Chapter 1118 Two Era
January 6, 1985; Sunday; 3 a.m. Fucairah time.
Half an hour ago, Prince Dericht was very unhappy and was woken up from his sleep by the guards. But he also knew that business was important. As the commander-in-chief of the troops attacking Fucaira, he had to issue many orders. The guards also lamented that it would be better to be born into the royal family. Even during a war, women can be brought to the military camp. It seems more like a vacation than fighting the enemy.
After seeing everyone gathered, Dericht said very domineeringly: "Soldiers, although the land in front of us is the land of Fucaira, it once belonged to us. It was the people of Fucaira who used despicable means to steal it from the great sand." But do you know! Five days ago, they dared to ignore dissuasion and appoint a woman as the chief. This is not only an issue for Fujairah, but also for the face of Sharjah."
"So the sheikh gave them advice, but the people of Fujairah still go their own way. This is not only disrespectful to Chief Qasimi, but also blasphemous to the entire Emirate of Sharjah. As the most brave and fearless warrior in the emirate, I hope you will Take up the weapons in your hands and attack the enemy."
"Let them know that disobedience will cost them blood."
After all, as a member of the royal family, even if you don't learn countless things. There are still no problems with basic speeches and morale boosting. They will receive relevant education from a young age, and after all, everyone has the opportunity to become a chief.
At this time, the officers did not expect that this old pervert could be of such skill. It seems that it is not as unbearable as imagined. I was worried about delaying the military aircraft before, but it seems that this worry is somewhat unnecessary.
The chief appointed Dericht as the commander-in-chief of the offensive force, but it caused quite a stir in the army. They are all worried that the old guy can't complete the task and will be a serious hindrance.
De Ligt is an old pervert in the hearts of the people of Sharjah. But the reputation is very bad, and not generally bad. If such a person is allowed to command the army in battle, does he really think that the enemy is weak? But when I heard the old guy speak today, he was still very good. Many officers even believed that it might be the previous struggle for power in the royal family that prevented the old guy from showing too much shrewdness.
If De Ligt knew that the officer thought so, he really didn't know what to say.
De Ligt is satisfied to see that the soldiers' enthusiasm has been mobilized. He said directly: "I order to attack Fucaira."
They were all soldiers. After receiving the order, they immediately began to advance in the direction of Fucaira. The Sharjah army marched from three directions, and the purpose was self-evident. The purpose is to occupy the entire Fucairah through one attack.
The Sharjah artillery first fired into the territory of Fujairah. The artillery showed courage. Moreover, the previous training content was basically a combination of artillery and infantry; it can be said that at this time, the Sharjah army still adopted the tactical concept during World War I.
Fucairah has already prepared for Sharjah's strategic deployment. Therefore, the residents had been moved away before the war started.
But the guns were ruthless, and many shells still landed in inhabited residential areas. After all, the whole of Fucaira is too small, and there are not many places to hide.
Now that the other party has fired, don't be polite. Dimitrov gave a direct order: "Execute strong electronic jamming to the entire Sharjah area."
Electronic jamming is a radio wave disruption measure taken to cause enemy electronic equipment and systems to lose or reduce their effectiveness. It is an integral part of electronic countermeasures. The purpose is to weaken or destroy the enemy's ability to use various electronic equipment and systems to conduct battlefield reconnaissance, combat command, communications, and weapons control and guidance, so as to create favorable conditions for concealing one's own intentions and improving the survivability of one's own aircraft and ships.
After a decree was given, the high-power electronic interference equipment developed by Heiyun began to implement full-band electronic interference in the entire Sharjah area.
Prince Dericht, who was advancing with someone else's armored command vehicle, suddenly found that he could not contact other troops at all. After all, the old guy has seen some of the market, so of course he knows what's going on. Immediately dispatch personnel to transmit information and increase the radio frequency.
But he still underestimated the technical strength of Heiyun Group and Bao Zixuan's financial investment. Just six electronic jamming devices cost more than $40 million. At this time, not only Sharjah, but other surrounding UAE countries also lost radio signals. Even parts of Oman have been affected, which shows how powerful the equipment is.
Now that the first step has worked, the second step of the strike plan can be implemented.
Anti-radiation missiles began to be fired at the enemy, targeting the Sharjah radar system.
Anti-radiation missiles, also known as anti-radar missiles, refer to missiles that use electromagnetic radiation from enemy radars for guidance, thereby destroying enemy radars and their carriers. In electronic countermeasures, it is the most effective weapon for hard-killing radars. Anti-radiation missiles currently in service are usually used to attack selected targets. Before launching, the target must be reconnoitred and its coordinates and radiation parameters measured. After launch, the seeker continuously receives the target's electromagnetic signal and forms a control signal, which is transmitted to the actuator to automatically guide the missile to the target. During the attack, if the attacked radar shuts down, the missile's memory device can continue to control the missile to fly toward the target.
The Black Cloud Group relied on missiles from the Soviet Union and temporarily modified several of them. Although it is slightly lacking in range, it can definitely meet the needs of modern warfare in other aspects. There was no problem at all against the radar station in Sharjah.
At the same time, all 36 Yak-36 fighter jets took off, and they wanted to shoot down all non-own aircraft in Sharjah and Fucairah.
Cruise missiles purchased from the Soviet Union were also equipped with chips developed by the Black Cloud Group. After all, the Soviet Union was still far behind in the field of microelectronics.
Military camps, power plants, and important transportation facilities in Sharjah are all within the scope of the attack. Suddenly, 138 cruise missiles from three missile bases in Fucairah attacked predetermined targets in Sharjah.
Ten minutes later, various important locations in Sharjah were attacked by missiles; but at this time, the palace and the military could not be contacted at all.
Intelligence agents cut off all phone lines, and wired communications in Sharjah have also ceased to function.
At this time, Dericht has entered the territory of Fucaira and can only keep pushing forward. He had already seen the fire of the missile just launched, and he must seize the enemy missile position as soon as possible.
But destined to disappoint them, the Yak-36 fighter jet fired missiles at the Sharjah helicopter. The confrontation between fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters is simply a bit bullying.
Fucairah's helicopter rushed directly towards the Sharjah tank unit.
The anti-tank missiles attacked the enemy as if they were free, and in an instant the entire army was blown away.
Dericht was also confused. He had never seen such a battle before. When can a war be fought like this? It seems like today is going to be bad.
In less than an hour, all important facilities such as power plants, barracks, telegraph buildings, and bridges in Sharjah were destroyed by the enemy. It can be said that Sharjah’s ten years of construction achievements have been destroyed in one fell swoop.
At this time, the benefits of a small country are reflected, since wired and wireless communications are useless. Then it’s okay to send someone to deliver the message!
In this way, people from each bombed place were sent to the palace to report the situation.
As for why the palace was left behind, it was because Bao Zixuan did it deliberately. The royal families in the Middle East are more or less related to each other and directly bomb each other's palaces. In the end, there may not even be a chance for negotiation, and it may even be isolated by other Arab countries.
King Qasimi also heard the explosion and had already gotten up. When I kept receiving news that somewhere was being bombed, I almost fainted from anger.
But I also know that now is not the time to escape; I can only ask Abu Dhabi for help.
There are dedicated communication methods between each emirate and Abu Dhabi, and the burial is relatively secretive, so it has not been discovered.
As for the three-pronged army attacking Fucaira, they have now lost all their heavy firepower; they can only rely on infantry for defense.
Sharjah soldiers have basically never been on the battlefield, let alone seen blood. Seeing his comrades dying beside him, he was so frightened that he still had the courage to fight against the enemy.
Soon deserters appeared among the Sharjah army. It may be safer to return to China at this time. As for building a career, it's really not suitable for them.
Desertion will create a chain reaction, and others will soon follow suit. However, veterans with a little experience did not do this. It's not that they don't want to escape, it's that they know they can't escape at all.
So many missiles just flew towards Sharjah, which shows that the domestic situation is not optimistic. Moreover, deserters must be punished if they return, so it may be more practical to wait for surrender.
It was this thought that saved their lives.
