Chapter 1029: The Soviet Union that bullies the soft and fears the hard

This night was destined to be uneasy, not as comfortable as the fairy tale of the Arab Nights that was popular all over the world. From late at night, the troops took turns to eat. The Soviet Union's logistics was still incomparable to the United States, and of course there was no such high requirements as the US military. The sound of the lunch box became the main theme of this time. The Soviet Union's combat readiness in peaceful times was the best in the world, but this combat readiness was also incomparable to real wars.

Under the high-intensity battle of a day, the troops that could not withstand the fatigue in their hearts began to take turns to rest. The soldiers in the war could control their thinking and ignore death, but could not let the fatigue of their bodies disappear. The sound of gunfire from afar became an embellishment on the Arab night. The selected Red Flag Turkestan Military Region troops were alert in the night. Night combat may bring chaos. Generally, commanders will not choose to attack in the dark, but this possibility also exists and must be guarded.

Due to the time difference, Moscow is relatively late and the Kremlin is still lively. Selov is receiving discussions with the military, including Marshal Gorshkov, the commander of the Red Navy.

During the day, after issuing an emergency evacuation order document, Selov established a shadow government in the Soviet Union, establishing the worst result, that is, after Selov was bombed into gas by a nuclear bomb, the list was not announced. However, there was no member of the Central Committee of the Soviet Union in this term, and there was only one task for this group of old men. If they stayed in Moscow, they would either accompany Selov to take the risk successfully or accompany Selov to die.

People in the shadow government have received news, and Lukashenko and Nazarbayev have received news that once Moscow is hit by a nuclear strike, the two will retreat from the arranged channels to lead the Soviet Union.

"According to the photos of the spy satellite, the location of the Royal Navy's formation is the easiest place for us to start." Selov took a set of photos to Marshal Gorshkov, and then said, "One thing must be admitted. I have a certain respect for the United States, especially their nuclear weapons."

Of course, no one objected to this kind of frankness. No one would want to talk to the weak. However, it is legitimate to bully the weak and fear the strong. The big spy is also thick-skinned. The fleet of the British Royal Navy is of course far away in the Arabian Sea in southern Iran, and is actually the back of the US Navy.

Of course there is a reason for this situation. Although Britain and the United States always wear pairs of pants, they are not a country after all. The US Navy is a heavy aircraft carrier battle group. If the British light aircraft carrier and the US Navy are mixed together, it will affect the combat effectiveness of the US Navy. The British Royal Navy is more of aiding the US Navy.

So in this case, the British Royal Navy actually did not participate much in this Persian Gulf War. Of course, the First Division of the British Army was considered to be a participant.

"If the Red Navy comes out of the Red Sea, it will hit the US Navy in the Arabian Sea, isn't it more dangerous?" General Chebrikov expressed his concerns, so the US Navy would not think that the Soviet Red Navy was coming for the British.

"Ocean confrontation is too dangerous, so the Red Navy cannot take action this time." Selov smiled and was not interested in the plan to cause trouble to the Americans on the ocean. Of course, it is possible to fight head-on, as long as it is on land and air confrontation, but it must be within the combat radius of the Soviet Union. In short, it must be an area where the Soviet Union has a clear advantage. The Red Navy can unilaterally defeat the US Navy, which only exists in Marshal Gorshkov's dream.

With the existence of the US Navy, although the Soviet Red Navy had long been able to beat the British, Marshal Gorshkov also understood this. As soon as Selov said that he could not let the Red Navy go, he immediately interfered, "Naval Aviation Bombership?"

"Only air force can run away if it fights. If the Red Navy is dispatched and won, it will be chased by the Americans, and it may not be able to run away!" Shelov looked desperate, what should I do when facing the US Navy? If I can't fight, I can only find an opponent who is not as strong as the Soviet Union, such as the United Kingdom.

About three-fifths of the Soviet counterfire bombers belonged to the Air Force, and two-fifths of the power belonged to the Red Navy, used to fight against the US aircraft carrier battle group. Currently, there are two naval bombers, about one hundred and forty Tu-22m3 counterfire bombers belonged to the Soviet Red Navy. The British Ark Royal was normally far enough to hide, granite, and the US aircraft carrier battle group topped in front, but for the Tu-22m3 counterfire bombers, this is not far enough.

"This raid can give Americans a better memory. It is not used on the US Navy. It is already the greatest sincerity of the Soviet Union." Selov picked up the ashtray that had been filled with a long time ago and turned it over and said, "Is it difficult to implement it?"

"After General Baglamyan's total start, I will order the 37th Air Force to be dispatched." Marshal Gorshkov put on his hat and prepared to return to the Ministry of Defense to formulate a combat plan.

The next morning, General Bagramiyan, who was not disturbed by the sound of scattered guns and cannons, answered the phone call from Kvashnin, the commander of the Sixth Tank Army of the Red Flag, and ordered in a calm tone, "We are only forty kilometers away from Kuwait City. I will give you eight hours to break through them. The North Caucasus Military Region troops will fight in a roundabout way to attack the troops of Saudi Arabia, Oman and other countries."

"It should be no problem!" Lieutenant General Kvashning did not look down on the US military. According to the Warsaw Pact joint combat plan, a Western cluster of 500,000 people would be bombarded by 7,000 NATO aircraft and defeated the US heavy-armed Seventh Army and the Fifth Army within two days. Now there are 600,000 Soviet troops here, and the opponent has only one Fifth Army. The defense line established by the opponent is incomparable to decades of operation in Federal Germany, and the difficulties faced are much smaller than those of the Western cluster.

Lieutenant General Kvashning, who put down the phone, adjusted his troop configuration. There were too few 200 artillery pieces per kilometer, and there should be 280. There were also a little fewer tanks. They had to be pressed at the beginning. Anyway, there was General Baglamyan's main force behind them. The shelling of Zhou Ran marked the beginning of the Soviet army's general attack.

"They have too many tanks, and a tank army has so many tanks." Lieutenant General Franks said worriedly after learning about the air reconnaissance. He knew that the Soviet army's attack had begun, or the type that was pressed on the entire line.

The subsequent report of the staff confirmed Lieutenant General Franks' concerns. The endless army of tanks, with the unique sound of tracks of tanks, attacked the positions of the Seventh Army, and the classic Soviet deep raid reappeared.

"We are immersed in fighting small countries with high-tech weapons, pursuing a low-injury war model, and finally met an opponent that cannot be chewed! Today we paid the price. General Schwartzkopf. If our Seventh Army cannot stop the Soviets, I suggest that the troops that besiege Kuwait immediately retreat immediately, and those troops will be even more dangerous." After saying these words to Schwartzkopf, Lieutenant General Franks hung up the phone and ordered, "We are heavy troops and perform our duties."

The troops of the Sixth Tank Army of the Red Flag rushed over, like an endless stream of iron. A large number of t80u tanks lined up in neat formations under the cover of armed helicopters, rushing straight to the defense line of the Americans' heavy-armed Seventh Army. The artillery shells of the Red Army's long-range artillery landed accurately on the enemy's positions, providing cover for the tank troops' assault.

Thousands of cannons suddenly roared like roars like mountains and seas, and fiery red trajectories instantly covered the sky, and countless shells ran across the sky towards the opposite position. The violent explosions continued, and the earth and the sky seemed to tremble under this unparalleled power.

Under the cover of violent artillery bombardment by artillery and under the attack of air force, the units of the Seventh Army, as heavy troops, were not afraid of any armed helicopters, and the Abrams tanks were not bad at all. The two sides were killed in a group, which was a hand-to-hand battle between muzzles and muzzles. In the air, the Apache armed helicopter and the female deer armed helicopter were like two bee swarms fighting, and armed helicopters were constantly hit and exploded in the air.

"Franks, how many armed helicopters do you US military have? How many tanks do you have?" Lieutenant General Kvashnin was unmoved by the damaged data now. War should have been fought like this.

Moreover, in the high-level battles, the brighter US Air Force and the Soviet Air Force are not inferior at all, but because of the quantitative relationship, the effect of ground combat cannot be reflected. Lieutenant General Franks was gradually sinking in the face of this situation, and air supremacy could not be seized. The armed helicopter group was entangled by opponents with the dominant number, and the air defense force of the Soviet ground forces far exceeded that of the US military. The most important thing is that there are too many tanks in the Soviet Union. Among the entire Persian Gulf, only the Seventh Army is a heavy-armed unit.

"In terms of the voyage of our Tu-22m3 counterfire bomber, there is no problem rushing to the Arabian Sea from here!" The commander of the 37th Air Force held up a telescope and watched one counterfire bomber after another accelerate, and finally rushed into the blue sky until he disappeared from sight. In the major airports of Uzbek, groups of counterfire bombers rushed into the sky.

Among some air force bases in southern Afghanistan, Soviet pilots flew Soviet-made fighters from the Afghan Air Force to escort the air strike. The KH55 cruise missile under the belly of the backfire bomber has a long range, which makes the backfire bomber launch without appearing at sea.

There is no problem with the British Royal Navy 800 kilometers away. On the Midway aircraft carrier, Captain Richard Cooper, with a telegram from the country, ordered, "Inform all ships to start an air defense system, and focus on detecting the northeast direction."

The USS Kennedy, Roosevelt, the United States and other US heavy aircraft carrier battle groups were all on alert. Suddenly, a large number of far-distance points marked by the enemy's attack appeared on the radar, which made all US commanders who received the warning tighten their hearts.
