Chapter 179: On Guerrilla Warfare
Today's Toshiba is not so famous in China, but after two years, it will become a household name.
After all, Little Japan has always been very willing to invest in advertising, and it is indeed good at marketing, plus the technology is not weak, so in normal history, throughout the eighties and nineties, their home appliances will completely occupy the high-end home appliance market in China, and once belonged to the type that is difficult to buy with money, because the highest-end kind, such as the "Toshiba Bazooka" TV, is only sold in friendship stores, and foreign exchange coupons are required.
However, if you only think that Toshiba is making home appliances, it is too much to underestimate them.
In fact, the origin of the name Toshiba is the "initial" merger of two companies, Tokyo Electric and Shiba from Shibaura Works, and both companies were founded in the second half of the 19th century, that is, in 18xx.
Therefore, Toshiba is actually very strong in the entire industrial manufacturing field, including their machine tools, which are also relatively advanced types in the world, such as now they have mastered the manufacturing process of nine-axis five-linkage CNC milling machine, which is often called five-axis linkage machine tool, representing five of the nine axes, which can be controlled by the program, elegant and perfect linkage production and processing.
The most important function of this machine tool is that it can process some parts with complex curves and complex surfaces with high precision, such as turbine blades, marine propellers, heavy-duty generator rotors, steam turbine rotors, large diesel engine crankshafts, etc.
Sitting on the train, Wang Ye's thoughts flew in his mind.
"I'll sleep for a while!"
In the end, Wang Ye felt that he was drowsy, so he said to the person next to him, and the young man next to him nodded and said:
"Well, factory director, you can sleep!"
Then Wang Ye climbed to the top bunk of the sleeper, and then began to fall asleep, now the Red Star Consortium can finally easily buy a sleeper ticket, and Wang Ye naturally will not work hard for himself, for such a long time, who wants to sit in a sleeper?
Just when Wang Ye was sleeping.
Saudi Arabia, the southern region, it is four o'clock in the morning local time, as the winter of the northern hemisphere, the sky is still dark, and for the vast majority of normal people, it has entered the deepest and deepest stage of sleep.
"Buzz!"
With a special sound, I saw six gyroplanes flying fast in the dark, these gyroplanes did not have any other lights except for the marker indicator light at the tail, and they couldn't see anything from the ground when flying in the dark!
Soon, the time came to 4:20 a.m.
At this moment, they are less than three kilometers away from their target, the oil base, from the sky, you can see, the entire oil base is like a black pressure monster crawling on the ground, a little light outlines the framework of the entire oil base, after all, there are only oil wells and oil storage equipment, there is no oil refinery and chemical plant, so there is naturally no light at night, and the whole looks black.
"Click!"
With a soft sound, the light on the tail of the gyroplane at the head of the row suddenly changed from green to red, then to white, and finally disappeared directly!
And such light signals began to be transmitted from front to back, until the last gyroplane, it did not rotate the lights, but directly turned off the lights, and from a close distance, it can be found that the rotorcraft that normally rides a double is only one person at the moment, and the entire front seat is empty!
However, under the metal tube truss wings on both sides of the gyroplane, there are dense bombs, and it is obvious that these gyroplanes have been transformed into miniature bombers, and they are about to carry out a bombing mission!
At this moment.
The gyrocopter flying in front observed the light from the air, and then flew in another direction in a roundabout way, the second plane behind followed, but the third chose a different direction, and the fourth followed, it is obvious that these six gyroplanes have entered the combat state, divided into three squads, using the common long aircraft and wingman structure of the Air Force, which looks very professional!
Then, under the cover of the noise of the oil base itself, and with even the staff on duty drowsy, they flew over the oil base with such a swagger, and then began to drop bombs!
"Boom!"
In the next second, there was a violent explosion on the oil depot, but at this moment, the entire oil base still did not react!
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”
Then, after several flashes of fire, the top of the entire oil depot seemed to finally be overwhelmed and blew out a hole, and then the explosion ignited the ejected petroleum liquid and petroleum gas!
"Boom!"
At that moment, the entire oil depot turned into a huge torch, which directly lit up the sky, and the shadows of those miniature bombers flashed, and as the mushroom flames disappeared, they disappeared into the darkness again.
"Doot toot!"
In an instant, the alarm system of the entire oil base was sounded, and the people on duty saw the explosion of the oil depot, and their legs were directly weak, and those who were woken up were still at a loss, and the earth-shaking explosion sound came from outside again!
"Boom!"
Another oil depot, exploded again!
At this moment, there was a sound of screaming, cursing and screaming throughout the base, and some of the security personnel on duty were already preparing to fight back, but at this moment they found the most important problem, they didn't know where the target was!
"Damn! Take up arms! Take up arms! ”
"Watchtower reports news! Watchtower reports the news! In which direction is the enemy? Fast! ”
"Report! Report! We did not see the enemy, nor did we see the trajectory of the rocket's flight, repeat! No enemy in sight! ”
"Raised by a bitch, if there were no enemies, would the oil depot explode on its own?"
"Keep my eyes open to find out, where the hell is!"
In the command headquarters, the commander holding the phone kept roaring, only to see that his forehead was bruised, and he looked crazy and angry, and the reason why he was so angry was actually very simple.
In recent times, armed groups have been attacking oil wells, especially in the border areas, and in such cases, a large number of security personnel have been dispatched to various oil bases near the border, especially in the vicinity of the border, after negotiations and deployments from the royal family and Aramco and other high-level officials, in order to prevent sneak attacks from armed groups.
It just so happens that this oil base is one of the bases that have obtained security personnel, but because they are far away from the border, the overall pressure is not great, after all, there are not many armed groups circulating in the country, and it is difficult to hide.
But at this moment, they were stunned!
Because in their mindset, the attackers must be armed groups, and their main means of attack is gas canisters, and even steel tube rockets are not too much, because the price is a little more expensive, so they will generally launch attacks about a kilometer away from the oil base, in fact, it is still easy to find.
"There are no enemies! No attackers were found! ”
"There are no rockets in the sky either"
At this moment, the lookout who suddenly reported the news was stunned for a moment, and the next second he reacted, and shouted at the same time:
"Heavenly! The enemy is in the sky, it's a gyroplane! ”
"They're bombing the oil depot with gyroplanes, hurry, hurry! Attack the heavens! The goal is in the sky! ”
In an instant, the voice of the lookout was transmitted to all parts of the entire oil base through the radio waves, and then everyone faintly saw that there seemed to be a shadow flashing in the sky in the shadowy firelight, and it was obvious that this was the sneak attacker!
"Attack! Attack the sky! ”
"Knock them down! These bitches raised it! ”
With the roar of the commander, the security personnel over there hesitated for a moment, and still opened fire into the sky, but it was obvious that several magazines were gone, and there was no use at all!
The reason is very simple, not to mention that ordinary rifles can't shoot such high flying objects, even if they can shoot, they need to aim, but they can't see anything in the dark at night, how to aim? How to shoot? How to hit the target?
In the era when there were no air defense radars and air defense missiles, the air defense forces mainly relied on anti-aircraft guns, and with the anti-aircraft guns, there must be a very special unit, called the searchlight troops, only the searchlights on the ground turned on, illuminated the sky and locked the target, and the anti-aircraft guns on the ground could aim at the target more accurately.
Nowadays, these security guards are shooting at will, although it is useless, but at least they finish the bullets, which is more dedicated.
The before and after time is less than five minutes.
The six gyroplanes disappeared over the oil base, and even the personnel on the ground could not accurately judge when they left, and for those who were inked, they were not even dressed neatly for a few minutes!
"Damn! Damn it! Damn it! ”
"Anti-aircraft guns! We need anti-aircraft guns! We need anti-aircraft missiles! ”
In the end, only the roar of the commander-in-chief remained, as well as the sound of sirens and the sound of various fire-fighting equipment, and at the same time, the entire oil base was also hit hard, three oil depots were burned, and the flames were blazing!
Soon, the news was reported to Riyadh.
Riyadh, a women's and children's almshouse in the war, today Sattler came here to visit and inspect the work, and with the recent increase in oil well attacks in Saudi Arabia, the number of casualties has been rising, so the work of this almshouse has gradually begun to get busy.
"How's your work going? Seems busy? ”
"But you seem to have adapted to the job, and you feel like you're doing a good job and you're in good order."
In the midst of all kinds of sobbing and noise, Sattaler looked at Catherine not far away and asked, Catherine nodded and said:
"That's right, it's really busy, but we're actually better here than the staff who go out."
"There have been so many attacks lately, people have lost their fathers, some people have lost their husbands, some people have lost everything, and they need our help, both materially and mentally"
The initial attack was mainly aimed at various oil wells and oil fields, but with the fierce struggle between the two sides, the situation has now expanded, even civilians are not spared, many towns, villages and even cities have also been hit by gas canisters and rockets, causing a large number of casualties, the number of displaced people has begun to increase, and the number of people who have lost their loved ones is increasing.
Hearing this, Sattler originally wanted to make fun of the transformation of the lady in front of him, but in the end, the suppressed mood and the flame of anger made him lose interest in speaking, so he just sighed and nodded and said:
"Well done, keep it up!"
"Our situation in the future will become more and more severe."
Catherine nodded in agreement with Satler's statement, after all, she was originally engaged in intelligence work, and she still has a certain judgment on the overall situation, so it is not difficult to deduce the next development.
"Your Royal Highness, we want to get some female workers."
"At the moment, we have a serious shortage of female workers, and for boys it is natural to match male staff, but for women and girls, it is necessary for female staff to do the work."
"Otherwise, our work progress and efficiency will be greatly slowed down."
After a brief pause, Catherine said, and Sattaler nodded slightly in understanding, and then asked rhetorically:
"How do you want to get it?"
"I sent my maids? Absolutely, no problem. ”
Catherine was silent for two seconds about Satler's statement, and then said very firmly:
"If you can do that, that's great."
"But I hope that we can still recruit some freelance female staff and let them participate in the work, after all, helping my own compatriots who are suffering is something to encourage and commend in my opinion."
Hearing Catherine say this, Sartler fell silent, and finally smiled and said:
"Yes, but I don't guarantee that you'll be able to recruit people."
"After all, although we allow women to come out and work, there are not many people who are actually willing and able to come out."
"However, I also feel that this is a good thing, so let's do it!"
As soon as Sartler's words fell, accompanied by a rush of footsteps, the blue curtain next to her was lifted, and Elizabeth hurriedly walked in, she looked very tired, her hair was tied up very neatly, and she said in a hoarse voice:
"Sister, someone from CBB Radio and Television in the UK has come to interview."
Through the curtain raised, you can see that in the hall outside, there are many women and children resting, crying from time to time, medical staff are asking, some staff are distributing food, and an indescribable atmosphere of sadness is permeating.
"Okay! I see, please come over! ”
With Catherine's voice, Sattler nodded and was about to say something, when the curtain next to him was lifted again, and a staff member walked in and whispered something in his ear, and in an instant Sartler's face became more and more ugly.
"In that case, then I'll take my leave."
Sartler nodded and said, and then walked away quickly, and a moment later, the interview with the TV station took place directly in the hall, Catherine faced the camera, her eyes were slightly red, and her voice trembled and said:
"We call for peace and oppose conflict and war"
"We need more people, especially women, and everyone is welcome to join us in our work"
At the same time, Sattler returned to his Cadillac bulletproof sedan, and then slammed his fist into the seat next to him, and roared through gritted teeth:
"Damn it! One night, five attacks? ”
"They actually learned to bomb, they learned to engage in guerrilla warfare?"
Last night's attack was not just one oil base, but five bases were attacked by airstrikes, all in the same way, that is, gyroplanes bombed and then ran away.
The key problem is that it was impossible to effectively counterattack at that time, so the military finally made a sharp move and sent fighter jets to support, but in the end it was not found where the gyrocopter went, which was equivalent to running in vain!
"Is it possible to find a way to deploy anti-aircraft weapons? What did Prince Doult say? ”
Finally, Sattler said to the staff next to him, who hesitated and said:
"It can be arranged, but the difficulty is not small, on the one hand, our troops are not manpowered, and the air defense forces cannot spread out to so many oil bases, on the other hand, there is a problem of the number of weapons, our air defense missiles are not many, and there are not enough anti-aircraft guns."
At that moment, Sartler suddenly felt a little hopeless.
