Chapter 743 Blast back to the Stone Age? (Subscribe)
the next day!
As Saddam personally held a press conference to inform the world about the glorious achievements of the Iraqi army.
The whole world was in an uproar.
The news quickly spread throughout the world and caused a sensation all over the world.
The U.S. Navy is recognized as the world's maritime hegemon and has the most powerful navy.
Now he has suffered such a huge defeat.
According to Iraqi propaganda, they sank two U.S. aircraft carrier formations, destroyed more than 50 U.S. warships, severely damaged more than 30 warships, and shot down more than 300 U.S. aircraft.
This loss will definitely make the United States feel heartbroken.
The news reached the United States, and the entire United States was shocked.
No one expected that the strength of the US military would become deeply rooted in the hearts of the people during this period. The US military has also continued to achieve success in recent years, as evidenced by the smoke-filled cities in Iraq.
It's fine now, but it was hit hard.
Countless people are very angry and demand the government to give an explanation to the people.
Bush Sr. was forced to come out to refute the rumors and announce the loss of the US Navy.
Of course, the number of losses has been reduced by one level. Although this will still make the people angry, it is much less than what the Iraqis said. Moreover, Bush focused on the offensive power of Iraq this time, exaggerating that Iraq could launch a thousand missiles at a time. missiles, and dispatched 500 aircraft to raid the US military formation, and then said that the US military shot down more than 400 Iraqi aircraft.
Coupled with the launch of a powerful propaganda machine, the angry people were finally appeased.
"What does your CIA do for food? You don't even know this kind of information!" Bush scolded CIA Director William Webster.
If the intelligence can be timely and accurate, many losses here can be avoided.
William Webster lowered his head and did not dare to say anything, because this matter was indeed the fault of the intelligence department.
When it comes to accountability, the CIA cannot run away and must take responsibility.
"Sir, I think we should now investigate which countries sold weapons to Iraq, causing us such huge losses, and they have to compensate us for the losses!" said a consultant.
Others rolled their eyes.
The Soviet Union and other European countries have sold a lot of weapons to Iraq. Even in the past decade or so, the United States has sold no less weapons and equipment to Iraq.
Can this kind of thing be investigated?
You can't check it at all!
Besides, before, Iraq was a normal country and a friendly country with the United States. Isn't it normal for people to buy weapons?
If checked, it is not an increase in opponents, and the United States itself is involved.
"There is no need to talk about the investigation anymore. Now we need to urge the troops to increase their attack power and let the coalition forces dispatch ground troops!" Bush Sr. waved his hand.
He knew exactly what the situation was.
This kind of thing simply cannot withstand investigation and cannot be investigated!
After checking, what should I do if I find out something?
Are you trying to slap yourself in the face, or are you trying to break up with those countries? ?
"I'm going to hit Iraq hard this time!" Bush gritted his teeth: "It's best to blow Iraq back to the Stone Age!"
Regarding Iraq, Bush Sr. has become truly murderous!
This time, Saddam slapped him on his old face, embarrassing him and the United States all over the world.
"Let Schwarzkopf beat the Iraqis hard, otherwise he will no longer be the commander-in-chief!" Bush said angrily.
Although he approved Operation Desert Storm, there was such a big mistake, which made him feel tremendous pressure.
You know, he has a lot of opponents.
The Democratic Party has long been dissatisfied with his policy tilt towards energy, military industry and other fields.
This time it can be said that it gives the Democratic Party a huge opportunity.
Headquarters of the multinational coalition forces.
Schwarzkopf immediately received domestic orders.
Schwarzkopf couldn't help but have a wry smile on his face.
Since the war began, Operation Desert Storm has not been carried out as smoothly as expected, and Iraq's air defense capabilities are stronger than imagined.
Iraq's air defense forces caused great losses to the coalition forces.
Well now, Iraq launched a sneak attack on the U.S. dual aircraft carrier fleet, causing such huge losses to the United States.
But he knew that he had no choice, because he was the commander-in-chief, and if such a big mistake was made, the higher-ups would be held accountable, and the first step would be to hold him accountable for his poor command.
"Order us and the coalition forces to launch missiles into Iraq again, and then order us and all coalition air forces to launch attacks on important targets in Iraq. I don't want Iraq to have the opportunity to sneak attack coalition forces in the future!" Schwarzkopf said coldly Said, "Find all their missile launch sites and destroy them! Bomb all airports in Iraq, including civilian airports, to ensure that their fighters can no longer take off!"
"Attack the Iraqi power system and destroy the Iraqi power system! I don't want to see the Iraqis continue to use electricity!" Schwarzkopf's words were full of ruthlessness. "Destroy all the Iraqi government buildings and let the Iraqis continue to use electricity." They lost their minds!"
"Commander-in-Chief, how about dispatching ground troops? Launch a more violent offensive and advance directly to Baghdad with tanks and armored forces!" The army commander once again proposed to send ground troops to attack the Iraqi army.
Until now, the Army has not yet entered the battlefield. It can be said that it has not achieved even an inch of success.
At present, the Air Force has suffered losses, and the Navy has also suffered losses. In his opinion, the war still depends on the Army.
He has his opinion on the "Desert Storm" operation.
He believes that it is unrealistic to rely on missiles and aircraft to destroy the military power of the world's third largest military power.
Wars ultimately rely on the Army, and rely on the Army to win the war.
As for the Air Force, it is just an auxiliary branch of the army, used to assist the Army.
"No! The Army cannot move!" Schwarzkopf shook his head and said, "Continue to send out the Air Force to bomb, paralyze all Iraqi armed capabilities, make them lose all offensive capabilities, and destroy Iraq's war potential!"
If the attack is launched now, the US military does not know how much it will lose.
I am afraid that the prepared body bags are probably not enough.
Now that the Navy has suffered such a huge loss, if the Army also suffers huge losses, then his career as the commander-in-chief will end, and he may even be sent to a military court.
In this case, Schwarzkopf will not do it.
Missiles and aircraft, the US military has plenty.
Although the missile consumption rate is alarming now, the US military has used transport planes to transport missiles directly from the US mainland.
The US military has even placed a large order with military industrial enterprises, asking them to produce missiles with all their strength.
The US military has even mobilized missiles from other military bases to the Middle East.
In Schwarzkopf's view, the army can be dispatched after Iraq is almost bombed.
As for now, if the army is dispatched and air superiority has not been achieved, the army will inevitably suffer relatively large losses.
