Chapter 760: Kuwait's Restoration (seeking monthly pass at the end of the month)
At three o'clock in the morning.

The US troops on the Kuwait border could no longer withstand the fierce attack of the Iraqi army.

The defeat began.

Desert plains like Kuwait have no strategic locations to defend and are therefore ideal for mechanized troop operations.

It is beneficial to the combat of the mechanized forces of the US army, and also to the combat of the mechanized forces of the Iraqi army.

Faced with the Iraqi army's superior strength, the 50,000 US troops were stunned from the very beginning.

The American troops couldn't understand why they stepped on landmines while the Iraqi troops were not afraid of stepping on landmines.

Is the Iraqi army so fierce?
But now, it's too late!
The US troops on this front were defeated.

Now it is the Iraqi armored forces that are dividing and encircling the U.S. troops.

It was only during the day that the coalition's air advantage became very obvious.

The Iraqi army could only passively take the beating and had to disperse, let alone pursue the fleeing American troops.

It lasted for ten days, and the Iraqi army withdrew from Kuwait, and the Arab coalition forces successfully took over Kuwait.

Kuwait City, the capital of Kuwait.

This day seemed very lively.

The King of Kuwait led the royal family and various state institutions back to Kuwait and took over the power of various towns in Kuwait.

The King of Kuwait held a press conference in Kuwait City, announcing that the Kuwaiti government had taken back control of Kuwait and Kuwait was officially restored.

The King of Kuwait thanked the Arab coalition and the Arab countries for their support to Kuwait, saying that it was because of their support for Kuwait's just cause that Kuwait was able to successfully restore its independence. He also thanked the United States and other countries for their support.

The King of Kuwait held a victory parade in Kuwait City, and 50,000 Kuwaiti regular troops, fully armed, accepted the inspection of the King of Kuwait.

This Kuwaiti regular army appeared to be much stronger than before the war.

Tank and armored brigades, soldiers armed to the teeth.

80式主战坦克、80式自行高炮、81式中型坦克、81式轻型坦克、81式步兵战车、各类自行火炮.
The tank armored brigade is so powerful that it can even be said to be stronger than the Iraqi army's tank armored brigade based on its equipment alone.

The infantrymen held Type 78 automatic rifles in their hands. They were equipped with Type 78 general-purpose machine guns, Type 78 heavy machine guns, Type 78 heavy sniper rifles and other weapons. They wore bulletproof vests and bulletproof helmets on their heads.

The air defense force is equipped with anti-aircraft machine guns, Type 80 self-propelled anti-aircraft guns, "Aegis" air defense missile systems, and "Vanguard" individual air defense missiles.

The King of Kuwait was very satisfied when he looked at his elite troops.

Of course, what made him even more satisfied was that the Iraqi army did not destroy Kuwait, and Kuwait's towns, infrastructure, oil wells, refineries, etc. were basically intact.

Some of the buildings were destroyed, but it was not done by the Iraqi army, but by the bombing of the US and other air forces.

This is what the King of Kuwait is most satisfied with.

Otherwise, the Iraqi army would cause massive destruction, and Kuwait would have to spend at least $100 billion or $200 billion on post-war reconstruction. More importantly, post-war reconstruction takes time.

From this aspect alone, spending a large amount of money to purchase weapons and equipment is simply making huge profits.

Not to mention, the sense of security that mercenaries give him is actually stronger than that of regular troops.

The news of Kuwait's restoration soon spread throughout the world.

It can be said that the purpose of the Gulf War has been achieved!
Saudi Arabia, capital Riyadh.

Royal Palace! Saudi King Fahd is meeting with Egyptian President Mubarak.

"Mubarak, I have to trouble you again to go to Baghdad to persuade Saddam!" said King Fahd.

Kuwait has now been restored, but the Gulf War is not over.

Because Saddam has not yet announced his acceptance of a ceasefire, the two sides have not yet reached a ceasefire agreement.

The Gulf War will only end if a ceasefire agreement is reached.

To persuade Saddam, the most suitable person was undoubtedly Mubarak.

"Fahd, you know, in the current situation, even if Saddam announces that he accepts a ceasefire, the Americans will not give up. Now the Americans are eager to destroy Iraq!" Mubarak said with a smile.

Although the ground force engagement was brief, the fighting was extremely fierce, causing huge losses to both sides.

The body bags that the United States had prepared were simply not enough.

So far, the United States and its allies have suffered heavy casualties. From the outbreak of the Gulf War to now, 3.8 US troops have been killed, and 0.5 of its allies have been killed, which is much greater than the losses of the entire Arab coalition, which has lost less than 1000 people in total.

As for the Iraqi army, more than 50,000 soldiers were killed in the Kuwait direction alone, and tens of thousands were probably injured. The number of wounded prisoners captured by the Arab coalition alone reached 40,000.

With such heavy losses, the US military will probably not easily accept a ceasefire agreement. Even if Saddam announces his acceptance of a ceasefire, it will be useless if the US military does not accept it.

"Mubarak, as long as Saddam announces a ceasefire, we are on the right side. We have 88 Arab troops!" King Fahd said, "Tell Saddam that as long as he announces a ceasefire, Iraq is still a member of our Arab world family, and we will also help Iraq with post-war reconstruction."

Mubarak said: "Fahd, what if the U.S. military does not accept the ceasefire and insists on destroying Iraq?"

This situation is entirely possible.

Because the United States is angry now, its intentions in this regard are already very clear.

Even the United States itself did not expect that the losses would be so great!
You know, after 43 days of air strikes, Iraq was hit hard and the coalition forces completely seized air supremacy. Under such circumstances, the US military and its allies suffered such heavy losses.

If a ground battle had been launched at the beginning, the US military would probably have suffered more than 100,000 casualties!
It can be said that in this final battle, the U.S. military was slapped hard in the face.

"Don't worry about that. We have ways to get the U.S. troops to leave!" King Fahd said in a deep voice. "The Middle East is important to the United States, but Europe is more important to the United States. If they have to choose between the two, the Americans will definitely choose Europe first."

"Even if the United States wants to stay in the Middle East, its European allies will not agree!" said King Fahd.

"Okay, in that case, I'll go to Baghdad!" Mubarak said, "But now all the airports in Iraq have been bombed, how can I get to Baghdad?"

Now all the airports in Iraq, whether military or civilian, have been bombed.

Even the roads that could accommodate airplanes were destroyed.

From the current news reports, the ruins show how badly Iraq was bombed.

Besides, the front line is so chaotic now, it is too dangerous to drive to Iraq.

Who knows, will we be killed by the Americans?

The Americans have been wanting to kill him for a long time.

Mubarak had to consider his own safety. In Iraq, Saddam would at most detain him but would not kill him. If the Americans knew about this, they would destroy him.

Anyway, up to now, American planes are still dropping bombs, and Americans say that this is not the first or second time that an accidental bombing has occurred.
