Red Alert Somalia

Chapter 299

The actions of the First Marine Corps battalion against the Somali Youth Army were not coordinated with the operations of the heavy equipment division. The offensive targets of the two units were completely different.

At present, the Red Police Corps has two complete Marine Corps infantry battalion-level combat units, each with 1,200 pure combat personnel in the Marine Corps infantry battalion.

This time, the first battalion of the Marine Corps was dispatched to carry out an encirclement and suppression operation against the Youth Army. Under the rapid and mobile deployment of helicopters and armored vehicles, they carried out a surprise attack on the main activity areas of the Youth Army.With the Navy’s Aegis fleet as the first round of attack firepower, the second round of naval air strikes, coupled with the third round of long-range rocket artillery attacks, and finally the main force of the infantry battalion enters the theater, with multifunctional infantry fighting vehicles, against the youth army The main gathering activity area for fixed-point cleaning.

The first round of warship missile strikes aimed directly at the six training bases of the Youth Army, attacking the opponent's underground weapons arsenal, and conducting an indiscriminate attack on the main activity area.

Faced with the sudden attack, thousands of armed men in the Youth Army were caught in the smoke of war without preparation.And their leader was simply killed by the special forces, and most of the officers in the youth army could not escape bad luck.The v-1xh supersonic cruise missile launched by the Aegis battle group, under the instructions of the spy, carried out precise strikes on these heads.Even if you stay ten meters underground, you cannot escape the doom of missile strikes.

This sudden war was given to Li Lan by the Youth Army. If it weren't for their reckless actions, Li Lan still wanted to wait for them to settle accounts after they swept all the forces.The advancement of the war is a result of their own planting.

The fleet blocked the sea, and the Marine Corps encircled and suppressed them step by step. Li Lan would never let go of any member of the Youth Army, and he did not plan to let go of those potential members.Anyone who has a relationship with the Youth Army is the target of attack.

Ning to kill the wrong way may be a little bloody, but in such a land, the butcher knife that is occasionally raised is the best way to avoid future troubles.

Moreover, the suppression of the youth army this time is also a good means of propaganda.The storm of terrorist attacks in the United States is still brewing, and the whole world has set off a new storm in the name of anti-terrorism.As a breeding ground for terrorism by the United States-Somalia, the Youth Army is also on the list of major US strikes.Li Lan's hands on the youth army are also a good way to establish a positive image of himself.

After all, the Somali Youth Army has become an extreme terrorist organization under the constant propaganda of the United States.The United States is now once again holding high the fight against terrorism, and the rhythm of whoever catches it must be played.And Li Lan used this matter to make the United States find no excuse for a while.Let the United States completely die to deal with itself in the name of a terrorist organization.

Even if the Somali Youth Army is a patriotic organization and has not done anything harmful to the world, Li Lan will choose to destroy it when necessary.Use practical actions to mobilize international public opinion and build up your own good side.

To put it bluntly, whether the Somali Youth Army is good or bad is not the key. The key is the benefits that can be brought about by eliminating him.

On the soil of Somalia, the gunpowder still continued. The eradication of the youth army lasted for three days. The Marine Corps paid the price of thirty-six men to finally complete all the tasks set.The area where the youth army often operates was completely cleared by the war.The entire organization, nearly five thousand people, were all annihilated, and thousands of diehards were buried with them.

In the southern battlefield, the Army Aviation Regiment and the heavy-loaded division have attacked the Belandevan line, Ethiopia is on the right side, and the youth army on the left has been annihilated.A logistics supply line was also established, and a large amount of munitions and materials were transported to Belandevin.The total attack on Mogadishu from the distance has also entered the countdown.

In these three days, Li Lan has been paying attention to the international situation and the domestic battlefield. There are not many things worthy of his attention. He has asked the armed mvc mercenary company to deal with the group of mercenaries.And Mogadishu will soon belong to him.

Therefore, compared with the changes in the international situation, the problems in Somalia seem a little trivial.

Three days have passed since the last collision between the two warships of the United States and Somalia. The U.S. military has remained silent about this, and Li Lan did not want to promptly stab it out.However, some media have obtained a few words of information. In the past three days, the international media has been rumored that the US Navy and the Somali Navy encountered in the Gulf of Aden, and the confrontation between fighter planes and warships resulted in the Somali warship. The incident that hit a U.S. warship.

Moreover, these media still don’t know where they captured the three warships being towed back to the United States.

However, the U.S. military has remained silent, and Li Lan did not want to get things out of the way, which also led to the news that still bears the name of speculation.However, despite the speculation, many people choose to believe it.After all, on that day, a large number of US military planes converged on the edge of Somalia's airspace, and the three warships going to the area could not hide the eyes of the world.Especially in the Gulf of Aden, there are so many international escort warships.

But as to why the hulls of the three U.S. Navy warships were seriously damaged, and how this happened, the world has aroused speculation.According to the media, the Somali Freedom Alliance naval ship voluntarily crashed into a U.S. warship. From the perspective of the world, this report is not very credible.After all, do Somalis have such guts?Especially Li Lan, as a Chinese, does he have such courage?According to the damaged photos of the US warship, it is obviously the scene of the collision, not the scars of the active collision.And this kind of thing is not a habit of the US military.If you have the idea of ​​impact, you might as well directly attack with missiles or naval guns, and follow it.

However, no matter how the world guesses, it is not important to the US military and Li Lan.

At this time, Li Lan was slowly reviewing some specific reports on recent US activities.This information mainly comes from the Internet and news media, and through various means, layers of screening, to obtain information of interest.

Since the Liberty Alliance began to send troops to Somaliland and Puntland, the United States has launched a variety of diplomatic methods. In the name of counter-terrorism, the United States has visited other countries in many heavyweight missions.In particular, the US military allies have been given priority attention by the United States. From the Secretary of Defense to the Secretary of State, as well as a large number of military personnel, they frequently appear in front of the media and the public.

The U.S. military is unwilling to be lonely and has conducted military exercises with many allies in the Indian Ocean, the Middle East, Europe and other places.The Pacific Rim joint military exercise originally planned to be launched this year was postponed for one year.Two Ohio-class nuclear-powered missile submarines were stationed in Guam, and the plan was terminated, and they were deployed to the U.S. Fifth Fleet to strengthen the Middle East Navy.

The two amphibious warfare fleets cruising in the Atlantic and Pacific are also temporarily transferred from the Atlantic Fleet and Pacific Fleet to the Central Command, temporarily entering the Central Theater, and are under the unified command of the US Central Theater Command.

The Sixth Fleet and the Fifth Fleet carried out a cross-sea area joint ground strike exercise in the Indian Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. The two fleets were at different locations to synchronize their fighters and missiles against the same target. Coordinated combat tacit understanding.

The U.S. Air Force did not remain silent. Two B-2 stealth strategic bombers conducted an intercontinental long-range strike training, and the B-52 was strong and strong, and also conducted long-range intercontinental flight training.

Military exercises with inherent allies are only part of the means. The United States is also trying to attract potential allies, such as India, the US Navy and Congress, and even plans to package the decommissioned conventionally powered aircraft carriers to India.

The various actions of the United States sent very strong signals, and Li Lan at the center of the storm also felt the pressure.Exercises have always been one sentence that is not aimed at any target, but that exercise is not very targeted.

This time, the United States specifically cancelled most of its military exercises in Asia and strengthened its military exercises in the Indian Ocean, the Mediterranean, and the Middle East. Its main purpose was to put pressure on Li Lan.

There is nothing wrong with understanding the attitude of the United States, but it is Li Lan's business whether to obey the United States.As a result, nature is not self-evident.If Li Lan intends to obey the United States, then he will not use swordsmen and dominate Somalia.

He knows very well that his own existence has already broken the US global military strategy. As long as he and the US are not on the same front, they will inevitably face each other.This kind of relationship is either a friend or an enemy.There is absolutely no neutrality. The United States is not willing, and Li Lan is not willing.

At present, even though Li Lan is at an absolute disadvantage compared to the US military posture, he also has things that make the United States a rat-in-law.Once a war breaks out, whether it is against Li Lan or the United States, it will inevitably be a situation where both sides suffer.

Therefore, no matter what the United States does, Li Lan's ideas are still very firm.Others are five-year plans, ten-year plans, and fifteen-year strategies.Li Lan is a biennial period. Up to now, the four-year plan has been almost completed, and the six-year strategy is also progressing smoothly.

If the outbreak of war can be avoided and the determination of the United States to use force against him can be broken, he will try his best in this regard.But if all the plans and efforts failed, then he was also ready for the war.

This six-year strategy has been perfected since Li Lan first formulated the strategic plan.And he needs to formulate a new strategy for the next six years based on whether the war breaks out.Twelve years is the longest time he gave himself and the time he gave the world.

"Sir, the Japanese are here." After a knock on the door, Farah walked in.

"Just let the Ministry of Foreign Affairs entertain you!" Li Lan said without looking up.

"But these Japanese directly asked to see you!" Farah said.

The corner of Li Lan's mouth curled up, defending the file in his hand, and said: "I understand, you can arrange the time."
