Chapter 356: The Gate of War Has Been Opened
PS: New day, ask for recommendation votes!
——————
War originated from the hunting activities for survival at the beginning of human beings, and then evolved into wars between different groups to compete for interests, and has accompanied the occurrence and development of human society to this day. War is an extremely destructive historical phenomenon and a disaster of human self-infliction. But just like natural disasters, it is one of the important ways to promote the development of human history. But war can also pay a heavy price with blood, devour lives, consume wealth, destroy homes, create suffering, leave humiliation, and destroy civilization.
Humanity is tired of war and must reject it! But as long as humanity exists, the rejection of war is only a beautiful luxury. Whether it's in history, in the present, or even in the future. War inevitably continues with the history of mankind.
War is all around us, and those who think they don't have war are just not seeing it.
War also comes very quickly, often inadvertently, and in the middle of the night's sleep, it may have come.
When the Somali twin aircraft carrier fleet set sail that night, and when the fleet left the Gulf of Aden and disappeared into the Indian Ocean, no one knew whether new members had been added to the aircraft carrier fleet, nor did they know where the aircraft carrier battle group was going. It is also not clear how many eyes are staring at this aircraft carrier battle group in the dark, people only know that the wind direction of the world has begun to change.
A large number of experts and scholars came forward. He claims that war is no longer possible and that Somalia already has the strength to compete with the United States. The United States also has to consider the gains and losses of the war, so it is impossible to start a war.
Just like the Iraq war. Just as the United States wants to clean up Saddam, there are always many people who claim to know the international situation in the media and use their opinions to talk about it. This time too, just as people began to believe the words of these experts, the situation changed substantially.
The three permanent members of the Security Council, the United States, France, and the United Kingdom, have proposed to the United Nations a decision to impose comprehensive sanctions on Somalia, demanding that the current Somali regime withdraw from the illegally occupied land and return it to the former Somali Government.
This practice has made these experts even louder. They directly refer to this practice of Europe and the United States as the international means used by the United States to resolve the Somali issue after it renounced the use of force.
However, once again, it turns out that these experts are slapped in the face.
Just a week after the departure of Somalia's twin carrier fleet, Bagua City, Somalia's largest city and the current political and cultural center of Somalia, opened at 10 a.m. A piercing air defense siren sounded.
When those who were awakened in their sleep pushed open the door, they saw tracer lights flying in the sky, and the mournful air raid sirens accompanied by the sound of dense gunfire. You can also see missiles with long tails of flame in tow.
In the distance, there were shocking explosions everywhere, and the windows of many houses were shattered. A thick smell of gunpowder began to fill the air.
The rapid sound of the radio kept telling every resident of the city that this was not a drill. But the war really broke out.
It was only at this point that the awakened people began to organize their clothes. Take your family to the nearest bomb shelter to escape the disaster.
All the night clubs were closed, the bright lights in the city were quickly lit and extinguished, and the street lamps on the streets were full of people leaving their homes, and every bomb shelter was quickly filled with people.
A large number of government workers began to take to the streets to maintain order and help those in need.
In the sky, the air defense barrage that flew like streamers did not stop, and those Somali reporters and many Somali local reporters had climbed to the roofs of their homes, recording everything in front of them with countless shocking words.
Helicopters began to fly over Bagua City, helping to rescue civilians who had traveled far away, transporting law and order personnel, and providing support to various bomb shelters.
The war was beyond the expectations of every citizen, every journalist, and even more so the experts.
There is no fluke, let alone the emergence of another situation, and the United States and the joint forces of France, Italy, and Japan want this kind of unexpected effect. The target of their attack is also very consistent, all the secrets are in the city of Bagua City, every spy will eventually disappear in Bagua City, this is a cold blade that is difficult for them to swallow, and at the beginning of the war, they must attack Bagua City first.
That's what they did, and they used so many weapons that they could destroy Bagua City several times.
The air defense barrage flying in the sky could not completely stop these dense attacks, especially outside the Bagua City, from time to time there would be violent explosions, and the violent explosions were accompanied by flames and flashes in the sky, reflecting the sky in a flashing red glow.
Another city, Bossaso, now the second largest city in Somalia, was also caught in a huge air defense warning, the same tracer flying, dense anti-aircraft artillery fire gathered in the sky, Bossaso International Airport, in the first time received a fierce blow, two missiles directly hit the terminal and the main runway.
On the ground, many military installations on the outskirts were also subjected to intensive missile strikes. Relying on the air defense network composed of multifunctional infantry fighting vehicles and anti-aircraft tracked vehicles, there are still big loopholes in interception, and there are still many fish that slip through the net in the face of those low-flying cruise missiles.
Bossaso and Bagua City, the two largest cities in Somalia, are also home to all of Somalia's industries. From midnight to early morning, throughout the night, the never-ending sound of artillery not only resounded over the two cities.
It also resounded throughout the world in an instant, with rumbling cannons and dense missiles, this was a fireworks festival that cost countless people.
When the whole world was aware of all this, the entire six Tomahawk-type cruise missile launching submarines of the United States, which were converted from Ohio-class nuclear-powered missile submarines, had already dumped all the cruise missiles they carried, and more than 800 of the 924 Tomahawk cruise missiles on the six submarines were aimed at Bagua City. And these six submarines that will leave and return to China immediately after launch, naturally they are not the only protagonists, the ground attack missiles on warships such as Ticonderoga-class missile cruisers and Burke-class destroyers have joined this strike feast.
All the places that the Americans considered suspicious were subjected to intensive missile strikes, and they would not let go of the mistakes they made. There is no priority in attack, and its main purpose is to destroy and destroy.
Unlike many previous military operations, this time the United States did not use fighters and bombers, but used all expensive missile saturation attacks, and the time for each missile rain to arrive at the same time was calculated in the closest way, and the time difference between all missiles in the wave reaching the target was within 10 seconds, in order to be able to form an instantaneous saturation strike and reduce the probability of interception by the Somali army.
In the sky, a full three spy satellites monitored the military operation.
Regardless of the effectiveness of this strike, the United States, France, Italy, and Japan have already shown the world the world of their great military strength. More than 1,000 missiles hit a city covering an area of more than 1,000 square kilometers, covering an area of 2,000 square kilometers. This kind of powerful firepower brought a vibration to the entire world realm, no less than a ten-magnitude earthquake.
The cost of more than 1,000 missiles alone is worth enough to regress the economies of many African countries to primitive societies.
Of course, the whole world was even more surprised by the resoluteness of the Americans, who did not pass the United Nations and did not declare war, but used an extremely humiliating, but very practical means of sneak attack in war, and it was the United States itself that took the key to open the door to war.
At this time, the so-called protests and sanctions are useless, and the so-called economic considerations are also forgotten.
In the early hours of midnight in Somalia, it was around 5 a.m. Beijing time in China. It is the land of China in summer, and the sky has begun to light up at five o'clock.
The No. 1 chief, who is accustomed to getting up early, picked up the phone call from Zeng Zhihua, who was far away in Somalia, before he washed up, and when he hung up the phone, the original temperament that seemed to be in control of everything in his hands faded in an instant. The sudden war methods of the United States made him a little unpredictable. He had guessed the war, but he had not guessed that it would come so quickly, even though it was not his war.
After getting dressed, call your secretary and ask him to immediately notify the convening of an emergency state meeting. Then he came to the top floor of the villa and knocked on Lin Meiqi's door.
Lin Meiqi, who had been sleepless all night, opened the door, and before she could ask what was going on, the No. 1 leader said bluntly: "The war has broken out, from today onwards, don't go anywhere, this place is the safest for you." Li Lan sent two bodyguards to protect you, and I agreed to his request. I'm going to a meeting soon, so don't worry too much. ”
Looking at the No. 1 leader who left in a hurry, Lin Meiqi's face was immediately replaced by a thick look of worry, and her panicked steps made her almost fall, and she couldn't care about these anymore, she hurriedly turned on the computer, she wanted to know what happened to Bagua City for the first time.
Waiting is the most painful, especially when the heart is tormented.
While turning on the computer and waiting, he gently picked up the small red box next to the computer and slowly covered it on his chest, with regret on his face, more worry.
I regret that I didn't stay with him at this time, and I could only worry about his safety from afar.
"I hope you can keep your promise, and I will always wait...... If you're gone, I'll be with you too! (To be continued......)
