Merrill Lynch is a giant securities company in the United States, and Merrill Lynch Group is a world-leading wealth management, capital market and advisory firm with branches and representative offices in 30 countries and regions on six continents and 60,000 employees.

There are of course offices in London, and the current US Treasury Secretary, Donald Reagan, was at the top of the company.

He said that the Mountbatten Group is a friend of Wall Street, and naturally has weight. Alan Wilson expressed his gratitude for this commitment, but did not give in. "You know, war is a big thing. Even if I want to help, I can only The power of advice is still up to the Prime Minister in terms of national policy. Our Prime Minister resolutely defends the national interest.”

If Margaret Thatcher hadn't betrayed him, this time she came to Frankfurt to resolutely defend the national interests, and the two had agreed before she came.

The United States wants to make the United Kingdom be the villain, and then take the opportunity to draw blood from Latin America. Alan Wilson is not incomprehensible. It is not that the United States cannot join forces with Russia under certain conditions.

But it should not join forces with the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union has the national strength to replace the United States. Using a knife to kill is not using a knife to kill itself. I believe the United States can handle it clearly.

The reason for daring to test whether the United Kingdom wants to attack Argentina is obvious. Although the United Kingdom retains considerable strength, it is still far away from returning to its peak.

Although there is still a powerful navy, it ranks third in the current world. Yes, it is third. The total tonnage of the Soviet Red Navy has exceeded 3 million tons, making it the second largest navy in the world.

The United States judges that although the United Kingdom has considerable strength, it is not enough to replace itself, so it can cooperate.

As for a country that is really capable of replacing its own, although it is preparing for public opinion all the time, it still cannot really fight.

"The Americans have no idea and want to see how much strength the UK still has." Returning to the Prime Minister, Alan Wilson explained his dialogue with the US Treasury Secretary.

"The Americans have a good plan." Mrs Thatcher said angrily. Although she also advocated the special relationship between the United Kingdom and the United States, she could not accept that the United Kingdom suffered unilaterally. "Listen to you, Washington wants to see the strength of the United Kingdom, At the same time, we must use this war to raise interest rates and suppress inflation.”

"Oh, yes, the purpose of the UK is similar." Alan Wilson nodded, but still emphasized that the UK and the US are different, and what are the specific differences. There are no good agents.

Although the Kingdom of Iraq is a pro-British country, this time it was persuaded by the Americans. Alan Wilson could only make amends in other ways and strive for a better result.

If he has a choice, he hopes to have a good relationship with any country, but the relationship with Iran has become a foregone conclusion from the post-war Mossadegh anti-British. Provide support for this.

Normally, since it knows the purpose of its ill-intentioned ally, Britain should avoid falling into the trap, even if the United States has hinted that it will help the United Kingdom conceal its true purpose and promise false promises for Argentina.

But the problem is that Mrs. Thatcher's approval rate is also very low. Even the most difficult miners' union has not been settled. She can't raise the approval rate, and Mrs. Thatcher can't be **** the miners' union.

Alan Wilson pointed his fingers at the current imperial heritage, that is, the army seems to be a little weaker. This weak point refers to the fact that after Germany and France, the Federal Republic of Germany during the Cold War was a country where all men had to serve. Similar to Later, in South Korea, the number of the German Wehrmacht exceeded 500,000, there were 4,900 tanks, and more than 7,000 armored personnel carriers. If you look at the spring and autumn, who is not a steel torrent with more than 10,000 armored forces?

Not to mention the number of British Army compared with Germany, 1,800 tanks in NATO are still behind France, and it is on the same level as Italy, there is no way, Alan Wilson can't change military spending, can maintain the current framework already It's hard work and hard work, and of course the money is invested in the navy and air force.

However, in terms of armament renewal, the United Kingdom surpassed Germany, France and Italy, especially France and Italy. The French tank development took a detour, and there were a bunch of thin-skinned and large-stuffed tanks in China.

The Italian Army can be regarded as a smaller Wehrmacht, and the Panther tanks are also in service with the Italian Army.

The British Army's reloading efficiency is similar to that of the Federal Republic of Germany, a country specializing in ground warfare. It is naturally impossible to serve 5,000 tanks. However, the war-tested Tiger armed helicopters are equipped in the army aviation and belong to the British Army. Advantage.

To attack Argentina, the two British islands of St. Helena and Ascension must be used, otherwise the British strategic bombers will not be useful.

While Reagan and former President Jimmy Carter were showing that the United States would never give up a single American citizen, Alan Wilson was thinking about where the trigger for a fight with Argentina would be.

It is possible to borrow the military base in South Africa. The relationship between the United Kingdom and South Africa is still possible. If he hadn’t tried his best to stop it, Mrs Thatcher would have publicly stood on the side of the South African government and regarded the African countries of the Commonwealth as air, but during the war It shouldn't be a problem if South Africa helps.

The hostages released by Iran were flown back to Washington and given a hero's welcome after health checks and debriefing. The Iranian hostage crisis is over.

The end of the hostage crisis does not mean that the United States will forget Iran, which has embarrassed the United States. This is how the United States is. Everything starts from its position of strength. If it is strong, the United States will naturally find reasons to forgive you, such as the Korean War and the Vietnam War. Great country.

The United States wants to forgive Russia. At least the political forces that understand Wang's family really want to unite with Russia, but if they don't have the strength, the United States can target you forever.

Iran is naive to think that with the end of the hostage crisis, the issue has been resolved.

Shortly after the hostage crisis was resolved, the opening drama of 1982 began. King Faisal II of Iraq announced that he would recapture the territories seized by Iran for the United Arab Emirates. The Iraqi army crossed the border, and the world war between Iran and Iraq was finally delayed. It broke out more than a year later.

The Iraqi Air Force bears the brunt of the attack, attacking military targets in Iran and covering the ground forces to attack. Iran, which does not think Iraq really dares to do anything, has paid the price for its self-confidence.

Iran does not think that Iraq really dares to go to war, because Iran's military power is far greater than that of the Kingdom of Iraq. The area and population are the basis. Based on this, during the Pahlavi period, Pahlavi built the largest army in the Middle East. Formed a royal army of up to 700,000 people, including the Royal Air Force, the Royal Navy, the Royal Army, and the Pahlavi Commander-in-Chief of the three armies.

King Pahlavi claimed to build the fifth largest military force in the world, to be on an equal footing with the United States, the Soviet Union, Britain and France. Although the national defense has fallen, the framework is still there. I did not expect that Iraq would dare to do it.

Iranians don't know this. Although Iraq claimed to have a million troops during Saddam's time in history, it was actually accumulated after the Iran-Iraq War. When Saddam attacked Iran, Iraq The army is only more than 200,000 people, and it is not the fourth military power in the world at all.

Alan Wilson has helped Faisal II expand the army to 450,000, which is already twice the military strength of the same period in Iraqi history, so there is nothing to fear.

In fact, Iran, caught off guard, quickly paid the price for its overconfidence. The commanders loyal to the Shah have been purged. Now it seems that the combat effectiveness of the huge Iranian army has greatly declined. Faced with the hands-on Iraqi army, it is simply unstoppable.

A white light flickered in the distance, and in the piercing sound, the armor of the outer armored vehicle at a distance of more than 200 meters was immediately torn like a tissue paper, and the pierced body made a strange hissing sound, twisted and twisted. deformed.

After the kinetic energy armor-piercing projectile penetrated its frontal armor, it mercilessly penetrated its large body. After the projectile penetrated the car body, thousands of scorching fragments were generated and sprayed freely in the car. .uukanshu. com instantly burned the members of the car to pieces.

Immediately, the oil and gas mixture in the car was ignited, and a black-red flame slammed out from the gap between the top window and the car body. With the sound of an explosion, the car body burned violently like a lit torch.

The Chieftain-type main battle tank slowly emerged from a distance. It seemed to sneer contemptuously at the burning armored vehicle in the distance, then slowly turned the turret and led the convoy behind it to the front.

The excitement of the crew of the Chieftain tank is obvious. Although the British tank has some facilities that are not related to combat, and even is equipped with a set of tea sets, the combat effectiveness can still be trusted.

This marching armored unit raised a cloud of dust in the desert. The cyan smoke and yellow-gray dust merged into a huge sand screen, covering the sky and the moon, converging with the earth-shattering The rumbling sound was like a huge sandstorm.

So far, the Iraqi army can be described as taking the initiative and optimistically advancing, which has also brought optimism in the army, and has less fear of Iran's powerful military power on paper.

Before receiving the attack order, some soldiers had doubts about Iran. After all, many things are very intuitive. Iran has a large area and a large population, and its military strength is also there.

But it doesn't seem to be the case in the fight. Obviously, the purge of the royal army has seriously affected the combat effectiveness of the Iranian army. And this effect has been exposed in the war.
