After the Pentagon spokesperson released the news that the U.S. Pacific Fleet's "first wave of strikes on Iri Island was successful," the Pentagon has been waiting for further news from Lieutenant General Van Fritz, such as the destruction of buildings on Iri Island.
Report of casualties.
Of course, it also includes General Van Fritz's report on the task force's own situation. After all, the United States is not fighting wars every day and launching missiles every day. This information is also very needed for the Pentagon.
However, two hours later, Van Fritz seemed to have disappeared from the earth, and no telegram was sent. The people at the Pentagon waited for three hours, but still no telegram came, so they called the people in Hawaii.
Pacific Fleet Command asked Van Fritz what was going on.
What happened to Van Fritz? The fleet headquarters was also confused because they had been in contact with Van Fritz's task force, but Van Fritz had kept the radio silent and they could not contact them at all.
"What, radio silence, is this necessary?" The Pentagon immediately reported the situation to boss Kurt.
"Keep in touch! Report every 15 minutes." Kurt ordered calmly, but in his heart he had already sentenced Van Fritz to death. If he dared to play "missing" at the critical moment, he was not seeking death.
What?
In the United States, due to the relatively complete "military nationalization", the Secretary of Defense has very strong power in military personnel appointments. Kurt thought this way, and obviously wanted to replace Van Fritz after the war.
Fifteen minutes later, the assistant came in. But it was not the news about Van Fritz, but the call from Pacific Fleet Commander Remiconi to inquire: The sea and air of Kite Island will soon enter dawn. Van Fritz has not been contacted yet.
Is it necessary to continue the next wave of operations of Ci’s task force?
"Oops!" Kurt patted his forehead, and then said, "Let him wait a moment, I'll ask the president for instructions."
Kurt didn't sleep all night, and his mind was a little unclear. Besides, although Van Fritz didn't contact him, he didn't think it was a big deal. Could it be that Van Fritz's task force would still fly from the earth?
Can't it disappear?
President Reagan is old. After issuing the attack order yesterday, he went back to rest without waiting for news of success. This is because a series of issues from the beginning of the attack to the landing on the island are all technical issues and are within the scope of the Pentagon's control.
.If such purely technical issues have to be addressed by the president, how can the US military be called the most powerful military in the world?
However, President Reagan couldn't sleep when he returned home, because he felt vaguely uneasy, starting from the Monument of Mount Everest, to Zao Wou-Ki's miraculous blocking of bullets, to the actual increase of Rite Island dozens of times, and the explosion of Rite Island.
The tough attitude, all of this is beyond common sense, and there seems to be an invisible thread connecting these events.
This invisible line should be the "alien" that everyone guessed. The United States did obtain the remains of an alien spacecraft. This proves that aliens do exist and that aliens can reach the earth. However,
The United States did not benefit much from the alien spacecraft wreckage.
However, speculating that Rite Island has obtained alien technology and proving that Rite Island has acquired alien technology are two different things. Even if this process is very arduous and costly, the United States has to prove it. Who makes the area where Rite Island is located?
Is it the core area of interest of the United States in Asia?
Besides, the Kite Island Autonomy Declaration also has a Chinese background, and these Chinese people are veterans of the Chinese army. This is really meaningful.
Therefore, even though Reagan had a premonition that the prospect of launching an attack on Kite Island this time was not particularly clear, he still had to go ahead without hesitation.
People can't sleep because they haven't thought through some issues. At this time, President Reagan thought clearly and fell asleep peacefully. However, not long after he fell asleep, the phone call woke him up.
"What? Van Fritz's task force can't be contacted?" Regan looked at the alarm clock on the bedside. It was 1 o'clock in the middle of the night. It was indeed almost dawn in the waters of Kite Island.
"Do we need to continue our next wave of attacks?" Kurt fell silent when he heard the question on the other end of the phone, but he hadn't gotten the answer he wanted yet.
"Continue! But the focus of the mission is changed to searching for Task Force 76. In addition, I will be at the Pentagon right away." President Reagan had to suspend his sleep. A fleet could not be contacted, and thousands of American soldiers were not alive or dead.
In any case, this was the biggest incident for the US military since World War II. Even in the Northeast Asian battlefield and the Annan Jungle, there had never been such a serious accident.
…
On the Chinese side, in an underground command room of the military headquarters, a military boss and staff member stayed up all night.
The chief arrived at the command room after 12 o'clock in the night. The arrival of the chief made the military staff members emotional. These general-level staff officers who came from the grassroots level of the army did not usually have many opportunities to see the chief.
After the chief chatted with the staff officers for a few words, he and other military leaders entered a large explanation room. A military staff officer compiled various materials and explained the latest information and the latest battle situation to the chiefs! Of course,
It is necessary to deduce the situation of the war on Kite Island.
There is a war that is about to break out, and it is a war related to the Chinese people. Both the military bosses and these staff officers are very interested, because any war that breaks out in human beings is worthy of study and attention.
"Chief, according to intelligence, the Americans dispatched the 76th Task Force of the Pacific Fleet this time, commanded by Lieutenant General Van Fritz, commander of the task force. The task force consisted of 1 guided missile cruiser, 2 guided missile destroyers, 4
It consists of 1 guided missile frigate, 4 landing ships, 4 minesweepers, and 2 supply ships, among which the guided missile cruiser is Van Fritz's command ship. The fleet has 2,800 officers and soldiers."
"It's coming with such force!" Chen Kun, No. 3 of the Military Department, sighed.
The leader did not speak, but was looking at the huge map in trance. This Zhao Wuji has magical means to choose an island to build his own foundation. This is understandable. But why did he choose a place where the interests of the United States are so obviously entangled?
What? The north, northwest and east are all the territory of the American people. Even the Kangaroo Kingdom in the south has a very close relationship with the United States. The chief looked left and right, but he couldn't see where the future of Kite Island would be.
"Report, the latest intelligence! US President Ronald Reagan has issued an attack order!" A staff officer walked in with a stack of intelligence.
The leaders were very concerned about this information, but they were only concerned and did not show any special emotions. In fact, if Toido Island does not "surrender", the Americans have only one way to go, and that is to go to war!
"Do we have any power in the waters near Yuan Island?" the leader suddenly asked.
"Reporting to the leader, we have a nuclear submarine that arrived 300 nautical miles southwest of Yuan Island yesterday. Considering that Yuan Island may become the center of war, the Americans have too many submarines, so they did not let it get closer." Zhang Tingzhi, commander of the Chinese Navy, replied.
.
The leader glanced at Zhang Tingzhi and said, "We are weak. It is right to look further away."
However, Zhang Tingzhi was taken aback by the commander's words. The commander was obviously saying that their navy was too timid. They could only see the excitement from 540 kilometers away. What could they see from such a long distance?
Speaking of which, the Chinese military was not timid at this time. It really became timid after the Gulf War and after seeing the United States' brand-new combat model. China believed that if it fought against the American army, it had zero chance of winning.
For a long time, I didn’t even dare to speak out internationally.
"I think the information on the exchange of fire will be available later. Let's talk about it. Is there any chance of winning this time?" The chief suddenly raised a topic.
Lu Xinghua is the director of the Sixth Military Staff Bureau. He also has the title of "Director of the Military Intelligence Department", so Lu Xinghua is also qualified to be present. However, Lu Xinghua was surprised when he heard the chief's question. Could it be that the chief still has
What special information? Otherwise, this is obviously a one-sided war. How could the chief ask about Toido Island's chances of winning?
Although Lu Xinghua was familiar with Zhao Wuki and could be considered a friend with Zhao Wuki, he didn't know much about Zhao Wuki. The reason was naturally caused by Zhao Wuki, because Zhao Wuki believed that his relationship with Lu Xinghua was more about
Working relationship, personal relationship can not be discussed; in addition, during the trip to Kunlun Mountain, Zhao Wuji deepened his personal friendship with Luo Ming, Slender Monk and others. Therefore, the contact between Zhao Wuji and Lu Xinghua became less and less, almost all
It's about to break.
As for the evil that Luo Ming told the chief, the chief would naturally not tell anyone.
"Chief, how can Yuan Island have any chance of winning? The task force dispatched by the US military this time is more numerous than all the residents of Yuan Island, not to mention the US military and the Philippine and Guam air force support.
." said a staff officer.
"In addition, the territory of Yuandao Island is too small. Even with an area of 45 square kilometers, it lacks strategic depth." Another staff officer said, and he also had a "strategic vision."
"Chief, the latest information: The world's major gambling companies have offered betting odds on the Tite Island War. The highest odds are that the Tite Island will win, 10 to 1,000." At this moment, another stack of information was delivered to the explanation room.
"Haha, if I had money, I would definitely buy this 'Tobishima Katsu' and become rich overnight!" A staff officer said with a smile after hearing this information.
"If you are really rich, I really recommend you to buy it, maybe you can really make a fortune." Another consultant joked.
When the chief heard this, his thoughts changed. He immediately stood up and said to Luo Ming: "Luo Ming, come out for a moment and I will tell you something." As the chief's guard captain and an important figure in the military, Luo Ming is naturally qualified to participate.
this meeting.
"Chief, please give me instructions." The two came outside and Luo Ming stood at attention and said.
"Immediately call Du Yiqiang and ask him to mobilize overseas secret funds. Go to the bookmaker immediately to buy the 'Ryoshima Victory' handicap. How much should you buy? Let him buy 1 billion yuan. This matter must be hidden.
, don’t let others see it.” At the end, the chief also warned.
"Yes, Chief." Luo Ming said excitedly and turned around. Luo Ming was excited because the Chief's gambling instruction showed that the Chief completely believed in Master.
"If this bet loses, Zhao Wuji will use a 1 billion yuan project to pay off the debt. Anyway, he has invested a lot in China." Looking at the background of Luo Ming's departure, the leader's mouth curled up with a hint of regret.
A sly smile.
