C2633 Sandstorm
The modern war has lost the concept of front and back. Even the rear could be attacked at any time. It had already happened many times. For example, the command center of Y Country. It was constantly under threat. Therefore, Shi Wapu had to constantly shift his position.
Now, the ground war had finally begun. He originally thought that he would be able to crush them with his decisive advantage. However, the battle was very arduous. The coordination of the open space would also be a problem. They would be ambushed by the Tank Force on the ground, especially the middle route. They actually let them destroy the entire Tank Force. Such an outcome... What?! Therefore, in the middle of the night... He personally came to the front line, a temporary helicopter base.
In Air Force Base, the helicopter base should be the simplest.
If it was a fighter base, there must be a runway. It was not easy to build a runway in the desert. The people of the Y Country used the simplest method. They pieced up the plastic runway piece by piece and flattened the sand below. That was enough.
In the helicopter base, as long as it was in the helicopter landing area... They would be able to build this assembly pad. The most important thing was the fuel supply and so on. So, under normal circumstances, the base would be built near the road so that it would be convenient for the supply and transportation.
The combat radius of the armed helicopters was about two to three hundred kilometers. If they took off from here, they would be able to directly fly over to fight. It was more reliable.
Tents were shaking in the sandstorm in the desert. The color of the sky in the distance changed, giving people a suffocating feeling. The violent sandstorm was surging over.
This was a sandstorm!
"General, you are here." At this moment, at the entrance of the tent, countless wild sand swept in. After seeing the appearance of the person, the officer who stayed behind immediately stood up and saluted.
"Yes, I am here to take a look. What is the current situation?"
As a commander, he should be planning strategies from behind. But the current General Schwapf, how could he still sit at the back?
Tank Force did not have a station. As they started to move, they were constantly moving. They could only go to the helicopter that provided support to Tank Force to investigate the situation.
"The Coconut Jujube People's tank is very powerful." Ferris said, "We can be hit by the enemy at a distance of two thousand meters. Moreover, their tank also has interference equipment, making it impossible for our tank to aim."
There were already many defeated Tankers who had temporarily stayed behind to guard the area. From their mouths, ferris knew what was happening in front of him and sighed in his heart. How did the Coconut Jujube People do it? Or, how did the Han people do it?
In the battlefield between Coconut Jujube Country and Parthia, there was no such thing as an insider leak. On one hand, it was because they were very conservative. The battle between tanks did not break out much. On the other hand, the outside world was looking down on them. From time to time, the Han people would show off their products. They proudly declared that they would be fine after being hit by so many cannonballs. This was clearly the way Granny Wang sold melons. Sometimes, she would say that the tanks in Coconut Jujube Country were powerful, and sometimes, she would say that the tanks in Parthia were powerful. In any case, it was their own tanks. No matter what, it was their own business.
Now that they were really fighting with the enemy, they suddenly realized how terrifying those tanks were. However, it was already too late.
"Looks like we can only rely on our helicopters." General Schwapf said, "We 101 Air Assault Division must display the power of our helicopters."
This unit naturally belonged to the 101 Airborne Assault Division. Under the current circumstances, they could only rely on this kind of aerial unit.
This was a glorious team. There was an eagle head on their armband, so they were also called "Eagle Division," "Shrieking Eagle," and Whistling Eagle.
Their predecessor was the aerial unit of World War. Although it was an aerial unit, it belonged to the army, and only Y Country had such a strange organization.
In the war of Monkey Country, they were reorganized into Air Force Forces. After that, they became Air Force Assaulters and used helicopters to carry out aerial assault and rapid advancement. Therefore, the main force of this division was the armed helicopters.
"Yeah, we are also working hard, but this bad weather has limited our efficiency in moving out." Ferris said.
That's right, helicopters are powerful assault weapons, but here, they are greatly restricted.
The sandstorm here was very damaging to the turbine engine. Although the fighter planes were also damaged, apart from the landing phase, the fighter aircraft was also operating on the ground. ... Most of the time, they were flying in the sky. There were very few sandstorms there.
However, helicopters were different. Helicopters were operating in a four-dimensional space that was as tall as a tree. (This four-dimensional space is talking about the height of a tree, not the general concept of the fourth latitude.)
In this space, the erosion of sand was the most severe. Therefore, the engine had to be repaired after the helicopter was deployed a few times. This caused the efficiency of the helicopter to be greatly reduced, even worse than a tank. Because their M1 Abrams's engine had already been changed to a desert filter. It was bigger, but the top of the helicopter did not have that much space!
Especially now, in this violent sandstorm, the helicopter's flight... Back in Parthia, the hostages of Coconut Jujube Country were detained. The Coconut Jujube Country had planned to use force to rescue them. But what happened in the end? They encountered a sandstorm in the desert, and there was a mechanical accident on their way there. He had no choice but to return halfway.
All the natural conditions in this place were targeted at them, but the Coconut Jujube Country was different. They lived here, grew up, and their weapons had all completed their training in the desert.
"Block the cannon barrel!" When the sandstorm started, Li immediately gave the order. Once there was too much sand inside the cannon barrel, it might cause the cannon to explode. This was not a joke. They had experienced this a long time ago. One balloon was enough. Yes, it was that kind of balloon. Many people carry it with them.
This kind of balloon. The balloon was not only used to cover the barrel, but also the barrel. It could be big, small, and very practical. Moreover, when firing, it did not affect it and directly pierced through the balloon.
Looking at the yellow sand that rolled up in all directions, Li's eyes were filled with joy. Great, I didn't expect a sandstorm to occur. This way... The enemy's aerial forces can't be deployed anymore. They belong to the ground forces now. They belonged to the Tank Soldier!2
Forward, forward, forward!
The sky was covered by the sandstorm. Even the tanks could not see each other. However, they did not care because they had a navigation system that was accurate to the Mi level!
