Red Alert Somalia

Spring passes and autumn comes year after year. It has been six years since the last time the President of the United States visited Bagua City.

Today is the fifth anniversary of the founding of the Federation of Somalia.

Five years ago, Li Lan was elected president of the Somali Federation with an incredible number of votes in the world. The East African Community, a temporary organization, formally formed a federal state.The eight presidents of the original community participated in the presidential election when the federation was established.

After half a month's vote count, the ballot results will be announced under the supervision of a UN notary.Among the 120 million votes of citizens of the Somali Federation, Li Lan was undoubtedly elected the first president of the Somali Federation with 110 million votes.

With such a high number of votes, beyond all expectations, Li Lan's approval rating exceeds that of any president in the world.Moreover, the Federal Constitution of Somalia stipulates that the president will serve for five years and can serve continuously until the age of 72.If Li Lan maintains his support rate for the long term, he can continue to serve as the president of the Somali Federation for the eighth term.

Five years have passed. The second presidential election of the Somali Federation also ended a few days ago. Li Lan deservedly won the election again and was re-elected as president with 98% of the votes.

With a support rate of 98%, Li Lan once again set a higher record. In six years, he appeared on the cover of Time Magazine twice. Except for the oppositional relationship and personal emotions, Li Lan's actions have been greatly affirmed by the world. .

In just six years, he raised a country with a per capita GDP of only six to seven thousand dollars to 20,000 per capita.When the federation was established, revenue in the first fiscal year was 500 billion U.S. dollars, and five years have passed.Fiscal year revenue growth increases every year, and the average increase is as high as 40%.It has become the world's fourth largest economy after Japan, and continues to narrow the economic gap with Japan.

And economic success.It is just part of Li Lan's achievements. For six years, Somalia has not participated in any regional military conflicts. After the Houthi officially won the Yemeni regime, Somalia never carried out any foreign military operations.

But no one dared to ignore Somalia's powerful national defense force. Li Lan said at the beginning that one aircraft carrier a year, but now, this sentence has not broken his promise.

When the Somali Federation was formally established.The fifth aircraft carrier in Somalia, the aircraft carrier Bagua City named after the capital Bagua City, was officially launched.The Carlin aircraft carrier of the First Fleet was converted into a training aircraft carrier, and the Bagua City replaced the Carlin as the core main ship of the First Fleet.

In the second year of the Federation, the super aircraft carrier named Mogadishu was launched and became the ace symbol of the Second Fleet of the Somali Navy, while the former USS Burao of the Second Fleet was used for training, just like the Carlin. Ship.

The third year of the Federation.With the attention of the world, on the same day, the super aircraft carrier named Nairobi was launched, and the Somali Fifth Fleet was formed.same year.Li Lan officially announced that the Carlin will be presented to Pakistan at the end of the year.The two countries officially completed the aircraft carrier handover ceremony.

In the fourth year, the fourth aircraft carrier named after the former capital city of Cuba in South Sudan was launched as scheduled.Also established at the same time is the Somali Sixth Fleet.

This year, following the election of the Federal President of Somalia.The biggest topic left to people is, is there any aircraft carrier in Somalia?

It already has six aircraft carrier battle groups and an 80,000-ton training aircraft carrier. Somalia's conventional military power, especially the navy, seems to have become the world's second largest.

As for the air force, although it is not as attractive as the navy, the glory of the air force is not weaker than that of the navy.

Somalia has three fifth-generation fighters, becoming the world's first fifth-generation fighter with three aircraft types. This is a great honor in itself.

With the development of time, the Somali Air Force and the Navy have made considerable progress. A large number of active fourth-generation fighters have been retired and sold one after another, and more and more fifth-generation fighters have replaced the main equipment of the Somali Air Force.

In six years, the Somali Air Force has more than 2,000 fighters, and the fifth-generation fighters successfully accounted for more than 50%.

There are more than 1,000 other types of aircraft, of which transport aircraft and bombers have the largest number, plus some early warning aircraft, tankers, electronic warfare aircraft, and reconnaissance crews to form a huge air force system.

UAVs are a relatively independent part of the Air Force. Although the number of UAVs is not as large as the number of manned aircraft, the scale is no less than that of the air forces of many developed countries.

However, many of these huge air forces have been deliberately hidden by Li Lan. Although the outside world knows that the size of the Somali air force is gradually expanding, they have not really understood the specific figures.Everyone's more curiosity is on the new concept weapons that appear at every national defense exhibition in Somalia, there will be one or two curious exhibits every year.

As an army of the Red Police Corps on the same scale as the Navy, the achievements of these years of development have also attracted attention.The Somali Army has always been talked about. Although it does not have the aura of honor of the Air Navy, it is the most fierce ground combat force in the eyes of its opponents.

During the Somali War, no one was captured, which made the Somali Army's supreme glory, and the undaunted spirit became the most dazzling banner of this army.After the wars, an invincible army was successfully created.

In six years, although this army unit did not once again use its fists to step onto the world stage, its strength is growing rapidly.

Five years ago, Li Lan formally established the military region system of the Somali Federation. The 4 million square kilometers of the entire Federation was divided into five military regions, following the original military region name of Somalia.

Up to now, the construction of the five military regions is still continuing, but the scale has taken shape.In six years, 2190 days and nights, the size of the Red Police Army has reached 350,000 people. It has five heavily loaded divisions, five lightly loaded divisions, two air assault divisions, two paratrooper divisions, and twelve An independent brigade-level force.

Including all the logistics units, the army is directly under the air force, and the entire Somali Federal Guard has an army size of more than 400,000 people.The size of the garrison is three times that of the active force. The army of a single garrison has reached 1.2 million, and it takes six years.According to the Military Service Law of the Somali Federation, the first and second year reserve soldiers.Retirement has been completed by the end of this year.The third stage of reserve soldiers will also be retired.

The current Somali Federation has no shortage of troops. Somalia, which has become the world's fourth largest economy, has also become the youngest country in the world.First of all, in six years, the population has grown tremendously due to hunger and disease no longer threatening federal citizens. Coupled with a large number of Chinese immigrants, the annual population growth rate has exceeded 8%.

And because of the proliferation of Africans, many teenagers in Somalia have grown up smoothly, and the newly-added babies rarely die.The low number of elderly people also makes the average age of the entire country low.The proportion of youth in the country is high.Although this will bring great employment problems, it also brings a very sufficient source of troops.

With good economic development, sufficient troops, and stable industries, the growth of the Somali Federation is natural.

Faced with the rapid development of Somalia, the successful economic transformation of the United States has also stepped up the pace of development, further promoted domestic production and manufacturing, and the economy has shown obvious improvement.

but.The American people have not enjoyed much of the actual benefits brought by the relief of economic pressure, because the ratio of US fiscal revenue to GDP has increased from 30% to 44% in the past six years.The same as France and Germany.

The ratio of fiscal revenue to GDP in countries around the world is generally around 20?If it's less than 20%, it's a petty gift.A policy of rest with the people and hiding wealth in the people.If it is higher than 30%, it is a policy that the country wants to concentrate on doing big things.The ratio is also the most reasonable.Once it exceeds 40%, it means that the country needs too much money.

It's like the Federation of Somalia.Last year's gdp reached more than seven trillion US dollars, and fiscal revenue just reached a little over two trillion.Has been maintained at around 25%.

The 25% value is also the taxation method adopted by the most countries. Of course, the more developed the country, the higher this number will be, but there are some exceptions.But in European countries, there is almost no less than 30%.

France and Germany have remained at around 44% for a long time. In six years, the United States has increased from 30% to 44% in order to have enough military spending.

Because since six years ago, the United States has resumed the production line of f-22 Raptor fighter jets and purchased a large number of f-35s. The navy is also developing rapidly. In order to prevent Somalia from going down, almost all of them are developing vigorously.With the accelerated installation of new equipment, the upgrading and transformation of old equipment, and the rapid daily increase in weapon inventory, the United States is preparing for the next war resolutely.

The NATO countries have also increased their military spending under the lead of the United States.

The world that has been calm for six years is still undercurrents, and both sides seem to have maintained a tacit understanding, giving the outside world a feeling that the possibility of war has been zero.

However, in this calm, accompanied by the rapid increase in military expenditures of various countries year by year, Somalia's increasingly powerful military has stimulated the nerves of too many people. In this backward world, even if you have never thought of participating in and winning the war , But self-protection is a normal idea.

As for NATO countries, the United States has fulfilled its commitments, gradually liberalizing its control over the European Union, and presenting the threat of Somalia to Europe intuitively. With the exception of some countries, most NATO countries have actively developed their military and have This shifted the domestic social conflicts caused by the economic crisis.

Somalia is still surrounded by enemies, but this kind of confrontation has turned into a silent confrontation. The best proof is that you can often see on the news which country’s warships are launched again. Or which country has increased its military expenditures. Such news reports have never stopped in six years.

It's just that no one has officially counted these news figures, or someone who is interested in making statistics, they just haven't announced it.

"It's been six years, and the original plan has finally been completed." Sitting in the console, Li Lan couldn't help but sigh while looking at the six-year development report.

Looking up at the amount of funds on the display in front of him, the series of numbers made his face a little more proud.

In the past six years, everything has been developed according to plan. The ore refining plants are spread across the entire federation, and the fully automated collection and recycling have brought him more than 80 million capital income every day. Last year alone, the base capital income exceeded 30 billion. .This is a huge number, all used to build aircraft carrier battle groups.Ten super aircraft carrier battle groups can be created.

With such a huge financial support, plus the double construction list and the completion of industrial factories and replication factories.Li Lan also experienced the blowout development of the base. Even if this speed is far from the limit of the base, it is already an unprecedented high efficiency.

In addition to this rapid development, the base funds also have a surplus of 10 to 20 million every day, and it has accumulated nearly 30 billion.This value is also about to reach the amount of Li Lan as a reserve strategic fund.

However, the plan for the next stage is to build a large number of facilities such as barracks and tank factories to continue to accelerate production efficiency. The current production efficiency is only one-eighth of the original time, far from reaching one-tenth of the planned.Therefore, there is still very intense construction work in the next stage.

"Commander, you still have a meeting of the Ministry of Defense at eight o'clock in the morning. All the people participating in the meeting have arrived. There are still ten minutes before eight o'clock."

The assistant's voice interrupted Li Lan's thoughts, and the latter just nodded, got up to tidy up his clothes, and walked out of the console.

Take the elevator to the second floor of the base and walk through the passage connecting the Ministry of National Defense building. Li Lan quickly walked into the conference center on the second floor of the Ministry of National Defense.

"stand up."

When his figure appeared in the conference center.Under Tan Ya's trumpet, everyone got up.

Walking to the main position, Li Lan pressed his hands and motioned for everyone to sit down.He opened his mouth and said: "The meeting is now starting. There is only one main topic of the meeting today, how to win a country with the top ten military strength in the world in ten days."

Li Lan's words.In an instant, everyone in the room was talking, Ling Liang and Tan Ya next to them had their eyes paired.All the doubts were seen in the eyes of the other party, obviously.Neither of them was mentally prepared for the sudden topic of Li Lan.

At the highest meeting of the Ministry of National Defense, Li Lan could not be joking with them, and it would definitely not be a mere discussion. There must be deep meaning in it.

"Commander, according to the military rankings, there are nine countries within our consideration. Among them, the United States, China and Russia need not say much. That is definitely not our current goal. India can also be ruled out, although we have achieved the highest Fourth, with India’s population and land area, it is impossible for any country in the world to defeat India within ten days without using nuclear weapons.

Therefore, Britain, France, South Korea, Japan, and Israel are left. Among the above five countries, Britain and France are NATO countries and are basically under the agreement of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. Now we are not suitable for a direct war with NATO. The next three countries.

Relations between South Korea and China have progressed smoothly in recent years, and the United States has finally returned command to the South Korean Ministry of Defense. Due to the close relations between China and Somalia, it is not appropriate to take action against South Korea. Moreover, we also have a lot of economic exchanges with South Korea. Both sides have huge interests. There is no direct dispute, and South Korea can also rule it out.

Therefore, only Israel and Japan are left. Of course, Israel does not need to say much. Its attitude towards Islamic countries has never changed. Over the years, Israel’s military has developed tremendously. According to the estimate of the combat power value of the Evaluation Center of the Ministry of Defense. , The combat capability of the Israeli army has ranked among the top ten in the world.And Israel, which is vigorously developing its military, is clearly targeting us.

Over the years, by virtue of its economic advantages, Japan has also made great efforts to develop its military, further breaking through the peaceful constitution, and with the slight indulgence of the United States, now Japan is not far from getting rid of the peaceful constitution, and over the years, Japan has successfully developed. Fleet and air force with good combat effectiveness.And our relationship with Japan has always been bad. Japan has repeatedly protested the pastures we built on the southeastern islands of China. The more important reason is that Japan triggered the Vietnam War. This is an inextricable hatred between us and Japan. .

Among the top ten countries, the best rivals are Israel and Japan.But Israel has nuclear weapons, and Japan is far away from us. War requires a long journey and supply lines are too long.In addition to these two issues, there is a more important issue, that is, the United States.Both Israel and Japan are allies of the United States, and Japan has signed a joint defense treaty with the United States. Once we attack Japan, the United States has the obligation to send troops to protect Japan.Israel is also a traditional ally of the United States. Once a war breaks out, it is very likely to drag the United States into the war.It will even spread to NATO."

After a lot of eloquence, Ling Liang briefly sorted out the pros and cons of Li Lan's topic, and then asked Li Lan: "Why would the commander think of doing something to the top ten countries in the world at this time?"

"You will know about this problem in the future, and the discussion will continue." Li Lan said lightly.Since he knew what the so-called global warfare is six years ago, he has been determined to complete the second mission of ultimate authority. In Ling Liang's words, he has made it clear enough, but he has no intention to give up.

Six years of development and preparation were not for peace. Everything was to move closer to war. After six years, the strength of the Red Police Corps skyrocketed, and there was no need for him to wait any longer.

"Which is the target of the commander?" Tan Ya asked.

"Japan or Israel." Li Lan said.

"Israel has nuclear weapons, and Japan can also have nuclear weapons in a short time. It is not easy to be able to enter the world's top ten military. If it is against Japan, in my opinion, it is better to target Israel, at least The United States has no reason to force troops to intervene." Ling Liang continued.
