The explosion on the ground caught the US pilots hovering over the sky off guard.

The air-to-air missiles they launched were simply unable to catch up with these targets flying at high speeds of more than Mach 3.

Further north, along Highway 1, a huge armored force stretched for several kilometers. In this area, the explosion was even more serious than in Nuhaib.

The first wave of attacks caused many American tanks and armored vehicles to flee wildly, and the losses were not too serious.

After all, the entire armored force is advancing rapidly along the road towards the front. There are fighter planes and reconnaissance planes escort in the sky.

Iraq's fighter planes were not seen at all.

At the same time, only a few ground-wave missiles launched by the Iraqis landed on the highway, scrapping about one-fifth of the equipment of the 24th Mass Enemy Division.

The rest began to spread to both sides of the road.

"Are you prepared? There are so many tanks that have not been killed, so they can launch the missiles loaded with cluster bombs!"

After commanding the second wave of attack on Nuhaib, Saddam couldn't help but feel angry after seeing the missile landing point in the north, there were still many matchbox-sized objects moving towards both sides of the road!

These Chinese missiles are simply not reliable enough.

Didn’t it mean that the accuracy error is within 50 meters of the circumferential radius?

To deal with such armored clusters, the best effect is to use cluster bombs.

"President! We only have fifty Hussein II missiles loaded with cluster bombs..." Hashem reminded Saddam that they only have fifty warheads that are 8208 missiles of cluster bombs. The Chinese are so stingy about it. Even if they add more money, they are unwilling to let them obtain more advanced weapons with absolute lethality and absolute lethality for armored clusters.

If all of them are used at this time, what should I do when facing the opponent's large-scale armor cluster in the future?

"Then launch 30 pieces, and these armored vehicles must not be allowed to escape!" Saddam replied indifferently.

This is a good thing to destroy a division of the US military in this way, and it is impossible to find it with a lantern.

"At the same time, another one will be available for other launch positions! Tell the Americans that we are not short of missiles!" Saddam was a little crazy this time.

For him, holding thousands of such missiles in his hand will definitely make the US military look good.

The missiles launched in Basra also achieved great results.

Although those missiles brought greater casualties to the US and coalition forces, they did not kill too much equipment from the US and coalition forces, which is a huge regret.

Saddam knew better than anyone else that as long as one of the US divisions was completely wiped out here, the war would soon be unable to continue.

The US military is not qualified to interfere in the Arab world.

The reason they do whatever they want is because they think they have surpassed the Soviet Union in this world and have no opponents at all.

The 24th Mechanical and Staff who destroyed them was to restore their confidence in the war to be shattered.

In the Khalid Military City, Schwartzkopf fainted again after learning the news and seeing the satellite photos on the scene.

This time, even if he was rescued, he could not wake up quickly and was sent to the battlefield hospital for rescue by a group of staff.

Powell's face was so gloomy that it could drip into water.

Schwartzkopf's fainting this time caught him off guard.

Obviously, this is evading responsibility. Not only do you have to push all the reasons for the failure of the war on yourself, but you also want to clean up such a mess.

Iraq has such a number of Scud missiles in its hands, which is nothing they had never expected.

Through what channel did the Soviets export so many missiles to Iraq?

"Request from the domestic government to urgently mobilize the Patriot missile defense system to deploy to Saudi Arabia. The number of Scud missiles modified by the Iraqis may also be quite large!"

After one minute, a full silence, Powell spoke.

When he spoke, his voice was hoarse.

The officers in the headquarters seemed to have a backbone at this time and began to get busy.

"Report that the troops in the Kuwait direction were also attacked by large-scale missiles, with heavy casualties..."

"Report, the Basrai Army missile launch position was discovered..."

"Report, Baghdad missile positions were found..."

A series of reports, at this time, kept reporting to their Joint Chiefs of Staff.

Powell's head seemed to explode.

At this time, he himself didn't know how to deal with the situation in front of him.

However, he could not make these American officers lose confidence in the war.

"Order all air forces to bomb Basra's missile launch positions! I want to prevent this city from flying any missiles!" Powell's order was issued.

Indiscriminate attacks, whether it should be expanded from Baghdad to other cities and even the entire territory of Iraq needs to be cautious.

The missile launch position that was discovered cannot be let go!

"What should I do with the 24th mechanic?" This is a question that everyone is worried about.

The 24th Mechanical Infantry Division suffered such a severe blow that they had no way to defend.

Although the 24th mechanic and infantry division has strong air defense capabilities, it is very difficult to deal with large-scale missile attacks.

In this case, the headquarters cannot save it.

"Tel to me the command of the 24th Mass Division! Let their division commander James talk to me on the phone..." Powell did not know the situation of the 24th Mass Division. "Contact the commander of the North Line Armored Forces of the 24th Mass Division and retreat at full speed! Order the Third Mass Division to pause forward and pay attention to air defense!"

After a series of orders were issued, Powell gradually recovered.

Many commands were even issued without thinking.

However, soon, the communications officer told him that he could not contact the 24th Mechanical and Infantry Division command. The armored troops on the North Line kept asking for support, and it was unclear where the commander went.

"The 24th Northern Line Mass Division was attacked by missiles again!" Suddenly, a scream made Powell jump up and rushed towards the computer screen connected to the satellite system next to him.

There are also hundreds of red dots flying rapidly in the sky, with the target being the remnants of the 24th Mass Division on both sides of the highway.

It's over!

This is the thought that flashed through Powell's mind.

He knew very well what Baghdad wanted to do. Once the 24th Mechanical Infantry Division was completely wiped out, it would cause an unparalleled blow to the US military.

Whether it was World War I or World War II, or even facing the PLA and Vietnamese army that made Americans feel terrifying, no division's troops were annihilated in American history.

For such a result, Saddam will not suffer any loss even if he fires out all the missiles in their inventory.

The war will not continue.

Just 24 hours after the war started, the US military had suffered heavy losses.

How would the American army deal with it if it was facing a more crazy Soviet army?

A negative mentality will spread like a plague in this American army.

"Order all fighter jets in that airspace to launch all air-to-air missiles and intercept these missiles with all their strength!" Under the current circumstances, even if you know the result, you must react.

Even if there is no effect.

A dead horse is a living horse.

This is a Chinese sentence that Powell suddenly remembered.

On Iraq Highway 1, in the area where it was originally bombed, many American armored vehicles and tanks were fleeing towards the roadside. Many missiles were blowing up the road, which made it even more difficult for them to escape.

At the edge of the road, there is a desert. Only on the road can their tanks and armored vehicles run faster. On the sand, it is very difficult for tanks to run, just like snails crawling.

"boom!"

The first missile landed between two M2 infantry fighting vehicles, and the shock wave caused by the violent explosion made the entire

The first explosion sounded, as if it had begun the explosion.

Iraq's missiles are like eyes. They can blow up wherever they are densely packed with tanks and armored vehicles. Although some of them are not blown up at all, they make it more difficult for them to move.

"Boom boom boom..."

A series of violent explosions were like a symphony ringing on this wide road.

The American fighter jets that arrived from afar launched dozens of air-to-air missiles, but did not intercept any of the Iraqi missiles at all.

After the explosion caused by the second wave of missile attacks, dozens of missiles appeared again in the sky. These missiles flew the same speed as previous missiles, or even faster.

The only difference is that after these missiles reached the target area, they exploded at a height of dozens of meters. Then, countless small warheads in the explosion fell to the ground at a faster speed. As long as they were hit, the tanks would no longer move!

On the tank, the weakest defense is the top.

The armor here is far less thick than the front and side thickness.

It's over!

It's completely finished.

"Order all missile destroyers to launch long-range missiles at the missile positions found in Baghdad!" All Powell could think of was revenge.

"Baghdad has an interception system, and it was not successful last night..." A senior officer asked.

The tomahawk was fired again, unless the missiles were tilted towards their positions like the Iraqis.

"Order all missile troops to launch all missiles with a range of enough fire to me!" Powell ordered coldly. "I will bear all the consequences!"
Chapter completed!
