Chapter 2661

Charlie and Faisal passed through the central square together, and the roar of diesel generators in

his ears became more and more deafening.

Under such a loud mechanical noise, ordinary people have difficulty talking, so that many other

voices around them are covered up. This is a good thing for Charlie, even if something happens in

the rescue and pursuit later. When someone yells by accident, it is hard to be spotted by outsiders.

So Charlie asked Faisal next to him: “How long does your diesel generator set usually work?”

Faisal hurriedly said respectfully: “Because the government army cut off our electricity supply, all our

electricity is supplied by a set of 50-kilowatt diesel generator sets. It also has a power storage

device.”

“Because the electricity consumption during the day is generally low, we generally do not use

motors during the day. We use power storage devices to ensure that the necessary devices operate

normally during the day. The generator sets will be turned on after dark, mainly for lighting and

other purposes. The electric device, and then charge the storage device.”

“It opened early today, mainly because of the poor sunlight on rainy days.”

Charlie asked curiously, “If you make this place brightly lit at night, aren't you afraid that the

government will send planes to bomb it?”

Faisal explained: “In Syria, whether it is the government army, the opposition, or the Kurdish armed

forces, 90% of all wars are ground wars. The planes in the hands of the government forces have

long been attacked. Now, the remaining few old fighter planes are guarding Damascus and the

southern province of Dar“a. They don't dare to send them out to fight, and we have a large number

of civilians here. If they send planes to attack indiscriminately, they will surely arouse public anger.

At that time, it will be more beneficial to our opposition.”

Charlie nodded lightly.

The war in his understanding is a modern war based on the Gulf War pattern.

The core of modern warfare is dominated by the air force, supplemented by the navy and army.

Just like the United States fighting in Iraq, the two armies do not need to engage in short-handed

combat. First use fighter jets to fight and seize air supremacy, and then use bombers to carry

precision-guided bombs to destroy the enemy's key defense forces and military industry one by

one. , After the opponent is completely paralyzed, a large number of ground troops directly rush in,

and they will be able to drive straight into the direct occupation.

However, it now appears that in places like Syria, the method of warfare is basically the same as that

of World War II. The two armies mainly rely on the ground forces to fight head-on, and the air force

can have little influence.

Charlie remembered that Faisal was the captain of the armored brigade, so he asked him: “Faisal,

since 90% of the wars here are ground wars, then your armored brigade must have an extraordinary

identity and status?”

Faisal nodded and said truthfully: “Our two most important forces are the armored squadron and

the flying squadron. However, the flying squadron only has four armed helicopters, so the main

combat effectiveness still depends on my armored squadron.”

Charlie asked curiously: “Faisal, since you can be the captain of the armored brigade, should you

rank higher in this armed force?”

Faisal said hurriedly: “Actually, my armored squadron was completely commanded and dispatched

by the commander during the war. The reason why I was able to lead a squadron was also that I

knew more about tanks, so I acted more as an instructor. The role does not have much real power.”

Charlie nodded lightly. Since the armored brigade is the core combat power here, it is reasonable to

be dispatched directly to the commander.

Under the leadership of Faisal, Charlie came outside a courtyard wall made of loess. At this time, the

courtyard was full of voices, and the communication between people was basically by shouting.

Moreover, Charlie found that the languages they spoke were different. Some

spoke English, some spoke French, and some others spoke a language that he

didn’t understand at all. It should be Arabic.
