As soon as the 107 rocket launcher came on stage, the situation changed instantly. The "death radius" fired by the unscrupulous cannon before was powerful and lethal.
But its impact on people's morale is still far less than the effect of a salvo of rocket launchers.
Twelve rockets were fired just now, directly destroying the reinforcements that broke in from the flank of the airport.
The originally aggressive crowd of more than a thousand people immediately turned around and ran away after being covered by rockets.
This greatly reduced the pressure on the special assault battalion, and took the opportunity to land two more Y-8s. One of them was carrying an armored vehicle, and the other was carrying a hundred soldiers.
The number of combatants in the special assault battalion suddenly increased to nearly 500.
But overall, the situation of defending the airport is still severe. The small airport is divided into three battlefields, the terminal building, the waiting hall, and the flank battlefield.
Among them, the overall situation of the terminal building has been decided, and only a few enemies are still stubbornly resisting.
The flank that had just been destroyed by the rocket launcher retreated a certain distance and was stabilized by the troops behind it. However, their morale was low and it was difficult to launch an attack.
The most difficult thing is the direction of the departure hall. Not only are there a large number of enemies, but they also have the best equipment and training. The battle situation is quite anxious.
Eagle is not satisfied with the current situation.
Looking in the direction of the departure hall at the terminal, he said in a deep voice: "Why hasn't the gunship arrived yet?"
The battalion commander of the special assault battalion is a veteran who served as the commander of a reconnaissance company in China and has a high level of tactical literacy.
According to the previous plan, the transport fleet would be covered by gunships when they landed, but now the gunships have not arrived.
Although Eagle can establish a spiritual link with Du Fei, Du Fei cannot fully control emergencies on the battlefield.
At this time, as soon as the battalion commander finished speaking, two aircraft appeared from the south of the airport. The conspicuous paintings on them were gunship aircraft.
This made everyone in Eagle feel a little relieved.
They all know the intensity of gunship firepower. With these two gunships joining the team, they will undoubtedly have a greater chance of winning.
The soldiers who were fighting below also breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the appearance of the gunship.
Immediately afterwards, another Y-8 landed, and nearly half of the people and equipment of the special assault battalion had landed.
Almost at the same time, the two gunships began pouring artillery fire on the ground.
At this time, the Siamese army besieging the airport was immediately suppressed by strong firepower, especially the vehicles parked outside the airport, armored vehicles, trucks, jeeps, as well as firepower points such as mortars and heavy machine guns, all of which were named.
The four gunships that did not appear passed directly through the urban area of Bangkok and appeared near a military airport in the north.
This is the important base of the Siam Air Force, where most of the air force's assets are parked.
Although they are all old-fashioned Yinggo and America fighter jets, they are solid jet fighters and are quite capable in terms of peripherals.
Just now, the commander of the Air Force, Bayu Jiangjun, received a call from Pumi Beng, asking him to immediately take off his fighter planes to intercept the transport fleet.
But Bayu had his own little plan.
Pumi Beng would definitely not be offended, but if he was asked to intercept those transport planes, he would be very nervous.
Because he still doesn't know who owns those planes and where they came from.
If he takes action rashly and hits someone he shouldn't, how can he explain it?
Based on his understanding of Pumi Beng, no matter how many tough people are speaking now, His Majesty will never help him when the critical moment comes.
To be able to achieve today's position, Bayu Jiangjun is certainly not a fool. He silently calculated in his heart that in this case, the plane must take off and he must go to the airport.
But what kind of plane to take off and how to fly there are all very particular.
However, not two minutes before Pumi Beng put down his phone, the phone on his desk rang again.
Bayu Jiangjun frowned and reached out to pick it up.
"Uncle Bayu~" A familiar voice came from the phone receiver, which made Bayu's heart tremble: "Are you~ Gu Dan?"
The caller was Gu Dan who had just escaped from danger. After the gunship destroyed two armored vehicles, Gu Dan was finally out of danger. With lingering fears in his heart, he met Ying Nadu and used Ta Nong's prestige and his family's influence in the military camp.
Nepotism quickly stabilized the situation.
Speaking of which, Gu Dan had to thank Munado for his smooth resumption of control of Soka Military Camp.
If Munado hadn't stubbornly insisted on killing Gu Dan and were bombarded by gunships along with the king's envoy, Gu Dan would not have been so smooth if only one of these two people was alive.
According to the plan formulated in Kuching, Gu Dan carried out general mobilization as soon as he took control of the military camp, released more than 3,000 people in the military camp from the barracks, and delivered a painful speech in public.
According to the classic script from ancient times, a treacherous minister appeared around the king, deceived his majesty, and framed the loyal general.
Now it’s time to show up to Qingjun!
Gu Dan also knows that playing only the emotion card is useful but not much, so he can just serve hard food.
Counting each soldier present, the departure fee is US$500 per person, and for three thousand people, it is US$1.5 million.
In this day and age, five hundred dollars is not a small amount of money, and many soldiers have never seen a dollar in their entire lives.
I only heard that those green banknotes are very valuable. Five hundred dollars is enough to buy a decent house in a not-so-central part of Bangkok.
As soon as he heard this, he immediately became excited and shouted, "Long live Master Gu Dan", and his morale level suddenly increased.
Gu Dan couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief and looked up towards the airport in the distance.
You can't see the fighting at Bangkok Airport here, you can only hear the faint sound of fierce gunfire.
Gu Danzhuan took another breath, knowing that now was not the time to relax.
Next, we must deal with the Bayu Jiang Army of the Air Force.
In Bangkok, although the air force's strength is weak, it is precisely the key to determining the success of their plan.
If the air force risked its lives to attack the transport fleet, even if the air raid succeeded, it would definitely suffer heavy losses.
That's not what Du Fei wants. What Du Fei wants is a clean and complete victory.
In this battle, Siam's air force did not need to be present.
That's why I made this phone call.
"Uncle Bayu..." Gu Dan showed respect to Bayu Jiangjun and said, "You must know about my father."
Bayu Jiangjun responded, guessing Gu Dan's purpose of making this call, thinking quickly in his mind, weighing the pros and cons.
What Gu Dan said next surprised Bayu Jiangjun. He originally thought that Gu Dan would set out conditions with him, discuss bargaining chips, and discuss pros and cons.
Who knew that when Gu Dan opened his mouth, it turned out to be another thing that seemed completely incompatible at first glance: "Uncle Bayu, my second daughter and your youngest son are middle school classmates..."
Bayu Jiangjun was stunned. It was not surprising that they were classmates, because there were only two aristocratic schools in Bangkok. There was a high probability that they, the children of powerful people, were classmates when they came and went.
What does it mean when Gu Dan suddenly mentioned this?
Gu Dan did not play riddles and continued: "The two of them have known each other for a long time. I think they are good people and want to get married to you."
Only then did Bayu Jiangjun react, and his eyes lit up.
Although Gu Dan calls him uncle, it seems that their children are of different generations, but that is not a problem at all for marriage.
Bayu Jiangjun composed himself and confirmed: "Is this true?"
Gu Dan said: "This is a lifelong event for your children, how can you joke~"
Bayu Jiangjun's breathing quickened slightly. He understood that Gu Dan's proposal was not just as simple as a marriage between two families, but to admit him into the interest group originally established by other farmers.
This was an opportunity he had wanted to join before but never dreamed of.
Although Tha Nong is dead now, Than Nong Group is facing a huge crisis, which he would have avoided under normal circumstances.
But just now, Pumi Beng's phone call and dozens of large planes in the sky showed that Gu Dan had received strong external support.
Bayu began to lean toward Gu Dan, but he still had not made a final decision.
But at this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door outside.
Bayu Jiangjun frowned, pressed the phone receiver with his hand, and shouted "come in".
A good-looking female secretary in uniform pushed the door in and said with a panicked look on her face: "Sir, hurry up! Look outside!"
Bayu Jiangjun immediately pressed the microphone and came to the window.
I saw four planes painted with vicious sea beasts flying over from a distance.
Still some distance away from the air force base, the turret at the tail of the aircraft opened fire, aiming at the runway, bombing them indiscriminately.
Bayu Jiangjun immediately realized that these planes were the same as those previous transport planes.
People had long been prepared for his fighter planes to take off and directly destroy the runway, making it impossible for him to fly.
Bayu Jiangjun was still frightened, but he also saw that the other party acted in a measured manner. The firepower was concentrated on the airport runway and did not affect the aircraft parked nearby, nor did it open fire on the nearby hangar.
The runway is destroyed and can be repaired, but these planes are damaged and it will take a lot of damage.
Bayu Jiangjun immediately put the phone to his ear.
Gu Dan's voice came from inside: "Uncle Bayu, I heard something coming from your side. It should be that our plane has arrived. Don't worry, I have told them that you are one of our own, so don't damage the plane."
Bayu Jiangjun took a deep breath and heard the implication. If it weren't for one of his own people, the planes at the airport would definitely be gone.
Now he has to make a choice, friend or foe?
This is not a problem at all. Bayu Jiangjun said: "I think your proposal is very good. It's time for young people to talk about marriage."
Over the phone, Gu Dan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, he was far less determined in his heart than he appeared on the surface. If Bayu refused and remained loyal to Pumi Beng, it would be very difficult for him and Du Fei.
Even if the gunship destroys the runway and even knocks out all the planes in the base, the Air Force still has fighters elsewhere.
Bayu Jiang's army can immediately order to take off, and reinforcements can arrive within an hour at most.
Now is the best result.
Furthermore, after Thanon's death, although Gu Dan used Du Fei's support to stabilize the Sokha military camp, how much of the forces left by Thanon will he ultimately be able to absorb?
Gu Dan felt unsure.
As the saying goes, people’s hearts are unpredictable~
The farmers died, and no one could say what the remaining people were thinking.
After all, Du Fei is an outsider. Gu Dan and Du Fei must both cooperate and guard against each other, especially since he returned to Bangkok and took control of Sokha Military Camp and gained some leverage.
Therefore, he needs an ally.
Bayu Jiangjun just meets all the conditions for being his ally. He is of age and seniority. Although the air force is weak, it is nominally equal to the army and sea, so Bayu Jiangjun naturally has a certain prestige.
In addition, what Gu Dan is interested in is the "weakness" of Bayu Jiangjun.
An ally with high prestige but not strong strength is his best choice at this stage.
Really critical decisions often don't require long-term thinking. In this case, the two hit it off.
…
On the other side, Pumi Beng in the palace became more and more anxious and his face became more and more ugly.
From time to time, I looked in the direction of the air force base, hoping to see planes taking off over there.
The reality is that we have not seen any planes appear for a long time. Instead, we have received bad news from the airport one after another.
First, the plan to retake the terminal failed, and the outflanking troops suffered heavy losses, and then they were crushed by the gunships.
There is simply no good news.
"Damn it, what is this idiot Bayu doing!" Pumi Beng cursed through gritted teeth. Now if the Air Force fighter jets can appear in time, many problems can be solved.
But at this moment, there was a rapid knock on the door outside his study.
Pumi Beng frowned and said angrily, "Come in."
A young man in military uniform came in and whispered: "Your Majesty~"
Pumi Beng took a look and adjusted his mood a little. He knew very well that as a superior, he could not be influenced by his emotions. He had to be calm when encountering anything. At least he looked calm.
But after hearing the next words, Pumi Beng couldn't calm down: "What are you talking about! The airport was destroyed and our fighter planes can't take off?"
The young man pursed his lips and nodded, then said bravely: "Bayu Jiangjun said that the situation is quite critical and hopes to get support..."
"Trash!" Pumi shouted angrily, and was so angry that he gasped for breath.
Support, support, support, what kind of support does he need!
Now it seems that there is no hope for the Air Force, and Munado still has not sent back any news. This is what makes Pumi Beng more and more uneasy.
At the same time, the sound of gunfire coming from the direction of the airport made him even more uneasy.
Pumi was very worried and knew that she could not sit still and wait for death.
The current situation was completely beyond his plan. Thanong's death not only failed to achieve his goal, but also brought unforeseen dangers.
He must make changes now, or in other words, he must find a way to protect himself. If anything changes, the palace's more than 300 guards cannot be counted on.
…
On the other side, the battle at the airport has come to an end.
As all twenty-four Yun-8s landed, the entire special assault battalion totaled more than 1,100 people, plus various light and heavy equipment, as well as two gunships in the air. The Siamese troops that had besieged the airport before were no match at all.
.
Du Fei stepped off the plane, wearing a green half-sleeve shirt without military rank, a toad mirror, and a smile on his face.
Cixin followed closely behind him. In order to cooperate with this operation, Cixin also changed his uniform, wearing a camouflage uniform, black high-top boots, and his long hair tied into a ponytail, swaying behind him.
However, at Metta's current state, no matter what she wears, she can't hide her otherworldly aura, which is incompatible with her surroundings.
As the battlefield began to be cleaned in the terminal hall, Eagle and several chief officers of the special assault battalion came to Du Fei, stood at attention, saluted and shouted "report"!
Du Fei stood still with a smile, nodded and said: "Comrades, you performed very well this time. Your combat effectiveness exceeded my expectations."
This is not a mere statement, but the performance of the Special Assault Battalion indeed exceeded Du Fei's expectations.
When he originally formed this team, Du Fei didn't expect them to be able to compete with one against ten. After all, they only took a short time to form and the equipment was pretty good, but compared with the US speed, it was just like that.
Unexpectedly, facing an enemy several times their own this time, the special assault battalion's performance in terms of combat quality and fighting will was remarkable.
The next step is to consolidate the position and wait for the follow-up troops.
Just after Du Fei got off the plane, the Y-8 planes that had landed earlier began to take off and return to Kuching.
The range of these aircraft is more than 6,000 kilometers, and there is still enough room to fly back and forth from Kuching to Bangkok. They can take off directly without maintenance and refueling.
Du Fei's plan for this operation is not small. Just these more than a thousand people are not enough, and additional troops will be added in the future.
According to the plan, occupying the airport is only the first step. In the next dozen hours, at least 10,000 people will be transported from Kuching.
In order to achieve this goal, Du Fei commandeered almost all the fruit transport aircraft flying to the Middle East from Kuching, a total of forty-eight aircraft, divided into two waves.
The first wave is the most dangerous and difficult.
Responsible for surprise attacks, delivering special assault battalions, and occupying airports.
Within an hour, the second wave of transport planes arrived.
This time, the twenty-four Yun-8s carried all infantry and no large vehicles. There were 2,500 people in total. It was only after piling up the troops that they felt confident.
Subsequently, the first batch of transport planes returned, refueled in Kuching, and picked up the third batch of infantry, also 2,500 people, which will arrive seven hours later.
These two thousand and five hundred people did not belong to Du Fei, but he got them from Lin Tiansheng.
What is a friend and which one is a brother? It’s not about talking about it. The one who remembers it when there is meat and invites him to have a bite together is a brother.
This time Li Yuanchao has already participated, how can Lin Tiansheng be excluded~
Call Lin Tiansheng on board, share the benefits together, and bear the risks together.
For Du Fei, the pressure at home is much less.
Not only that, Du Fei has further plans in the future.
On the airport, the areas damaged by mortars have been filled in.
As a Y-8 took off, it formed a formation over the airport and flew over downtown Bangkok again.
After seeing this scene for the second time, people were somewhat mentally prepared. They were still wondering where these big planes came from?
However, at this moment, the second batch of transport planes arrived.
Encountering the returning fleet made people in the city below see an even more shocking scene.
A total of forty-eight Y-8 transport planes, two large fleets, met in the air. The one on the east was returning south, and the one on the west was just arriving and full of soldiers.
If the second batch of flights is delayed for a while and arrives again after the first batch has flown away, people may wonder why they just left and then turned around and came back? They are just playing in circles in the sky~
There is no such misunderstanding now.
Nearly fifty transport planes carrying a load of twenty tons gathered in the sky. The scene was too shocking.
At this time, many staff and officials of foreign history museums in Siam were standing outside or by the windows, looking up at the sky.
There were also many people taking photos with their cameras.
Some of them were completely confused, while others recognized that these aircraft were models produced by Huaguo.
He couldn't help but frown.
In less than two hours, the second batch of Y-8s landed at the airport, and more than 2,000 special assault battalions gathered together. Du Fei suddenly had more troops at hand.
Standing behind the floor-to-ceiling windows of the terminal, watching the planes land and take off, and the soldiers gathering on the tarmac, Du Fei felt quite comfortable. He looked outside, turned his head slightly and said, "Contact Gu Dan to start the second plan."
Eagle stood up slightly, said "yes", and immediately went to execute it.
Du Fei turned back and continued to look at the airport below. This time he not only wanted to help Gu Dan get revenge, but in Du Fei's plan, he wanted more.
…
At the same time, in the Soka military camp, Gu Dan frowned and looked up at the sky.
Next to him were Yinadu and Thasin, as well as his cousin Doan, who was originally the commander of the tank company, but was now promoted to become the battalion commander.
"Master Gu Dan, what's wrong?" Ying Nadu keenly sensed that Gu Dan's mood was not right.
No one who can be a secretary to a big leader has a simple role.
The corners of Gu Dan's mouth tightened, indicating that it was nothing, and he asked again: "Gather our people as soon as possible and follow me to save His Majesty the King."
Ying Nadu responded, then raised his head and glanced at the fleet of aircraft in the sky that had gone away.
He knew it was definitely not nothing, and the key to the problem lay on the planes that just flew over.
But Gu Dan didn't say anything, and he didn't ask any more questions.
This time Gu Dan was able to stage the return of the king, and Ying Nadu took the greatest credit.
But at this time, Yingnadu knew that he had to be more cautious and not get carried away.
Otherwise, Gu Dan's next target will be him.
Ying Nadu didn't have much confidence, and he never thought about replacing Gu Dan. He didn't have the ability or the background.
Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that his and Gu Dan's interests are consistent.
As for Gu Dan, he did not want to disclose it because he did not know that there was a second batch of transport fleets.
Du Fei's plan previously revealed was to use a special assault battalion to raid the airport. At the same time, he returned to the Soka Military Camp to control the forces here. The two sides would attack from both sides and attack the palace quickly.
Obviously Du Fei did not tell the complete truth.
After occupying the airport, there will be follow-up troop projection, which will be at least one to two thousand people.
Gu Dan even expected that there would be more additional troops in the future.
If there are only a thousand people, no matter how elite they are, they cannot change the overall situation in Siam.
But what if there are 10,000 people?
Gu Dan couldn't help but gulped. He didn't understand what Du Fei was going to do.
Is it necessary to occupy Siam? But he denied it with just a fleeting thought. This was simply impossible.
Although Siam is not a big country, it still has tens of millions of people. The country has lasted for hundreds of years, so it is not easy to rule.
Not to mention Du Fei's strength, whether America is strong or not depends on how many years she has been fighting in South Vietnam.
Moreover, the current rules are not the same as those before World War II. Whoever has a bigger fist can grab territory everywhere.
Even if Du Fei really has any ideas, America and Su Lian, who set the rules, will jump out first.
Gu Dan thought about it over and over again, but he was still confused.
Little did he know that Du Fei's game of chess was bigger than he imagined, and he knew how to use the rules better.
At the same time that the second batch of transport planes arrived in Siam, several telegrams with similar contents appeared on the desks in front of Subian, Li Jing, and the old man who controlled Malay.
Subian looked at the telegram playfully, feeling very complicated.
He originally thought that he had reached an agreement with Du Fei before, selling his orthodoxy to Du Fei in exchange for Du Fei's support.
After Du Fei gets the orthodoxy, he can't wait to attack the eastern part of Yinni.
Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, Du Fei's hand reached Siam!
The content of this telegram was concise and to the point, saying that Siam's lawful leader of the Thanonjang Army had been assassinated by Zhengji, and there was turmoil in the country.
In the spirit of humanitarianism, at the request of the Siamese military authorities, the Nanyang Weihe Force was formed to enter Siam to maintain peace and ensure the safety of civilians' lives and property.
After this set of rhetoric, Du Fei asked him to send at least 500 people.
Although it was not an order, it was not discussed with him. These five hundred people must come out and join the Nanyang Weihe Army.
The corner of Subian's mouth curled up, and his mind turned slightly to figure out the pros and cons.
The so-called Nanyang Prestige Force, to put it bluntly, means that the law does not punish the public.
Du Fei was working alone in Siam, and he was under too much pressure from all parties. He wanted to recruit more people, and everyone could share the burden, and he could also get some benefits.
Moreover, Subian had read the history of flowers and fruits, and knew the allusion of Duke Huan of Qi that "one country can unite the world, and nine princes can unite".
This time, I want Du Fei to build this coercive force and solidify his reputation as the Little Bull of Nanyang.
Influence recognized by all parties in the region.
Subian scraped his lower lip with his teeth and made a tut-tsk sound.
To be honest, from the bottom of his heart, he didn't want Du Fei to get his wish.
But starting from reality, given his current situation, following Du Fei is undoubtedly the safest and most affordable choice.
Go out and be the boss. In addition to being able to fight, you also have to lead your younger brothers to enjoy the good times.
If you eat bran every day, you will still be a lone wolf no matter how good you are.
Therefore, whenever someone is invited to go out on this trip, Du Fei will definitely take them to eat meat together.
And Subian was sure that he was not the only one who received this telegram at this time.
As he thought, it was Lijiapo, 900 kilometers northwest of him.
Li Jing saw a telegram with similar content, but the requested number of troops was smaller, only 200 men were enough.
Li Jing licked his lips. He had guessed before that Du Fei sent destroyers to sink five Siamese ships.
But I didn't expect that it would be so big, and it would penetrate people's hearts, and it would actually succeed!
Yesterday, Li Jing learned of the sudden death of his farmer.
He had a very keen sense of smell, and he realized at that time that something big was going to happen, but he never expected that Gu Dan would drag Du Fei into the situation.
What to do now, send troops or not?
Li Jing rubbed his temples and said to himself: "I really have a headache~"
This is not a multiple-choice question.
Du Fei's urinary nature was quite clear to him.
What happened to the Yingguo people last time, so what if the subsequent governor and fleet commander were killed.
Now Du Fei is sending him a telegram to give him face. If he doesn't answer it, maybe everything will be fine now, but what about the future~
Li Jing thought about it again and again and made a decision...
