Wang Changzheng was not aimless. Apart from his excellent military skills, Xu Gang also had high literary attainments. Some of his poems were praised by some university professors as a military poet.

Xu Gang did not answer Wang Changzheng's question, but instead asked, "Captain Wang, have you read the news just now?"

"I've seen it, the country of Fei is in need of a beating. Hey, Commander Xu, you said that the Military Commission sent us to the South China Sea for training this time. Do you want us to teach the country of Fei? ground power."

Xu Gang smiled: "What is your basis of judgment?"

Wang Changzheng smiled: "Isn't this obvious? There are three battalions of marines on the three large landing ships, and they are equipped with standard landing combat equipment. The supplies just added can also illustrate this point."

Xu Gang nodded: "Captain Wang, your analysis is good. This time we may win a jackpot, and the target of the attack may be the navy and air force of the Kingdom of Philip."

Wang Changzheng hurriedly asked: "Commander Xu, before we arrived in the South China Sea, President Mu called you, did he give you an order, we are old classmates, can you disclose something in advance."

Text 620 Chapter [-] Emergency meeting

Seeing Wang Changzheng's eager look, Xu Gang smiled: "President Mu didn't tell me anything, I know as much as you.

Speaking of this, Xu Gang smiled mysteriously: "We just need to be ready to fight at any time and wait for the order of the Central Military Commission. Let me ask you, do you have a good grasp of the military deployment of these countries in the South China Sea?"

"I said, Commander Xu, you are really there. We are old classmates, and you have not leaked a word at this time. We have already figured out the family background of these countries in the South China Sea. Where their plane is placed and which port is that ship parked in is clearly detected by our satellites and unmanned aircraft. If there is a real fight, I can guarantee that after the first wave of attacks There would no longer be a target."

Xu Gang nodded and then shook his head again. His strange action confused Wang Changzheng: "Commander Xu, do you not believe in the technical and tactical level of the officers and soldiers, or are they not strong enough for our mixed formation? confidence?"

Xu Gang smiled: "Captain Wang, we are all old classmates, you should know me very well. Although our mixed formation has not been established for a long time, after this short period of high-intensity drills, The cooperation between the warships and the various arms is quite tacit, as long as the military commission orders us to take action, the ships and planes of the Philip Kingdom will definitely not be able to escape our first wave of attack."

"Then why did you nod and shake your head just now?"

"Nodding means agreeing with what you just said, shaking your head means disagreeing with your analysis and judgment just now."

"Commander Xu, don't play tricks on me. Why do you agree with the speech but disagree with the analysis? I'm confused by going around."

Xu Gang knew that Wang Changzheng was pretending to be confused, and that he wanted to trap him, the commander of the formation, on the ground.

"Captain Wang, our mixed formation is strong enough. There are more than 30 J-18 fighter jets, and there are also twenty of the most advanced Wuzhi 10, not to mention thousands of cruise missiles. Such a powerful strike force Let alone the country of Fei, even Little Japan has to weigh it carefully, but good things can’t be monopolized by our family alone. We should distribute some of them to other arms.”

"I understand a little bit when you say this. You mean that the Military Commission will give others a few pieces from this bowl of fat?"

Xu Gang smiled and nodded: "Old classmate, the Second Artillery fired missiles at these islands two days ago, and the exercise was a complete success. I guess the Military Commission is deliberately letting the Second Artillery train its hands. They may be responsible for the blow."

Wang Changzheng became a little anxious: "If all these targets are handed over to the Second Artillery, wouldn't we have nothing to do? We came so far and went back without fighting. Fa will explain to his brothers."

Xu Gang shook his head again: "Old classmate, the Military Commission will not let us hold a single shot, but will give us the most difficult task. Except for the three large landing ships, other forces will definitely On the side of the U.S. military base at Changi in Singapore."

"You mean we might have a fight with the Americans at the same time?"

"It's not possible, but certain! The Americans have always been unconvinced by the rise of our country. Although their aircraft carriers are too scared to come, their planes may not stop coming. Besides, the United States and Philippe There is also a mutual defense agreement, if we really launch an attack on the ground targets in Philipines, do you think that the United States can sit idly by? They will express it anyway.”

Wang Changzheng was happy, and said eagerly, "This is great. My gang of pilot brothers have long wanted to compete with the Yankees in real battles. The weak ones will be left to the Second Artillery and the Marine Corps. We Specially deal with the strong, which shows that the Military Commission still thinks highly of us."

The two of them were chatting here, when Xu Gang's portable headset heard the voice of the communication staff officer: "Commander Xu, the Military Commission is calling!"

Xu Gang looked at Wang Changzheng: "The show is about to begin! Don't think about it here, brother, go back and make preparations immediately!"

I also have to say that Xu Gang still has a very strategic vision. The order of the Military Commission is very simple. The Second Artillery Corps is responsible for the airport, port and all military targets in Feiguo. The marines on the three landing ships will cooperate with the quick response force. Operation, the mixed formation is mainly responsible for the security of the Changi military base in Singapore.If American planes and warships dare to intervene when we are attacking Philip, they must be shot down and sunk first.

The battle plan formulated long ago was quickly transmitted to every combat unit using the tactical transmission chain.The modern military command system is so fast, and there is no need to hold any combat meetings before a major war, which fully demonstrates the efficiency and practicality of communication methods in modern warfare.

"Order the fleet to deploy in battle formation and implement the F1 combat plan."

Following Xu Gang's order, the aircraft carrier formation drew a huge arc on the sea, with the bow of the ship always pointing towards the windward direction. The officers and soldiers on the aircraft carrier deck were well-trained and methodically making various preparations.A big battle is about to begin.

At [-] o'clock in the evening, the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs urgently invited the Filipino ambassador to China, Han Guangtao, the vice foreign minister in charge of Asian affairs, once again lodged a solemn protest to the Filipino country on behalf of the Chinese government, and announced that in view of the violent riots in the Filipino country, It is still spreading, and the Filipino government has not taken effective measures to stop it so far. Huaxia decided to send a fleet to Filipino to protect the overseas Chinese.Any act of preventing the operation of protecting overseas Chinese is regarded as a military provocation against China, and the Chinese army has the right to defend itself.

The rhetoric on the diplomatic side is like this, which means that it depends on pondering. When the Chinese army goes to Philip to protect the overseas Chinese, it means dispatching ground troops and has the right to defend itself. That means that the military forces of Philip will not be able to take any action, otherwise If not, Huaxia's army will attack them.

At the same time, Huaxia TV repeatedly broadcast the statement of the Central Government of China during prime time. This sudden move once again shocked the whole world.No one thought that Huaxia would dispatch ground troops to organize the evacuation of overseas Chinese on the territory of Filipino.While being shocked again, these countries also raised a question, does China have the ability to deploy troops on such a large scale over long distances? US President Ophegus once again held an emergency meeting. Too many emergency cabinet meetings have been held. As the saying goes, mud people are still a bit rustic, let alone a world military power like the United States?He tolerated it again and again, but he didn't expect that Huaxia would make an inch of it and would use force against the country of Fei.

Minister of Defense Chase spoke first: "Gentlemen, it is absolutely intolerable for China to invade a sovereign country, not to mention that we have signed a mutual defense treaty with Philip. If we treat China as naked as this If we don't respond to the aggression, we will lose our allies forever. China's control of Philip is equivalent to control of the Strait of Malacca, and our last strategic line of defense against China will collapse. If we want to prevent them from entering the Indian Ocean , that is absolutely impossible.”

Secretary of State Michael put forward a different opinion: "Mr. Chase, China dispatched the army for the purpose of protecting the overseas Chinese. The troubles in the country of Philippe are indeed outrageous. Now the western media are reporting this kind of anti-human behavior in the country of Philippe. , Now that the public opinion situation is very favorable to Huaxia, isn't it a bit inappropriate for us to react at this time?"

Labor Secretary David said: "I disagree with Mr. Michael's opinion. The U.S. government has the right to legally and effectively stop acts that endanger the free world of the West. , with the 4000 billion U.S. debt in vain to force us to bow our heads, and now they are going to attack our allies again."

David looked at Michael and raised his voice, and said viciously: "Go to his U.S. debt, if we don't respond, we will lose the trust of the whole world, and we have to fight head-to-head with China. We It just so happened to take this opportunity to announce that the U.S. debt in Huaxia's hands is void, and they have lost the weapon of U.S. debt, what else can they threaten us?"

Text two thousand 620 four chapters limited interference

Michael could see that David was very dissatisfied with him, but at this critical moment, how could he have such a temperament? If he really did what David said, it would really drag the United States to Southeast Asia In this quagmire.

Michael met David's gaze and said firmly: "Mr. David, I suggest that you read the theory of political economy carefully. If we declare the U.S. debt held in Huaxia's hands void, let alone whether this method is feasible or not. It makes sense, but in this way, we will tear our skins apart with Huaxia, and it can be said that we have entered a state of all-out war. If Huaxia nationalizes all American-funded enterprises in their territory, what should we do? Are we Will there be a large-scale war with Huaxia?"

CIA director Bill said: "I think what Mr. Michael said is very reasonable. China now holds 4000 billion shrunk dollar debts. It is still unknown when they will get the money, but we have it in their country. The 2000 trillion high-quality assets, if they announce their nationalization, can immediately exert huge economic benefits. Compared with the two, the United States will suffer a greater loss. Besides, China’s 4000 trillion U.S. debt has 80.00 % are anonymous. If we announce that Huaxia’s 4000 trillion U.S. debt is invalid, it means that all the U.S. debt we issued will be invalid. In this way, the United States will be more isolated in the world. Even if we want Fight a war with China, and our dollars won't buy anything."

Kornford, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said: "I think that China's military action to protect overseas Chinese this time may be a temporary and limited war against the Philippines. Successive Chinese governments have repeatedly advertised that they will not take an inch of land from other countries. , if they dare to impose a long-term occupation on Philip, then they will lose their trust in the whole world, the Chinese government is very strategic, I don’t think they will take such a big risk.”

Ophegus nodded slightly. He thought that what Mike and Kornford said was very reasonable, and David's proposal just now was useless, neither in theory nor in practice.But if you don't respond to Huaxia, it is indeed difficult to explain to your allies and the domestic people. How can you respond and avoid further expansion of the situation?

While Orpheus was thinking about it, he heard Kornford say again: "Since China's announcement of sending troops to protect the overseas Chinese is a temporary and limited war against the Philippines, we can also make a limited response. Considering that China already has the Dongfeng series Missiles, it is obviously unrealistic to send an aircraft carrier, and it is also letting our soldiers die. My opinion is to use the power of the Changi military base and dispatch military aircraft to restrict and stop China’s military operations. This shows that the US government strictly abides by the The mutual defense agreement signed by the United States proves to the world that the United States is still capable of maintaining world peace. Most importantly, it can calm down the minds of Chinese leaders and make them realize that they have nothing in the world without the United States It's done."

After Kernford finished speaking, none of the cabinet members followed suit. Everyone was thinking about the pros and cons of Kernford’s suggestion. After a while, Michael said: “I think Mr. Kernford’s suggestion is very good. To further stimulate China, and to show the world the position and attitude of the United States."

"If China occupies Philip for a long time, how should we deal with it?" It was Minister of Defense Chase who spoke, and his words were also one of the things that Ophegus and his cabinet members were most worried about.

Michael thought for a while and said: "If this is the case, it depends on what the congressional delegation will bring back for us when they visit China tomorrow."

Everyone is very clear about what Michael's words mean. Originally, the US congressional delegation had a bottom line when they visited China this time. They would withdraw their troops from Asia in exchange for China not continuing to sell US debt.If this goal can really be achieved, the United States will withdraw from Asia anyway, so it won't care about so many things anymore, let Huaxia and the country of Fei fight a battle, as long as they can use the small countries like the country of Philip to China is trapped in Asia, and the United States can use this time to develop its economy in order to make a comeback.

Ophegus looked at the timing and knocked on the table and said: "Gentlemen, our current judgment on the situation in the South China Sea is based on China's temporary and limited occupation of the Philippines. Since we are going to give up interests, there is no need to make an overly violent response to stimulate China. But at the same time, we also have to explain to our allies. The limited response proposed by Mr. Kernford is correct, since we cannot send aircraft carriers to , then we have to use Singapore, an unsinkable aircraft carrier, Huaxia will never dare to go to war with two countries at the same time."

"Mr. President, what if we dispatched a plane and clashed with the Chinese army during the intervention?"

Ophegus looked at Kornford, thought for a while and said: "Since we have decided to carry out a limited response, we must control everything within a controllable range. Our F22 fighter is said to have a strong In terms of combat effectiveness, they can be allowed to counterattack when the opponent fires first, and by the way, it can also test the actual combat capabilities of the F22."

"Damn old fox!" Minister of Defense Chase cursed secretly in his heart.He knew very well what Offeggs meant by testing the actual combat capability of the F22 fighter.If there is an air battle between the two sides during the limited intervention in the Chinese army this time, and if F22 can win again, Orpheus may support the military to continue to purchase F22. If it fails, Orpheus will also There is something to say, presumably those arms manufacturers will not continue to force Orpheus to buy F22 fighters, which creates a good condition for Orpheus to drastically cut military spending and implement a new policy of economic revival .

After Chinese Vice Foreign Minister Han Guangtao summoned the Filipino ambassador to China and announced to him China's decision to send troops to evacuate overseas Chinese, Philippe President Abrian soon learned of the news.He knew that China's sending troops to protect the overseas Chinese meant the start of a war between the two countries, and Abu Liang was now in a difficult position to ride a tiger. In addition, he believed that China did not have the ability to deploy troops remotely, so naturally he could not show weakness at this time.Abu Liang is very clear that if he bows his head to China now, it will not only make the world ridicule, but also mean that he will lose the throne of president forever, and may be judged by China.

After urgent consultations with the Congress, Abrian issued a war mobilization order to the whole country, ordering the army, navy and air force to take all necessary measures to resist China's military aggression against Philip. The common defense treaty between the United States and Philippines provides the necessary protection to the country of Philip.

虽然腓国号称拥有所谓的陆海空三军，但是其军事实力也实在是可怜。菲律宾现有陆军兵力7万人。编有5个军区、8个步兵师、1个轻装甲旅、3个工程兵旅、l个骑兵侦察团、l个特战团、l个建筑营、8个炮兵营、l个总统保安队。

The Philippine Navy has 2.05 people, of which the Marine Corps currently has 8500 troops, which is a very large proportion.The Philippine Navy fleet consists of 1 frigate brigade, 5 patrol boat brigades and 1 speedboat brigade.A total of 114 ships of various types.Among them, there are 14 offshore patrol boats and 53 smaller offshore patrol boats. These are all the possessions of the Philippine Navy. It is not so much a navy, but it is more like an offshore guard, scaring pirates It is still possible.

In 1975, the U.S. military was driven out of Vietnam with great reluctance. The South Vietnamese Navy they supported, as well as some destroyers and several speedboats that had participated in the Huaxia and Vietnam’s Xisha naval battles, also fled to the Philippines. swell up.Later, due to the serious corruption and corruption of the Philippine Navy, the lack of funds caused these ships to be scrapped soon after they were not properly maintained, and the strength of the Philippine Navy quickly declined.
