v2 Chapter 1464: fix england

At this moment, only the United States can save Israel. The entire international community, facing the unanimous accusations of all Arab countries, Israel has been isolated unprecedentedly.

Not long after, Nixon, who was being chased and bitten by the judicial department, appeared. The two sides were still in a stalemate about the tape. From Nixon's face, it was clear that the development of the Watergate incident did not make him happy.

Kissinger understood Nixon’s difficulties, but he had to introduce the latest situation. This time the Middle East war was undoubtedly tragic. Although Israel severely damaged the Egyptian Air Force at the beginning of the war, it also dealt a huge blow to the Jordanian and Syrian air forces. kill.

But in the process, it also suffered certain losses. In addition to the subsequent fighting with the Iraqi Air Force, the Israeli Air Force lost more than one-third of its aircraft and almost lost half of its combat power.

Compared with the Arab League, Israel cannot gain an advantage in numbers, even in the air force. Israel, which has killed 300 fighter jets of the Arab League, has also paid the loss of hundreds of fighter jets. Of course, these pilots are also in bad luck The latest situation is that Su-style fighter jets of the Yemeni Air Force have appeared over the Sinai Peninsula.

Moreover, both Morocco and Libya have indicated that they will send their fighter jets to Egypt, so that the Egyptian Air Force will have fighter jets available again.

You must know that the reason why the Egyptian Air Force was beaten so badly was that most of the fighter jets were wiped out at the airport by the Israeli Air Force without taking off at all. The Egyptian Air Force had enough pilots.

As for the pilots of the Israeli Air Force, they were really lost in the air battle. Once the Egyptian Air Force gets a certain supplement, even if it is only one-third of the original, it can provide air supremacy in the Sinai Peninsula, not to mention that the Yemeni Air Force has already appeared in Sinai The peninsula battlefield, and the two giant anti-aircraft towers on the Sinai Peninsula can themselves play a role in shielding one's own army.

Not to mention, at the beginning of the war, the Egyptian air force and anti-aircraft artillery units shot down a group of Israeli invading aircraft.

After attacking Israeli aircraft at Damascus International Airport, the Syrian air force bombed airports, military installations and troop staging points in northern Israel, as well as an oil depot in the seaport. Jordan declared war on Israel immediately after Israeli planes attacked the capital Amman, and Jordanian forces shelled military positions in Israel.

The sinking of the Israeli destroyer "Eilat" put Israel's waters under blockade. Kissinger looked heavy, "Most European countries expressed their neutrality and rejected Israel's request for help." , Honorable President, only the United States can save Israel now."

After hearing Kissinger's words, Nixon wondered, "Has the situation deteriorated to this point? Israel can't hold on any longer?"

"Israel is still on the offensive, but an excellent army can't fight with firesticks, can it? The consumption of weapons in this war is astonishing, far beyond everyone's expectations." Kissinger looked solemn, " Facing the turn of many Arab countries, Israel's weapons stockpile has dropped to a horrendous level."

Kissinger said in a roundabout way that Israel is now in a situation where two fists are no match for four hands, and only the Sixth Fleet can open the route of foreign aid.

The area under the jurisdiction of the US Sixth Fleet is the Arctic Ocean, Atlantic Ocean, and Indian Ocean surrounding Europe and Africa. This is a bit vague. In fact, the main activity range of the Sixth Fleet basically coincides with the Royal Navy’s Mediterranean Fleet. It is the one that is really responsible for the security of the Atlantic Ocean. The Second Fleet of the United States, the Second Fleet is also the most powerful fleet of the US Navy.

"Can't we solve the problem by ourselves?" Nixon asked seriously. If the United States helped, the war in the Middle East would be complicated.

Kissinger shook his head heavily. European countries have already stated that they will stay out of the matter. If the United States does not take action, it will be difficult to predict the direction of the war.

"It is better for Israel to solve the problem by itself." Nixon thought for a long time, but he was still unwilling to be dragged into the water by Israel, otherwise the United States would be very passive in the face of the Arab world.

This made Kissinger a little disappointed. He is also a Jew and hopes that the United States can stand firmly behind Israel. Nixon is not saying that the United States does not care about Israel. He just hopes that Israel can solve most of the problems. Israel fixes things.

At least Israel should win in one direction so the US can help. Of course Israel thinks so, including the Israeli Prime Minister Mrs. Meir, who wants to get rid of Egypt first, get rid of Egypt's opponent, and deal with Jordan and Syria separately. The problem is that Egypt is only the air force that has been solved.

Two giant anti-aircraft towers, one south and one north, are dotted with fortress towns, like a chain, trapping the Israeli attacking forces.

Israel must now endure an environment of unstable supply lines and defeat the Egyptian forces in the Sinai Peninsula in the midst of this quagmire.

Around the city of Arish, Israel has formulated a strategy to block this supply base. Simply put, it is to surround the point to fight for aid. If Alan Wilson knew it, he would immediately think that I have the advantage.

After Nixon stated that Israel still had to fight for victory by itself, Israel had to prove itself in the Sinai Peninsula, and the doomed fierce Battle of Sinai broke out.

Egypt has 150,000 troops in the Sinai Peninsula. These troops must not hide in the fortresses and wait to be removed by Israel. The consumption of at least two armored divisions is quite astonishing. The supply of the Arish base blocks the defense of the Egyptian defenders. The long-term persistence was unfavorable, and the two sides launched a big battle around Arish.

The Sinai Peninsula has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times. In 1948, the Egyptian army entered Palestine from here. Wherever they went, the people welcomed them wholeheartedly. , still in sight.

When Egypt and Israel sent a large number of tanks for a decisive battle, the appearance of the Yemeni Air Force cast a cloud over the war. The Israeli Air Force broke out with extraordinary efficiency and rushed to the third-line battlefield, but after all, it has dealt with several opponents one after another, and both weapons and personnel are approaching the limit.

The Yemeni Air Force covered the Egyptian armored forces, which forced the Israeli Air Force to once again approach the battlefield to fight new opponents. On the ground, for the first time after the war, there was a duel between American weapons and British weapons.

After ceding the purchase of the Egyptian Air Force to France, Britain undoubtedly took over the ground weapons of the Egyptian army.

If the Egyptian Sheik and Centurion tanks lost too much, the reason was of course that the French-armed Egyptian Air Force was not effective enough to provide cover for the British tanks.

Both countries knew that this was a decisive battle. Egypt invested all the Chieftain and Centurion tanks in its hands, while Israel also invested the same number of Patton tanks. The two sides fought on the ground inextricably. The chaos in the sky is no less than that on the ground, and the intensity of the fighting between Yemen's Su-style fighter jets and Israeli Phantom fighter jets is equally eye-catching.

The flames shot up into the sky, the earth trembled, all the main guns of the tanks of the two armies roared in unison, and the muzzles spewed out angry fire, and the fire dragons shot out into the sky. Hundreds of tanks wanted to rush towards the opposite side, like a group of bison running wildly on the grassland, raising smoke and dust soaring into the sky, making a deafening roar, overwhelming the enemy army on the opposite side.

The tank guns of the rows of Emirates tanks equipped in the front line in Egypt began to fire fiercely. Lines of fire passed by, smoke and dust rose up, and the American Patton tank was not to be outdone. The ammunition that was constantly exploding, like festive fireworks, splashed around from the tank's various exits. Thick smoke emitted from the turret, and a raging fire ignited The tank was reduced to a heap of ruins.

This is a test for both sides. The fallen fighter jets and the destroyed tanks on the ground show how tragic this battle is.

"Although the two armored divisions in Egypt were annihilated, the loss of the attacking force has made our hope of occupying the entire Sinai Peninsula slim~lightnovelpub.net~ Chief of Staff Elazar met with Prime Minister Mrs. Meir and gave Mrs. Meir A question with mixed joy that Egypt has only infantry left in the Sinai peninsula, and worry that the Israeli attacking forces have also lost the ability to pull out their strongholds.

Israel does not have the manpower to attack the fortified strongholds one by one, not to mention that the heavy weapons of the Israeli attacking force also suffered heavy losses.

Defense Minister Moses Dayan also has a heavy heart. He knows what it means. The fighting in the Sinai Peninsula has reached a stalemate.

"Announce to the citizens that Egypt in the Sinai Peninsula has lost its fighting power." Mrs. Meir was briefly distraught, but immediately regained her composure, and Israel once again sent a message to the United States for help.

The plan to defeat Egypt quickly failed, although Egypt had suffered heavy losses and was unable to attack Israel. But continue according to the intensity of the war with Egypt, followed by Jordan and Syria.

Facing the eager Kissinger, Nixon fell into a long silence, "Send everything that can fly to Israel, and order the Sixth Fleet to **** and break through the waters blocked by Israel."

"Thank you, President." Kissinger was moved, and immediately went to convey Nixon's order. The United States was willing to rescue Israel, which had a great bearing on Israel's survival.

"Wait a minute, tell London that American air-to-air missiles cannot be sold to Arab countries." Nixon suddenly seemed to remember something, "tell London that the results of some military technology exchanges must be approved by Washington. Selling it is clearly inappropriate for an Arab country that is now on one of the belligerents."

At the critical moment, the current US president still hasn't forgotten his old father. He has to deal with the backing of some Arab countries. If he can't deal with the Soviet Union, he can't deal with the United Kingdom?
