Chapter 692: Attack on Congo

"Now no country can save Mobutu, who does he think he is? Is the Cold War a scene that he can mix into? As long as either the United States or the Soviet Union disappears, he will be unlucky. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info and disappear from the country, it has to be the United States. Serov arrogantly stood up and walked around the table twice, shouting, "A lesson for the third world countries, kill Mobutu, cut off the mineral reserves of the Western world, and ...... now, immediately."

"We have to understand that the DRC under Mobutu is in chaos. Hospitals are short of medicines, equipment, and basically unable to operate, and medical staff have no income and are unwilling to work. Roads in the DRC are already scarce, unmaintained, pothole-ridden and dangerous. Zaire has a well-developed water network and good conditions for the development of water transport, but in reality there is almost no water transport industry. Unemployment in the country is extremely high, even higher than it was before independence. Due to inflation, many people's real wages are only one-tenth of what they were at the time of independence. Many people are chronically hungry, and 40 per cent of the population in the capital, Kinshasa, is severely malnourished. In rural areas, agricultural yields are very pitiful, with only one percent of the land being cultivated. The whole country, just for the service of a tiny minority of elites, the lives of the majority of the people are completely unattended. Finding food for themselves has become a busy task for most Zaireans. "In this case, our support for Sudan is not aggression, but liberation, and I hope that not only our military advisory group in Sudan will understand this, but also that the Sudan People's Army will understand this and what we are fighting for." ”

"We want to liberate the world, and as a true communist, we can't be like the Socialists who only know how to compromise and forget to defend ourselves. Again, we should not underestimate the difficulty of the world revolution, as the Trotskyists did, but we should remember that we can compromise for the time being in the face of difficulties, but we must never give up the ideals in our hearts, and that a person without ideals is no different from an animal. This is not a big truth, but a truth that is related to our life and death. At this time, I would like to relax with a little drink. As he spoke, Serov opened a bottle of vodka and poured it down in a very rare gulp, the sound of which caused a stirring of eyes from the members of the KGB Presidium, who knew that their chairman rarely drank alcohol.

Bang! The empty bottle was smashed on the table by the initiator, Serov burped comfortably, and said to the other members of the KGB Presidium, "For many years, I have been waiting for our offensive plan, today is the easiest day in my ten years, the humiliation given to us by the Americans will not continue, I declare that the first step of the liberation war in southern Africa has officially begun, and it will be carried out at the same time as the liberation war in Southeast Asia, and no one can stop us." ”

"Walk with justice, sniff out and root out traitors." The unanimous resolution of the KGB Presidium was adopted by the KGB Presidium and immediately sent to the Kremlin for ruling.

"Today we will give the Americans a good one and let them know who says what the world says." After Brezhnev finished reading it, he threw the whole plan on the table and said, "Comrades, what do you think. ”

"Only in the immortal victory of communism can mankind move towards a better tomorrow. We compromise, we keep compromising, only in exchange for the Americans pressing forward step by step, and now is the time. Let them know what the future of humanity is. The chairman of the Supreme Soviet, Selepin, shouted, "I know Yura, and this is what keeps him alive." People always have ideals, and those of us who shoulder the hopes of the country live for the ideals. ”

Brezhnev, Sherepin, and Kosygin glanced at each other, and at the same time said, "Approval, the plan is ......"

The telegram was then sent to Khartoum and delivered to the Soviet military advisory group of the units of the Southern Front of the Sudan People's Army through the KGB Deputy Chairman Zinev, and on June 12, there had been a week of fine days in the border area between Sudan and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and the Sudan announced that it would hold a situation exercise in the border area with the Democratic Republic of the Congo, but Seram also met with the special envoys of the African Union and several countries, expressing the hope that the Democratic Republic of the Congo would make concessions and guarantee the rights and interests of the Sudanese-speaking peoples on the border with Sudan, otherwise the Sudanese government would face great pressure, It's not like the southern blacks in the country confess.

At two o'clock in the night of June 13, Khartoum time, the Sudan People's Army soldiers in the various military camps were assembled, and the Soviet military advisory group announced the battle plan to the division commanders, with the signatures of the Sudanese military councillors, Seram and Rahim, a series of Sudanese rulers.

At half past three o'clock in the morning, the 150,000 Sudanese People's Army (SPA) on a frontline of hundreds of kilometres between Sudan and the Democratic Republic of the Congo were informed that they were ready to fight immediately. At the same time, it will complete the liberation of the Congolese people and stop the oppression of the people by the Congolese dictatorship.

Following Seram's order, the Sudan People's Army Air Force Air Force, which had already assembled at the border, urgently took to the air and rushed straight to various airfields in the border area, which had been investigated by the Soviet KGB as early as a year ago, and the Sudan People's Army Air Force knew exactly how much anti-aircraft firepower each airfield had, how many planes had stopped, and what planes had stopped. Now these fighters and bombers that are in the air, all they need to do is let the air force in Mobutu, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, be blown up on the ground without taking off.

Although Mobutu believed that the Sultan would not dare to move, there would be no shortage of necessary means of defense, but it was already too late, and the DRC simply did not have time to evacuate the planes to the airstrip, and a large number of pilots were still asleep the whole time. Thus, the surprise attack of the Sudan People's Army Air Force was helped on the side, so that the surprise attack of the People's Army Air Force achieved almost perfect offensive results.

"This is the Third Air Force of the People's Army, and it is very smooth, and the raging fire on the ground can prove the perfection of the air attack!" Half an hour later, the dispatched SPA air force sent back gratifying news.

"In order to complete the country's strategy, all comrades of the military advisory group of the Sudan People's Army must follow the Sudan People's Army to attack, the party and the country are watching you, and we cannot let the motherland put its hopes on us in vain." Zinev, who had not slept all night in Khartoum and waited, gave a death order to the Soviet military advisory group in Sudan.

It was impossible for the Soviet military advisory group to command the Sudanese People's Army to destroy the DRC, but in the first phase of the battle to annihilate the 100,000 Congolese troops deployed by the DRC on the northern border, Zonev had to win a complete victory, so that he could return home without any scruples and not be crushed by Zvigon.

The Sudanese People's Army, under the command of the Soviet military advisory group, crossed the border between Sudan and the Democratic Republic of the Congo in the early morning, and the tanks that were the first to cross the border and take the lead in consolidating their positions were not the T54 tanks that the Soviet Union had been using, but the waterway amphibious tanks that had just ended the rainy season in Sudan.

Fighting at night is not the strong point of the SPA, it belongs to soldiers who know the local area very well, and to the benefit of the SPA, the soldiers of the DRC are only of a mediocre standard, far from being comparable to the Vietnamese guerrillas in the Vietnamese battlefield, which gives the SPA an additional boost.

"For more than a decade, Mobutu's Democratic Republic of the Congo has been on the front line against the Soviet Union, and now it is time to put an end to this farce and take Kinshasa and liberate the country. Let the people of this country live with dignity. "Lieutenant General Igor gave an encouraging message to the 150,000 Sudanese People's Army.

The mountains of military supplies that had already been piled up in the border areas were enough for the Sudan People's Army to carry out operations for half a year, and advance preparations had always been an important consideration of the Soviet strategy, and such preparations were also carried out on the borders of the Soviet Union itself. Beginning with the change of color in Sudan, the Soviet Union began to influence the new state of Sudan to make the same preparations as itself, and now the outbreak of war proves how necessary such preparations are.

This is the Sudanese People's Army under the command of the Soviet Military Advisory Group, and the Military Advisory Group is the soul of this army, and Zinev and Igor want to annihilate the heavy border troops of the Congo in the border area, gain the confidence to defeat the Congo in a big war, and cause change.

For the Soviet Union, the Democratic Republic of the Congo is one of the important mineral bases of the Western world, and it is good to occupy it, even if it cannot be occupied, it can be destroyed in retreat, and the destruction of this country will not affect the Soviet Union. With this in mind, Soviet tactics could guarantee a great deal of flexibility.

In any case, in the eyes of the Soviet Union, this was just a proxy war, and while the United States was seriously damaged in Vietnam, the Soviet Union should complete its strategy.

Dawn was always early around the equator, and an hour after the attack began, the night had dispersed and dawn had come. On the border between the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Sudan, the Sudan People's Army can be seen marching mightily, and the Congolese outposts on the border have long been uprooted, without even delaying the Sudan People's Army for a minute. The soldiers in the Democratic Republic of the Congo saw the massive attack of the Sudan People's Army (SPA) and fled immediately after a brief comparison of the numbers, which went unexpectedly smoothly.

"This is not a battle between mercenaries and government forces, but a contest between the regular armies of two countries, and from the two hours of the war, it seems that the black soldiers in the DRC are not prepared for regular war." This is a statement by a Soviet military adviser who reported to the headquarters. (To be continued.) )
