapidly decreasing. However, this momentum did not improve, but continued to fall.

Their huge funds have already been used up to 500 billion U.S. dollars, but there are still countless stocks and Hong Kong dollar futures being thrown out. This seems to be a bottomless pit!

Hong Kong zhèngfǔ is in a hurry, and the British zhèngfǔ is also in a hurry. They urgently asked the United States for help, hoping to raise 2000 billion US dollars from the United States to rescue the market. Otherwise, Hong Kong's economy may collapse today.

Chapter 5 Nineteen Iranian female warriors?

The British government does not know how powerful the international speculators are, otherwise, they would simply let go of the British market and let the economy develop freely.

Now, Britain has not only used up its foreign exchange savings, but also borrowed a buttock of debts from the United States. These debts have burdened Britain with a heavy burden for the next ten years, and it has never recovered.

Both the United States and the United Kingdom are old-fashioned capitalist countries, and the relationship between the two parties has always been very good. Moreover, the personal relationship between President Reagan and Mrs. Thatcher is also very good. Therefore, after receiving the request from the United Kingdom, the United States It agreed to the request of the United Kingdom and lent 2000 billion U.S. dollars to the United Kingdom from several major banks, which is considered a large sum for the United States.

As for the UK, this is a considerable sum. The UK must not lose. Now is the critical time to negotiate with China. How about continuing to rule Hong Kong?Britain is riding a tiger.

They thought they could survive this difficulty, but unfortunately, they couldn't.

Because, His Excellency Qusay in the Middle East wants to seize this opportunity to make a fortune, and after the British economy has suffered a heavy blow, he can also make some benefits in the UK.

On September 9th, Hikmat only invested 4%, and the entire Hong Kong economy has become very dangerous. The British government urgently mobilized 500 billion dollars and 2000 billion dollars from the United States. Funds, they suppressed the situation for the time being, but all the international speculators who smelled the smell of the dollar are also making moves, and they are secretly accumulating greater strength.

On September 9th, this day was relatively calm, but it was just a moment of silence before the storm.

Hikmat let everyone rest for a day, and the time for the final attack is tomorrow!

At this time, in the stock and futures markets, a large number of short positions have been accumulated, and these are the sources of Hikmat's profits!

October 9th.

"Get rid of all our Hong Kong dollars and add dollars," Hikmat said.

Following Hikmat's words, the tsunami in Hong Kong's financial sector has finally arrived. The "true culprit" who caused the Hong Kong dollar crisis in Hong Kong is now in Baghdad, directing the front-line battle.

As a senior commander, it is not appropriate to intervene too much in the command of the grassroots. The frontline commander has the most right to speak when he is on the scene. Qusay does not want to do this. However, the progress of the frontline is not going smoothly. .

Because, in the battle in the mountains, the Iranians seem to have suddenly become smarter. They no longer set up ambushes on favorable terrain, such as the top of the mountain. They drilled into the mountain and began to take cold shots as their main task. , Fire a few shots, and then run into the mountains and forests. For this method of combat, the soldiers on the front line have not yet adapted to it for a while, and the soldiers sent out to track them will often disappear.

This made Qusay start to worry, the Iranians have finally learned guerrilla warfare?If so, along the offensive line, how many fighters would fall under this cold gun?

There is no good way to deal with this kind of behavior. Qusay sent out all the special forces to encircle and suppress these armed personnel. Only by eliminating all these personnel can there be a stable rear.

On the front line, the [-]st Company of the Assault Brigade of the [-]st Armored Division.
