"What considerations and arrangements does the General Staff have for this situation?" Vice Chairman Liu asked, after emphasizing the difficulties, he needed to see if the answers of the General Staff Department were the same as he thought.

"The operational plan of the General Staff Department is to strengthen the air force on Woody Island and Taiping Island, which have been relatively well established by us, and each station a main J-11C fighter regiment, Woody Island is close to various bases on the coast of the Vietnamese army, and the J-11C heavy fighters improved by our army will not lose their combat power to the SU-35 and can maintain strong air pressure on the Vietnamese department.

The stationing of a J-11C main regiment on Taiping Island can cover the entire Nansha Islands to the south, deter the Philippine military movement to the east, and echo Woody Island to the west to maintain deterrence against the Vietnamese Air Force. Once the Nansha Islands are recovered, our army will immediately sort out the larger islands such as Nanwei Island, Thitu Island, Xiyue Island, and Feixin Island, which have relatively good conditions, and strive to put another J-11C main force regiment on these four major islands, so as to form two J-11C main force regiments in Nansha, and cooperate with about three battalions of marines, plus the air defense missile system and the newly formed Nansha Evacuation Detachment, so that without the interference of foreign forces, our military strength to protect the islands will be fully capable of holding out until the arrival of the main fleet of the Navy. ”

With nearly 100 advanced J-11C fighters that can respond to each other as the main force in the air, its strength is already enough to be proud of the countries of the South China Sea, although the strength of a detachment is weaker than that of the navies of some countries, but with the support of air superiority, relying on island defense operations, it is not something that the countries of the South China Sea can defeat overnight.

This plan of the General Staff Department has taken into account the naval and air forces of the South China Sea countries in a more thorough manner, and in the absence of interference by foreign forces, it is obviously not a force that the South China Sea countries dare to shake easily. It should be relatively certain to defend the Nansha Islands.

Vice Chairman Liu nodded frequently after listening, "With this arrangement, we have invested more than 2,000 people in the Nansha Islands, and the pressure on logistical support is not too great, but the combat power is very considerable, and it can be said that in most cases, we can deal with the challenges of all parties in the South China Sea alone. For the large-scale development of offshore oil and gas fields in the South China Sea, with such a force as the backing, it will no longer encounter unreasonable expulsion from outsiders.

"Did the Marine Corps select a unit?" Vice Chairman Liu suddenly asked.

"After the exercise begins, we are temporarily considering using the 1st and 2nd Battalions of the 1st Marine Brigade of the South China Sea Fleet to seize and defend the western islands of Nansha such as Spratly Island, and the 1st Battalion of the 66th Marine Brigade of the Pacific Fleet to seize Thitu Island, Xiyue Island, Feixin Island, and other eastern islands, and hand them over to the 2nd Battalion of the 1st Marine Brigade for defense after completing the combat mission. Except for Spratly Island, which is a tough battle, it will not be much difficult to seize the rest of the islands, and the main problem will be concentrated on the garrison in the later stage. In the future, our army will adopt the method of rotational warfare to realize the actual combat training of the navy's three continental combat brigades. ”

It seems that Vice Chairman Liu is also very satisfied with this consideration of the General Staff, the army, how can you improve your combat strength if you don't pull it out and practice more, the countries in the South China Sea are generally not strong except for the Yue Monkey, and it is appropriate to let the people below practice their hands. In Vice Chairman Liu's eyes, they are just small fish and shrimp, and the real opponent is the behemoth of the US aircraft carrier formation that is swimming in the South China Sea.

On the contrary, Vice Chairman Liu predicted that in the process of China's rise, this time had just begun, and that a strong collision with the US military would be indispensable in the future, and that the strong would always win the future in bloody battles, and without the identity of the main victorious country in World War I and World War II, the Yankees would not have been able to become a world hegemonic country, and the Chinese nation would inevitably need victory after victory if it wanted to break this hegemony.

"How do you think about dealing with the threat of the US military?" Vice Chairman Liu asked: The deployment of this force against the countries of the South China Sea is already a killing knife, and the key to resolving the South China Sea issue is still how to deal with the threat and interference of the US military.

"According to our intelligence, the US military has stationed two F-35 squadrons at Fikrak Air Base, and if our army has perfected the radar early warning system on the Nansha islands and reefs, the US military will only dispatch two F-35 squadrons, and with the help of the two J-11C main regiments of the Nansha defense line of the HNA Air Force, it will be enough to deal with it in the skies over Nansha.

However, if the US military dispatches another aircraft carrier and carrier-based aircraft group, our military will have to rely on the island's air defense system to maneuver with the enemy and wait for the help of Hainan and Woody Island bases; the Woody Island air force fighters can arrive at the battlefield in just half an hour to directly participate in the battle, and the fighters taking off from the Hainan base can also insist on arriving at the battlefield in one and a half hours at most after receiving a refueling in the air. ”

"It will take at least half an hour for US fighters to take off from Clark Air Force Base to reach Nansha Zhudao, that is to say, our army's reinforcements from Yongxing Island will arrive almost simultaneously with US fighters, and with the support of the island's air defense system, the three main J-11C regiments of the HNA should be able to hold out until the main fighters of the Air Force at Hainan Base arrive."

"On the battlefield at sea, we will keep 6 to 8 submarines patrolling and fighting in the South China Sea all year round, and if the US aircraft carrier formation confirms that it is ready to participate in the war, our submarine force will carry out a decisive strike, according to the experience of tracking the USS Ford aircraft carrier last time, if the 039A or 041 class submarines are deployed, our submarines have at least three-quarters of a chance to approach the effective combat range of the US aircraft carrier within 20 nautical miles, plus 3 destroyer drone special battalions and shore-based anti-ship missile systems, our army has a high probability of heavy damage to the US aircraft carrier formation."

"Judging from the battle of the Diaoyutai and Taiwan Island sea and air, the Destroyer UAV with shore-based anti-ship missiles, even the Aegis system defense is very difficult, the main air defense force of the US aircraft carrier formation is 2 to 3 air defense cruisers or destroyers, the air defense force of the fleet is not much different from the 2nd escort group of the little devils, if the Air Force can entangle their carrier-based aircraft, there is no air opponent, the high-altitude dive attack of the Destroyer UAV is very effective for a behemoth like an aircraft carrier."

With Nanhai Zhudao, just like having several unsinkable aircraft carriers, this operational plan of the General Staff Department is a decent reference plan, in addition to being unable to cope with extreme situations, such as the fact that the South China Sea countries and the US military will attack on all fronts, and in the face of local conflicts, all kinds of large-scale wars have been taken into account.

After listening to this operation, Vice Chairman Liu nodded, feeling that although there are still some deficiencies, it is enough from a strategic level, and the remaining specific tactical details will be left to the "Determination-2019" exercise headquarters and the Nansha base after the successful seizure of the island. After all, Nansha is relatively far away from us, and it is impossible for the navy to place its main forces in this place, as long as it can cope with small-scale conflicts and solve the attacks and harassment of certain hostile forces.

In order to really fight a decisive battle in the South China Sea with such a behemoth as the US aircraft carrier group, it is still necessary to dispatch the main forces of the South China Sea Fleet and the Pacific Fleet, and the strength of the Nansha base can support 48 hours before waiting for reinforcements from the main forces of the Navy.
