Chapter 959: Urban Offensive and Defensive Battle III

Scene after scene is everywhere in the suburbs of Kabul, because the gap between the two sides is too great, the coalition forces have always had the upper hand, there are helicopter gunships, reconnaissance helicopters, reconnaissance planes, unmanned reconnaissance planes, main battle tanks, infantry fighting vehicles and so on so many sophisticated weapons and equipment as a means, if they are at a disadvantage, then the face of the modern military power will be trampled under their feet.

When night fell, the coalition forces each took up a small area of territory and began to go on the defensive. After the war, the casualties of the American army were not large, more than 30 people were killed and more than 60 were wounded during the day, the British troops in the east were killed more than 40 and wounded more than 20, and NATO countries such as Germany, France and Italy were almost equal in casualty figures.

"This battle is not easy to fight, we have divided eight areas in the southeast, northwest and northwest, and at present the three directions only occupy 60% of one piece, for a war, the immediate losses seem to be negligible, but this time the opponent is the Taliban army in Afghanistan, in the ranking of the poorest countries in the world, here is the best ah!"

"We lost the Vietnam War, that is because the former Soviet Union and China intervened, and the Taliban government has no other assistance, although it is only a prologue, but the fight is not ideal, and the future losses can be predicted." This was stated by the commander of the 1st Mechanized Infantry Division.

More than 300 people died in a tentative attack, which is simply a great shame for the combined army, and when the news reaches their respective countries, the families of those fighters will definitely ask the government for an explanation under the emotion of grief and indignation, and the news media, which is afraid that the world will not be chaotic, will also form a huge pressure, and the first to bear the brunt is the commanders on the front line.

"The Taliban army has eaten the city of Kabul thoroughly, not only building a large number of fortifications and firing points, but also opening up a number of routes in advance, which can be attacked and retreated, especially those sniper and mortar groups, and the casualties are basically caused by them." said the commander of the British army.

"The Taliban army seems to have a lot of weapons and equipment from the former Soviet Union, and today it actually fired more than a dozen rockets in a row, from the model of the former Soviet Union's RPG-7 rocket launcher, using anti-personnel grenades and ordinary armor-piercing shells, which blew up several houses, and more than a dozen soldiers were stoned to death on the spot." said the commander of the Italian army.

"The most annoying thing is that those Northern Alliance troops are stupid, they don't have the slightest common sense of combat, not to mention military literacy, not only did they not help, but they also caused us chaos, in order to rescue these guys, we had more than 20 soldiers killed by the opponent." said the commander of the German army.

"There is no need for outsiders to close the door, these Northern Alliance troops are here to cooperate with us in the war, there is no need to waste our precious lives to rescue them, just now the commander of the Northern Alliance also wanted us to pay for medical expenses, and send the wounded to the mercenary hospital in the new city of Kabul for treatment, but I refused, and the US government allocated them more than 30 million US dollars in funds and hundreds of millions of dollars in materials for more than a month, and really regarded us as wronged?" The commander of the 101st Air Assault Division said, his tone was very disdainful.

The Taliban army, which was at an absolute disadvantage, suffered extremely staggering casualties, because they were almost desperately using their lives to stop the enemy's attack, and they suffered more than 1,000 casualties in one day, of which more than 100 were members of the guerrilla forces.

"Commander-in-chief, in the 14 hours from 5 o'clock in the morning to 7 o'clock in the evening, we killed more than 760 people and wounded more than 420 people, which is really a heavy loss, killing and wounding more than 300 coalition troops, more than 400 people of the Northern Alliance, shooting down one Apache, two reconnaissance helicopters, blowing up four main battle tanks, and six infantry fighting vehicles. The operational staff reported a set of figures.

"Modern equipment is not the only factor in winning the war, but it is a very crucial factor, more than 1,000 people were killed and wounded in one day, and how many days can we all last together? Fortunately, some preparations were made in advance, otherwise the number of casualties would have increased exponentially, and the difference in strength was too big! ”

"Tonight, the mortar unit is preparing to launch an intensive bombardment, and the number of 100 guns hit is divided into two groups, specifically hitting the strongholds of NATO troops, rocket launchers and anti-tank missile groups, carrying out a close attack on the US troops in the north, installing remote-controlled bombs, and detonating them when the enemy pursues them, and we will fight a night raid war." said the division commander of the guerrilla forces.

"Those idiots of the Northern Alliance simply followed the coalition troops to their deaths, and the effect did not play a single role, but their own casualties were very large, and I saw that the ambulance of the hospital in the new city of Kabul only took away some of the wounded of the coalition troops, and did not care about the wounded of the Northern Alliance at all." The commander of the Taliban army said with a smile.

"This is also normal, the hospital of the mercenary legion, whether it is to do surgery or bandage the wound, it costs money, the Northern Alliance is not willing to give money, of course the hospital ignores them, let the mercenary hospital save the life and help the wounded, if the civilians are better, the enemy in the Taliban will be treated during the war, and people cannot afford this risk." The division commander of the guerrilla forces also laughed.

More than 400 people were killed and wounded in the Northern Alliance, and they did their best to play the role of cannon fodder, and this number also made the leaders of the Northern Alliance very dissatisfied.

"Brigade commander, so many of our soldiers are waiting for treatment, there are many missing arms and legs, one hundred and seventy or eighty people are lying on the ground screaming in pain, I don't have any medicine to stop pain and stop bleeding, and I don't have medical dressings and surgical instruments, but the mercenary hospital in the new area of the people's house only has an agreement with the coalition forces, and can take the green channel for treatment, and the wounded of the Northern Alliance need to pay a deposit first, you hurry up and contact the US military, if the time is late, the wound infection will cause serious consequences, They are either dead or crippled, these people are our brothers! A military doctor said anxiously.

"I also want to send these brothers to the hospital for treatment, but as soon as I told the liaison officer of the US military just now, I was dumbfounded, and I was speechless when they asked, before the operation, we had already given enough expenses to the headquarters, and even the funeral expenses were included, why, can a person die twice?" The brigade commander was in the tent and only panting.

"Then quickly contact the headquarters and ask them to send the treatment and medical expenses over quickly, since we have money, then these brothers can be hospitalized!" The medic didn't understand the meaning of the words.

"Contact a fart, all this money has been privately divided by those uncles, when the money is really used, no one is a dime, and it is not a fart to call over, and when they discuss it, what we want is the funeral expenses of the brothers!" The brigade commander said angrily.
