Volume 12 Prelude to the Great War Chapter 59 Special Operations
When the concubine called the special commissioner of the Military Intelligence Bureau, Pei Chengyi asked Dongfang to smell the meeting. [No pop-up novel network]
The MIA sent someone else, it was Zhang Xiaolong, who had worked with Pei Chengyi during the Falklands War. Although Pei Chengyi is not the kind of person who likes gossip, it can be seen from this arrangement that Li Cunxun and Liu Xiaobin attach great importance to this intelligence officer who is also from the field. Even if Liu Xiaobin is unlikely to have a permanent deputy director, and will set up several functional deputy directors according to Li Cunxun's reform plan, Zhang Xiaolong is also the best candidate for the deputy director in charge of operations, thus becoming the No. 2 person in the Military Intelligence Bureau.
Obviously, Pei Chengyi will definitely not snub this future big man.
"General Pei, you're welcome, you can do anything."
"This is the last time Dongfang Wen went back to his hometown to buy, the authentic Ming Qian Longjing." Pei Chengyi brought the freshly brewed tea. "I'm not afraid of your jokes, I rarely drink tea, so I still have more than half a box left
Zhang Xiaolong put the teacup he caught on the coffee table and took out an e-reader he brought.
Pei Chengyi put the cigarette used to entertain the lovely person in front of Zhang Xiaolong, watching the former spy fiddle with high technology.
Soon, a simulated 3D image appeared above the coffee table. To be precise, it's a 3D video with post-processing.
"This catty, the person is the Israeli General Staff Dayan." When Zhang Xiaolong spoke, he froze the video and magnified the person in the image many times. "As the name suggests, he is a genuine Jewish soldier. In fact, he is the former Israeli defense minister, "One-Eyed Dragon." Grandson of General Dayan. We have all the profiles of the elder Dayan, but I believe that real military men should know who Dayan is. ”
"I just don't know. : Did Budayan inherit the military lineage of his ancestors? ”
"There is nothing to doubt about this, three years ago, it was under his command that the Israeli army was counting catties. The defense forces of Syria were dismantled in an hour. Zhang Xiaolong smiled faintly and said, "What's more important is that Xiao Dayan, like his grandfather, is also an army soldier, not an air force general." That is, he is best at ground combat, not air strikes. According to the information we have, before becoming chief of the Israeli army's general staff, Dayan Jr. served in the Golan Brigade for nearly 20 years, from the most junior second lieutenant officer to the brigade commander, he held almost all his duties, and participated in all the battles of the brigade in the century. Except that he did not lose an eye, as his grandfather did, he was not inferior to the old Dayan in any way. In the words of the outside world, Xiao Dayan's mantra is not "rush me" but "rush with me", and the bumper Dayang rushed to the front, and was taken away by death several times
Pei Chengyi smiled. There are no table comments.
In any case, compared with a "iron-blooded soldier" like Dayan, Pei Chengyi lacks a little experience in blood and fire, after all, he is a senior general from a staff officer.
"If little Dayan is just brave, there's nothing to worry about. In fact, he may well be Israel's most talented military man. Zhang Xiaolong paused slightly and said, "I have to admit it." Israel is too small and weak to have any chance of stepping onto the international stage. With the gradual easing of relations between Arab countries and Israel, there has been no large-scale war in the Middle East for more than a century, so Israeli generals are rarely able to show their military talent, but no one can deny the talent of Israeli soldiers.
"So you say. Dayan is our number one opponent? ”
"Counting the number one opponent, in fact, I don't know." Zhang Xiaolong smiled bitterly and said, "We have a lot of personal information about Dayan in our hands, but there are not many of them that really come in handy. Other words. We don't know much about this Israeli soldier. I've reported this to the bureau. It is hoped that a special analyst can be invited to interpret Dayan's information in detail, and at least his personality traits should be grasped. I'm going to talk about it. It is only hoped that the lieutenant general of the Israeli Army will be held in high regard. ”
Pei Chengyi nodded slightly and said, "Du Qiwei went to see him first, and he has been able to prove his talent." ”
"That's the crux of the matter." Zhang Xiaolong activated the reader, lit a cigarette, and then said, "I rushed over when I received the news, and after Du Qiwei returned to Israel, he first went to meet the Israeli Prime Minister Xiao but stayed in the Israeli Prime Minister's Office for less than 15 minutes, and then went to the Israeli General Staff. At least he hadn't left when I came over. In any case, this is enough to prove that Duchway attaches great importance to the Israeli general. ”
"Anyway. Dayan is the chief of the General Staff of the Israeli army. ”
"The question is. According to the relevant agreement between Israel and the United States, the command is already in the hands of Duchway. ”
Pei Chengyi frowned slightly, and motioned for Zhang Xiaolong to make his words clearer.
"Less than two days ago. That is, after the ninth battle arrived in Iraq alone. The President of the United States appointed Duchway to give an ultimatum to the Israeli authorities. To put it bluntly, it is to flop the hole cards with Israel. The results were not unexpected. In the absence of a choice, the Israeli authorities handed over military command. Of course. The US authorities have also made a commitment not to abandon Israel under any circumstances. Zhang Xiaolong paused slightly and said. As expected, within 48 hours of the start of the Middle East war, the U.S. Congress will pass a bill against Israel, urging the U.S. federal government to defend Israel by all means.
"Say so. The United States is going to have a fight with us. ”
"It's secondary. It was also expected by us. Zhang Xiaolong smiled and pulled the topic back, "According to the agreement reached between the United States and the Israeli authorities." During the war, the United States will not only send troops, but will also have full command. That is, if necessary, Duchway can replace the Israeli generals with American generals. In this way, if Dayan did not have some ability, he would definitely not be taken seriously by Du Qiwei. ”
"In any case, the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, and Dayan is the head of the Middle East
"You can say that, and you can't say that." This time, Zhang Xiaolong continued without waiting for Pei Chengyi to ask, "As we all know, Israel is the only military industrial power in the Middle East, and its military industry accounts for more than any other country in the national industrial system.
However, Israel is not a big producer of small arms, and the vast majority of its main battle weapons, especially those of the Air Force, come from the United States. As the most important ally of the United States, Israel not only has the right to acquire the most advanced weapons and equipment of the United States, but can even enable American arms companies to develop and improve weapons and equipment according to Israel's needs. For example, the helicopter gunships and multi-role fighters that Israel purchased from the United States in those years have been comprehensively improved in accordance with the technical indicators put forward by Israel, and their performance is much better than that of the same type of equipment sold to neighboring Arab countries. ”
Pei Chengyi didn't interject, because Zhang Xiaolong hadn't gotten to the point yet.
"All in all. The United States is also well aware of the situation in the Middle East. In fact, in addition to sending troops, the United States has been helping Israel. Among other things, the CIA's relationship with the Mossard is extraordinary. Although in the eyes of many people, the two intelligence agencies are incompatible, and from time to time there are some reports of infighting, the relationship between the two intelligence agencies is very close on key issues, especially in the area of military intelligence related to Israel's national interests. Zhang Xiaolong smiled and said, "To put it mildly, the US authorities' understanding of the Middle East is not below that of Israel. In fact, we have obtained relatively reliable information, and in the past month or so, the most that Duchway has done is not to convince the Turkish and Israeli authorities, but to understand the situation in the Middle East. You may not believe it, but at the end of last month, Duchway spent a week visiting all the battalion-sized combat units of the Israeli army and going around all the Israeli military bases. ”
Pei Chengyi's brows jumped a few times, and his expression became much more serious.
"It was Dayan who accompanied Du Qizan."
That is to say. The two of them have a good relationship. ”
"It's possible, but more importantly, Duchway has reason to respect Dayan, and he has reason to reuse Dayan."
Pei Chengyi frowned slightly, and motioned for Zhang Xiaolong to continue.
"What the U.S. authorities are doing is very similar to our approach of directing the armies of several countries through joint commands, trying to strike a balance in multiple directions, rather than neglecting one or the other. And so it goes. The U.S. authorities would have to consider a similar approach to ours, which would be to establish a front-line command with a joint command of several front-line commands. Zhang Xiaolong paused slightly and said. Unlike us, the US military has not fought a war for nearly 20 years, and its understanding of modern warfare is far inferior to ours, and even inferior to that of the Israeli army. More importantly, the U.S. military lacks a professional military craze like Du Qiwei, especially senior generals with combat experience in commanding large corps. In other words, it is impossible for the US military to send high-ranking generals to form a front-line command like we do. For the U.S. military, the best option is to make full use of the allied forces. In fact, the Turkish Army has been encircling and suppressing the Kurdistan Workers' Party guerrillas in the southern mountains, and it has relatively rich experience in guerrilla warfare and knows how to fight mountain warfare. It is only to ensure the experience and ability of large-scale wars. Obviously, these two capabilities are precisely the advantages of the US military. Not to mention the Israeli army, as the most powerful army in the Middle East, even without the help of the United States, it can defeat any hostile force in the surrounding area. For the Israeli army, all that is needed is to find a backer who can confront us. ”
That is to say. The Dooch Gala will hand over the command of the Southern Front to Dayan? "The prayer address of this site has been changed to: Remove the heart, delete please read the law!
"Exactly. This was also mentioned in the intelligence. Zhang Xiaolong nodded and said, "Although we have not confirmed this, there is reason to believe that Israel will not honestly hand over military command like Turkey, in fact." Israel is not Turkey, and when negotiating with the United States, it has enough bargaining chips to make the United States make concessions, otherwise Landers will not make the Israeli authorities make concessions in the form of an ultimatum. That is, Israel will certainly demand adequate command of the front. Plus the U.S. military has no suitable replacement, so before Dayan made a serious mistake. There was no reason for Dudgway to take away his military command
Pei Chengyi frowned slightly and said, "Did you send the news back?" ”
"I have already gone back at the same time, and Lao Liu will personally talk to General Su Jinhui about this matter.
"It's best to get to the bottom of Dayan as soon as possible."
"That's what we're dealing with first."
"Any other news?"
"Another important piece of news is that the U.S. Navy is fully mobilized
Pei Chengyi smiled bitterly and waited for Zhang Xiaolong to introduce the situation.
"Before you come here. I received the latest satellite reconnaissance report. It has been confirmed that the three US military air "concave groups" operating in the North Atlantic and the western Mediterranean, and the two aircraft carrier battle groups operating in the Indian Ocean and the southwest Pacific have all entered combat status, and the first six aircraft carrier battle groups are either approaching or making preparations for port. According to our estimates, by the end of the month, the U.S. military will deploy at least six carrier battle groups in the Eastern Mediterranean, the Red Sea, and the Arabian Sea, while strengthening Diego Garcia's air force. ”
"That is, not much different from what we expected."
"Basically the same, the difference is that the three aircraft carrier battle groups on the continental United States are very likely to be operational and arrive on the battlefield by the end of next month."
Pei Chengyi frowned slightly. "It doesn't have much impact, and we don't plan to go against the United States anyway," he said. ”
"At least you should be prepared."
"That's for sure, you summarize the relevant information and hand it over to Hu Jingan and Long Hongen, and I will let them adjust their combat deployment according to this situation."
"One more thing, the U.S. Air Force is also adjusting its deployment."
"The reaction is still quite fast."
"Not only is the reaction fast, but the action is also very big." Zhang Xiaolong lit a second cigarette and said, "Judging from the latest reconnaissance report received, the number of combat planes mobilized by the US Air Force is about 800, including about 500 fighters. Unfortunately, there is no more accurate information yet. ”
"Once you have the exact information. Contact me now. ”
Zhang Xiaolong nodded and said, "One last thing." ”
Pei Chengyi frowned, there was really a lot to do. The new address of this site has been changed to: Except for the goo, please log in to read!
"This is what Lao Liu asked me to give to you." Zhang Xiaolong handed an electronic memory card to Pei Chengyi and said, "There is a self-destruct program, and it will self-destruct five seconds after reading, so be careful when using it." ”
"What is so important?"
"It has something to do with something that is going to happen recently."
Pei Chengyi was stunned for a moment, and then understood the meaning of Zhang Xiaolong's words.
"That's it, it's time for me to take my leave. If there is a new Jiang Xi, I will call you. ”
"No problem, even in the middle of the night. Notify me immediately as well. ”
Sending Zhang Xiaolong away, Pei Chengyi stuffed the memory card into the card reader.
Seeing the information inside, he knew that the arrangement of the Military Intelligence Agency was not simple.
The series of operations that began with the stationing of the First Combat Unit in Balochistan were planned and carried out by the Joint Command with the assistance of the Military Intelligence Bureau, with the aim of "disrupting the opponent's strategic judgment and convincing the opponent that the Republic was planning an offensive operation of a huge scale, but it could not let the opponent know or judge the main direction of the Republic's strategic offensive."
In fact, Pei Chengyi did not determine the main direction.
After talking with Li Cunxun, Pei Chengyi adjusted Zhan Zhuo's plan, canceled the order of attack first in the north and then in the south, and proposed to decide the direction of attack according to the actual situation. Fortunately, when formulating the war plan, Pei Chengyi, as he had done in the past, kept one hand and set Ji Ge's thugs very flexibly. And that's exactly what happened. Pei Chengyi's request to change the war plan was supported by Li Cunxun, and it was also agreed by Gu Weimin.
In other words, Bae Seung-yi hopes to find opportunities in the pre-war movement.
It's like a wolf chasing a herd of deer. The slowest deer will become prey to wolves. What Pei Chengyi has to do is to make Israel and Turkey "run" through a series of extremely deceptive pre-war preparations, and then choose a weaker target from among them.
It can be said that Pei Chengyi thought very clearly.
In the absence of a final victory, in order to force the US authorities to end the war, a decisive victory in one direction must be taken first. Mu Yong doubts, first find a weak target to start, in order to lock in half of the victory with the fastest degree.
In fact, the US authorities also understand this, otherwise they would not have let Duchway run for his life.
The problem is that this race must end as soon as possible, because waiting until the United States is ready to go to war again is likely to not win even half of the victory. In this way, there is another thing that must be done well, and that is to let the opponent reveal his flaws in a limited time.
Obviously, this is something that Pei Chengyi can't do.
Anyway, as a general, commanding and fighting is Pei Chengyi's job, but playing with means is not what he is best at.
Let your opponent reveal his flaws. The best thing to do is to let the opponent take the initiative. On the road to war, take a bigger step and a little faster. In any case, the probability of falling on a run is definitely much higher than when walking normally. Therefore, you have to find a way to create something that will make your opponent run, and it will be a desperate run.
There is no doubt that this is what the MIA is good at.
Because he didn't want to directly meddle in intelligence work, Pei Chengyi only made a request, but did not say what to do. Considering Pei Chengyi's identity, Liu Xiaobin also did not report the deployment of the Military Intelligence Bureau in a timely manner. It is precisely in this way that when Pei Chengyi had to be told the appropriate way to act and how to act, Liu Xiaobin used an electronic device with a self-destruct function, the fundamental purpose of which was not to leave any evidence that would be unfavorable to Pei Chengyi's future development.
After seeing the electronic memory automatically destruct, Pei Chengyi went to the officer's cafeteria.
Anyway, Pei Chengyi not only absolutely trusts Liu Xiaobin, but also knows it. If he wants to go to the next level, he has to form an alliance with Liu Xiaobin.
