Using laser-guided bombs, combat personnel will not be able to be too close to the target area, and the buildings within the combat zone are very close, unable to land first and then guide the laser-guided bombs to bomb.
If bombing is carried out before parachuting, the dust generated from the explosion will last for a long time, and the dust will prevent parachuting, forcing combat personnel to land far away and initiate attacks from even greater distances.
However, there are significant advantages to bombing before attacking. Not only can the bombs eliminate the threat imposed by two buildings, but the dust from the explosions can completely cover a large nearby area, rendering enemies without night vision devices combat-ineffective."
After weighing the pros and cons, Gao Yang still decided to bomb first, then proceed with helicopter airdrops.
