"Under the president, Iraq's oil pipelines in our territory were attacked by unknown armed forces." In Damascus, President Hafiz received this news from the Minister of Defense.

This Iraqi oil pipeline costs a certain fee to Syria every year. When it heard that the pipeline was attacked, President Hafez was also concerned and said, "We will immediately send troops to encircle and suppress the armed division."

"We have sent nearby troops to rush there, but there has been news from Iraq that they have used a force to rescue our personnel." said Defense Minister Mustafa Taras.

After hearing this, almost everyone heard Mustafa’s dissatisfaction.

Mustafa was Hafiz's right-hand man. On November 13, 1970, Hafiz Assad launched a "correction campaign" to reorganize the regional leaders and government of the Baeking Socialist Party, and served as prime minister. He was elected president the following year. At this time, Mustafa had firmly followed Hafiz's side. It can be said that he was also a founding official of Syria now.

Such an old minister, for Syria, naturally hopes to become a leader in the Middle East, which is consistent with Hafiz's wish.

But now, this idea seems to be getting farther and farther away, especially in this battle for the Golan Heights, Syria lost several divisions of armored troops, but nothing gained.

During several words, Mustafa has expressed his dissatisfaction with Iraq. Now, Iraq is too bullying and actually wants to send his own troops to Syria?

Syria is not Jordan. There is no need for Iraq's military help, they can solve the problem by themselves!

"I think," said Major General Manav, the commander of the air force, at this time, "we are on the first and second line troops there. They only have a few trucks, not even armored vehicles, and they can reach there. It will take at least two or three hours. By then, the armed sub-district will be gone long ago, and it is only more than one hundred kilometers away from the border of Iraq. Iraq's special forces can arrive in more than half an hour. The armed sub-district attacks Iraq's oil pipelines, and we agree to their request, which will play a great role in our ability to quickly encircle and suppress these armed personnel who have entered our territory. I guess it is very likely that the Israelites did it."

When Major General Manav said this, the old Mustafa showed a sense of dissatisfaction in his eyes.

Lieutenant General Mustafa was born in Rastan village near Homs on May 11, 1932. He is now in his fifties and joined the Arab Baath Party in 1947. After graduating from the Military Academy in 1954, he served as a second lieutenant officer of the armored corps. After the merger of Egypt and Syria, he studied battalion-level command in the Egyptian army from December 1959 to September 1961. From 1962 to 1963, he participated in the Free Officer Movement, served as Chief of Staff of the Fifth Armored Brigade in February 1964, and served as commander of the Central Military Region in 1965. In November 1970, he cooperated with Assad to launch a coup and served as a member of the temporary regional command of the Baath Party. In December 1970, he served as Minister of National Defense. In 1978, he was promoted to quasi-lieutenant general second only to President Lieutenant General Assad.

Compared with Lieutenant General Mustafa's resume, Major General Manav, 35 years old this year, has never participated in any formal conflicts. Most of them have achieved a decisive victory in the command of the Beca Valley in 1982 and captured several Israeli fighter jets, which has gradually risen until he served as the commander of the Air Force.

It can be said that Mustafa belongs to the senate school, while Manav belongs to the young and strong school.

The conflict between the two factions has actually appeared slightly, and the obvious conflict is in the relationship with Iraq.

The veterans are all with Syria's feelings as a major Middle East power. They are very dissatisfied with Iraq's rise. Iraq's development has surpassed Syria. Whether in terms of military power or economy, Syria's pride is breaking little by little, and the veterans are very unwilling to give up.

But the young and strong people are different. They believe that Syria's defense policy should be slightly tilted. Originally, Syria was a die-hard ally of the Soviet Union, and the Syrian army was full of Soviet-style equipment. However, Syria has good choices, such as Iraq. In the last battle in the Beka Valley, if it weren't for Iraq's electric interference equipment, they would not have won the victory later. Moreover, Iraq rescued Syria several times. If it weren't for Iraq's aid, the Israeli army would have driven in.

Although the struggle is only in secret, the president also knows that Hafez tends to be his dream, that is, Syria should be a major Middle East power! It is the leader of the Middle East! However, he can also see the reality clearly.

"How do you know that it was done by the Israelites? Why can't it be an ulterior motive of another country?" said Bazh-Assad, the eldest son of the president, and now the successor of the president, so he spoke a little harshly.

"Another country?" Hafez asked, "Bazi, do you mean?"

"For example, Iraq itself claims that the oil pipeline was destroyed by armed personnel. Will these armed personnel be theirs? Then, they set foot on our land with such an excuse? Originally, our Golan Heights were taken away by Iraq, and now they want to seize our eastern region." Baz said.

Although Bazh (also translated as Basil), born in 1962, is young, but he is definitely not a young and strong person. If he can become president in the future, he naturally hopes that his country will be strong. Bazh's hostility towards Iraq is strengthened.

"Commander, the Iraqis, shouldn't have done that, right? Besides, if they hadn't blocked the Israeli army, we would have faced a great military threat." Manav knew that he shouldn't have contradicted the future president, but Manav couldn't help it anymore. He was still a little angry now.

Baz is now the commander of the Syrian Republic Guard and looks majestic, but Manav knows that this future president has such an "extraordinary" experience.

Just last time, if there was no Bazh's proposal, they would have only occupied the Golan Heights and then held on to their powerful armored forces, and there would be no problem. However, this guy had a vision to take the opportunity to help Yasir establish the Palestinian State. As a result, the precious armored forces were lost in that way and had not been filled yet, which led to a great decline in the combat effectiveness of the Syrian army.

This guy, not only did he not have a good understanding, but he not only did not reflect on his own mistakes. On the contrary, he was also complaining that Iraq occupied the Golan Heights. If it weren't for them, Damascus would have become a Jew. Besides, the garrisons in the Golan Heights were not only Iraqis, but also Saudi, Kuwait and Jordanians. They were joint garrisons and peacekeeping. No matter what, they were better than the Israeli garrisons, right?

However, in Bazh's eyes, it was Iraq that seized their Golan Heights! Manav couldn't help but finally contradict Bazh's, and he was still young and energetic.

"How do you know that it was not done by the Iraqis? Only our army has passed and can be confident." Baz said: "President, we must not allow Iraqi militants to enter our territory. This is related to the dignity of our Syrian."

Bazh's words touched President Hafiz, saying: "Tell Iraq that we, Syria, are fully capable of solving any problems that occur on our Syrian territory. Our army is still strong and does not require Iraq to send its own armed forces to carry out military operations on our territory."

Of course he didn't know that at this time, President Kusai's special forces were already in a fierce exchange of fire with the armed forces.

Kasami finally successfully detonated the grenade. With him as the center, two Jews were killed and three people were injured. This time, his suicide grenade detonated the Jews' great combat power.

At this time, Golani had already started to regret it. He asked an oil worker to kill and injure five of their elite special forces, but he could not explain.

But at this moment, he had already heard the roar from a distance above his head, which was the unique sound of a helicopter.

The Syrians came so much? Golani knew that it was definitely not their Israeli helicopters, and they didn't have such a large range.

However, they had investigated in advance that the Syrian army had no helicopters at all, only wheeled trucks, and even armored vehicles with strong off-road capabilities.

Where did the helicopter come from? Moreover, listening to the sound, why does it look a bit like the sound of the helicopter equipped by one?

Suddenly, Golani reacted: "Retreat, we retreat immediately."

What came was not Syrian troops at all, but Iraqi special forces!

If it were any other time and other places, Golani would not mind, and would engage in a special forces battle with them to wash away the shame of the last time.

However, this time it is not possible because they are fighting on a country far away from Israel, surrounded by enemies. If they are stared at, they will not be able to escape. Go west and far from the coastline. To the east, it is Iraq. Only to north and to Türkiye, there may be a glimmer of vitality.

Therefore, you can't continue to linger here. If you are bitten by the opponent's special forces, you may not be able to escape for a few days. Moreover, if a large number of Syrian troops surrounded them, it would be troublesome.

Special forces are not gods. If they are surrounded by thousands or even tens of thousands of troops, the ending will be only one.
