Chapter 77: War Breaks Out

At 2 a.m. local time on 17 January 1991, when Iraq refused to implement Security Council resolution 678, the Multinational Force aviation launched Operation "Desert Storm" in an air raid on Iraq.

The air raids of the US military began to be carried out. The entire air attack included the first three of the four operational phases of the "Desert Storm" plan, which the US military called the air battle situation. According to the plan, the three phases will start at the same time, advance together, and achieve the set goals one by one. The usual air attack pattern is that EF-111, EA-6B, and EC-130H electronic warfare aircraft open up the channel first, and the F-117, F-117A, F-111DAEAF, A-6, A-10, AV-8B, F-15E, B-52 and other aircraft responsible for the attack each designated target, and the F-14, F-15C, F-16 and F/A-18 aircraft take on the cover mission.

"President, the Radar Monitoring Department has detected planes coming towards Baghdad from the direction of Saudi Arabia." The herald conveys the report of the Radar Detection Department.

Saddam's eyes were cold, but he didn't expect it to really come: "The infrared induction device is activated!" …… Sound the air raid siren and remind the masses to take shelter! ”

It is estimated that the troops on the border with Saudi Arabia have been bombed on the front line, and Saddam Hussein has transferred his elite troops back to the country in advance, and there are only some miscellaneous troops and newcomers!

Infrared induction device: Heating equipment that simulates defense devices, due to the visual influence of night, can only bomb specific targets through guidance and infrared scanning devices, infrared induction devices are provided by Luo Tiancheng, which contains miniature bombs, which will automatically explode without operation when others obtain them, and have a wireless control system, which can be controlled from a distance.

After the initial electronic reconnaissance plane flew over, one infrared induction device after another came into play, and if it was scanned with an infrared scanning device, it would be found that one hot spot after another was displayed on the ground.

At this time, the sound of air raid sirens resounded throughout Baghdad, waking up people who were sleeping soundly, and the Iraqi people, who had been fighting for many years, knew what this sound meant, and quickly woke up their relatives around them, simply packed up some clothes, and went to the bomb shelter.

"Reach the intended target, launch!" The pilot of an F-117 aircraft saw the picture on the screen, turned on the launch device, pressed the launch button, and everything was so natural, as if he had completed the bombing of the designated target as usual training, and returned smoothly.

At this time, the anti-aircraft batteries in the shadows of Baghdad came into play, and Saddam Hussein deliberately purchased them from the Soviet Union in July last year in order to make the coalition forces suffer, but now the Soviet Union has also openly imposed sanctions on Iraq.

"Shit, what's the situation! So much anti-aircraft equipment! Eagle Two is attacked! is landing......" Before he finished speaking, the pilot couldn't bear it anymore and projected directly from the cabin, looking at the planes around him that were constantly being hit, and the distant city and the area that deviated from the city were in flames, thick smoke was billowing out, and the pilot knew that he was not the only one who was shot down.

"Start the missile launch procedure!" When Saddam Hussein saw the effect, a hint of joy flashed in his originally serious eyes, and he activated the missile launcher provided by Luo Tiancheng.

In fact, Saddam Hussein did not know that the coalition command was now a little chaotic.

"General Schwarzkopf, as a result of this operation, 78 of the 134 sorties we made this time returned and 56 were lost!" The losses in the first air raid were so great, this is all money, millions or even tens of millions of dollars per plane, not counting the fact that now the pilots have landed on Iraqi soil, and there is a great possibility of being captured.

Although there has long been an international agreement that local pilots cannot be killed at will, Iraq is now facing several countries, and whether or not to kill prisoners depends on the mood of the other party.

The faces of the commanders of the coalition forces were ugly, especially General Schwarzkopf, who reacted at the first time with many years of experience, knowing that this operation was learned by Iraq, and the anger in his eyes could not be concealed: "What the hell is going on!" What's going on with the intelligence officers! It's obviously waiting for us to send it to your door! …… Judging from the current situation, the other side has been prepared for a long time, how can our bombing time be obtained by Iraq! ”

"General, according to the analysis of Baghdad intelligence officers, only 30 percent of the target was hit by this bombing, and the remaining 70 percent did not hit!" The information transmitted back by the deputy director of the CIA through his subordinates was shared like everyone in the room.

At this time, the coalition command did not have the slightly relaxed atmosphere at the beginning, and a depressing aura spread in the headquarters, and it was not good to go out of the division!

"Continue to sort, bomb the opponent's air defense facilities, and I will make the sky over Baghdad our airspace! Let the intelligence officers of your countries assist the air forces separately. Do a good job of marking the signal! General Schwarzkopf roared angrily, now that the plan has begun, it is natural that the people of the world cannot see the joke.

The sun slowly rose from the horizon, dispelling the darkness in the night sky, this time Baghdad was in shambles, the bodies of the fallen could be seen everywhere, the buildings were destroyed, the downed planes were still burning with billowing smoke, the sky over Baghdad was like a layer of black smoke shrouded in it, the Allies flew 1356 sorties, 356 downed fighters, and it was just one night!

Basically, all the planes that ran back and forth three times crashed into the Baghdad city area, and many of Iraq's air defense facilities were also detected by intelligence officers, but they were detected and detected, and it was not up to them to decide whether they could transmit their positions or not.

The point is that, according to pre-war intelligence, Iraq simply did not have so many air defenses. As the intelligence of the intelligence officers came one after another, the intelligence chiefs of various countries who had invested intelligence personnel in the Baghdad region looked at the loss reports in their hands, and their faces were ugly, what the hell was going on!

Questions arose in everyone's minds! In particular, the head of the CIA Iraq, whose own team entered with a loss of 56 people! What is this concept, can anyone tell me what is inside Baghdad that will lose so many people! Looking at the location of Iraq on the map, a hint of gloom flashed in my heart.

In fact, no one knew that in a place where everyone could not see, a small insect was listening to everyone's discussion in a corner.

"Haha, okay, I see that you have joined forces to attack me, this time it hurts, more than 300 planes, look at your planes still dare to fly unscrupulously in our airspace, do you really think I am a soft-footed shrimp! …… Come, pass this news to the United Nations and the newspapers, and I want them to see how the plan will be carried out after such a big loss! Saddam Hussein happily looked at the report and shouted joy in his mouth!

Although the first batch of anti-aircraft installations in the early stage of their own layout was destroyed, don't forget that there is a second batch! Waiting for you to come back!

Seeing that the defense facilities of the troops on the front line were being bombed, Saddam's happy mood just now disappeared, the firepower of the coalition forces was too fierce, and when the defense facilities were bombed, it was estimated that he would have to wait in this hole.

"Bell, Bella, thanks to your help this time, otherwise this round of attacks by the United States would have blinded us, and it would have been impossible to react!" Saddam Hussein has already seen the effect of being bombed, and the shock in his heart is incomparable, and the United States can completely wave it.

"Hehe, you haven't noticed the loss of their intelligence personnel, this time our statistics are out, our Xingyue lost 65 people, and the coalition intelligence personnel died 275 people." Luo Tiancheng has no feeling for the death of his team members, after all, he is an Arab, and he has also been specially cultivated by Luo Xingyue in the past two years, and his combat effectiveness is not as good as that of the intelligence officers of the coalition army, of course, he refers to the world's top intelligence professionals, and ordinary countries are more than enough.

"Haha, that's good, don't worry, I won't let you suffer." It doesn't matter if Saddam Hussein heard that only a few people had died on his side! After knowing the death toll of the coalition forces, he was happy again, and Saddam Hussein knew how difficult it was to train an intelligence officer, especially the United States, the world's largest intelligence organization professionals.

After knowing that the follow-up resistance was getting lower and lower, the coalition forces guessed that most of Iraq's air defense forces had been destroyed and continued to send planes to attack!

The circuits inside the missiles produced by Luo Tiancheng are designed to have good anti-jamming capabilities, and the US jammers cannot affect the internal operation, and the hit rate reaches 80 percent! What kind of concept is this!! This is really cool to hit people with super 90s technology! It is the same as the coalition forces are bullying Iraq now, relying on science and technology is bullying Iraq for its low degree of modernization. Luo Tiancheng is the same!

In order not to be hit by missiles, aircraft will have various measures to prevent missiles, especially against missiles with automatic tracking systems. The calculation speed of the detection system integrated into the Luo Tiancheng missile can far exceed that of the 90s, and it is normal for the aircraft in the early 90s to be unable to dodge.

As the time gradually enters the end of January, the strength of the Xingyue mercenaries is known to the coalition forces, and now the coalition countries have a copy of the information on the rise of the Xingyue mercenaries to the present, the specific source is unknown, but the data shows that the Xingyue mercenaries are well-equipped, all of them are extraordinary, the elite of the elite, and the general team is not an opponent.
