Chapter 769 Prologue
Seeing that the CIA and the US military insisted on disrupting China's African strategy in Africa, and set off one war after another, the People's Liberation Army stationed in Tanzania also dealt with counterattacks, making the Ka-Kurtu separatist armed forces increasingly stronger. As the importance of the African strategy becomes more and more prominent, the General Staff has also continuously strengthened its military deployment in Africa and sent a Gulf of Aden escort fleet composed of two 052C nuclear-powered destroyers, two large 081-class landing ships, and four 041-class nuclear-powered submarines. They will use the Seychelles PLA leased port as the home port to carry out missions in the Gulf of Aden, Arabian Sea and other waters.
However, if ground wars in Tanzania are in a tight position, more than 30 armed helicopters on two large-scale landing ships of Class 081 can be put into battle.
Not only that, the air force that was originally scheduled to be dispatched later, given the strange situation in Africa, the diplomatic department reached an agreement with Yemen after arduous negotiations, and persuaded Yemen to agree to the People's Liberation Army Air Force's request to refuel on Socosela Island and transit. In this way, the air force dispatched a J-10C main group and the Air Police-200 early warning aircraft to fly to Pakistan first, then pass through Socosela Island and then transfer to Tanzania.
The arrival of the Air Force J-10 Flight Regiment has changed the dilemma of the 86th Aircraft Infantry in Tanzania's lack of air force support. After all, even if the 86th Aircraft Infantry has strengthened the two Destroyer Special Aviation Battalions, it has only strengthened its ability to fight ground attacks and make up for the shortcomings of weak armored forces. However, it does not have the power to seize air supremacy in the air. Now the US military is ready to move in Africa, and the General Staff has to prepare for it.
But despite this, the General Staff did not think that the US military could not wait to take action. According to the information obtained by the General Staff, the US military has not prepared for large-scale wars in the short term. Now there is only one aircraft and infantry brigade near Tanzania, and the Air Force has not yet moved. According to the strategy of the US military's consistent operation by the Air Force, the US military will definitely not dispatch ground forces on a large scale without the Air Force intervening.
The two aircraft carrier formations in the Persian Gulf are unlikely to be drawn out and invested in Africa to fight in a big fight when the Persian war is so tense.
Therefore, the General Staff believes that as long as the Air Force is in place and cooperates with the 86th Aircraft Infantry Brigade, the US military's aircraft in Kenya will be unlikely to carry out large-scale military operations. In this way, the People's Liberation Army will still have a slight advantage in the military balance of the entire East Africa.
Sure enough, when the PLA air force entered Tanzania early like lightning, facing this sudden change, it immediately interrupted General Riley's new military deployment. Faced with the advantageous PLA and the US military had to delay the combat plan of Rwandan and Ugandans, because even if the US air force was not deployed in place, even if the US military ground forces seized the opportunity, the US ground forces did not dare to fight with the PLA at the risk of not having air supremacy.
This is too risky, but in this way, the US military was forced to speed up the pace of dispatching troops. They once again dispatched an F-35 squadron from Europe to the Saudi Air Force Base in the Persian Gulf day and night. After the F-35 squadron was in place, they then transferred a squadron of F-15E/F fighter jets from the Saudi base to Kenya. After this, two weeks passed.
In an increasingly tense atmosphere, China Mobile, which obtained the African S-WiNet network construction rights after fierce competition in China, took advantage of this opportunity to quietly build a 5G network in Tanzania. This is because the original communication foundation in Tanzania was too poor, and China's large-scale construction of Tanzania and development resources for communication is now unable to meet the needs of communications. More importantly, due to the lack of a nationwide reliable network, the newly built land-based radar warning network in Tanzania cannot be connected, which makes the military very dissatisfied.
Because since Duke emerged and entered the military industry, the series of weapons developed have basically relied heavily on the network environment.
It can be said that without network support, the coordinated combat between the 86th Aircraft Infantry Brigade and the newly adapted First Mechanized Infantry Brigade and the Second Mechanized Infantry Brigade will be greatly reduced, and the mode of concentrated firepower is not available for intelligent coordinated combat. Although the brigade-class Wingshound UAV serves as a network transmission relay, in the case of large-scale maneuver operational warfare, relying on Wingshound UAV relay is far from enough, let alone the land-based radar warning network information throughout Tanzania cannot be effectively integrated, forming an integrated air-ground combat system.
Therefore, when S-WiNet passed the national standard in China, the unexpected first phase of the project was placed on the national wireless network project in Tanzania. This 5G network with an initial design user capacity of 5 million users was quickly built with the cooperation of China Mobile and SAL. Due to the unique super coverage of S-WiNet, SAL completed network coverage across Tanzania with only more than a dozen base stations. SAL even used special planes and helicopters to transport them all at all costs.
Therefore, the construction cycle is particularly short. The construction speed of this large network was completed in more than a month. This construction speed is extremely fast. Of course, in addition to the base stations in the densely populated eastern region of Tanzan, which are linked with optical fiber and have the ability to transmit 100 mega data by individual users with designed capacity, the interconnection between base stations is mainly based on remote areas in the western region. The data transmission service of individual users is temporarily limited to within 1 megabyte, and the bandwidth is saved to give priority to supporting voice communication services and military demand support.
In order to better support the Kharto armed operations and communication needs of Kharto in the Kharto Kharto, China has also specially used several high-power base stations to cover the construction of the western border area of Tanzania. Along the network built between Tanzania and Kharto, the six provinces in the Kharto Kharto Kharto Kharto's Kharto Kharto Kharto are covered.
In this way, Tanzania and the eastern part of the Congo can use this network, making the connection between Ka-Kortu and Tanzania and the People's Liberation Army more convenient and secure. Considering the dual-use characteristics of military and civilians, SAL has specially used different encrypted communication methods for this network military user and ordinary user communication to ensure security. Compared with the 3G network and wireless telegram communications used by Ka-Kortu troops, the reliability of security and anti-interference is more than ten times more reliable.
In this way, the mobile-built network can be safely connected to the military terminal. After completion, the first mechanized infantry brigade and the second mechanized infantry brigade of the Tanzanian military will be completely connected with the 86th mechanized infantry brigade of the People's Liberation Army. The three mechanized infantry brigades mainly focus on the same firepower system, and can fully exert the power of joint combat under the theater joint combat tactical system. It can be said that after this network is completed, the power of the two newly adapted mechanized infantry brigades in Tanzania will be truly released, allowing the Tanzanian military's combat power to advance by leaps and bounds and quietly complete qualitative changes.
However, Lieutenant General Nick Zirand and James Reilly did not notice this quiet change in Tanzania and the PLA ground forces. Their attention is now focused on the newly added Air Force J-10C main flight regiment of the PLA. The current combat plan also revolves around how to solve the PLA's J-10C air regiment first. After the baptism of the Diaoyutai air battle and the setbacks over Persia, the US military will no longer dare to underestimate the PLA Air Force.
According to the internal assessment of the US military, the F-15E/F fighter jets cannot have an advantage in the J-10C single-to-single-on-one situation, and the gap becomes even bigger after forming a cluster. The PLA does not know what technology it has adopted. It is more sharp in terms of over-visual range strike than the US military's existing fire control radar. Their group fighting tactics are simply unpredictable. After entering a state of combat, a PLA fighter jet of a flying regiment can fire dozens or hundreds of medium-range bombs in an instant.
Now the US military has almost no solution to this tactic. It can only use the advantages of stealth fighters and use the advantages of the small radar launch surface as much as possible to approach China's third-generation aircraft to get the opportunity to strike first. Therefore, General Riley no longer simply counts on the F-15E/F squadron. The F-15E/F of a squadron is obviously a bit weak in the J-10C of a flight regiment of the People's Liberation Army. Therefore, in General Riley's new combat plan, in addition to preparing to dispatch the F-15E/F squadron, it is also required to directly dispatch an F-35 squadron from the Saudi Air Force Base to cooperate in combat. At that time, after flying over Ethiopia and refueling over Kenya, the F-35 fighter can fight with the F-15E/F of Kenya Air Base.
The PLA's J-10C Flight Reily believes that it is enough to form an overwhelming advantage in terms of quantity and quality. Although the PLA's clustered over-visual range strike power is powerful, the F-35 stealth fighter is not vegetarian. With its excellent stealth characteristics and super maneuverability, the PLA's over-visual range strike hit rate can greatly reduce the PLA's over-visual range strike hit rate. In the Diaoyutai air battle, the US military has verified this feature in actual combat.
After a series of troops deployed, the US military was ready again. Therefore, when the adaptation of Kakartu was effective and was preparing to counterattack South Kivu Province, the long-awaited Rwandan and Ugandan troops suddenly appeared in the eastern Kyrgyz Congo, and directly carried the first brigade of Kakartu and rushed to South Kivu Province. A war kicked off.
