Chapter 421: The fight has begun
Just when the forces of freedom and justice in the world stood behind the monarchs of the seven kingdoms of Trusil Oman and resolutely supported them in resisting the invaders, the monarchs of the seven countries happily announced in Bandar Abbas that they would accept the protection of the Ming Empire, just as they had accepted the protection of the British Empire in the past.
The forces of freedom and justice all over the world are stupid.
Nima, are you a little disciplined? What about your beliefs? How brave are you? Where is all the courage you had when you were pirates? Allah is watching!
Why don't you give us some comfort?
Of course, things can't be so simple, after all, those monarchs do not represent all the people of the Seven Kingdoms, after the monarchs of the Seven Kingdoms issued a statement at the same time to accept the protection of the Ming Dynasty, the Seven Kingdoms have rebelled to varying degrees, but since the monarchs of the Seven Kingdoms have made a decision, then these rebellions are also rebellions. Immediately afterwards, an armored brigade and two mechanized infantry brigades of the Fifth Army of the Ming Army set off from Mumbai to arrive in Trusil Oman, and an air cavalry brigade airlifted from Archie also arrived, and at the same time formally formed the Sixth Army and then helped the monarchs of the Seven Kingdoms to quell the rebellion in their respective countries as suzerain.
At this time, the Saracen folk, at most, was some World War II-level old-fashioned bolt-action rifles, which were completely vulnerable in front of the Ming army armed to the teeth, and besides, it was such a big place, with a total population of only 100,000, what could it do?
Yang Yuan's estimate of their population is a bit wrong, in fact, there is no 100,000 people there at all, and the total population of the seven countries was only 160,000 when the UAE was established in history. At this time, it is estimated that there will be 100,000 nods.
Moreover, nearly 100,000 Chinese and their families have migrated here due to oil development. These oilfield workers are all armed with weapons. They have been there for many years and are familiar with the local situation, with their spontaneous organization and cooperation, and the powerful military machinery of the Ming army, this is not a jungle and mountainous area, but nothing more than a few coastal oases, and even if the water supply point is not suppressed, those resistance elements will die of thirst if they have no water to drink.
That's the benefit of desert areas.
In short, despite the condemnation from the outside world, the Ming army was still quickly accepting control of the land.
And at the same time. After the British and French captured Port Said, they began to attack Ismailia along the canal south, while the Canaanite army quickly swept away the remnants of the Egyptian army on the Sinai Peninsula, and even captured Sharm el-Sheikh on the southern front.
Because Britain and France were under the banner of peacekeeping after all, they were embarrassed to openly cooperate with the Canaanite army, and the Canaanite army led by Dayan on the northern front was confined to the east bank of the canal, so that the British and French attacked Ismailia. Canaan is attacking the port of Suez, and Nasser is desperately requisitioning more troops to defend these two places. Anyway, he has tens of millions of people and doesn't care about casualties at all.
And the continuous supply of Soviet arms is his greatest reliance.
Because the British and French fleets blockaded the Egyptian ports, these arms were landed in the ports of Lebanon and Syria, and then transported by rail and road to the port of Najd on the Red Sea coast, and then landed in the port of Sefaj in Egypt, and then transported to the front line.
And Khrushchev can be regarded as fame and fortune this time, not only has he become the staunchest friend of Saracen countries, but even Najd, which is covered by the United States, has opened up the channel for Soviet arms, and even made him a lot of petrodollars.
However, the United States has always been indecisive and unable to decide its own position.
They want to provide arms to Saracen countries, but Aiden threatens him that if there is a new type of arms in the United States on the battlefield, then Britain will sell Anguilla to Yang Feng, or even bigger islands, anyway, they have all kinds of islands there, and they have 500 million dollars to sell Jamaica, believe it or not? Even Aiden threatened to withdraw from NATO, anyway, he joined NATO for the sake of the nuclear umbrella, but now the nuclear umbrella of the United States is not as strong as their own!
can change their position in favor of Britain and France, then they are not people inside and out, and Britain and France will not be really grateful and completely offend Saracen countries, and as a result, in the hesitation, the United States has gradually become a marginal role in this war.
Alexandria, Egypt.
"Do you think they're going to fight?"
Feng Ke, the captain of the new Deng Zilong destroyer of the Daming Navy's high seas fleet, leisurely looked at the sky in the distance with a teacup, where dozens of fighters were entangled, chasing each other, but none of them fired, but the scene was also very thrilling, and there were often two fighters passing by in close proximity.
This is the Tiger Shark carrier-based aircraft of the British Navy and the modified Yak-25 carrier-based aircraft of the Soviet Navy, in fact, similar situations have happened many times, and in order to try to block the bombing of Egypt by Britain and France without going to war, Soviet carrier-based aircraft often use similar means. Anyway, it was enough to consume fuel so that they could no longer continue their mission, and it would take time for the fighter to carry out the necessary maintenance to help the Egyptians as much as possible, and there was even a collision not long ago, when a Yak-25 collided directly with a Corsair in the sky.
And the actions of the Soviets are also establishing an image of justice in the Saracen countries.
"Beat a fart, you have to fight early, these guys just don't have the guts, they are afraid of something, so they fight, it has been delayed for almost half a month, what's the use of there every day!"
The first mate beside him said impatiently.
These unscrupulous guys have been waiting for more than ten days to see the war between Britain, France and the Soviet Union, and now they are all angry.
"Oh, you're still young, it's called the rules of the game, it's not a big deal to hit, if you hit, the nature will change, so they definitely won't fight."
Falco patted the first mate on the shoulder and said, as soon as he finished saying this, suddenly a tiger shark in the sky emitted smoke, and then rushed to the ground, and at this moment a faint explosion came, almost at the same time, two tiger sharks that were entangled with their opponents fired missiles from under their wings at the same time, and the two Jacques 25 instantly turned into fireballs in the sky.
"It's fighting, oh my God, it's fighting, it's finally fighting!"
The first mate shouted excitedly, and all the Ming troops who were waiting for this moment rushed to the deck at once, leaving only their captain standing there with a melancholy face.
Indeed, the fight finally began.
Soviet Navy carrier-based planes invited by the Egyptian government for a visit exchanged fire with British Royal Navy carrier-based planes over Alexandria, Egypt. The British fighter planes that were attacked immediately began to return fire, and eventually it turned into a melee between the two sides, and the pilot of the Yak-25 who fired first was killed, and no one knew why he opened fire.
Of course, in the legend of the Saracen people, he was enraged by the brutality of the empire and could not restrain the power of justice in his heart, and finally pulled the divine trigger.
The battle in the sky made Alexandria's Egyptian air defense forces who were preparing to resist the invaders also cheer, but they soon couldn't cheer, because it was obvious that the Britons had an overwhelming advantage in the sky, and they saw fireworks under the missiles fired by the Tiger Shark by Yak-25s, but except for the first Tiger Shark was shot down, no Tiger Shark was seen falling down.
"It's so boring, it's not interesting to fight like this."
Falco said, looking at the sky.
In the sky, a Yak-25 was being chased by a tiger shark and flew towards the Deng Zilong, and then the tiger shark behind launched a missile, although the Britons used a cooled lead sulfide seeker Thunderbolt, but because the previous Ming army pilots had been trained for many years, they were already very familiar with the tactics of using this missile, and the missile with a white trail soon arrived behind the Yak-25.
But at this moment, the Yak-25 made a very deft roll, and the missile swept almost right above its head.
Of course, it did not avoid this missile, because the latter was a radio proximity fuse, and at the moment when it flew over its body, it exploded at the nose of the aircraft, and the power of the explosion shattered the cabin glass at once, and the pilot inside was killed at that time, and the runaway plane crashed straight into Deng Zilong.
The Tiger Shark pilot behind hurriedly launched the second missile, but before the missile could hit the target, the two close defense guns on the starboard side of the Deng Zilong sprayed a long flame at the same time, and the dense 30-millimeter shells directly smashed the Yak-25 into pieces.
The Britannica's tiger shark quickly turned to prevent accidental injury.
But neither the pilot on the Tiger Shark nor the Ming army on the Deng Zilong noticed that the Thunderbolt missile that had just been launched had fallen to the shore due to the exhaustion of kinetic energy.
The air battle ended with the loss of nine Yak-25s by the Soviets and two Tiger Sharks by Britain, and the Soviets, knowing that they were invincible, quickly retreated to the aircraft carrier Ukraine.
The Britons did not pursue.
Khrushchev then ordered all Soviet troops in Eastern Europe to enter a state of combat readiness, and even the R5 nuclear missiles that had just been delivered to East Germany began to be refueled, and the latest Tu-16 bombers carrying nuclear cruise bombs also moved to Crimea, ready to attack the British and French fleets in the Mediterranean Sea at any time.
The British government was also frightened enough, including their own atomic bombs, as well as the Qing bombs lent from Yang Feng, all nuclear missiles began to be refueled, ready to wipe Moscow, St. Petersburg, Kiev, Minsk and other major Soviet cities from the face of the earth.
