Chapter 1257: The First Year of Special Forces
Although the Allied army was still on the way, it was discovered by Germany, and the Scheer fleet was temporarily unable to attack, but the intelligence network of the Allied countries still existed, and they immediately informed China of the actions of the Entente and asked them to pay attention.
As a member of the Allied Powers, Germany is one of the few in the world that knows the relationship between China and Lanfang, to put it bluntly, the agreement signed by China to join the Allied Powers is currently only signed with Germany, and other countries have not been informed, after all, compared to the more rigorous Germany, other countries are really not reliable, Austria-Hungary, Turkey, and even Italy, God knows what the result will be after they know, the minimum is to force China to enter the war to reduce the pressure on the Allied countries, the highest, maybe directly exposed, Forcing China to enter the war.
On the issue of China's non-participation in the war, the German top level also had some complaints, but in the end, a relatively unified opinion was formed, and China had China's considerations, and in terms of the relationship between Germany and China, it was not suitable for persecution, especially at present, under the premise that Germany still has a clear upper hand.
Take the United States as an example, Britain and France ceded a lot of American rights to the United States, in exchange for the United States to send troops, and the same is true for China, if Germany wants China to send troops thoroughly, it also needs to cede part of the European rights, which is what Germany hesitates about.
In the Northwest General Staff, the deduction of the First World War in the Middle East. It has been going on, the combat effectiveness of the 1 million Lanfang army. It is certainly inferior to the Northwest Field Army, but compared to the Allied army. But there is not much difference, if the Entente used the same number of troops, Lan Fang would definitely fall into a bitter battle. But this time, with the 300,000 vanguard troops, there are also a formed special operations division and 17 reconnaissance groups, a total of 80,000 special combat personnel, this is a real killer weapon, most of the regular army in Lanfang are special combat personnel, and most of the rest are teaching regiments, or high-level independent troops. Spread among the millions.
The special forces are a unique type of troops proposed by Yang Yuanzhao and formed after the practice of the northwest, and they are powerful units formed with the experience of later generations and the current strategic characteristics. 80,000 professionally trained soldiers in a complex, predetermined formation is a nightmare for any army, even the ordinary army in the northwest has some problems, let alone the Entente. Thanks to the reminder of the allies, pay a little attention to the time of the other party's landing, as long as it is after the landing time of the Lanfang army, you don't have to worry too much. Even if it's early, Zhou Zhengpeng's special forces can be used to intercept it.
Zhou Zhengpeng's special forces successfully completed the task of blocking the Allied forces. At present, the Lan Fang army has not yet landed, and a large-scale frontal battle has not yet begun. The special forces, having completed their mission in Baghdad, withdrew more than 800 people. After the end of the war in Baghdad, about 400 people came back one after another, almost hiding in underground bunkers, all of them have successfully returned, the army gathered in Baghdad, it is very difficult to do any action, the Entente troops can not all be in Baghdad, they keep advancing along the railway line, occupying a large number of cities, and therefore, the forces are scattered, plus there is no threat of war, the defense will inevitably be relaxed.
Special forces are originally suitable for operating in complex cities, they have had the experience of touching the city before, as long as it is not the strictest defense, they can always find an opportunity, after cleaning up the natives of Baghdad, the vigilance of the Entente troops has been reduced to the minimum, the explosion of the Chinese building, and the burial of thousands of people, as for whether those powerful soldiers died, then I don't know, anyway, the scene is a mess, and Mark is not in the mood to continue the investigation.
Then things are complicated, the task of cutting off the 3B railway is completed, but more than 200,000 sacrifices and wounded, in such a place hundreds of kilometers away from the Suez Canal, his pressure is not ordinary, and he spends every day in various quarrels, fortunately, the good news continues, along the 3B railway, most of the strategic points are occupied.
Detonated the China Building, the tallest building in Baghdad, more or less regrettable, but in order to keep it secret, it could only be detonated, with the ruins of the explosion, blocking the pursuit of the Allied troops, and by the way covering their whereabouts, in most of the Allied officers, think that the capable army has been completely annihilated, which Rondo has some doubts, after all, from the strength of the other party, it should not be so easy to burn the jade, and even in his investigation report, it was also found that When the Allied army attacked the Chinese building, the opponent's attack power and combat effectiveness were very significantly reduced.
Of course Rondo didn't say it, in fact, in his feelings, most of the officers still hope that this unit is dead, only a few thousand troops, but hundreds of thousands of troops have suffered a huge blow, really they still exist, let them pursue, who will pursue, there is only one way to the scene, that is, to go underground, if it is a complex building offensive, it will make them suffer, more complicated underground, no one wants to go.
In this way, most of the officers, including Rondo, made ostriches, only when this unit disappeared, in fact, Zhou Zhengpeng's troops had already passed through the underground and left Baghdad, and after self-destruction, the elevator would be blown up, and the special arrangement would make the upper floor of the elevator densely covered with hundreds of tons of rubble, and if they were not moved, it would be impossible to find the underground passage.
The purpose of the Entente to enter the Middle East to fight is to cut off the 3B railway, and the purpose of the Mark to completely occupy Baghdad is also for senior security, there is still no threat here, there will be no one to dig up the problem, let alone clean up the Chinese building, 11 floors, each floor is thousands of square meters, the thickness of the house is much higher than that of ordinary buildings, where tens of thousands of tons of things are piled up, even if the Entente itself is a corpse, no one will clean it up, let alone clean up the entire building.
Tens of thousands of tons of gravel are difficult to clean up in the 21st century, and in this era, there is no way, it is impossible to clean up these things with manpower alone.
Even Mark and the others, after confirming that the building had collapsed and were not in danger, just checked the periphery, and checked everything that could be detected on the periphery, and left the rest alone.
The underground passage is a separate passage, not related to the other underground passages in Baghdad, so it can only ensure the safety of the retreat to the China Building, which is the largest number of people in the planned China Building. In fact, the 20-kilometer-long underground passage is the safest in this era, with tens of thousands of tons of gravel on it, blocking the path of the pursuers, this underground road, located more than 10 meters underground, in this era, as long as there is no accurate information, who will do such useless work.
Even if there is no one to rescue them, with the quality of the special forces, it is not very difficult to leave Baghdad in the dead of night when they are lax, through underground waterways and a few hidden places, in the dead of night.
In fact, when he returned to the vicinity of Basra to recuperate, these soldiers came back one after another, and when Zhou Zhengpeng finally made an analysis of the battle examples, in the entire battle, among the 1,440 people, 74 people were killed and more than 330 people were wounded, most of the wounded were lightly injured, and only 22 people were seriously injured and disabled.
A war of more than 1,000 against 500,000 has even achieved nearly half of the enemy's annihilation, and the role of special forces has almost changed the course of the war.
In the world, there is no absolutely dense special forces such a dazzling force, as long as it goes to the mileage of the world war, it will definitely attract attention, and the northwest does not intend to dominate the project, you don't see, the backward and messy North Korea in the future generations, in the special forces this single item, is also a strong country as long as, to put it bluntly, the special forces are not too high in terms of technical requirements, and the logistics and equipment support is not too big, but with the people themselves, and even the test of the troops, it is really suitable for weak countries, but it is a warship, Aircraft carriers, airplanes, tanks, these things, for the technical requirements are extremely high, your level of science and technology, material level, and even processing ability, you can make it, otherwise, even if you know how much technology there is in the middle, what the principle is, and even put a component in front of you, you still can't draw it.
This year is known as the first year of the special forces in the future military history, although the history of the use of special forces in the northwest was a few years ago, and even the special forces went to the world battlefield, also in 1912, but those wars, because of one reason or another, the special forces did not independently participate in a regional war, but were more auxiliary, mixed with the regular army. Even the German special forces, formed with the help of China, won the victory of the perfect surprise attack on the Listeners, but it was a small-scale conflict, small in scale and short-lived.
This time the defense of Baghdad, the Turkish army was annihilated long ago, and the last defense force of Baghdad was lost in the shelling, from beginning to end, the special forces participated in the whole process of defending the city, in a textbook general, the characteristics of the special forces were vividly expressed, and great results were achieved, and since then, the special forces have begun to become a worldwide arms, in 1915, at least 7 different special forces, have been declared.
