Chapter 945 Restoration Plan
During the sudden change in the Western Pacific, the Israeli political axe suddenly accused the Syrian army of deliberately destroying water sources in the Golan Heights and affecting the water used by the Israeli people. At the same time, it announced that in order to maintain the normal water use of the Israeli people, it would send troops to 'protect' the source of life for Israelis.
Then, under the cover of the air force, a large number of Israeli troops reoccupied part of the territory of the Golan Heights that had been returned to Syria. It seemed that they were ready to occupy the Golan Heights in one fell swoop.
The action of the Israeli army made the Syrian political axe very nervous. It quickly raised the alertness on the Syrian side of the Golan Heights, and some military forces in the rear were also temporarily mobilized to prepare for the possible invasion of the Israeli army.
In East Africa, Ethiopia and Kenya announced that the two countries will conduct a small-scale military exercise in the border area, aiming to strengthen exchanges between the two [***] and contribute more tacitly to peace and stability in East Africa.
For a while, there were gloomy winds all over the earth, and the war that affected the world was about to break out the next moment.
Although many people have seen that these events that suddenly broke out in one day have one thing in common, that is, the areas where the incident broke out are related to the member countries of the Third OECD. There is no need to guess that many people have seen that this is obviously a strong counterattack against the Third OECD.
In this world, except for the West, led by the United States, there is no force that can do this.
The third OECD is also covered with shadows. Although meetings at various levels are frequently held, the third OECD has its own opinions on how to solve the next series of conflicts.
The third OECD member countries were originally established because of common interests and needs, but once the national security is really involved, the differences between internal "covered" by common interests are exposed.
Both North Korea and Syria hoped to transfer their own warplanes from the main force of the United Air Force back to China for defense, but they were stopped by the other three countries. But everyone understands that it is impossible to rely on treaties alone to stop other members from protecting their national security.
There must be a way and means to effectively solve the problems everyone is facing.
At this time, a combat plan came from the Somali General Staff about taking the initiative. The political axes of the five countries had to turn their eyes to this plan when they realized that they could not fight separately.
... On February 19, only two days before the Security Council voted on the 'proposal' submitted by France and other countries, the international situation has become more tense. There was even a small-scale exchange of fire on the Korean Peninsula and the Golan, which cast a shadow on the hearts of the countries of the Third OECD.
At this time, Li Mo came to Garowe, the capital of Nugal State in northern Somalia, to inspect the first infantry brigade of the Northern Military Region here.
The first aircraft brigade is one of the elite mechanized troops in the Somali National Defense Force. The force is composed of a tank regiment, two mechanized infantry regiments, a rocket artillery regiment, an air defense battalion and a helicopter formation composed of six 'sparrow' helicopters. The force is composed of more than 4,000 people and equipped with advanced 'defending' The A' tank and the Lion King series of infantry fighting vehicles are undoubtedly the first-class army troops in East Africa.
Of course, it's not boring for Li Mo to come here to inspect the work. He is secretly talking to Brigadier General Ali in an office.
"General Ali, I don't know how the 'revenation plan' is going?" Li Mo sat on the seat of Brigadier General Ali with a cigarette and looked at a black general in his thirties sitting in the opposite chair and asked.
For an important combat unit such as the first aircraft brigade, the commander must be the direct line of the direct line. For example, Brigadier General Ali followed Li Mo very early. When Paraming cooked the army, Ali was the commander of the Camel Mountain Base Guard Company. Now he has gradually risen to the position of the commander of the first aircraft brigade, except for the ability. In addition, it is also related to the status of 'in lineage'.
And Li Mo's 'reation plan' was a plan that Li Mo secretly arranged a long time ago, but he never thought that he would really implement this plan so soon.
There is only one content of this plan, that is, to recover the Ogaden region divided by Britain to Ethiopia in the 19th century, that is, the territory that belongs to Somalia that the former Somali political axe once hoped to take back but failed.
Looking at Somalia on the big map is like a diagonally written word '7', and the Ogaden area is the concave of the '7' corner.
And it is Brigadier General Ali who is preparing for the 'recovery plan', because the reason why the first aircraft brigade was deployed to this place is because of this plan.
The Ogaden region is currently adjacent to the Somali Capital Military Region, the Northern Military Region and the Somaliland Military Region. In recent years, the brigade-level combat units belonging to several major military regions have also been deployed for this first district. At present, in addition to the first infantry brigade and an infantry brigade in the Northern Military Region, there is also the fourth infantry brigade of the Capital Military Region. An infantry brigade in the Somaliland Military Region is less than 500 kilometers long and has a depth of less than 100 kilometers on the border. In this area, it will also receive air support from the air bases of two military regions.
"Commander, in the past two years, we have sent soldiers disguised as ordinary merchants and even herdsmen to go deep into the Ogaden area. At present, we have figured out several lice on the old lion opposite. In this area, there is only one mountain regiment in Ethiopia, which is a regular army, mainly composed of herdsmen in the first district. In addition, there are about 500 border guards. If you order, we can cut off this area from Ethiopia as long as we send a group along the road. But if we want to completely occupy here, we need the support of at least two infantry brigades and special forces and helicopter units. Brigadier General Ali told some of the preparations and plans of the 'Resurreation Plan'.
Most of Ethiopia's territory is a plateau, which is conducive to defense and not conducive to attack. However, Brigadier General Ali has trained the troops in the past two years. However, the first infantry brigade is a mechanized force, and it is appropriate to fight in the Ogaden area, but if it goes deeper into Ethiopia, it needs the assistance of conventional infantry units. And it is also very suitable for special forces to fight in such a mountainous plateau. As for the 'sparrow' helicopter, it existed for guerrilla warfare and anti-guerrilla warfare.
"There are too many three brigades. I can only give you two brigades. In addition to the first infantry brigade, the 9th Infantry Brigade of the Somaliland Military Region will also cooperate with your operations. The helicopter battalions of the headquarters of the Northern Military Region and the Somaliland Military Region will be transferred to you, and the 'black hole' special forces will also be on standby. In terms of the air force, you have to find your own way. That's all I can give you, and I have only one requirement, that is, to take back the Ogaden area in two days and firmly control it. Li Mo stood up and paced with his hands on his back. After thinking for a long time, he looked back at Brigadier General Ali's eyes and said.
It's not a joke or impulsive to play in the Ogaden area, but Li Mo wants to set an example within the Third OECD, so that other member countries understand that the small actions made by the Americans behind their backs are not worth it. Three or two actions can shake the flag behind the United States. The little bug was crushed to death.
While giving energy to other member countries, it also deters those countries that can't see the facts clearly. Don't be perverse with the support of the United States. Once you really come, the prototype will be exposed and you will find that you are nothing.
"Commander, make sure to complete the task!" Brigadier Ali said loudly with a red face.
Li Mo left Garowe with his front foot, and Brigadier General Ali began to act with his back foot.
At about 18 o'clock in the evening that day, the 3rd Aircraft Regiment of the First Aircraft Brigade in Somalia was suspected to have been secretly arrested by the Ethiopian border troops and forced to search in Ethiopia, which was strongly rejected by the Ethiopian border forces.
Half an hour later, the earth shuddered, and the rumbling roar came from afar. The third infantry regiment of Somalia's first infantry brigade took the lead with 12 'Defend A' tanks, followed by 48 infantry fighting vehicles to the border between the two countries.
The Ethiopian border troops were shocked and quickly sent people to inquire, and a Somali second lieutenant did not explain. He directly issued an ultimatum to the Egyptian border troops, claiming that if the Ethiopian border troops did not hand over the secretly arrested Somali soldiers within 15 minutes, the Somali side would forcibly enter Ethiopia to search for the missing soldiers.
The commander of the Egyptian border troops quickly protested loudly, but when he saw the indifferent face of the Somali second lieutenant, he quickly reported the news to his superiors.
Soon, it was reported to the staff of the Ethiopian Defense Force layer by layer. Major General Samora, the Chief of Staff, ordered the mountain regiment stationed in Berrisiad to reinforce the border of the incident, while ordering the border troops to stop the entry of Somali troops in any case. Then Major General Zamora rushed to the presidential palace to report.
At the beginning, the United States asked Ethiopia and Kenya to create some tension in the Somali border. Major General Zamora agreed very much. Samora has always looked down on Somalia, a country that once allowed Ethiopian troops to enter and leave. Although Somalia has appeared frequently in the world in recent years, it has become more and more There is a trend of 'the first power in East Africa', but the more so, the more Major General Zamora is dissatisfied with Somalia. He always believes that Ethiopia is the most powerful in East Africa.
Ethiopia has nearly 200,000 regular troops, while Somalia, after several layoffs, has only 50,000 troops and only a quarter of Egypt. How can it be the opponent of the 'East African Lions'?
But he didn't expect that Somalia would come to such a move just after announcing the border exercise with Kenya. This was not a counter-opsis at all, but a preparation for war.
Major General Zamora doesn't know what kind of emotion he is in his heart at this moment, with a trace of excitement in the tension. If he defeats Somalia, does it prove that Ethiopia is still the most powerful country in East Africa? Zamora will become a hero of Ethiopia again.
But just as he felt in front of the presidential palace, he received a phone call that really changed his face: the Somali army had crossed the border.
