Chapter 561 Please activate the three-level alert

The news of an explosion in a Somali arsenal, causing dozens of casualties, spread all over the world through various channels in the afternoon of the same day.

There are gloating people, terrorist threat theorists, and criticism and disdainful remarks soon filled the whole Internet and some informal media.

At this moment, the Somali political axe and the National Defense Force are under great pressure from the outside and the inside. In particular, some internal forces, which had been suppressed by the Paramin cooking army, thought that they had seized the handle of their opponents, suddenly shouted in some media at home or abroad, and the public opinion against Paraming cooking army and the Chief of Staff of Hussein gradually rose.

President Yusuf was stunned after receiving the report from Chief of Staff of Hussein. He has just had a deeper and closer cooperation with Paraming's cooking army, and such a thing happened in a blink of an eye. As a politician, he not only saw the harm this brought to Hussein and Palamin's cooking army, but also felt that Somalia had now been dragged into a big conspiracy by some conspirators, and it would be a doomed if he was not careful.

When Hussein's chief of staff gently hinted that the explosion of the logistics warehouse may even be the first plan of the secret enemy, and the next step may be the Somali army to cross the dividing line to invade Somalia, You Sufu couldn't sit still for a moment and hurriedly asked people to inform the defense commissioners to hold an emergency defense meeting. Discuss.

"Gentlemen, the explosion of the Kalis Defense Force's material warehouse is a naked conspiracy of the enemy hidden in the dark, a despicable calculation against Somalia." President Yousuf set the whole thing to the tone in his first words, and then patted the table with an indignant face and said, "Some of us, ambitions and desires will never be satisfied. We forget that we are a soldier, and even forget that we are Somalis. We have colluded with the enemy to create such a shocking terrorist attack, for With a little selfish desire, he tried to destroy the country's hard-won peace, dragged Somalia back into the flames of war, and sat down and sat down to watch 10 million compatriots moan and die under the enemy's bullets... Bang! I want to ask, do you still have a sense of justice? Do you still have a patriotic heart... Huh?"

Yusuf's not strong body leaned forward slightly, ** his hands covered with curly fluff outside the short sleeves waved in the air for a while, and then suddenly patted the table heavily. A pair of eyes swept over everyone, making the committee members here tremble with a chill, which felt like being targeted by a cobra.

Although Hussein was also secretly surprised by the sudden bursting momentum of the little old man, he did not feel much pressure. At this meeting, he was secretly looked at every member in the conference room. Even the committee members who made friends with him or were neutral did not miss it. Those who can easily bring outsiders into the logistics warehouse must be a real person in power in the military, or at least a brigade-level commander. However, ordinary brigade-level commanders will not go to the logistics warehouse, and even if they go, they will not bring many outsiders. The name of the logistics warehouse is to provide logistical supplies for the garrison, but in fact, it is jointly managed by the logistics department and the military region. The position of a brigade-level commander is relatively insufficient. And every member sitting in this conference room has the ability to bring some outsiders into the logistics warehouse. Of course, Hussein will not miss this opportunity to find clues.

Just after President Yusuf's loud anger, Hussein's heart was moved. He actually saw a flash of panic in the eyes of his old opponent, Mr. Hash. Although the fluke came and went quickly, Hussein could guarantee that he was not wrong. That's not an illusion.

Is this internal leaker and traitor really this old thing? Hussein lowered his head slightly and thought, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

Hash, an old man, often sang against himself. This time, he dared to eat inside and out and participated in such a despicable conspiracy. The boss once said that it is impossible to turn everyone into one's own, as long as you firmly grasp the maximum part of the power, so that the remaining small part of the power that is not under control will not pose a fatal threat to yourself. Hussein has always been based on this kind of thinking and did not kill Hash and others, but who knows that these people don't know what's good or bad and do this kind of thing. Is the boss too soft-hearted, or are these people despicable?

"Chief of Staff, tell everyone about the Carlis warehouse." After President Yusuf vented, his mood seemed to be relieved, and he was no longer as murderous as he began to speak.

Hussein nodded and said, "Yes, President." Hussein then informed the members present of what he had learned, and focused on the analysis of a series of consequences that the explosion of the Kalis warehouse may have caused. The most serious is that Somaliland may take this opportunity to take military action against Somalia.

At the beginning, some members also planned to watch Hussein's jokes. Since last year, there was an incident in which the commanders of two infantry brigades privately hid ammunition and attempted to rebel, the Somali Defense Force's supervision of each unit and logistics warehouse materials has been further strengthened, all of which is the responsibility of the Chief of Staff Hussein. Nowadays, a warehouse has been infiltrated and blown up by the enemy. Although the main responsibility is that there are traitors in the military, Chief of Staff Hussein is also responsible. On the one hand, Hussein is responsible for this matter. On the other hand, it can be said that the National Defense Force is under the control of Hussein's Chief of Staff. If there is a traitor or Hussein's failure, a responsibility for dereliction of duty can't escape. But when they listened to Chief of Staff Hussein's analysis, the bombing of the logistics warehouse not only caused the two troops on the front line not to be able to get ammunition supplies within three days, but also panicked after being caught by Somaliland to invade Somalia.

It is normal for everyone to have internal struggles, but that is when there is no enemy and no pressure from the outside world. Once a foreign enemy attacks, everyone fights happily with each other and can only take advantage of outsiders. Everyone knows this truth. Therefore, the attack on Hussein had to be put aside for the time being and concentrate on discussing how to deal with the enemy's secret means and possible military threats in Somaliland.

"In order to prepare for the enemy's possible next steps, I would like to request His Excellency the President and the members present to adopt a proposal to raise the level of full [***] alert, and hope that the government axe department can come forward to requisition trucks and other means of transportation to provide logistical support for the 5th Infantry Brigade and the 11th Infantry Brigade..."

Raising the level of military vigilance was only implemented once after the establishment of the new policy axe in Somalia. It was still the time when the 'rumor crisis' broke out. In order to arrest the mastermind behind the rumors, under the pressure of Li Mo's left hand, big stick and right hand carrot, You Sufu and the National Defense Commission reluctantly passed, and put the national vigilance, etc. The level has been upgraded to level four, which is also the lowest of the four alert levels in Somalia. This time, Somalia may face a direct military threat from abroad. The four-level alert will not make Somalia understand the secret threat. The alert level proposed by the Chief of Staff is three.

Everyone understands the meaning of the three-level alert, that is, the situation is tense and major abnormalities in the surrounding areas, which may cause a direct military threat to the country. The main task of the army is to mobilize combat readiness, strengthen combat readiness duty and communication support. The troops on duty can operate at any time. Take combat tasks, pay close attention to the enemy's movements, and keep abreast of the situation in time; from the moment the country declares that the country is on third-level alert, all officers and soldiers will stop taking vacations, recuperation, visiting relatives, leaving the army, etc.

Once the three-level alert is activated, at least one-sixth of the more than 60,000 troops in Somalia will be on combat readiness duty, on standby at any time, and will be put into battle at any time. Moreover, in Somalia, the 5th Infantry Brigade and the 11th Infantry Brigade of the Northern Military Region are basically in a state of combat readiness. If you are on duty with three levels of vigilance, all four brigade-level troops in the Northern Military Region will be on alert. Because the Kalis warehouse was blown up, the capital military region closest to the Northern Military Region is bound to do a certain amount of combat readiness and mobilization to support the northern battle at any time.

Although everyone feels that it is too abrupt and a little fuss to directly upgrade the army to the third-level alert, no one dares to oppose it at this time. After all, it is possible for Hussein to propose that the Somaliland army to invade Somalia. The Northern Military Region is better prepared for war.

"I'm against it!" Just as everyone was about to raise their hands to agree to activate the three-level alert, a voice sounded in the conference room.

Committee member Hash turned a blind eye to the surprise and suspicions of the people around him, and said with a faint smile, "I think the use of the third-level alert needs to be carefully studied, because once the National Defense Force activates the third-level alert, it will inevitably cause uneasiness in neighboring countries and a tense atmosphere; if it causes misunderstanding, it will lead to An armed conflict with neighboring countries is not a good thing for Somalia, and no one can bear this responsibility. When Hash spoke, he took a special look at Hussein, which made it very clear that you can't afford to bear this responsibility.

The two neutral members were hesitant about the proposal to activate the three-level alert. At this moment, when they heard the words of Commissioner Hash, they couldn't help nodding. The words of Commissioner Hash are very reasonable. Once a three-level alert is activated, countries and regions such as Kenya, Ethiopia and Somaliland around Somalia, from their own perspective, they should also make corresponding precautions and order the border forces to increase their vigilance. At this time, the tense atmosphere is uncontrollably formed. Once there are some changes in the middle, there is a great possibility of armed conflict between the two sides. Because they are on alert, the troops are very ** to the conflict, and the situation of armed conflict is easy to expand, leading to war.

Moreover, as neighboring countries, most of them are not friendly to each other. There are territorial disputes or other contradictions between Somalia and Kenya and Ethiopia, and conflicts are more likely to occur. Sometimes, even if the senior officials on both sides are unwilling to clash, the senior officials who are far away from the border are unable to grasp the border dynamics in time, coupled with the capabilities of border soldiers and commanders and other unexpected situations, once they get out of control, the consequences are unimaginable.
