――――The following text――――

In the Supreme Command Headquarters of Bagua City, Li Lan was sitting in the big seat of the Supreme Commander at the moment, and Ling Liang was standing quietly beside him, surrounded by more than a dozen senior staff officers.

"NATO's failed attack on our weather controller, what do you think they will do next?" Li Lan asked after browsing the real-time battle situation information.

Ling Liang immediately took a step forward and analyzed: "The core purpose of the NATO coalition forces to destroy our weather controller is only one, and that is to prepare for the next full-scale attack. ”

Speaking of this, Ling Liang opened the projection map, pointed to the two hot spots where the war had broken out - Syria and Egypt - on it, and continued: "At present, this kind of offensive is not even a warm-up for both of us, and the war has been going on for nearly twenty hours, and there is no big action at present, except for the limited investment of the air force.

This has a lot to do with the lack of time for war preparation on both sides, the corps are not in place, once a large-scale campaign is blindly launched, the lack of follow-up sustainability, the supply will become very difficult, so we will maintain the current only two battlefields of small-scale battles, this is not only for the follow-up all-out operation to test the strength of the opponent, as the basic assessment of the all-out war, but also for the follow-up full-scale engagement to buy time.

Especially for the Air Force, if NATO wants to gain the initiative in the war, it needs to gain air superiority, for now. NATO's air force only made a small move, once it was finally launched. NATO will immediately press a large amount of air power to the front line. According to the available information, a large number of temporary airports are already being built in Italy. It is expected to meet the needs of more than a thousand fighters. Once all these airfields have been built, a large-scale attack is not far away.

According to additional information, two arsenal ships of the US Navy have arrived in the Mediterranean, and these two arsenal ships are warships that the US Navy has secretly built to revive the construction plan of the arsenal ships of the past, and the purpose is only one thing, that is, to have super-saturated attack firepower that can destroy our defense system in an instant. According to intelligence analysis, both of these arsenal ships have a displacement of about 40,000 tons, and each arsenal ship can carry 700 vertically launched Tomahawk-2 supersonic cruise missiles, and has an advanced fire control system and fire coordination mechanism. It is able to launch all the missiles in just 15 minutes, and coordinate in the air, while flying to the target at an ultra-low altitude.

The instantaneous firepower of these two arsenal ships, the firepower of the instantaneous burst and the degree of saturation strikes, have already surpassed the two aircraft carrier battle groups, enough to destroy any city in the blink of an eye. And these two arsenal ships, which are about to arrive in the Mediterranean, have only one goal. All for the follow-up general offensive plan.

It is precisely because of these two arsenal ships that the NATO coalition forces have not deployed aircraft carrier battle groups in the Mediterranean, but Europe's land-based fighters are enough to completely control the Mediterranean. Coupled with the huge amphibious combat group of the Mediterranean Fleet, NATO's accumulated strength has rapidly expanded. It is expected that the time for launching a general offensive will not be too far off. ”

Ling Liang used the word expansion to fully illustrate the efficiency of NATO's troop buildup. At the moment in the Mediterranean, almost half of the amphibious combat forces concentrated on the NATO side. In addition to the French amphibious assault ships and the United States, a large number of amphibious dock landing ships and tank armored landing ships from various European countries have also gathered, and the main force of amphibious operations alone has exceeded 200,000.

A large number of marines and army armored units are also leaving the port in a steady stream of ships, and NATO's first wave of attack forces is rapidly saturated.

As for why the small sea area of the Mediterranean Sea was chosen, it is only because of the unique geographical advantages of this region.

This advantage is now almost entirely on the side of NATO, Somalia is close to the Indian Ocean, there are no exports in the Mediterranean, and the Mediterranean Sea is not a key area for Somali warships.

On the other side of the Mediterranean, it is all European territory, with many ports, which can allow NATO soldiers to board ships quickly, and whether it is to Africa or the Middle East, this distance is not far.

It can achieve rapid troop support and material replenishment, and the importance of the Mediterranean to NATO is naturally irreplaceable.

NATO's use of the Mediterranean Sea as a springboard for attack is a sure thing, and the Mediterranean Sea is also the most important line of defense, and the closest place to Africa and Europe is separated by the Strait of Gibraltar.

The NATO coalition forces, which have taken the initiative to attack, are also preparing for defense at the same time.

Li Lan wanted to attack Europe, and there were only two routes, one was Turkey, and the other was to control the Mediterranean, and then land on the European continent.

The geographical location of the Mediterranean is much more important than that of Turkey, and the northern side is well aware of this, once the Mediterranean is controlled by Somalia, the war can almost be declared over.

Because Europe will be at risk of being invaded directly, and vice versa will be true for Turkey.

Before the war, NATO tightly strengthened its relations with Turkey, in order to be able to keep this gateway to Europe like an iron link.

NATO has done it, and the main ground forces of NATO countries are constantly gathering towards Turkey, and many temporary airfields and defensive weapons have also settled in Turkey, as if Turkey has been used as a bridgehead for war.

As far as the current posture is concerned, the NATO coalition forces, with its strong military strength, occupy the initiative position and have the best offensive advantage under the geographical advantage.

Somalia, on the other hand, if it wants to take the initiative to attack, it must first break NATO's overall control of the Mediterranean, which is extremely difficult.

The number of NATO coalition fighters in Europe has exceeded 5,000, and nearly half of them are third-generation fighters.

Unless he can firmly control northern Africa, it will take time, and once in control, he will be able to build up a lot of shore-based air defense and anti-ship firepower. Only in this way can we have the capital to compete with NATO for control of the Mediterranean.

Thinking of meeting this condition. The Red Guard Corps can only be in a hurry, and it is not in a hurry to come.

"What do you think. Is it possible that the NATO coalition forces will choose to attack from the Pacific direction? Li Lan asked again.

At present, the environment of the first major battlefield has been determined, that is, from the Middle East to the north of Africa, across the line of tens of thousands of kilometers, it is the first battlefield.

As the world's largest military bloc, although NATO is concentrated in Europe, many other military countries are also located on the Pacific coast, and many US military forces are still in the Pacific direction.

Australia, which is separated from Somalia in the Indian Ocean, has also become the second important military bridgehead country of the NATO military bloc.

Originally, the country was supposed to be India. But India has been defeated by Somalia and can no longer become NATO's war front, which is the biggest loss of the NATO coalition.

Otherwise, with Turkey to the west, India to the east, and Australia to the south, the Somali Federation will fall into the front passivity.

However, as far as the current military posture is concerned, NATO still has a great advantage, and NATO has the value of developing this part of the Indian Ocean as a second battlefield. And the value is still extremely high.

Australia, as a subject country of the United Kingdom, has always been an ally of the United States, and during the preparation for war, Australia has become a key military bridgehead built by the NATO military bloc.

Australia will serve as the second route for NATO's joint forces to attack Somalia. However, there is a very important condition for this route, that is, it must be seized by the Indian Ocean.

Only by controlling sea supremacy will it be possible for NATO to cross the Indian Ocean. Sending troops from the East to the African theater.

Don't look at the fact that the Indian Ocean is now controlled by the Somali Navy, but NATO is not without strength at all.

In the Indian Ocean. Nearly half of the islands are British and French possessions. As long as the airfield and maintenance facilities are built, it will be an unsinkable aircraft carrier.

In the process of Somalia's gradual rise, NATO has consciously begun to build these islands in the Indian Ocean, and almost every island has military bases and airports and other facilities.

Even many islands have been built with a lot of money, becoming an important forward observation or supply base for the NATO Navy.

That's why Li Lan asked this question, because NATO's troop strength is completely capable of realizing the strategy of two-front operations.

At present, although Somalia is not inferior in military strength and has strong combat effectiveness, it can naturally fall into a disadvantage in terms of geographical advantages, which requires further efforts to close the gap in the course of the war.

"Not for the time being, unless the NATO Navy forms a huge joint fleet, forces our fleet to carry out a decisive battle at sea, and ensures that it can destroy half of our main forces in maritime operations, NATO will not risk crossing the Indian Ocean and coming to Africa from the far Pacific Ocean to fight, which does not conform to the basic principles of war, and with the current level of science and technology, the routine of this kind of war has not yet been broken."

Ling Liang shook his head and continued: "If I am the commander of NATO, I will choose to open up a second battlefield in half a year, and then I will gather more than eighty percent of the navy, and then press towards us with all the main forces of the navy, force our fleet to fight a decisive battle, strive to destroy our fleet in one fell swoop, and then launch the final final battle." ”

"Then you think NATO will be us next?" Li Lan nodded and continued to ask.

"If you think about it from another perspective, I will immediately occupy Egypt and Saudi Arabia, and strike at the national strength of the Middle East countries as quickly as possible. The persimmon will pick up the soft pinch, I will remove all the wings, and then leave only one of us, and finally end this war completely with an absolute superiority in troops. Ling Liang replied very decisively.

Li Lan asked again, "Then what should we do?" ”

"Without a second plan, the whole of northern Africa and the Middle East is our battlefield, and our job now is to counterattack. No matter where NATO chooses to fight, we must be ready for a counteroffensive that will disrupt NATO's strategic deployment. Ling Liang said.

Ling Liang's thoughts coincide with Li Lan's, the current war has broken out, the flames of war are burning everywhere, blindly defending is not his style, and under the enemy's advantage, the more defensive the more passive.

So the question he thinks about is how to fight back.

The so-called counteroffensive is not sending mobile forces to the enemy's rear to carry out parachute strikes, because NATO forces can quickly wipe out any airborne forces.

It's as if sending paratroopers to paratroopers to Paris now can cause damage to Paris. But none of the parachute troops could come back.

Airborne troops must operate on the ground or within the range that the air force can support at any time. Without any logistical supplies and follow-up troops arriving, airborne is an act of seeking death.

Of course, special operations are not among them. Airborne only against large forces.

And the so-called counteroffensive is an offensive action that looks for a counter-offensive when it is reasonable to defend.

At present, the two battles are mainly concentrated in the Middle East and Egypt, and the counteroffensive that can be done at present is to drive the NATO coalition forces in Egypt out of the Mediterranean, or drive the NATO forces that have entered Syria back to Turkey, so that they can take the initiative to attack.

"Tell me about your idea of counterattacking." Li Lan asked.

"On the Egyptian side, I don't need to say more, our main forces are rapidly supporting Egypt. It can cope with most of the changes in warfare. But in the Middle East, we have less than 200,000 troops stationed in the Middle East, and there is only one army group in the Red Guard Corps in the Middle East, while in Turkey, the main force of the NATO coalition forces has exceeded 500,000, and the number will increase to 1 million in the next month. Therefore, we must speed up the mobilization of troops. ”

Speaking of which, Ling Liang quickly opened the map of the Middle East. He said: "My suggestion is to mobilize the forces of a shock army to the Middle East in the next month, and cooperate with the second shock army already stationed in the Middle East to form a Middle East theater corps. ”

Li Lan heard this. Puzzled, he asked: "One army group is enough?" ”

Ling Liang shook his head and continued: "The main force of the Red Guard of the two group armies is only about 200,000 troops. And in the next month, we cannot have less than half a million troops in the Middle East. So I propose to mobilize three more armies of the garrison corps and go to the Middle East. So. We have two Red Alert armies and four garrison armies in the Middle East that can be mobilized, and only with the more than one million troops of our allies in the Middle East can we have the strength to counterattack. ”

Speaking of this, Ling Liang's face was already very serious, and he continued: "I think that we must send troops into Saudi Arabia as soon as possible, so as not to make a move in advance on the NATO side, which will cause us to fall into passivity. ”

"I have ordered a mechanized infantry division and two armored brigades in Yemen to enter Saudi Arabia and cooperate with Saudi ground forces to encircle and suppress NATO military units in the territory." Li Lan said.

"This is not enough, and once NATO launches a second attack, Saudi troops alone will not be able to resist."

"Immediately let the prepared garrison troops set off and immediately go to Saudi Arabia, and at the same time order the air force to do a good job in the air defense work in various theaters, and at present the air force does not ask them to seize air supremacy, but it must ensure that the enemy cannot seize air supremacy."

Although modern warfare is no longer a confrontation between large corps, it is an information-based war and a war under precision strikes.

However, in the case of information symmetry, the confrontation between the two super-powerful military blocs still relies on military strength.

Especially in urban warfare, there is no way to seize control of the city by relying on a few people alone, and a large number of troops are still needed to occupy the enemy's city.

When the United States attacked Iraq, it also mobilized more than 200,000 troops, and directly mobilized more than 100,000 troops. And this is still under the condition of asymmetrical warfare.

At present, neither NATO nor Somalia have absolute military and technological superiority, because some equipment superiority cannot be decisive in a war involving all-out warfare.

Unless this advantage can rise to an asymmetrical war situation, it will be possible for one side to have a comprehensive advantage.

The enemy has no backhand, so despite being behind in many equipment, NATO still has an advantage.

First of all, NATO's military science and technology level is not bad, and the backwardness of some equipment can be quickly made up for in quantity, and it still has an advantage.

And although the weapons and equipment of the Red Guard Corps are advanced, they are not so numerous that they can have a decisive advantage.

The disadvantage in terms of military strength will also be reflected in the actual war, so it cannot be called any advantage at all.

Of course, in a local war, the Somali side still has an advantage, but after it rises to a full-scale war, this advantage is leveled.

It is precisely because NATO understands this that it does not rush to launch a large-scale attack, but accumulates offensive forces to further tilt the balance of the war in favor of the superior side.

After an hour-long exchange of views with Ling Liang and the staff officers of the Supreme Command, Li Lan returned to his office.

At this moment, Mohammadi and Farah are already here anxiously waiting for his arrival.

As the two elders of the Somali Federation, Mohammadi and Farah, have always been representative figures in the Somali Federal Government.

has followed Li Lan for almost 20 years, and in addition to politics, he can also be said to be a friend who talks about everything.

Although both of them are almost 60 years old, they are still at the peak of their politics and careers.

It's just that the two of them originally had thick black hair, which has become snowy.

After seeing Li Lan come in, the two immediately got up from the waiting sofa, and Farah was the first to speak: "Your Excellency, why hasn't the Federation entered a state of all-out war, we must immediately gather all resources to win this war." ”

Mohammadi also continued: "At present, the national resources have not yet entered the stage of full integration, which will greatly waste our original war resources. ”

Feeling the deep concern between the words of the two, Li Lan was very relieved. (To be continued, please search, the novel is better and updated faster!)
