Expedition to Europe

Isam was actually very clear that compared with Lan Fang's national strength, the gap between Najd and Lan Fang was indeed a bit large.

However, Isam had never thought that the gap would be so large, it was simply a desperate gap.

While the Najd soldiers were still racking their brains for a meal of dried meat, the Lan Fang people's logistics supply was already so complete and systematic; when the Najd army was still using camels as a means of transportation, the Lan Fang soldiers were already flying in the sky. When the Najd army could achieve the current level of the Lan Fang army, God knows what level the Lan Fang army has reached.

When the country is poor and weak, people without ambition will go with the flow and eat and wait for death, but as long as they have a little ambition, they will set a goal and work hard, but when this goal seems to be out of reach, no matter how determined they are, they will feel powerless.

Isam now truly feels this despair.

When material conditions are unattainable, spiritual power will dominate, and "man conquers nature" may be born in this situation.

All Issam could do was to desperately show the strength of the Najd people, so that perhaps in some ways the Lanfang people would pay more attention to the Najd people.

In the next two days, the endless means of Lanfang made Issam feel shocked again.

No matter how fast the Najd army moved, the Lanfang people would always use "airdrop" to send supplies to the Najd army when the Najd army was resting.

The supplies covered almost all aspects, from food to simple medicines to replacement clothes. The "Kangaroo" also sent a backpack to each Najd soldier, which was the "three-day special attack" backpack that the Lanfang army was equipped with. This made almost all the Najd soldiers overjoyed, and even Issam and Ogbai couldn't help asking for one.

"Kangaroo" can do more than just airdrop.

About 50 kilometers away from Amman, Issam and his men finally encountered resistance from the Jordanians.

It can be seen that the Jordanians are also fighting to the death. In front of the Nejd army, there is also a camel cavalry waiting for battle, and it is also equipped with firepower positions equipped with artillery and heavy machine guns.

If it were in the past, Issam and his men were not afraid of the Jordanians. Cavalry with camels and cavalry without camels are completely different things. Issam and his men can completely bypass the Jordanians' frontal defense with their mobility and attack the Jordanians from the side or from behind, thereby disintegrating the Jordanians' defensive positions.

But now it is impossible. Issam and his men have no camels. This is a cavalry that has lost its mobility. They can only rely on their own legs. In the soft desert, relying on human legs to play a mobile detour is tantamount to seeking death.

Just when Issam and his men were ready to fight to the death, the "Kangaroo" flew over again. This time, the "Kangaroo" did not play the role of an angel, but the god of death.

When the "Kangaroo" flew over the Jordanian position and dropped a series of small black dots, Ogbai even exclaimed: "No, it's the wrong place, we are here--"

Soon Ogbai shut up. This time, the "Kangaroo" dropped not a parachute, but a string of bombs. When the flames and smoke enveloped the Jordanian position, Issam and his men could only clean up the battlefield.

The entire attack process took only about five minutes, or three minutes, or of course half an hour. In short, Issam had no concept of time. There was only one sentence going back and forth in his mind: How could this happen, why did this happen--

When the smoke cleared, the Jordanian position was completely unrecognizable. At least two thousand Jordanian cavalry died in the bombing of high-explosive bombs and incendiary bombs, and nearly three thousand Jordanian cavalry were seriously injured. They will die miserably in the next few hours. The Najd people have no medical ability to rescue these poor guys. Even if they have, Issam and his men will not use it on these Jordanians.

The seemingly indestructible defensive position had become a ruin. The artillery provided by the British was blown into a mess, and the heavy machine guns were disassembled into parts. The Jordanians had no defense against air strikes, and the spare ammunition was stored in the open air, which resulted in a sympathetic explosion. All the gunners and machine gunners were killed.

This position composed of nearly 10,000 Jordanian cavalry was originally intended to be filled with human lives by Issam and his men, but the Lan Fang Air Force only used one air strike to completely disintegrate all the will to resist.

Not bad, at least Issam and Oqbai both had a camel as a means of transportation.

In the following journey, no matter how Oqbai brought up the topic, Issam had no interest in chatting. He lowered his head and sat on the camel's back thinking about his own thoughts, without the slightest joy of victory. Even after arriving in Amman, the "Kangaroo" once again airdropped artillery and command vehicles, and Issam did not feel any surprise.

Isam was numb. Even if Kangaroo dropped Allah, he would not be surprised.

In fact, Isam thought that the King of Lan Fang might be Allah himself.

Just as Isam and his men were preparing to attack Amman, Chen Kangjian and Zhou Hongguang were evaluating the support effect of Kangaroo.

Zhou Hongguang was the Air Force Commander of Lan Fang. In fact, according to the mission of providing logistical support to the Nejd army, Zhou Hongguang did not need to come to Beirut-Baling to command. Zhou Hongguang came to Baling for other tasks. The Air Force regarded providing logistical support to the Nejd army as an exercise. In Zhou Hongguang's words, the Lan Fang Air Force was practicing the war between Nejd and Jordan to accumulate more experience and prepare for more important wars in the future. This gave Zhou Hongguang a reason to go to Baling in person.

With Zhou Hongguang's personal command, the Lan Fang Air Force attached great importance to this support operation. Zhou Hongguang was in charge of the overall situation at the headquarters, and the support operation was led by Dou Yongyi. Of course, Dou Yongyi felt that the only flaw was that the Jordanians did not have an air force, so the fighter unit of the air force did not have a chance to show its skills, which made Dou Yongyi quite regretful.

"The feedback has arrived. The artillery we dropped is basically fine. The ten assembled 75mm infantry guns are intact. Of course, this is related to the soft ground in the desert area. The airdropped 'Bulldog' and 'Matador' are also fine and can basically be driven. Only one 'Matador's' water tank has a problem. After a simple repair, the problem has been eliminated. The airdropped 'Hunter' has a problem. There are a total of five 'Hunters'. One has a serious problem with the suspension system and can no longer move. One 'Hunter' has a loose road wheel and is being repaired. Another one had a parachute fall off during the airdrop and crashed into the sand dunes. The Nejd people are still digging it out--" Dou Yongyi's face was a bit sour when he reported. The "Hunter" didn't have a "little" problem. Three of the five airdropped vehicles were damaged. The problem was quite serious.

"Well - basically in line with expectations. The airdrop of the 'Hunter' was originally a temporary additional project, so it's normal that it failed." Zhou Hongguang didn't care. If everything went smoothly, it would be a miracle.

"Then the result is that only fifty transport planes are needed to provide complete logistics for the infantry of two divisions-" Chen Kangjian touched his chin thoughtfully.

The Lan Fang Air Force provided logistical support to the Neizhi Army, and indeed only used fifty transport planes. Of course, the number of sorties was a bit too much, with an average of more than six sorties per plane.

"It also depends on the distance and the type of infantry. If our transport plane takes off from Baling, of course there is no problem, but if it takes off from the Alka plane, it is estimated that the number of sorties will be more." Zhou Hongguang looked at the report in his hand without looking up, and the expression on his face was still satisfied.

The Lan Fang Air Force also took great pains in this exercise. Although the airdrop destinations were the same, both were the Nejd Army in Jordan, the airports where the transport planes took off were different. The farthest one took off from Djibouti Airport, which was more than 2,300 kilometers away from Jordan. After completing the mission, these planes could no longer fly back to Djibouti due to insufficient fuel and could only land at Baling Airport.

The airdrop still exposed some shortcomings. When airdropping from Djibouti Airport to Jordan, two planes deviated from the route. Because the "Kangaroo" was equipped with radio, the airdrop was successfully completed in the end. Another plane had a malfunction after taking off from the Alka. Fortunately, the pilot was experienced and the plane made a successful forced landing. The pilot had no physical problems, but the plane itself was seriously damaged.

Strictly speaking, none of them were very serious problems. Exposing them now is also conducive to timely correction. Overall, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages.

"We should do more exercises like this. Anyway, it only consumes gasoline, and we have plenty of gasoline in Lan Fang." Chen Kangjian has an idea and is ready to stick to such exercises.

"It's not just gasoline that's wasted, it's also damaging the plane itself, and our planes are also limited in life." Zhou Hongguang didn't object, he just wanted to remind Chen Kangjian not to act recklessly.

With Chen Kangjian's personality, if he is not restricted, Chen Kangjian can make this kind of exercise a daily routine. Zhou Hongguang doesn't have time to play with Chen Kangjian. Logistics supply is indeed important, but for Zhou Hongguang, this is just part of the function of the Air Force.

"If you don't play with me, I'll play by myself. Give me some planes, I want to get an Army Aviation Corps." Chen Kangjian has a big appetite.

"Don't even think about it!" Zhou Hongguang refused without leaving any room for negotiation, even Dou Yongyi next to him glared at Chen Kangjian.

This is poaching in person, how can people tolerate it!

"Lao Yong, you see you are only a wing commander in the Air Force, why don't you come to our Army Aviation Corps, I'll let you be the commander of the Army Aviation Corps." Chen Kangjian is not afraid, it's obviously something that has no shadow, but it's said as if it's set in stone.

"Chen Kangjian, you better shut up!" Zhou Hongguang immediately got angry.

This is not the way to poach people.
