Chapter 433: Brunei
"Brunei's withdrawal from the Federation of North Borneo."
As soon as Yang Feng returned to Yingtian, Hu Hao immediately told him a very sudden news.
"The little hand is very fast!"
Yang Feng said with a sneer.
Obviously, the people of the United States began to make a move, Brunei's location is self-evident for the Ming Empire, the straight-line distance to Yingtian is only 700 kilometers, and the distance from other core cities of the Ming Dynasty is within 900 kilometers, as long as a large number of supersonic fighters and fighter-bombers are stationed there, it is easy to cover the most core part of the territory of the Ming Dynasty within an hour.
In particular, the F104 fighter, F105 fighter-bomber, and F106 interceptor, the new generation of the main fighters of the US military, have entered service one after another.
But they want to get the right to garrison from the North Borneo Federation, but it is impossible at all, because this federation is also controlled by the Chinese, and even the capital of the North Borneo Federation that has just been determined is Kuching, a city with a majority of Chinese, and the biggest dream of those Malays in the North Borneo Federation is to join the Ming Dynasty, and it is impossible for them to fall to the United States.
Then the only way is for Brunei to withdraw from the federation.
It would be much easier for them to lease a military base from the Sultan of Brunei, after all, they would only have to deal with one feudal king, and it was clear that this time Saifudin III was betting on the Mi people.
"Man, sometimes a mistake can ruin everything, but I still don't quite understand, why is this Sultan Majesty? It is said that after so many years, everyone is getting along quite well, and he should know our strength very well. Don't you make such a low-level mistake? He's right under my nose. Of course, I also know that he is there and I am determined to do it. Does he really think that the people of the United States can protect him? β
Yang Feng asked curiously.
"It is said that the people of the United States are ready to support him in nationalizing the oil."
Hu said with a smile.
"Uh, that's a big deal!"
Yang Feng said in horror.
It is indeed a lot of money, except for Mossadegh back then, at this time, no country under the control of European and American oil companies dared to play nationalization, and the people of the United States could even offer such conditions, aren't they afraid that those princes in the Middle East will also be treated the same?
"Poor Sultan, I am afraid that there is more than one mistake made this time."
Yang Feng said with a sneer.
"In that case, there's no need to be polite. Order the fleet to be dispatched and land in Bandar Seri Begawan, and the 1st Airborne Brigade will be dispatched immediately, don't let the Mi people take the lead, it's been so many years, we should be arrogant, and by the way, tell the Beipo Federation, let them announce the Saifudin rebellion, and invite us to help quell the rebellion. β
Then he added.
Indeed, as he said. It's time for the Ming Empire to be arrogant, and everyone else has put their hands into their arms. It's a joke to play with innocence.
After receiving the order of the FΓΌhrer, the Loyalty Expeditionary Strike Group in Yingtian Military Port immediately set sail, and at the same time, the 1st Airborne Brigade stationed in Suncheon also boarded the Hercules transport plane at the fastest speed and flew directly to Bandar Seri Begagawan, and half an hour after these transport planes took off, the newly established Beipo Federal Government announced through the Ming Empire Radio that Brunei had no right to withdraw from the federation, and the behavior of Sultan Saifudin III of Brunei was a rebellion, and invited the Ming army to assist in quelling the rebellion in the name of the federal government.
But at this time......
"According to the report, the Honghu No. 2 early warning aircraft found that 24 large aircraft were flying towards Bandar Seri Begawan at an ultra-low altitude, northwest of the direction, at a distance of 200 kilometers, judging from the flight speed and radar reflection signal characteristics, it should be a C130 transport aircraft imitating Hercules in the United States."
In the command hall of the Yingtian General Staff, a female signal soldier suddenly shouted.
"Location!"
Sitting on the throne, Yang Fuhrer was holding a cat, just like Captain Barbossa holding a monkey, scanning the front with a sharp gaze, and those staff officers who were busy quickly put a model representing the US military C130 transport plane in the corresponding position on the huge sand table according to the information transmitted by the Honghu No. 2 early warning plane.
"No wonder you have the guts to be so fat, it's premeditated."
Looking at the model on the sand table, Yang Feng couldn't help but sneer and said.
Two hundred kilometers north of Bandar Seri Bega, 24 US C130 transport planes are flying south at an altitude of less than 100 meters above the sea surface, because it is later than the Kunpeng Hercules transport plane, so this transport plane has always borne the notorious reputation of piracy of the latter, and because its performance is much worse than that of Hercules, it has even been ridiculed as a clumsy imitation.
The conscience of heaven and earth, the boss of Lockheed can swear by the Bible, they are definitely not the Hercules who imitated the Kunpeng company, as for why the two transport planes are exactly the same......
Even the nickname is the same.
They really don't know.
Because of this, this transport aircraft has hardly received any orders from other countries except for the US military, after all, it is impossible for people to buy a joke back, and even Canada, which is adjacent to the United States, has purchased Kunpeng Hercules. There is an obvious gap in the performance of the two aircraft, especially the extended range of the Kunpeng version, which even has intercontinental transportation capacity, can fly 7,000 kilometers with nine tons of materials, and the maximum load also reaches 20 tons, far exceeding the 15 tons of the Lockheed version.
Well, that's actually the difference between Hercules A and Hercules E.
Today, the task of these transport planes taking off from Annam is very simple, to airlift a US military contingent into Brunei, in order to control the country before the Ming army, in order to avoid the Ming army's radar surveillance, they descended to an altitude and flew at an ultra-low altitude shortly after leaving Annam. Although the wind and waves on the sea surface are relatively strong today, and the chaotic clutter has made them avoid the monitoring of the Ming army's strategic early warning radar in East Borneo, which is actually a super-horizon radar, but they have not escaped the eyes of the Ming army's latest large early warning aircraft watchtower patrolling this sea area.
"Colonel, we're in trouble."
On one of the C130 transport planes, the captain suddenly walked to the rear cabin and said nervously to the commander of the operation, Colonel Smith, who came from the 173rd Airborne Brigade stationed in Taiwan, in fact, there were not many ground troops in Annam at this time, and the South Vietnamese Army was mainly responsible for the fight with the Viet Minh guerrillas, and the US Army only had the Marine Corps at the Cam Ranh Bay base and the advisers scattered in the South Vietnamese Army, which was specially transferred for this operation.
Colonel Smith looked at him quizzically.
"The radar station of the Australians reported that the carrier-based aircraft of the Ming army were about to arrive."
The captain said with a solemn face.
North Borneo has been stationed by the Australian army before, including Brunei, Australia has an air base and a large radar station there, although the Britons have officially retreated, but it is impossible for the garrisons to complete the retreat in a short time, and the US military this operation, in fact, secretly cooperated with the Australians, it is obvious that the kangaroos also feel the threat of the Ming Dynasty, the two sides have been entangled in the problem of the increasing number of Chinese in Western Australia over the years, although they dare not confront Yang Feng head-on, But you won't miss the opportunity to stumble.
"Continue as planned."
Colonel Smith said with a sneer.
But at this moment, the pilot's exclamation came from the front: "Tiger Shark!" β
In the distant sky, twelve Tiger Shark fighters took off from the aircraft carrier Yingtian, which was cruising the South China Sea, and emerged from the clouds.
Colonel Smith, who hurried to the cockpit, frowned at these tiger sharks that quickly closed the distance, and the bright livery of light gull gray and white made these elegant fighters look very eye-catching, especially the famous air-to-air missiles under the wings were even more murderous.
Soon a warning voice was heard in the plane's contact channel: "We are the Daming Naval Aviation, and we are invited by the Federal Government of North Borneo to provide them with protection, please indicate your identity and destination." β
"Tell them that we are the U.S. Airborne Forces, on flight training missions."
Colonel Smith said.
The pilot immediately relayed.
"You are about to enter the airspace of the Federation of North Borneo, turn and fly away immediately, or we will be expelled according to the powers conferred by the Federation of North Borneo."
Then he got an answer.
"Tell them it's the high seas and we have the right to fly freely."
Colonel Smith said.
"On behalf of the Federal Government of North Borneo, we warn once again that any aircraft of another country that enters the airspace of North Borneo without permission will be shot down as an invasion."
Then he was warned.
"How far is it from North Borneo airspace?"
Colonel Smith asked.
"Fifty kilometers to go."
The captain looked at the navigator and said as he checked the map.
"Continue to fly forward, reduce the speed to the slowest possible, and hopefully our carrier-based aircraft will be able to arrive as soon as possible."
Colonel Smith said.
"Slowed down? This is waiting for helpers! β
On a Tiger Shark fighter not far away, Feng Shuo, the squadron leader of the First Fighter Squadron of the Second Carrier-based Aircraft Group of the Ming Naval Aviation, said with great interest, at this moment, on a display screen in front of him, a moving point of light suddenly appeared, numerous and fast, at a distance of one hundred and twenty kilometers, but this was not discovered by his airborne radar, his airborne radar search distance was only seventy kilometers, and these planes were outside his detection sector.
This is transmitted by the Honghu early warning aircraft in the distance through a data link.
The shipborne version of the Tiger Shark used by the Ming army is a full set of top-level configurations, not only has an omnidirectional attack Thunderbolt-1 air-to-air missile, but also is equipped with the latest development of the tactical data link system, of course, it is only a one-way transmission, transmitted by the early warning aircraft to all receivers within the coverage area, and the sea surface warship can also act as an early warning aircraft without an early warning aircraft.
At this time, it was the US carrier-based aircraft that took off from the aircraft carrier Midway that was detected by the Honghu early warning plane.
F8 Crusaders, or with their current designation F8U. (To be continued.) )
