Chapter 291: Set off in two ways
readx;
In fact, Ye Kai did not go to the Military Commission, and he was not allowed to be so ostentatious in terms of time. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
He secretly met with Rear Admiral Shan Liren, commander of the East China Sea Fleet, in Mingzhu City, to discuss the matter of smuggling strategic materials to Russia and returning home.
Major General Shan Liren is an officer of the Shaozhuang faction and a descendant of the old Ye family, so the reception place is in Ye Ziping's office, and Ye Ziping, a member of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee, replaces Comrade Jiang Cheng to announce the tasks of the Military Commission, which is also more in line with the procedure.
"Comrade Liren, this time the stakes are very high, and we must arrange it." Ye Ziping explained again and again.
"Please rest assured, the East China Sea Fleet is guaranteed to complete the mission!" Major General Shan Liren assured with a serious expression, his heart was also full of excitement, he didn't expect that this time he would play so big, he would go to Russia to pick up strategic materials, and it was a secret operation.
However, this operation is indeed enough to test people, from departure to destination, it will take almost a month, if it goes well, it will take another month to come back, a fleet has been adrift outside for so long, supply is a problem, funding is a problem, and the test of personnel is also a problem.
Although Shan Liren is not very clear about what ship he will take back this time, judging from the cautious attitude above, it should be a very important thing, otherwise it would not be a direct order from the Military Commission, and it is so mysterious.
"Externally, we will use the sign of visiting Russia, and there will be no problems." Ye Ziping said to Shan Liren, "After arriving at the destination, all actions are subject to the orders of Comrade Ye Kai, who is the special envoy of this operation. ”
"Yes." Shan Liren nodded in reply.
"This time, the risk should not be big, but for the sake of safety. Comrades should be demanded in accordance with wartime standards, and the relevant parties have already arranged for the supply along the way. Ye Kai said to Shan Liren, "Your existence." It's really just a strategic deterrent to make sure that we can get things back home. Of course, if anyone dares to obstruct it, they can consider using all extreme measures, and the country will cooperate closely. ”
"Yes, Comrade Envoy." Although Shan Liren knew that Ye Kai was Ye Ziping's son. But on this occasion, I really couldn't find a suitable name for a while, so I simply called him comrade envoy.
In fact, when the fleet is sailing long, material support is the first priority, especially the replenishment of oil, fresh water, food, etc., which is also a relatively large challenge to the physical strength and endurance of the combatants.
In fact, such a long journey was made after the establishment of the Navy. Not a few times either.
Purely from the perspective of training the team, this is also a rare opportunity, you must know that the current military budget is tight, especially the navy, the most expensive branch of the military, the possibility of being able to get the opportunity to fight is even smaller, generally in the coastal sea training, if you go far away, on the one hand, you must consider the international political influence. On the other hand, it's too expensive.
Ye Kai smiled and said, "You guys will set off soon, I'm another way." Fly to Moscow to do some business, and then keep in touch. ”
"Yes." Major General Shan Liren nodded.
However, he felt that this matter seemed a little strange, if it was just to pick up things, everyone would go over together, but judging from Ye Kai's performance, there should still be some insider information about this matter, but as a soldier, it is his duty to obey orders. He would never ask what he shouldn't.
"Prepare, leave as soon as possible, all the resources needed will be allocated in advance, and if you encounter any problems before departure, report to me directly." Ye Ziping said.
"Yes. Heads. After Major General Shan Liren responded, he asked. Has the Southeast Military Region received the notice? ”
The commander of the Southeast Military Region is none other than General Ye Zijian, Ye Ziping's eldest brother.
"He's been notified, you don't have to pay attention to it." Ye Ziping said.
After receiving the task, Rear Admiral Shan Liren hurried back to the fleet, and he needed to do some preliminary preparations to form a task force, including two missile destroyers, four frigates, and two conventionally powered submarines with long-range nuclear strike capabilities.
In fact, in terms of distance, it is more convenient to directly dispatch the South China Sea Fleet, but this time it is to send the East China Sea Fleet to carry out a mission, but there is also some consideration.
The earliest strategic goal of the East China Sea Fleet was to contain Okinawa and the Ryukyu Islands and contain some of the enemy's forces. From a geopolitical point of view, once the East China Sea Fleet blockades the East China Sea, it will also blockade the entire Yellow Sea, becoming the first line of defense of the North Sea Fleet, and also the first island coastal defense in the entire North China and East China.
The East China Sea Fleet is also mainly composed of submarines, missile boats, and some large surface warships, and is also equipped with naval aviation units and air protection to form a deterrent, deterrent, and containment force over the vast waters of the East China Sea.
As far as conventional submarines are concerned, the East China Sea Fleet is the most powerful fleet among the three major fleets.
Strengthening the submarine strength of the East China Sea Fleet is related to the characteristics of the waters of the Taiwan Strait in the defense zone of the East China Sea Fleet.
Because the sea area of the Taiwan Strait is narrow and covered by land artillery and short-range missiles, it is inconvenient for surface ships to move, and this sea area is a shallow water area, and the background noise under the water is large, which is not conducive to antisubmarine warfare and convenient for submarine activities.
It is precisely because of this reason that the above intends to hand over the nuclear submarines that they got back to the East China Sea Fleet for use, which can be regarded as a supplement to their strength.
Of course, the most important point is that Ye Kai proposed to get a large number of the other party's technical personnel back, which attracted the attention of the high-level, Ye Kai is willing to spend money to support these people, naturally no one will object, and now the high-level is discussing Ye Kai's proposal on the privatization of military enterprises, and the matter is likely to pass.
Once Ye Kai has made achievements in this area, the preferred partner is the East China Sea Fleet, because the East China Sea Fleet is not only under the direct jurisdiction of Uncle Ye Zijian, but also the most suitable fleet for submarine operations.
After Shan Liren left, Ye Ziping asked Ye Kaidao with concern, "This time, is it a big deal?" ”
In fact, Ye Ziping did not agree with Ye Kai's risky approach, it was too risky.
You must know that this kind of thing is equivalent to pulling out a tooth from the mouth of a tiger, and if you are not careful, you will fall into a situation where you will lose everything, and once the contact fails, it is impossible for the country to admit this kind of thing, and the relationship between the two countries may also undergo some changes because of this.
As far as the current Russia is concerned, there really does not have much good impression of the republic, and most people have a lot of negative impressions of the republic that adheres to the socialist road because of their hatred of the word socialism.
Therefore, Ye Kai went to Russia this time and planned such a big thing, which can be described as dangerous.
"Actually, there are not many risks, and I naturally have a way to protect myself." Ye Kai didn't show any fear of this, in fact, the reason why he was willing to go to the risk in person was because he was already relatively sure that he could do it.
Major Bout is indeed very mobile, and through the help of his father-in-law, KGB General Zyuanov, and the scattering of large sums of dollars, Major Bout has corrupted a considerable number of high-ranking generals in the former Soviet military.
The generals, who were dazzled by the dollar, had already become the enthusiastic partners of Major Bout at this time, and even dared to take out nuclear bombs and sell them to him, what else could not be done?
Moreover, this time, in fact, even the military did not know, they only thought that Major Bute wanted to get some titanium alloy scrap to sell to make money, which was not a big deal.
Today's Russia can be described as suffering from internal and external troubles, everyone's stomach is not full, where is the heart to care about the old equipment that has been sealed in the arsenal for a long time?
As for the shipyard, it was long since it was shut down, the workers were on the verge of starvation, and the secrets of the factory were known only to a few people, and these people had long since been conquered by Major Bout's dollars.
"In short, you have to be careful in everything, Russia is no better than at home." Ye Ziping knew that his son's idea was very firm, so he didn't say anything else, after all, this matter had been approved by the high-level leaders of the Military Commission and Comrade Fang He, and Comrade Jiang Cheng, the No. 1 leader, also nodded in support, even Old Man Ye was not easy to oppose.
In fact, Old Man Ye also supported Ye Kai's plan, and felt that he could try his luck in this matter.
Three days later, a fleet of ships of the East China Sea Fleet left the port, and at the same time, the State Department issued a message that at the invitation of the Russian military, the East China Sea Fleet formation would visit Russia and make friendly visits to some countries along the way.
The Pentagon of the United States has expressed concern in comparison, holding that the long-distance voyage of the East China Sea Fleet is intended to test the strength of the mainland's navy.
The British Intelligence Department has also taken active action to spy on inside information about the East China Sea Fleet's visit, and even a number of people in Hong Kong have frequent secret spy activities in an attempt to obtain detailed information on this matter through the channels of some mainland officials and children in Hong Kong.
All in all, the entire international situation has changed somewhat because of this incident.
Not long after the departure of the East China Sea Fleet, Ye Kai also quietly set off and flew directly from Mingzhu to Moscow.
This time, he is estimated to stay for more than a month, and he must wait for the East China Sea Fleet to pick up everything before he can return with confidence, and during this period, he also needs to deal with a lot of things, not only the problem of smuggling nuclear submarines this time, but also the fact that he will lay out economic plunder plans in Russia.
Now that the situation in Russia is turbulent, although the ruble is still holding on, it is estimated that it will not last long, and it is the right time to attack them at this time.
After all, because of the purchase of nuclear submarines, Ye Kai spent a lot of silver, and he had to find a way to make up for it, so he had to let the wool come out of the sheep. (To be continued)
