On the road, more than a dozen Merkava 3 tanks formed a straight line and slowly headed south. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It's a bustling highway, but no cars are in sight anymore, and since the frequent troop movements on both sides, almost all ordinary Israelis south of the Israeli line have fled and retreated to safer cities in the north.

It was a tank company, the vanguard, that was rushing towards a small town south of Timna to search for the enemy there.

There are Israeli troops sitting on the tanks, and a few of them are still chatting, and they are not worried about encountering the enemy, if the enemy appears, it will be discovered by satellites and reconnaissance aircraft in the sky, and the command will alert them as soon as possible.

All they had to do now was recharge their batteries and wait for the enemy to start fighting.

"There's a jungle ahead, be careful." The commander was still cautious, got out of the cockpit and alerted his soldiers over the walkie-talkie.

They have already penetrated deep into the enemy area, and now the movements of the Afghan army are unknown, if they happen to bump into the large force of the Afghan army, then they will die quickly.

As soon as the commander finished speaking, five white shadows suddenly appeared on both sides of the road, behind the treetops, as if they had come out of thin air, startling the commander.

"It's a helicopter!"

"Damn, how could it not be found, too close, fast, electronic jamming, ready for battle."

Panic cries rang out, and the tanks at the front had raised their batteries and the electronic countermeasures system was activated.

The latest model of the Merkava-3 tank is equipped with an electronic countermeasure system developed by the United States, which can destroy the opponent's electronic system and can be used to counter the tank, but the effect of countering the helicopter may not be satisfactory.

The Israeli soldiers sitting on the tanks hurriedly jumped out of their tanks and scattered on both sides of the road, they were the ground cover units of the tank company, and the strength they could exert in this kind of armored combat was too weak.

At the same time, there were several soldiers hiding behind tanks carrying shoulder-fired guided missiles.

The military quality of the Israeli soldiers is absolutely excellent, and although they suddenly encounter the enemy, they react quickly and do not appear flustered.

Soon, several missiles were dragging white tail smoke into the air.

"Laser countermeasures, evasion." High in the air, the squadron leader of the helicopter squadron was also very calm and did not show any panic.

You have a good plan, I have a wall ladder, the missile is laser-guided, and naturally it can also be countered by electronic equipment, destroying the missile's guidance system, and making the missile lose its accuracy.

Several missiles flew straight past the helicopter and all missed.

At this time, the tanks below also experimented with the surname of the gun, but the accuracy was tantamount to using a machine gun to strafe a fighter flying at a low altitude, and it was not a little worse.

In the ultra-low-altitude range, the helicopter has an excellent maneuverability, with the speed of the tank's gun, the speed of the turret's rotation, not to mention the hit, even to keep up with the helicopter, locking the helicopter is also a big problem. Not to mention, Abyej's Harrier helicopter has the world's most powerful maneuverable surname.

At this time, it was not as effective as the machine gun fire on the tank.

Helicopters are known as tank killers, but they are not empty words.

Five helicopters launched an attack formation, one rushed to the front, quickly swept over the ground at an ultra-low altitude, the helicopter cannon ** burst into flames, the hard asphalt road ground in the ** of 20 mm cannon bullets, as fragile as tofu, two barrages spread towards the rear of the tank group, sparks flew, and several Israeli soldiers who could not dodge were submerged and turned into a mass of meat.

The remaining four helicopters have been deployed laterally, each locking on to a tank, and the anti-tank missiles have been fired out with tail flames.

At such a close distance, there was really not much time left for the Israeli army to react, and they obviously saw the flying anti-tank missiles, but they did not have enough time to adjust the shape of the tank.

More than a dozen tanks were blocked on the road, unable to advance or retreat, and turned into a pile of live targets.

"Quick, spread out, spread out! Signal Corps, contact command, we were attacked by enemy helicopters in the D912 area, requested air support. The commander shouted loudly, and in the face of such embarrassment, calling for reinforcements seemed to be the only thing he could do.

……

The Southern Command of the Israeli Army naturally received a request for support from this tank company as soon as possible, but the officers in charge of the command also knew that even if they sent support troops now, they might not be able to save this tank unit.

Crashing into a helicopter unit without warning, this tank company was not ordinarily unlucky.

Fortunately, this tank company is a vanguard search force, not far from their rear, is the 366th Armored Brigade as a decoy, with more than a dozen escort helicopters, received an order from the command, quickly dispatched, rushed to the enemy site to support.

"Met an enemy helicopter attack here?" Holsen walked to the front of the military map and fixed his eyes on the D912 area, which is a sesame area, and it is not a strategic location.

Howson now thinks about one thing, whether this encounter with the enemy was accidental or something, whether it happened to meet Abyeha's patrol force, or collided with Abyejha's main armored force, these helicopters are just escort troops.

If it is the latter, Abyeha's main armored force has advanced to this area, then the distance between the two sides is very close, because on the map, not far from the north of the D912 area where the enemy is encountered, is the 366th Brigade that lures the enemy, and at the same time, on the flank of the 366th Brigade, is the huge main force of the Israeli army.

Did the two sides happen to bump into each other without knowing it?

Holson's mind was overpowered, startled by his own speculation. Although Holson's purpose is also to find the enemy's main force and fight a decisive battle, it is by no means this kind of unwitting collision, and without any foreknowledge, it will only turn into a melee.

"Quickly, adjust satellites, radars, AWACS, and send drones to search the entire area." Holson quickly gave the order, and for a while his heart was mixed.

Although Holsen knew that the strategy of finding the main force of the other side for a decisive battle was correct, but when the decisive battle was really about to be fought, Holsen was worried again, the two sides were heavily armed, and Israel was even more devoted to its national strength, once it failed, then he Holsen was the sinner of the Jewish nation.

You can only win, not lose!

Howson secretly clenched his fists, his eyes locked on the military map, that small area, is a piece of paradise that the Jews have found for thousands of years.

Similarly, Mutafa, who was already in the front line of Abyeh's headquarters and was in charge of the Red Sea Fleet, was the first to learn of the encounter with the Israeli tank unit.

Now that both sides are looking for each other, such a chance encounter is not a coincidence.

Mutafa was keenly aware that he might have found the main force of the Israeli army.

The satellite adjusts the torque and direction at the first time and searches the entire area.

Unmanned aerial vehicles, airborne early warning aircraft, radar systems, and various means of surveillance have been fully activated.

In this regard, Abyeh already has only one military satellite for the time being, while Israel, with the United States' military satellites all over outer space, naturally has a certain advantage.

However, in the near-earth range, as the creator of the Sky Eye Radar, Abye undoubtedly has an advantage.

This trade-off has made the two sides almost at the same level in terms of intelligence surveillance.

Therefore, under this purposeful search, the two sides can be said to have discovered each other's main forces at the same time.

In the room like a black light, the two warriors touched each other, their hands slammed together, and the next moment, it was a thunderous strike, a battle of life and death.

Now the situation of Abyeh and Israel is very similar.

Armageddon, gathering momentum.

"Attack!"

The command of both sides, Mutafa and Holson, gave the order for a general offensive almost simultaneously.

The staff officers below have already taken action, one command command after another, one by one, the command at all levels have been pulled, faithfully carrying out the orders, like a war machine, and now the brain has given instructions, and every part of the body has acted, according to the established trajectory and instructions, sending out the strongest attack.

……

The whole of Israel, the northwest has a Mediterranean climate, while the central and southeastern parts of Israel have a tropical desert climate, plus the whole of southern Israel, the terrain is flat, with little vegetation, like many countries in the Middle East, it is a typical dry desert plain.

Such a geomorphological feature is undoubtedly extremely suitable for the charge and Armageddon of armored troops.

Artillery fire roared, and a large number of covering units, such as self-propelled howitzers, self-propelled artillery units, had already begun to fire at the target area, carrying out fire to cover it.

A large number of helicopters also set sail, actively looking for the opposing side's advancing tank troops, with the goal of depleting the opponent's strength and slowing down the opponent's march before the decisive battle.

Around the entire D912 area, an area with a radius of several tens of kilometers is a battlefield.

The Israeli army's 2,000 tanks, thousands of self-propelled guns, and howitzers were pulled up almost without reservation.

On the Abyeji side, there are also close to 1,500 tanks and hundreds of self-propelled guns, which are in this area.

With such an astonishing scale, it will be a war of the century, and if you look at it from a high altitude, an area of tens of kilometers is almost all armored troops marching at high speed.

Unlike in the past, the armored forces have excellent mobile surnames, even if they are artillery, now they are all self-propelled, and the mobile surnames are extremely high.

This makes the war more and more inclined to blitzkrieg, from the discovery of the enemy, to artillery strikes, fire cover, air support, re-contact, and fighting, the time before and after is not like a word.

From the time the supreme commanders of both sides gave the order for a general attack, that is, within an hour, the tank units of both sides braved each other's artillery fire and helicopter attacks and met.

In the open field, as far as the eye can see, there is a yellowish earth, and the tanks on both sides are the brown yellow of the desert, and it is almost impossible to distinguish on the horizon under the scorching sun.

But there is no need to distinguish it, from the sight of the tank drivers on both sides, on the horizon, the black pressure is full of tanks, dense, and there are countless at all.

The two sides were only a few kilometers apart, and the battle line was more than a dozen kilometers apart, and a total of more than 3,000 tanks were facing each other in this narrow strip of land, launching a charge.

The whole ground seemed to shake, and the Lion tank, which had a better fire control system, opened fire first.

At a glance, hundreds of tanks were moving, and almost at the same time, the battery shook backwards, and in the smoke of gunpowder, countless shells pierced the sky, like arrows that covered the sky, and flew out.

The decisive battle was completely launched.
