Chapter 856 Sinking her at all costs
Li Mo said with a gloomy tone as if it was as a snowy day, "Now I order that all aircraft that can carry anti-ship missiles in the Northern Military Region take off, and the Air Force and Army Corps units of the Somaliland Military Region and the Capital Military Region all increase their vigilance and support at any time. Commander Gedi, you are responsible for this operation. The General Staff will cooperate fully with the Air Force Command and several military regions. I will hear the news of the sinking of the Flower Moon before 6 o'clock tomorrow morning. Is there any difficulty?"
"No, I promise to complete the task!" Brigadier General Gedi, the commander of the navy, stood straight and answered loudly. He was also full of fire at this time. The damn French not only killed so many Somalis, but also let him be 'scolded' by Li Mo in front of other people, and his face was lost. So when he heard that Li Mo asked him to deal with the French navy's frigate, he did not hesitate at all.
Li Mo nodded slightly, looked at the face of the intelligence minister Wang Ning, and said, "The intelligence department should make every effort to investigate the reason why the French did this."
"Yes!" Wang Ning also promised loudly.
Then Li Mo took out the phone on the spot and dialed a number. After the phone was connected, he ordered in front of the crowd, "Viper, now I order your department to immediately raise the highest alert and wait for my further order."
Hearing this sentence, the faces of several important military personnel changed. Who is the poisonous snake? That is the commander of the Somali Strategic Missile Regiment, who holds all of Somalia's nuclear weapons on duty and reserves. Now Li Mo even issued a warning order to the strategic missile regiment. Is Li Mo going to start a nuclear war for the sake of the 'Flower Moon'?
France is a nuclear power, and Somalia is also a nuclear power. Although France's nuclear power is stronger than that of Somalia, nuclear weapons are not conventional weapons. Strong does not mean that they have an overwhelming advantage and can be without scruples about each other.
In fact, they don't understand how angry Li Mo is at this moment. It's only been three months this year. He encountered three important things. First, Israel dared to send Mossad to the Moh base to assassinate him. Secondly, the American [***] ship dared to shoot down civil airliners at will on the high seas. Now the French [***] ship actually entered the Somali territorial waters and sank two Somali fishing boats, causing a large number of casualties. Li Mo felt that he was the role that anyone could easily bully, and he couldn't mention his aggrieved heart.
The Israeli Likud group assassinated Li Mo. In order not to make a big deal of the political assassination, Li Mo only targeted the baggage at Boss Mossad. He put up with it. The American political axe shot down the civil airliner, killing nearly 100 people. For the sake of the overall benefit, he still put up with it, but now the French also came up to take a bite, Li Mo felt that he really couldn't stand it.
In fact, sometimes things between countries are so simple. If you compromise once or twice, others will gradually not pay attention to you, and even some characters will bully you. Just like Huaxia, some small countries around them calmed down for a period of time after a lesson. After testing again and again, they saw that you were not very tough, and they became arrogant again.
So this time Li Mo felt that even if he lost everything now, he could no longer wrong himself. Li Mo is the kind of person who would rather bend than bend than be very tough. It's nothing to compromise once or twice, but over and over again, he will never say that this kind of compromise and weakness will continue.
It's better to be jade than tile. He is not the kind of politician who is extremely reasonable. He is just a person who doesn't have to put up with it when he can't stand it anymore... At the Wanlaer Air Base of the Northern Military Region of Somalia, with a sad siren sound, the huge base immediately boiled like water thrown into the oil.
The pilot rushed out of the dormitory, and the aircrew ran to the hangar... One after another 'Seagull' attack aircraft was towed out of the hangar and drove onto the runway.
Under the 'Seagull' attack aircraft, a C-801 anti-ship missile was mounted on it. Whenever a plane was ready, it ran to the air under the guidance of the command platform and ground personnel.
When six 'Seagull' attack aircraft were rented in the air and flew into the dark night sky, the runway of the base was still busy. The aircraft ready to take off again is the Su-24, the main attack aircraft in Somalia.
On the weapon mount that originally mounted the bomb, it was empty at this moment. Soon the aircrew pushed the car and pushed a thicker white missile under the plane and installed it. This is a 'small anchor' anti-ship missile specially equipped for attack aircraft such as Su-24.
Because there are only four Su-24 attack aircraft in the Somali Air Force, there is no need for a reserve of ammunition. These missiles are secretly obtained through various relationships.
When the four Su-24 attack aircraft also disappeared into the dark sky, the air base fell into silence again, but everyone knew that tonight was not a quiet night.
On the sea, the eastern part of the Gulf of Aden is close to the Western Indian Ocean and only 40 kilometers away from the land of the Somali Peninsula, a frigate belonging to France is traveling towards the northeast at high speed.
In the command module, Captain Monet put his hands on his chest, looked at the dark night outside the window, and ordered the radar soldiers to report on the radar detection from time to time.
Behind him stood two officers with uncertain faces, that is, the deputy captain and first mate of the frigate Huayue. The two are still replaying the scene in their minds an hour ago, under the order of Captain Monet, the 100mm gun of the frigate "Flower Moon" fired at two 'pirate ships' and sank.
Neither of them are stupid. After seeing this scene, they understood the reason for the mysterious expression of the captain before. It turned out that the frigate Huayue was close to the land of the Somali Peninsula to carry out such a difficult task.
They still don't know that Monet's order was secretly instructed or authorized by the naval command and the French political axe, but because the task was too important, the two of them were also excluded from the people they knew in advance. At this moment, the hearts of the two people were as up and down as their faces. They are thinking that if they are safe from the scope of attack by the Somali army, they will definitely get a chance to be rewarded or even promoted because of this secret operation after returning to China. If they are too lucky, I'm afraid they will explain it here. The two of them didn't know that this so-called 'secret operation' was just an important part of a conspiracy. And because of this 'secret operation', it almost triggered a nuclear war.
"Report... Suspicious light spots appeared in the southwest, suspected Somali aircraft, 1, 2... There are 10 in total, including six 'Seagull' attack aircraft and four Su-24 attack aircraft." Just as the atmosphere in the command module was getting dreary, the radar soldier reported bad news.
The Somalis finally came, and there were 10 attack planes that could be used to attack the sea, not one that came to negotiate.
Half an hour ago, they foresaw the scene after discovering the first reconnaissance aircraft of the Somali Air Force. But when the matter came, everyone was still very nervous.
The Somali Air Force is not good, it must be because of what they did in an hour. Thinking that the Somali Air Force might directly attack the Huayue, some young naval sailors on the incomparable power began to turn white and their calves were shaking.
In peacetime, many people regard service as an experience and an interest. They do not intuitively imagine what it will be like as soldiers when they encounter wars and conflicts. In most times of peace, especially those soldiers who have only served for two or three years, it is normal to be afraid of the danger of life and death.
Monet clenched his hands into fists tightly, and the blue veins bulging above could be seen clearly. He now knows that the 'Flower Moon' will be more or less auspicious today. The aggressive Somali air force is not only equipped with a 'northwest wind missile' with a maximum range of only six kilometers. Ordinary anti-ship missiles have a range of at least a dozen kilometers. The Huaxia C-801 anti-ship missile mounted on the Somali 'Seagull' attack aircraft has a maximum range of 50 kilometers, and the 'small anchor' missile has a maximum range of 39 kilometers. Whether in terms of quantity or the range of weapons, both sides are not at the same level.
'Damn the Castel family!' Captain Monet knew that he could not escape this crisis and cursed fiercely in his heart.
"Guys... Now our situation is very dangerous. Our action against pirates just now may lead to the Somali political axe to deal with us with shame and anger because of our mistaken entry into the Somali territorial sea." Captain Monet said in a calm tone as much as possible, "They are so aggressive that we can't resist them at all. So I hope everyone is ready to jump into the sea to escape, and the lifeboat and life jacket are ready... Finally, I wish everyone good luck. Monet's voice spread to every post and the ears of every French naval soldier through the broadcast. This extremely pessimistic sentence completely destroyed the fluke and hope in the hearts of many young soldiers. Many people couldn't stand the pressure and even began to hug and cry.
In the face of the threat of life and death, and there is no resistance and helplessness, anyone's spirit is extremely nervous and **. Once the nerves are tightened to the extreme, suddenly relax or tighten, the collapse is the result of many people.
"Ah... They began to launch missiles..." At this time, the panicked voice of the radar soldiers came out of the communication, which undoubtedly made everyone worse, and the shadow of death was getting closer and closer. Some of them were fragile and even began to scold the French political axe, the naval headquarters, and Captain Monet, while others silently prayed to God with the names of their loved ones.
The Huayue frigate is also evacuating according to the missile flight data reported by the radar soldiers. The bait launcher and gun on the ship are also in the direction of the missile under the help of the soldiers.
