As a result, it is a sample... you have to devote your efforts.

The day after receiving the Iraqi general, Pei Chengyi received information sent by Liu Xiaobin and received a call from Liu Xiaobin, who attached great importance to Iraqi generals when he formed the joint headquarters. Although Liu Xiaobin did not say it clearly, he understood the meaning very clearly, that is to give the Iraqi general a higher place.

It is precisely because Pei Chengyi postponed the first formal meeting that decided the power of generals from various countries for two days.

During these two days, Pei Chengyi spent a lot of time understanding the situation in Iraq.

To be honest, before that, Pei Chengyi's understanding of Iraq mainly came from some of the situations he learned from the war reports he saw on TV and the information related to the Iranian war when he went to the General Staff.

For Pei Chengyi, Iraq is a very distant and mysterious excess. This is just like a century ago when Westerners believed that the Republic is a pound, very distant and mysterious excess. Since Liu Xiaobin called and sent someone to send information, he should have a good idea of ​​Iraq.

Of course, what Pei Chengyi needs to know is only things related to national defense and military.

After the "independence in the year of Shennian, Iraq established a defense system similar to Iran, that is, a revolutionary guard team was set up outside the National Defense Forces. Unlike Iran, Iraq has no supreme spiritual leader. That is to say, the Iraqi Islamic Revolutionary Guard team will obey the command of the Iranian supreme spiritual leader.

To eliminate doubts, this is a very absurd and completely unfounded national defense system. It is precisely because Western countries led by the United States have not yet been willing to recognize the Iraqi regime. They believe that Iraq is just a highly autonomous province under Iran.

After years, Iraq's defense system has undergone a fundamental change.

As Ahmadinejad became the Iranian general and began to reduce the aid provided to Iraq year by year, the Iraqi authorities had to ask the Republic for help. When the Republic agreed to aid Iraq, the only request made by the Republic was that Iraq had to adjust its basic political system and become a secular Islamic state. The reason for the Republic to make this request is very simple. Only the separation of church and state can ensure the security of foreign investment, and the Republic's authorities can provide loan guarantees for the Iraqi government. Only the Republic's entrepreneurs will consider Iraq's investment.

In fact, the Iraqi authorities also hope that the Republic would make such a request. Because only in this way can Iraq abolish the rules set by Iranian religious leaders and get rid of Iran's control. In any case, even if more than half of Iraq's citizens are Shiites, they are mainly Arabs, not Persians. In this case, the Iraqi people are absolutely unwilling to obey Iran's command.

That is why after the Republic made this request, the Iraqi authorities stabbed and followed the flow. When adjusting the political structure, they abolished the Revolutionary Guards. In a sense, Iraq was able to complete this political and military change without bleeding, which is closely related to the Republic's relations. In other words, if the Republic's authorities had not come forward, Iran would have definitely used extreme means to deal with disobedient Iraq.

In order to stabilize Iran and let Iran's highest spiritual leader know who is the boss, when the Iraqi authorities announced the abolition of the Revolutionary Guards and confiscated the weapons and equipment of the Revolutionary Guards, the Republic sent four aircraft carrier battle groups to the Gulf and the Arabian Sea, allowing the first combat unit stationed in Lahore, Pakistan to move towards Balochistan, and the second combat unit stationed in Visakhapatnam, India to board the ship. It put on a military intervention stance.

Fortunately, at that time, the Supreme Spiritual Leader of Iran was concentrating on dealing with the new president. Not only did he not dare to offend the Republic, but he also had no power to interfere in Iraq.

The problem is that excessively extreme reform actions will only have counterproductive effects. Compared with other reforms, military system reform is more sensitive. Affected by this, Iraq's military system reform is not thorough. In order to maintain domestic unity and stabilize the domestic situation, the Iraqi authorities did not completely abolish the Revolutionary Guard Corps, but only confiscated the heavy weapons of the Revolutionary Guard Corps. And no longer let the Revolutionary Guard recruit soldiers. In fact, it means that the Iraqi authorities intend to use time to solve the problem.

In any case, this reform fundamentally laid the foundation for Iraq's national defense.

It is also true that the Republic has carried out drastic reforms to Iraq's national defense forces since the end of the year.

Of course, the prerequisite for reform is that the Republic has provided Iraq with a large number of weapons and equipment.

According to the data provided by the Military Intelligence Bureau, by the beginning of the year of Lishan, the Republic's free assistance to Iraq, ground weapons can arm two armored brigades, a total of 2 old main battle tanks, and aid in small-scale infantry fighting vehicles, such as multiple armored conveyor vehicles, Jinduo self-propelled artillery, 4 jin. The main battle tanks of the mechanic infantry brigades, yo infantry fighting vehicles, and multiple armored conveyor vehicles, such as multiple self-propelled artillery, 4 infantry brigades, and 4 infantry brigades of the main battle tanks, and 9 jin.

The war vehicles, many armored conveyor vehicles, many self-propelled artillery, a total of electromagnetic gun systems for each artillery brigade, 2 long-range artillery brigades have 0 long-range rocket launchers and tactical ballistic missile systems, 8 catties, air defense brigades have ugli air defense systems and gills have field air defense systems and bamboo special brigades are mainly various reconnaissance equipment, air force equipment includes fighter aircraft, which has a small knife frame! It is larger than the "power frame small thug" early warning aircraft.

The improvement of the carrier-based early warning aircraft, the carriage transport aircraft can also be converted into a tanker if necessary, because Iraq's coastline is only a thousand meters, and the sea outlet is surrounded by Kuwait and Iran. Therefore, the Republic has only assisted several Iraqi police boats used to perform maritime patrol missions.

Although the aid to Iraq is all weapons and equipment that have been lagging behind and have even been eliminated by the Republican army, some of which are sealed off old-time equipment from the past year or above, for Iraq, this is still a considerable wealth. Because Iraq's national defense power has been "operating empty spaces. After several years, it lacks high-quality military talents. The main task in the early stage of modern national defense construction is to cultivate and reserve talents. Therefore, Iraq does not need too many advanced weapons and equipment. First, use old weapons and equipment to transition, and can also cultivate military talents;

Of course, it is impossible to provide free assistance to some more advanced weapons.

At the end of the year, Iraq signed a total value of about 300 million troops with the Republic. All of these equipment have been delivered to Iraq before the end of the year, and the fighter jets will be used to form a kilogram. Independent air defense fighter brigades, vertical take-off and landing transport aircraft and low-altitude attack aircraft will be used to form Iraq's army aviation, and ground equipment will be used to form an elite armored brigade.

This transaction is very serious. If calculated based on the sales prices of various weapons announced by the Republic, it will take at least 100 million yuan to complete it. More importantly, Iraq did not pay for this arms transaction. According to the Military Intelligence Bureau, in order to promote this arms transaction, the three financial groups in the Republic provided financing guarantees for the Iraqi authorities such as 100 million yuan. Among them, at least Jinyiyun will exchange two second-hand arms trading companies managed by the Military Intelligence Bureau for selling weapons and equipment eliminated by the Iraqi army. In addition, Quyuan will be paid by several resource companies including Sanjian Group and Ye Hong Group to purchase Iraq's resource mining rights.

While introducing a large number of weapons and equipment made by the Republic, Iraq eliminated a large amount of old equipment.

According to the information provided by the Military Intelligence Agency, the Iraqi authorities gradually replaced all weapons and equipment provided by Iran by "replacement one by one" method.

It is necessary to do this. First of all, the weapons and equipment provided by the Iranian authorities are basically old equipment obtained from Russia during the Iran War. They are not suitable for the military organization tailor-made for Iraq by the Republic's military advisers, and they have long been behind.

Secondly, Iraq has no need to maintain an overly large military force, so it does not need to maintain too many weapons and equipment. Finally, the Iraqi authorities do not intend to continue to obey the orders of Iran's supreme spiritual leader, so they have to make a difference in national defense construction.

The Military Intelligence Agency also benefited a lot from it. Not to mention, all the old equipment eliminated by Iraq was sold to Africa and Central and South America through two second-hand arms trading companies secretly controlled by the Military Intelligence Agency. Although the Iraqi authorities received about 400 million yuan in revenue, the Military Intelligence Agency also obtained about 100 million yuan in revenue according to a half-to-half distribution ratio.

In any case, the Republic is helping Iraq build a powerful national defense force.

In the east, the total strength of the Iraqi National Army is less than 10,000, the army is 10,000, and the air force is 30,000. The naval reform includes a land combat brigade with a scale of about 40 four people. In the army, the main force is the thug. There are elite armored brigades, 2 armored brigades, 4 mechanical and infantry brigades, 4 jin, infantry brigades, 4 jin. Artillery brigades, 2 long-range artillery brigades, 8 air defense brigades and 2 special brigades, with a total strength of about 10,000. There are 20,000 civilian soldiers. The Air Force has an air defense combat under the Air Force.

The aircraft wing, 6 kilograms. Multipurpose Fighter Wing "The attack aircraft wing is planned to form an army aviation force, but it is temporarily organized into the combat sequence of the air force and has three support wings, equipped with various aircraft including slack fighter jets. In terms of scale, it is already the third largest air force in the Gulf region after Iran and Saudi Air Force, and the seventh largest air force in the Middle East. In terms of naval forces, because of its narrow sea outlet, the scale is very small and not worth mentioning.

In a sense, the Iraqi Defense Forces are the "reduced version of the Republic's army"

Because when helping Syria reorganize defense and military forces, the Military Intelligence Bureau, which is specifically responsible for foreign military cooperation projects, has mastered the actual situation of the Arab countries. It has a deeper understanding of Arab culture and has accumulated a lot of very useful experience. Therefore, when assisting Iraq in rectifying its defense and military forces, the military advisers sent by the Military Intelligence Bureau are familiar with the way. Instead of taking a few more steps, they have established a modern national defense and military system for Iraq in one step.

In addition to equipment and organization, the most important thing is the command system.

In fact, the command system is the basic factor that determines the military system.

In the past few years, the Iraqi authorities have only spent money to buy one thing, that is, the strategic command system that the Republic has never sold to the outside world. To be precise, it should be "multi-functional tactical command and intelligence: Second, we know that the people are the General Staff and the Military Department of the Ministry of War, and the command systems of the major theater commands were also improved on this basis. Although the original code of the software was not provided when it was sold to Iraq, and the actual situation in Iraq was streamlined. However, in order to avoid leaks, the Republic still signed a security agreement with the Iraqi authorities. Before Iraq's military reform was completed, the security system thugs of the system were responsible by the specialized personnel sent by the Republic.

In order to cooperate with the advanced command system, the most important thing the Republic does is to curb military personnel for Iraq.

Since the end of the Tian year, thousands of Iraqi officers have gone to the Republic to study every year. Half of them receives a year of quick training for thugs, while the rest receives 2 to 3 years of advanced training.

By the past year, the Republic had already scraped a knife for Iraq's army officers, helped the air force officers to persuade them to return to China at the end of the year, and were probably the senior staff officers.

After returning to China, these Iraqi soldiers became the backbone of the army without exception. Because the size of the Iraqi army was quite limited, the grassroots army officers were around Danci. Air Force pilots were not interested, so nearly half of the officers who had received training in the Republic were trained.

In other words, when these Iraqi soldiers who have received training in the Republic become generals and senior officers, the nature of the Iraqi army will no longer be changed, and the relationship between Iraq and the Republic is even less likely to change much.

In fact, the Republic of Ken invested billions of training in Iraqi soldiers, which clearly showed that he wanted to control Iraq's military power.

More importantly, these soldiers also brought the most advanced military ideas back to Iraq.

According to the information provided by the Military Intelligence Bureau, because the gilded officers to the Republic were reused after returning to China, many of them held important positions. Therefore, the Iraqi army's thoughts were ahead of all neighboring countries and were the most suitable army for modern warfare. Because most senior Iraqi officers, especially senior officers in the power, participated in the "War of Independence", the Iraqi army did not lack war experience.

If you have to say that the Iraqi army has any flaws, it is that it cannot purchase enough advanced equipment due to the national strength.

Of course, the Military Intelligence Bureau does this and most likely wants Pei Chengyi to pay attention to the Iraqi army.

Pei Chengyi does attach importance to Iraq. But what he pays attention to is not the Iraqi army, but the geography of Iraq.

In fact, what the Military Intelligence Bureau hopes that Pei Chengyi will pay attention to is Iraq's strategic position.

Among the information provided to Pei Chengyi, one details Iraq's military bases and transportation facilities, and the other mentions that the Republic's authorities are negotiating with Iraq, hoping to reach an agreement on lease or joint use of military bases to bypass Iran and Syria by deploying combat forces to Iraq. Of course, the Republic's authorities will not admit to putting Iran and Syria aside, but when some specific issues are involved, the Republic does not want to encounter trouble in the war. For example, there are many restrictions on the Republic's sending troops to war, especially when operations in Iran will definitely be restricted by the Iranian authorities and it is unlikely to be rigged.

As a commander, Pei Chengyi must not ignore this issue.

In fact, Pei Chengyi encountered similar problems as early as the early days of the Indian War. At that time, the maritime supply line had not been opened and new supply lines were needed. The authorities in Nepal and Bangladesh had some concerns, which forced Pei Chengyi to make adjustments in military deployment. In any case, Pei Chengyi did not want to encounter the same situation again, so he had to be more fully prepared before the war began.

Relatively speaking, opening up a third front in Iraq is the most ideal choice.

Not to mention, the Iraqi authorities did not require a general with outstanding capabilities to serve as the front line commander, and did not even put forward such an idea. They just hope that the Republic will fully consider Iraq's national interests and provide certain guarantees when formulating the war strategy. To this end, Iraq is willing to participate in the war, but also willing to provide all convenient conditions for the Republic's army. In other words, Iraq will soon sign a secret agreement with the Republic to provide military bases and corresponding transportation infrastructure.

Mu Yong doubted that Iraq was Pei Chengyi's place of military use.

Although it did not deny the importance of the Iranian battlefield and the Syrian battlefield. However, as the most talented general of the Republic, Pei Chengyi knew from the very beginning that neither Iran nor Syria was an ideal battlefield. This is exactly the case. After Li Cunxun proposed to set up two front-line commands to be responsible for the combat operations in the direction of Iran and Syria, Pei Chengyi immediately agreed and did not argue with Li Cunxun. In fact, Li Cunxun did not mention Iraq, but hoped that Pei Chengyi would be responsible for the combat operations in the direction of Iraq.

It can be seen from this that two years ago, the Republic sold the world's most advanced command system thugs to Iraq, not to make that little money. To put it bluntly, if the Republic really planned to sell the command system, there might be several countries willing to buy it for hundreds of billions of dollars.

It is precisely this. Pei Chengyi delayed the first joint meeting by 2 days.

After learning about the situation in Iraq in detail, Pei Chengyi made a special trip to the base hotel on the night of the year to visit Badalin and Ransom to enhance his relationship with the two Iraqi generals.
