Chapter 1881: Bombing by mistake

"Ring, ring, ring~~" The phone rang suddenly.

Seeing the red telephone ringing in the ring, everyone's brows suddenly wrinkled: This is a special line for contact with the US military's Osan Air Base, this is ......

"Hello, I'm Yoon Kwang-woong, Minister of Defense of the Republic of Korea, who are you?" Yin Guangxiong picked up the phone, frowning.

"Minister Yoon, I'm Stuart, the commander of the U.S. Air Force Base in Osan Air Base," an angry roar on the phone made all the officials of the South Korean Ministry of Defense in the entire hall hear clearly, and Stuart's huge anger seemed to be able to pass through the telephone line and directly burn everything in front of Yin Guangxiong and others. "Minister Yin, why are you firing anti-aircraft missiles at us? I solemnly warn you, you had better give me a reasonable explanation."

After a pause, "Also, think about the consequences for yourselves."

After speaking, without waiting for Yin Guangxiong to say anything, Stuart on the other end of the phone hung up the phone with a "snap".

What do you mean? We fired anti-aircraft missiles at the planes of the Americans? How is this possible? Hearing Stuart's words, the first reaction of all the South Korean Defense Ministry officials present was: How is this possible to be ridiculous?

As an ally of the United States, South Korea has a friend-or-foe identification system installed on its weapons systems, and under the effect of this system, the automatic/intelligent weapons launched by various weapon systems within the allies will not attack the combat platforms of the allies, not to mention whether South Korea has the courage and courage to launch anti-aircraft missiles at American planes, just saying that these air defense missiles are impossible to hit American planes when launched, right?

But is it nonsense to say that Stuart? This possibility was also instantly thrown into the back of Yin Guangxiong and others: in the exchanges between countries, who dares to make jokes of this magnitude

And also...... Yin Guangxiong frowned, his face gloomy, "Gentlemen, can any of you give me an explanation, what's going on?" ”

A group of senior officials of the South Korean Ministry of National Defense, you look at me, I look at you, they are all stunned and frightened: yes, what the hell is going on?

"Mr. Minister, Mr. President, I want you to call him immediately and explain what happened tonight when our side used air defense radar to irradiate and launch air defense missiles to attack US fighters on routine training missions." At this time, the secretary came over and whispered to Yin Guangxiong.

After Stuart informed the US High Command in South Korea that his planes at the base had been maliciously irradiated by unknown South Korean air defense radars and that they had used anti-aircraft missiles to attack, the US High Command in South Korea was immediately facing a great enemy

Although I don't know exactly what happened, it has always been the American character, that is, no matter what happens, the initiative must be in my hands first.

Based on this principle, the US High Command in South Korea immediately issued an urgent order to all US military bases stationed in South Korea to immediately enter a state of first-class alert

At the same time, after making the corresponding arrangements, the US Supreme Command in South Korea immediately lodged a protest with the South Korean Government and the South Korean Ministry of Defense -- it was a protest rather than an ultimatum -- if it could not quickly and immediately stop such malicious hostile and offensive acts and give a clear and reasonable explanation to the US High Command in South Korea, the US High Command in South Korea would launch a self-defense counterattack against South Korea with the authorization and permission of the US Department of Defense.

These words are almost equivalent to a declaration of war and the severance of diplomatic relations between the two countries.

——————————————————————

"Sir, we're in trouble."

In the command hall of the U.S. Department of Defense, it was as if war was coming, and everyone was like facing a great enemy. When Mr. Rumsfeld was found, it was as if he had found the backbone, and inexplicably, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"What's going on? Tell me a little bit about it. Rumsfeld didn't ramble and asked directly.

"Two of our fighters stationed at Wusan Air Base in South Korea who were on a routine simulated training mission were flying in the airspace near Osan City, Gyeonggi Province, South Korea, when they were scanned by a ground-based air defense radar of unknown origin, and they had just fired anti-aircraft ......missiles at our planes," he paused, and the deputy continued, "The two pilots are fine for the time being." ”

Everyone's hearts were heavy, and Rumsfeld frowned: The two pilots are fine now, but who knows what the situation will be in the next moment? And most importantly, "how did the South Korean side explain this?" ”,

"The South Korean side did not deploy any radar or other military weapons in that place without telling us, nor did they fire missiles at our fighters, they insisted that there was a problem with the system on our side," after a pause, the deputy continued, "In addition, Osan Air Base has entered a state of first-level alert, and all the bases of the entire US military stationed in South Korea have also entered a first-level alert state." ”

Hearing that all the U.S. military headquarters in South Korea had entered a state of first-level alert, Rumsfeld's heart fell back a little, and he waved his hand, "Connect those two unlucky children to me immediately, I need to know their current situation immediately"

"Yes"

Long before Rumsfeld came, the Pentagon had already connected the data of the two unlucky F-15 fighters through the data link system, and upon hearing Rumsfeld's order, the technicians immediately transmitted the image and sound information to the central information screen.

The current position of the two F-15 fighters, their flight paths, the geographical and map data below, and satellite information...... and other information, immediately presented in front of everyone.

"Kids, I'm Secretary of Defense Donald." Picking up the hand microphone handed over by the staff next to him, Rumsfeld unconsciously moved his fingers and asked the two unlucky children, "How is your situation now?" Got rid of that damn anti-aircraft missile? ”

"Mr. Minister, not yet, but we haven't gotten rid of him either, and now, we're trying to figure out a way." The loudspeakers at the scene vividly reflected the current physical condition of the pilots of Wolf Cub No. 1 and Wolf Cub No. 2: the breathing of the two people was already a little disordered, and it was obvious that the previous series of maneuvers to dodge the two anti-aircraft missiles was a huge burden on their physical fitness.

The pilot is fine for the time being, Rumsfeld breathed a sigh of relief and pressed his hand again, "Children, I believe you will be able to succeed in the end...... Now we are actively communicating with the South Korean government and the Ministry of National Defense to ensure your safety, rest assured, if necessary, we will do whatever it takes. ”

"Thank you, Mr. Minister...... Oh my God," Wolf Cub One suddenly screamed

The hearts of Rumsfeld and others suddenly sank: What's going on? Hit by a missile?

Just when everyone was guessing in their hearts, the voice of the pilot of the young wolf No. 1 finally sounded like the rest of his life, "It's dangerous"

It turned out that he had just escaped a danger. Hearing the words of Wolf Cub No. 1, everyone breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, but in the blink of an eye, the heart that had just been put down was lifted again: Obviously, although Wolf Cub No. 1 and Wolf Cub No. 2 had just escaped a danger, they were still in danger.

The situation is critical

Putting down his hand, Rumsfeld's face turned serious, "Immediately connect me to Mr. President, I need to get Mr. President's authorization, based on the current situation, I think ...... The possibility of war is not ruled out"

Although it is not clear why the South Koreans did this, this does not prevent Rumsfeld from making a judgment that no matter what the reasons for the South Koreans to do this, they just did it, and that is enough

For Americans, being slapped by their own minions is an unspeakable humiliation, and it must be taught a hard lesson, otherwise none of the younger brothers below will dare to come over and slap themselves a few times, where will their boss's face go?

When the call came to the White House, George W. Bush, who had been in a good mood for the past few days, was almost shocked by the news and fell directly out of bed, "Are South Koreans crazy?" How dare they do that? ”

"Mr. President, I don't know if Koreans are crazy or not, but I know that if we don't react immediately, the two children will be in trouble, and most importantly, if this is something that Koreans have been planning for a long time, we will be really in trouble. So......" Rumsfeld paused, "Mr. President, in order to prevent trouble, I need your authorization, and I like you to sign the order to immediately mobilize the Seventh Fleet to South Korea, and put tremendous pressure on the South Koreans militarily." ”

"Yes, Donald, you're right" George W. Bush nodded, and the top priority now is how to put huge military pressure on the South Koreans to force them back to the negotiating table - as for why they dared to do this before, it is not a question, the problem is that the situation must be under the control of the United States. ,

That's the most important thing.

————————————————————————

South Korea's presidential office and Ministry of National Defense are almost going crazy at the moment.

They do not understand at all why the Americans simply encountered the irradiation of the South Korean ground-based air defense radar system, and their own side also launched an air defense missile to attack, and the Ministry of Defense has repeatedly verified, and the place where the Americans said that the air defense missile was launched is indeed the location of the city hall of Osan City, Gyeonggi Province, South Korea, and how can it be possible to install air defense radar and air defense missiles?

But the question is, will the Americans joke with such things? Neither the then South Korean President Roh Jung-hyun nor the Minister of Defense Yoon Kwang-woong believed that the Americans would joke with such a thing...... Is it something that is deliberately done by some violent elements in the country, or by some people who want to subvert the government?

Lu Zhenxuan and Yoon Guangxiong glanced at each other, and at the same time a spirit: If this is the case, it is not impossible

Once a suitable reason was found for this matter, then the next thing was much easier to say, and the two immediately sketched a shape for this matter:

Some countries have secretly supported some people in a vain attempt to break relations between South Korea and the United States by attacking US fighter jets, so that they can profit from it

What are some of these countries? There is no doubt that North Korea is the most likely, because in the event of a rift of this magnitude between South Korea and the United States, it will be North Korea that will benefit the most

Moreover, only North Korea's weapons do not have the internal identification system between the United States and their allies, and can be recognized by the identification system on U.S. fighter jets.

At this point, in the eyes of Roh Jung-hyun and Yoon Kwang-woong, the whole thing is almost imminent: the evil North Korea, somehow entered the government of the Republic of Korea, and became a fairly high-level government official in the formation system - and most likely a high-ranking official of the Osan city government in Gyeonggi Province - and then used his privilege to sneak these damn weapons in and secretly deploy them to the city hall of Osan City, Gyeonggi Province, at this time, Secretly did such an evil thing.

Well, this idea, although there are still many problems, but now it seems that it can even be called full of loopholes, but it is the only suitable reason that can be found at this stage, otherwise all this will not make sense at all...... A lame reason, he's a reason after all, isn't it? It's better than not even having a lame reason at all.

…………………………………………………………

When Roh Jung-hyun and Yoon Kwang-woong informed the US Supreme Command in South Korea of the analysis of the incident by the South Korean Government and the Ministry of National Defense, the US High Command in South Korea was also dumbfounded.

However, after an analysis of the situation, the US High Command in South Korea had to think that this analysis was very reasonable, and if based on the current situation, it seemed that this explanation and reason were the only excuses and reasons that could be said in the past, but at this time, the news from the Wolf Cub No. 1 and Wolf Cub No. 2 in front of him suddenly gave the US High Command in South Korea and almost fainted

The two F-15 fighters, who had already gotten rid of the damn anti-aircraft missile, returned in a rage and razed the spot where the ground-based air defense radar had been found with the weapons carried by the fighters

If it had been even 10 minutes ago, Stuart would have applauded the actions of the two pilots, but now ...... Stuart didn't even know what to say: when a third possibility arose...... On weekdays, it's just a female student, it's not a big deal, but you can blow up people's city halls, what can I do?

————————————————————————

Personnel from the ROK government and military who received the report from the US side immediately rushed to the place where the Americans had sworn that they had found the air defense radar to verify the bombing situation.

When the South Koreans went to verify and saw the tragic situation at the scene, they couldn't cry without tears: not only the city hall of Osan City, Gyeonggi Province, but even the surrounding buildings were turned into a piece of rubbish -- two American GIs who had a grudge in their hearts at that time threw away all the weapons on the two F-15 fighters that could be used to fight the enemy. ,

Although there are no detailed casualty figures yet, it is surrounded by commercial and residential areas, and the incident happened during the day, and it is estimated that the number of casualties is at least hundreds, plus property damage...... Kim Seung-hwan, who appeared here as the special envoy of South Korean President Roh Jung-hyun, was about to fall to the ground as soon as his eyes darkened......

This loss will be at least more than 1 billion US dollars, and the most important thing is that the loss of money is still a small problem, and the reputation of the US military stationed in South Korea in the mouth of the South Korean people has always been not very good, and the call to drive out the American GIs and shout the past has been getting more and more intense over the years, and now there has been such a serious "accidental bombing" incident, if Mr. President does not give the people a satisfactory explanation, then let alone dismiss the president, and even the angry people tear the president alive It is not impossible.

The staff members of the US Supreme Command in South Korea, who accompanied them, also felt that they were scornful: What they did now was indeed a bit ruthless, and if the wreckage of the military radar could be found at the scene, it would be better to say that the United States would have sufficient excuses and reasons to deny it at that time, but if it could not be found......

Just after looking at this place just now, this staff member of the US High Command in South Korea who accompanied Kim Seung-hwan to verify the situation, this guy is of course rich in experience, but now just looking at this place, his heart chuckles: This place is just a simple civilian facility, and it does not seem at all that there is a possibility of the emergence of military weapon systems

Now, it's fun.

————————————————————————

The news that the U.S. military stationed in South Korea accidentally bombed the city hall of Osan City, Gyeonggi Province, South Korea, and many buildings near the city hall of Osan City, causing a total of 386 deaths, 1,055 injuries, and direct property damage of more than $4 billion

Everyone was stunned by the arrogant and inhumane practice of the Americans in openly dropping bombs in downtown areas, and although the US side has explained countless times that it was because it had encountered threats, no one believed the Americans' statements, based on the arrogant practices of the Americans over the years.

Asia, Arab World, Europe...... All over the world, large-scale demonstrations have erupted in places where there are bases for US affairs to protest against the actions of the Americans and show solidarity with South Korea.

Of course, it was South Korea, the victim, who reacted the most.

In South Korea, more than 10 percent of South Koreans stopped all their work and took to the streets to protest against the inhumane behavior of the American GIs, calling on all Koreans to stand up together, drive the American GIs out of South Korean soil, and return South Korea to a clean Korea.

Among them, even many popular South Korean artists, South Korean politicians or former politicians have stood up and severely condemned the actions of American GIs, but compared with those ordinary people who are agitated, these people are much calmer, and most of them are "sternly demanding that the US government and military give South Korea a clear statement, compensate for losses, and punish the murderer"
