Chapter 455: Divide the troops and search
After receiving a text message from the "director team", Yang Guang, commander of the 38th Task Force, immediately brought the fleet into a state of first-level combat readiness. Yang Guang believes that judging from the recent convulsions of the "director team", at least half of the 500 people mentioned in the text message must be directly transmitted to the vicinity of the actual control area of the Maozi Pacific Fleet or the John Bull Far East Fleet, and there may even be an unfortunate scene of the "Northwest-class" amphibious assault ship L9013 directly colliding head-on with the hostile warship.
The "Warship Bird" and the AV-8B "Sea Harrier" attack aircraft of the "Red-headed Gull" attack group were all raised from the hangar to the deck, and they were all put into a state of live ammunition ready to fly.
"Let the three 'Sea Harriers' of the 'Red-headed Gull' attack group patrol in the direction of the British's Far East Fleet, and the 9013 ship and the F237 ship will be on standby in order to support the possible situation in that direction at any time, and our ship and the F217 ship will search for the traces of the teleported personnel in the direction of Cam Ranh Bay." Because he couldn't figure out the specific teleportation point of the "director team", Yang Guang could only make the decision to divide the troops to search.
However, Yang Guang's decision is still very risky, the L9013 ship is currently in a semi-paralyzed state, and he took the "Dreadnought II" class destroyer and the "Brandenburg" class frigate to the direction of Cam Ranh Bay, leaving only the "Duke" frigate and the coal-burning "Zhenyuan" ship to protect the "crippled" "Mistral" class amphibious frigate is indeed very risky. Task Force 38 alone against John Bull's Far East Fleet or Maozi's Pacific Fleet was a very simple matter.
However, once these four modern ships are in the limelight, the situation will be different, first of all, the AV-8B "Sea Harrier" attack aircraft is notoriously short-legged, once the "Dreadnought II" class destroyer and "Brandenburg" class frigate leave the L9013 ship more than a nautical mile distance, Yang Guang will not be able to get air support.
Although two Westland Sea Cat Mk?88 anti-submarine/search helicopters and two Ka-27 helicopters were parked in the hangars of the "Dreadnought II" destroyers and the "Brandenburg" class frigates, the 38th Task Force, which was damaged by the lack of programming by the "director's team," did not have a single helicopter pilot at all.
When the Dreadnought II.-class destroyer and the Brandenburg-class destroyer left the L9013 ship, once the AV-8B attack aircraft of the Red-headed Gull strike group were out, the "crippled" amphibious assault ship could only count on the 4.5-inch MK-8 automatic naval gun of the "Duke"-class frigate to save its life.
In fact, the biggest risk posed by the division of forces is that the current ammunition reserves of Task Force 38 are insufficient to deal with Maozi's Pacific Fleet and John Bull's Far East Fleet in both seas. Relying on these small-caliber naval guns to solve the battle by washing the deck, the consumption of ammunition must have been staggering. Of course, if you can guarantee that every torpedo will hit the vital point of the enemy ship, there will still be a surplus of ammunition. However, in real combat, torpedoes are often not very stable against moving ships, even if these torpedoes are based on the advanced guidance technology of the 21st century.
However, the text message of the "director team" is a spell for the traversers, and they all clearly know that they simply cannot afford to have traversers or materials and equipment fall into the hands of the enemy, which is a major matter related to the death of all beings who travers, and it is worth Yang Guang's risk to divide his troops to deal with.
Since the "director team" has completely convulsed, D+X has no practical meaning other than to commemorate the landing of the traversal, and the transmission of materials and personnel has become more and more casual for the traversal, and Kenben has no rules to find. However, in this convulsive operation of the "director team", the first person to pour blood mold was Li Bingheng, the governor of Shandong. In order not to show weakness to John Bull, the traversers had to spend a lot of resources to maintain the garrison in Yantai. And Li Bingheng's countermeasure of "breaking down but not dispersing" in order to defend the Beijing division made the officials of the Provisional Executive Committee very annoying.
Finally, at the moment when the "director team" text message appeared on the screen of the mobile phone of the traversal, Zhao Yi, who had been on fire for a long time, broke out. Beheading! This governor of Shandong, who was several grades higher than Wu Dashi of the Jinshi family in terms of logistics organization, had already angered the members of the Provisional Executive Committee, and the bigwigs wanted to divert their energy to the matter of search and rescue that had been teleported over to the survival of the people. However, under the organization of Li Bingheng, those Qing troops who were advancing towards the retreat were like Xiaoqiang, clinging to the troops stationed in Yantai, which made the princes of the Provisional Executive Committee determined to kill them.
"I think the ground guidance mission of this decapitation operation will be carried out by Yuan Jie and the airborne troops she trained, and we will integrate An Yanxin's Navy SEALs and Diana's airborne team into the search and rescue team." Zhao Yi said.
"Can they do it? Don't jump down and wait for someone to save you! Hao Dajian said.
"Li Bingheng's elite troops have all gone to the front line in Yantai, and Yuan Jie's actions behind enemy lines this time are at best the difficulty of the exercise. Now that we have the V-22 Osprey transport aircraft with better range and carrying capacity, it is easy to withdraw ground forces after completing the ground guidance mission. I think it's better to let them train and exercise, because a unit that has not experienced actual combat will never become a strong army. Lu Xiangyang said.
"Hurry up and roll up your sleeves and do it, as long as Li Bingheng falls, the Qing troops in Yantai who were beaten out of Xiang by us will definitely disperse immediately. At that time, the troops carrying out ground guidance did not have to wait for the 'Osprey' to respond, and they could all walk from Jinan to Yantai. Feng Yunyi felt that the reason why the Qing army was still able to survive was entirely because of Li Bingheng.
According to the information provided by the Military Intelligence Department, Li Bingheng has been supervising the battles on the front line in Jinan and Yantai, and all of his footholds in the past month or so have been within the combat radius of the F-35 "Feidian". As long as Yuan Jie and the others find Li Bingheng's foothold, a laser beam that guides the "Paveroad Path" precision-guided bomb can make this loyal minister of the Qing Dynasty go to the ancestral hall to enjoy incense forever.
"If we had made up our minds to kill this old immortal earlier, we wouldn't have had to let the newly formed paratroopers parachute at all. When Ya was still sitting upright in the lobby of the Shandong Governor Yamen in Jinan, we could send him to the west with a single 'Tomahawk' cruise missile, but now it's okay to mess around, and we are waiting to send ground troops to verify intelligence guidance and precision-guided bombs! Chopper said.
"Yo ho, with Li Bingheng's kind of goods, it is still worth us to use the 'Tomahawk' cruise missile, you are too much to promote him!? Whoever can be worthy of the price of 'Tomahawk' has to be a prince! Da Chen Yongqing said.
"That's right, in the absence of enough fuel to make the Tu-160 fly, the 'Tomahawk' cruise missile is already our longest-range weapon, and it is indeed a bit wasteful to shoot a governor, especially when this governor is still within the combat radius of the 'fat electricity'."
