Chapter 671: Artillery Preparation
McKinson stood in the command center of the US military in Stuttgart, Germany, his face was pale. The communications officer reported with trepidation the situation of the ground offensive on the front.
The former chief of staff of the European armed forces stationed in Europe has returned to China to report on his work, and what awaits him will be a leisurely retirement. But in the Middle East, the US military continues to fight. Or rather, they are still preparing for the next battle.
When McKinson left Europe, he left a mess for his successor; Now that McKinson is back in Europe, he faces the same mess.
Perhaps, this is the reincarnation of fate! The admiral sighed secretly and comforted himself for a while before he could calm down and listen carefully to the battlefield report.
“…… Therefore, the General Staff unanimously believes that we are not capable of launching a new offensive without sufficient artillery support, General. The communications officer saluted and left, leaving McKinson alone in front of the battlefield in a daze.
"When did the United States get to where it is now?" The admiral raised his gaze and roamed back and forth across the Turkish border. "The surviving ground forces have returned to their starting positions located in Turkey. In addition, it is necessary to be prepared for cross-border attacks from the other side at any time. ”
"Why did that Arab whammy, when he had declared his intention to occupy Turkish territory, stay so honestly on the other side of the border?"
"For the time being, it is impossible to organize air strikes, and the ground can only take a defensive position," McKinson mused......: "The United States' most powerful global strike capability is contained by air and space fighters, and if it wants to achieve a breakthrough, it can only rely on relatively primitive artillery...... Is this a deliberate rule of the game set by the Arabs? ”
"Judging from the scientific and technological capabilities of the United States......" Admiral's eyes instantly lit up: "Extended-range rockets or artillery-launched missiles have the ability to be equipped with nuclear warheads!" The United States also has the ability to miniaturize nuclear warheads, so ...... Why not? ”
"Until enough artillery is replenished, what the United States needs most is time! And small-yield tactical nuclear weapons are the only means that can buy time for the US military to be ready for war! ”
Unlike China, the United States has never committed to not being the first to use nuclear weapons. Therefore, whether it was the Korean War, the Vietnam War, or the successful development of the first atomic bomb in China, the United States planned a nuclear attack on the enemy. Now that we are facing such a dilemma, as long as we do not use large-yield campaign-class nuclear bombs, I believe that the consequences will still be within the scope of the United States.
As for what the rest of the world thinks, that's their business. Proud America, which is not responsible to anyone but itself!
And in the US military bases in Germany, there happened to be the presence of such tactical nuclear bombs. All that is needed now is the means to project it.
Despite the defeat, the United States' strong military technology is still enough to deliver these tactical nuclear bombs to the places they want to destroy.
For example, artillery missiles mixed with ordinary artillery shells, such as special rockets mixed with ordinary rockets, and cruise missiles flying at ultra-low altitudes and skimming the ground.
At present, the air defense of the Arab Divine Alliance has been weakened to a great extent, and it cannot completely prevent the attack of cruise missiles. Therefore, even if only one nuclear warhead is detonated in the desert of the Middle East, whether or not it can cause casualties to the other side, it will certainly be able to deal a severe blow to the will of the Arabs to resist, and at the same time greatly boost the combat morale of the US military, and show the world that the United States will never give up its tough attitude!
Politically and militarily, the United States needs this shot in the arm.
After much thought, the admiral finally made up his mind and immediately reached for the phone.
"Pick me up at the White House, right now! Right away! ”
…………
In the Kremlin, the usually strong president is smiling at his old partner, the prime minister of the Russian government:
"The Tianfeng Group is still asking for a sky-high price, and according to the latest news, it seems that they do not want to sell their current rocket artillery to the Americans. Look, can we pit this bald eagle? ”
The bald eagle is the symbol of the United States, while the symbol of Russia is the double-headed eagle that represents Europe and Asia.
Although the world prefers to call it a polar bear.
"The U.S. is not as foolish as the Indians." The Russian Prime Minister poured himself a glass of vodka and, by the way, handed the president a glass:
"Now that Russia's economic environment is not very good, and it is subject to economic sanctions from Europe, it is the time when blood transfusion is most needed. But apart from oil and gas, the only thing we can get our hands on is some advanced weapons. Like what...... Long-range rocket artillery? ”
"But since Soviet times, we have been at odds with the United States! So, even if it is necessary to supply weapons to the United States, there should be certain conditions attached! The president raised his glass and made no secret of the smile on his face:
"For example: lifting economic sanctions against Russia from Europe and the United States, building oil and gas pipelines to Germany, and so on."
The Prime Minister took a sip of wine, and while savoring the wonderful aroma, he smiled dumbly:
"The United States will probably say yes! Because they have fallen into the swamp of war, and they are scorching over, raising ground support firepower everywhere. Since the Chinese are still hesitating, let the great Slavic nation extend a hand of friendship and help Uncle Sam! ”
"It's just the price...... How much do you think is appropriate? They're not Indians! ”
In the face of the president's inquiry, the prime minister smiled slightly:
"The whole world will quickly feel the deliciousness of authentic Russian vodka!"
Russia and Turkey have already experienced more than a dozen wars, large and small, and the relationship between the two sides is not as good as imagined -- Turkey needs Russia's abundant oil and gas supply, Russia needs to export oil and gas to maintain its domestic economy, and a simple supply and demand relationship is necessary to maintain the two sides together.
However, because of its unique geographical location, the Bosphorus Strait under Turkish control guards the lifeline of the Russian Black Sea Fleet. As soon as Turkey declares the closure of the straits, or is in a state of hostility with Russia, the Russian Black Sea Fleet will immediately lose its only access to the sea, and will become a bathtub navy that the enemy can attack at will, a turtle in an urn with nowhere to escape.
Therefore, Russia has always been struggling with the right to pass through the straits.
Now's your chance. Turkey joined NATO, thinking that by clinging to the thigh of the United States, it would be able to restore the glory of the Ottoman Empire. Who knew that even the U.S. military kicked the iron plate, was beaten by the Arabs and cried wolf, and there was a possibility of crossing the border and "reclaiming" the territory "belonging to the Allah" in the hands of Turkey...... How can Russia sit idly by and watch such a good opportunity?
If you can take the opportunity to control the Bosphorus...... Wow Ka will wake up laughing when you sleep!
It is precisely for this reason that polar bears, which covet the territory of the Middle East, do not mind helping the Americans who are currently vulnerable. Of course, you can make a little money by the way, so why not do it?
Anyway, the more unlucky the United States is, the happier the Russians will be-
Not even a Taoist friend, who will you do if you don't do it?
…………
Ah San is really happy.
The Arabs across the wall are fighting to the death with the United States, but the focus of the Indians has always been on the "cosmic logistics" represented by the chairman of the carrot head.
Cosmic logistics, circulating all over the world. Now even this corporate slogan has become the pride of India.
If it weren't for our India's space logistics, would the Arab sons be able to compete with the U.S. military?
If it weren't for the cosmic logistics that soaked in the Ganges River, how could the Muslims be the opponents of the American GIs?
If it weren't for the oil that smeared with us, how could the Arabs swell America's face?
If it weren't for our Indian ......
The people of the South Asian subcontinent are constantly cheering and proud of the victory of the Arab Divine Alliance, that is, the cosmic logistics, against the backdrop of the swollen pig-like United States. It seems that I never thought about it, once the bald eagle is angry and wants to kill people, can the Indian elephant continue to stand strong, and dare to be arrogant?
Anyway, even the chairman's genealogy has been dug up, and it has been proved that the universe can only be an Indian enterprise, but people don't want to publicize it in a low-key manner, so who else on the earth dares to break hands with us?
Believe it or not, Lao Tzu's air and space fighters blew you up?
However, in the situation of a few happy families, a few sorrowful families, and a few self-indulgent families, the Huaxia government acted as if nothing had happened, in addition to calling on both sides of the war to exercise restraint, that is, asking the United Nations to carry out emergency mediation, and even Liu Yun personally promised that "if necessary, you can ask Han Feng to go to the Middle East again", as if no one knew that Liu Shuai almost sold rocket artillery to the United States.
As a result, when Mr. Liu finally woke up after making up for sleep, he got the news that the United States had signed a letter of intent to purchase long-range rocket artillery from Russia......
Seeing that the milk powder money is gone, it is no wonder that Mr. Liu's mood can get better.
As a result, various verbal charms were issued, most of which were wishing the United States and Russia a miscarriage of business. Hearing this, the pregnant woman Zeng Qian around her was worried, for fear that her husband would continue to talk about it, which would affect her future daughter's prenatal education.
Compared with Liu Shuai, Han Feng is much easier.
Originally, I didn't really want to sell rockets to the United States to kill and injure my own believers; Now that there are Russians in the top tank, it is naturally better. Otherwise, with the glorious identity of the crazy brother "peace fighter", but he made a lot of war money, wouldn't this smear the image of the radiant Korean style?
What's more, the crazy brother has always prided himself on being a good person, not only with a noble character, but also eager for justice and righteousness, how could he do such a thing that is not conducive to world peace? Even if he really sells rocket artillery to the United States, it must be the responsibility of Liu Shuai, the general manager of the financial fan, and it has absolutely nothing to do with the loyal and upright Chairman Han!
Because the crazy brother has lost far more than a dime......
"Hit! Tell Agade to give Lao Tzu a hard beating -- who told the Americans not to buy Lao Tzu's goods! ”
Han Dong was very angry, and the consequences were serious.
