Let's put it this way, there is a completely unequal competition between Israel and the Arab countries. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info Every war is a battle of life and death for Israel, and once they lose, it means that they will lose their ancestral land forever. And for the Arabs, because of the oil resources, because of the abundant human resources, because of the vast land, they have a stronger ability to withstand failure, they will come twice if they can't do it once, and three times if they can't do it twice.
So in the long run, there are only two ways for Israel to survive in the Middle East: the first is to hold on to the big thick legs of the super-hooligans so that the Arab countries cannot go too far. The second way is to reconcile with the Arab countries and live together in peace.
The first way is simple, and there are ready-made Soviet big thick legs to hold for Israel, but Israel has always been less trusting of the Soviet model, and does not feel that the Soviet Union alone can resist the siege of the entire Western capitalist world. The Jews really know too much about the urine nature of these old rascals, don't look at their mouths full of benevolence and morality, but in essence, they are a bunch of devils who eat people and don't spit out bones. Once the Soviet Union loses the competition, Israel may face the dilemma of being driven out of Palestine and wandering for another thousand years, and the Jews really do not want to go through such miserable days again.
Let's talk about the second way, in fact, the second way is the long-term way, and the reconciliation between Israel and the Arabs is indeed beneficial to both sides. But this path is not so easy to choose, ethnic conflicts, religious conflicts, conflicts of economic interests, the knot formed by these three conflicts is so easy to untie? What's more, there are also international hooligans who are not in chaos in the Middle East behind their backs, and this road is not so easy to follow.
Look at Rabin and Sadat, who later realized this, these two can indeed be regarded as statesmen, they saw that if they continued to confront each other like this, the two countries would always be only pawns to be used and played, so they took the step of reconciliation with great courage, and what they did was admirable, but what was the end of these two? They were all assassinated. Do you dare to say that behind the assassinations of these two people is only the resentment and hatred of extremists, and there is no competition for the interests of major powers?
What's more, Ben-Gurion is not Rabin and Sadat, those two chose to change after experiencing previous wars in the Middle East and finding it pointless to continue to fight like this. Ben-Gurion does not see this now, and he firmly believes that if the Jewish people want to regain their foothold in the Middle East and the world, they must be forged with the sword and blood. With this in mind, do you think he will choose the second path?
So there was only one way out of Ben-Gurion's face from beginning to end, to take refuge in the big hooligans. Now that the Western bloc led by the United States has chosen Arabia, Ben-Gurion has no choice but to turn to the Soviet Union. He had to give up his previous hesitation and ride the wall, and really satisfy the Soviet Union.
This determination was not something that Ben-Gurion could make alone, so he urgently flew back and convened a cabinet meeting to discuss, and the final outcome of this discussion will affect the order of the Middle East and the world, and everything depends on what the Jews choose!
But we all know that Jews don't have many options, if not any, so the result is not surprising at all. After holding a meeting all night, the Jewish Council of Elders finally made up their minds that it would certainly be difficult to pass the test if they did not offend the Americans this time, and even if they offended the United States this time, it may not be impossible to repair relations in the future. So fuck it!
Once he had made up his mind, the Jews' movements became quite rapid, and Ben-Gurion rushed to Moscow again and again to talk to Li Xiaofeng, almost non-stop.
"Mr. Andrei, we have made up our minds that this time we must make the Arabs look good!" Ben Gurion said very firmly.
However, Li Xiaofeng remained silent and asked calmly: "Really?" Why do I think your resolve is not so sufficient? β
Ben-Gurion hurriedly wanted to explain something, but Li Xiaofeng gagged him with a sentence: "If you really make up your mind, you should tell me that you have the determination to seize the Suez Canal." But you told me that I only want to bully useless Arabs, don't you think that this determination is too cheap? β
Ben-Gurion is also a little embarrassed, as Li Xiaofeng said, this determination is indeed too cheap, because they can't help but worry about the reaction of the Americans! After all, the Jewish consortium still has to live in the United States! How can you not be worried?
Li Xiaofeng smiled: "Do you think there is an inevitable relationship between the two?" Do you think that you will retaliate against the United States by ruthlessly repairing the Arabs and not giving face to the United States? It's naΓ―ve, let's put it this way, the better you do in this war, the easier it will be for your Jews in the United States, but you will do badly, hehe, I'm afraid the US Congress doesn't mind slaughtering fat sheep. β
This reason is actually very simple, the Jews think that the United States is very weak and can only tolerate it, but on the whole this is not wrong, and the Jews really cannot openly provoke the United States. But this does not mean that after being provoked by the Arabs, the Jews cannot fight back. It is true that beating the Arabs will make the Americans unhappy, but will the big men of the United States dare to attack the Jewish financial consortium if they are not happy? There is no such possibility, after all, these Jewish financial conglomerates are American, and all aspects of their involvement are often aimed at safeguarding the interests of the upper echelons of the United States. Let the upper echelons who can decide the fate of the United States joke about their own vital interests, and the American elites are not so brain-dead. It is possible to beat and warn the Jews, but it is impossible to kill the Jewish consortium.
On the other hand, if Israel behaves badly, it will be quite bad, and then the American political elite will not mind slamming the Jewish consortium in the name of saving Israel.
Even if the Jews really hit the Suez Canal, as long as the Jews do not block the canal or seize control, the American political elite will not be too angry, anyway, there is not much damage to the interests, as long as the Jews do not go out of line, they can bear it.
Some comrades may say: Comrade Immortal, didn't you just say that the Jews did not dare to attack the Suez Canal? Isn't this a blatant incitement to the death of the Jews?
That being said, the seizure of the Suez Canal does not mean that the Jews will have to eat alone, because after the capture of the Suez Canal, as long as the Jews are not too stupid, they will not try to control the canal, at least not yet. With Ben-Gurion's urine, he didn't have the guts to do so. The right thing for him to do was to use it for political gain for Israel and the Soviet Union and to trade the Suez Canal. What Li Xiaofeng meant was that Ben-Gurion didn't even have the courage to make such a deal.
And Ben Gurion also heard Li Xiaofeng's true intentions, which couldn't help but make him a little relieved, because he was really worried that the Soviet Union's goal was to control the Suez Canal. If it is such a goal, he really doesn't dare to play, it belongs to playing with fire and self-immolation. And now, the goals of the USSR were not so radical, and they only intended to use this to knock a stroke from the United States. This was much less than what Israel could bear.
Of course, Ben-Gurion did not immediately agree to Li Xiaofeng's conditions, because the Soviet Union had to give him a reassuring pill, and without this pill he would not dare to act rashly. Li Xiaofeng naturally saw Israel's intentions, and he didn't mind giving such a pill, as long as Israel was obedient, what should be given would still be given.
Li Xiaofeng said slowly: "The Soviet government has always insisted on developing friendly relations with Israel, and the two sides are old friends who share weal and woe, and they once fought side by side against the fascist aggressors. The Government and the people of the Soviet Union sincerely hope that the people of Israel will live happily and in peace...... Now that this peace has been undermined by a group of conspirators with ulterior motives, Israel is facing a great crisis, and in this situation, the Soviet people are ready to support the Jewish people in their just struggle...... We have decided to provide Israel with hundreds of tanks, armoured vehicles, as well as a considerable amount of ammunition and medicine, as well as other supplies. β
Of course, the aid taken for nothing is good, but what Ben-Gurion really wants is not this aid, but the political commitment of the Soviet Union, after all, the enemy that Israel has to face now is the United States and its spokesman, and there is no political giant to support Israel, which is really uneasy!
Li Xiaofeng naturally knew what Ben-Gurion really wanted, and he said slowly: "The Soviet government will maintain peace in the Middle East within the framework of the United Nations, and is willing to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of the Israeli people. β
Well, Ben-Gurion is really relieved, what he is most afraid of on his side is not the Arab coalition army, it is a bunch of chickens and dogs, and it is not difficult for Israel, which is really fully mobilized, to defeat them. What is difficult for Israel is to beat this group of scum and run out of a bunch of scumbags, pointing fingers at Israel one by one, telling you to stop fighting today, making you retreat tomorrow, and letting the snatched chassis have to be spit out again. It is tantamount to making Israel useless.
And now, with Li Xiaofeng's guarantee, the possibility of doing useless work is much less ruthless. If the United States is prepared to use the Security Council to pull the strings, the Soviet Union's opposition vote can directly make the United States' attempt go down the drain. And if the Security Council fails to make a truce resolution, then Israel can completely let go and teach the Arabs how to fight.
Ben-Gurion returned to Israel in high spirits, and soon the Jewish chariot was fully mobilized. What is more interesting is that the Arab chariot is also slowly starting, the coalition forces including Egypt, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Iraq and Saudi Arabia have been formed, and the six countries will begin to move towards Palestine.
It should be said that these six families are still a little menacing, nearly 200,000 troops divided into several ways to march forward, the yellow sand rolled up by the wheels covers the sky and the sun, it is very majestic.
However, this coalition army is actually just a kind of goods, compared with the elite Israel Defense Forces that passed the test of World War II, this group is basically a rabble, with a very low level of education, and the military training received is not qualified, especially the middle and senior officers are very lacking in military literacy, and it is difficult to organize decent military operations. However, these people are still full of confidence, thinking that the Jews are fish on the chopping block and can be greeted casually.
This is a group of loose arrogant soldiers, and the only thing that can be seen is momentum. However, for the coalition army, this is not the most fatal problem, the real killer is the top of the coalition army, these people did not formulate a military plan for the first time, nor did they seriously organize the action, their first thought was to fight for power and profit, I have to say, these people are really strange.
However, this is also understandable, the Arab League is not monolithic, Nasser is one idea, the Syrians are another, and the Saudi Arabians think that they are the natural boss of the Arabs and should be the leader. And the Jordanian royal family has contradictions with the Saudi royal family, and no one is birding anyone. So after arguing for a long time, there was no conclusion as to who would be the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces. That is to say, in the end, the so-called coalition forces are only nominal, and these six are actually fighting on their own.
How threatening can a plate of loose sand be? What's more, because of the different distances, the timing of the armies of the six countries to enter the battlefield is completely different. Let's put it this way, only Egypt and Syria are really fighting against the Jews, and Lebanon is symbolically except for a thousand people because of its weak national strength. As for Jordan, although it is relatively close, it has not prepared for war before, so it is still preparing in a hurry. As for Iraq and Saudi Arabia, these two are far away and are still eating sand on the road!
So let's put it this way, Israel's military pressure is actually not as great as imagined, and when the national mobilization is completed, with a steady stream of reservists rushing to the battlefield, and with the arrival of Soviet-aided military equipment, they still have an advantage.
In this case, if the Jews wanted to, they could actually reverse Egypt and Syria, but Aden did not do this, because according to Ben-Gurion's orders, this time there must be a big battle, preferably breaking the backbones of the six families in one fell swoop, so that they do not dare to make another casual attack.
Although Aden did not know where Ben-Gurion's confidence came from, there was no soldier who did not like honor. So he immediately came up with the easiest of the three battle plans drawn up before the war.
Soon Aden, in the name of the Chief of the General Staff, ordered all the troops: "The line of the Sinai Peninsula is turned into retreat, luring the enemy deeper." In the future, seek the opportunity to fight a war of annihilation, and strive to annihilate the main force of the Egyptian army in one fell swoop! β
As soon as Aden's order came out, it immediately caused a shock within the IDF, because it was too bold...... (To be continued.) )
