Chapter 52: I Came Quietly

Off the coast of Kenya.

Under the cover of night, the huge fleet with the nuclear-powered aircraft carriers "George Washington" and the USS Nimitz as the core rode the wind and waves and advanced at full speed.

The Star-Spangled Banner on the mast flies high, symbolizing the supreme glory of the GLA (Global Liberation Army).

On deck, the aircraft carrier aircrew, dressed in vests of various colors, took their places.

The F-18E/F Super Hornet carrier-based fighter slowly drove into take-off position, the flame shield was raised high, and the steam catapult was against the nose landing gear of the fighter.

The roar of the Super Hornet began to increase in intensity, and the two General Dynamics F414-GE-400 turbofan engines spewed out a scorching tail flame that stood out in the night.

"Cougars ready, ask to take off!"

"The cougar can take off, and after takeoff, it enters the 027 route. ”

The aircraft carrier take-off commander in a yellow vest was in a half-squatting position, one hand was raised high, two fingers were stretched out, and after seeing the signal that the pilot was ready to take off, the aircraft carrier commander quickly bent his legs sideways and waved his arm to point in the direction of the fighter plane's take-off.

The fuselage of the fighter sank slightly, and with the help of the powerful thrust of the steam catapult, the Super Hornet, which was fully loaded with nearly 30 tons, was accelerated to a take-off speed of 200 nautical miles in a few seconds, and the fighter left the ship and lifted off.

In less than 10 minutes, the two aircraft carriers each released more than 10 F-18E/F "Super Hornet" fighters, and under the command of the E-2C "Hawkeye" early warning plane, which took off ahead of schedule, the Super Hornet formed a huge group of planes and flew towards the interior of Kenya.

At the same time, the V22 Osprey tiltrotor on the amphibious assault ship "Good Guy Richard" and the AH-64D "Longbow Apache" helicopter gunship that accompanied the escort mission also took off.

The "Osprey" was loaded with a large number of weapons, ammunition, food, and two companies of Marines, ready to support the American squad in crisis on the shores of Lake Albert.

After returning to the ground, Colonel Patrick immediately reported to Vice Admiral Fox, commander of the US Fifth Fleet on the amphibious command ship "Sagar", his discovery in the underground and the news of the arrival of the French troops.

……………………

Inside the amphibious command ship "Sagar", Vice Admiral Fox was talking with the staff officers beside him, and a Navy major got up and said: "Sir, the latest information from the Pentagon, two 093-class nuclear-powered submarines in the military port of China's South China Sea Fleet have left the port and their whereabouts are unknown. In addition, China has just announced that it will send an additional 18th escort fleet to the Gulf of Aden, consisting of two Russian-made 'Modern-class' missile destroyers of the East China Sea Fleet and one 054A missile frigate of the South China Sea Fleet. ”

Lieutenant General Fox frowned, and the Chinese were restless again. But this is also normal, whoever has suffered such a big loss, how can he be willing to give up!

However, in terms of the current strength of the Chinese Navy, in addition to the trouble that those two nuclear submarines can cause, surface ships coming to the Indian Ocean are also playing the role of soy sauce.

The Chinese warships currently escorting ships in the Gulf of Aden are the 16th and 17th escort fleets, which are mainly composed of one 052C China Aegis missile destroyer, two 054A missile frigates, a Kunlunshan dock landing ship, and a Qiandaohu comprehensive supply ship.

According to the original Jihua, after the 16th batch of escort fleets and the 17th batch of escort fleets handed over the escort tasks, they will directly return to China, but they did not expect that the Ugandan hostage incident suddenly occurred, so they stayed, and now the Chinese have sent the 18th batch of escort fleets, the purpose is self-evident.

According to photos taken by US military reconnaissance planes not long ago, this small fleet is cruising off the coast of Sudan.

Even with the addition of the 18th escort fleet that came to support, its strength is far from being able to compete with the US nuclear-powered aircraft carrier battle group.

As for the Chinese army and air force, Fox does not think about it at all.

It is not that the Chinese army and air force are not strong enough, but that they are simply weak.

Unlike France, China has a large number of military bases in Africa, and the air force needs to rely on air bases to exert its corresponding combat effectiveness.

As for the army, even if pro-China countries such as Sudan and Tanzania agree to the entry of the Chinese army, with dozens of Il-76 transport planes in the Chinese air force, they can only send a maximum of one regiment of troops at a time.

Fighting a modern land, sea and air war with the United States thousands of miles away will not make such a stupid decision unless the Chinese military's top brass has a collective brain flood.

The Chinese can be ignored, but the next two countries give Fox a bit of a headache.

The major continued: "All 24 Rafale fighters on the French Navy's aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle have been transferred to the French air base in Djibouti, and France has also sent 16 Mirage-2000 fighters to the Dakar base, and 12 Rafale and 12 Mirage-2000 fighters to the Chad base. The French Navy's Triumph-class ballistic missile nuclear submarines have left port for combat readiness cruises. In addition, Russia announced that it will set up an aircraft carrier battle group consisting of the "Kuznetsov" aircraft carrier and the "Peter the Great" nuclear-powered missile cruiser as the core, and another aircraft carrier battle group consisting of three "Glorious-class" missile cruisers, three "Modern" class missile destroyers, two "Dreadnought" class anti-submarine destroyers, two integrated supply ships, and three "Akula'" class attack nuclear submarines will enter the Atlantic Ocean cruise. “

………………

Kang Jianfei was wearing a thick gilly suit, hiding in a bush less than a kilometer away from the camp, holding a telescope to observe the camp of the US and French armies.

The small detachment of the Chinese Marine Corps stopped in a jungle about five kilometers from the camp and went into hiding.

As the only observer and sniper in the team, Kang Jianfei and Lao Wu were sent by the captain to reconnoiter near the camp.

The camp is brightly lit, and helicopters take off and land from time to time.

In the skies over this area, the parade between more than 10 US and French fighters continued, and the roar of the fighters was deafening.

However, between the current awkward relations between the United States and France, the pilots of both sides have been given strict orders not to fire.

Less than 800 meters away from the camp, two companies of French Foreign Legion paratroopers paratroopers parachuted down not long ago were swaggering and camping, faintly forming a confrontation with the Americans.

Kang Jianfei took a grassroots in his mouth, squeezed his teammates beside him with his hand, pointed to the sky and said, "Lao Wu, who do you say will win Lao Mei or Lao Fa?"

Lao Wu shook his head and did not speak.

Lao Wu is already a veteran who has been in the army for eight years, and the special sniper, Kang Jianfei, a first-class non-commissioned officer with only three years of military experience, is no different from a rookie in front of him.

When he first partnered with Lao Wu, Kang Jianfei once found a penetrating wound in Lao Wu's abdomen, and asked him how he was injured, Lao Wu didn't speak, just stared at him with eyes as sharp as hawk eyes, and it didn't take long for Kang Jianfei to talk about him with a weak heart.

Now Kang Jianfei has long been accustomed to the silence of his partner, and continued: "Have you heard......?

Kang Jianfei looked left and right, as if it would be taboo to say that name, and lowered his voice: "That's it...... The legendary 'Zero'. ”

Lao Wu's eyes flashed and he glanced at him.

Kang Jianfei still said to himself: "You know the Shi cannon of the third company, just like you, they are all snipers, and they have also participated in the military region competition and won the first prize. If you want me to say, that is, Lao Wu, you didn't go, otherwise the first prize would have a share of Shi Cannon. Hehe, as a result, the last time Shi Cannon participated in the selection, he had a simulated confrontation with Zero, and he was directly touched by someone and held a dagger against his neck, so scared that he almost peed his pants, haha......"

"You'd better not mess with them!" said Lao Wu suddenly in a hoarse voice.

Kang Jianfei was stunned for a moment, and seemed to be a little surprised, Lao Wu opened his mouth to talk to him, and asked, "They, what are you talking about...... Zero?"

Lao Wu turned his head and continued to stare at the scope, ignoring Kang Jianfei.

Kang Jianfei touched Lao Wu with his arm and asked with interest: "Alas, Lao Wu, have you fought with them, tell me what they look like, do they have three heads and six arms?"

……………………

When Kang Jianfei was chatting, he didn't notice that a black micro-drone was silently flying at a low altitude hundreds of meters above their heads.

quacked and laughed: "Old Bean, the Yankees and the French are playing so high, do you want us to join in?"

Not far away, a French Rafale M fighter and an American Super Hornet fighter are rolling and chasing away.

Chen Xin's eyes were a little hot, but he still knew the seriousness of the matter, and said: "Don't worry, there are still many opportunities, let's see what secrets are hidden in the camp first." ”

With Chen Xin's body, running to this place will only be looking for death, so similar to the last Fukushima nuclear power plant, got Chen Xin a pair of glasses, which allows him to share his visual and auditory patterns at any time, while Chen Xin himself is lying on the bed in the Kampala Hotel with glasses.

The steel hammer began to fly around the camp in a figure-8 shape, and the synthetic aperture radar loaded on board continued to build a three-dimensional data model of the camp.

Because the synthetic aperture radar signal can penetrate the surface and vegetation to obtain underground information and realize underground detection, the part of the underground passage close to the ground was soon found by the steel hammer.

"Haha, this should be it!"

The micro-drone slowly descended to the vent on the roof of the makeshift house, quickly turning back into the shape of a steel hammer, and the house was brightly lit and guarded by several American soldiers.

The steel exhaust fan of the underground vent made a whirring sound, and the steel hammer shrank its head, and suddenly catapulted over, and it took less than a fraction of a second to enter the passage.
