Rejecting Qinghua Baoyan, I became a military officer

Chapter 745 Death and Life!
If it were a past life, there really wouldn't be such a candidate.
Shadak?
Stop being funny!

Back then, countless YLK people wanted to kill Shadak!

However, the world is completely different.

Although the final outcome of the YLK war did not change.

However, Saddam Hussein did not back down; he truly fought the United States to the bitter end.

Even though Saddam Hussein had already transferred most of his family members to Russia, and also transferred his family wealth.

However, Saddam himself has not left YLK and is still persisting.

After careful analysis, the Dragon Kingdom believes there is an 80% probability that this intelligence is true.

Therefore, Xu Ye took this emergency action.

If possible, do everything possible to ensure that Saddam leaves YLK alive.

Of course, if Shadama can leave smoothly and safely without Xu Ye's help, then Xu Ye naturally doesn't need to intervene.

In short, the goal is to keep Saddam Hussein alive as much as possible, so as to keep America's energy tied up in the post-war quagmire of the YLK.

After all, a living Saddam Hussein and a dead Saddam Hussein are completely different for the future YLK resistance.

Anyone with a modicum of insight could have figured this out.

Perhaps this seems somewhat out of line with the style of the Dragon Kingdom.

But don't forget, apart from those few countries, China is essentially a major and powerful nation that ranks among the top in the world. How could it possibly be a harmless little white rabbit? Anyone who believes that is doomed!

"Finally we're here!"

Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar place not far away, Xu Ye spat out the sand in his mouth.

At this moment, it had been almost 24 hours since he left the Air Force C Division base.

To arrive at the mission destination in such a short time under such absolute secrecy is not just fast, it's extremely fast.

At this moment, Xu Ye, even without his headscarf, still looks like a typical Arab.

"Shadow, where are you?"

Half an hour later, Xu Ye settled down in the ruins of a building that had been partially destroyed by the bomb, leaning against a dilapidated sofa as he pondered.

At this moment, the territory that Saddam Hussein can control, let's just say control, is less than a province, with an area of ​​less than 10,000 square kilometers.

For YLK, which has nineteen provinces and a total area of ​​over 400,000 square kilometers, doesn't this mean the war is about to end?

In this situation, no matter who comes, it won't make a difference!
Unless, apart from the United States, the other permanent members of the UN Security Council join forces, just like during the Korean War, when North Korea almost drove South Korea back to the sea.

However, the US landing at Incheon completely shattered North Korea's dream of unifying the country, and North Korea was pushed back by the US. If China hadn't intervened, North Korea would have been finished!

Of course, given the current situation, this scenario is simply impossible.

In that case, it would be a standard S3 activation.

Therefore, the end of the YLK war was inevitable, and the destruction of the Saddam regime was a foregone conclusion.

Or rather, after the United States occupied Baghdad, Saddam Hussein's regime was already overthrown and is now merely clinging to life.

A country with a land area of ​​over 400,000 square kilometers may be a large country in the Middle East, but it is not large in the world. Once the capital of a country is occupied, it basically means the demise of the country and the change of regime!

To be honest, Xu Ye never expected that Shadam would be able to hold on this long.

At first, Xu Ye thought that Saddam Hussein was just putting on an act and would eventually flee abroad with a huge fortune.

But who could have imagined that he would eventually become a strongman in the Middle East and a hero in the Arab world?

Even now, Sadam still hasn't left.

This is, to be honest, a bit counterintuitive!

Actually, if we think about how Shadak solved the problem in his previous life, it's not entirely incomprehensible that things have turned out this way.

In his past life, if Saddam Hussein had been willing to fully cooperate with the United States after being captured, he would at least not have been sentenced to hanging.

However, it is clear that Saddam Hussein still had some integrity.

However, the fact that Shadama was so principled made some countries in China feel rather annoyed.

At this point, having a living Saddam Hussein is the most important thing. If he dies or is captured by the United States, things will get really messed up.

In contrast, Da Mao didn't seem to care much about Shadam's fate.

Whether or not the US Congress will be restrained next, it doesn't matter to Russia.

After all, even when the war was raging, the United States never relaxed its sanctions against Russia!
Nonsense, you've sold so many weapons and provided such strong support, who else would we target if not you?
In this way, whether Saddam Hussein lives or dies, or is even captured by the United States, it doesn't really make much difference to Russia.

In any case, Saddam Hussein's greatest value has been lost.

Of course, if Saddam Hussein could leave YLK alive and head to Moscow, Russia wouldn't refuse.

If we make so much money off them and don't even offer them this much protection, who will dare to associate with Russia in the future?
Anyway, we've already offended the US, so what's one more tug-of-war?

However, this is contingent on Shadam being able to leave YLK alive.

"How can we find Shadak quickly?" Xu Ye muttered to himself, listening to the occasional explosions.

It has to be said that the atmosphere on the battlefield was really exciting. Xu Ye felt that his mind was working faster than usual, with one plan after another flashing through his mind and being analyzed and compared.

"Let's try something more challenging!"

Xu Ye smiled slightly and quickly made a decision.

If some countries in China want Saddam Hussein to live, then the United States definitely wants to kill or capture him.

Therefore, at this point, the United States was probably the last country to know Saddam Hussein's approximate whereabouts.

Even if we don't know now, unless Saddam has already left YLK, his whereabouts will be exposed sooner or later, and he will be captured by the United States.

After all, the area where Saddam Hussein can move around is only so big now, and he is definitely not alone these days. It's impossible for him not to leave any clues.

Therefore, the best way is to directly hack into the United States' information system.

Once the United States makes a discovery, Xu Ye will naturally know, which is much easier than Xu Ye searching for it himself.

This is something that is extremely difficult for others.

But for Xu Ye now, that's all there is to it.

Especially now, with war going on, it's even easier. Just think of it and do it!

However, before doing so, Xu Ye glanced at his skill panel and found that his master-level computer skills were more than enough.

It's not that I don't want to level up again, but the cost of reaching over 90,000 Liver Scrolls is too much, so I'm outta here.

If nothing unexpected happens, most of Xu Ye's skills will remain at the Master level for a long time to come. To reach the next level of Grandmaster, he will either have to accumulate experience little by little over time, or, if he really needs it, he can grit his teeth and spend tens of thousands of "grind scrolls".

A balance of nearly 400,000 Liver Scrolls may seem like a lot, but if you were to actually spend real money on it, it would only upgrade four skills to the Grandmaster level.

Looking at the dozens of skills on the system panel, these "grind points" are definitely a drop in the ocean.

After all, there are levels beyond the Grandmaster level, but the real blockbuster is the all-encompassing System Shop, where Xu Ye has so many things he wants.

Unfortunately, he was short of money, so most of the time, Xu Ye could only admire the view.

However, today, Xu Ye made a cautious purchase in the system store.

It wasn't much, less than a thousand Liver Scrolls in total, which almost used up all the gains from the journey.

Surely no one thinks Xu Ye's journey has been completely peaceful?

That's impossible!
Especially after entering YLK, danger is everywhere, not only from the collapsed social order, but also from the multinational coalition.

These multinational coalition forces are now truly on edge due to the YLK's relentless attacks.

If you sense danger, just do it. Artillery support is child's play, and aircraft and missiles are basic operations, until you confirm that the danger has passed.

Look closely, it says "feel" here!
Xu Ye expressed his understanding of this.

It's very simple. The United States has suffered enormous losses on the YLK battlefield. They've already shipped over 10,000 body bags back home.

To put it bluntly, the more triumphant the "Desert Operation" was back then, the more pathetic this war became.

They won, but for the world's only superpower at present, unless it's a resounding victory, it's actually a defeat.

It has lost its deterrent power; what it has depleted is its military influence.

In fact, if you take a closer look at America's foreign wars, you'll find that America is not strong.
On paper, their strength is undeniable!
But if we really talk about it, every single time it wasn't about overwhelming others with sheer power; many wars were one-sided victories.

If the other side has some strength, or is backed by a major power, then the final outcome is really hard to say.

The United States itself is well aware of this.

Unfortunately, what was expected to be a repeat of the war more than ten years ago turned out to be a different story. Saddam Hussein was surprisingly brave this time, and Russia was actually supporting him from behind.

Then, it turned into the mess it is today.

Therefore, for the United States today, killing or capturing Saddam Hussein, the culprit, is undoubtedly of paramount importance. It can at least save face and serve as a warning to others.

With these thoughts in mind, Xu Ye's hands kept moving, and he quickly assembled the equipment he had purchased from the system store.

The bulk of the cost was a computer using quantum technology, which directly cost Xu Ye over 800 Liver Scrolls.

Even so, it's only because it's the lowest-end quantum computer in the system's store. Xu Ye had his eye on it for a long time, but he just hadn't been willing to buy it.

The reason is simple: there was no need for it in the past.

Parsing techniques?
The data on those fighter jets and aircraft carriers that we "sent" before were hard to come by. How can we send such epoch-making things?

Furthermore, the reason it's so cheap is because it has anti-hacking settings, meaning you can only use it as a terminal and can't perform reverse engineering.

Otherwise, how could it be so cheap!
The system will absolutely not give you any loopholes to exploit when it comes to spending liver roll points.

In short, this is a quantum laptop whose performance surpasses that of the world's number one supercomputer when Xu Ye traveled through time.

That computing power, if we put it in today's terms, would really be considered a bit unfair.

However, just like this mission, stealth is paramount; we must not be detected.

Xu Ye's hacking into the US military's information system this time must also be done without the US military noticing.

Of course, powerful computing power is essential, and the stronger the computer's performance, the better.

"It's done!"

More than an hour later, with the help of a personal terminal provided by a US combat team he had previously killed, and with the support of his strong personal skills and equipment, Xu Ye hacked into the US military's information system without much effort.

From this moment on, Xu Ye achieved unilateral transparency in terms of information.

Of course, we still cannot be careless or act recklessly. We must never underestimate the United States' information security capabilities.

Fortunately, Xu Ye only needed to know information about Saddam Hussein; he didn't care about anything else.

Of course, if necessary, Xu Ye could directly cripple the United States' information system before it was exposed.

However, there's no need for it.

No matter how strong Xu Ye is, he is still just one person, unless he forms or joins a relevant department.

Clearly, this was not a preferred option for Xu Ye.

Unfortunately, there are many things that Xu Ye simply cannot explain.

As the saying goes, "If you don't weigh it, it's only a few ounces; but if you do, it's a thousand pounds."

For Xu Ye, things are going well right now.

So, keep a low profile!
After setting up a vibration alert for any messages from Shadawood, Xu Ye shifted to a more comfortable position and closed his eyes to rest.

At this moment, Xu Ye had not rested for more than 24 hours.

Although, for Xu Ye, not sleeping for three days and three nights is no problem.

However, that refers to normal circumstances.

How did Xu Ye spend the past 24 hours?

Therefore, while there was still time, Xu Ye naturally wanted to adjust himself to his best condition to ensure he could be ready to engage in the war at any time.

Although the leader eventually said that if things were impossible, we could choose to give up.

However, for Xu Ye, the word "give up" has not appeared in his dictionary for a long time. When was the last time?

Since we've accepted this mission, and in order to create a more favorable environment for the Dragon Kingdom in the future, it's better for Shadak to stay alive!
If there's really no other way, even a living Saddam Hussein absolutely cannot fall into the hands of the United States. At that time, a dead Saddam Hussein would be the best Saddam Hussein.

Everything is for the national interest!
