Chapter 155: Shoot down
Chapter 155: Shot down
"Alas, how did the Taliban retreat so quickly? It's useless! Hmph......" Sitting in front of the TV, Bai Mei wrinkled her nose and complained.
Hear the words.
Xiao Tian smiled bitterly, what could he say, the United States is the only superpower in the world, and its military power is all over the world, and no one can shake it, even a resuscitating polar bear.
Is this kind of military force something that the Taliban can easily stop? Although Omar has purchased a lot of advanced arms from Darkstar, if he wants to fight the US military with just those things, it will undoubtedly be "a stone with eggs", and he will be defeated.
Xiao Tian plans to use the Taliban to drive out the US military and reserve a fertile soil for his development.
But.
It will take time, and before that, he has to bang Omar to make him understand who wants to regain power in Afghanistan.
"Mei'er, you don't expect the Taliban to defeat the U.S. military, do you?"
"Where? I just think they lost too quickly. Bai Mei said unwillingly, she usually pays attention to some news about the Taliban, plus she took out the news from Xiao Tian, she is still full of confidence that the Taliban can resist the US military for a few days.
Who knows, on the first day that the US troops entered the city, the Taliban retreated all the way, and there was no decent resistance at all, how could Bai Mei not be disappointed.
"Huh."
Xiao Tian did see Bai Mei's interest in arms, and sometimes, he wondered if he should let Bai Mei enter the dark star to play her strengths?
But.
Think about it, forget it, the dark star is managed by the silver fox, it's good.
"By the way, Xiǎo Tian, didn't you say that Omar bought a lot of tanks, artillery, rocket artillery, and fighter jets from Darkstar, why didn't he see it?" White Rose is strange.
"Hehe, this is Omar's cunning, he knows that the capture of Tallinnkot will make the American army angry, and he will definitely recapture it at any cost, coupled with the combat habits of the American army, every time he attacks a place, it is necessary to carry out carpet bombing and Jing Zheng strikes. If he had put those heavy weapons in Tallinnkot, he would only be a living target. Xiao Tian explained.
"Oh."
Bai Mei understood, it turned out that Omar had hidden all the heavy weapons, and they were not arranged in Tallinnkot at all, so the real battle had not yet begun.
"And the Taliban soldiers in Tallinnkot?"
"Cannon fodder."
Xiao Tian sneered indifferently, he wouldn't care about the life or death of the Taliban.
"Ah......h
Bai Mei was surprised, those Taliban soldiers were actually sent to death as pawns, cannon fodder. Xiao Tian didn't make a big fuss, for Omar, as long as it was beneficial to him, not to mention sacrificing some cannon fodder, it was not impossible to give up his cronies.
But.
Xiao Tian is also curious, how is Omar going to fight the US military? It's not enough to rely on the weapons you get from the dark stars.
The fatal threat of the Taliban is that the air defense is too weak, and the newly formed anti-aircraft missile battalion does not dare to use it for air defense, but uses it to prepare for a sneak attack on US fighters. Obviously, the Taliban's tactical thinking is still stuck in the stage of using bazookas to sneak attack helicopters to make trouble.
It is also a strange story that anti-aircraft missiles have fallen to such a sad state.
……
Intelligence officers from various countries also received information that the Taliban had obtained a batch of heavy weapons, but the US military did not encounter these weapons in Tallinnkot, and it was obvious that these heavy equipment had been transferred by the Taliban.
Right now.
All countries are paying attention to when the Taliban will collide head-on with the US military. A few years ago, the Taliban were able to fight with the US ground forces with a rudimentary AK, not to mention the Taliban who are now in a big outfit.
There is only one explanation for this situation, the Taliban are avoiding the war.
……
Just as everyone speculated about Omar's next move.
Right now.
Omar fell into a painful choice, in the face of F-16 fighters, his anti-aircraft missile battalion, should he fight or not? Shooting down this third-generation fighter that the US military is gradually retiring is obviously not as shocking as shooting down the B-2 bomber or the F-22 "Raptor". The blow to the US military will not be too much.
"Chief?"
After not responding to Omar for a long time, the commander of the anti-aircraft missile battalion, Cardini, was in a hurry. If it drags on any longer, there will be no chance to fight if you want to.
"Phew, Cardini."
Cardini's heart was in his throat, he didn't know what the leader's decision was, but, from the bottom of his heart, he himself was inclined to shoot down the F-16 fighter.
And.
In the first actual battle, he did not dare to guarantee that he would be able to shoot down the F-16 fighter 100 percent.
"Fight, seize the opportunity, hit hard!" After all, once the F-16 fighter plane is shot down, the anti-aircraft missile matter will definitely go out, which will lead to a crazy bombing by the US military, and even the entire Taliban-controlled area.
"Yes, Chief."
……
"Battalion commander?"
"Aru, enhance the radar BO signal, lock on to the US fighter jets!" Cardini didn't wait for Aru to ask, and ordered directly and decisively.
"Yes."
Everyone responded in unison, all excited.
Soon.
Everyone returned to their respective posts and waited nervously, there was a radar command vehicle, two missile vehicles, and four anti-aircraft missiles at a time.
This means that they have a chance to shoot down four F-16 fighters of the US military!
"Shh......h
Cardini took a deep breath lightly, looked at the red dot on the radar, it had been locked, and his palms were slightly sweaty, the first time he fought with live ammunition, the opponent was the US military, and it was false to say that he was not nervous or worried.
"Hair shè."
Staring at the locked US F-16 fighters, Cardini's eyes flashed fiercely and shouted.
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
……
At the sound of an order, the four missiles on the two hair cars all came out, like a leopard going out to hunt for food, rushing towards the prey.
Three thousand meters in the air.
The F-16 fighters of a squadron of the US military were hovering in the air, and the pilots in the fighters were extremely relaxed, and they did not think that it was necessary for friendly forces on the road to call for air fire support.
But.
They could not have imagined that they were the target of the Taliban.
"Huh?"
The warning sounded suddenly, and Ham looked at the radar, his face pale, and he only had time to curse, "**......". His landline was actually locked by a missile!
"Captain Henry, I'm Ham, and I've had a missile attack!" Ham shouted urgently, and at the same time, quickly fired an electromagnetic interference bomb.
"Captain, Unit 26, encountered a missile attack ......"
"Captain, No. 21, locked by an unknown missile, tracked ......"
……
"Grass."
Henry cursed in a low voice, and in just a dozen seconds, four fighters in the flight squadron he led were actually attacked by missiles.
"Hell, those bunches of hunders, didn't they say that the Taliban didn't master the missiles? How can there be anti-aircraft missiles here? ……”
Moment.
"Peng!"
An F-16 fighter, unable to dodge, was hit by a missile, exploded with a "boom", and turned into a pile of wreckage in the blink of an eye, and the pilot on board did not have time to parachute to escape.
……
"yes, okay."
Watching a fighter disappear on the radar screen, Cardini and Aru and others, clapping their hands and celebrating, it was so touching, a US F-16 fighter was shot down!
……
"Jack, Jack......"
Suddenly found the signal of the No. 30 machine and disappeared on the radar, Henry was shocked and hurriedly called, but no one answered, and couldn't help but shout and curse angrily, Jack's fighter plane was probably shot down by the Taliban.
"Hell, is it April Fool's Day?" Henry still doesn't believe that the advanced fighter plane of the US military was actually shot down by these poor ghosts like the Taliban.
"Captain, my fighter plane, the wing was heavily damaged, and I asked to return and make a forced landing."
Before Henry came to his senses, another member of the team reported, glancing at the radar, this fighter, after reporting the news, was eager to return, and couldn't wait for Henry's response, it seems that the injury is not light.
……
"Command center, I am Lieutenant Colonel Henry of the 76th Flying Squadron, and we have encountered an anti-aircraft missile attack by the Taliban and asked for support." In tens of seconds, one was shot down and one was seriously injured and returned home, Henry did not dare to be careless, and hurriedly called the command center for support.
"What? Anti-aircraft missiles! ”
The people in the command center, after getting the news, were shocked. In particular, Admiral Kate was even more furious, scolding secretly, "Rohm, this bastard, didn't you say that the Taliban don't have missiles?" Kate was so dizzy that even his immediate boss, President Roma, scolded him.
"Send an airborne early warning aircraft to search for the enemy's missile firing ......"
……
……
"Aru, order to retreat, be quick."
Cardini yelled, his voice mixed with excitement, four missiles shot down a U.S. F-16 fighter, although it was not as perfect as expected, but it was not bad.
Right now.
Their first task is to evacuate quickly, hide in a safe area, and with the advanced technology of the US military, they will soon be able to lock on here, and if they don't retreat, they will be finished.
Thereupon.
Three large vehicles quickly shuttled through the mountains and forests, speeding to the southeast.
……
"The location of the missile launch was determined, the city of Tallinnkot, 38 kilometers southeast." Soon, the US reconnaissance plane searched for the location of the Taliban anti-aircraft missile.
Sou! Sou! Sou! Sou!
Moment.
After receiving the information, the 76th Flying Squadron and four F-16 fighters immediately changed course and quickly swept towards the Taliban missile launch point.
“**……”
Henry and the others drove the fighter plane to the place where Cardini was hiding, but the Taliban had already slipped away, and where could they still find a figure.
"Captain, they're moving southeast."
……
In the southeast, there is the nest of the Taliban armed forces, and Henry does not dare to pursue deeply, before, the Taliban did not have anti-aircraft missiles, they drove fighter planes, and they could act recklessly.
But.
Not now, if it is targeted by Taliban anti-aircraft missiles, it will be tragic.
"Whoosh. Sou! ”
With a ruthless heart, Henry, sent out the two medium-range air-to-surface missiles carried by the fighter.
"Ah......h
Cardini and Aru, riding in the radar car, found the missile that was quickly chasing on the radar screen, and their faces couldn't help but change, sweat brushed down their cheeks, and secretly said, "It's over......!" ”
