Chapter 197: Strategic Transport Forces
readx;
The Sinai Peninsula, which can be said to be the dividing line between Asia and Africa, is a triangular peninsula bordered by the Gulf of Suez and the Suez Canal to the west, the Gulf of Aqaba and the Negev Desert to the east, the Mediterranean Sea to the north, and the Red Sea to the south. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoIt is located at the northeastern tip of Egypt and is connected to the Israel and Gaza corridors to the east. In 1967, it was occupied by Israeli forces, after which Sadat released an olive branch and Israel returned it to Egypt in 1982 under the 1979 peace treaty for greater maneuver.
Now the entire Sinai Peninsula is in the hands of the Egyptian army.
Israel is a long and narrow country, and after peace talks with Egypt, Israel will not have to fall into the crisis of fighting on two fronts again. Their main defense was the Arab garrison in the Golan Heights.
As for Iraq, if the Sinai Peninsula is obtained, then it can be attacked from both sides, attacking the Jews, and Israel must be destroyed.
Although Qusay doesn't know what Mubarak thinks, since the other party is so confident, of course he has to put forward his own conditions.
Sinai! This is a piece of military powerhouse!
"Are we going to declare war on Israel?" Hearing Qusay's words, Omar asked.
Qusay shook his head: "We are not yet in time to declare war on Israel. ”
What does Qusay's words mean when he said that he would send troops to rescue his Arab brothers and not declare war on them?
"We're there to keep the peace." "It is the territory of our Arab brothers, it is the territory of the State of Palestine, and we are sending our troops to help maintain the situation in the State of Palestine, which is a just act of peacekeeping," Qusay said. Of course, if our peacekeeping operations are sabotaged, we will resolutely retaliate. ”
Qusay's words are simple, but the meaning is very clear.
No matter what the action is, there must first be a reason to declare righteousness, and Qusay's current reason is still very sufficient.
In the various resolutions of the United Nations, the Gaza Strip, which is all Palestinian territory, where the Israelis are carrying out all kinds of military operations, that is, brutal aggression. Moreover, if they attack the peacekeepers again, it will be even more unforgivable!
"So, what do we need to do in Egypt? Do you want us to send troops? We are in the Sinai Peninsula, with a garrison of 30,000 troops. Mubarak said.
Israel returned the Sinai Peninsula, however, in the agreement, it was stipulated that the Egyptian garrison in the Sinai Peninsula should not exceed 30,000 people.
"Egypt needs to provide the air bases on the Sinai Peninsula to us and allow our troops to enter, and for the rest, Egypt just needs to strictly prevent the Israelis from attacking and hold the Sinai Peninsula." Qusay said.
Fighting side by side with the Egyptian army, Qusay still didn't quite believe in their fighting power, and they could just be strong on the sidelines. The Israelis have always been very bold and have to be careful not to stage another surprise attack on the Sinai Peninsula.
…………
The situation in the Golan Heights suddenly became tense.
The armies of the Arab countries stationed here began to prepare for a round of exercises, all the armored units left the station, and the Iraqi air force also entered the air bases in Syria and Jordan.
I was already observing the actions of Iraq, and now it seems that Iraq is finally going to act, and the Arabs are finally going to act!
This time, this is definitely not a normal exercise, will they rush down the Golan Heights and attack Israel itself in the course of this exercise?
Judging by what Kusey has done in the past, there is a good chance that they will do it.
The Israeli side is fully prepared, they have transferred the main armored forces to the Golan Heights to garrison, if the Iraqis dare to take the initiative to provoke a war, then they need to take this opportunity to fight to the Golan Heights! Last time, because of their own mistakes, they lost the Golan Heights, which is a pain in their hearts, and this time, they will definitely not make the same mistake!
At this time, the First Armored Division of the Seventh Army of the United States had already arrived in Israel in advance, and the Americans were guarding the rear for them.
Since the south has already reached a peace agreement with Egypt, they don't have to worry about the southern problem, and the central part is garrisoned by Americans who can rush to the aid at any time, so they can concentrate their forces to deal with the problem in the north.
The armored forces of the main forces of Israel, which began to move to the north, did not know that their rear had been emptied.
………
"Plop puff!" Marwan patted the dirt on his body, and when he came out of the tunnel, he saw the sun overhead, and he felt that it was better to be on the ground.
As a Rattlesnake special forces, they have received many trainings, in the sky, on the ground, and even at sea, on all kinds of vehicles, but, for the first time, they have come out of the ground.
They were the first Iraqi soldiers to arrive in Gaza, and they came here on the mission of liberating their compatriots!
Now, the Jewish army is in Gaza, destroying the armed forces of Hamas, while the fighting is taking the lives of their innocent Palestinians.
At such times, on the orders of the great President Qusay, they are finally moving again, and they will drive the Israelis here!
In the tunnel, members of the Rattlesnake special forces came out one by one.
The inside of the tunnel is not easy to walk, although the electric lights have been installed inside, and it is relatively spacious, and the special equipment they carry can be brought over, but those mottled side walls tell them that this place may collapse at any time.
Israeli patrols along the border line often carry out some violent ground shaking, and the soil here is loose, and it is easy to dig holes, but also face landslides at any time.
While smuggling goods in this way, many Arabs were buried alive by the sudden landslide.
As a result of the Israeli blockade, millions of fellow Arabs in Gaza are being supplied in this hole, and this is what the abominable Jews have done!
With the dispatch of the Rattlesnake special forces, Iraq finally began to operate again, and their operation this time was a large-scale military operation re-planned by the Iraqi military at the suggestion of President Qusay, the operation code name, Gaza Peace.
Large-scale military operations in the north were only to contain and attract the attention of the Israeli army, so that the attention of the Americans and Israelis was all concentrated in the north.
In this situation, the south suddenly emptied, and even the warplanes of the Israeli Air Force reduced their operations in the Gaza Strip and handed over more operations to support the infantry and handed over to the helicopter gunships.
Israel's armored forces also began a large-scale transfer. They don't know that Iraq's real plan is the Gaza Strip!
Since it does not have a direct border with Jordan and Saudi Arabia, Israel did not anticipate Iraq's true intentions.
The Gaza Strip was originally the territory of the State of Palestine! The actions of the Israelis there are a brutal invasion of the State of Palestine and an act to be strongly condemned! Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Egypt and other countries will never allow this to continue to happen!
For this operation, Iraq mobilized three armored divisions, a mechanized infantry division, as well as marines.
Among them, the 35th Armored Division and the Marine Corps, which will be the main military forces entering the Gaza Strip, are fully confident that they can complete the task of expelling the Israeli army.
The other 1st Armored Division, 10th Armored Division, and 47th Infantry Division are all reserves, and they are deployed on the Jordanian side, ready to deal with unexpected events at any time, for example, if Israel wants to continue to expand the situation, then, together with the two Saudi armored divisions, they will threaten Israel's flank, ready to attack the southern part of Israel at any time, and at the same time, the Golan Heights in the north will also turn from exercises to real feints.
However, Iraq has tried its best to restrain the scale of the war, and this time it is still a quick solution, and before Israel and the United States can react, it will fully occupy the Gaza Strip and form a fait accompli, and at the same time, strive for international public opinion.
Qusay could not hesitate any longer, because the blood of the Palestinians is being shed in vain, and they are being bullied by the Israelis!
Iraq's war machine, tempered by the Iran-Iraq war, has become strong enough that they are confident and capable of winning a modern war!
Standing on the shoreline of Shermai, a small border town on the west coast of Saudi Arabia, Ali felt the sea breeze blowing on the Red Sea, and they spent five days by road from their Iraqi station.
The time spent avoiding the flight of American satellites in the sky did not leave them long to maneuver, but they loaded all their equipment on large trailers, disguised themselves as container trucks, and relied on domestically produced Mercedes-Benz tractors to maneuver on Saudi roads, and, far from the Israeli area, were not detected by anyone.
However, how to get to the Sinai Peninsula was a difficult problem, and they needed to reach the Duhail area covertly. Without passing through the Israeli region, they can only go by sea.
The U.S. ** team is already the first in the world, but the transportation of the first armored division of the Seventh Army has already cost a lot of money, and some civilian ships have been rented.
Now Iraq, with more than 40 IL-76 transport planes, has added three An-124 transport planes, if these transport planes are used to transport, only those main battle tanks, infantry fighting vehicles and other equipment, it will take more than a dozen sorties, and when they arrive in the Sinai Peninsula, a mouse above knows that the Arab reinforcements are coming!
And ordinary ships, again, are too slow. This time, however, they used a new means of transport.
In the distance, a loud roar was heard, and Ali's heart felt relieved, their transport finally came! (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to register as a member to recommend this work, your support is my biggest motivation. )
