Text Chapter 89 Iga
As the time for the military exercises between China and the two countries approaches, the eyes of the world are focused on the South China Sea. For unknown reasons, perhaps in order to avoid the intensification of contradictions or misfire, neither China nor M has increased its troops in the South China Sea. However, in order to cope with the unexpected, the military deployments of both countries have been adjusted very frequently, but these movements have also been much more low-key than usual.
All because of the South China Sea.
In terms of military strength, the combat effectiveness of the three aircraft carrier formations of country M far exceeds that of the two fleets of China. It is really necessary to discuss in detail the combat effectiveness of the fleets of the two countries, because China does not have aircraft carriers to participate, and it lacks absolute air supremacy in the South China Sea, which is far from the mainland, and now the two fleets can compete with one aircraft carrier formation at best.
However, country M has three aircraft carrier formations, and the military strength ratio is basically 5:1, or even worse. The energy burst out of the three aircraft carrier formations is far from being as simple as one plus one, and they can form an absolute crushing momentum. If the Sino-M confrontation turns into a military conflict, no one will be optimistic about Huaguo, after all, before the arrival of Huaguo's support, it is likely that the two fleets will be completely paralyzed.
Although the exercise is located in the South China Sea, it has direct or indirect links with hundreds of millions of people on the planet, and many people are watching this conflict and are beginning to plan for their future.
On the Internet, netizens of the two countries launched-for-tat discussions, and anti-war demonstrations broke out in country M, but the call for a main war in China accounted for more than half. Many Chinese hackers formed a Red Army alliance and successively breached countless servers in country M, and even the Ministry of Defense and the White House were attacked by the strongest attacks in history.
***
South China Sea.
Johnny, commander of the first aircraft carrier formation of country M, looked at the situation map in the South China Sea in front of him with a pipe in his mouth, although his fleet directly faced the two fleets of China, but there was not the slightest nervousness in his eyes, and under his absolute strength, he showed confidence.
"General Michael, do you think the Chinese Congress is really in conflict with us?" Johnny asked a tall man in a general's uniform. This man was specially arranged by the Ministry of Defense to be here this time to coordinate military exercises, and some of the commands related to the conflict between the two countries, Johnny had to consult with Lieutenant General Mielke and obtain the consent of the other party.
"I guess not, unless they're in a bad brain. Although only your First Fleet is confronting them in close quarters, our Second and Third Carrier Formations are less than a hundred nautical miles behind us. In the event of a conflict, our warplanes and missiles will arrive in an instant. Lieutenant General Michael said. As a temporary officer delegated to the Ministry of Defense, Michael is tantamount to a minister here, and his speech inadvertently exudes a hint of arrogance.
Michael glanced at General Johnny meaningfully, and said with a smile: "Of course, with the two fleets of China, only General Johnny's fleet can easily defeat it, do you think they still dare to make a fuss?" Although he looked down on the rough and narcissistic general in front of him, he still complimented General Johnny after many years of ups and downs in officialdom.
"That's natural, it's not that I'm proud, the fighters on the Eagle aircraft carrier alone can make Huaguo's fleet incapacitated. It's 600 nautical miles from the Chinese mainland, and we're only 40 nautical miles from them. Even if they had a stronger military force, support would not be immediate. Johnny laughed.
"Yes, let's watch a good show today, watch them run back with their tails between their legs after the drill, will we still be intimidated by their drills. Lieutenant General Michael said.
"Shouldn't we cause them some trouble?" said Johnny, slyly.
"Causing trouble?" Vice Admiral Michael frowned: "Our fleet just keeps this distance from them, and those politicians in the White House don't want to really clash with China now." As for the exercise, let's just fire two cannons, and the shells are also taxpayers' money, aren't they?"
The two of them understand very well that although those politicians are arrogant in the military exercise of country M, they do not dare to easily go to war with a major country, so this military exercise is just a symbolic meaning. They only need to show their presence in the South China Sea, and they can just set off two guns at will to have some impact on the international community. This is exactly the same effect as a military exercise with great fanfare, so why waste so much effort?
Johnny glanced at Michael slyly and said with a smile: "No, we have allies now, we can let the warships of country R go on a trip to troubled waters, presumably they are also very willing." "For the ambition of country R, Johnny has been in Rong for so many years, how can he not understand the truth?
"Report, there is movement on the side of the Chinese fleet! The radar shows that three warships are heading towards the middle line of our two fleets!" A report suddenly came from the command cabin.
"The aircraft carrier reconnaissance plane will immediately take off to reconnoiter and mobilize satellites to monitor the sea area where we are now!" Johnny immediately gave the order. Such an order is within the scope of his duties, and will not cause a conflict between China and M, so naturally there is no need to consult General Michael.
As soldiers of country M, what they are most proud of is the ubiquitous high technology, and they can use technical means to beat any opponent at any time.
"General Michael, what do you mean by that?" Commander Johnny laughed.
"I don't know yet, but it definitely won't be an attack on us. If they want to attack us, there are many covert means that can be used, which is far more effective than sending a few warships, but we can't afford to be on guard!" General Michael said without a drop of water.
Johnny smiled, he admired Michael a little, and the other party's judgment of many things often coincided with him, but he was a little pedantic: "Attention to the whole fleet, enter the first level of combat readiness!"
"We have discovered that there are three warships of the Chinese country heading in the direction of our fleet, and we have ordered the destroyer Iga of the country of R to check on them, and we must not let the warships of the Chinese country cross the median line. Johnny then gave another order.
Now that country R has participated in their joint exercise, as the supreme commander of the exercise, Commander Johnny can naturally give orders to the warships of country R participating in the exercise.
Sure enough, after receiving the order, the Iga rushed out as he expected, as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, and any time he wanted to be in the limelight was a concrete embodiment of this nation.
It has to be said that the military response capability of the M Army is very efficient, and in a short period of time, the satellite detection picture has been transmitted to the large screen in the command module.
"What is this?" Johnny frowned. On the vast South China Sea ocean, three bright spots draw a graceful arc on the sea surface. The satellite also identifies the white dot's traversal and estimated routes with solid and dashed red lines, respectively.
Seeing that the opponent's navigation trajectory actually cut to the middle line of the confrontation between the two armies.
The image kept zooming in, and finally the outline of three white dots appeared, and it turned out to be three tugboats dragging three warships. Three tugboats were very powerful, and they dragged three warships to a speed of thirty knots. At this rate, it would only take them forty minutes to reach the middle line of the confrontation between the two armies.
"Report, our reconnaissance plane has discovered the target, it is three tugboats towing three warships, and they are heading towards our side at a speed of thirty knots. However, judging by their trajectory, it should not break through the middle line. "The reconnaissance results of the reconnaissance aircraft were fed back in a timely manner, and they were exactly the same as the satellite reconnaissance results.
"The Iga will intercept the three warships of China near the middle line, and remember not to cross the middle line!" Johnny then gave another order.
"General, it has been ascertained that the three towed warships are retired Poseidon-class destroyers from Huaguo, with a displacement of 8,000 tons and extremely strong hull armor. However, these three destroyers have long been scrapped, and even the power system has been dismantled. "The intelligence officers quickly put a piece of information in front of them.
"Target ship!" Johnny and General Michael looked at each other strangely, and exclaimed in surprise. When they realized Huaguo's purpose, the two of them laughed dumbly.
"Target ships?" Johnny rolled his eyes, and casually clicked on the command system: "Order the AWACS aircraft to take off and make every effort to collect electronic intelligence on the attacks of the three target ships." ”
"The satellite system comprehensively monitors the waters of the South China Sea and the southern part of China, and gives timely warning of dangers when they are found!"
"The first echelon of fighters rises into the air and receives combat orders at any time!"
"The missile warning system is fully open. ”
……
One order after another was given by Johnny, and there was a hint of admiration in Michael's eyes on the side, and Johnny was not in vain to become the commander of the aircraft carrier formation. Just from such a trivial matter as discovering the opponent's target ship, Johnny can react so much, and find ways to grab the maximum benefit from all kinds of impossibilities, but it is difficult for ordinary people to do so.
"I'd like to see what kind of surprise attack the Hua will have, but ordinary means can't scare us! Johnny glanced at Michael.
The Iga was moving at full speed, and the bridges of the three scrapped destroyers of China could already be seen in the telescope's line of sight, both of which were no more than ten nautical miles away from the median line.
"Thirty knots, twenty degrees to the left rudder, give me a detour, as long as the opponent dares to cross the middle line, immediately sink the opponent for me!" Commander Yokogi Ichiro had a sly look in his eyes.
"Sir, do you want to report to country M for the exercise ~ commander-in-chief?" said a short man who looked like an adjutant on the side.
"No, don't, as soon as the other side crosses the middle line, immediately open fire and sink it. Anyway, these target ships of theirs will be sunk sooner or later, so what does it matter if we sink them for them?" Ichiro Yokoki said in a deep voice.
"However, will this provoke Hua Guo to retaliate!" the adjutant continued.
"What are you afraid of, there are three aircraft carrier formations behind us, after sinking the opposing warship, let's immediately hide behind the aircraft carrier formation!" Yokogi Ichiro said with a strange laugh.
"Hide behind the aircraft carrier formation?" The adjutant showed a thoughtful expression, and then suddenly said: "The commander is really famous, as long as he hides behind the aircraft carrier formation, country M will definitely not sit idly by, unless they don't have a face!"
