The screeching sound of jet aero engines came from the sky, and the attacking British and French mercenaries and Rwandan government troops were directly stunned and stupid by the scene in the sky, dozens of A-10 attack planes flew over the battlefield with a roar, and air-to-ground missiles rushed towards the main battle tanks.

The warhead of a US-made laser-guided missile weighing nearly 300 kilograms weighs 136 kilograms, and with the thickness of the armor of the 100-man captain's main battle tank, the turret is basically reimbursed for one missile fired next to each other.

The A-10 attack aircraft is mainly equipped with four AGM-65 Maverick air-to-surface missiles, as well as a 30 mm GAU-8 seven-barreled Gatling gun, which is specially designed to combat armored units.

More than 400 main battle tanks were blown up by the paratrooper brigade, about one-tenth of them were blown up, but the 48 A-10 attack planes in the air were reimbursed 70 percent of the total amount in one round, and the main battle tanks were like open beer bottles, constantly emitting black smoke and flames, and half of the main battle tanks were killed by ammunition on the spot, and the tankmen inside were left with no bones.

"Inform the remaining tanks, immediately cover the evacuation of the large forces from the battlefield, and we immediately withdraw to the camp to defend, fortunately, these two paratrooper brigades were also disabled by us, and this ambush battle is not without gains!" When General Blaise saw the scene in front of him, he was distressed and was about to cry, this is the reserve tank of the British Army!

"Paralyzed, this is the B-1B strategic bomber coming, and the troops hurriedly lie down to dodge!" A piercing whistling sound came, and the commanders of the British and French mercenaries were dumbfounded at the sight of it, and quickly ordered the troops to hide on the spot.

Each B-1B strategic bomber can carry 48 227-kilogram joint direct attack munitions, and 12 are more than 120 tons of munitions, which can be dropped in a few minutes, and the entire battlefield is turned upside down, and the ground has been turned over again, and there is not an inch of intact land.

But seeing that the main battle tanks weighing dozens of tons were overturned by bombs, the corpses were blown into the sky, and the battlefield became a huge beehive, with large pits more than one person deep everywhere.

"Nima, there's still an end, is it okay to give a way to live?" Finally, the strategic bombers flew away, and the remaining 6,000 or so people hurriedly got up and evacuated the battlefield under the orders of the officers, but unfortunately, not only were there paratrooper tanks chasing behind, but the Longbow Apache gunship group arrived again, and what was worse was that the road ahead seemed to have been blocked by the opponent.

The Apache helicopter gunship has a 30 mm single-barreled chain cannon with a maximum rate of fire of 1,000 rounds per minute, and two external hardpoints on each side of the short wings, each of which can hang a 19-pack Sea Basilisk 70mm rocket launcher, that is, a helicopter can fire 76 70mm rockets, and the two gunship attack battalions in front of them have 48 Apaches!

"It's over, our plan has completely failed, the mercenary corps really deserves to be the world's largest mercenary organization, the overseas corps of the U.S. government, and it is too dominant in terms of weapons and equipment!" Looking at the soldiers who were killed and blown away by the rockets everywhere, General Blaise clenched his fists in pain, his fingernails piercing his palms.

Forty-eight Longbow Apache helicopter gunships, chasing a group of deserters, shot all the shells, fired all the rockets, and then flew away from the scene. Immediately afterwards, the assault brigade of the 1st Air Assault Division of the Afrika Korps launched a massive artillery bombardment.

The brigade was armed with 36 American-made 155-mm howitzers, 12 81-mm mortars, 16 60-mm mortars, and 36 Browning heavy machine guns.

Moreover, occupying the commanding heights of the road, it is still in a state of waiting for work, the artillery has long been adjusted to the angle, and as soon as it enters the firing range, the overwhelming shells are smashed down, and the striking power of the two howitzer battalions is not doubted.

This road is like the road to hell, people are constantly being blown up, people are constantly being killed, there are still quite a few snipers in the assault brigade, and a salvo is the disappearance of a platoon. By the time the coalition forces stumbled back to the barracks, many people were lying on the ground on the spot, and it was a big fate to be alive!

"The price of underestimating the opponent means death, and now the armies of those European countries should reassess the Afrika Korps, this is not a cannon fodder force, but an elite army trained by mercenaries!" The chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the US military gloated.

"In fact, I should have thought about this a long time ago, the mercenaries have always regarded Africa as their own territory of influence, how can they put a rabble in the backyard to watch the gate? Such a situation seems to be a good thing for the United States, and the greater their casualties, the less we have to worry about the bullshit European Common Defense Circle! Said the Minister of Defense.

The two paratrooper brigades of the 2nd Airborne Division of the Afrika Korps numbered more than 6,000 people in total, and in the end less than 3,000 remained, half of whom were wounded. More than 20 howitzers and a large amount of ammunition were lost, more than a dozen Humvees equipped with the Avenger air defense missile system, more than 100 paratrooper fighting vehicles and more than 30 Humvees were destroyed.

The combined forces of British and French mercenaries, Rwandan government forces, and the Congolese rebels totaled more than 20,000 people, and in the end less than 4,000 people were able to escape back to the camps, all the heavy equipment was lost, more than 400 main battle tanks were not spared, and hundreds of transport trucks, off-road vehicles, and pickup trucks were also blown up.

The reason why the two paratrooper brigades of the Second Airborne Division suffered much fewer losses than their opponents was that they used tactics properly, not only seizing the commanding heights, but also digging rudimentary tunnels, and the paratroopers carried folding sapper shovels, which belonged to the original German goods, and could be used as weapons when necessary, especially under the protection of paratrooper fighting vehicles, and the brutal training in peacetime played a vital role at this time, and the cooperation of officers and soldiers was far more tacit than that of the opponent.

In addition, the defense was originally cheaper than the offensive, and there was the support of multiple rounds of fighters and bombers, and finally the armed helicopters and assault brigades swept the tail, in such a situation, it was a matter of course that they were not completely annihilated.

The reason why the coalition forces suffered such heavy casualties was entirely because the resistance of the paratroopers was too stubborn, dragging them with their lives, and delaying the most precious time, resulting in the coalition forces being attacked by air raids and returning home in a crushing defeat.

First, the propeller fighter-bomber destroyed the transport vehicle and could not maneuver, then the A-10 attack aircraft disabled the tank unit, then the B-1B strategic bomber saturation bombing, then the AH-64 Longbow Apache helicopter gunship chased all the way, and finally there was an assault brigade to set up an ambush circle on the road, so that even the US military could not withstand it.
