The rise of great powers: starting from military industry
Chapter 522 War
Anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft guns opened fire like a rainstorm.
The bright flames from the muzzles instantly illuminated the entire position, and dense fire points like meteors cut through the night sky and instantly covered a large area of the sky.
Suddenly, with a "boom~", a dazzling flash flashed across the sky, and a loud noise came, as if the entire sky was illuminated in an instant.
The burning figure of an American plane appeared in the night sky, and the burning fireball of the plane exploded and the rising smoke mixed together. I saw that the fireball exploded in the air where it rose, and the fragments flew across. The tail of the plane had been blown off, and the fuselage drew an arc in the air, and then fell to the ground like a meteor.
"Keep firing, shoot down the American devils!"
In the fierce artillery sound, one soldier after another shouted loudly.
Another explosion sounded, and in a flash, a fireball exploded directly in the air, and another F-4 fighter was hit. The anti-aircraft gun followed and fired in the direction of the fire. The plane hit by the shells was torn into pieces, and it continued to explode and decompose in the air.
Flashes of light flashed by, and various SAM missiles on the ground opened fire, and missiles rose into the air and rushed towards the fleet. The fighter jets immediately began to dodge in the air, but some planes were still caught off guard and hit.
In the city, those camouflaged Type 80 self-propelled anti-aircraft guns kept firing shells.
And the camouflaged "Aegis" air defense missile system also fired from time to time.
After firing, they moved their positions.
And every time they hit an aircraft, it represented a considerable bonus.
It was a very risky thing for the mercenaries to stay in Libya.
After the Type 80 self-propelled anti-aircraft guns and "Aegis" air defense missile systems fired shells and missiles, they were replenished.
There were also Libyan soldiers hiding in a corner of the city, holding "Vanguard" portable air defense missiles in their hands, and they fired after aiming.
As long as it was an air target, no matter what else, they would fire!
Because everyone knew that the planes in the air at this time would only be US military planes.
Today was a sleepless night for the Libyans.
Because that night, the US military launched three waves of attacks!
Especially those fighter-bombers and bombers, the power was too terrifying.
Of course, there were fighter-bombers and bombers that were shot down. Except for some people who were lucky enough to parachute in time, more pilots did not even have the opportunity to parachute, and they exploded or fell with the plane.
For the Libyans, it was a painful night.
Many ancient buildings that were hundreds of years old were destroyed by bombs!
Many roads and bridges were blown up.
Many innocent people were killed and injured.
There were even hospitals that were blown up.
Some hospitals that were not bombed were overcrowded and had no way to treat so many injured people.
In just the first day, the three major attack waves destroyed all ground radars in Libya, destroyed major military targets, and forced other radar stations to shut down, paralyzing Libya's entire air defense system.
The next afternoon, ordinary people who thought that the US military would stop there did not expect that the US military would launch another attack.
The target of the attack is even wider, even deep into the heart of Libya!
The military action of the US military shocked the whole world.
Because the US military's approach and attitude are so brutal.
It is simply to bomb Libya back to the Stone Age.
Even the United States is too lazy to talk about other things to defend itself, and its attitude is very firm.
Revenge!
Or revenge!
You can't touch the tiger's butt. If you touch the tiger's butt, the tiger may eat you.
The next night, the mercenaries began to withdraw to Egypt.
The mission of the mercenaries has ended, and Libya no longer has the "Aegis" air defense missiles.
In high-intensity combat, the "Aegis" air defense missile system operated by the mercenaries has been used up.
In this case, it is useless to stay in Libya.
Besides, Libya is so dangerous now.
As for the bonus, it will be settled soon.
They have already settled the last bonus. As for this bonus, it will not take long to settle.
The mercenaries have fulfilled the contract and can withdraw.
But the Soviet army and the Soviet military observation group cannot withdraw.
They didn't expect that the US military would be so crazy and send out such a large fleet.
And they would bomb at least three times a day.
Their anti-aircraft machine guns, anti-aircraft guns, and SAM missiles were all fired!
They were completely helpless. Although the US military did not directly drop bombs and missiles on the Soviet military bases in Libya, they dropped bombs and missiles near the military bases, which was completely a demonstration.
The Soviet fleet in the military port only played a deterrent role, preventing US Navy warships from attacking the Libyan coast and the landing of the US Marines.
The bombing lasted for five days.
The US Navy and Air Force jointly launched an air strike on Libya, and the air strike achieved brilliant results.
Not only were all the original five selected targets destroyed, but also a large number of Libyan military targets and important targets were destroyed.
All ground radars and all anti-aircraft missile positions in Libya were destroyed!
And it also caused the deaths of tens of thousands of Libyan people, including Gaddafi's 1.5-year-old adopted daughter Hannah and his two sons and a daughter.
At prime time on TV programs in Washington local time, CBS reporters broadcast live reports of the war from Tripoli.
The results of the war were brilliant, but the United States still suffered great losses.
In the first two days of the "Golden Canyon" operation, the United States was threatened by anti-aircraft missiles, anti-aircraft guns, anti-aircraft machine guns, and portable anti-aircraft missiles, and the losses were really not small.
Looking at the losses, the top US military officials would feel heartbroken.
Only military-industrial enterprises would revel, because this is not only a propaganda for their own excellent performance, but also means that the military will make purchases, which is all money.
The United States is holding back a breath of anger, and some officials even publicly stated that they would bomb Libya back to the Stone Age before they would stop.
In fact, the losses in both operations were too great.
Now, if Libya is not forced to surrender while almost all its air force, navy and air defense forces are lost, and Libya is bombed as much as possible, how can the United States recover its losses?
As long as Libya is forced to surrender and its oil resources are obtained, it will only take one year to make up for the losses, and the rest will be earned in the future.
Otherwise, this war will be a huge loss.
And the United States is most reluctant to do a losing business.
The reason for attacking Libya is that Gaddafi has repeatedly done things that annoyed the United States and slapped the United States in the face. If he is not punished, it will be very detrimental to the United States' international image. In the future, other small countries will provoke the United States at every turn. Anyway, the United States will not dare to fight against them. Another important reason is to kill Gaddafi and bring Libya back to the arms of the United States, so that the United States will have an important strategic support point in North Africa and can better exert influence in the Middle East.
Destroying Libya is not the goal, the fundamental goal is to control Libya.
