v2 Chapter 1458: open play

There are 3 million people in Israel. With efficient mobilization, 200,000 soldiers can be sent to the battlefield within a few days. Of course, 200,000 troops is not a small number, but it is far from enough to take an offensive posture in three directions at the same time. .

With a total population base of only 3 million, even Bulgaria, a model of mobilization during World War I, could draw up to 300,000 troops to fight.

Compared with the Arab countries that now have 870,000 standing troops, they are at a clear disadvantage. In fact, the number of 870,000 standing troops is Egypt, Syria, Jordan, and the Kingdom of Iraq, which is a family with Jordan. Yemen is not counted, because Alan Wilson believes that even if Yemen wants to participate in the war, it will be difficult to persuade Egypt and Saudi Arabia to participate in the war through their own land.

If all the countries participating in the Arab League meeting are counted, the military comparison will become very exaggerated, especially the ideas of the Soviet Union's allies in building the army are similar, and all accounts are framed by regional bullies. It's not too big, but if it's placed in Africa, it's a strong exaggeration.

The world is not fair. Some people are worried about the threat of war, but some people don't take it seriously. "You are not allowed to take a crocodile around. Although that kind of crocodile is hard to beat a dog. But it is still a threat to children! Pammy pull…"

While educating his daughter, Alan Wilson has already prepared the gesture of turning around. If there are bystanders, they may misunderstand. Mira's best brother, Arnold, came down to have a good talk with his good sister.

"Father!" Pamela said in a long and sweet voice, which made the face of Supreme Authority twitch, "Don't call him, I really can't stand this good brother. I see him in the future. Those who are suitable to work in Whitehall have already inherited all your advantages at a young age, and even surpassed them."

"With your current posture, it's hard for me to believe your sincerity." Alan Wilson was careful about the sugar-coated shells of the Greeks. Just about to say something, Arnold's head appeared from the window, followed by the father and daughter in the manor Shouted, "Father, the call from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is from the Permanent Deputy Secretary."

"Dear Permanent Secretary, it doesn't matter that my father is outside, just wait for a minute." Arnold said while waiting for his father to come back, "I understand the work of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs very much, and my father often said that the work of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is very important but not seen by others Understand, yes, those ignorant citizens, how could they understand the existence of the rules, but this is better, if they don’t understand, they won’t be interested, at least they won’t come out to make trouble.”

After a few words, Arnold saw his father come in, and handed over the phone, "It's about the achievements of the diplomats sent by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to Arab countries this time. Because father, you said that you can call this matter at any time, and now the phone is on the phone." coming."

"Wick!" Alan Wilson nodded, listening to the No. 2 person in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs report the situation, "Washington is quite critical of our actions for peace? How do you understand war, after losing to North Korea and Vietnam, who will you lose to next time? Forget it, how did you reply.”

"According to the Secretary-General, we have conveyed the United States' idea that the Arab countries should exercise restraint and terminate the diversion of the Jordan River to five countries: Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Yemen and Iraq. All countries have rejected our pressure." Wick replied directly, "We have conveyed this attitude to Washington."

"War is bad, and peace is so precious." Alan Wilson said with no surprise on his face. "It's really surprising that they ignored the pressure from the United States."

ah? Arnold listened to his father's words, ignoring the United States as pressure? Isn't it pressure from the UK? What does this have to do with America?

"Until the last moment, we will not give up our efforts to save peace." Alan Wilson raised his head so that his youngest son could not see his expression, "But if the Arab countries reject the proposal of the United States, then we have nothing to do, Britain I've tried my best."

Although I, Great Britain, kept yelling that war was imminent in the Middle East countries with a loudspeaker, it was not for the purpose of using war to deter the Arab League and not to act rashly in the end.

The starting point is good, no one can deny this point, the mouth is full of war is coming, it is hoped that both sides understand the consequences of the outbreak of war. But if both parties feel that the advantage is in me, then there is no way.

In fact, who can hide this dark psychology from Kissinger, who almost overturned in the India-Pakistan war and is now Secretary of State, but so what?

You are a Jew, what's your reputation in the Arab world? The ethnic composition of Jews alone is not worthy of the trust of Arab countries.

As early as when Kissinger was not the Secretary of State, his name had already been spread throughout the Arab world by Alan Wilson. Another example of Zionism parasitizing in the United States made Kissinger realize it. Three-point treatment in the world.

Today is different from the past. After the Vietnam War, the United States is no longer the United States. Of course, the United States is still very strong, which Alan Wilson does not deny.

But it is no longer the kind of power that can see all mountains and small things at a glance. Now aspiring middle-level powers can completely bargain with the United States.

Just like the United States after the Kabul trapeze from Afghanistan, everyone knows that you can't do anything, and you can only use all means to face Russia except war. Forcing other countries to make concessions, how can we not come up with some real money now?

"Father, I think we are on the American side?" Seeing his father put down the phone, Arnold couldn't help asking.

"My good son, we are on the victor's side. First of all, we must make sure that there are more victors over there." Alan Wilson raised his eyebrows, and stood with his hands behind his back, pretending to turn his back on all sentient beings, "Don't be fooled Personal emotions interfere with normal judgment."

On August 21, the Kingdom of Egypt officially announced that it would block the Tim Strait. This statement was supported by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and the Egyptian army on Tim Island entered a state of war. On the same day, the Kingdom of Jordan officially announced the opening of the Jordan River diversion project, and will work with Syria to prevent the Jordan River from being used by Israel.

Upon learning of the news, Foreign Secretary Patrick immediately issued a note to Egypt, Jordan and Syria, "This will plunge the Middle East into war. I hope the leaders of the three countries can consider the hard-won peace and replace it with a more caring party." beneficial plan."

Britain still did not give up its peace efforts until the last moment, and hoped that Arab countries would not use this obviously hostile plan. The British ambassador to Arab countries even stated in extremely strong terms that Israel is not itself, and there is the United States behind Israel. , America will not let Israel fail.

The Israeli military has also made its own war judgment. They believe that if they passively counterattack at the border, Israel will be besieged from three directions, and Egypt and Jordan may join forces in the middle of Israel, cutting Israel into two sections. If this happens, Israel will perish.

"The Arab countries still haven't agreed to our proposal." Wick went to the Cabinet Office, expressing his shame that Britain had not prevented the coming of war.

"It's okay, we've done everything we can." Alan Wilson didn't mean to blame at all, the British Foreign Office has done a good enough job. At least it has played a role in letting the whole world know that a war is about to break out in the Middle East, and let this war be played. Even if you want to sneak attack, there is no such environment.

Britain's war warnings are of course useful. At least the Arab League side was warned by the UK every now and then, and they really started preparing for war. They didn't put their hopes on Israel not daring to act rashly.

In the middle of the night on August 28th, after a week, the Israeli government seemed to be just talking tough and not ready to take military action~lightnovelpub.net~But on this day, the ground staff at the major airports in Israel passed through the night The busyness of preparing all the work indicates that the war is finally coming, the sun rises, and on the runways of the major Israeli air force bases, one Israeli Air Force fighter jet after another rises from the ground and flies towards the air force bases of the Arab countries.

The Israeli Air Force does not fly in formation. The pilots practice their skills hard and fly fighter jets at ultra-low altitudes over the Mediterranean Sea. The lowest point is less than ten meters from the sea. Half an hour after 300 Israeli Air Force fighter jets flew out of the country, they flew straight into the sky over Egypt from the sea of ​​the Nile Delta, and began their air strikes on the Kingdom of Egypt.

Half an hour after the Israeli Air Force was dispatched, five Israeli ground forces on the border between Egypt and Israel rushed towards the Sinai Peninsula. Israel finally chose to bring down Egypt, the strongest in the Arab world, before addressing threats from other directions.

At the same time, Israeli Prime Minister Meir summoned the US ambassador to Israel and explained Israel's difficulties, "In order to ensure the existence of Israel, there is no other option but war."

In Egypt, there was noise in the air, and Israeli planes struck like lightning. In order to maximize efficiency, all fighter jets carried air-to-ground missiles and bombs, first destroying the runway, and then bombarding ground planes with missiles and cannons.

Countless anti-aircraft missiles received early warning from the Egyptian side rushed straight into the sky, hoping to wipe out the incoming Israeli air force on the way to attack.

King Fouad II of Egypt was taken aback by the news of the outbreak of war. "We must let other Arab countries know about this news."

It is good to have good food. At least Fuad II will not be like Nasser. I really feel that I have the advantage. At the critical moment, His Majesty the King was really obedient, and immediately informed the other countries of the Arab League about the news that Israel provoked the war.
