Red Alert Somalia

Chapter 693 Ruins of Danang

With the rumbling of artillery fire, Da Nang was completely plunged into a sea of ​​flames at the beginning of the joint general offensive of the Somalia and Vietnamese government forces. The huge double-carrier battle group was docked on the sea 50 kilometers east of Da Nang. Every ship in the fleet The main guns of warships are all exerting their maximum firepower.

Equivalent to the intensive rapid-fire firepower of three artillery divisions, the navy warship is displaying its unparalleled destructive power.Two unnecessary warships, two 170mm gun barrels towering at the bow of the ship, supported by advanced aiming and weapon systems, these four rapid-fire guns have become the absolute stars of the navy's main guns.

The rumble of cannon, it was not the sound of explosion, but the sound of shelling.

Two hundred nautical miles east of Vietnam, three huge aircraft carriers in Somalia are constantly taking off and landing fighter jets under the escort of submarines and three destroyers.Somalia's First Fleet, Second Fleet, and Third Fleet formed a powerful main naval attack force, with nearly 180 carrier-based fighter jets, providing strong air fire support for ground combat forces and landing forces.

The electronic warfare aircraft in the fleet also maintain electromagnetic suppression of the Vietnamese People's Army at all times, and various electronic interference methods have almost completely paralyzed Vietnam's communications.On the sea, a huge number of anti-submarine helicopters and early warning aircraft also formed a multi-layer protective net for the fleet. In addition to preventing some small submarines that survived in Vietnam from approaching, it also warned the warships of other countries around it that it is best not to approach the Somali fleet in a state of war. And warships.

Two hundred kilometers south, the combined fleet of the US, Japan, and South Korea navies launched a comprehensive reconnaissance of Somali warships under the combination of three US aircraft carriers Nimitz and two Japanese helicopter destroyers.However, between them and the Somali warships, the mainland's dual aircraft carrier battle group announced at the beginning of the battle to conduct sea trials in this area.

Three warships gathered, and the whole area was extremely lively.Of course, the real protagonist is the Somali Navy, and the rest is at best to detect intelligence and watch the excitement.

Although there are a lot of eyes and spectators around, the Somali navy has no reservations. It will fight as it should be, and various advanced weapons will take turns.The super-strong take-off frequency of the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier-based aircraft of the Third Fleet also officially released the signal to have an electromagnetic catapult.

This also made the war begin.The entire U.S. fleet was extremely shocked. Their Ford was still undergoing rapid sea trials. The electromagnetic catapult had not yet officially reached all the technical indicators. Somalia's electromagnetic ejection technology had already begun to be used in actual combat.There is also a dreadnought battleship higher than Zumwalt, which immediately gave American soldiers a sense of grape acid for the first time.

After the Somali Third Fleet entered the war, the US Department of Defense immediately proposed to Congress to increase research funding.Ask for more military spending.They used to promote the Chinese threat theory, but now it is not China, but Somalia.In the face of many naval technologies, Somalia and the United States no longer have a generational gap. This makes the US military really anxious. For the first time, it does not need to deliberately manufacture and promote it, and asks Congress for money.

Regardless of the US shock.Regardless of the fact that the world once again shocked the Somali Navy's strength, the Red Police Corps' ground offensive is also preparing nervously.

Da Nang is composed of seven counties and is the fourth largest city in Vietnam, second only to Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), Hanoi, and Haiphong. It is an important naval base in Vietnam.The current Vietnamese navy is almost annihilated, but the battle for the city has just begun.

The Vietnamese government forces are also determined to win in Da Nang, dispatching nearly 100,000 troops to assist the Somali army.Moreover, these 100,000 troops are all armored troops, which can be said to be the best.At the same time around Da Nang, the Vietnamese People’s Army also dispatched three lightly armed divisions to assist in the counter-guerrilla warfare. These lightly armed divisions are all veteran troops and have considerable jungle combat experience.

The Red Police Corps was not conservative either, with the first heavy equipment division and the second heavy equipment division as well as the Marine Corps first division as the main offensive force.The light division and special forces cooperate with the light division of the government army to conduct counter-guerrilla operations, gradually controlling all the towns and villages around Da Nang, cutting off all the passages from the south to Da Nang, and maintaining the safety of the rear of the large unit.

The two sides combined have more than 400,000 troops.It became the biggest battle since the outbreak of the Soviet War.It was also the biggest war that broke out in recent years.

Facing the urban defense organization composed of the Vietnamese People’s Army, the Red Police Corps’ high-level staff adopted a step-by-step tactic. The general offensive was launched from the north. Every time it hid in an area, it immediately used engineering equipment to build new defensive positions. Compression of Vietnam’s living space.

This kind of arduous tactic is also a helpless choice. Vietnam is not Iraq, and the Red Police Corps has not thought of capturing Ho Chi Minh City for the first time and completely eradicating the high level of Vietnam, but these rats have already dispersed, even if they do everything possible to kill Nguyen Tan Dung. There was also a second Nguyen Tan Dong who came forward.

Haeju County, Cheonggye County, Sancha County, Wuxingshan County, Yeonjo County, Geumli County, and Herong County. Da Nang, composed of these seven counties, is also divided into seven war zones, controlling traffic bridges and all Communications, there are six bridges across the three rivers in Da Nang, all of which have been blown up at this moment.

The defensive positions composed of cities and buildings were also ruthlessly destroyed. In this battlefield where almost every building had defensive personnel, the firepower of the Red Police Corps aimed at every road forward unit that could threaten traffic. Building.

With Lightning bombers and the Fortress Smasher ultra-low ground penetration bombs carried by the peacekeeping bombers as the main strike force, combined with artillery and tactical long-range fire strike forces, they carried out a high-density fire strike against Danang.

In just one day, there was almost no completed building in Da Nang. When the civilians in Da Nang were almost fleeing, Danang spent every second in the explosion.

Nearly 400 shotgun rocket launchers system, the huge launching box raised up, one salvo will have nearly 5000 237mm rocket launchers and tactical rocket missiles flying towards Da Nang, 250 kilograms of warhead, more than 100 meters radius Its lethality has caused the entire city to suffer tremendous losses.

In one day, the Rocket Strike Force fired at least four salvos, and the scattered tactical rockets accurately hit no less than thousands of times. Any target detected by reconnaissance aircraft and electronic warfare aircraft has become the target of destruction.

Even the headquarters of the Vietnamese People’s Army hiding under high-rise buildings cannot escape the attack. As long as any electronic signal is sent, the fortress crusher ground bombs will follow one after another, even if there is a small battalion-level command below. Department, will never let go.

The most direct result is that in one day, the Red Police Corps destroyed ammunition worth tens of millions of dollars, while Da Nang was completely in ruins. Perhaps only those World Cultural Heritage and civilian refugee areas that the United Nations has repeatedly explained. Destroyed.

After the twenty-four hours of intensive firepower strikes were absolutely destructive, the ground coalition composed of the Red Police Corps and the government army began to play. Soon, in the northern counties of Da Nang, it was accompanied by the sound of rumbling crawlers. , Over the ruins of the city, the Somali flag and the flag of the government began to fly.

Groups of helicopters in twos and threes passed over the city, transporting a large number of weapons and materials such as weapons, ammunition and light artillery to the front line. Light support artillery positions in the city were quickly established, and the rhythm of urban street fighting was changing. With rapid advancement, gunfire echoed over the city.

In the direction of the port, the entire building around the port was destroyed, a radius of one kilometer was razed, the original towering buildings and houses were all razed to the ground, the general offensive began, the Marines also completed the landing here, and quickly opened up a two kilometers radius Safe area.

The communications support force has begun to build a temporary field command center and coordinate loading and unloading operations in the seaport and beachhead directions.

The jungle surrounding the ring mountain range was completely occupied by special forces at the time of the shelling, and the city was also full of special forces.They do not fight with the enemy, but through communication, directly call for fire support, or kill the officers of the People's Army from a distance.

These special forces scattered in the city had already sneaked into the city a few days before the offensive in Da Nang began to detect all high-value targets. Any target that found a radio antenna would be recorded by them and became the target of the first round. .

Now they are also starting to carry out assassination missions. There is no fixed target, as long as it is a target they are interested in. The helicopter will provide them with all weapons and materials.

At the same time, the People’s Army, who wanted to guard Da Nang and drove out the Somali army, followed the advice of the NATO military advisory group after seeing Da Nang in ruins.A large number of re-mobilized troops went to Da Nang to support. Quang Nam Province, Quang Trang Province, Kon Tum Province, Gia Lai Province, Binh Dinh Province and other places assembled combat troops to increase the original 200,000 troops to 300,000 or even Four hundred thousand.

They wanted to turn Da Nang into a huge meat grinder, using their lives to fill up the defense force, and dragging down the only 200,000 troops of the Red Police Corps.At the same time, a large number of scattered guerrillas used the jungle to infiltrate the north, destroying the lines of communication and the heavy troops, and the flames of war were ignited everywhere in central Vietnam.

And in other cities in the south, nearly 600,000 People's Army troops are also gathering nervously.

Almost every minute and every second is extremely precious to both parties.Everyone knows that when time is gained, the hope of victory is even greater.
