Great Power Reclamation

Chapter 2666: A Battle of Great Disparity in Power

The president was forced to establish the new army and kept it firmly under his control. The troops controlled by the commander-in-chief were just there to make up the numbers this time.

The reason why the commander-in-chief did not compare with the general statistics was that he only sent out 50,000 old, weak, sick and disabled soldiers, and even their equipment was provided by the president.

Otherwise, the commander-in-chief would dare to order these soldiers to go to the battlefield with bows and spears.

The president stood on the tank and observed the Somali positions with a telescope, with a proud expression on his face. He seemed to have seen the Somali soldiers howling like ghosts and wolves.

Standing next to him was Owen, the military adviser sent by his old master, who was said to be one of the best commanders in modern warfare.

As for what wars they participated in? Don't ask. There are so many peacekeeping troops anyway, so it's easy to gild them.

The president politely asked Owen, "Mr. Advisor, how many months do you think it will take us to defeat them?"

Owen was also observing the enemy with a telescope at the moment. Upon hearing this, he took down the telescope, pondered for a moment, and held up three fingers.

The president smiled and nodded: "We agree on this. Three months is enough to completely annihilate them."

Owen waved his hand: "No, Mr. President, I said three days!"

The president opened his mouth and looked at Owen in disbelief, as if what he said was just a fantasy.

Owen smiled slightly, pointed at the other side's position and said:

"In modern warfare, soldiers do not charge into battle with swords and spears, but rely on powerful firepower and three-dimensional combat methods."

At this point, he himself realized that his speech was wrong and he coughed twice to change the subject. After all, this three-dimensional system was not yet achieved. There were no planes, let alone guided weapons.

However, there are currently quite a few tanks and artillery, which is also their current reliance.

More than a hundred latest tanks are right under our feet. This is a torrent of steel. On the other hand, the Somali side only has 30 tanks? Isn't this a crushing defeat?

Moreover, their rear artillery positions were also ready. With just one order, after a round of bombardment, there would probably be very few hairs left on the Sogdian army's positions. The infantry would take the opportunity to push forward and they would be defeated.

After hearing Irving's tactical explanation, the president laughed broadly. A consultant is indeed a consultant. His vision and command skills are not just bragging.

If they fight according to his idea, the Somali army can be completely defeated in a few hours, let alone three days, and then they can pursue the victory. They only have such a small army, how can they resist?

Tiechui's big eyes were pressed against the ground. They had been lurking here for 48 hours and dared not move.

This guy is really frustrated, but there is nothing he can do because their team can decide the success or failure of the war.

Have you ever seen a special forces soldier in full gear but wearing diapers? They are.

Looking at the watch, the battle would start in an hour. Tiechui was a little excited and his movements were a little bigger.

Yang Geyong, who was standing next to him, glared at him, and Tiechui immediately became a quail again.

Not far ahead of them were Egypt's two heavy artillery regiments, with more than a hundred heavy guns with their barrels raised high, like man-eating beasts.

The Iron Hammer team consists of only 200 people and is very scattered. They were lurking here before the arrival of the Egyptian army.

Don’t ask why they could accurately predict in advance that the enemy’s artillery position would be here?

Because this is the only place around here that is suitable for setting up artillery positions.

Their bunkers were all underground, and the only few lookouts were manned by experienced veterans.

The tunnel is very narrow, so narrow that you can only lie down there, which is also necessary for the purpose of confidentiality. Once the project is too large, it will be easily discovered.

This is also the reason why all soldiers can only wear diapers.

But staying motionless for dozens of hours made all the soldiers miserable. If they had not received rigorous training, they would have been unable to endure it long ago.

Think about those days, the tunnel was so narrow that you could only lie sideways, there was no room to sit, and there were either ammunition boxes or weapons around you. This was no longer a test of courage, but physical fitness.

Tiechui looked at his watch nervously and counted secretly. He was the commander of this team, and Yang Geyong was just a bystander. It was okay to use seniority to suppress others, but once the action was taken, they had to listen to Tiechui.

When the minute hand pointed to 6, Tiechui growled in the headset:

"Attack!"

Everyone rushed out of their bunkers as if they had heard the call to charge, and immediately set up their weapons.

All of them were rocket launchers. When the pointer pointed to 12, the hammer roared again:

"shooting!"

Flames spurted out from different directions, but the target was the same.

At this time, the Egyptian artillery positions were already on high alert, with shells loaded, waiting only for the order from their superiors.

"Boom boom boom!"

There were bursts of explosions at the artillery positions, which were deafening. But in fact, the cannons just exploded and there was no noise at all.

But the shells are not working? They are about to be fired, and all the shells are piled up next to the cannon because the loader is ready to load them at any time.

Although the rocket is small and not as powerful as a cannon, the effect is completely different when it explodes in the pile of shells.

Piles of artillery shells exploded instantly. The power was even louder than thousands of cannons firing at the same time. Most of the Egyptian soldiers were turned into pieces before they could react.

Those standing farther away from the periphery were also affected by the explosion. The lucky ones were scratched by shrapnel and crawled out.

The unfortunate ones couldn't even run away. They either lost an arm or a leg and could only lie on the ground wailing.

After several rounds of volleys, Tiechui waved his hand, and the soldiers threw away their rocket launchers, took off their automatic rifles and started charging.

There were not many people left in the artillery position, and even the commander was killed on the spot. How could they organize a resistance?

It was just one round of charge, and apart from those who ran away, the only ones left were the wounded soldiers who had no ability to resist.

Tiechui looked at the cannon, only one of which was left intact, excitedly and gave orders to the soldiers.

"Lower the muzzle of your gun and shoot at the enemy's ass!"

The Egyptian president was now standing in the bunker behind the army, waiting for the artillery to start bombing.

Because this was the original plan, the bunker was a temporary command center where several leaders were located.

Listening to the rumbling sound coming from the artillery positions, several people laughed heartily. They were waiting for the shelling to be over so that they could see for themselves the miserable condition of the Somali army.

War is cruel. If you dare to fight, you must be prepared to die.

Just a few minutes later, several people looked at each other in bewilderment. Why did the explosions come from the rear? Shouldn't it be from the enemy position in front? A liaison officer picked up the microphone to call the artillery commander, but there was no movement.

The President stood up and ordered:

"Send someone to find out what's going on for me right now, what a bunch of idiots!"

The President is furious, and don't blame him for being angry. With so many new equipment and weapons, it's time to use them, why did he start to explode them himself?

Could it be that these guys were pointing their guns backwards, firing at their own rear? Otherwise, why would there be noise from the back?

However, this doubt did not last long. The Hammer seized the remaining twenty or thirty cannons and soon put them to use.

Lower the muzzle and fire at the Egyptian army, and shoot at the tanks. Of course, the infantry behind the tanks were not spared either.

Even though the armor of these new tanks is thick enough and ordinary standard weapons cannot penetrate it, this is a cannon!

This kind of cannon can be used against tanks, and no amount of armor can withstand the explosion.

Just when all the tanks were at a loss, flames began to fly across the sky from the opposite Somali position.

It turned out that their artillery also began to bombard the Egyptian positions. The Egyptian tank group, which had been confused just now, became even more confused and began to prepare to flee.

Unfortunately, they were arranged too closely together because the advisor's orders were to line up and crush them.

As a result, they couldn't even escape. Huge shells exploded inside the tank group, and the thick armor was like paper in front of the huge shells and was torn apart in an instant.

Although the armor of some tanks was not damaged, their tracks were broken and they could only circle in place.

The President and Advisor Owen stared at all this in amazement, unable to say a word.

A huge roar came from the sky, and more than a dozen helicopters descended like demons, spitting out fire snakes and reaping lives.

Hundreds of thousands of Egyptian troops seemed to have entered hell, screaming and fleeing in all directions.

Ye Yuze sat on the helicopter, holding a self-portable missile in his hand, and fired at the tank that had finally escaped.

This armor-piercing projectile with its own tracking system was like the Grim Reaper's scythe, reaping one tank after another.

Xiao Di's eyes lit up. He was originally helping Ye Yuze load bullets, but now he was holding a machine gun and firing downwards.

Ye Yuze looked at her and shook his head helplessly. This woman had a violent gene in her body. If it were anyone else, they would have held their heads in their hands and dared not look at her, but she was as excited as a god of death.

The Egyptian army began to disintegrate and turned around to run backwards, leaving weapons everywhere along the way. There was nothing they could do; they couldn't run fast with guns.

Right in front of them was the Hammer's team. After they ran out of artillery shells, they sniped the fleeing soldiers from the front.

But there were too few of them, and the defeated soldiers walked around them, leaving behind a pile of corpses.

Yang San led 50,000 men to encircle the enemy. The battle could no longer be called a battle, but a massacre.

At this moment, every living life was being slaughtered wantonly like ants.

The president and advisor Owen were lucky because they had their own armored vehicles and they were quick to seize the opportunity and eventually escaped.

Seeing that the time was almost right, Yang San finally issued an order to surrender their weapons without killing them.

The defeated soldiers who could not run and had nowhere to escape fell to their knees instantly. This order was undoubtedly the sound of nature to them.

In the end, more than 50,000 of Egypt's 150,000 troops were wiped out, 90,000 were captured, and only a few thousand escaped.

The new army that the Egyptian president had spent a lot of effort to arm was completely destroyed in just three hours.

Yang San took advantage of the victory and completely recovered part of Egypt's territory deep inside Somalia, instantly increasing Somalia's area by one-fifth.

They should have fought back in one go, but Egypt still had 150,000 troops, and Yang San did not underestimate them, so he followed the old saying of "don't chase after an enemy who has lost his way" and withdrew his troops.

The biggest trophy of this battle was the prisoners, but unfortunately, there were only a few intact cannons and tanks left. Yang San was heartbroken.

How much effect will this thing have if it is in my hands?

Looking at the devastated battlefield, Ye Yuze suddenly didn't want to talk anymore. This grassland should be more lush next year, right?

The Egyptian president who fled back to the capital began to denounce the brutality and shamelessness of the Somali soldiers in front of the media, with tears streaming down his face.

But people have memories, and they will not forget his arrogance when he was about to start a war to annihilate a country not long ago.

Some major powers began to mediate, using both soft and hard tactics. Yang San temporarily lost the desire to attack, as he needed to thoroughly digest this newly returned land.

Ye Yuze and the other two were leaving. They were going back to Nepal to hunt and fish. They all didn't like war.

The entire Ye Mao crew was in a state of excitement, and they wanted to work 24 hours a day. The shooting progress was faster than ever before.

Who has ever seen a real battlefield filmed as a movie? I guess only Ye Mao and his group have caught up. There has never been one before, and there won’t be one in the future, right?

Soon, the filming of the African part of the scene would be completed, and they would go to Southeast Asia. Before leaving, Yun Feiyang lingered with him all night, reluctant to leave.

She knew that she had no way of owning this man, but she would not look for anyone else. For many people, once they have had them, they cannot let go.

Yun Feiyang lived a very comfortable life in Suo Country. She was a career-oriented woman and very talented, but there were too many talented people in Junken City and she had not made any significant achievements there.

Plus the system's practice of seniority, she lost her edge by the time she got through it.

Although this country is backward, it provides a big stage for her to display her talents.

Since I can't have this man alone, I'll choose my career and turn this backward country into a shining pearl, sparkling in the Gulf of Aden.

Also staying behind was Xiao Di. Ever since she took part in this battle, this woman had been obsessed with joining the army.

After Ye Yuze tried to persuade her several times without success, he let Yang San accept her. Life is a matter of one's own choices and no one else can influence it. Everyone has the right to decide their own life.

Of course, as for what the end of the choice is, it is also something you need to bear.

The great victory of the Somali country naturally attracted widespread attention from the international community. This small country has always attracted attention because of piracy and war.

But now they are rising rapidly. An army of 150,000 cannot withstand an enemy of 50,000. This naturally shocked everyone.

However, those top powers naturally don't care. They have been operating here for many years and naturally understand the combat effectiveness of the army here.

Otherwise, what are so many mercenary organizations doing here? Sometimes a small team can do something earth-shattering.

However, with such a strong rise, they naturally would not hesitate to win over Africa. Although Africa is a poor place, it has abundant resources.

In addition, Somalia has many ports and occupies a strategic location in the Gulf of Aden, so it would be very useful to have such a younger brother.

Ye Mei also accepted everyone who came to her, without showing any obvious preference, but she also didn't deliberately reject anyone. In short, if you give me benefits, I will accept them.

Haha, thank you for your votes, salute! I want more
