Since it has been proved that the "results" of the British bombing are fake, it means that the victory just won by the British army is no longer there, and it can even be said that the British army was ruthlessly played by Argentina.

This was nothing if Britain was strong in the past, victory and defeat were a common thing in soldiers, but now is the time when Britain is in decline, especially when Britain wants to recover from this war or can also recall the past scenery, but there is a disadvantageous scene.

So this was a certain psychological blow to the British army, and the British troops around me, including Clapp, did not have the excitement just now, but instead had a face full of disappointment.

"Colonel!" Brigadier General Clapp brought me a cup of coffee as I was stunned: "The news is indeed frustrating, but fortunately we have an expert with experience in guerrilla warfare, which allows us to see through the Argentine plot in time." Otherwise, this will undoubtedly bring us unpredictable losses in this war! ”

"Losses may not be necessary!" I took a sip of my coffee and replied, "It's just that Argentina will use this to secretly deliver supplies to Port Stanley Airport!" ”

"Yes!" Clapp nodded: "But this is also an indirect loss for the British army, because it will replenish the supply of the Argentine army on the Falklands." ”

After a pause, Clapp sighed again: "This also shows that our bombing is ineffective, but the results achieved by our air force are almost negligible!" ”

Of course, I have no objection to this, considering that eleven tankers, two bombers, and nine Harrier fighters were used in the bombing of the British.

However, the eleven tankers only played the role of auxiliary operations, and the nine Harriers could play a very limited role because of their small bomb load...... This is the biggest disadvantage of the Harrier pose. Each Harrier has a bomb load of only 3,000 kg. And a Vulcan bomber has a bomb load of 9500 kg.

That is, the bombing capacity of both Vulcan bombers exceeded the bombing capacity of six Harriers. So there is no doubt that the main force of bombing is still the Vulcan bomber.

On the other hand, the long supply lines made it impossible for the British to send a large number of Vulcan bombers to bomb the Falklands.

"So!" Brigadier General Clapp frowned and said, "We have to think of a new plan!" ”

Hearing this, I couldn't help but ask Clapp with some surprise: "Are you still planning to bomb Port Stanley Airport?" ”

"Why not?" Clapp asked rhetorically, "Doesn't the Colonel think...... Will Port Stanley Airport pose a big threat to us if it is widened to accommodate jet fighters? ”

This is indeed true, and it should have been done by the Argentine side from the beginning.

OK......

I smiled and shook my head: "I don't think Argentina will widen this airport!" ”

"Why?" Brigadier General Clapp asked, somewhat surprised, "In fact, they have already done it!" ”

"That's what I did before!" I said, "But I'm sure they've given up now, otherwise they wouldn't have had to pretend the runway was bombed!" ”

"Is there a connection between the two?" Clapp thought about it and asked suspiciously: "The Argentines are just trying to deceive us by pretending that the airport runway was bombed!" But that doesn't mean they won't widen the airport. ”

"Of course there is a connection!" I said, "But it has to be based on the fact that we didn't see through the conspiracy!" ”

"But ......," Clapp became, the more confused he became, "in fact, we've seen through the plot!" ”

"Let's put it this way!" I smiled and said, "The Argentines don't know we've seen through their plots, do they?" ”

Clapp nodded: "I don't think they will realize this until we bomb the Port Stanley airport next time!" ”

"That's right!" I said, "Since the Argentines are going to hide it from us." So what does it mean if they plan to lengthen the runway even if the key parts of the runway are blown up? ”

"WOO......" Clapp couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, then stood up excitedly and said: "Wait, this means that the Argentine conspiracy will be exposed by itself, and their conspiracy will become meaningless!" ”

"That's right!" I said: "I think the Argentines had a very simple idea, they did want to lengthen the runway so that the Port Stanley airport could be used for jet take-offs and landings, but at the same time they knew that the British army would not give up bombing the airport, which would probably make the work of the airport useless forever, after all, they did not know the plight of the British bombers!" ”

"So!" Brigadier General Clapp replied: "The Argentines are actually preparing for both. If we don't bomb the airfield, they continue to widen it. If we bomb, then they give up, and at the same time use camouflage to confuse us and make us believe that the Port Stanley airfield is no longer usable and stop bombing! ”

"Yes!" I said, "It's very easy to solve this matter, as long as you pretend not to see through the Argentine's plot, then the Argentines will continue to pretend like this, so that at least Port Stanley airport can secretly take off and land transport planes." And if you continue to bomb the airport, it will make the Argentines realize that they can't fit it anymore, and they may be free to widen the airport.

So, if you don't want the Argentines to widen the airport, just pretend you don't know and don't need to do anything! ”

"Wow!" Brigadier General Clapp couldn't help but praise when he heard this: "Colonel, we are still planning another bombing of Port Stanley Airport!" Your mention not only saved us a lot of resources, but also made it easy for us to achieve our strategic goals. I have to say, you're amazing! ”

With that, Clapp turned to the phone, apparently to report to the Air Force or other generals about the matter.

Looking at Brigadier General Clapp's back, I couldn't help but smile bitterly...... Talking to the British is troublesome, and if you discuss it with the Chinese, such as Commander Zhang, it is actually four words: "Count the count".

It didn't take long for Clapp to turn back with a red face: "Colonel, they have already agreed with my construction and praised this construction yì, and they were very surprised when they heard that this construction yì came from you. I have to say that this is very important for our fleet and even for this war! ”

Clapp is not wrong about this, you must know that the bombing of Port Stanley Airport is actually a matter of injuring 500 enemies and 1,000 to the British army...... Just like Clapp said before, the air force spent a lot of energy and resources, especially for every two bombers flying here, eleven tankers were needed to assist in refueling, which was fatal for the British army with supply difficulties for a long time.

Now, the British army can easily achieve its goal without doing anything.

From this point of view, it can be said that the Argentine side has once again lost the opportunity to win this war.

If I were an Argentine soldier, not only would I not be clever enough to camouflage at Stanley Airport, but I would have widened all three airports on the Falklands.

Obviously, this was fatal for the British army.

If the British army did not bomb it, it would be faced with a large number of Argentine fighters stationed on the Falklands, and no matter how powerful the British Harrier fighters were, they were only more than 20 planes, and they could not fight more than 100 Argentine fighters. (The Argentine Air Force committed a total of 170 fighters throughout the Falklands War)

The fundamental reason why Argentine fighters have an absolute superiority in numbers but are still unable to seize air supremacy in the end is that Argentina's old fighters have a short flight range, and they can only fight for four or five minutes when they take off from the mainland and reach the waters near the Falklands.

However, if Arima Island Airport takes off and lands, the situation is completely different, more than 100 fighters against more than 20 Harriers of the British army, tired from the fight in turns, and the British pilots will be exhausted to death. And once Argentina seized air supremacy, then the whole war would be completely reversed.

It was precisely because the British army was aware of this that the first thing they hit was the largest airport on the Falklands, that is, Port Stanley Airport.

But if you choose to bomb the Falklands airport in a large area......

Victory would be even more within reach for Argentina, because they didn't even need to send in an air force at all, or only a small number of air forces.

Soon there will be a cycle on the Falklands: the British bomb, the Afghan army repairs, the British army bombs again, and the Afghan army repairs again......

It doesn't take much effort to build the airport in Afghanistan, and it can even be pretended to decorate the airport, while the British army has to spend a lot of resources to bomb the airport. Needless to say, the British soon had to stop bombing because of logistical weakness.

Even the Afghan army can send a small number of elite fighters to sneak attack the British bombers.

You must know that every two bombers of the British army need eleven tankers to refuel them on the way to make a smooth return trip, and if even one of these tanker planes is destroyed by the Afghan army, then the British bombers will be finished.

The Argentine side can do this, because Argentina also has a "May 25" aircraft carrier that can carry 18 fighters, and it is undoubtedly the best choice to use it to conduct a guerrilla war at sea, that is, to avoid the main fleet of the British army and turn to attack the long supply lines of the British army.

But it is a pity that Argentina did not do this, and later military experts commented on this war: in a war, the opponent is in trouble with supplies and the side does not take advantage of this to strike, which is almost inconceivable.

Therefore, the Argentine side actually had many opportunities to win the initiative on the battlefield in this battle, but they missed it again and again, so that they finally had to surrender to the collapse of the Zì regime, which can only be said to be their own lack of intelligence or experience.
