Chapter 281 Occupation of Angola 2
Just after Portugal's last hopes were dashed, the Portuguese Prime Minister sent a telegram to the Governor of Angola, Maxi with an order to put up desperate resistance no matter what, and strive for the greatest victory with the least casualties. Huoran? Wen???? ???.? r?a?n ?e?n?a`c?o?m
After reading the telegram, Maxi huffed and threw it on the ground. He cursed: "It's easy for you to fight for the greatest victory with the least casualties." What am I going to do to fight that behemoth, the total strength of the men is more than a million, and the Angolan army is only 150,000 men, including the servant army. The weapons and equipment are even more backward to the other side. You can say whatever you want in the capital, far away from Africa, a land of right and wrong. ”
Although Maxi complained, the first complaint did not play a substantive role in the incident, and for now it is better to think about how to complete the damn task assigned to him by the prime minister.
Later, after calling his top military commander to his office, Maxi specifically stated that he had received the order from the prime minister. Then the entire Angolan army began to assemble on the border, and for a time the whole time began to put on a joke attitude towards Portugal.
In the past few days, the armies of both sides have been gathering there, and the patrols of the two sides have met from time to time, and once they do, they have been engaged in fierce skirmishes. But Portugal as a whole is on the bottom.
"Today, our border patrol unit at the border between our country and Angola with a small number of Portuguese militants who infiltrated our territory, after dozens of minutes of fierce fighting, our army killed 31 militants, killed 5 of our soldiers, wounded 7 others, and captured a weapon. As we are at war with the Portuguese government, we hope that the general public will be vigilant and not go to sparsely populated areas, and that if you find any unknown elements, please report them to the local armed forces immediately. ”
On the Central Radio of the African People's Republic, a male announcer in a black suit is reporting to the nation.
Although it has been less than five years since the founding of the African People's Republic, with the help of the Red Alert system, its industrial scale has surpassed that of many European countries, so the radio has been popularized to thousands of households in Africa. These radios are one of the small mind control devices that the Red Police have taken out to control the minds of the people, and they can also be regarded as the benefits brought by the Red Police Base. With the comprehensive construction of various signal towers, except for some remote mountain villages, other rural towns can easily receive signals. With the help of spy satellites, remote mountain villages will soon be able to listen to the radio.
As for those families who cannot afford to buy a radio, local government departments will also use interest-free loans and government subsidies to allow these residents to own a radio. As long as these residents participate in the public welfare construction work of some government departments.
Li Puyu originally planned to try to make the whole country universal television in three to five years, and this plan was the policy that Li Puyu decided when he formulated the first five-year plan, and now Africa has the capacity to start producing black and white television sets, and color television sets are also being developed. So this TV is not a new thing in Africa, and with the advent of color TV, Li Puyu absolutely believes that these black and white TVs will be cheaper. According to the current average national income, it only takes three months' salary to buy a black-and-white television set, and only one year's salary to buy a color television set.
Although the TV has not yet been popularized among the people, it is an extremely simple basic operation calculator that has begun to be used in the government and the financial sector, otherwise those huge information files would have to exhaust the staff to death.
It is now seven o'clock in the evening, and the residents of every household have stopped their day's work and returned to their homes to rest or have dinner, turn on the radio and listen to the daily news.
In peacetime, these news are generally broadcast three times a day, three times in the morning, noon and evening, each time for half an hour, followed by storytelling, music, and drama programs, but since yesterday when I heard the news of the war with Portugal, these programs have all made way for news programs, and the daily news is not continuous, and basically it is used to broadcast news about the development of the war.
In the past few months, the news I have listened to every day is the news of the Asian battlefield in the Far East, such as the Battle of Songhu and the Battle of Xuzhou, so these people still have a relatively good understanding of the basic information of this world.
But since yesterday, the news program has not been broadcasting any news, but has launched a verbal and written attack on Portugal, these residents know that the country is going to declare war on those damn white pigs again, and they are still more indignant to hear that the Portuguese actually killed African residents one by one.
However, in today's news broadcast, there was no mention of the war situation in the Far Eastern Theater, and some troop deployments were not mentioned. The reports that were broadcast were all frowning news.
Today, as usual, all the people who ate around the radio after work and the family found out that today the news began. And there is no talk of the war that is taking place. There is also no mention of wars in some other areas. There were also no war situations against Germany and the Far East. Yesterday's tense situation was also broadcast.
At the beginning, he talked about the border area of Africa, and once again warned the residents living on the border. Be careful about topics like danger that you are always aware of.
However, this was just an appetizer, and the next news report suddenly set off a storm of public opinion in the land ruled by Li Puyu.
"According to the latest report sent back by frontline reporters, at about 9 o'clock this morning, a logistics condolence team of the African People's Liberation Army (PLA) was attacked by a group of militants in the jungle area of Matadi in Congo. The militants were well-trained and armed with a large number of automatic firearms, most of which were American Thomson submachine guns as well as Finnish Suomi submachine guns. The main thing is that this condolence group carried a regiment of supplies. The main thing is that the purpose of this attack was to disrupt the supply routes of our army. Hit the morale of our troops. ”
However, under the tight defense of dozens of armed soldiers on the scene, and the reinforcements around the scene quickly arrived on the battlefield, this attack was finally crushed. All the militants were killed, and more than 180 people were attacked. Thirty-one of our men were killed.
