Chapter 983 Mutiny
"We are now on the offense very smoothly." In Baghdad, Kusai heard Rajavi's report: "Now, we have seized the central street of Yazd and are moving towards the government building."
This strike was a total raid. Since Yazd was not directly adjacent to the current Rajavi government-occupied area and Iraq-occupied area, Yazd's defenders had no defense at all. For example, most of them did not issue bullets. Even the defenders on duty in Yazd city were empty in their gun chambers. When they suddenly had no defense, Rajavi's army appeared. They led the tanks and followed the soldiers sitting in the trucks. After entering the city, they spread out and advanced to various important locations. Then, they fought with the defenders.
Most of the soldiers who died were attacked by the defenders in close combat, and the defenders fought with them, but the casualties were limited.
However, when attacking the government building and the provincial governor's residence, they encountered a tenacious counterattack from the guards. The guards were equipped with live ammunition, and the two sides fought fiercely. Even a 69 tank was destroyed. Only after all the guards here were killed were pacified.
The citizens of Yazd looked at the uninvited guests with fear. Under the high pressure of the local government, the Rajavi government was described as the embodiment of evil.
After occupying Yazd, Rajavi delivered a speech on the government building, announcing that they had liberated the entire Yazd region. In Yazd region, policies will be implemented with the existing liberated areas, to develop the local economy and improve people's living standards. At the same time, the original unreasonable regulations will be abandoned and they will be free!
Rajavi was full of confidence. In Persian history, there were very few national leaders who could command the army and rush to the front line to fight. He was even as famous as Emperor Cyrus.
Just as Rajavi's TV scene spread throughout Persia, a tragic news was circulating wildly, and a tragic massacre was carried out in a mountainous area of the Yazd region. They used extremely powerful weapons to brutally kill more than 2,000 people there, without leaving any of them. The scene was terrible.
Holmzgan Province, downtown of Port Abbas.
"The situation is very clear now. After several years of preparation, Rajavi and Iraq have finally begun to attack our southern region." Zad said.
"If they dare to come, we must let them never come back!" said Dex, the commander of the 32nd Brigade of the Reserve garrison in the province.
There is no return? Zad looked at the indignant brigade commander and said, "What do we use to make them have no return?"
"We have an army! I have a brigade of soldiers under my command. We will use our flesh and blood to block the Iraqis' advancement. Even if we are all killed in battle, we will give the biggest blow to the Iraqis and the rebels under Rajavi!" said Dex.
"Then you are all dead, and Rajavi still put his flag on our city. What's the use?"
"We also have the ace troops trained by Commander Odo. They will support us."
Odo Zad said: "Don't you know yet? Just the day before yesterday, Commander Odo's ace troops, including his entire base, were buried in the fire."
"Yes, if Odo's troops were still there, they would definitely counterattack the Yazd region. It is said that all Rajavi's troops were fighting this time. The powerful Iraqi army did not dispatch, and Odo would never sit idly by and watch the Yazd city fall into Rajavi's hands." A man said.
"It is obvious that our entire southern region has no ability to stop them. Instead of doing so, we might as well make our wise choice. The north has already surrendered. It is said that in the northern region, the government has invested a lot of money to carry out infrastructure construction, and their living standards have been greatly improved." Zad continued.
When Dex's face changed when he heard Zad say this, "Governor, what do you mean by saying this? Do you want us to surrender to that traitor, that Iraqi lackey?"
"If we don't do this, then there will be only the end of destruction." Zad said: "Now, the Iraqi army has occupied Geshm Island, and they have built airports on the island. As long as they want, they will deal with us like they would against Commander Odo at any time. Do you want the Port of Abbas to be turned into ruins?"
"We live and die with our land!" Dex said: "Zad, if you want to surrender to Rajavi, then you are our traitor!"
"Dex, pay attention to your attitude. Are you talking to your commander like this? You are rebelling!" Zad said.
"You are rebelling!" said Dex: "You want to surrender to Rajavi and be an Iraqi lackey!"
"Dex, given your current attitude, I announce that you will be removed from your position as brigade commander of the 32nd Brigade," said Zad.
"Hmph! Do you think, I don't know what you think? Now, the entire government building is surrounded by my people. Zad, you are trying to surrender to Izhat. I declare that you are no longer the governor of Holmzgan Province!"
The others were stunned, and a word rang out in their minds, mutiny!
Before Dex came, he had already sent troops to "protect" the entire government building, because he had already vaguely guessed that the governor of his side was not firm enough. At this time, there must be a strong person to serve as governor. If the governor has any illegal conspiracy, then he must firmly stop it!
"Come!" said Dex.
With his orders, a large number of armed personnel rushed into the conference room and controlled the entire conference room.
"Dex, can you stop our entire Persia from reunifying together?" Zad said: "You do this, it will only bring us back into the fire of war. We have lost so many brothers in the war. Are you going to let them die innocently again?"
Zad looked at Dex coldly, as if he was not afraid at all, completely different from his original performance.
"I only know that Rajavi is an illegal government. We have to arm ourselves and we have to counterattack and go back to the north!" There was a sense of fanaticism in Dex's eyes.
Counterattack? Can't you see the general trend? Zad shook his head in disappointment.
"Governor, if you can lead us to our great cause, you will still be the Governor. If you don't regret it, don't blame me for being rude." Dex said.
"I just hope that there will be no more war in Holmzgan Province. I just hope that our people can be peaceful, which is more important than anything else," said Zad.
Zad's words moved the hearts of the others present. They all died in wars for several consecutive years, and these wars could have been avoided. Although faith is important, it is even more important to survive. They have no other choice.
Now, they have no capital to confront the North at all.
After hearing Zad's words, Dex was disappointed, "Since that's the case, don't blame me for being rude. Take them all away!"
After controlling this place, he called on the entire province to secretly smuggle arms in, organize an army to counterattack and return to the north!
Unexpectedly, he ordered, but the soldiers around him did not move.
"Izatvi, why don't you do it?" Dex said to the commander who rushed in, the company commander of the direct guard company of the 32nd Brigade.
"The commander of the 32nd Preparatory Brigade Dex conspires to rebel. Now I announce that Dex has been removed from his position as 32nd Brigade commander, and Izartve becomes the new brigade commander, and Dex is taken down." Zad said.
"Yes!" As Izartve's voice, Dex's face turned pale: "Izartve, do you dare to rebel against me?"
"Brig Commander, I don't want to rebel against you, but the soldiers of the whole brigade are unwilling to follow you to die. Even Odo's people were bombed to death. What are our abilities to fight against Iraq?" Izartve said: "Brig Commander, this era has changed. We do not follow the trend of history, and it will only be crushed by the wheels of history."
"Issuing an announcement, we responded to the call of the Rajavi government, and the entire province decided to return to the rule of the Rajavi government." Zad said.
After returning to Holmzgan Province and becoming the governor, Zad had already figured out one thing: obeying Iraq and obeying the Rajavi government was his most correct choice. Looking at the north, after obeying, the former governor was still the governor, and they could maintain his current status, and they had no capital to confront the north at all.
However, the troops in the province, the brigade commander of the 32nd Brigade, were a diehard, so he had been secretly making arrangements, bribing Dex's close subordinates, and shattering Dex's conspiracy.
Holmzgan Province is the first province to return to the south, so Zad knew that he would definitely be welcomed by Rajavi.
Sure enough, after hearing the statement from Holmzgan Province in Rajavi, Yazd Province, he was very happy and praised Zad for his behavior and appointed Zad to continue as the governor of Holmzgan Province.
At the same time, Iraq's troops stationed in Geshm Island, who received the news, crossed the strait and entered the port of Abbas, where they temporarily maintained order.
With the entry of Iraq, oil and gas development in the coastal areas of Holmzgan Province is about to begin. Kusai knows that in later generations, in 2009, a huge natural gas reserve was discovered here, with a daily natural gas production capacity of 10 billion cubic feet, becoming the second largest natural gas production center in Persia.
However, the military significance here is even more important.
