Chapter 116: What do you want to do?
More than 50,000 troops of the Philippine Army quickly lost their combat effectiveness under the blows of the Han navy and air force. Then, they were flanked by the guerrillas on both sides and completely wiped out in less than two hours.
Only a few soldiers reacted quickly and fled from the dense forest, and the rest were either killed by naval guns and warplanes or killed by the guerrillas.
The guerrillas cleaned up the battlefield and found more than 30 working armored vehicles from the wreckage, including 15 M113 tracked armored personnel carriers, 9 V-150 armored vehicles, 12 tracked armored infantry fighting vehicles, 4 155mm howitzers, 20 105mm guns, and 15 M-40106mm recoilless guns.
Well, now the guerrillas also have armored forces, and their confidence comes from the strength of their strength, and the counterattack on the Hishima government has begun.
On the other hand, the Philippine government, because of the gambling nature, sent most of the troops in its hands to suppress the bandits this time.
As long as the Philippine Army armored units can be moved, they are all dispatched, and the rest are broken and unusable armor, and Manila has almost become an unguarded capital.
The armed 8,000 guerrillas marched in armored vehicles towards Manila, fighting many battles along the way, sweeping through the local Philippine natives.
Foreign Minister Song Weibao and Secretary of State Baker agreed that Han would send two destroyers and a large group of air force pilots to participate in the Gulf War.
The fighters were naturally provided by the United States, and after the end of the war, these F-16 fighters were owned by the Han State.
Song Weigao is also full of cunning, at the request of Secretary of State Baker, Song Weigao only agreed to send out a squadron of pilots.
But Baker felt that a squadron was too little, and strongly asked Song Weigao to increase the number of pilots, on the condition that the fighters would be owned by Han after the war, and promised Song Weigao that the United States would provide ten F-16 fighters to the Han Air Force in the near future.
The people of the United States care about people rather than weapons and equipment, and in addition to the need for actual combat training, the Han Kingdom also cares about the more fighters the better.
All that remains is to prepare, and when the time comes, the Han Kingdom will set off directly from the mainland, and the two destroyers will rush to the Middle East battlefield with pilots.
The Gulf War was not borne by the United States alone, but by a joint effort with the allies.
Secretary of State Baker will continue to maneuver between Western countries to discuss the issue of sending troops to the Middle East.
Historically, in the Gulf War, the total number of multinational troops formed by the Allied forces reached 690,000 and 3,700 tanks, including 2,000 from the United States; 5,600 armored vehicles; 1,740 combat aircraft, including 59 American F-117A stealth fighters and 40 B-52 bombers; 247 battleships, 9 aircraft carriers (USS Saratoga, USS Kennedy, USS Midway, USS Roosevelt, USS Assaulter, USS American, French USS Clemenceau, USS Foch and USS Ark Royal) in England
So, Secretary of State Baker will be busy for some time to come.
Of course, as the new younger brother, Han's posture was very much in line with Hua Songton's appetite, and it played an exemplary role in the Gulf War.
Yin Lak invaded Kuwait, the United States announced its intervention, the situation in the Middle East suddenly became tense, and the eyes of the whole world were focused on the Gulf.
While the Han State was attracted by the tension in the Middle East by the eyes of the world, it quickly dispatched naval and air forces to destroy the main military forces of the Southern Barbarians and the Philippine Island States in one fell swoop on August 2 and August 3.
The Han bombing of hostile countries has been going on for a long time, and there is not much attention paid to this bombing, everyone is used to it, so naturally it will not be too abrupt.
Compared with the situation in the Gulf, this movement of the Han Kingdom seems to be a little small.
Now that the strategic goal has been achieved, the Navy and Air Force have all been withdrawn, and all that remains is how to deal with the aftermath.
The soldiers are noble and fast, and the military operations of the Han State will never drag mud and water.
It's not that I don't want to continue fighting, but I don't want to make too much noise to attract the attention of countries around the world.
It has to be said that Hao Han, the emperor of the Han State, was very cunning and used the Gulf Incident to cover up the conspiracy of the Han State.
A high-level meeting of the Han State is underway, and the Emperor of the Han State, Commander-in-Chief Hao Han, will make arrangements for future actions.
"The naval and air force's bombing of the Southern Barbarian and Feidao countries was very successful, and Xu Liqiang's Northern Fleet and Xin Jingbo's Eastern Fleet successfully completed their tasks.
In addition, after this operation, it also fully demonstrates the ability of Xu Liqiang and Xin Jingbo, and the Northern Fleet and the Eastern Fleet can become an army. ”
As soon as Hao Han finished speaking, Xu Liqiang and Xin Jingbo's faces showed happy expressions, and it seemed that they were really going to form a new fleet.
"Xu Liqiang."
"Here, please instruct the commander."
"Order you to be the commander of the Northern Fleet with the rank of rear admiral from now on."
"Yes, thank you Commander for your cultivation."
Xu Liqiang was excited, and hurriedly saluted and thanked him.
"Xin Jingbo."
"Here, please instruct the commander."
"Order you to assume the post of commander of the Eastern Fleet with the rank of rear admiral from now on."
"Yes, thank you Commander for your cultivation."
Nima, from the lieutenant colonel to the major general all at once, can you not be excited?
Xin Jingbo finished the military salute to the commander, and after sitting down, his heart was still pounding.
"At present, two fleets are temporarily formed, and old warships are still used. Of course, the fleet of the Han Kingdom will soon become stronger. At this point, the Han state's large-scale military operations against Nanban and Philippine Island also came to an end, at least during the Gulf War, and the Han state did not want to take larger military actions against the outside world. ”
Xu Liqiang and Xin Jingbo, who had just been appointed as the commanders of the fleet, were stunned, and thought that the formation of the fleet was to continue to carry out strikes against Nanban and Philippine Island.
Xin Jingbo looked at Xu Liqiang beside him, this guy didn't seem to want to ask, so he suggested to the commander: "Commander, now that both the Southern Barbarian Kingdom and the Philippine Island Country are vulnerable, why not take this opportunity to destroy them?" ”
"Yes, Commander, send troops to destroy these monkeys."
“......”
One person began, and the others followed suit, suggesting that the Han State should destroy these two countries with the power of destroying the ancient and decaying.
"Guys, don't make things too simple.
The current world environment is peaceful, not World War I or World War II, is it so easy to destroy a country with a closed mouth?
The people of the United States are very strong, and they do not dare to annex a country casually. They are also afraid that world public opinion will be drowned out, and they have not withdrawn their troops after the Gulf War. ”
"This ...... Is that the end of it? ”
"Of course it won't end like this, what I just said was the end of a large-scale military operation, but I didn't say that other operations would not be carried out, just a change in method.
Lao Wang, how is the progress of the training of government agency personnel over there, and is it possible to send personnel out? ”
"Commander, this is the beginning of the third phase of training, and there are already two rounds of trainees who have become qualified government workers. What, what did the commander command? ”
"Very good, select a group of staff to enter Nanban, supplement Zhang Shigang's People's Front, and set up local government agencies."
"Ah......h
Everyone who was doing it was stunned by Hao Han's decision.
What is this for?
He actually sent the government staff of the Han State to the Southern Barbarian Kingdom, what kind of calculation did the commander make?
