Red Alert Somalia

Chapter 153

Two days later, the battle on the ground was all over.

The five armored brigades, although they are very weak armored units, do not hinder the fact that the largest ground battle in a decade has been achieved. For the Somalis, this is a great victory.Because they repelled the aggressor-Ethiopians, this is the first time in many years.

The hearts of the civilians are very discerning. No matter how Puntland and Somaliland are propagated in the country, this is a great victory for all Somalis who still have the concept of Somalia in their hearts.Among Somalis, more than 95 are traditional Somali (Kuchit). There are more than 17 million Somali people in the world. Counting refugee camps in neighboring countries, nearly 10 million are in Somalia. Territory.Although there are countless conflicts between tribes, the same clan is a fact.

In their minds, Somalia is their country. The so-called Somaliland and Puntland are only controlled by the two largest tribes. Apart from squeezing other tribes, there is nothing worth remembering.

In Li Lan's territory, there is an iron general rule, that is equality, because among the people he takes in, there are hundreds of tribes, although many are small tribes, the division is still obvious.Li Lan followed their habit and assigned people of the same tribe together, and they were required to abide by all the laws of the territory.

This victory, no matter which tribe, no matter which surname, is the same reaction, that is cheering.Because they have not forgotten that outside the tribe, they are also Somali, pure Somali descent, a people recognized in the world.Surnames and tribes only indicate their ancestors and customs, while the Somali tribe is their source, and they all speak Somali.

This is very similar to the Han people, who are all Han people, but with the difference in surname and dialect.

And this victory means the same to all Somalis.In the past two decades, Ethiopia has sent troops to Somalia many times. Air strikes are also common. How many innocent people have died under Ethiopians. Although there are more than five million Somalis in Ethiopia, this does not prevent the Somalis from fighting. The helpless humiliation of Ethiopia.No one would be willing to accept it. How many people hate their helplessness. This time, everyone is proud of it, and countless people feel proud for the first time in their lives.

However, as the protagonist of this battle, Li Lan is not too happy at this moment, because the countdown to the start of the high-level mission has ended since yesterday, and it is now the second day of the mission.

The ground forces of the Ethiopian, Somaliland, and Puntland coalition forces were all wiped out and more than 50,000 captured.It also occupied Erigab and a large area of ​​Somaliland, covering tens of thousands of square kilometers, extending the base’s defense line to the west for more than 100 kilometers, and the buffer zone was as high as 160 kilometers. Pera is only a hundred kilometers away.

So far, Li Lan already owns 70,000 square kilometers of land. In it, there is a second largest city in Somalia and an important economic city in Somalia-Bosaso, as well as a small city of Kalin, and Eriga Bo is a medium-sized city.In this area, there are hundreds of large and small towns and thousands of inhabited villages, with a total population of more than two million.

Li Lan did not take this opportunity to order the troops to continue to expand the occupied area, but ordered all the troops to guard, rest and reorganize, and temporarily not to control the tribal armed or individual forces in the occupied area.

What he cares most about is the task of high-level privilege escalation.This mission is already in progress. In these two days, he will not allow any accidents. The fd-2000 missile battalion is already on high alert. Under the camouflage nets, eight missile launch vehicles have erected their swords. Thirty-two long-range air defense missiles are also in a state of launching at any time.The missile battalion is equipped with air defense radar and phased array radar, and there is no one-second rest time.The data link connection with the base vehicle is also in smooth operation at all times.

These are two very critical days. The progress of the base's next development will all depend on the next thirty hours.

For Li Lan, these thirty-odd hours are like years, every minute and every second seems to have passed a century.Once you get out of the base, whether you are sleeping or otherwise, you must hold your phone tightly in your hand. Once something happens, your assistant will notify him immediately.

The existence of high-level privilege escalation missions has shown him that the enemy's air strikes will definitely come within these two days. It is just a difference between sooner or later.The existence of the Ethiopian Su-27 is what makes Li Lan so nervous.

Although the weapons equipped by the Ethiopian Air Force fighters are still very backward, the missiles of the United States and NATO are not compatible with the Su-27, but it is difficult to guarantee that the United States and NATO will not obtain some advanced Russian styles that can be mounted on the Su-27. Missiles, Li Lan is very scrupulous about this.

Had it not been for the existence of the FD-2000 missile battalion, he could now basically declare that the mission had failed. The anti-aircraft gun had an attack range of up to 8,000 meters, and it could not intercept the Su-27 or effectively intercept the missile.

In some missile battalions, the alert range of the base vehicle has been upgraded to a level. With the air defense radar and phased array radar of the fd-2000 missile battalion, with the data link connected, the base’s current alert range has reached 700 Kilometers.This is equivalent to that the Ethiopian fighters are within the alert range of the base vehicle before they go abroad.Of course, this is only for the air. If the Ethiopian Air Force comes to fly at a low altitude, the distance will be reduced a lot.

Perhaps it was because Li Lan severely smashed Ethiopia's skin, and the Ethiopian air force did not let Li Lan wait too long.

Just at around 8 pm the next day after the high-level mission officially started, Li Lan, who had just had a meal and was stepping into the console, received a warning from his assistant.

"Warning, warning, the enemy plane is found, there is still 400 kilometers away from the base, the coordinates

, The number is fifteen, the altitude is nine thousand, and the speed is 1050 kilometers per hour."

"Warning, warning..."

...

The assistant's series of warnings made Li Lan feel refreshed, and said: It's finally here.

"Immediately order the missile battalion and turn on the phased array radar. I want them to come back and forth." Li Lan immediately ordered.

The air defense radar of the fd-2000 missile battalion, similar to the famous Ukrainian armored radar, is a passive receiving radar.This is obviously not the original version of China's normal foreign trade version, but is specially prepared for Li Lan.

The characteristic of this kind of radar is that it does not actively emit radar waves, but relies on passively receiving electromagnetic and various wireless signals and radar signals from the target. It is an extremely advanced radar, even if it is a stealth fighter, in front of such a radar, it is invisible. Performance will be greatly reduced.

In order to prevent his hole cards from being exposed, Li Lan has never turned on the phased array radar, and the alert radar will not actively transmit signals, nor will it be intercepted by someone who is interested.

Because if Li Lan turns on the phased array radar, he will not be able to hide the UAVs and reconnaissance planes of the U.S. military. Then the beams of the radar will be acquired by the U.S. military, and the U.S. military will know the existence of the phased array radar.At that time, the Ethiopian side will be prepared, and the surprise Li Lan expected will not exist.

Especially in the Gulf of Aden, the radars of each national fleet are basically in a silent state, and each country wants to learn more about the status of each country's warship radar scanning and improve the database.Therefore, in general, ordinary radars are turned on, and radars such as phased arrays are generally turned off.In the Gulf of Aden, phased array radar is not available anyway.Of course, except for necessary exercises.

Therefore, Li Lan is naturally unable to expose herself.And when the phased array radar of the fd-2000 missile battalion was turned on, the missile launch vehicle was ready for all launches. As long as the opponent is within range, it will resolutely strike down.

Previously on the battlefield in Somaliland, the missile battalion’s air defense radar had also been accurately spotting Ethiopian Air Force fighters, but Li Lan did not want to kill these fighters at that time. What he waited for was when they came to air raid the base to avoid what would happen. variable.

"Report to the commander that all missiles have entered the state of dispatch." It took nearly ten minutes for the phased array radar to turn on until the missiles were all ready, and then they reported to Li Lan.

"Very well, when the enemy gets close, give me a good performance. Starting out, we must play our aura."

After giving the instructions, Li Lan's mood gradually calmed down, and the whole person was determined.These days, he has drafted two development drafts. It is good that he can complete the high-level tasks. If he can't complete them, then he can only accept the arrangements of fate.

It is best to be able to complete the task. If he can't complete the authority task, he has the intermediate authority for three years.And he also prepared a development plan with intermediate authority.

In the past three years, first of all, the territory was no longer expanding, and all development was limited to the current occupied area.And in the past three years, the arms trade must be completely expanded, and no more fuss.Rhino tanks and multifunctional infantry fighting vehicles will be his main foreign trade products, international practice, weakened monkey version.

Using the proceeds from the arms trade to form a basic air force, there is no shortage of pilots, airports can be constructed manually, and aircraft can be purchased from China or Russia.He does not require high performance, as long as he can have enough advantages in the surrounding area, Li Lan has already planned to give priority to buying Xiaolong and the J-10 for foreign trade.The number does not need to be too much, a dozen or twenty is enough.

Of course, this was only a plan after the mission failed, and this plan is not without a target, after all, he needs to prepare with both hands.
