Chapter 870: Navy debut
The last echelon of the Air Force flew out of the square, and all the large outdoor displays that had been erected around the square appeared at the same time, and at the same time, a low-altitude aerial shot of the turquoise sea appeared, and the picture was from far and near, and a huge fleet entered everyone's field of vision.
Somali Federal Television also switched to this screen for the first time, but in an instant, nearly half of the audience couldn't help but open their mouths.
Because the fleet that appears on the screen is so large, it is surprisingly large.
Regardless of the dense ships under the bird's-eye view of the picture, the twelve behemoths in the fleet are enough to make countless people's heads hot.
In front of the fleet, four supercarriers with a full load displacement of nearly 110,000 tons formed a diamond-shaped array, becoming the most dazzling storage of the entire fleet. Behind the aircraft carrier, there are eight amphibious assault ships and eight amphibious giant dock landing ships, although they look much smaller than the aircraft carrier from high altitude, but the visual effect is not much worse.
And behind these 20 capital warships, there are 16 fast combat support ships, and behind them are 18 useless ships with a displacement of 18,000 tons, sailing side by side around the amphibious assault ships, and their momentum is not weak in the slightest.
Following dreadnoughts, amphibious assault ships, and aircraft carriers are Aegis ships, numbering a huge thirty-six ships. There are multi-purpose destroyers in the future, and there are even more of them, and at the end there are scorpions, which are about the same number as multi-purpose destroyers.
At the forefront of the entire fleet are attack nuclear submarines that pull out of a long waterway, and this is the first time that the Somali Navy has revealed eight attack nuclear submarines on a single screen.
More than 100 warships filled the entire screen in this way, and under high-altitude aerial photography, the entire fleet was barely photographed. Eight attack nuclear submarines are at the head of the line, leading more than a hundred warships. With a total displacement of more than a million tons, this huge sea power. The United States is the only country in the world that can compare with it.
The total displacement of four aircraft carriers alone is enough for the Somali Navy to squeeze into the top seven in the world, and if you add eight amphibious assault ships, the total displacement can rank fourth in the world. Although the total displacement of the Somali Navy is not yet known accurately, the Somali Navy is already considered the second largest navy in the world.
Those who were still a little skeptical of this statement closed their mouths after seeing such a huge naval lineup in front of them, because anyone with a discerning eye knew that the fleet in front of them was not the full size of the Somali Navy.
According to some one-sided information that has been announced. Ordinary people who have a love of military affairs know that the Somali Navy now has six aircraft carrier battle groups and six amphibious battle groups, and there is naturally no need to introduce more aircraft carrier battle groups, and more than half of the warships in the fleet in front of them are the ships of four of them.
The remaining ships are naturally the warships that form the amphibious combat group, and the Somali Navy announced the basic configuration of the Somali Navy's amphibious combat group very early, consisting of two amphibious assault ships, two dock landing ships, two fast combat support ships, two Aegis ships, two multi-purpose destroyers, and other ships. When the war requires, it will continue to be expanded to include ships such as submarines, command ships, and transport ships.
The first reaction of those familiar with this is that the dense fleet that occupies the entire screen on the screen is only two-thirds of the strength of the Somali Navy. The other third of the Somali Navy, seemingly to disgust NATO, has been cruising the Atlantic until now. He also often enters the Mediterranean Sea to show off his might.
Now it's time for this incomparably large fleet to appear in the eyes of the nations of the world. The goal was achieved in an instant. Because this fleet is enough to defeat 99% of the countries in the world. Even in Europe, it will be enough to plunge most of Europe into a sea of fire.
Moreover, the aircraft carrier fleet combined with nuclear deterrence is the real terrifying place, and no one will doubt the nuclear projection capability of an aircraft carrier battle group, and the standing nuclear weapons on the aircraft carrier battle group are something that the five permanent members of the Security Council will do.
Somalia, which has the world's second-largest navy, is the sixth nuclear-armed country, and no one would believe that there are no nuclear weapons on board the aircraft carrier.
As soon as such a huge naval fleet group comes out, even the United States cannot calm down, let alone other countries, and anyone who wants to destroy such a fleet will have to break their bones.
Of course, some people are worried and moved, and naturally some people rejoice, and all parts of the Somali Federation have erupted in various cheers at the same time, although for many people, the time to join Somalia is only a few years, but everyone has already regarded themselves as a part of Somalia, and they are extremely glad that their country and government chose at the beginning, and the strength of Somalia is naturally what they are most proud of.
At this time, under the countless cheers, everyone heard the roar from the picture, in the distance of the camera, the carrier-based aircraft group flew quickly, in just half a minute, batches of aircraft flew from the fleet at an ultra-low altitude, and the aerial footage recorded this precious picture.
On the viewing platform in the central square of Bagua City, all Li Lan's senses were not placed on the display screen, and he squinted his eyes to carefully experience the cheers of the entire square crowd.
However, from the beginning to the end, he has not been complacent for a day, because the one he has now is still some distance from his ultimate goal, the world is still very big, and he is not the only one.
In his eyes, there were dense small words on the heads of countless people in the entire square, which was a separate popular sentiment index, and every citizen with Somali nationality could see everyone's popular sentiment as long as he wanted to, which was another ability given to him by the base after the popular sentiment index exceeded 95 percent.
In the past, he could see the situation of every soldier at the base, but now he could see the attitude of every citizen towards him. Of the hundreds of thousands of people in front of us, the popular sentiment index of each and every one of them has almost reached 100 percent.
There were only the people on the guest viewing platform, and it was still blank, because these people were not Somali citizens, and he could not see the joys, sorrows, and sorrows of these people towards him, and naturally there was no popular will at all.
And the red dots in front of him can still be seen very clearly, and it is clear that among these guests, there are still some people who are hostile to him or Somalia. However, Li Lan did not pay attention to these invited guests, because there are many enemies in Somalia, and these people are just a drop in the ocean. Of course, the main thing is that these people are all invited here to watch the military parade, from all over the world, and many of them are official representatives of NATO countries, and it is obviously impossible to hope that these people are not hostile to Somalia.
From these people, Li Lan still saw some different places, and some things made him quite interested.
"The people around the fifth position in the first row of the No. 3 guest stage below, where do they come from, and what are their identities." Li Lan asked Natasha beside her in a low voice.
Natasha looked at it, and then said: "They are the staff of the German office, these people seem to be the military attachés of the German office, and the leader of the team is a German naval lieutenant commander." ”
"The diplomatic level of the office would actually send a lieutenant colonel?" Li Lan did not doubt that Natasha would be mistaken, this was the trust he had had with for more than ten years, but he was a little curious about the identities of the Germans below.
"That's right, it's a lieutenant colonel, and the intelligence department has his details." Natasha made sure.
"Find out what he does." After Li Lan gave a command, she didn't continue to speak, and Natasha, who was beside her, nodded to indicate that she knew, and didn't continue to speak.
At this time, Mohammadi began to announce the end of the parade and the celebratory processions held in the capital area and all parts of the federation began.
At the beginning of the celebratory procession attended by hundreds of thousands of people, Li Lan did not leave the viewing platform, but continued to stand there, watching the lively procession and celebration below.
The more than one-hour parade and celebration is coming to an end, and the end of this grand National Day is getting closer and closer.
"How many foreign affairs are scheduled for tomorrow?" After more than an hour, Li Lan asked Natasha again.
"After the National Day event, the President of Nigeria wants to see you." Natasha said.
"Then arrange a meeting." Li Lan nodded and said.
"But aren't you planning to meet with the representatives of the tribes?" Natasha asked, confused.
"The scheduled meeting with the tribes was postponed by an hour, and I met with the Nigerian president first." Speaking of this, Li Lan pondered for a moment and then asked, "Is there any Syria-related activity of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs recently?" ”
Natasha nodded, clicked on the mobile phone on her wrist, flipped through it for a while, and said: "The day after tomorrow, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will discuss with the Syrian ambassador about this year's food aid and the issue of Syrian students coming to Somalia." ”
"You can arrange now, inform the Syrian ambassador to suspend this activity, and next week I will pay an official state visit to Syria, and I will meet with Bashar al-Assad in person." Li Lan said.
"Is this news made public beforehand?" Natasha asked.
After thinking about it for a moment, Li Lan spoke: "The news of the visit can be made public, but there is no need to disclose the specific itinerary to the public. ”
"I see, does Madame follow?" Natasha asked again.
"The Middle East is not stable, just the two of us can go, and then we can arrange normal security forces." Li Lan shook his head, changed his words and continued: "However, prepare some more necessary field equipment, this trip may not be stable." ”
"Then why not increase the security force?" Hearing this, Natasha wondered.
Li Lan shook his head and said, "This is just a little hunch of mine, there is no need to make such a big move." (To be continued......)
