The battlefield in South Asia began to turn around, but the US African Command provoked Rwanda and Uganda to have another dispute with Tanzania. After an infantry brigade invaded Tanzania and was annihilated, under the organization of the US military, Rwanda, Uganda and Kenya formed a coalition to go south, preparing to use force to subvert the current Tanzanian regime. At the same time, the US African Command privately promised that 30% of the income from Tanzania's mineral resource development in the future will be divided by the above-mentioned three countries.

For Uganda and Rwanda, they have long been unable to see their close neighbors. Especially after China proposed the strategy of developing Africa, Tanzania felt changing with each passing day, and it was even more prominent in East Africa. Some people behind it supported going to Tanzania to salvage, and of course they were desperate for it.

For Kenya, they are the most industrially developed country in East Africa. They really hope to merge Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda into a unified federal state with the advantage of leading economic development, and they will dominate the development of a Great East African Community, so that they can form a major country with a population of over 100 million, rich resources, and important in Africa, and have the opportunity to be on par with African powers such as Egypt and South Africa.

Tanzania and Uganda have rich mineral resources, which can provide cheap and sufficient raw materials for the development of Kenya's manufacturing industry. So this is a very good opportunity for Kenya. In more than a decade, they have enthusiastically promoted the construction of the so-called East African Community. In history, Kenya and Tanzania were once ruled by the British and can be said to have far-reaching historical origins. Even now, everyone still writes one of the native languages ​​of English composition.

However, after Tanzania has reached a close semi-alliance relationship with China, Kenya has found that its dream of a Greater East African Community is getting farther and farther away. Therefore, when the US proposed to change the current regime in Tanzania by force, the top Kenyan leaders were moved. They hoped that through this military operation, they could realize their original dream in one fell swoop. Even if Uganda cannot be included in the East African Community, it would be an important step forward to achieve the combination of Kenya and Tanzania first.

Therefore, under the secret operation of the US side, the three governments signed a joint military agreement together. Of course, their public demand was to expel the People's Liberation Army from Africa and make Africa an African African. Of course, at this time, they automatically forgot that the existence of the US military, the Supreme Emperor, in their own territory.

The coalition forces of the three countries pieced together 30,000 troops, but the command fell into the hands of the US African Command, because in this war against the PLA's 86th Aircraft Infantry Brigade in Tanzania and the two newly-organized Aircraft Infantry Brigades in Tanzania, the main force must be the third mechanized infantry division of the US military in Africa. The three-national coalition forces in Rwanda, Uganda and Kenya are just a fig leaf that provokes the war.

Nairobi, US Army Africa Command.

"Tommy, Michelle, the PLA's air-ground integrated attack is extremely sharp. In the Atak area of ​​Pakistan, our 10th Mountain Division armed helicopter attack battalion suffered heavy losses when it was attacked by the Pakistani Destroyer drones. These unmanned fighters transformed using the PLA J-7 fighter jets are very flexible and are simply natural enemies of our armed helicopters and armor. In Africa, the PLA is equipped with 60 such drones, so your most important task is to ensure that the armored and air defense forces are together and not give PLA drones any chance."

Lieutenant General Reilly, commander of the US Army Africa Command, played the latest battlefield documentary from the headquarters, while talking to Major General Tommy Flick, the commander of the Third Mechanized Infantry Division, and Brigadier General Mitchell Mosley.

Because Major General Flick and Brigadier General Mosley are about to take the main force of the Third Mechanized Infantry Division, in order not to let them repeat the same mistakes, Lieutenant General Reilly specially asked for the latest battlefield documentary from the headquarters. The tragic situation of the 10th Mountain Division is the biggest setback encountered by the US military in the past half a century. Although there are some places where the US military command and cooperation are inappropriate, it is more because the US military does not have much opportunity and experience to face a close opponent, which leads to a very lack of combat experience in this area. Therefore, it is especially necessary to learn from the experience and lessons. On the Korean battlefield, the US military adopted a new strategy and achieved good results.

It’s just that Lieutenant General Reilly cannot replicate this tactic in Africa, because Lieutenant General Reilly will not have the Army’s ground-to-ground tactical missile battalion, nor the Navy’s Tomahawk cruise missile assist. He can only rely on the Third Mechanized Infantry Division and an F-35 squadron in his hand, as well as several old-fashioned infantry brigades from countries such as Rwanda, Uganda and Kenya.

Looking at the longbow Apache on the screen, one by one was shot down by the Pakistani Destroyer drones, Major General Frick and Brigadier General Mosley both looked solemn. Faced with such an attack method, they could not think of a better way, except using air defense missiles to shoot down enemy planes in advance.

"General, can't our air force completely control air supremacy in Africa?" Major General Frick asked in confusion. He knew that the best tactic to deal with these drones was to dispatch the air force to shoot them down in advance. It was obvious that the U.S. military had always been the leading one. There were two squadrons of air force fighters in Kenya, and there were more U.S. fighters in the further Bay Area. Major General Frick didn't understand why Lieutenant General Riley didn't arrange for the air force to deal with these drones, but instead handed the combat mission to his third division air defense combat unit.

"Sorry, Tommy, according to the strength of our current air force, fighting over Tanzania, our air force can only ensure that we need to fight the PLA air force and cannot provide you with more support." Lieutenant General Riley said bitterly, "The PLA's air force's strength has grown rapidly. Now they are our real enemy. Whether in Pakistan or the Korean Peninsula, our air force has not been able to obtain air supremacy to defeat the PLA air force."

"So, on the African battlefield, there will be no new fighter jets in the air force in the short term. Now, we all have to learn to fight without air supremacy."

Major General Frick was stunned. He obviously did not expect that the US military could not control the sky in Africa. He knew that in Africa, the PLA's air force had only two flight regiments and more than 60 fighter jets. Now that Pakistan is in combat, the PLA has no possibility of continuing to reinforce Africa. As for the 60 Destroyer drones, Major General Frick obviously did not regard them as real fighter jets.

"General, our air force can't send another squadron to us, so that we can completely destroy the PLA Air Force and greatly reduce the resistance to attack for our ground forces," Brigadier General Mosley interrupted. He saw that the tank troops of the 10th Mountain Division were completely defeated in the face of the Pakistani tanks, with an astonishing battle loss ratio. If the armed attack helicopters on his side could not obtain safe airspace to be put into combat, there was no hope of breaking through the PLA tank defense line with the ground armor alone.

"Michelle, fighter planes are needed everywhere now," Lieutenant General Reilly said with a wry smile. "If we hadn't started early enough, the two squadrons in our hands would have been sent to Asia to fight. You should know that the two major battlefields in Asia are much more important than ours. As you know, we have suffered heavy losses in the Pakistan battlefield. Now the main force of the Indians has been attracted by the People's Liberation Army to its northeastern region. It can be said that they need the Air Force more urgently than us to open up this unfavorable situation. Now our Air Force has at least 70% of its strength invested in all battlefields in Asia, and the air force left in the local and European aspects has reached its lowest level in history."

Major General Flick and Brigadier General Mosley looked at each other, their eyes full of horror. Although they knew that this strategy for China had invested a lot of resources in Asia, they did not expect that they had reached an unsustainable limit. It seemed that the Chinese were far more difficult than they thought.

For the first time in his life, Major General Flick had some concerns about his future combat missions. Although his opponent was only a mechanic and infantry brigade of the People's Liberation Army, with only more than 6,000 people, which was far inferior to the main division of more than 20,000 people under his command. However, the tragic encounter of the 10th Mountain Division shows that the People's Liberation Army has been transformed in equipment quality and its armor strength has surpassed the main equipment of the US military in terms of current service.

With the main equipment of two new Tanzanian brigades similar to the 86th Aircraft Brigade, Major General Frick has already regarded his future enemies as a lifelong enemy.

"Although we cannot control the situation in the air, we will also be very likely to suppress the attack of the People's Liberation Army's drone." Lieutenant General Riley saw that the two generals were a little depressed, and then exclaimed, "What's more, the Third Division itself has extremely strong air defense capabilities. As long as we pay attention to the coordinated combat of various troops during the attack, our strength will definitely help us win."

The purpose of Lieutenant General Reilly letting Frick and Mosley watch this documentary today is to enhance their awareness of the difficulties in future combat, not to undermine their confidence, so the topic changed.

"Yes, general, we have discovered the weakness of the PLA. Although their new tanks have strong combat capabilities, they are obviously inferior in other aspects except for unmanned fighter jets and tanks. Both armed helicopters and ground air defense capabilities must be much stronger.

I think when we attack, we should try to adopt air-ground coordination tactics as much as possible, mainly using our superior armed helicopters to carry out long-range strikes on the PLA armored forces, and then use tanks to attack its defense line after destroying its armored forces. In this way, we can play to our strengths and avoid weaknesses, and try to avoid tank battles with the PLA to finally achieve the final victory. For us, the real difficulty is how to provide reliable air defense protection for our armed helicopters." Brigadier General Mosley is worthy of being a staff officer. After watching the field documentary, he quickly found the weakness of the PLA from the Pakistani army.
