Issam actually knew very well that compared with Lanfang's national strength, the gap between Najd and Lanfang was indeed a bit big. 23us.
Fastest update
However, Issam never imagined that the gap would be so huge. It was simply a despairing gap.
While the Najd soldiers were still racking their brains for a meal of dried meat, the Lanfang people's logistics supply was already so complete and systematic; while the Najd army was still using camels as transportation, the Lanfang soldiers were already in the sky
Zhonghangxiang, when Najd's army can reach the level of Lanfang's army, God knows how far Lanfang's army has reached.
When the country is poor and weak, people without ambition will just follow the crowd and wait to die. But as long as they have a little bit of ambition, they will set a goal and work hard to become stronger, but when this goal seems to be out of reach
Sometimes, no matter how determined you are, it will feel like you are powerless.
Issam really feels this despair now.
When material conditions are out of reach, spiritual power will dominate. It may be under such circumstances that man's victory over nature was born.
All Issam can do is to try his best to show the strength of the Najd people, which may in some way make the Lanfang people take Najd more seriously.
In the next two days, Lanfang's endless tricks made Isam feel a shock to his soul again.
No matter how fast the Najd army moves, the Lanfang people will always use airdrops to send supplies to the Najd army when the Najd army is resting.
The supplies cover almost all aspects, from food to simple medicines to replacement clothes. Kangaroo also sent each Najd soldier a backpack, which is the standard three-day special attack backpack of Lanfang Army.
This made almost all the Najd soldiers overjoyed. Even Isam and Ogbai couldn't help but want one each.
Kangaroos can do more than just airdrop.
About fifty kilometers away from Amman, Issam and the others finally encountered resistance from the Jordanians.
It can be seen that the Jordanians are also fighting to the death. Waiting in front of Najd's army is also a camel cavalry, and it is also equipped with a firepower position equipped with artillery and heavy machine guns.
If it were in the past, Issam and the others were not afraid of the Jordanians. Cavalry with camels and cavalry without camels were completely different things. Issam and the others could completely use their mobility to bypass the frontal defense of the Jordanians and attack from the side or behind.
Attack the Jordanians, thereby dismantling the Jordanian defensive positions.
But it's impossible now. Issam and the others don't have camels. This is a cavalry that has lost its mobility. All they can rely on is their own legs. In the soft desert, they can use human legs to maneuver around.
, this is tantamount to asking for death.
Just when Issam and the others were preparing to fight to the death, the kangaroo flew over again. This time the kangaroo acted not as an angel, but as the god of death.
When the kangaroo flew over the Jordanian position and dropped a series of small black dots, Ogbai even screamed: No, it was thrown wrong, we are here
Ogbai quickly shut up. What the kangaroo dropped this time was not a parachute, but a string of bombs. When the flames and smoke enveloped the Jordanian position, all Issam and the others could do was clean up the battlefield.
The entire attack process only lasted about five minutes, or three minutes, or of course it could have been half an hour. In short, Isam had no concept of time, and the only thing that was going through his mind was: How could this happen? Why could this happen?
When the smoke cleared, the Jordanian position was beyond recognition. At least 2,000 Jordanian cavalry were killed by high-explosive bombs and incendiary bombs, and nearly 3,000 Jordanian cavalry were seriously injured. They will be killed in the next few hours.
They died miserably while tossing and wailing. The Najd people had no medical ability to save these poor guys. Even if they had it, Issam would not use it on these Jordanians.
The originally seemingly impenetrable defensive position was in ruins. The artillery provided by the British was blown to pieces, and the heavy machine guns were disassembled into parts. The Jordanians had no defense against air strikes, and spare ammunition was stored in the open air.
, the result was a massive explosion, and all the gunners and machine gunners were killed.
This position composed of nearly 10,000 Jordanian cavalry was originally intended to be filled by Issam and others at the cost of human lives. However, the Lanfang Air Force only used one air strike to disintegrate all will to resist.
Not bad, at least Isam and Ogbai both have a camel as a means of transportation.
During the rest of the trip, no matter how Ogbai provoked the topic, Isam lost interest in chatting. He lowered his head and sat on the back of the camel thinking about his own thoughts, without any joy of victory. Even
After arriving in Amman, Kangaroo airborne artillery and command vehicles again, and Issam was not surprised at all.
Issam is already numb. Even if the kangaroo throws Allah down now, Issam will not be surprised.
In fact, Issam believed that His Majesty the King in Lanfang might be God himself.
Just as Issam and others were preparing to launch an attack on Amman, Chen Kangjian and Zhou Hongguang were assessing the effectiveness of the kangaroo support.
Zhou Hongguang is Lanfang's air force commander. In fact, according to the task of providing logistical support to the Najd army, there is no need for Zhou Hongguang to come to Baling, Beirut to take command. Zhou Hongguang came to Baling for other tasks. The air force will
Providing logistical support to the Najd army is regarded as an exercise. In Zhou Hongguang's words, the Lanfang Air Force is practicing on the war between Najd and Jordan, in order to accumulate more experience and prepare for more important wars in the future.
This gave Zhou Hongguang a reason to go to Baling in person.
With Zhou Hongguang's personal command, the entire Lanfang Air Force attaches great importance to this support operation. Zhou Hongguang sits at the headquarters to coordinate the overall situation. Dou Yongyi leads the team and is personally responsible for the support operation. Of course, Dou Yongyi feels that the fly in the ointment is that the Jordanians do not have an air force.
With this organization, the Air Force's fighter units have no chance to show off their skills, which makes Dou Yongyi quite regretful.
The feedback has arrived. The artillery we airdropped is basically fine. The ten assembled 75mm infantry cannons are all intact. Of course, this is related to the fact that the airdropped ground is in a desert area and the ground is relatively soft. The airdropped Bulldog and Matador are also fine.
Basically, it can be driven. Only one Matador had a problem with its water tank. After simple repairs, the problem was eliminated. There was something wrong with the airdropped Stalker. There were five Stalkers in total. One of them had a serious problem with its suspension system and was unable to move.
One Stalker's road wheel came loose, and repairs are being stepped up. Another Stalker's parachute fell off during the airdrop, and it crashed into the sand dunes. The Najd people were still digging out. When Dou Yongyi reported, the Stalker's face looked a little stinky.
It's not a problem. Five vehicles were airdropped and three were damaged. The problem is quite serious.
It's not basically in line with expectations. The airdrop of the Stalker was originally a temporary additional project, so it's normal for it to fail. Zhou Hongguang doesn't care. It would be a fool if everything goes smoothly.
The result is that only fifty transport aircraft are needed to provide complete logistics for the infantry of two divisions. Chen Kangjian rubbed his chin in thought.
The Lanfang Air Force provided logistical support to the Najd Army. It was true that it only used fifty transport aircraft. Of course, the number of sorties was a bit too many, with an average of a little more than six sorties per aircraft.
It also depends on the distance and the type of infantry. If our transport plane takes off from Baling, of course there is no problem, but if it takes off from the Alka plane, it is estimated that the number of sorties will be dispatched. Zhou Hongguang looked at the report in his hand without looking up.
The expression on his face was still satisfied.
The Lanfang Air Force also put a lot of thought into this exercise. Although the destination of the airdrop was the same, the Najd Army in Jordan, the transport planes took off from different airports. The farthest one took off from Djibouti Airport, which is more than two kilometers away from Jordan.
After completing their mission, these aircraft were unable to fly back to Djibouti due to insufficient fuel and had to land at Baling Airport.
The airdrop still exposed some shortcomings. When airdropping from Djibouti Airport to Jordan, two planes deviated from the route because the kangaroos were equipped with radios. In the end, the airdrop was successfully completed, and another plane took off from Alka.
Then something went wrong. Fortunately, the pilot was experienced and the plane made an emergency landing. The pilot had no physical problems, but the plane itself was seriously damaged.
Strictly speaking, it is not a very serious problem. If it is exposed now, it will be corrected in time. Generally speaking, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
We need to conduct more exercises like this. Anyway, it only consumes gasoline, and we have plenty of them in Lanfang. Chen Kangjian has ideas and is prepared to continue such exercises.
It consumes more than just gasoline, it also causes damage to the aircraft itself. Our aircraft also have a life limit. Zhou Hongguang is not against it, but he just wants to remind Chen Kangjian not to act recklessly.
With Chen Kangjian's character, if there were no restrictions, Chen Kangjian could make this kind of exercise a daily routine. Zhou Hongguang did not have time to play with Chen Kangjian. Logistics and supplies were indeed important, but for Zhou Hongguang, this was only part of the air force's functions.
If you don't play with me, I'll play by myself. Give me some planes and I'll get an Army Aviation Corps. Chen Kangjian has a big appetite.
Don't even think about it. Zhou Hongguang refused without leaving any room. Even Dou Yongyi next to him glared at Chen Kangjian.
This is poaching in person, how can anyone tolerate it?
Lao Yong, you see you are just a wing leader in the Air Force. Why don't you come to our Army Aviation Corps and I will make you the commander of the Army Aviation Corps. Chen Kangjian is not afraid. It is obvious that there is no shadow of it, but he says it is a certainty.
Chen Kangjian, please calm me down and Zhou Hongguang will get very angry right away.
