Chapter 935 Competition for Air Secrecy Upper

After staying at the underground command center in the northern suburbs of Mogadishu for a day, after receiving the news of the United States' participation in the war, Li Mo moved to Camel Mountain Base, which is far from the war zone and there is an air base nearby, where planes can take off at any time to intercept incoming missiles and aircraft.

followed by Li Mo, there is also a person with a special status, that is, Ding Hui, the chief military officer of the Embassy in Somalia, who was sent by the Chinese political axe to discuss with Li Mo.

Compared with four or five years ago, the Camel Mountain base is much quieter. Although there are still hundreds of people here, they all stay in the laboratory in the hinterland of Camel Mountain, and there are only some guards outside.

Walking side by side with Ding Huiqiang on a path near the base, the guards have long imposed full martial law in the area one kilometer.

"To be honest, Li Mo, I really admire your courage."

Li Mo smiled and said, "It's not that we are bold, but that we are forced." He picked a leaf from the branch by the roadside and kneaded it in his hand and sighed, "If possible, who would like to fight?"

Ding Huiqiang was stunned and then smiled. Li Mo's words are right. If he hadn't been forced, who would be willing to fight? What the war brings is the shrinkage of normal economic development, the consumption of huge funds, the casualties and losses of countless people, these are still the direct effects, and many indirect effects will not appear one by one for a long time.

"This Persian Gulf conflict is very strange. Although it seems to be a plan that you have been brewing for a long time, only a few people know that with the 'Odyssey Dawn' operation planned by the West, you have been forced to the cliff. If you don't fight this war, you can only watch your strength be westward. It is eaten by the way. And in my opinion, the United States and the West are not ready to fight this war, otherwise the United States would not have hesitated for a period of time to participate in the war through a congressional vote, and would also limit the war to the Persian Gulf.

Throughout the foreign wars in the history of the United States, only four or five times have been officially discussed and voted by Congress, and other wars are basically decided in Washington.

After Obama came to power, he left a mess in the face of George W. Bush's foreign campaign. He is preparing to completely deny George W. Bush's foreign policy, such as the 'war on terror', in the intention of reducing direct military intervention. In addition, there are about the withdrawal of troops from Iraq, the last strategic changes in the war in Afghanistan, etc., but at this time, the war created by the Third OECD in the Persian Gulf occurred, and the U.S. political axe had to suspend the plan of "shrinking the front" and competed with the Third OECD in the Persian Gulf.

The American political axe is not ready to fight three wars at the same time, and it does not intend to do so, because the provocations and competition facing the United States in the world are not just these three wars. From politics to economy, from South America to Asia, Europe and even Africa, the situation of the United States, which is trying to face other countries and nations in the world, is not as good as seen outside.

And the Third OECD did not intend to launch a full-scale war with the United States. What they expect is to teach the Americans a 'a little lesson', let the West and the world understand the strength of the Third OECD, and to ensure that after World War I, the greedy capitalists in the West will not extend their greedy hands to the Third OECD.

"What I really don't understand is the attitude of the British." Li Mo suddenly said without a head.

"Britain?" Ding Huiqiang frowned as if recall. He said hesitantly, "I think Britain has not participated in time, which should be related to the current domestic political situation in Britain. Britain is about to hold a general election. The British Labour Party, which has been in power for 13 years, is very low in this general election, and the probability of the Conservative Party coming to power is very high. At this time, Britain The opposition party will not allow Britain to join a new war during this period. Unlike the previous Iraq war, this time we need to face the five countries of the Third OECD. The outcome of the war is still unclear. Although Britain has been striving to restore its former status as a great power in recent years, it does not mean that Britain must participate in a large-scale war with unclear situations and little to do with Britain. "

Li Mo thought for a moment and felt that what Ding Huiqiang said was reasonable, but it was definitely not all.

"That's right, do you have anything to say this time?" Li Mo is very dissatisfied with Japan's joining the United States and participating in the Persian Gulf conflict. He even wanted the 'God Eagle' fighter to go around Japan, but he knew that it would definitely not work, because once the Somali plane appeared in Japan, it would represent the expansion of the war. The United States may have a full-scale conflict with the Third OECD.

"There is no movement in the navy and air force in China. I think the destroyer I would have sent to the Gulf of Aden to participate."

Li Mo soon thought of the King Kong-class destroyer named Kirishima in his mind.

... After the United States announced its involvement in the Persian Gulf conflict, the third OECD's 'fly ban' mission was completely suspended. For a while, the situation over the Persian Gulf was reversed, and all U.S. fighter jets were on patrol.

During the

period, the Joint Air Force also sent fighter jets to try to break through the 'blocking line' set by the United States over the Persian Gulf channel, but without exception, they were expelled by American aircraft. This made the Western media, which had just suppressed the momentum because of the shooting down of the Qatari Mirage fighter, immediately fully advocated for the U.S. Air Force like a chicken blood injection.

On the 14th day, there was no exchange of fire between the two sides except for several confrontations over the Persian Gulf. This made many dark onlookers very dissatisfied. Some media also began to belittle the Third OECD Joint Air Force as a 'paper tiger', which is good-looking and useless. It can deal with the Qatari Air Force, but once faced with the U.S. Air Force, it shrank like a frosty eggplant.

Of course, such a situation is not what the Third OECD is willing to see. In fact, in the Persian Gulf Exercise Command, representatives of several member countries also delayed the operation time because of different opinions.

This difference mainly comes from the difference in attacking primary and secondary targets. Iran and Syria believe that since the United States is involved in the war, it will give the Americans a fierce one. The two countries advocate the first solution to the 'Eisenhower' aircraft carrier battle group in the Persian Gulf. As long as a U.S. aircraft carrier battle group is destroyed, this conflict can almost be concluded. It's tied. Unless the United States intends to expand the scale of the war.

Somalia and North Korea oppose this view. In the views of the two countries, it is more advantageous to eliminate hundreds of aircraft of the U.S. Air Force than to destroy the Eisenhower aircraft carrier battle group.

First of all, the air defense force of an aircraft carrier battle group is very strong. In addition to missiles, there are also carrier-based aircraft. If this goal is forcibly completed, it is not cost-effective to lose too much. Secondly, the aircraft carrier is a symbol and face for the United States. The Americans will not give up when sinking an aircraft carrier. I don't know how far this conflict will be fought. Therefore, the two countries do not want to attack the aircraft carrier battle group directly, but attack the Udeid air base within the scope of Qatar. The destruction of Udide, the largest U.S. air base in the Middle East, can also play the role of World War I, and it is not easy to cause a strong backlash from the United States.

As for the Libyan side, it even proposed to send Condor fighters to the Mediterranean to raid the French aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle, on the grounds that the overall strength of Charles de Gaulle is not as good as that of Eisenhower, and it can combat the enthusiasm of those who follow the American "little brothers" to participate in the war and reduce the pressure on the Third OECD.

The main reason for Libya's proposal is that although France did not directly carry out the 'Odyssey Dawn' operation against Libya, it openly provided arms and supplies to the Libyan opposition in the Mediterranean Sea, which caused the Libyan political axe army to gather again soon after several defeating the opposition forces.

Brigadier General Assad, deputy commander of the Somali Air Force, looked at the controversial headquarters. Several senior officials would not shout like shrews and scoundrels, but the staff below were noisy and frowned deeply.

"Guys, we can't go on like this. We have been quarreling for a day, but there is no result yet. There are voices of opposition from the outside world and within us. If we don't act, this plan may fail. Brigadier General Assad signaled everyone to be quiet and shouted, "I think, no matter what the plan is, the first thing we need to do is to eliminate the U.S. fighter jets over the Persian Gulf. We are going to have another beautiful air battle to improve our morale and take back the air power in the Persian Gulf. At that time, we are discussing where to attack first.

Brigadier General Assad means to take a step first. Because whether it is the main attack on the Udeid air base or the aircraft carrier battle group, it is inevitable to compete with the U.S. Air Force. If the U. Air Force cannot be defeated, whether it is the main attack on the Udeid Air Base or the aircraft carrier battle group, it can only be a joke.

The other parties agreed to Assad's suggestion after a little consideration. After reaching a consensus, it is easy to do more, mainly to make plans and seize air tying power in the Persian Gulf by the United States Air Force.

At present, the main opponents of the United Air Force are two U.S. fighter squadrons at Udeid Air Force Base and the ship-based aircraft of Eisenhower, plus the remaining air force of the Qatari Air Force.

Compared with the strength of the two sides, the United States is less in quantity, but the quality exceeds that of the Third Economic Cooperation Organization, and has the cooperation of other affiliated aircraft such as early warning aircraft, refueling aircraft and electronic combat aircraft. The number of the third OECD has advantages, but the models are basically weaker among the third-generation aircraft, and the quality of the pilots is not necessarily comparable to that of the U.S. Air Force, which is experienced in actual combat.

Even so, this stop must be played, and it must be won.

Several Iranian air bases adjacent to the Persian Gulf sounded combat alarms at the same time, and long-prepared fighters slipped across the runway and rose to the sky.

The first wave of 9 Su-27SS fighters and 18 MiG-29 fighters formed a fleet and roared off the Iranian continental shelf.
