Chapter 1738: History Repeats Itself

Two SR-71 Blackbirds roared through the dark sky towards eastern Mindanao, and the system operator said over the radio: "We are close to the target." ”

Ivan said: "Roger! ”

"Putting high pressure on the radar increases the probability of a target," Bryant said. ”

"Understood!" The two system operators agreed at the same time, set the radar to long-range mode, slowly turned a knob with a flashing green light, and the pencil-like slender radar wave was constantly updated to inform the vast area ahead, and the radar on the general reconnaissance aircraft could not form enough radar reflection waves to appear on the radar screen, and only bombers, large and medium-sized transport aircraft, and other targets with a large radar reflection area could be revealed, but for the SR-71, these were not a problem. Finally, a bright speck appeared on the head-up display, and the actual position was converted, and the system operator said excitedly.

"Now the radar reflects the wave, the distance is 32o, and the azimuth is 176. Our high 85oo, 4oo! ”

Kobe Bryant smiled: "Ivan, lower the height by 7oo, we will conduct low-altitude reconnaissance." ”

Ivan hesitated and said, "Kobe, it's dangerous to do this. ”

Kobe Bryant said disdainfully: "Ivan, why are you getting less and less courageous, the country of the Philippines doesn't have a few missiles, and you still expect a group of natives who only know how to have bombs tied to their bodies?" ”

It is true that the Philippines not only lacks the large military equipment needed for large-scale warfare, the navy lacks large ships, the air force lacks advanced fighters, the 6th Army lacks tanks and artillery, and it also lacks missiles necessary for modern warfare. The entire Philippine military has no missiles, not even man-portable missiles, except for some old Sidewinder missiles in the Air Force.

Thinking of this, Ivan couldn't help but laugh at himself: "Go down to seven, turn on the reconnaissance equipment." ”

Two system operators turned on the electrical reconnaissance and photographic equipment to monitor and record the terrain, buildings, and personnel activities in the area.

At this time, the runway lights of the 3rd Division of the Air Force in West Mindanao and the air base were suddenly turned on, and 6 MD-5OO helicopters took off slowly on the tarmac, and then the iron door in front of the hangar in the distance creaked slowly open, and the 2 light attack planes slowly drove towards the tow under the traction of the tractor, and under the glow of the runway lights and navigation lights, the two white missiles under the belly of the aircraft reflected a colorful halo, and the numbers and logos on the earthy yellow fuselage had been covered with newly sprayed white paint. As soon as the two planes came to a stop, the two pilots climbed onto the plane and made an OK gesture to each other, and after hearing the command center's order, the plane began to taxi on the runway with a roar, and then the nose of the plane leaned sharply, and the huge fuselage rose from the ground and disappeared into the night sky in the blink of an eye.

A middle-aged man in his forties, dressed in military uniform, stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling windows of the conning tower, looked at the vanished fighter jet and sighed.

"Elmer, do you think we're right or wrong?"

Elmer is the chief of staff of the 1st Air Force Division and the number 2 person in the 1st Division, and he didn't know how to answer when he heard the middle-aged man's words, and said after a while: "Division Commander Nagra, I don't know if it's right or wrong, but I know that from the cabinet to the local governments, it has fallen to a very strict point." And more officials buy votes, cheat, and vote to win elections and work in government departments, these people are generally not high, and their only purpose in government work is to embezzle, make money, and live a life of purple and gold, and our people, there are still many people below the poverty line, if this kind of shape continues, I really can't see where the future of our country is. ”

Nagra's eyes showed a deep sadness: "Yes, it's time to break this qiē, the continuous growth of the various anti-government forces also proves that the people have become disillusioned with our government and are dissatisfied with us. If this continues, when more people turn this dissatisfaction into anger, their only way to vent is to riot, and the whole Philippines will be in turmoil, and even a civil war will break out, and then it will really be over. ”

Elmer took out a cigar in his pocket, but didn't light it, and whispered, "Master Nagra, do you feel that history is repeating itself?" ”

Nagra was stunned for a moment, then understood what Elmer meant. After World War II, the Philippines was once the richest country in Southeast Asia. However, in the past few decades, the Philippine economy has stagnated, social turmoil has been repeated, and the gap between the rich and the poor has widened. Manuel, the president at the time, had the nickname Mr. Ten when he was a member of parliament, which meant that he would receive a 10 percent kickback if he was approached. Later, when they took over the presidential palace, Manuel and his wife Yimer extorted businessmen, embezzled public funds, stole the state treasury, and embezzled state property.

In order to maintain his rule, Manuel was cronyistic, and his family business also took the opportunity to make a lot of money. It monopolized 90 percent of the market in all industries in the country, and received huge government subsidies after losing money. During his 20-year reign, Manuel's entire family and subordinates transferred as much as $200 million in foreign property, saddling the Philippines, a debt-free country, with a foreign debt of up to $27 billion, and 70 out of 550,000 Filipinos destitute.

In September '72, Manuel announced the imposition of military control throughout the country, prohibiting assemblies, processions, and strikes, and a large number of politicians, journalists, and students who opposed him were arrested, and began a decade-long military control. In the past ten years, the entire Philippines has been in turmoil, and the people are struggling to make a living. It was not until '84 that the National Assembly was re-elected, and the opposition party won a tenth of all the seats in one fell swoop, and the opposition began to grow. In order to re-establish the legitimacy of his rule, Manuel decided to hold a presidential election a year earlier. During the election process, Manuel relied on the propaganda advantage of the state to control the election, and many votes were tampered with and a large number of invalidated. In the end, Manuel won by a huge margin, but the incident drew strong condemnation at home and abroad, and the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives passed a resolution asking the government to suspend aid to Manuel. Many people in the Philippines also immediately announced a boycott of the election results and called on people from all walks of life to hold strikes and marches.

Tens of thousands of Filipinos took to the streets to demonstrate against Manuel's dictatorship. Several high-ranking military officials mutinied, and Manuel hurriedly sent troops to suppress it, but was blocked by hundreds of thousands of people, and the government army began to defect en masse. Eighty-five percent of the 250,000 troops have defected to the mutinous side. Ninety percent of government agencies and departments have announced their separation from the Manueline government, and Philippine diplomatic envoys to countries around the world have declared that they no longer represent the Manueline government. The U.S. government confirmed that the Manuel era was over and asked him to resign. The protesters surrounded the presidential palace that day, and under the defection of the army and the departure of the rebels, Manuel took the US military helicopter and left Hawaii, so that Manuel's regime ended, but the Philippines paid a big price, and the turmoil for more than ten years made the Philippines a thousand holes.

Amor sighed: "Long pain is better than short pain, only after the pain can the Philippines usher in a new sky." But although the current shape is evolving back to the time of the Manueline regime, I can guarantee that in the next twenty years, history will repeat itself. But now there is still the same journey as it was back then, and many people still have hope. If we succeed, there's nothing to say, history is written by successful people. If it fails, the Agino regime will never let us go lightly, and will definitely turn black and white against us in a big way, and let the people who do not know the truth nail us to the frame of shame and spit on us for eternity. ”

Nagra nodded, looking out the window with a somewhat vague look: "You're right, only the Philippines after labor pains can usher in a new sky." Let's work together to overturn the current political situation. No matter what the final result is, even if you fail, at least you have worked hard, and you will not regret it. ”

Dossa and Marcos were chatting, but their eyes kept looking at the night sky, as if they were still looking for a meteor that had just disappeared.

Over time,

Dosa's expression became a little nervous, and Marcos patted him on the shoulder: "As long as they dare to come, let them have no return." ”

Dosa said softly: "Do you say that the news of the Philippines 1 is accurate? ”

Marcos shook his head: "I don't know, but they just owe us a favor, and I think this news should be true." ”

Dosa took a deep breath and spit it out, looking at the men and women who were still singing and dancing around the campfire, although the atmosphere was still so warm, he could clearly feel that everyone was tense and their eyes were getting more and more serious.

"Hope for a qiēshun lì!"

The night was getting deeper and deeper, and on the peaks covered by the jungle, anti-aircraft guns and dozens of 4omm anti-aircraft machine guns were hidden under camouflage nets, and the thick muzzles and black holes were already aimed at the sky. Shells and boxes of thumb-thick bullets were neatly placed there, and an Abu Sayyaf armed man lay under the fallen leaves, waiting for the enemy to arrive.

And less than two kilometers away from the base, a small clearing hidden in the dense forest, a tent was erected. Outside the tent, a high-powered diesel engine was roaring to work, and in the forest more than 10 meters away, the radar on the radar station was slowly rotating.

This is the headquarters of Abu Sayyaf, at this time Abu Sayyaf's eyes are firmly fixed on the radar screen, at about ten o'clock two looming points of light appeared, and an armed unit sitting in front of the computer excitedly shouted: "It's about 2oo kilometers away, they are coming." ”

Abu Sayyaf laughed: "The Philippines 1 did not lie to us, it seems that we earned by handing over those two Chinese to them, otherwise we will be in big trouble." But now......" said Abu Sayyaf, a sinister smile on his face, "whether it's government forces or the hateful Yankees, I'm going to keep them going." Let them know that I, Abu Sayyaf, am awesome. ”

In the eastern part of Mindanao, where the mountains are undulating and the river valley is deep, two SR-71 Blackbird reconnaissance planes quietly broke in and flew at an altitude of 7oo meters. The advanced electrical reconnaissance and photographic equipment on board was not affected by the night, and clearly recorded the activities of the jungle, buildings and personnel on the ground.

At this moment, a system operator laughed: "Found them, what do you see these yellow monkeys doing?" Are you having a party? ”
