Chapter 1162 1162 I really want to use the countdown to the end as a title
West Bank, May 1965.
The Israeli army is ready to go.
The Israeli army's combat goal is very simple, that is, to lay down the Arabs before they do themselves. For the sake of secrecy, the Israeli army did not even inform the Alliance of Human Renewal of its military plan of action, and the Israelis deliberately avoided the eyes of the Alliance for Human Renewal in terms of war preparations, probably because they were worried that the Alliance would stop.
However, Lin Youde still clearly grasped Israel's movements, but Lin Youde did not stop Israel from launching a war, but only mentioned to Sharon very euphemistically: Be careful of the landing war launched by the Americans from the Red Sea.
As a result, the Israelis have deployed multiple shore-based anti-ship missile launch positions on the Red Sea side of the Sinai Peninsula, and it looks like they are intending to use this new weapon and their own air force to fend off the U.S. Navy fleet.
In another time and space, the Israelis still used force against Jordan and Syria when the United States and the Soviet Union opposed their own actions, and completely defeated the Arab army before the intervention of the two superpowers to end the war. At this time and space, Lin Youde estimated that the Israelis would still be brutal under international pressure, so Lin Youde did not do useless work, and deployed the army to prepare for the aftermath.
Now that Lin Youde is preparing to build the Babylon Ladder, the Suez Canal has suddenly become important, and the US military has put a military base between the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean.
Therefore, it is in Lin Youde's interest to let the Israelis fight a dozen and expand a little.
Israel didn't know what Lin Youde was doing in the skies over Southeast Asia, so they didn't think about it, they were still worried that Lin Youde would come forward to stop them, so they desperately accelerated the pace of preparations.
On June 22, 1965, Israeli Defense Minister Sharon gave the order to attack.
Israeli warplanes then attacked airports in Syria, Jordan and Egypt simultaneously, and Israeli warplanes bombed using new anti-runway weapons and scattered a large number of small explosives on the runways of Arab airfields.
The runway is repaired quite quickly, and as long as the blown up pit is filled with earthwork, you can take off the plane directly. Therefore, the anti-runway weapon does not aim to blow up the runway, but mainly through the deployment of explosives on the runway to complete the task of blocking the enemy's runway.
Most of the explosives use timed detonation fuses, so the airfield attacked by anti-runway weapons will continue to explode, almost every few tens of minutes on the runway will explode, very annoying. You can't rush to clean up these things, because there are small mines with conventional fuses mixed in, and the plane will not even want to fly until the sappers have removed all these things.
The Arabs didn't know what was going on with this weapon at first, so they were ready to dispatch planes that survived the bombing to counterattack Israel after the bombing, but the first two Super Sabres that took off were directly blown over on the runway.
However, in order to avoid the wreckage, each airport has hapless super sabres rushing out of the runway.
The Arabs realized what Israel had done to their runway, and they hurriedly dispatched sappers to clear the mines and level the runway. The Arab sappers had been busy all night, and the runway repair had just made some progress, and the Israeli planes were throwing anti-runway weapons again.
In the first two days of air strikes, the Israeli Air Force successfully knocked the air power of Egypt and Syria to the ground in an instant, while the gap between the Jordanian Air Force and Israel is a bit large, so the Israeli Air Force did not allocate too much strength to support the military operation against Jordan.
However, the ground forces of the Israeli army are still making rapid progress, and Jordan is a small country, and it was directly penetrated by Israel's blitzkrieg, and at noon on the second day of the war, the Israeli chariot had already driven into the streets of the Jordanian capital, and the Jordanian king fled to Saudi Arabia to seek refuge.
Then the Israeli army turned around and went straight to Syria.
Although the Syrian army lost the air cover as soon as it came up, they still relied on the fortifications and geographical advantages of the Golan Heights to desperately resist the Israeli attack, but under the bombardment of cloudburst bombs and napalm, the Golan Heights quickly turned into a scorched earth, and Syrian soldiers were burned to death everywhere.
On the night of the third day, the Israeli army completely took control of the Golan Heights and the Syrian territory north and east of the heights.
At this time, Egypt's troops were still gathering -- according to the mutual defense agreement between Egypt, Syria, and Jordan, if any of these three countries is attacked, the other two must help each other, and those who can directly send troops will be sent directly, and those who cannot be directly sent will "take an offensive in the other direction to contain the common enemy", and this common enemy is undoubtedly Israel.
But the Israelis attacked so fast that Jordan lost its combat effectiveness in three days, and Syria also lost two elite brigades in the Golan Heights, and the Egyptians had not yet assembled their troops at this time!
The Israelites demonstrated by their actions what it means to be a soldier and a god of speed.
The Egyptians finally launched a hasty attack on the fourth day of the war, encountering the Egyptian army, which had just crossed the river, and the Israeli army, which had just moved from the northern Syrian front, and the two sides engaged in an armored duel in the desert and arid hills of the Sinai Peninsula.
The result was obvious: the Israeli armoured forces had a great advantage in training and equipment, and the Egyptian army was beaten to the ground, although the Egyptians had a slight advantage in numbers, but they were still too much for the Israelis to take care of themselves.
At this time, the Americans also reacted, and the US military sent a destroyer formation led by an artillery cruiser to the Red Sea as quickly as possible, cruising along the Red Sea coast of the Sinai Peninsula to put pressure on Israel.
But the Americans did not expect that the Israelis would be so bold as to dare to fire at the US Navy. On the morning of June 27, 1965, Israel fired four Styx anti-ship missiles at the United States destroyer fleet from its own shore-based anti-ship missile positions.
One Keeling-class destroyer was hit by a massive explosion and completely disintegrated to a part-part state, while the other Keeling-class was damaged, and then the U.S. Navy's Indian Ocean Fleet Command ordered the U.S. ships to temporarily retreat beyond the Israeli shore-based missile fire.
Subsequently, the Americans accused Israel of taking the initiative to fire on the US fleet, which was a provocation against the United States, and the US Secretary of State angrily claimed that the United States would not hesitate to go to war with Israel.
The Alliance for Human Renewal responded by raising the Allied Army's combat readiness level, recalling officers on leave, and starting the ICBM depot for pre-refueling checks – meaning that the missiles would be ready for launch within forty-eight hours if necessary.
At this moment, the international situation instantly became tense, and the world was once again on the brink of nuclear war.
By this time, however, most people had realized that a nuclear war would not produce a winner.
Nuclear deterrence is really just a game, and no one is going to actually launch a nuclear weapon.
This time, Lin Youde won, mainly because he has a huge spacecraft of unknown purpose in space, and Charlotte is worried that there is really a mid-course anti-missile system on it.
So Charlotte ordered the American fleet to withdraw from the Red Sea. Of course, it was impossible for Lin Youde not to respond to the meaning completely, so Lin Youde also put pressure on Sharon to force him to withdraw the Israeli troops that were advancing towards Cairo to the east bank of the Suez Canal.
One step on both sides, you give me a face, I will give you a face, the so-called victory or defeat just means that Lin Youde has taken advantage of it this time.
