The last air war between piston propellers
Recently, the national football team 5-0 victory over the Maldives is also considered to be the national football team's long-awaited victory, the national football team was blacked out for so long can also be relieved, the big price to buy the coach Ripley and a number of foreign aid did not count on listening to a sound,
China's fans are also considered to be the world's best fans it can be moved on the mouth do not do anything about it ~
And foreign fans are very impulsive, a bunch of fireworks easily turned the stadium into a battlefield, and each other look at each other the two teams fans must have strangled each other to death. Foreign fans are very impulsive, a bunch of fireworks easily turn the stadium into a battlefield, and each other do not see eye to eye of the two teams of fans are sure to pinch each other to death
But today do not talk about these small fights, today to give you a popularization of a soccer caused by the two countries between the real war.
In 1969 held the World Cup Americas qualifiers, the same Central and South America, Honduras and El Salvador for the 1970 World Cup group in Mexico and played unusually fierce
Honduras and El Salvador's first match on June 8, 1969, the game was a stalemate, due to the night before the game, the Honduran fans in the El Salvador team stayed in front of the The night before the game, Honduran fans were banging and drumming in front of the hotel, making as much noise as the square dancers in the country, so the Salvadoran team couldn't sleep.
And in the end, Honduras beat El Salvador 1-0 on an 89th-minute goal.
So the heart hanging in the throat for an hour and a half of the two sides of the fans broke out in a fierce conflict
June 15 in El Salvador in the second group stage, before the game, the Salvadoran fans learn Honduran people in the hotel trouble and smash the field, the game, Salvadoran people hoist the Honduran flag on the whole up a broken white cloth.
El Salvador beat Honduras 3-0, and Salvadoran fans raised their eyebrows and beat each other up at the stadium with Honduran fans, insulting each other's ugly-looking flags (don't they all look the same?).
Salvadorian fans also threw dead rats and rotten eggs at Honduran players in the ball, Honduran coaches said afterwards on the bulletproof bus that although they lost the game, but came back unharmed and very happy ~
June 29, 1969 the two countries of El Salvador's life-and-death battle to a 3-2 victory over Honduras. On the same day El Salvador due to the previous games Honduras beat and deported more than 10,000 Salvadoran immigrants so El Salvador announced that it had broken off diplomatic relations with Honduras, and the two sides began a military standoff
By July 14th Salvador decided to make the first move, and the soccer wars broke out.
SAF F-4U Corsair escort C-47 transports converted bombers airstrike some of the first Honduras before the important place, especially the Tongkanding airfield. This did not allow the Honduran Air Force to take off to meet the attack in the first place.
Two Salvadoran forces of 12,000 men then invaded Honduras in a north-south invasion that was quite devastating. The next day they approached Tegucigalpa, the capital of Honduras (actually, they advanced about 30 kilometers)
The Organization of American States panicked and tried to mediate the war, but the Salvadorans didn't feel like they were out of breath yet, so the high-flying Salvadorans rejected the offer of peace talks and continued to fight.
By the third day of the war, July 16, the Honduran air force, aided by neighboring Nicaragua, finally came around, and warplanes took off to bomb El Salvador's capital, the Ilopango airport, and surrounding oil refineries, as well as El Salvador's largest oil storage base, the port of Acajutla.
On the fourth day, July 17, the two air forces got together and pinched each other when they didn't like each other. There's not much to be said for two small countries' air forces fighting each other in a chicken fight, but this was the 1970s. But this is the 1970s, most of the world has long entered the jet age. However, the air force planes of these two countries are very outdated propeller planes left behind by the United States in World War II.
All American electric fan airplanes in the two countries in the air over the death of the pinch, F4U Corsair death dislike P51 Mustang, T-28 Trojan battle AT-6 Texan, a vote of South American countries to see the stupidity of all
Honduran Fernando Soto piloted the number 609 Corsair shot down three El Salvador planes, Honduran people as a national hero
The Americans probably couldn't have dreamed of this~ This was the last war in the world where both sides used propeller planes
And as the war progressed, the situation became more and more stalemate, and more and more unfavorable to both sides, with the Salvadoran air force suffering a big loss and its strength diminished, and the Hondurans never being able to drive the Salvadorans out of the country due to their numerical disadvantage and lack of ammo.
In the Organization of American States intervention and mediation, the two sides and the two sides signed a cease-fire agreement on July 18, 1969 to July 20, the two sides formally cease-fire, El Salvador's army on August 2, all withdrawn from the country.
This six-day soccer war was also called the "100-hour war" or "South American six-day war", both sides are losers.
Sa's side suffered 700 to 900 deaths, most of them civilians, while Hong's side suffered 1,000 to 2,000 casualties, of which about 250 were military and the rest civilians.
Since most of the war was fought in Honduras, thousands of Hondurans were left homeless. Salvadorans also had to deal with returning refugees after the war. The war also brought trade between El Salvador and Honduras to a virtual standstill, the border was closed, and the economies of both countries suffered greatly. The Central American ****same market was also shut down for 12 years as a result.
By all accounts, these two countries are small Central American countries, planting rubber and digging for oil in the U.S. backyard, and they should be living in peace and harmony. This war is because the two countries play soccer kicks anxious to fight? Of course not, soccer is just an excuse.
The reason for this is that South America is still the oldest problem. El Salvador in South America has little land and a lot of people, and a lot of land and wealth is in the hands of farm owners. A large number of landless poor Salvadorans were forced to migrate to Honduras. Honduras influx of more and more Salvadorans seriously impacted the development of Honduran agriculture, damage to the interests of a large number of farmers also caused social unrest in Honduras.
And Honduras will be these no money and no land is the refugees back to El Salvador more plans for the Salvadoran social conflict. The war was just a way for the South American military dictatorship to ease social conflicts and divert people's attention, so there was this absurd scene, the two countries for a few games of football to tie up a chokehold.
And by the 1970 Mexico World Cup main round, Honduras lost 0-3 to Belgium, 0-4 to Mexico, 0-2 against the Soviet Union, El Salvador did not score a goal directly out of the game. (Points and goals conceded are the same as the '02 Chinese team, manually funny)
