The rise of a great power: starting with military industry

Chapter 711: I'm not afraid of god-like opponents, I'm afraid of pig-like teammates
An army of one hundred thousand, what a mighty force!
From a distance, you can see the rising yellow sand.

"All units are ready for battle. Once the Iraqi army breaks through the border, kill them!" Prince Fahd immediately gave the order.

At this time, all Kuwaiti soldiers clearly realized that the war was really about to begin!

Even if they don't want to, the war has already begun.

Some people collapsed under the tremendous pressure of war and burst into tears, some wet their pants out of fear, and some ran away.

"Crack~~"

Prince Fahd had already arranged a supervision team, and any soldiers who escaped were shot directly.

Prince Fahd held a megaphone in his hand and shouted to everyone: "Everyone listen, those who escape in the face of danger will die! Behind us are our country, our parents, our wives and children. We have no way to retreat. We must stop the Iraqis. Even if we cannot stop them, we must make them pay a heavy price!"

Prince Fahd did not tell the soldiers that their families had left Kuwait and evacuated to Saudi Arabia, because once he told the soldiers, he estimated that most of the soldiers would scatter and run directly towards Saudi Arabia.

By using the supervision team's tactics and reminding them of their families, although the soldiers were afraid, no one deserted again.

Anti-tank missiles, anti-tank guns, and anti-tank rockets were all aimed, but whether they were truly aimed was another matter.

On the other side, 5000 mercenaries, each wearing camouflage uniforms, looked solemn.

Unlike the Kuwaiti regular army, the 5000 mercenaries began building fortifications and laying mines from the very beginning. These mines included both ordinary mines and anti-tank mines.

All along, the mercenary command has been keeping a close eye on the Iraqi army on the opposite side, 24 hours a day, and any movement will be discovered.

The tanks and armored vehicles are all camouflaged, making them impossible to detect by aerial reconnaissance.

The defense lines are ready, and the retreat routes are also planned.

To be honest, even though they were not afraid of the Iraqi army, they knew that they could not stop the Iraqi army.

Without him!

Not afraid of god-like opponents, but afraid of pig-like teammates.

They knew very well what the Kuwaiti army was like as they frequently trained the Kuwaiti army.

It is incredible that for several years, Kuwaiti soldiers have not been able to familiarize themselves with their weapons and have difficulty in bringing out the combat effectiveness of their equipment.

According to their predictions, the Kuwaiti army would definitely not be able to stop the Iraqi army's attack.

Once their defense line is broken, the mercenaries will be isolated and in danger.

But even so, they had to complete the mission, destroy as many backward Iraqi tanks and armored vehicles as possible, fight a good battle, and thus get a considerable bonus.

The mercenaries signed an agreement with Kuwait, which stipulated that in addition to each person's monthly fee, there were also different rewards for the number of enemies killed, the number of wounded, the number of planes and tanks destroyed on the battlefield, etc.

Since Kuwait has hired them, they must make the most of their mercenaries, both for the sake of their reputation and for future cooperation between the two sides.

All radars were turned on and locked onto the target, but the mercenary did not fire the first shot.

On the other side, on Iraqi territory, at 1 a.m., three divisions of the Iraqi Republican Guard rushed out of the barracks. They wanted to take advantage of the night and early morning to cross the Kuwaiti border and launch a surprise attack on Kuwait.

Even the Air Force, Navy, amphibious combat forces and special operations forces also took action at the same time!

According to the combat plan, their main attack force and special operations forces must meet in Kuwait City at six o'clock and completely occupy Kuwait City today.

In order to recapture Kuwait and make it the 19th province of Iraq, not only the troops at the border, but another troops will also enter Kuwait later.

Yes!

In order to quickly occupy Kuwait, Saddam deployed a total of 20 troops and more than 2000 tanks. The three divisions that served as the vanguard were all armored divisions, the elite troops of the Iraqi army. Their mission was to tear apart the Kuwaiti army's defense line so that subsequent troops could enter Kuwait in order.

The three divisions received the order not to stop but to charge forward all the way, tearing apart anyone who stood in their way, all the way to Kuwait City.

The steel torrent rolls forward.

Finally, the Iraqi army finally crossed the border between the two countries.

"Boom boom boom~~"

As soon as the Iraqi army crossed the border, anti-tank guns, anti-tank rockets, and anti-tank missiles roared towards the tanks and armored vehicles that crossed the border.

"Da da da~~~"

The heavy machine guns at various firing points roared at the same time.

Iraq's artillery and tank guns also roared, and the aircraft that had arrived fired missiles at the Kuwaiti positions.

"Boom~~"

A T72 main battle tank stopped, a flash of fire appeared from the muzzle, and a shell flew towards the anti-tank artillery position not far away.

"Boom~~"

The violent explosion overturned the anti-tank gun and caused mud to splash everywhere.

The war instantly became intense!

An anti-tank missile accurately hit the stopped T72 main battle tank and directly destroyed the T72 tank.

These anti-tank missiles cannot penetrate the Type 80 main battle tank, but can easily penetrate the T72 main battle tank.

"Swoosh~~" A Su-24 fighter jet had just pressed a button, and an air-to-ground missile flew towards the radar position. At this moment, a missile directly hit the Su-24 fighter jet. The Su-24 fighter jet suddenly turned into a ball of sparks in the air, which was so dazzling in the early morning.

"Swish, swish, swish~~" The 'Aegis' air defense missile system deployed on the border continuously launched missiles.

These Aegis air defense missiles are specially prepared for the Iraqi Air Force.

One anti-aircraft missile after another was launched and flew towards the aerial target.

After launching the missile, the vehicle starts to move to enhance its battlefield survivability, and then it reaches another place and starts to load anti-aircraft missiles.

It takes a certain amount of time to load the anti-aircraft missiles.

In the air, Iraqi planes were constantly being hit.

Whenever an airplane is hit by an anti-aircraft missile, it will be destroyed. If the pilot is lucky, he can parachute, but if he is unlucky, he will not even have time to parachute.

After the battle broke out, the Kuwaiti Air Force sounded the alarm throughout the air base, and Kuwaiti pilots began to take off their planes and come to the front line for support.

Although it was night, the battle was extremely fierce.

This is war!
Once the fight starts, the intensity will far exceed that of movies and TV series!

Especially since it was early in the morning, artillery fire was roaring and the flames of missile flight paths could be seen in the sky. As long as an Iraqi fighter jet was hit, it would turn into a gorgeous firework in the sky, which was very eye-catching.

The tanks were destroyed and thick smoke was billowing.
