    If the seizure of power is just a small-scale battle in the revolutionary process, then the prelude to a larger battle has already begun.  For revolutionaries, political power is not the final goal, but only the beginning, in other words, the prelude to another more difficult struggle.  Saddam Hussein.  The last days of 1993 AD are coming, and the bustling Baghdad suddenly becomes quiet.  All the underground fires rushing underground suddenly stopped. This may be due to despair of the situation, or perhaps it is accumulating strength, waiting for the right time to explode violently.  But under this silence, several major power centers were illuminated all night long, and no one could sleep.  In the dewy morning light, more and more people were on the streets. Even at the most critical moment of the war, Baghdad did not implement curfew or blackout.  The sound of American and Israeli warplanes roaring over Baghdad was heard by many citizens.  But they still believe that the great General Qusay Abdullah can lead them to defeat these enemies and restore peace to the sky here.  Their trust was not wrong, Qusay Abdullah did it!  It's just that this military god who is invincible in the face of foreign enemies, when he faces his own people, can he still be as brave and resolute as before?  No one knows the answer, perhaps only history is the only witness.  Ould Sheikh Nowak walked out of the door of his house, looked at the twilight sky, and took a deep breath of the cool and fresh air.  He looked up to the southeast, which was the direction of Liberty Palace.  The distance was too far, and he didn't see the Freedom Palace. He only saw the statue of the Unknown Soldier on the hill next to Victory Square.  It was built by General Qusay in memory of the martyrs who died in the Iran-Iraq War.  In the square at the foot of the mountain, Qassem once erected a gallows and hung people with lofty ideals who loved the country and the people; it was also in this square that Saddam Hussein reviewed his troops and erected a gallows.  His ambition to conquer the Middle East; it was here that Qusay Abdullah said to hundreds of thousands of people: Every Iraqi must live a better life. Not only must we have enough food and clothing, but we must also have the power to choose.  own future!  The 35-meter-tall warrior sculpture with a base weighing 30 tons stands on the only hill in Baghdad, overlooking the entire city.  In the morning wind, Urd could see the firm and persistent expression on the martyr's face from a distance.  Urd stood there quietly, just sighing softly.  Is this weight and solemnity really something that can be shaken by personal means?  But Urd quickly shook his head and turned around and got into his car.  Only when the 9th Division and the conservative forces are severely damaged can Iraq truly get rid of all kinds of constraints and become a modern country.  He can only stand in a satisfactory position by attacking these two forces.  :mThis¡ª¡ªis there any other choice?  ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­ Palace of the Republic, the Prime Minister¡¯s Office of Iraq, Hanam Aziz walked briskly up the steps, with her secretary following closely behind her.  Her mood was a little gloomy, and even the internal affairs troop sentry guarding the door noticed the seriousness on her face, and straightened her posture more carefully.  Hanam Aziz is in a bad mood. Recently, the conflict between the conservative faction and the Ninth Division has become more and more obvious.  As the attacks occurred one after another, the actions of the Ninth Division aroused public outrage and the conservative forces gained momentum.  Their people have made strong voices on various occasions. Naturally, the people of the Ninth Division were not to be left behind, and they also jumped out to fight back.  The quarrels and curses between the two sides have not stopped. General Kusai has now gone to the front line, but he who stayed behind has turned the country into this state. It is really As he walked up the steps and was about to enter, the secretary suddenly reminded him  She: "Your Excellency Prime Minister, Your Excellency the Chairman gave you a telegram saying that he will arrive at Xijiao Airport at ten o'clock today. Do you want to pick him up?" Hanam Aziz was startled. He has been in a bad mood these days.  I never noticed the call from the front.  Her secretary Iman Tawab went back to school to defend herself, and the Prime Minister's Office arranged a new secretary for her.  She thought for a while and said: "Okay, I have something to ask the chairman for advice. You go and arrange the schedule, and we will pick him up at the airport!" She told her secretary: "If there is a meeting or other matters arranged after nine o'clock, we will  Push it away!" while speaking.  Suddenly a thought passed through Hanam Aziz's mind, and she asked casually: "Is Princess Kasina going to the airport?" The secretary was stunned and said awkwardly: "This - I don't know very well.  , I will immediately confirm the princess¡¯s itinerary with the Freedom Palace!¡± Hanam Aziz smiled lightly, stopped talking, and strode into the building. For her, as the prime minister of the government, there were things waiting for her to deal with.  There are so many things, far more than just meeting General Qusay.  She - now runs the most powerful country in the Middle East!  ¡­¡­¡­¡­ Ibrahim Watban quietlySitting in the lounge next to the highway, his bodyguards have completely controlled this small rest area.  Going east from this road is the village of Harar, and further east from there is Mandali.  The 4th Infantry Division's team will appear from that direction. As long as this force reaches Baghdad, everything will turn around and he will be invincible.  There is still a central garrison in Baghdad, and three regiments of internal troops are also stationed in the west of Baghdad. What's more, there is also a small but elite garrison in the Kamala military base.  But he doesn't care about any of this. He doesn't want to overthrow Kusai's rule, or the purpose of mobilizing this force is not here. What he wants is a guarantee, a guarantee that Kusai can stand up to the conservative faction and maintain it!  Of course, this guarantee comes at the cost of some violence. For example, before the Baghdad troops reacted or gathered enough power to stop the 4th Infantry Division, they killed some sworn elements of the old guard and most likely organized those attacks.  Ninth Division officials!  It is very difficult for the Baghdad garrison to stop the surprise attack of the 4th Infantry Division. Ibrahim has full confidence in this point.  At such an important moment, the sky has not yet completely brightened.  Ibrahim Watban stayed here.  He believed in the loyalty of the 4th Infantry Division, whose officers were almost exclusively members of the former regime.  He never understood why Qusay retained a team from the previous regime without replacing officials on a large scale. Maybe it was an oversightbut this oversight can sometimes be very dangerous!
