It should be said that Dayan's ability level is still a line higher than that of Salon and others, and Sharon is too fond of showmanship, and sometimes even ignores the overall situation for this. For example, during www.biquge.info the October War, this product made mistakes. Of course, it is still too far to say this, because now neither Sharon nor Dayan is a person who can decide and change the situation of the battle, at this time Dayan is only a regiment commander, and Sharon is a small company commander.

As mentioned earlier, after the sudden outbreak of war, Dayan's troops performed well, withstanding the attack of the Egyptian army almost head-on, and they were relatively calm. Not only did Dayan's troops perform well, but generally speaking, the vast majority of the IDF troops quickly reacted correctly and resisted the Egyptian offensive, with the exception of a small number of new recruits, who were a little flustered at the beginning of the surprise attack.

By the 12th hour after the outbreak of the fighting, the Egyptians' all-out offensive had almost collapsed. This situation makes Aden a little entangled again, what are you struggling with? Naturally, it is a matter of overall strategy. As mentioned earlier, the Jews were undecided whether to defend or attack. Until the outbreak of the war, there was not a definite conclusion.

It stands to reason that when the IDF on the front line resists the attack of the Egyptian army, the choice should be simple, and it can be based on defense!

No, it's not that simple at all. For when the Jews saw that the Egyptian army's long-planned offensive turned out to be tickling, their minds could not help but come alive. Since these scum are such a vegetable, why not just fight a war of annihilation and teach them an unforgettable lesson? If the main force of the Egyptian army can be annihilated in a war, then at least it can guarantee that the Egyptians will not be able to blow up the assassins for at least five to ten years, right? Then there would be fewer important threats to Israel's periphery.

The military is eager to try, but Ben-Gurion can't just think about military issues, not political issues? There is no big question of annihilating the Egyptian army, but the Americans will promise? If the United States intervenes, the problem is a bit more complicated, after all, Israel still does not want to make too much of a stalemate with the United States.

And according to the opinion of the Soviet military advisers, it is still difficult to fight a war of annihilation now, because the Egyptian army on the front line is too dense, and most of them are gathered in a group, which is not conducive to division and encirclement, and if you want to fight a war of annihilation, either the Jews have to concentrate a large number of armored troops to kill a bloody road, although the Egyptians are more vegetable, but after all, it is not dough, and such interspersed actions are too risky. If you can't open a bloody road, then you have to find a way to let Egypt take the initiative to disperse, how to do it? It was the Jews who took the initiative to retreat, making room to widen the distance between the Egyptian troops, and to put it bluntly, luring the enemy deeper.

As mentioned earlier, the main forces of the Egyptian army are piled up on the front line, and there is still pressure on Israel's defensive line, and the most dangerous situation on the battlefield is to retreat under the pressure of the enemy.

Of course, this is not what Ben-Gurion is most worried about, he is more worried about the interference of international hooligans, how to say? Once the IDF begins to retreat and lure the enemy deeper, it will inevitably give up a considerable area of occupation, and if the international hooligans intervene forcefully at this time, taking advantage of the Security Council to adopt an armistice resolution, it will be quite detrimental to Israel. After all, the truce is divided by the Line of Actual Control, because if Israel lures the enemy into depth, Israel will definitely suffer a big loss on the Line of Actual Control, which is too unrealistic.

To prevent this, Israel would have to do the work of an international hooligan, and Ben-Gurion would have to convince the Soviet Union to help vote a veto on the UN Security Council and veto all ceasefire resolutions that would be unfavorable to Israel. Otherwise, don't even think about luring the enemy into the depths.

There may be comrades who want to say, isn't the relationship between Israel and the USSR not bad? It wasn't that hard to convince the USSR, was it?

Hehe, international politics is not so simple, for the Soviet Union, friendship with Israel is profitable, or mutually beneficial, when the interests of both sides are the same, it is easy to say anything, and if the interests of the two sides are not completely aligned, then it is necessary to think more.

For the Soviet Union, it is not impossible to help vote against it, but it is necessary to calculate the benefits and gains. Helping Israel will definitely offend the United States, although the Soviet Union is not afraid of offending the United States, but what good is it for the Soviet Union to pull hatred in vain? Israel always wants to let the Soviet Union see some benefits, where is the motivation to get without benefits?

There may be comrades who want to ask, what benefits do you want in the Soviet Union? What the Soviet Union wanted was simple, that is, to let Israel play the role of MT, to fully mock and pull hatred, to firmly attract the attention of the Arabs, and to really turn the Middle East into a mill of flesh and blood.

Well, now everyone should understand the reason why Israel and the USSR did not get in perfect lock. The Jews were not a militant people, they wanted to return to their homeland and live in peace, and they had fought with the Arabs in Palestine because they wanted to grab a piece of land to survive and develop. If the Arabs could accept it, it would be natural that the well water would not interfere with the river water.

The first Middle East war before was because the Arabs did not accept the Jews as their neighbors, and they wanted to cut the throat of their neighbors open with blood.

Once the war is over and the Arabs are deterred, the Jews are not really interested in taking the initiative to engage in regional hegemony or anything. Therefore, after the existential crisis was temporarily resolved, the common interests between Israel and the Soviet Union became less and the differences increased, in other words, the Jews did not want to become pawns in the hands of the Soviet Union, they wanted to decide their own fate. This can also be seen from the reaction of the Israeli top leadership before and after the outbreak of the war, for example, they are very concerned about the attitude of the United States, for fear of getting into too much trouble with the Americans. That's why they've been holding back all the time.

Ben-Gurion, after some thought, decided to visit the United States urgently, he hoped to do the work of the United States, and hoped to persuade the United States to persuade Nasser to stop, and everyone should live a good life with the status quo?

Unfortunately, it really can't. Because Truman wanted the matter to get bigger, so that he could change the subject and avoid being beaten by the news media on the Cuban issue. As for Nasser, Israel in his eyes is a stepping stone to his grand hegemony, and the elimination of Israel is an indispensable part of his established policy, and naturally he will not give up. And in his opinion, it is now the Jews who take the initiative to sue for peace, which shows that the Jews cannot withstand it, and as long as they add more force, they can achieve a complete victory, and stop in this case? Are you kidding! It can't be good or bad at all!

In other words, Ben-Gurion's trip to the United States was a waste of effort, not only did it not play a role in the truce, but it made the Egyptians more determined, mistakenly thinking that they were the ones who had the advantage on the battlefield. Instead, the offensive intensified, and the Jews were ready to be pushed into the sea in one fell swoop.

An urgent visit to the United States had no effect, and Ben-Gurion could only urgently visit the Soviet Union to probe the tone of the Soviet Union and see if he could obtain the support of the Soviet Union at a relatively low cost. However, the timing of his visit to the Soviet Union was also a little unpleasant, because the Soviet Union was busy with two major events at this time, the first was to prepare for the upcoming congress, and the other was to be busy with the publication and proofreading of "Lenin's Complete Works". These two things dominate the government. The latter was the main focus of the vast majority of the energies of the governing councillors, such as Sverdlov, who was preparing to retire, but was the head of the editorial board of Lenin's Complete Works.

Why does Sverdlov have to be in charge? The reason is also very simple, Lenin's situation took a turn for the worse after he completed his proofreading and sorting work, first he suffered a coma for the third time, and it was easy to rescue him, but this time the stroke completely deprived Lenin of most of his language ability, and the tutor could only vaguely express some meanings, and to put it mildly, it was simply "prolonging hunger".

Therefore, the Central Committee must have a veteran comrade with prestige who had experienced most of Lenin's political career to help Lenin make the final proofreading. Only Sverdlov and Trotsky were suitable, but the latter was also busy writing his own books, such as "The Complete Works of Trotsky" and "Memoirs of Trotsky's October Revolution". Sverdlov, on the other hand, was idle, and one of Lenin's closest assistants, and it was only fitting that he should be in charge of the task.

As for Li Xiaofeng, his main task is to organize the next conference, after all, this session will be his turn to be the core, everything will revolve around him, and he must organize this meeting.

If you think about it, the two cores, one is busy compiling books and the other is busy holding meetings, and that little thing in the Middle East can naturally only stand aside a little, especially considering the Jewish style of riding on the wall, and it is easier to bargain with them.

In charge of hosting Ben-Gurion was Kuibyshev, who was in charge of government affairs and the prime minister of the country, according to the plans of the next congress, and it makes sense that he would be in charge of diplomacy.

In fact, there was nothing to be done between Kuibyshev and Ben-Gurion, because the differences between the two sides were relatively large. On behalf of the Soviet Union, Kuibyshev hoped that Israel would play a more active role in the Middle East issue, and to put it bluntly, Israel would intensify its efforts to pull hatred. And this is what Ben-Gurion did not want to do, and he especially did not want to offend the United States, which, according to the requirements of the Soviet Union, was absolutely impossible.

On the other hand, Ben-Gurion wanted to give support without any political strings attached, but if you think about it, the Soviet Union was not the wrongdoer, so how could it be willing to do it.

So Ben-Gurion went around in circles in the Soviet Union, and he didn't get much support, and the only guarantee given by the Soviet side was that there would be no guarantees, unless Israel submitted a petition of vote.

Ben-Gurion, who returned to Israel, was also a little irritable, and the trip had nothing to gain except wasting aviation fuel and saliva. The attitude of both superpowers is cold, and it seems that everything is left to Israel alone.

So what is the situation on the battlefield now? The Egyptian army is still trying to attack, but with little success. And although the Israeli side has held its ground, it is not a matter of being beaten passively, is it?

After urgent discussions with the Ministry of Defence, Ben-Gurion finally agreed on a limited offensive strategy. At his request, the IDF would move to the offensive during this phase, aiming to eliminate two or three brigades of Egyptian troops within a week and advance the front by 20 to 30 kilometres.

According to Ben-Gurion, this was a punitive operation, the main purpose of which was to hurt the Egyptians and make them abandon provocations and go on the defensive. In this way, even if the Security Council resolution is down, Israel will not suffer.

Truth be told, it's a compromise, the best example of the Israelis' timidity. They wanted to teach the Egyptians a lesson, but they were afraid of offending the Americans. Therefore, it is enough to dare to engage in such a small-scale attack, which is also embarrassing enough.

Anyway, the Israeli military is not satisfied with this plan, but this is a direct order from Ben-Gurion, who made Ben-Gurion extremely prestigious? So even if the Israeli military is not satisfied, it has to accept it.

But again, things on the battlefield are always changing. Ben-Gurion's side had just decided to fight back and teach the Egyptians a lesson, when there was a problem on another front, the Golan Heights. In Israel's War of Independence, the Jews stormed and occupied all of the Golan Heights and part of Lebanon. Naturally, the strategic situation is quite favorable.

However, on the whole, Israel's national strength is still limited, and if it wants to launch a counteroffensive in the west, the east may be a bit stretched. At this time, Syria, which had been watching Nasser's performance, finally couldn't help it, and just as the Jews were preparing to teach Egypt a lesson, they suddenly launched an attack on all fronts of the Golan Heights, with the intention of taking the Golan Heights and entering the heart of Israel in one fell swoop.

This change caught Israel off guard, and the counterattack plan that had just been formulated naturally ended in vain. Even because of the fierce offensive of the Syrians on this line of the Golan Heights, the Jews not to mention the deployment of troops to reinforce the Sinai front, and even need to further mobilize reserves, and even carry out a national general mobilization.

And the national mobilization is no joke, Ben-Gurion is not happy to carry out such a mobilization at this time, because it will cause huge economic losses, and Israel is not financially rich now, and it cannot be wasted so casually. And he is worried, just after the completion of the national mobilization, what will happen to the Egyptians and Syrians who have shrunk their eggs again? Wasn't that a mobilization for nothing?

For a while, Ben-Gurion was in a dilemma, he had to take a good look at the next step, and at the same time, Nasser was not idle...... (To be continued.) )
