Chapter 1234: The Roaring Backfire

Before going to bed, he made up his mind to cross, but I don't know how long it took, the dazed young man subconsciously turned over, and vaguely heard a shallow whistling mixed with the sound of the wind in his ears.

The voice, it didn't sound noisy at all, but it continued to "whirring" in his ears, half-asleep and half-awake, unable to figure out the surrounding situation, Long Yun thought he was dreaming again at first, he was confused for a while, only to be awakened by the sudden ringing of electric bells, and got up from the bed.

Oh, no wonder you sleep so soundly, this slight shaking feeling comes from the "Ruslan" on the board......

It has been a long time since the end of the last crossing, at first, the sleepy-eyed Long Yun looked around, he thought he had set an alarm clock before going to bed, but he heard the electric bell still ringing, and then he reacted, this should be a call from the cockpit of the transport plane, or the combat preparation room, which means that the "Ruslan" is approaching the war zone, and will soon release the carrying aircraft.

In this case, as he hurriedly got dressed, someone came and knocked on the door, and he got up and opened the metal hatch and walked in the direction of the nose with Major Anton Nasimov, who had come to check on the situation.

The sky was dark, the dawn had not yet arrived, the vast Northwest Pacific Ocean was surging, and the An-124B, which was extremely large and carrying a Su-27, flew very smoothly, Long Yun quickly walked into the temporary combat preparation room set up on the transport plane, and did not rush to put on anti-load clothing and other equipment, but met with Major Nasimov and the KGB agents on the plane to study the combat information just sent by the General Headquarters.

Heading east at night, with one-way radio silence maintained during the flight, the An-124B "Ruslan" was still able to receive instructions from the General Headquarters via the Guò satellite link.

As agreed prior to departure. On board the plane flew for about six and a half hours. After crossing the Kuril Islands, it penetrates about 1,300 kilometers into the Pacific Ocean. The operatives woke up the lieutenant general's comrades so that they could plan operations based on a series of real-time intelligence and break away from the aircraft at the appropriate time and place to enter the battlefield.

"Okay, Comrade Nasimov, -- let's look at the charts, the computer screen is a little too small."

Approaching the combat sea area by transport plane, in the combat preparation room where there was no porthole on the bulkhead and no outside could be seen, Long Yun could only imagine the dark night sky outside the plane for the time being. The huge transport plane cruising at an altitude of thousands of meters must be as inconspicuous as a shock under the vast sky.

On this moonlit night, the surrounding sky and sea are all shadows and shadows, hidden in endless darkness, but in fact, there is a strong murderous intention.

The current situation, there is no need to ask, Long Yun also knows that the comrades-in-arms of the 239th Regiment who escorted the "Ruslan" have returned, and if nothing else, they are now active in the airspace near the transport plane. It should be the fighter of the carrier-based aircraft unit of the Red Navy, of course, in front of the eastern sky. I am afraid that the number of enemy aircraft is also indispensable.

Before leaving, he saw that the "Ruslan" was equipped with a lot of equipment, and now he really wanted to analyze the battle situation and decide when he would attack with all his might, but Long Yun was still not used to using the green monochrome monitor, and he ordered his entourage to turn on the lights, flick the shorthand love newspaper in his hand, and carefully study and judge the movements of the Americans and the Red Navy against a large nautical chart that was temporarily taped on the wall of the combat command room.

In tonight's battle, the trigger is controlled by him, and when the huge war machine is launched, he no longer needs to make decisions, but only needs to be a competent screw in it.

So, what is the current confrontation between the two sides?

As for naval warfare, although Long Yun had studied at a military academy for several years, he was a complete layman, and it was a little difficult to understand the information sent by military communication satellites, but he had already thought of this, and a staff officer of a lieutenant colonel of the Red Navy who was aboard the "Ruslan" quickly marked the location and course of the various battle groups and ship formations of the Pacific Fleet on the chart, and at the same time, there were also the movements of the US Navy that the fleet had detected so far.

With the assistance of professionals, he quickly figured out the situation on the far sea, and Long Yun found that he had come at the right time, or rather, the winner and loser of this contest had not yet been decided, and it all depended on how the battle in the sky was.

While thinking, Long Yun raised his hand to look at the flight watch, and the time pointed to four o'clock in the morning.

Since last night's departure, the An-124B has been flying in the air for nearly six hours, and he Long Yun, who has slept on the plane for a few hours, is now very energetic in both body and spirit, and is indeed much more comfortable than staying in the cockpit of a fighter all the time.

Looking at the time, and taking into account the difference in time zones, it is estimated that it will take more than an hour for the sun to rise, and in this pre-dawn darkness, a head-to-head duel between the Red Navy and the US Navy is about to begin.

At present, the confrontation is in shape, and the Red Navy and the opponent are still testing each other, and the two sides have not broken out into a real fleet decisive battle.

Sorting out the time and content of the intelligence, it was about the night of the previous day that the Red Navy, which had decided to take the initiative to attack, began to act, and the surface battle group deployed in front of it marched eastward, assuming a posture of attacking with missiles, and at the same time dispatched all the Type 971 attack nuclear submarines to build an anti-submarine defense line on the right side of the two battle groups, that is, in the south, to closely monitor the underwater situation and prevent the American nuclear submarines from taking the opportunity to infiltrate.

This is the case in the southern seas, where the shore-based long-range anti-submarine patrol aircraft of the Pacific Fleet are responsible for the waters north of the battle group.

In addition, in order to cooperate with the actions of the navy, VVS fighters taking off from the Kamchatka Peninsula are also frequently moving in the northern skies, which must be summarized to the desks of US commanders through the guò intelligence network and reconnaissance system; Next, as for how the Yankees will respond, we can only speculate empirically.

In the face of the powerful US Navy's three-aircraft carrier battle group, the Red Navy's strategy seems to be very clear, that is, to use anti-submarine helicopters, anti-submarine ships, and attack nuclear submarines to carry out underwater defense, and carrier-based fixed-wing fighters to provide air protection; In terms of surface ships, they mainly adopt an active defensive posture and are dispatched, so it seems that the main force against the US Navy is the long-range bomber force of the Red Navy, in addition to several cruise missile nuclear submarines equipped with P-700 heavy anti-ship missiles.

The situation in the Red Navy, as it is at the moment, is that both heavy aircraft-carrying cruisers are in a state of first class combat readiness, frequently flying Su-27Ks to maintain the air defense circle.

In terms of fighter sorties and air supremacy efficiency, the Red Navy, which lacks fixed-wing early warning aircraft, is not as fortunate as its American counterpart, except for the MR-700/710/800 three-coordinate warning radar carried on large surface ships and the "Sky Sentinel" passive phased array radar on the 1143.5 "Tbilisi" heavy aircraft-carrying cruiser, there is no other long-range detection means, for which on the one hand shore-based long-range fighters such as Tu-95M and Tu-22M3 are needed as reconnaissance means. On the other hand, it is necessary to fly fighter jets more frequently to maintain the alert force in the airspace ahead of the fleet.

Of course, this was the case with the Red Navy, and the US Navy fleet deep into the ocean was about the same.

Relying on a battlefield situational awareness network composed of reconnaissance planes, early warning planes, nuclear submarines, and military satellites, the Americans' battlefield reconnaissance methods are still a little insufficient in the vast Pacific Ocean.

Confrontation and friction are probably the battlefield melodies of the past two or three days, but for a group of dozens of large and medium-sized warships, even if they act in a low-key manner, they cannot always hide their whereabouts on the modern battlefield; after several days of reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance, attack and counter-attack and counter-attack and disturbance, the two sides have each lost a small part of their submarines, surface ships, and carrier-based aircraft, but they have gradually clarified their operational concepts, and just before dawn today, this battle will have a tragic ending that will inevitably break out.

After learning about the movements of the fleets of the two sides, Long Yun seized the time to take into account the air situation information sent by the General Headquarters with Major Nasimov, and he soon learned that the three bomber regiments of the Red Navy had set off and were approaching the war zone with a large number of anti-ship missiles at this time.

The current coordinates of the Tu-22M3, the flaming heavy sword of the enemy that raided the far seas, the bomber formations are absolutely classified, but now a qiē is the highest priority for support operations.

Obtaining the coordinates from the secret telegram relayed by the satellite, Nasimov and his assistant were constantly busy, marking them one by one on the chart.

Watching the two of them busy on the side, Long Yun casually flipped through the secret telegram, right now, the Tu-22M3 group that rose from many bases, the 317th Guards Bomber Aviation Regiment and the Red Flag 201st Bomber Aviation Regiment flew from the west, and the 68th Bomber Aviation Regiment crossed the Okhotsk Sea and headed south, in addition, the Red Flag 22nd Bomber Aviation Regiment stationed in Kamchatka also attacked an hour ago, plus other air forces for escort, reconnaissance and feints, on the vast Northwest Pacific, Now there are more than 100 heavy bombers alone, and an unprecedentedly violent large-scale missile group is just around the corner!

The momentum of the four bomber regiments and hundreds of thunder monsters loaded with anti-ship missiles is of course very amazing, and the US fleet at night seems to have become meat on the chopping block, which will soon be wiped out by meteorite-like missiles.

However, unlike the enthusiastic imagination of ordinary people, Long Yun's mind is still very clear.

In order for the "bomber" and "anti-ship missile" hammer of the red giant to play a role, it is first necessary to know where the enemy is and to provide sufficient accurate support for the enemy's situation.

But now, it is difficult to say whether this goal has been accomplished, at least judging from the information he has obtained, the cunning US Navy is still maneuvering frequently in the depths of the ocean, the location of the aircraft carrier is not yet known, coupled with electronic jamming and deception tactics, this battle will not be as simple as a simple missile shooting battle.
