When northern Syria began to enter a full-scale war due to Turkey's intervention, Tal Tamir, located in a corner, became a haven of peace.

I have to say that the geographical location here was quite advantageous during wartime.

There are no large cities in Turkey, no important resources, and the distance from strategic towns is just right.

At the same time, the population here is not low, and all kinds of living supplies are basically self-sufficient. There are even rivers running through it, so there is no need to worry about water sources.

It is probably precisely because of the collection of these elements that it became an important source of troops for the Tiger Corps in its previous life and became Suhail's base camp to fight against extremist armed forces in northeastern Syria.

——

Of course, it's the same in this life as well.

The rout of Raqqa definitely not only affected the Dongfeng Corps, Suhail's losses were even greater than Chen Chen's.

The nearly 1,000-strong Tiger Corps and the 500-strong militia were almost wiped out in one battle, leaving only less than 200 people. After the battle, they covered Suhail and retreated to Tabqa.

In other words, he fled back to Tabuka in embarrassment.

Abandoning their armor is no longer enough to describe their miserable situation. When Chen Chen re-established a stable relationship with Suhail and had the opportunity to talk about things other than the battle plan, he realized that Suhail was retreating. The pressure I endured in the final stage was no less than my own.

They tried their best to take away as many vehicles as possible, but these vehicles were not used to hold supplies and equipment, but to hold the bodies of their comrades.

More than 200 corpses were pulled back to Tabqa in an extreme, cruel, and even certain way that would be criticized by the Western world as "inhumane".

On the way, the convoy crossed the Euphrates River. During the waterway transfer, they suffered low-altitude attacks from Turkish helicopters and harassment by ground troops.

Two ships were destroyed, and the 100 stinking corpses sank to the bottom of the river together with the 40 fresh and warm corpses, becoming new waste materials that nourished the alluvial plain.

After finally crossing the river and reaching Aleppo and receiving support from the armored brigade, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But then, NATO fighter air strikes also followed.

All the fighter jets at Tabuka Air Base took off in an almost "suicidal" strategy. In the end, after losing more than half of the combat aircraft, they finally returned to the base under cover.

At that time, Suhail only had 100 people and 150 corpses left in his hands.

"Is it worth it?"

This was the first question Chen Chen asked after listening to Suhail's narration, and Suhail's answer was somewhat intriguing.

"I am not an idealist, let alone a benevolent and philanthropic general."

"It should be said that this is a play."

"But it just so happens that my kindness coincides with the needs of this scene."

"So, it's not worth it."

"After these bodies are brought back, our recruitment work will become smoother."

"In addition - we have recovered the remains of most of your comrades."

"I think, for whatever reason, they need to go back, right?"

".right."

Chen Chen let out a long sigh. It was only at this moment that he was truly impressed by Suhail's talent that was "not limited to the battlefield."

He is quite capable of fighting, especially on this land.

However, in addition to being able to fight, his grasp of the situation, politics, and some unexplained rules is what really allows him to go further and further.

He possesses sorcery, but he can still be a human being.

He has never been against doing things that break the rules or even the bottom line. Even deceiving the 500 people in the border camp to die near Raqqa was his plan.

But in the final analysis, the reason why he did this was because of one word.

win.

In other words, it is to "live".

Only by winning can you survive.

Thinking of this, Chen Chen coughed slightly, and then continued to ask:

"When will the bodies of our comrades be handed over?"

"I have already reached an agreement with Ms. Xia Xing, but the specific transfer plan is still a bit difficult."

"The weather is too hot, and many bodies have been stuck together. Plus... in short, I will find a way."

"Understood. What do you need from me?"

After Chen Chen said this, it meant that he was going to get to the point.

Suhail immediately understood what he meant, so he said without hesitation or evasion:

"I need you to continue to finish what I haven't finished."

"Basically all the ISIS forces in Hasakah have been transferred to the vicinity of Raqqa, which can be said to be an empty city."

"I need you to recruit militiamen in my name, complete their basic training, and then capture and hold Hasakah."

"Tel Tamir is a good place. It can provide at least two thousand more soldiers."

"I will solve the equipment problem for you - but it will take some time."

"Okay, I'll leave it to Chaisili to do it."

"No problem - do you have other plans?"

Suhail's voice was slightly confused.

"Don't you need to rest? Your people also need to rest, right?"

"It's enough to rest for a day or two. Our next actions don't require so many people to participate."

"However, I need your cooperation."

"How to cooperate?"

"A batch of missiles will be shipped to Syria in the near future, and your senior officials should already know about it."

"But, they're very slow."

"What I need you to do is to get these missiles to Syria in the shortest possible time and complete their deployment immediately, no matter what the cost."

"missile?!"

Suhail was taken aback and asked subconsciously:

"DF?"

"no."

“Iran’s Conqueror Missile.”

".You have indeed done a lot of things secretly. What do you need me to do?"

"You think about it yourself, I don't care about the process, I just want the result."

"I don't care whether you use your family's power to put pressure on corrupt officials in the bloated and slow civil service system, or you ask old generals to assist you, or you directly put a gun over the heads of decision-makers, or you directly put a gun on the people who hinder the action. Kill them all."

"Everything is feasible - the Syrian jar has been completely shattered, and there is no need to worry about it breaking even more."

"Only by getting missiles can the situation change."

"Only when the range of missiles covers the entire territory of Syria, can you have the possibility of seeking peace!"

"clear."

Suhail nodded solemnly, and after a moment of silence, he asked:

"Do those missiles have the range to cover the Red Sea?"

"Unfortunately, no."

"What if - I mean, what if, these missiles could be launched from Sudan?"

After Suhail finished speaking, Chen Chen's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

"Do you have a way to get the missiles to Sudan?"

"I don't."

Suhail answered calmly and then continued:

"But I know the Russians must have it."

"And they will definitely be able to convince the Sudan to join."

"Even if it doesn't work, we can at least give it a try?"

To muddy the waters, this is probably what Suhail really wants to do.

Of course, being able to muddy the water is definitely an extremely rare skill.

And obviously, Suhail really has this ability.

Why does he say the Russians will definitely be able to convince Sudan to join?

The reason is simple. Just over a month ago, when the war in Syria was in full swing, North and South Sudan, which had been at odds for twenty years, finally split after a war.

Since then, Sudan has become two countries: South Sudan and North Sudan. The leaving South Sudan not only took away a large area of ​​territory, but also took away up to 70% of its oil fields.

Such divisions have sharply worsened Sudan's economic situation. To make matters worse, this rebellion not only brought "actual" losses, but also brought more severe sanctions from the United States.

Terrorist list, entity list, embargo list, IFRS

A series of sanctions from different departments have almost suffocated the country. If it cannot get rid of the negative impact of sanctions, North Sudan will have no future.

Perhaps, they can oust the current leader and sacrifice one Bashir in exchange for the future of the entire country.

However, anyone with a little bit of brains can see that this kind of exchange is essentially "fighting the fire with salary."

Americans will not be satisfied with a regime change. They will not even be satisfied with resources that are actually at their fingertips.

What they really want is a complete shakeup of the country.

In a more extreme case, what they want may even be "no North Sudan."

In the previous life, the development of the situation in Sudan did follow this path.

In 2019, Bashir stepped down and Hamdok came to power.

This pro-American faction has been trying to restore the situation at home, but in vain.

He even visited the United States, but failed to change the final result. Instead, after the failure, he had a fierce fight with Burhan, who secretly supported Bashir.

In this political situation, what if Russia could give them a new choice?

You know, Russia has been seeking to establish a military port in Sudan since 2009.

Bashir needs Russia's support to neutralize the impact of the great unrest in West Africa.

After all, he doesn't want to become the next "strongman" pushed to death by the United States.

And Suhail can give him a chance to get a certificate of investment.

After all the logic was sorted out, Chen Chen suddenly became excited.

——

Of course it's not because he can really "muddy the waters", but because he has a chance to take revenge.

damn it.

When we were in Indonesia, we talked about bombing the aircraft carrier. If we can deploy the Conquerors to Sudan, maybe we will have a chance to blow them up!

It doesn't matter whether it hits or not, after all, Aegis's defense is no joke.

However, whether you dare to fire this shot is very important.

As for America’s revenge?

What international joke are you kidding, Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Libya

The affairs in the Middle East are enough for the United States to drink from. Is it possible that they can open another table?

It really works!

Chen Chen took a deep breath and picked up the satellite phone at hand.

His first call was not to Xiaoyu or Ivan, but to Peng Xucheng.

After the call was connected, he asked directly:

“If I were to ship something to Sudan that was supposed to be shipped to Syria, is there anything you can do?”

"Sudan?!"

Peng Xucheng on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously lowered his voice and asked:

"Do you really want to do it?"

"Well, it's not illegal to try."

". It's nonsense to talk about whether this plan is illegal or not."

"If any problems arise during the process, it may lead to consequences that no one can handle - have you talked to the north?"

"No, I have to confirm whether you have the ability first."

"."

Peng Xucheng on the other end of the phone was silent for a few seconds, then replied:

"To be honest, I really do."

"And the speed can be very fast."

"But. The risk is also very high."

"Tell me about it?"

" Don't go through the Gulf of Aden, but go through the Bab el-Mandeb Strait and land in Somalia. "

"There are plenty of contractors in Mogadishu who can transport this stuff. Let alone a few missiles, they dare to transport dirty bombs if you give them."

"Starting from Mogadishu, we first enter Kenya, then fly directly from Kenya across South Sudan to Chad, then fly from Chad to Libya, and finally transport it from North Sudan and the Egyptian border to the Red Sea."

"The countries we pass along the way are... you know, there is no possibility of any inspection."

"Especially Chad. After arriving there, it will be a smooth journey to Sudan."

"What's the difficulty?"

Chen Chen interrupted Peng Xucheng and asked cautiously.

"Two difficulties."

"First, the transport plane from Kenya to Chad must be a large transport plane."

"Second, inland transportation in Chad. Chad's roads cannot be said to be bad, it should be said that there are almost no roads at all, and we must take land transportation from Chad, which may delay time."

"Is there an alternative? I want speed."

"Yes. Take a risk and cross the entire Sudan and fly directly to Khartoum."

"Got it."

Chen Chen nodded slightly, and then said:

"I will find a way to get the plane, and you will find a way to determine the route."

"Don't worry about the cost, this time, someone will definitely pay for us."

"Okay, I'll find a way."

With a snap, the phone was hung up.

Without any pause, Chen Chen picked up the phone again and dialed a number that he had long been familiar with.

"You say."

The phone was connected, and the voice of the fish on the other end was a little tired.

But after listening to Chen Chen's first sentence, the tired voice suddenly became sharp.

"What?! Ship things to Sudan?!"

"Sinking Ship, are you crazy?!"

Chen Chen's eardrums were hurt by Xiaoyu's voice. After a few seconds of pause, he said cautiously:

"This is an opportunity."

"If we can really ship things to Sudan this time, do you know what it means to us?"

"Syria is important, but isn't the Red Sea more important?"

"Of course, Sudan can't be ours. It can't be as obedient as Syria."

"But... it's better to let the Russians control Sudan than the Americans, isn't it?"

"."

Xiaoyu on the other end of the phone fell into a long silence.

Chen Chen waited patiently for her reply, and finally, Chen Chen got the answer he wanted.

"Sinking Ship, you didn't make this call."

"We don't know anything."
