    I once again warn anyone not to instigate, help or support the above-mentioned rebels in any way, otherwise they will bear the consequences; I also ask all officials and other citizens to fulfill their responsibilities and do their best to bring all criminals to justice.  George Washington (September 25, 1794).  The heavily armed 4th Infantry Division has advanced to the village of Harar. Under the early morning sunshine, a large number of tanks, tanks and Iraqi-made Steyr military trucks rumbled from the east.  \At this time in 1993, because Iraq was at war, large groups of military vehicles were seen on the highway from time to time. Ordinary citizens were not surprised, and many civilian vehicles took the initiative to give way to military vehicles.  The 4th Infantry Division is the main second-line force with many people. It has 1 armored regiment and 2 infantry regiments, 1 combat aviation group (did not participate in the operation due to lack of combat readiness), 1 division engineering battalion, and 1 division.  Artillery Regiment Division (administering a 155mm self-propelled howitzer battalion, M80 multiple rocket launcher battery), 1 communications battalion, 1 anti-aircraft artillery battalion and division headquarters.  \??Although this unit is responsible for second-line combat missions, it is the mobile reserve force for the entire Eastern Front. It has realized the mechanization of the entire division and its combat effectiveness is quite strong.  Many people are puzzled that Liu Ming did not completely rebuild this unit, especially the officers of the Ninth Division who have repeatedly made suggestions for reorganization.  But Liu Ming simply split and reorganized the department, still retaining most of the old officers.  \?In his opinion, excessive purging of conservative officers was unwise, but he did not expect that this army would dare to intervene in the political disputes in Baghdad under special circumstances.  The troops of the 4th Infantry Division got off the bus in large numbers at a small town next to the highway not far from Harar Village, and the place was quickly brought under control.  The two tanks were positioned toward the public, and no passing vehicles were allowed to pass.  This high road was immediately completely cut off, and the troops quickly controlled all communication lines from Baghdad to the east.  \The residents of Harar Village watched in surprise as the heavily armed soldiers jumped out of the cars one after another.  The helmets on their heads and the bayonets on their guns gleamed in the sun, and their awe-inspiring aura made all the residents afraid to wander outside and obeyed the orders to stay at home.  Just when the soldiers of the Fourth Division began to set up fortifications around the small village, an infantry fighting vehicle drove over. The tank braked quickly and stopped by the road. The division commander Mutari jumped out of the tank.  He rushed out of the chariot and shouted angrily: "Who gave this order? Why did you stop here?" "Report to the division commander, we have received orders, the troops are here to defend on the spot and conduct powerful patrols!" A second lieutenant  Seeing the division commander appear, he immediately ran over and stood at attention to report.  "Defense on the spot? When did I give such an order? What I want is to advance towards Baghdad!" Mutari was stunned and then asked.  "Division commander, this is an order from the division subordinates! It is jointly signed by the deputy division commander and chief of staff!" the second lieutenant explained quickly.  Mutari frowned and immediately ordered the second lieutenant to take him to the temporary headquarters.  \The temporary command headquarters is located on the east side of the small village. A camouflage tent has been set up. The radio station in the field command center has been set up and the map has been hung up, creating an atmosphere like a military exercise.  Deputy Division Commander Nayef and Chief of Staff Kadi both stood in front of the map. Kadi pointed and marked on the map.  "What are you doing? Why did you order the troops to stop? The Vice Chairman is waiting for us in front." Mutari asked impatiently.  "Division Commander, isn't our operation a military exercise? The exercise regulations stipulate that when entering within 30 kilometers of Baghdad, you must seek instructions from the military region. If you violate this regulation, we will bear great responsibility. This is not a small matter.  !" Chief of Staff Cady said calmly.  "If the Chief of Staff didn't make it clear, I'll just say it! Division Commander, if you don't ask for permission to enter live ammunition, this is rebellion. Our purpose is just to protect ourselves. By petitioning General Qusay in this way, we are not trying to start any rebellion.\  So we think it is necessary to pause at this time and investigate the situation before making a decision!" Nayef said.  "You," Mutari said angrily: "The troops have already been brought here, and you are still hesitating? Now that we have done it, we have become deserters halfway. What's going on? The troops must move forward, not even for a minute.  Stop" At this point, he looked at the faces of the two people and suddenly understood.  These two people didn't ask for instructions at all, but they were scared and didn't want to take the risk!  "Commander, let's wait and see what happens!" Chief of Staff Cady said.  "Humph" Mutari snorted angrily, ignored these two people, turned around and left the headquarters.  "Deputy division commander, will there be any problem with him doing this?" Chief of Staff Kadi asked with some concern as he looked at Mutari's angry figure.  "What's the problem?" Deputy Division Commander Nayef sighed and said, "Don't he also think about all the people in the old system? OtherwiseIt was the people from the Ninth Division who pushed us too hard. Who would dare to use such a method?  \Fortunately, it can still be said to be an exercise. If it continues, it will really anger General Kusai, and things will be in trouble!  I didn¡¯t expect that I would be retiring and something like this would happen, alas" "Who can defeat General Kusai in a war?  If they really go too far, it will be their own destruction!  We can't go to the ** with this reckless man!  "Chief of Staff Cady snorted and said. "Wait a minute - wait until the scouts in front come back and see the situation!  I asked you to contact the Kalama base. Is the radio connected?  "Naif asked loudly. "Report to the deputy division commander, the nearby signal is very complicated, there seems to be interference, we are debugging!  " "Speed ??up and tell me as soon as you get connected!  " "Yes, deputy division commander!  " As soon as Mutari left the headquarters, the anger on his face immediately turned solemn. He quietly called his confidants and whispered: "Go right away!  Call my security company and tell them to load live ammunition" When he said this, his face was full of murderous intent. Nayef and Kadi could have a retreat, but as the chief officer, he could no longer retreat at this point.  At this time, only decisive measures must be taken
