Chapter 214 I have a bold idea to ask for a monthly ticket]
The entire war room seemed to be imposed by Sun Wukong, and only the air conditioner was blowing "rattle" and everyone was stunned and there was no movement for half a minute.
Are the four fully equipped standing brigades, more than 200 tanks and 28,000 brave Jewish warriors just gone?
You know, the first three Middle East wars combined, Israel has not died so many people:
In the First Middle East War, Israel faced a group fight between five countries, with the worst casualties, with more than 6,000 casualties;
In the Second Middle East War, Israel suffered less than 100 casualties;
In the Third Middle East War, Israel suffered 3,000 casualties;
Three times before and after, less than 10,000 casualties!
Israel's standing troops do not exceed 200,000, while the Egyptian Air Force swallowed 14% in a mad manner. This is really painful!
After a long time, General Elazar, the chief of staff, came to his senses and tapped the table with his knuckles.
Everyone woke up as if they were dreaming and watched them together.
"Everyone, Israel has reached the most critical moment since its founding, but as the brain of the army, we cannot panic. We must always be sober and strive for our country to the end!"
Everyone said in unison:
"Fight for the country to the end!"
General Elazar looked around for a while and said in a deep voice:
"We don't care about the Sinai Peninsula now... Egypt's style of play must be in harmony with Syria's attacks, and we only have seven brigades near the Golan Heights. If Syria uses the same tactics..."
Everyone's faces changed drastically. Although the Syrian Air Force was not as good as Egypt, it should not be underestimated. If they imitated Egypt to do this, who could withstand it?
Elazar said:
"So, we must concentrate our efforts to drive the Syrians out of the Golan Heights first, and then free up our hands to deal with the damn Egyptian ghosts!"
This time, the General Staff achieved a high degree of unity.
There are three armored brigades and two mechanized brigades in the Sinai Peninsula. It is indeed difficult to fight against the Second Egyptian Army. The Third Legion, but it is still possible to delay the obstacle for a period of time.
However, the danger in the Golan Heights is urgent. Once the Golan Heights are lost, the Syrian armored forces will go straight to the plains, and they will really be destroyed!
Elazar ordered:
"Cancel the bombing of the west bank of the Suez Canal and instead bomb the Golan Heights. Nine brigades prepared to rush to the Sinai Peninsula will be allocated to the Golan Heights!"
As for the five brigades stranded in the Sinai Peninsula...
The brave David can only ask for blessings!
He was determined to take action first and then report. After the order was conveyed, General Elazar drove to the Prime Minister's Office to report military information to his grandmother, Mrs. Meir.
Grandma is old, can she bear it?
Mrs. Meir was with the "one-eyed general" Dayan, and their faces were both very sad and angry. Obviously, Mossad also notified Mrs. Meir at the same time. Seeing Elazar coming, Dayan immediately stood up and said in pain:
"General Elazar, I was wrong!"
Elazar walked over quickly, holding his hand and said:
"No, no, no, don't say that... All this has happened now and is irreversible. You are the greatest military strategist since the founding of Israel. Never be discouraged. The brave David is still waiting for you to lead them to fight a beautiful turnaround!"
Tears shed from the only remaining eyes of Dayan, and he said excitedly:
"General Elazar, please give me a gun. I am going to Sinai. I am going to get the executioners who slaughtered the Israelites in blood and repay their blood!"
Mrs. Meir stood up tremblingly and pulled him and said:
"Dayan, it's not until that time, Elazar is right. We can't get out of our way. Are you inferior to me, an old lady?"
Dayan helped her wipe her tears, helped Madame Meir sit back, and stood by herself.
Mrs. Meir took a deep breath and her face returned to her firmness and calmness:
"Sit all, now I want to hear the generals' views on this war from a military perspective. Does Israel still have hope of winning?"
The talks lasted until late at night. When sweating Dayan and Elazar walked out of the Prime Minister's Office, their eyes were full of confidence, and...
A trace of fear!
Mrs. Meir's last words seemed to be still lingering in their hearts:
"Since the world has abandoned the Jews, the Jews can abandon the world!"
While Israel received the news, the "Center 10" was already discussing the issue of rewards.
Mubarak was very generous and explained the forward tactical ideas of "Kobe Bryant" on the "saturation strike" theory in his telegram in large quantities, and recommended this heroic pilot with "extreme strategic genius" to serve in the Air Force General Staff.
This proposal was unanimously endorsed by the Chief of Staff, the Minister of Defense and the Minister of Operations.
But President Sadat did not approve it, which was a bit weird.
What they didn't know was that at the end of the first meeting, Sadat invited Li Kuiyong to serve in the General Staff, but he ruthlessly refused.
The General Staff doesn't even look down on him, so how could he go to the Air Force General Staff?
Seeing the three people on the other side, Sadat smiled and said:
"Don't worry about Kobe Bryant's future. The 101 Squadron needs him, the Egyptian Air Force also needs him, and he needs freedom... Now we can discuss Major General Mubarak's achievements. I think he can be promoted to Lieutenant General. What do you think?"
Although they are quite dissatisfied with the president skipping "Kobe Bryant", the president has a strong reputation and they can't do anything. But Mubarak's promotion is indeed unreasonable to refute.
Since the establishment of the Republic of Egypt in 1952, no general has achieved such outstanding military achievements as annihilated 28,000 enemy troops at one time!
Even if you skip the lieutenant general and directly become promoted to the general, it is more than enough!
The three of them looked at each other, and Chief of Staff Shazli said:
"His Excellency the President, Major General Mubarak is a popular promotion to Lieutenant General. I think you can hold a press conference and it is time for the Egyptian people to know the great victory and supreme glory achieved by the frontline soldiers and General Mubarak!"
President Sadat smiled slightly:
"As you wish!"
The three of them were about to leave, and Sadat called them again:
"Wait a moment, I don't think the ground forces should waste these two perfect results. Should we do something during this precious time?"
Minister of Operations Jamas's eyes lit up:
"What do you mean?"
Sadat:
"I have a bold idea to order the boat bridge troops to broaden and strengthen the pontoon bridge. After the Second and Third Legions cross the river, all twenty Sam-6 air defense companies and four Sam-7 air defense regiments must be transported to the other side!"
Chief of General Staff Shazli said with concern:
Chapter completed!
