Dominate South Asia

Chapter 446: Picking Fruit

"Please inform your president that British Ambassador Edward hopes to meet with your president." Edward said to the sentry at the door of the presidential palace.

In the past, it was just a matter of greeting, but today, Edward felt that the atmosphere was a little unusual.

"I'm sorry, our president is preparing to visit the Soviet Union and has no time to see you for the time being." The sentry said.

Visiting the Soviet Union? Edward was stunned: "Please tell your president that I am here this time for the most important military trade between us."

"I'm sorry, visiting the Soviet Union is the most important thing for the president now, and other things are secondary." The sentry replied: "Mr. Ambassador, please go back."

At least a minister-level person should come out to greet him, right? A sentry sent him away, the car turned around and left the presidential palace, and Edward was in a very bad mood.

The country still has confidence in the 82-class destroyer and hopes to sell it at a good price. Now, the psychological price in the country is at least 20 million US dollars. With training and technology sales, it will be at least 30 million US dollars. Edward came this time to hope that Pakistan would raise the price a little bit so that he could discuss with the country. At least it should be raised to 18 or 19 million before he could explain it to the country.

Who knew that he didn't meet the Pakistani president at all this time. Visiting the Soviet Union? What to talk about? Talking about the Afghan war? It must be like this!

The Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan, and the final negotiations were held with Pakistan. This is too ironic. However, everyone knows that the current Afghan Free Government is almost a follower of the Pakistani government. Those people in the government were all pulled up by Muhammad.

"Nurhan, during my visit, the domestic situation will be left to you to deal with." Muhammad said.

On this visit, Muhammad will bring Defense Minister Mushaaf, Air Force Chief of Staff Old Arslan, Navy Chief of Staff Zahar and others, while the Deputy Chief of Army Staff Nur-Khan will temporarily act as the head of state affairs.

"Yes." Nur-Khan said: "Our country is very stable now, and there will not be too much fluctuation. We can continue to export heavy weapons to Afghanistan. After the Soviets withdraw, the Afghan Free Government should challenge the puppet government."

"Well, arm the Afghan Free Army with heavy weapons, but we cannot give up the efforts for peace." Muhammad said: "If the puppet government knows what's going on, they should know that it may be most appropriate for the two sides to hold peace talks and establish a coalition government."

In later generations. After the Soviet Union withdrew from Afghanistan, the guerrillas went out together and quickly overthrew the government supported by the Soviet Union. Unfortunately, the battle against the Soviet invasion ended, but the civil war officially began. The armed forces that grew and developed in the guerrilla war all hoped to lead Afghanistan. There are three main forces. Due to tribal conflicts, they have been fighting continuously. The Afghan people suffered greatly, and as a result, the Taliban, which claimed to end the civil war, emerged and took control of the entire Afghan regime. The Afghan people thought they could end their suffering, but who would have thought that this government was trying to rule the country with fundamentalism. It made the country regress hundreds of years. Just like Yuan Shikai's restoration in later generations, people were still shouting "Long live the emperor". After the Taliban came to power, women were wrapped in coats again. Replacing the law with doctrine.

Now, due to Muhammad's time travel. Due to Muhammad's reforms in Afghanistan, earth-shaking changes have taken place between now and later generations. The integration of various ethnic groups is constantly going on. With the reform of industrialization, Afghanistan has become rich, and the tribal youths hiding in the ravines have come out to make money. Life has become better, and no one will fight for old things.

At the same time, almost all other large and small forces in Afghanistan were pacified by the Afghan Free Army. Even the guerrillas in the south were wiped out by the Soviets with the help of Osama. The puppet government was completely supported by the Soviets. Once the Soviets left, the puppet government had no ability to fight against the Free Army.

Coalition government? Just let them step down decently! In the positions of the coalition government, the departments of education and health were left to the people of the original government. The departments of industry, economy, finance, and military were of course controlled by the free government.

There is no other force in Afghanistan now that can compete with the Afghan Free Government. Moreover, the lives of the people in the north have long been prosperous. The Afghans in the south have long been envious and can't wait to get rich like the north.

What kind of people are the most terrible? People who are poor and white have nothing anyway. They are most easily instigated and can take up arms to make revolution. But once they have it, they will lose their sharpness and think about how to live a better life.

The war-torn Afghanistan of the future will never appear again on the Afghan land. At the same time, the strategic location here is very important and a place that must be fought for by military strategists. Now, it has become an ally of Pakistan.

Muhammad went to Moscow to negotiate the issue of the Soviet Union's withdrawal from Afghanistan. On this critical issue, the Soviet Union did not negotiate with the United States, but chose Pakistan.

Only the parties involved know the mystery.

The day before Muhammad left for Moscow, the US Ambassador Arnold came to meet Muhammad.

Mhammad could not ignore the request of the American ambassador, so in the presidential palace, Muhammad met his old friend again.

"My American friend is very welcome." Muhammad said.

"President Muhammad, we are very happy to learn that the Soviet Union invited you to Moscow. This means that our war in Afghanistan has finally won." Arnold said to Muhammad.

Although the outside world only knows that Muhammad went to Moscow, it can be guessed with toes that it must be for Afghanistan. With the current actions of the Soviet Union, it must be withdrawing troops.

"Yes, with the support of the Western world, we fought hard and finally got the Soviets back to the negotiating table. We are also very happy that Afghanistan will finally regain its freedom." Muhammad said.

When he just crossed over, Muhammad entered the Afghan battlefield and followed the Afghan guerrillas to fight against the Soviets. The battle at that time was quite difficult. Muhammad went through life and death many times before gradually turning the situation around on the Afghan battlefield and turning Afghanistan into a huge quagmire.

In the meantime, there was also help from the Western world. In order to fight against the Soviet Union, the West provided a lot of funds and weapons and ammunition. Otherwise, the Afghan guerrillas would have almost no chance of winning with only those homemade weapons.

"We can foresee that after the Soviet Union withdraws, the Afghan Free Government will become the new Afghan government." Arnold said, "We will eventually see a prosperous and strong Afghanistan."

Listening to Arnold's words, Muhammad gradually became alert. This guy came here not just to celebrate the victory in the battle against the Soviet Union, right?

Sure enough, Arnold continued, "However, Afghanistan's geographical location is too critical. If Afghanistan wants to continue to develop its economy, it needs a strong army."

"What do you mean?" Muhammad asked Arnold.

"Afghanistan's victory was hard-won. We hope to maintain Afghanistan's political stability. For the stability of Afghanistan, we hope to station some troops in Afghanistan." Arnold said.

The person who stole the fruit revealed his true colors so quickly! Muhammad couldn't help but get angry in his heart. Support? What is Western support? At best, it's just some weapons and some funds. What about Pakistan? But it paid the price of blood and life. In order to prevent the Soviet Union from continuing to invade Pakistan after occupying Afghanistan, Pakistan had to send countless soldiers to fight in Afghanistan. Muhammad was one of them. There were also thousands of Pakistani soldiers who died! Later, in order to counter the Soviet Union, Pakistan confronted the Soviet Union several times, almost risking a nuclear war with the Soviet Union, and the United States only needed to cheer from behind.

Now, the Afghan war is about to win. At this time, the Americans actually want to station troops in Afghanistan?

This is to snatch Afghanistan from Pakistan! Whose idea is this? Reagan? Reagan's term will end in two years. He should not come up with this bad idea. It should be Reagan's successor, Vice President Bush, who has a more unique vision.

What to do? Refuse now? Things haven't reached that point yet. After all, the withdrawal of the Soviets cannot be completed in one or two days. In later generations, the Soviets took almost one or two years to withdraw all their troops. At that time, it had been delayed to eight or nine years, right?

By then, the international situation had changed a lot. If the Americans wanted to station troops, they had to look at the international situation first. They could hold a few demonstrations against the Americans in Afghanistan to make them retreat. After all, the Afghans were eager for freedom and did not want any other troops to enter Afghanistan.

Besides, would the Soviets watch the United States station troops under their noses?

Thinking of this, Muhammad said: "Let the Afghan people and the Afghan Free Government handle the affairs of Afghanistan. I believe they will make their own choices."

This answer was ambiguous. Arnold certainly would not be fooled by Muhammad. Just as he was about to continue, he heard Muhammad continue: "In the Afghan war, the Western world strongly supported it, and the Afghan people will not forget it. I believe that the Afghan Free Government is very welcome to their friends."

This sentence was a promise. Arnold knew that the main purpose of his trip had been achieved. (To be continued ~^~)
