The muzzle of the t72 tank is pointed at the city area a few kilometers away. As long as they have an order, they can rush in at any time and liberate Damascus!

However, as the sun slowly turned to the south, it was already noon, the order still did not come out.

In order to prevent the fuel from running out while waiting, except for the engines of a few tanks and armored vehicles that were still running at idle, the rest of the vehicles have been shut down.

"What does this mean? Let's rush to Damascus in half an evening and not let us attack. What are you waiting for!" A company commander of a tank company complained.

"I heard that the First Armored Division is coming from Mosul. Does President Kusai want to let the First Armored Division arrive and launch an attack?" said another deputy company commander.

"How can that be! We arrived first, why should we wait for them to attack? It's enough to have us." The company commander was even more dissatisfied. Although the First Armored Division was the Republic Guard and the direct unit, their 60th Armored Division was also a loud unit.

The competition among Iraqi troops is also very strong. If the 60th Armored Division had not made contributions to the battle in Khuzestan Province, it would have never been the first unit in ordinary troops to replace the t72 tank, a 1,000-horsepower engine, a 125-mm caliber artillery, and the latest ammunition was also issued, making this unit a unit that would definitely dare to fight tough battles, undertake the most difficult tasks, and win.

So, they wanted to make up their strength. They rushed into Damascus and resolved the battle, and would write another brilliant mark on the achievements of their armored divisions.

However, the order has not been issued, so they just waited.

"If we wait any longer, the pressure outside will be very high. Just half an hour ago, the US ambassador to Baghdad protested to us, claiming that our operation was a serious violation of international conventions. We hope that we can withdraw our troops as soon as possible." Foreign Minister Tarik said.

The Americans, this time, were really powerful, and put pressure on themselves so quickly. Two hours ago, they issued a statement that the issue of supporting Syria will be solved by the Syrian people themselves. Rifat has occupied Damascus. Isn’t that clear support for Rifat? Now, we are going to use international conventions to suppress ourselves. What does it have to do with the United States? This is the Arab world!

However, Kusai also knew that the United States did not take any ruthless measures, nor did it use any weapons to ban sales before suppressing itself. The reason why the United States did this is the influence of Jews, and Jews definitely do not want to see the establishment of a pro-Iraq Syria.

The Jews don’t know that the relationship between Israel and the United States will soon have a big crack under their own push. So now, let’s give them some foreplay first.

"Notify the United States that our oil pipeline in Syria was blown up by Israel's Kingfisher Special Forces, resulting in a reduction of 200,000 barrels of crude oil output per day, causing our crude oil export capacity to further decline. The rise in international oil prices has nothing to do with us, and it was entirely caused by Israel's deliberate destruction!" Kusai said: "At the same time, we announce to the whole world that the cause of our oil pipeline was damaged, and photos of several Israeli people captured by us were released. We express our strongest condemnation for the Israelis' behavior, and we reserve the right to use force to strike against Israel's anti-human terrorist acts."

Let the whole world turn to Israel. They have done this and see what the police in the United States and the world will express!

As for the cause of death of two important Syrian figures, Bashar and Hafiz, it is necessary to wait until Bashar seizes power and Bashar will conduct investigations and prove it.

While resolving the Syrian issue on the one hand, it also began to sow conflicts between Israel and the United States on the other hand. The United States will definitely not welcome what Israel did this time.

"On the diplomatic side, however, it is more important for us to break Damascus military as soon as possible. Now, the rebels in Damascus are stepping up the construction of street offensives. The longer it drags on, the more unfavorable it will be for us. In street fighting, we must be prepared for casualties." said Defense Minister Adnan.

No matter how elite the army is, there are many casualties in street fighting. Adnan is a little puzzled. President Kusai has always been unwilling to fight street fighting, but this is the case in Abadan. Now, if you want to liberate Damascus, street fighting is necessary. Why did you start to retreat? He doesn't know that at this time, is it the most appropriate to launch an attack? The longer it drags on, the greater their casualties will be.

It was already afternoon, and Adnan decided that it was time to mention it with the president.

"Yes, if we fight street fighting, the faster we should be better, otherwise our casualties will increase." Kusai said: "But it is not just our casualties. If street fighting starts, the casualties of Damascus will be quite serious. Rifat is actually trying to use civilians from the whole city as hostages. If we really attack, we may not liberate Damascus, but destroy Damascus."

After the street fighting, it will be ruins. There is no doubt that Iraq is going to liberate Damascus. If Damascus becomes ruins, it will probably have a bad reputation internationally. Many countries, such as Israel, definitely hope to make Iraq bad.

Therefore, Kusai has been thinking about how to avoid such problems. Now that the Iraqi army has surrounded Damascus, they have already gained the lead. As long as they do not make mistakes, this action can be successfully completed and their strategic goals can be achieved.

Then, Kusai thought that if he wanted to solve the key problem of the current situation, he would solve that key figure, Rifat!

The rebellion was planned by Rifat, and Rifat was able to obtain the support of the Fourth Armored Division based on his own identity. Therefore, as long as he could control Rifat, he could control the situation in Damascus!

Therefore, Kusai had already thought of a solution to the problem. To capture the thief, first capture the king, use the special forces to capture Rifat!

Now, although Rifat has occupied Damascus, he only has the Fourth Armored Division, which guards Damascus, and his troops are mainly focused on the upcoming street battles. Therefore, their troops are still very tight. As for the Republic Guard who originally guarded Damascus, Rifat is definitely not at ease to use the original police force even if they surrender.
