Chapter 660： Syria declares war

This time, Turkey used more than 20,000 troops to start a siege on the periphery of the city of Diyarbakir.

Tanks drove towards the city, behind the tanks, the accompanying infantry followed one after another. Compared with the rabble Kurdish armed forces, the Turkish army is the lion force that has been tested by war!

The Kurdish-armed T-55 tanks are all used as fixed forts and ambushed on the streets. Originally, although this tank is outdated, it can still stop the Turks' army. Unfortunately, the Kurdish tankers are quite unfamiliar and often constructed ingeniously. In the enemy's position, the first shells fired could not hit the opponent, and then the opponent's tanks would fight back with more violent artillery fire!

And in street fighting, tanks are not omnipotent. The Kurds faced the attack of the Turks and burst out with the greatest fighting enthusiasm. They are familiar with the city. They can get to the side of the Turks at any time, and then use RPG to strike. The side of the opponent's tank.

Tanks were destroyed in the attack, and a famous soldier fell in a pool of blood. Street fighting, a meat grinder-like battle, ruthlessly devoured the lives of soldiers on both sides.

Although costly, the Turks are advancing! After several days of street fighting, they finally suppressed the Kurdish armed forces in a quarter of the urban area, and the Kurds could hardly fly!

Elgin breathed a sigh of relief. Although the casualties on his side were a bit large, since he was able to successfully surround the main Kurds, eliminating them once and for all is also a good result!

At this point, the NATO meeting was over, and Efren returned to Turkey. This meeting was noisy but fruitless. Although the United States tried its best to mediate, the two sides did not reach any agreement in the end!

Evren knows that Greece has not given up at all, and they are still dreaming of regaining northern Cyprus! Therefore, Turkey must eliminate the domestic rebellion as soon as possible, so as not to give the Greeks a chance! The Greeks are slapping the Americans in the face now, but if the battle in Cyprus continues to drag on, the Greeks will definitely take risks!

Efren continued to mobilize new troops and put them into the battle of Diyarbakir! Trying to end the entire battle in the shortest possible time.

However, he did not expect that the nightmare had just begun!

In November 1981, the weather in the Middle East also began to turn cooler, and the situation in Turkey was in violent turmoil.

Just on the 3rd of this month, the Syrian government in southern Turkey, President Hafez-Assad, the lion in the Middle East, issued a strong statement strongly condemning the GAP project of the Turkish government! Up to now, the Turkish government has continued to promote this project without repentance, and has also reached a cooperation agreement with the British government! This act of disregarding the water safety of downstream countries and only caring about their own interests is a declaration of war for downstream countries! The Syrian government will never watch this happen! Syria decides to declare war on Turkey! Protect your water source upstream!

In history, there have been many wars because of the problem of water sources. This time, because Turkey maliciously built water conservancy projects in the upper reaches of the two rivers, regardless of the life and death of the downstream countries, Syria declared war on Turkey! Almost at the same time, under the siege of the United States, the crumbling Baghdari, Iraqi President Qusay also issued a tough statement and declared war on Turkey at the same time! Moreover, a battalion of troops was dispatched to attack together with the Syrian army!

In history, the local conflict known as the hydropower war between the two rivers finally broke out.

Syria, the shame to bear in the next generation is too much! After the death of the old Assad, the young Assad succeeded to the throne. There were various elders who blocked the reform, and various extremist organizations continued to emerge with the support of the West. As a result, the domestic political situation in Syria was unstable, and the north appeared. The extremist organization IS, and finally, Turkey also used the pretext of fighting IS, blatantly intimidating the territory of Syria.

Those are the afterlife, and now, Syria is still a powerful country!

Under the old President Assad, Syria is one of the most powerful countries in the Middle East! They have hundreds of thousands of troops! Have first-class Soviet weapons! Moreover, in several conflicts with Israel, the Syrian army was not at a disadvantage!

Now, the Syrian army is ready for a long time. In order to eliminate the domestic rebellion, the Turkish government has continuously deployed guard troops on the border line. The border line is very empty!

Therefore, it is time for Syria to strike at this time!

The Armored Special Forces Division of the Syrian Republican Guard took the lead in kicking open the door of Turkey! The latest T-72 tanks are heading towards the northern part of Turkey!

In fact, Syria has taken a sigh of relief since Turkey unknowingly announced the GAP project! At the same time, the Soviet government gave the greatest support, including the full replacement of new weapons for the Syrian army, such as the army, the most elite armored division, and the latest T-72 tanks!

This is not the kind of monkey model exported in history! This is the same as the one exported to Iraq. It is completely the model used by the Soviet Union, including advanced armor-piercing bullets, etc. This tank is enough to challenge the advanced American tanks, not to mention the M60 of the Turkish army!

The Syrian Air Force has also replaced the most advanced MiG-29 fighter jets! It is comparable to Turkey's latest F-16 fighter!

In the Middle East, which country has the best military? Not Iraq, but Syria! Now, with the full support of the Soviet Union, Syria, which has been equipped with a large number of advanced weapons, is full of confidence and a powerful torrent of rolling armor is advancing towards the north!

Turkey's border troops fled without firing a shot!

The Syrian army is divided into three routes. The east is attacking from Qamishli to the north, the middle route is from Kara to the north, and the south route is from Aleppo to the north.

In just one day, the army from the middle route rushed to the large Turkish border city of Sanleurfa, and the city, which was empty of troops, surrendered without much resistance after seeing the powerful armored forces in Syria!

To the west of Sanleurfa is the slowly flowing Euphrates! This hydropower war in Syria is quite justified!

At the same time, in Sanleurfa, Syria also has a windfall, a lot of logistical baggage, food and ammunition for the Americans!
