Return to 78: Why are all the Americans panicking about doing scientific research?

According to the report from the escaped troops, Abdul had already planned to engage in street fighting.

A large number of high-rise buildings have been renovated and transformed from ordinary office buildings into military buildings.

The adjutant said, "Sir, we should remember that the Rak Empire has rich experience in street fighting. In their war with Persia, Persia suffered repeated defeats in the early stages of the war due to various reasons. Later, Persia decisively changed its tactics from positional warfare to street fighting, turning cities into bloody grinding wheels."

"Especially during the Battle of Khorramshahr, Persia brought the city's residents under military management, turning them from ordinary people into militias. It took the 100,000-strong army of the Rak Empire 47 days to take over the city, with a loss of nearly 30,000 people."

"After this battle, the city was renamed Blood City to commemorate the people who died in the war."

Hearing his subordinates' reminder, Commander George rubbed his face helplessly.

The Lak troops are indeed good at street fighting.

In other words, they have more experience in street fighting than the US military.

Persia used urban street fighting and human wave tactics at all costs.

It successfully delayed Abdul's offensive and bought a lot of time for the team to regroup.

Never expected it.

One day, the United States will become the United States of Latin America, and will have to fight a life-and-death urban battle with the latter.

"Commander, I finally found a good point in Abdul."

Longguo, on the edge of a port city dock.

Lin Kaifeng, wearing a suit, stood with his hands behind his back, watching one cargo ship after another set sail.

General Liu, who was also at the scene, joked: "This is rare. No matter Abdul or Omar, they are all fools in your mouth. It is like the sun rising from the west to find good qualities in them."

"Tell me, what good qualities do you see in Abdul?"

Lin Kaifeng smiled faintly and said, "Two words, listen to advice."

"You'll listen?"

General Liu was stunned when he heard this.

The memory goes back to many days ago.

Lin Kaifeng advised the military and the country not to engage in direct confrontation with the United States.

Only by creating signs that Long Country does not dare to go against the United States will the United States feel confident and bold to send troops to Lak Country.

Over the years.

The United States and the desert countries were unable to spare any effort and turned the graveyard of empires into a swamp that submerged the Soviet Union.

The Soviet Union's foreign military power was firmly dragged into the graveyard of empires.

The Dragon Kingdom can also turn the Rak Kingdom into the American version of the imperial graveyard.

Stopping the export of military equipment to Latin America does not mean that civilian equipment cannot change the unfavorable situation.

It does not mean that the United States can smoothly resolve the major concern of Abdul.

Quite the opposite is true.

The imperial cemetery tailor-made for the United States will not only consume a large amount of America's blood and bones.

It will also bring misfortune to Western countries.

Lin Kaifeng said calmly: "As the old saying goes, in a siege, the attacker needs ten times the number of troops to successfully capture the city. In modern warfare, countries are trying their best to avoid entering the urban street fighting stage with the enemy."

"The United States wants to occupy the country of Latvia, and it will inevitably have to engage in street fighting with the Latvian defenders. Relying on oil, Latvia has become a wealthy country that attracts global attention."

"Although the war has destroyed the economy of Lak, Lak's urban construction is still quite good. Relying on the economic dividends brought by oil, Lak has built a large number of modern cities, and the areas of the cities are getting bigger and bigger."

Lin Kaifeng sarcastically said that it is easy to get into the United States, but it is difficult to get out.

General Liu nodded and said, "Sell the meter-wave radar we just developed to the Soviet Union, and then send it to Lak. If we can really find and shoot down one or two American stealth fighters, the impact on American morale will be unprecedentedly huge."

"But doing so would very likely expose us and reveal that we have mastered the technical secrets of the reconnaissance drone."

Hearing this, Lin Kaifeng said playfully: "Old General, if you were the commander-in-chief of the United States, would you rather believe that the Soviet Union has mastered this technology, or that Dragon Country has mastered this technology?"

"Of course it's the Soviet Union."

General Liu blurted out without hesitation: "In the military field, the United States has never looked at us with a straight face. Last time we purchased the USS Merle aircraft carrier, if the United States regarded us as a major military opponent, it would definitely not allow us to successfully obtain the complete Merle aircraft carrier."

Lin Kaifeng said: "Stereotypes are a very interesting thing. Even if we take the initiative to announce that we have mastered radar and surface-to-air weapons that can restrain F-117 stealth attack aircraft, the United States will never believe it."

"The United States prefers to believe that high-tech weapons were developed by the Soviet Union."

Lin Kaifeng talked freely.

The United States has always regarded the Soviet Union as its opponent. Apart from the Soviet Union, no other country is worthy of the United States' attention.

General Liu smiled and said, "I have to say that you have really grasped the mentality of the United States. If I were a senior official in the United States, even if I had doubts, I would not be willing to believe that Longguo's military technology would surpass that of the United States."

“I am even more unwilling to believe that the agreement we reached with the Soviet Union was both open and covert.”

"We will force the United States into this war and achieve the goal of destroying its potential."

After saying this, Lin Kaifeng sneered sarcastically.

The United States will always think of it.

The Dragon Kingdom and the Soviet Union prepared ropes respectively, waiting for the United States to sink its feet into the mud, and then they worked together to tie the United States' hands and feet tightly together with the Latvian Kingdom.

Once the United States successfully occupies the country of Lak, the desert countries will all kneel down before the US military hegemony.

By then, the Soviet Union's oil will become worthless.

Among the major oil producing areas in the world, the oil from the desert world is the best.

The excellence mentioned here refers not only to output and quality, but also to the difficulty of mining.

It is no exaggeration to say that if you dig dozens of deep pits in the desert, you will inevitably find oil.

In the Soviet Union, oil extraction is several times more difficult than in desert countries.

Seventy-five percent of oil fields are located in permafrost zones.

The North Sea oil fields controlled by Britain are deep-sea oil fields.

The difficulty of mining is roughly the same as that of the Soviet Union's permafrost oil fields.

The maintenance is high, and the profit is not much.

Let’s use an analogy of a barrel of oil costing one hundred dollars.

The cost of extracting oil in a desert country is US$20, and the net profit from selling it is US$80.

The cost of opening up the frozen soil oil fields of the Soviet Union is as high as US$50-60.

The Western world has abundant offshore oil fields, but is still eyeing the desert world's oil.

If the technology is not up to standard, the investment in either extracting permafrost oil or offshore oil will be astronomical.

When the United States controls global oil pricing, the Soviet Union's oil prices will certainly be suppressed to an unbearable level.

I lose money for every barrel I sell, and the more I sell, the more I lose.

Coupled with the huge maintenance costs, the Soviet Union's oil export system will collapse completely.
