Chapter 181: Seriously Overestimated Combat Effectiveness

"I had just gotten off work when the emergency evacuation order was issued, the horns were blaring, the sirens were blaring, all the channels were broadcasting, even the damn billboards and street signs were telling us to get out of town. I once tried to call my family and friends, but it turned out to be either busy or busy, and in any case, this set of video communication calls that cost us hundreds of millions of dollars in taxpayers couldn't get through! My parents, wife, children, and friends almost all lived in a residential complex in the center of the city, and I was in the northwest of the city, in a ghost place far away from most of the city, overseeing the damn Thai mine defense wall! {The questioned, with tears streaming from his eyes, continued to choke and preach after 68 seconds of crying.} }

After less than 15 minutes of driving, I had to leave my car behind and start running back to the city on foot. Because after the first alarm, the exit of the street was completely blocked by countless vehicles in these ten minutes, and the traffic situation in the entire urban area was basically paralyzed.

After a while, I ran past the holographic TV booths, some of which were still broadcasting, and all I saw was destruction, death, war, explosions. O my Allah! Could it be that the damn king spent so much foreign exchange reserves, and those so-called advanced weapons bought from Xinhua were just a bunch of scrap iron from foreign powers! {Hands bang heavily on the table, seemingly muttering some muttered curse for 45 seconds.} }

…… I continued to run as hard as I could, but somehow a slight whisper began to appear in my ears. At first I thought it was the static sound of the city's public address system, which should have been silent a few minutes ago. But I was wrong, that's something even more terrible! It's like a machine, but it's alive. As I thought, my steps became more and more urgent, and the sound became louder and louder, the sky became darker, the city walls collapsed, and the city walls, which I participated in building, collapsed...... In the sky, there is something even more terrible in the sky! {Subject buries his head in his hands and mutters inaudible for 35 seconds.)

…… Growing larger, blue, shining. Like a machine, but alive. I kept running, my lungs were burning and my ribs were hurting, but I was almost to the city. There was something in the sky, just like everything else, but it was huge, it made a deafening sound, it was a huge ring, revolving around a center, like a master pod or something! I was so close to it that I could see everything and even see how it worked. It was almost above me, enveloping the entire center of Riyadh, when it began to glow, as if it were activating some kind of energy.

I lowered my head and ran as fast as I could.

For a moment, there was silence, as if the behemoth had sucked all the sounds out of the air. Then there was the light, and there was only one light in front of him, which devoured everything in heaven and earth. I fell to the ground and closed my eyes.

It is the light, and the tranquility is with the light.

When I regained my sanity, the whole of Riyadh ...... The center of Riyadh is gone, the workers' housing complexes are gone, the troops who were trying to resist are gone, and everything that seemed to me was gone, leaving only a huge crater in the city's original place. In the middle of the crater, something blue...... Blue, shimmering ......"

End of the recording of survivors - Foreman of the Civil Engineering Corps in Riyadh, Abdul Ander. Testimony of Saif being under the control of a special unit, Yuri, in his recollections.

"Chairman Lee, this is the statement of the only survivor that our First Expeditionary Force sent to the Middle East a few hours ago has so far found within the Blue Zone of the Arab League! As for whether new survivors will be found in the entire Middle East Blue Zone now, I am afraid that there will be a substantive conclusion only after the search operations of the various units are over!

The speed of the collapse of the Arab coalition is indeed much faster than we expected. Because from the time I received Prime Minister Han Weiguo's request to attack to the time when the vanguard deployed in Afghanistan finally reached the predetermined position, the time spent on the way was even nearly half an hour earlier than the worst scenario that had been planned, but the result turned out to be what it is today. ”

"Well, don't say anything superfluous. I understand that the responsibility for the failure of this operation does not lie with you, nor does it have anything to do with Major General Zhang Mohan, commander-in-chief of the First Expeditionary Force. It's just that why we obviously sold so many advanced weapons with acceptable performance to Saudi Arabia and other friendly countries in the Middle East, even if the soldiers of those countries are all waste smokers, and the high-level commanders are idiots who command indiscriminately on the battlefield like Shen Kaigong! With those heavy weapons and vehicles that still have some autonomous attack capabilities despite the dismantling of the intelligent program, TMD will not lose even ** left! Could it be that some people, for personal gain in arms transactions, deliberately secretly remove some things that should not have been dismantled, and then sell them to the other party at shoddy quality? ”

"My Chairman Li, the conscience of heaven and earth! You're a little too wronged to say that! Who knows that the arms transactions of various countries have been completed under Noah's full supervision and through the dual checks of the Military Intelligence Agency and the National Security Agency. If you want to pass the test under this level of multi-level and high-intensity inspection and supervision, it is definitely an incredible miracle if you can succeed!

As for why the battle, which was expected to last at least 12 hours, ended up completely after less than 1 hour. In fact, there are many factors interacting in it, which has caused today's unexpected and terrible results! Please allow your subordinates to come together for you.

First of all, if we look for the reason from ourselves, I am afraid that all this is absolutely inseparable from the second-hand equipment that has long been backward and retired in the inventory that we assisted the other side. After all, if even one-tenth of the other side's regular army units used the active weapons of our Wehrmacht, no matter how incompetent they were, they would never be so powerless to fight back under the large-scale invasion of the Sijinns! Of course, then again, there are not enough new weapons for our own troops, so how can we sell them cheaply!

In addition, because we recently conducted a military operation in space and the following large-scale clean-up operations within our territory, we have mobilized more than 90 percent of our reconnaissance satellites to conduct real-time and comprehensive monitoring of the battlefield. This makes it impossible for the remaining dozen satellites to completely cover and monitor all the hot spots in the world. After all, compared to the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Australia, the Far East and Europe are equally important, and it is necessary to keep an eye on the situation at any time.

With less than four or so specialized reconnaissance satellites left, coupled with a small number of unmanned reconnaissance aircraft groups, it is simply impossible to carry out all-weather and indiscriminate monitoring of such a large area. Otherwise, there would never have been such a big mess in less than 40 minutes of monitoring and we would have had no response!

Of course, we will not shy away from our own mistakes, but the combat effectiveness of those countries in the Middle East is really too good! Although, according to the relatively complete documentation of the wreckage of the battlefield vehicles, the alien invaders as you call the Skins wielded a terrifying superweapon that we have never seen before!

However, in my opinion, although the extremely strange-looking circular spaceship has the terrible destructive ability to destroy the world, its maneuverability is so bad that it is slower than a snail, and it is absolutely impossible to easily break through the extremely tight air defense network of major cities and easily fire in the sky above them in the early stage of the war, when most of the anti-aircraft weapons have not been destroyed! Perhaps only the air defense forces, which are extremely incompetent or afraid of death to a certain extent, can let go of such a big prey and remain indifferent! And unfortunately, although the air defense weapons systems that we sell to the countries of the Middle East cannot be called the best! As the standard weapons of the cannon fodder clone corps in the domestic clean-up operation, those old multi-functional air defense combat vehicles that should have been retired and mothballed a long time ago still achieved at least more than four figures, while their own losses were only about half of the opponent's.

Not only are the air defense forces extremely incompetent, but the performance of their other branches of the armed forces is probably not much better. Although our unmanned reconnaissance plane, which was the first to arrive on the battlefield, only succeeded in shooting a piece of on-site video of less than five minutes due to the chaotic battle situation. Riyadh, the Saudi capital with the most heavily defended and garrisoned troops in the entire Middle East, was still not fully mobilized when it was about to be destroyed!

I won't talk about why the fairly advanced VTOL fighters in their air base spent more than half an hour still lying in the airport bunker after the battle broke out, and would rather be blown into scum than leave. Just the large number of ordinary soldiers in the city who messed around without firing a single shot, and the heavy tank fighting vehicles that were abandoned without hesitation before firing are enough to tell the story! And what is even more incomprehensible than these is that the other side has deployed a number of large military bases in the city, and only one-third of the automatic defense weapons purchased at a huge cost are actually operating normally! And the ultra-long-range radar purchased from our country, in the face of the movement of alien invasion troops in the red zone, did not play its due early warning role!

I can't complain about the most militarily powerful country in the alliance, but perhaps its military has played a little bit of a positive role compared to the other brain-dead departments of their government! I really want to know what idiot made the emergency evacuation order issued by the government in the first place! Could it be that he said to run away quickly, and if he didn't run for his life, he would die, and he would be finished? Anyway, as a public servant who eats the country's imperial food, you have a sense of responsibility, so it's okay to announce the approximate location of the shelter in the city a little! Is it necessary to make those compatriots who have long been frightened like headless flies rushing to the pocket formation of the Sijin ground troops to die? ”

Listening to the report of the Chief of the General Staff Zhang Jun, the more excited he became, Li Feng, who had already been scorched by Lei, had already watched the textbook video of the most standard defense failure, and had already completely Spartan for a certain once big money pit king who was incompetent to this extent! But perhaps he may not know that this country is like a child's play to today's tragic end! It has a great connection with the gradual transformation from a local tyrant to a poor ** silk, relying on the savings saved from selling oil before the outbreak of the Tiberium mine in the past, and re-entering the thigh of Xinhua to become a military hegemon!

In the face of such drastic changes in a country, there are naturally many problems that arise within it. It's just that at the beginning, with his rich family background, he successfully escaped the fate of being destroyed by the flooding of Tiberium ore, but at the same time, he planted countless more deadly seeds! Although the already extremely acute contradictions in society have been temporarily suppressed by all this. It's just that in the future, with the emergence of nod, and the fact that it was gradually abandoned by GDI due to the loss of its own use value in the process of competing for supremacy. But this only family in the Middle East, which has no worries about food and clothing, and can be called a paradise on earth, has gradually come to the brink of degeneration.

And the army, which is the backbone, is naturally the first to bear the brunt of this corruption, which slowly becomes incorrigible, even if suddenly a dose of fierce medicine revives it from the brink of death, but the corruption that has long been rotten to the bone has reached the point of irreversibility!

"Enough! That's enough! I said Comrade Zhang Jun! Anyway, the expansion plan in the Middle East has failed, so don't continue to dwell on this. Success? In addition to taking care of that crazy man for me, let him honestly guard the B4 blue zone for me, and don't add any new mess to me. Now you just need to think about how to keep the population resources of Southeast Asia from being ruined by those alien mongrels! ”

With the new instructions issued by Li Feng, who was a little annoyed by this tirade, the Singapore government, which is the biggest nail in the expansion of Southeast Asia, has sadly entered a state of destruction before the countdown in advance!
