Red Alert Somalia

Chapter 357 Li Lan's Response

The sudden flames of war did not catch Li Lan by surprise.

Regardless of the source of intelligence, the estimate of the countdown to the American war, and the strong smell of gunpowder in the air, Li Lan has made comprehensive preparations.Dozens of military maneuvers have been quietly completed under the guise of the crack generator.

No matter how many satellites there are in the sky, it is impossible to see the real situation within the camouflage range of the crack generator.Therefore, in the coalition forces headed by the United States, what you see is the same city of gossip as before. The army has still not changed, and the intended target of attack has not changed.

The actual situation is that Li Lan has been waiting for this war for almost 30 hours.

From the end of the military mobilization of the coalition forces to the actual offensive of the coalition forces, a full thirty hours have passed.During these 30 hours, the detailed mobilization of coalition forces has been in progress, and the Red Police Corps is no exception.

When the air defense alarm in Bagua City sounded, the war had already begun five minutes ago.

All of the coalition’s first round of missile attacks came from the sea, mainly by cruise missiles launched by submarines and surface ships, while the first wave of interception was completed by the Navy.

In the direction of the Gulf of Aden and the eastern coast of Somalia, in addition to the Aegis ships that accompanied the aircraft carrier to sea, Li Lan formed three Aegis battle groups around the mainland of Somalia.Each Aegis battle group is led by two Aegis ships cruising in the Gulf of Aden and the east coast.

These three Aegis battle groups have become the first line of defense. When the Tomahawk cruise missile enters the outer defense circle of the fleet, the interception has already begun.

However, due to the large number of missiles, it is impossible to intercept them all.Missiles also began to enter the base's defensive circle, for those missiles that passed.The fleet has no obligation to continue intercepting, and then it will be all handed over to the base to complete.

The missile strikes.The air defense alarm sounded.

In the console, Li Lan just sat quietly. He had upgraded all the defensive units that could be upgraded, and built all that should be built.Now, all defensive weapons are also unlocked and handed over to the base to complete.

At this moment, Li Lan is more like playing a game, and he is still the kind that has already been done.The stage of testing the game results in actual combat.The base and defense units were built full of screens. Outside the map, countless flying missiles hit the base's defense network.

In front of him, on a suspended 3D map projection, within the reduced base defensive circle map, the performance of various defensive units can be seen, and at the edge of the map, every time.There will be large groups of missiles coming out, trying to break through the layers of interception networks.

Sitting in front of the console, Li Lan had a feeling of seeing all the world's wind and clouds, and the wind and clouds.Do not be surprised and watch the flowers bloom in front of the court.Go and stay unintentionally looking at the sky and clouds.It's just that it looks like a game-like picture, but reality is reality.If the game fails, you can start again, and there will be no second time in your life.

One missile strike.There was no pause in the face of such crazy missile strikes.When manpower is poor.The base's defensive circle also began to show some lag.

Two low-flying Tomahawk missiles exploded directly on the outskirts of Bagua City, and the rice fields that were already ripening were instantly devastated. The shock wave accompanying the explosion squeezed the surrounding large tracts of rice directly into the paddy fields.

"Assistant, what's the situation now?" The two missiles failed to hit valuable targets, but they also sounded a wake-up call for Li Lan.

With such a intensive attack, even the base cannot be fully defended.Although the high-value construction units around Bagua City are all under the disguise of crack generators, they are given the wrong location like a mirage.But it's hard to guarantee that it won't be straight.

"Please rest assured, the commander, there is no problem. We have intercepted four waves of missile attacks and are fully capable of intercepting more waves of missile attacks."

The assistant assured him that he would not really feel relieved. He started thinking about countermeasures in his heart. After a while, Li Lan's eyes lit up and said to the assistant: "Assistant, calculate the enemy's trajectory and intercept the missiles that are truly threatening. As for those missiles that hit worthless targets, there is no need to intercept them."

Li Lan's idea is very simple. Judging from the flight trajectories of these missiles, many of the missiles are heading to some open land or farmland.Under the influence of the crack generator, these places are relatively high-value targets in the eyes of the coalition forces.In that case, why not push the boat along the way, not only can the coalition forces make wrong judgments, but also allow themselves to save defensive space and focus their main firepower on missiles with higher threat levels.

Under Li Lan's instructions, the assistant naturally followed suit.Therefore, for a long time to come, a large number of missiles began to explode on the outskirts of Bagua City, and the area around Hulu Bend was ploughed by a large number of missiles. The only impact on the military port is that many windows All were broken by the impact of the explosion.

Another impact is that many reporters have captured real-life explosions. Missiles that crossed the sky exploded continuously in the distance, and the sound rang throughout the city.

——————

In the middle of the Arabian Sea, the huge fleet of the US military is cruising quietly in the night, and three behemoths of 100,000 tons dominate the sea.

This is a fleet that can dominate in any ocean. Three Nimetz-class aircraft carriers alone have a total displacement of 300,000 tons. Around the fleet 30 nautical miles away, six Los Angeles-class attack nuclear submarines are guarded. In view of the underwater safety of this fleet, they constructed the fleet's first lap of underwater defense.Cooperate with your own anti-submarine sonar in the fleet.

Of course, this is a work that requires extreme care. Submarines do not have an enemy or friend identification signal underwater. Any submarine that enters the fleet 30 nautical miles may become the target of surface anti-submarine weapons.This also naturally includes its own submarines. Therefore, to protect the fleet's underwater safety, there is a set of extremely mandatory indicators.Especially in wartime, one's own submarine is definitely not allowed to enter the sonar defense circle of surface combat ships.Otherwise, tragedies can easily brew into disasters.

This huge fleet consists of 30 surface ships. In addition to the original three aircraft carrier battle groups, the fleet also has an amphibious strike group, an amphibious assault ship and two dock landing ships, and an amphibious strike group. The two Ticonderoga-class cruisers and one Burke were originally attached.

The core of the battle that constitutes this fleet is these three aircraft carriers, but now this fleet can only watch the show behind.According to the tactics of the Supreme Staff of the Allied Forces, the aircraft carrier must ensure that the enemy does not have the ability to resist before it can enter the attack range and guard against the enemy's fleet and fighter planes.

However, as an important link in a huge command organization, this powerful fleet also undertakes the task of commanding the theater.Although the main order is issued directly from the Central Command, the transmission of orders is also a very important task.

The flagship command ship of the Fifth Fleet, LaSalle, is the core of this powerful fleet. It is responsible for the command of tactical battles and is the brain of the entire fleet.It was matched by Admiral William Gotney, commander of the US Fifth Fleet.

This US military general is full of spirits at this moment. After the Iraq War, the Fifth Fleet has once again obtained tremendous authority.Not to mention the addition of two aircraft carrier battle groups, four amphibious strike groups will join in the follow-up, and cooperate with the sixth fleet in the Mediterranean to complete the battle against Somalia.

And the fleets of France, Italy, and Japan are all commanded by him.Cooperate with various fleets to conduct joint operations.

As an ambitious general, he seems to have seen his great victory, using Somalia to build his path to the Secretary of Defense, and to open up the era of the US military belonging to William Gotney.

Ever since, he became more concerned about this war, and his faith became more firm.In his words: "This war is an opportunity God gave him. If you don’t grasp it, it’s original sin. Even God won’t forgive yourself. A bright tomorrow is waiting for me, and I only need to push it away and block the light. That door."

During the command center of the LaSalle, the admiral held a cigar in his hand, while swallowing clouds and fog, while paying attention to the situation of various combat troops on the integrated command system.

As a dedicated fleet command ship, the LaSalle performance is prominently manifested in its powerful command and control functions.According to the current command system of the US Navy, the naval command and control system consists of a fleet command center and a flagship command center.The fleet command center is a land-based command post located on the shore, and the flagship command center is a maritime command and control ship like the Lassalle, located in the combat sea area.

In the specific combat command, the fleet command center located in Bahrain sends various combat instructions, marine surveillance intelligence in the combat sea area, enemy threats, and environmental data of the combat sea area to the flagship command center, and after processing, distributes them to various command positions and Combat troops.

At the same time, the flagship command center will continue to receive reports on the status of each unit, marine surveillance intelligence in the sea area of ​​combat operations, and the progress of combat missions. After the information is summarized and processed, it will be reported to the fleet command center.It can be seen from this that in the command of maritime operations, the LaSalle is at the central link and plays an important role in linking the past.

The flagship command center on the LaSalle is a large-scale integrated communication and information processing system. It is connected to more than 70 transmitters and more than 100 receivers. It communicates with three sets of satellite communication devices. Exchange information with the outside world at a speed of 3,000 words.All the received codes can be automatically translated, and the translated texts can be delivered to the commanders through the automatic device on the ship. At the same time, the information can be stored in the computer of the integrated intelligence center.

However, in order to coordinate the command of the other fleets, Gotney did not stay at the fleet command center in Bahrain, but came to the front line of the battle and took command of the nearby command ship of the Lassalle.The Fleet Command Center in Bahrain is in the Central Command for unified command and coordination.

The missile strike against Somalia was the action order issued by the Lassalle.
