Chapter 195: The Battle Begins 4

The whole world is in shock, Hanoi is in shock, Manila is in shock, New Delhi is in shock, Canberra is in shock, *in shock...... The world was shocked by the battle that took place on March 22, and even more so by the outcome of the battle! In just half a day, in just six hours, the mighty land power and air power in Southeast Asia suffered such heavy losses, with more than 100,000 army units wiped out, a large number of air forces, and almost all naval fleets wiped out; And the casualties of the attacking side turned out to be so low, the Air Force suffered only a little wounded, the Navy received almost no damage in the slightest, and the ground forces made a major breakthrough on two fronts! The defeat of Vietnam is already inevitable! Today's Vietnam has become a real lone army! The already loose allies are now even more divided! All the stakeholders have begun to ponder, and almost everyone has forgotten to accuse or praise China for surprise, or to say that it has been planned for a long time, but in any case, China has beaten one of the first-rate powers in Southeast Asia to the ground!

On February 22, the Prime Minister's Office in Hanoi, Vietnam, has been receiving bad news since 6:20 a.m.

"What, China has declared war on us! How is this possible, are they going to risk the crime of aggression? Premier Wu Zuoyi looked at the foreign minister with some surprise, obviously not believing that China, which has always been known for its etiquette, would declare war first.

"The Chinese accused me of firing at their border guards."

"What, this is simply a bandit act, it must have been deliberately provoked by them," after a pause, he continued, "Don't worry, the Chinese have always said nothing but do it, and they have been worn out for decades!" Order the front-line troops to prepare for the offensive! ”

"Report, urgent intelligence!" A beautiful young lady's milky voice disturbed the atmosphere, and the foreign minister frowned, but still didn't say anything!

"What, bitch, how is this possible?" Wu Zuoyi was paralyzed all of a sudden, the information sent by the secretary fell to the ground, and Li Wenjun had just picked up the confidential report that had fallen on the ground when he was interrupted.

"Prime Minister, no, the Chinese are attacking!" g Defense Minister Wu Xiangshan rushed in in a hurry, followed by the chief of security of the Prime Minister's Office, the real power did not take the foreign minister in his eyes at all, did not even say hello, just stared at the beautiful secretary a few times, and then said the news that shocked several people even more, "At 6:26, Li Zhiming City was brutally bombed by China, it is estimated that it was launched from an aircraft carrier*, and there were also carrier-based aircraft attacks; At 6:30 a.m., a large number of missiles attacked our military airfield and strategic center of gravity, and it was confirmed that they were long-range missiles launched from Chinese mainland......"

"Enough, what about the losses of the troops?" Wu Zuoyi interrupted Minister G's statement that what he wanted to know was the specific losses and the further combat capability of each unit, which was related to the implementation of the next strategy.

"At 6:35, Chinese bombers carried out a saturation attack on our northern part." Wu Xiangshan finished what he had not finished before he continued, "It is estimated that the troops have suffered heavy losses, and the Chinese missile attack is extremely fierce, and the specific number has not yet been counted!" ”

"Report, power system outage." Another young girl from the Prime Minister's Office interrupted the Minister of Defence's briefing, delivered an urgent report, and then turned to leave.

……

"Reported, the Northern Military District is under ground attack." At 7:15 a.m

……

"Report, loss of contact with front-line troops."

"Report, lost contact with Li Zhiming City, enemy interference is extremely intense." At 7:30 a.m

"Report, the Air Force decided to meet the Chinese invading aircraft." At 7:35 a.m

"Report, the Navy is under attack by China." Around 8 o'clock in the morning

"Report, Li Zhiming City contact resumed. A large number of squadrons landed in Phan Thiet and Nha Trang. ”

"Report, the Air Force suffered heavy losses and requested to withdraw from the fighting." 9:10 a.m

……

"Report, the Northern Military Defense District has collapsed."

……

"Report, the Northern Military District completely collapsed, and the city of Li Zhiming asked for reinforcements."

"Report, Vung Tau is under strong attack." 12 noon

"It is reported that Cam Ranh Bay has been attacked by the enemy's land, sea and air forces." Almost at the same time as Vung Tau was attacked

"Report, Vung Tau has fallen, and enemy forces have begun to land." 13:30 p.m

"Report, Cam Ranh Bay fell, and enemy forces began to land on a large scale." Around 3 p.m

"It is reported that Buon Ma Thuot is besieged, and land transportation in Li Zhiming City has been cut off." 23:40 p.m

……

"According to the report, the statistics of the battle situation show that the air force has lost its combat strength, with a loss of 80 percent, the navy has lost its combat strength, with a loss of 75 percent, the army has suffered serious losses, the northern military defense area has all collapsed, the losses are unknown, Li Zhiming City has suffered great losses, and the battle continues." It was still the milky female secretary, who lifted the hearts of several people and closed her bright red mouth, but she couldn't arouse anyone's sexual interest, and added, "The enemy's losses are unknown, and the prisoners have not been captured yet." ”

All of us present here are all Vietnam's political elites, and they fully understand the situation, the northern military defense area has collapsed, and the loss of Li Chi Minh City is imminent; within one day, Vietnam has already lost one-third of its army and almost all of its air force and navy, and the advanced fighters imported from Russia and the United States are useless, and they are destroyed at the airfield before they can take off, and they cannot even shoot down a single enemy plane that takes off to meet them; The navy suffered heavy losses, all the large warships were lost, and the rest of the turtles were cowered in the harbor and lost the right to dominate the sea! In particular, the army, which had high hopes for it, turned out to be vulnerable, the missile positions had long been destroyed, and the powerful army of the northern defense region of more than 100,000 people collapsed in less than five hours, and what was worse was the loss of the city of Li Chi Minh, which made Vietnam completely surrounded by China. In the north, the Chinese army and air force are pressuring the border, in the east and south, China's navy, land and air forces are jointly blockaded, and in the west, it was originally planned to take advantage of the fact that the squadron has not yet been assembled, first to solve the Chinese ally, and open up the road contact with Thailand, but I can't think that I can't move before I start, and at this time it is unrealistic to imagine that the Thais will send troops to break the siege! Is Vietnam really at the end of its rope? The ministers present in the Prime Minister's Office looked at each other, and no one dared to express their opinions, and the entire Prime Minister's Office was lifeless!

"How is this possible, how is this possible......" In the entire Prime Minister's Office, only Wu Zuoyi was angrily questioning, there was no object, and no one answered him!

None of you here thought that the battle situation would deteriorate to such an extent, and no one expected that it would lose so quickly and completely! None of the people here thought that China would send troops so quickly and so ruthlessly, and that Vietnam would not have the slightest strength to fight back. Many people know that China's Type A Army, especially the most elite Type A Army, has not formed combat effectiveness in the south at all, and everyone is convinced of this, and these troops will be transferred to the south from the 20th, and it will take a week at the earliest to form combat effectiveness; At the same time, the Chinese army in the south and southwest of the troops are not many, especially not strong, most of them are the B army, and the recognized A army downstream combat force, according to reliable intelligence, the first squadron in the two countries in the junction zone is only about 150,000 people, did not form an advantage, on the contrary, it has to defend the vast border area. Everyone is convinced that the combat effectiveness of their army is not weaker than that of the enemy, but why is China's Type B army so powerful, more than 100,000 people, and it will be gone in less than half a day, this is simply impossible! What is even more unlikely is how the Chinese aircraft carrier, which should still be off the coast of the Philippines, came to its side, did the Americans play Vietnam? Could it be that they have some conspiracy?

No matter what the reason, by 15 o'clock in the afternoon of the 22nd, the squadron had completely isolated the land powers in Southeast Asia and completed the encirclement from three aspects, which not only seriously weakened its land combat capability, but also basically destroyed its air force and naval combat power! The whole world was shocked.

6:20 a.m. on the 22nd, Manila.

"What, China declared war on Vietnam! Okay, great, Vietnam is finally going to make a move, what about the Thais? Inform the Navy and Air Force, drag the Chinese fleet! "As soon as he heard the news, Manila President Eku was relieved and made an absolutely wise decision. Vietnam is an important link in the five-nation alliance, and the most important thing is the strong combat power of its army units, but before the intelligence officer can report on the containment of the Chinese fleet, the secretary sent another report.

"According to the report, China launched a three-dimensional attack on Vietnam, land, sea and air, and Vietnam's losses are unknown." The secretary reported that "according to the analysis of US satellites, a large number of Chinese long-range missiles flew towards Vietnam. ”

"Report, according to US analysis, the Chinese aircraft carrier opposite me has disappeared." Another intelligence officer reported.

"What, inform Vietnam, watch out for Chinese aircraft carriers!" Eku reacted immediately.

"I'm sorry, Mr. President, our communications with Vietnam have been interrupted and China has strongly interfered." The intelligence officer said regretfully.

Manila has been spent in anxiety, from 7 a.m. to 8 a.m., to 9 a.m., all the way to 12 noon, all praying for allies across the sea.

"Report, intelligence has been analyzed, according to the American analysis ......," the intelligence officer reported.

"It's over, Vietnam is over! Where are the Americans, and where has the American fleet been? Eku did not have time to lament Vietnam, he immediately thought of the situation of the Philippines, Vietnam's defeat was a foregone conclusion, and the next target of the Chinese with the power of victory was undoubtedly the Philippines.

"According to the U.S. notification, the U.S. fleet is now 1,200 nautical miles from us, Mr. President." The intelligence officer replied.

"1,200 nautical miles, at least one day more than a day to go, is it too late?" Eku muttered to himself, and with a wave of his hand, the intelligence officer retreated in good interest.

The same thing happened elsewhere, at 6:20 a.m. on the 22nd, in New Delhi.

"The Chinese finally can't help it! Closely monitor the movements of the squadron. "Indian Prime Minister Jay Gandhi silently looked to the east, that huge opponent finally shot, in their opinion, this is China's deliberate, a border fire incident, should not be the trigger point of a large-scale war at all, if China has enough sincerity, it can completely avoid war, with Vietnam's strength, from India's point of view, although it is good, but it is not an opponent at all, China's powerful navy and air force are enough to plow Vietnam, and at this time, all of Vietnam's allies can not play a role, The Philippines is unable to protect itself, and India, Malaysia and Thailand have no time to intervene...... Vietnam has one of the biggest shortcomings, that is, she has a direct border with China, which allows China's powerful army forces to easily tear through his border defenses, and he is already seriously isolated, the west is China's ally Laos, the south is the world of the Chinese navy, and the east is the hinterland of the Chinese navy.

"What, Vietnam lost its combat power! How is this possible! "Judging from the data that has been continuously analyzed, Vietnam has been crushed, in just half a day, more than 100,000 elite army has been annihilated, the air force and navy have withdrawn from the battle, and even Li Zhiming City is about to be lost, how is this possible, how can it be so fast, even if the Chinese "openly repair the plank road and secretly cross Chencang", Vietnam cannot collapse so quickly! What's wrong with her army, isn't her army known as the strongest in Southeast Asia, and hundreds of thousands of northern troops will be crushed in an instant, is the Chinese army really so strong? Isn't it the B Army, but the elite A Army? But didn't the intelligence say that China's A Corps had not yet been assembled, what was going on?

Not only the Indians were surprised, but the Americans were even more surprised, the strong combat power of the squadron had long been assessed, but they still did not expect it to be so powerful, even the United States did not dare to expect to be able to defeat this powerful Southeast Asian country in half a day; Maybe Vietnam's navy and air force are not worth a blow, but how could the army have been so badly defeated? The Pentagon is worried and undecided. In the eyes of the United States, there are two countries in Southeast Asia that are very important, one is the Philippines, which is a very important forward base for the United States in the Far East. And the other country is Vietnam, although the terrain of Vietnam is narrow, but she goes deep into the hinterland of the Indochina Peninsula, once she has her, then the entire southern China is within the range of attack, and more importantly, the powerful Chinese fleet in the South China Sea will be in a state of attack on three sides, which can contain a considerable part of China's naval and air forces! According to the previous layout, Vietnam will contain the southward corps of the Chinese Army so that it cannot move to the south, and with the great help of Thailand, the entire southern China will be directly exposed to the ground front of the coalition forces! However, the rapid defeat of Vietnam made the whole situation change rapidly, the Chinese fleet gained the entire depth in the South China Sea, and the army troops pressed directly against Thailand, no one dared to imagine that Cambodia and Burma, which are very dependent on China, would maintain strict neutrality, and the development of the situation was obviously beneficial to the Chinese!

Some neutral countries in East Asia, some neutral countries in Europe, were shocked by this result, and Russia was equally shocked, and she knew better than anyone else in the world how strong Vietnam's military strength was, because a considerable part of the army equipment and air force equipment were provided by Russia, and many of them were the most advanced products that the Russians used for export. The vast majority of Vietnam's air force fighters are provided by Russia, which is recognized by the Russian ** community as an advanced military aircraft in the 21st century, but such advanced fighters cannot withstand a blow from the Chinese, except for the advanced navigation advantages of the Chinese, is the Chinese fighter really so good? The Japanese were also taken aback, good guy, but it is really not to be underestimated, if she is stronger, then it will be more difficult to deal with, no, you have to wait for an opportunity to weaken China's advantage! Even the Chinese themselves did not dare to imagine that they could achieve such a record, and such a huge achievement surprised those battle planners! They know better than anyone how many points the squadron has scored in this contest, and this score is so high that it is far beyond people's imagination...... A new operational plan has been proposed!

The first battle between China and Vietnam can be said to be a portrayal of Vietnam's complete defeat, and the squadron won a very huge record at a very small price. With the cooperation of several aviation divisions, the army that attacked head-on on the northern front, the two armies of the Southwest Military Region on the western front, and the two armies of the Guangzhou Military Region on the eastern front, launched a fierce attack on the North Vietnamese Military Region...... A large number of panicked Vietnamese troops were forced to surrender, so that they did not dare to imagine that this was the army known as the first route army in Southeast Asia! In half a day, the advance was about 50 kilometers, an average of 10 kilometers per hour, and the forward troops even advanced to more than 80 kilometers. Originally, the goal of the Chinese campaign was to seize the city of Li Chi Minh, cut off the connection between Vietnam and other countries, and force Vietnam to stop its intention to attack Laos, but I did not expect to make such a huge breakthrough on the northern front! Actually, it's not that the Vietnamese are too useless, it's really the problem of the campaign commander! Since the squadron is being assembled, and a large number of Class A troops have not yet been assembled, it can be said that the combat strength of the army has not yet been truly formed, and the Vietnamese did not expect that China would launch an offensive so soon, and its entire war plan is offensive, and the Northern Military Region has not regarded the squadron in front of it as an opponent at all, and the commanders are still dreaming of attacking! On the other hand, the Vietnamese Air Force suffered a devastating blow, not only could not effectively support the ground operation, but even lost the ability to resist the Chinese fighters, and during the entire northern front operation, only a few fighters took to the air to attack and harass the Chinese fighters, but they were not at all the opponents of the Chinese escort fighters with advanced early warning aircraft, and they were killed in a few blows, so that Vietnam's northern military district troops were completely exposed to the coverage of the squadron's missiles, aircraft, and artillery fire, and the tank units were under the air force's over-the-horizon operations, it didn't work at all, one after another was inexplicably destroyed, the soldiers have come to the experience, sitting in a tank or armored car is more dangerous than walking barefoot, the front-line troops collapsed everywhere, a large number of aspiring young people in Vietnam, either glorified or taken prisoner, only a few fled back to the rear! In fact, the fiercest battle in the whole battle was the city of Li Zhiming in the south, and even after 24 hours, there was no possibility of capturing the city of Li Zhiming, although the squadron did not focus on capturing the city.
