British Civil Servant

v2 Chapter 1584: Occupy the Presidential Palace

The landing force in La Plata consisted of two parts, the Nepalese mercenaries, and the Rhodesian armored brigade, because to some extent the Zambezi River is equivalent to a boundary river for Rhodesia.

Therefore, the Rhodesian Armed Forces itself is equipped with a large number of amphibious combat vehicles. The technology of the amphibious combat vehicles they are equipped with is derived from the turtle amphibious vehicles built in the United Kingdom during World War II.

To put it bluntly, the turtle amphibious vehicle is not used by the UK itself, and the indicators are generally not a big problem, but like many weapons, it has lost to similar weapons in the United States. The worst is the scale.

So after the end of the World War, the whereabouts of the turtle amphibious vehicle became a problem. After Alan Wilson left one for an exhibition, he began to sell these bereaved dogs.

The turtle amphibious vehicle disappeared in the British mainland, and it became an important reliance on Grace's armed forces, and they continued to improve it themselves.

The Royal Rhodesian Armored Brigade in the turtle amphibious vehicle, just behind the Nepalese mercenaries in the landing craft, began to sprint to La Plata Beach.

A landing force of 15,000 people from two brigades successfully landed in La Plata under the cover of the Royal Air Force, especially the sense of security brought by the main guns of the guided missile battleship.

Sometimes I have to admit that cannons are more intuitive than missiles. When faced with straight barrels, Argentine soldiers are unwilling to try the power of British main guns with their flesh and blood.

"The control of the city is handed over to the Nepalese, and our goal is Buenos Aires." Colonel Albert could not wait to reveal his eyes, carrying out the integrity of an obedient son. Can't take off the body armor, and he's going to do it.

The task of clearing out La Plata's Argentine stragglers is not in his favor. The future star of the British Army now has only one goal, to launch an assault on Buenos Aires.

There is no doubt that a ground war is about to kick off. Even if it is a ground war, Britain must practice the core of air-ground battle. The cover of the Mountbatten guided missile battleship will stop here. If it continues to move forward, it may face Unseen threats, maybe mines.

The Tiger gunships that took off from the Centaur-class aircraft carrier, and the Royal Air Force jointly undertook the task of covering the advance of the ground forces and clearing the obstacles of the Argentine ground forces along the way.

At this time, the Argentine soldiers fighting at home can no longer be expected to make the choice of knowing the current affairs as the hero, just like their compatriots in the Falkland Islands who are isolated overseas.

After all, local operations are different from overseas operations. For the Argentine Army, which has been bombed for a month and has transformed into a purely ground armed force, armed helicopters are an out-and-out killer.

Just like Saddam's army was passively beaten in the desert, Argentina, which is a plain, is also a favorite battlefield for armed helicopter groups. No matter where it is, it is better than Southeast Asia with deep valleys and dense forests.

At the same time that La Plata made progress, Mar del Plata and other British armed forces at other landing points also successfully landed. There is only one ship on the Admiral Mountbatten, which has been assigned to a large landing site. Troops at other landing sites do not have this Conditions, but three-dimensional airborne, using helicopters to go around the back has been practiced when retaking the Falkland Islands, and it is not a problem for other landing troops.

The Royal Air Force naturally maintained a high frequency of bombing to create conditions for the landing troops. At the same time, it also carried out distributed airdrops behind the landing points to create the illusion that Argentina was surrounded.

Argentina is located in Latin America and is completely the rear of the free world. The country's military system is far from that of European countries. The Argentine government believes that Britain will attack Buenos Aires. The previous bombing seems to confirm this, but In fact, the British made a feint and went straight to Buenos Aires. Although the other fleet was huge, they were all empty ships that had been unloaded and were recruited to make false information.

According to the previous plan, the Seventh Armored Division was actually going to land here.

Buenos Aires is the capital of Argentina, and it is also a coastal city. Coastal cities naturally have weaknesses, that is, they are not safe. The simplest point is that coastal cities must have one side facing the sea. It only needs to be surrounded by three sides, and it is impossible for people to live in the sea.

The landing force at the Port of Mar del Plata is farther away from Buenos Aires. The landing force here is from Malaya. It is composed of soldiers from two major ethnic groups, almost two groups fighting on the other side of the earth. It is impossible for the troops to stare at each other like they usually do. The Argentines don't care whether they are intimate or not.

After the Nanyang Armored Brigade landed, it was going to conduct a roundabout outflank, so I didn't dare to delay. This armored brigade mainly composed of Chinese soldiers is a heavily armed force. The Centurion tank is a little inferior, but the weapons of the Argentine Army are still Not as good as a centurion.

Under normal circumstances, even if the army's status in an ordinary country is not important, it should have enough voice.

Even in the United States, there is still the Marine Corps as a stepping stone, but the entire America has a leading brother like the United States as an example, and other countries naturally follow suit. After zero years, the Argentine Army has no combat experience.

Even the steel helmets of the Argentine Army were produced and installed after being authorized by the United States. This is like the operation of Chang Gong's German helmet master pretending to be a German armorer.

Except for the troops at these two landing sites, the 7th Armored Division, which was transferred from the Laiyin Group Army before the war and had high hopes, did not move, and was still floating at sea at this time.

The Expeditionary Army Command has been thinking for a long time, but it still can't let this ace unit take risks. This is the ace unit stationed in Germany, and it can't be dispatched until other units have good news.

Knowing that the landing operation had already started, Alan Wilson, who was far away in London, was restless. The ground war was different from others, and there would definitely be casualties. He didn't know that the 7th Armored Division was decided to wait. At this time, there were only two troops composed of overseas subjects participating in the ground combat. Ten kilometers of two paratroop battalions.

He needs to know that his sons have all joined the war, and the Expeditionary Force Command still has a hand at the critical moment. He will definitely go to the Ministry of National Defense and strangle Peng Yingwu, the chief of the national defense staff. If it weren't for Marshal Mountbatten, you can be the chief of the national defense staff, and you will repay us in this way. House's?

The prime minister, who got rid of the sluggish approval rating for the time being, also saw that the cabinet secretary was absent-minded, and asked, "Are you worried about the current war situation?"

"I'm also worried about my son's safety. These two points don't conflict." Alan Wilson dragged his head with one hand and smiled weakly. "What happened to Albert, Pamela may divorce me."

Isn't that better? Although Mrs. Thatcher thought so, she immediately felt that it was wrong to think so, but she had no good words, "You are really willing to let your child go to the front line."

"You thought I was you, and let your children hide away." Alan Wilson squinted at the Iron Lady, and replied bluntly, "To be honest, I have always doubted the loyalty of the Conservative Party to the United Kingdom. The Labor Party cannot really The surrender to the Soviet Union, the Conservative Party to the United States, is really not sure."

you? Mrs. Thatcher wanted to refute, but she couldn't talk about who made the cabinet secretary really send her children to the front.

From the perspective of the difference between the inside and outside of the Expeditionary Force Headquarters, and the command left behind, the concern of the supreme authority is justified. He doesn't know now, but he will know it a day later. Sitting in front of Marshal Peng Yingwu, Chief of the British Defense Staff, He didn't speak or leave, just staring at the No. 1 military figure and thinking about life.

"The Seventh Armored Division has already landed today. Always wait and see." Marshal Peng Yingwu explained uncomfortably. After all, Buenos Aires is the capital of Argentina, so it is normal to think carefully.

Marshal Peng Yingwu did not explain that the reason why the 7th Armored Division was dispatched again was because Buenos Aires was already in chaos. After the war burned to the mainland, the Argentines could no longer behave calmly like before. By the looks of it, news came that the landing forces at the Puerto de la Plata and Mar del Plata had begun their march towards Buenos Aires.

The citizens of this Argentine capital and the largest city are also full of worries. After all, there are only a few citizens who dare to stay in the war zone. Seeing that their homes will be in the midst of war, even the citizens of the capital know that they are not proud of their chests now. Sometimes, it's the right thing to do.

The chaos in Buenos Aires was clearly seen by the British Air Force who was reconnaissance from the air. What are you waiting for if you don't land at this time?

However, compared with other troops that had already landed a day ago ~lightnovelpub.net~ The action of the 7th Armored Division is already late, safety is safety now, Buenos Aires is already in a mess, but this kind of The chaos disrupted the 7th Armored Division's advance route, and they couldn't shoot indiscriminately at the citizens who were like headless chickens.

"I've already seen the Argentine flag in the Rose Palace." Albert was wearing a helmet and staring ahead with binoculars.

The extra day allowed him to be in the most advantageous position ahead of other troops. At this time, his mood was like that of the German soldiers who saw the top of the Kremlin in 1941.

The Rhodesian Armored Brigade achieved brilliant results in one day. Under the cover of the Tiger helicopter gunship, it killed nearly 100 Argentine officers and soldiers and captured 5,500 people at the same time. They marched all the way to Buenos Aires. There is only one last step left in the Long March. As long as his troops raise the Union Jack over the Argentine Presidential Palace, the war will be brought to a successful conclusion.

"If it doesn't work, I can burn it." Albert knew that it was not too late, and ordered the storming of the Argentine presidential palace. The battle at the presidential palace was far less intense than imagined. Two hours later, the Union flag was raised in the Rose Palace. As for the important officials of the military government including Galtieri, I don't know where they went.
