Chapter 165 165 Blocking
The PLA Navy's seizure of reefs in the South China Sea was soon discovered by Malaysia. In fact, this was also deliberately made known by the Navy, because on the day of the occupation of the South China Sea Reef, the Marines on the Super Fortress boarded a 20-ton wave-piercing command boat assigned to each reef and began to cruise in the vicinity of the South China Sea Reef.
The South China Sea Reef is only sixty or seventy kilometers away from the Dangan Reef in the base camp of the Spratly Islands and Reefs occupied by Malaysia, and it is even closer to the Guangxingzi Reef, so the marines walked a few laps casually for the Malaysians to see, and reported the relevant situation to their upper peak. Later, the Malaysians also sent small boats to investigate, and finally saw the sea fortress in the waters near the South China Sea Reef, which I don't know when the road was built.
The dinghy wanted to take a closer look, but when it spotted an attempt to enter the territorial waters of the reef, the Marines quickly took a Z-9 Dolphin helicopter into the air and then shouted at the reconnaissance boat to drive it away.
At this time, it was already early October, and Malaysia was planning to send troops to land on the island for actual occupation in the name of the exercise, but it did not expect that the South China Sea reef, which was part of the plan for this illegal occupation, had already been taken by the Chinese.
Vice Admiral Abdullah Abdullah, the Royal Malaysian Navy who led the seizure of Koh Star Reef and South China Sea Reef? Aziz? Ha Xin's face was full of anger, "There is no sign at all, and the Chinese will suddenly send troops for nothing!" ”
It's a pity that none of his horse monkey staff can answer his words. Malaysia is a fairly ethnically divided society, with Malays in politics who are in a demographic position and can work as civil servants, police officers and soldiers, Chinese in general in business, and immigrants from India in agricultural activities such as rubber tapping. To be precise, neither the Malays, nor the Chinese, nor the Indians are the aborigines of the Malayan Peninsula and North Borneo, but all immigrants.
This kind of caste, which is not a caste system, makes it impossible for anyone of other races to exist in the office of the navy, and all of them are Malay devils like dry and thin monkeys.
A staff officer shook his head and suggested, "General, now is not the time for us to hold accountable. The soldiers did not detect the Chinese building fortifications on Mandanani Reef (known as the South China Sea Reef in China) in advance, which did not help us in our next operations. Instead of thinking about these things, think about how to counter the aggression of the Chinese. ”
Ha Xin clenched his brown fist and scolded: "Chinese, hum, it reminds me of the time when they supported the MCP twenty years ago, these are some inferior peoples, all should be chopped up and fed to dogs." ”
This nationalist narrative resonates with a group of Malays, the country's second-largest ethnic group, who hold the economic lifeblood of Malaysia and who always seem richer than the Malays. The reason is simple, because the Chinese are very industrious and thrifty, not as lazy and profligate as the Malays and Indians, so they can always accumulate a seemingly large amount of money. This made the Malays jealous when they saw it, and the Malays repeatedly wanted to rob the Chinese of their property.
"We defeat them and retake Mandanani Reef, just as we did on May 13, and let the cowards taste our awesomeness!" Others shouted that the so-called May 13 incident was the darkest period in Malaysia's history, a multi-month ethnic conflict that began when the opposition outnumbered the ruling party in Malaysia's general election and enraged UMNO members marched in the streets, culminating in violent clashes.
In this incident, the Malaysian government sent military police to quell the unrest, but the Malay military and police maintained the scene with strong racist overtones, and thousands of Chinese were killed in the whole incident, and tens of thousands of Chinese were arrested.
Although they had the ability to kill thousands of Chinese more than ten years ago, now this brainless Malay naval staff officer shouted that he wanted to let the PLA Navy taste the might, even if most of the people here discriminated against the Chinese, but none of them dared to say that they would definitely be able to win against the Chinese.
China has millions of troops, Southeast Asia's hegemonic Vietnam, which has been beaten to the ground, and last year they also participated in the suppression of the Korean rebellion, and this year's RIMPAC military exercise, the Chinese navy was unanimously praised by Western countries. The size of the Chinese Navy is more than ten times the size of the Royal Malaysian Navy. The fact that they were able to build a "stilt house" without realizing it, or whether it was more than a thousand kilometers away from their homeland, shows that their strength is not a little bit stronger than that of Malaysia.
If they knew that not long ago, the Chinese army beat the Soviet army to the ground, I wonder if Lu Dao would dare to stay here for a minute longer.
Another person came up with an idea: "Let's ask for the help of the British, the British Royal Navy can defeat Argentina thousands of miles away, and come to our home stadium to defeat China and help us retake Mandanani Reef." ”
This proposal was again ridiculed, Britain and Argentina were already exhausted in the Falklands War, to be honest, although Britain won, but not beautifully, lost destroyers, frigates and other large ships, and lost hundreds of years of glory of the Royal Navy. Moreover, Britain fought the Falklands War for its own interests after all, and now Malaysia is an independent country, even if it is also a Commonwealth country, as a former suzerain, for a reef that cannot stand people, and run thousands of miles away to fight another war with China, how much internationalism and nosy spirit does Britain need.
"Don't think about it, China is also a nuclear power, a member of the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council, if Britain wants to make a move with China, the United States will definitely not allow its allies to fight in the nest." Because of its performance in the past year or so, China has stood on the side of the United States, so the outside world has begun to see China as a renegade socialist country, so it is naturally a quasi-ally with Britain.
The Malaysian admirals, who had just been shouting so cheerfully, were speechless because they found that they really couldn't go to war with China. Even if it is closer to them, China has an "aircraft carrier", and if it gets rid of it, this cabinet may be completely destroyed by them.
"So what should we do, do we just let the Chinese insult us in front of our eyes?" Hahim said angrily.
The staff officer said: "Unfortunately, General, the wolf must know the ability of the wolf, he can bully the goat, but he can never bully the elephant. However, we must not sit idly by, although Mandanani Reef has been occupied by the Chinese, but they are not yet capable of occupying Raya Reef (Guangxing Reef), we must seize this place in advance to form a favorable defensive posture against the Chinese, and we cannot let the Chinese advance any more! ”
They have no choice but to be encroached upon by the Chinese Navy little by little, leaving only a corner of the projectile reef, or they will try to seize other reefs and form an encirclement of the South China Sea reefs occupied by China, and ultimately protect their maritime interests.
Under the guidance of this strategic thinking, the Royal Malaysian Navy soon held this "military exercise" one day ahead of the original timeline, and their largest and strongest capital ship, the Kasuri, led several World War II-era landing ships acquired from the Americans to Guangxing Reef next to Guangxing Reef, preparing to take it in one fell swoop, forming a north-south confrontation with China, which occupies the South China Sea reef in the north.
Jian Guangfu, a Marine guarding the reef in the South China Sea, immediately spotted the enemy's trace through the radar station of the super fortress, and immediately sent a report to the ships cruising nearby to coordinate and prevent the other side from carrying out any harmful actions.
Several light frigates of the South China Sea Fleet have been cruising in the waters of Zhongsha and Nansha, and when their mission is over, there will be another light frigate from Zhanjiang and Hainan to take over their mission. However, there was a shortage of manpower, so most of the sailors on the corvettes were Red Alert soldiers.
At the time of receiving the call for help from the South China Sea Reef, the nearest patrol group was near the Kujo Islands, consisting of two light frigates and a 054A that had not yet completed its ocean-going training mission. This 054A is the Jiaxing, which belongs to the East China Sea Fleet, and is doing adaptive training in the South China Sea at this time.
After the Navy Command formulated a new training program, it required each ship of each fleet to conduct an exercise once a year in the area under the jurisdiction of other fleets to familiarize itself with the hydrological situation and enhance cooperation among the ships. And the destroyer Shenzhen, which had escorted the sea fortress earlier, had already returned. The destroyer, which had been in service for a year and had made several voyages, was about to return to Huludao for an overhaul.
The Jiaxing and the two corvettes immediately rushed towards the South China Sea Reef at maximum speed, because of the relatively high alert, so their reaction speed was very fast, and they arrived in this sea area earlier than the Malaysians who were closer. At this time, the wave-piercing boat belonging to the fortress platform of the South China Sea Reef had already begun to circle around the vicinity of Guangxing Reef, and the Malaysians consciously did it secretly, but unfortunately before they even planned to do it, the PLA Navy knew what they would do.
"Do whatever it takes to prevent Malaysians from entering Koh Star Reef!" The order came from Liu Huaqing himself, and Qi Yiming naturally strongly supported it.
So when the Royal Malaysian Navy came here with pride, it found that one large and two small white Chinese warships were around Guangxing Reef, one separated it from Guangxingzi Reef, and the other was sitting on the west side, while the Jiaxing boldly went forward, blocking the middle of the projectile reef and Guangxing Jiao, and even the 20-ton wave-piercing boat had a look of dissatisfaction with my expression, and played waves at the distance of the Kasuri at a distance of only two or three hundred yards.
The signal is clear - want to go to the island? Pass Lao Tzu's level first!
