Piaotian Literature In fact, Ye Kai did not go to the Military Commission, and time did not allow him to be so ostentatious.
He secretly met with the commander of the East China Sea Fleet, Rear Admiral Shan Liren, in Mingzhu City to discuss smuggling strategic materials back to Russia.
Major General Shan Liren is an officer of the Young Zhuang faction and a direct descendant of the old Ye family, so the reception location is in Ye Ziping's office. It is more in line with the procedures for Ye Ziping, a member of the Central Political Bureau, to announce the Military Commission's tasks instead of Comrade Jiang Cheng.
"Comrade Liren, this matter is of great importance and must be properly arranged." Ziping explained again and again.
"Please rest assured, Commander, the East China Sea Fleet is guaranteed to complete its mission!" Rear Admiral Shan Liren promised with a serious expression. His heart was also full of excitement. He didn't expect that this time he would play so big and go to Russia to pick up strategic supplies, and he was still
A covert operation.
However, this operation is indeed challenging enough. It will take almost a month from departure to destination. If everything goes well, it will take another month to come back. With a fleet wandering outside for such a long time, supply is a problem.
, funding is a problem, and the test of personnel is also a problem.
Although Shan Liren did not know exactly what ship he was going to pick up this time, judging from the cautious attitude above, it should be something very important, otherwise the Military Commission would not have given the order directly, and it would have been so mysterious.
"We will use the pretext of visiting Russia externally, and there will be no problems." Ye Ziping said to Shan Liren, "After arriving at the destination, all actions will follow Comrade Ye Kai's orders. He is the special envoy for this operation."
"Yes." Shan Liren nodded and replied.
"The risk this time should not be big, but for the sake of safety, comrades must be required according to wartime standards. Regarding the issue of supplies along the way, the relevant parties have already made arrangements." Ye Kai said to Shan Liren, "Your
It exists. In fact, it is just a strategic deterrent to ensure that we can successfully transport things back to the country. Of course, if someone dares to obstruct it, all extreme measures can be considered, and the country will cooperate closely."
"Yes, Comrade Special Envoy." Although Shan Liren knew that Ye Kai was Ye Ziping's son, on this occasion, he couldn't find a suitable title for the moment, so he simply called him Comrade Special Envoy.
In fact, when a fleet sails on a long voyage, material support is the first priority, especially fuel, fresh water, food supplements, etc., which also poses a relatively large challenge to the physical strength and endurance of the combatants.
In fact, such a long journey has not happened several times since the founding of the Navy.
Simply speaking from the perspective of training the team, this is also a rare opportunity. You must know that military expenditures are tight now, especially the navy, the most expensive service, and the possibility of getting actual combat opportunities is even smaller. They usually train offshore.
That’s it. When traveling far away, on the one hand, you have to consider the international political impact. On the other hand, the cost is too high.
Ye Kai smiled and said, "You will leave soon, I am on the other side. I will fly to Moscow to do some things first, and then just keep in touch."
"Yes." Major General Shan Liren nodded.
However, he felt that this matter seemed a bit strange. If it was just to pick up things, everyone would just go there together. But judging from Ye Kai's performance, there should be some inside story about this matter, but as a soldier,
It is a bounden duty to obey orders. He will never ask questions that should not be asked.
"Be prepared and set off as soon as possible. All required resources will be allocated in advance. If you encounter any problems before departure, please report to me directly." Ye Ziping said.
"Yes, Chief." After Major General Shan Liren responded, he asked, "Has the Southeast Military Region received the notification?"
The commander of the Southeast Military Region is none other than General Ye Ziping, Ye Ziping's eldest brother.
"He has already received the notice, you don't need to pay attention to it," Ye Ziping said.
After Rear Admiral Shan Liren received the mission, he hurried back to the fleet. He needed to make some preliminary preparations to form a task force, including two guided missile destroyers, four frigates, and two with long-range nuclear strike capabilities.
A huge fleet including conventionally powered submarines.
In fact, in terms of distance, it is more convenient to directly dispatch the South China Sea Fleet, but this time the East China Sea Fleet was dispatched to perform the mission, but there was also some consideration.
The earliest strategic goal of the East China Sea Fleet was to contain Okinawa and the Ryukyu Islands, and to contain part of the enemy's forces. At the same time, the East China Sea Fleet was responsible for the mission of destroying Japan's Pacific routes. From a geographical point of view, once the East China Sea Fleet blocks the East China Sea, it will
At the same time, it also blocked the entire Yellow Sea, becoming the first line of defense of the North Sea Fleet and the first island coastal defense in the entire North and East China regions. More importantly, it protected the maritime transportation lines, contained the U.S. and Japanese forces in Okinawa, and contained the invasion.
The main configuration of the East China Sea Fleet is also relatively complex. It is mainly composed of submarines, missile speedboats, and some large surface ships. It is also equipped with naval forces and air protection to form a containment, deterrence, and containment force over the vast waters of the East China Sea.
As far as conventional submarines are concerned, the East China Sea Fleet is the strongest submarine fleet among the three major fleets.
Strengthening the submarine strength of the East China Sea Fleet is related to the characteristics of the waters of the Taiwan Strait within the East China Sea Fleet's defense area.
Because the Taiwan Strait is a narrow area and is covered by land artillery and short-range missiles, it is inconvenient for surface ship activities. The sea area is a shallow water area with high underwater background noise, which is not conducive to anti-submarine warfare and facilitates submarine activities.
It is for this reason that the superiors intend to hand over the retrieved nuclear submarines to the East China Sea Fleet for use, which can be regarded as supplementing its strength.
Of course, the most important point is that Ye Kai proposed to bring back a large number of the other party's technical personnel, which attracted the attention of the senior management. Ye Kai was willing to spend money to support these people, so naturally no one would object. Moreover, the senior management is now internally discussing
Ye Kai discussed the proposal on privatizing military industrial enterprises, and the matter is likely to be passed.
Once Ye Kai makes achievements in this area, his first choice partner will be the East China Sea Fleet, because the East China Sea Fleet is not only under the direct jurisdiction of his uncle Ye Ye Jian, but it is also the fleet most suitable for submarine operations.
After Shan Liren left, Ye Ziping asked Ye Kaidao with concern, "Are you sure of it this time?"
In fact, Ye Ziping did not agree with Ye Kai's risky approach. The risk was too great.
You know, this kind of thing is equivalent to pulling out a tooth from the tiger's mouth. If you are not careful, you will fall into a situation where everything is lost. Once the contact fails, it is impossible for the country to admit this kind of thing, and the relationship between the two countries may also suffer some consequences.
change.
As far as Russia is concerned at the moment, there really is not much favorable impression of the Republic. Most people hate the word socialism and have a lot of negative impressions of the Republic that adheres to the socialist path.
Therefore, Ye Kai's trip to Russia this time to plan such a big event was extremely dangerous.
"Actually, there aren't many risks. I naturally have a way to protect myself." Ye Kai showed no fear about this. In fact, the reason why he was willing to take risks personally was because he already had a relatively high degree of confidence.
This can be done.
Major Butt's ability to act is indeed very strong. With the help of his father-in-law, KGB General Dyanov, and a large amount of US dollars, Major Butt has corrupted a considerable number of high-level former Soviet military generals.
The generals who were dazzled by the US dollar had already become the enthusiastic partners of Major But. They even dared to sell nuclear bombs to him. What else could they not do?
Moreover, in fact, even the military did not know what happened this time. They only thought that Major Butt just wanted to get some titanium alloy scrap and sell it to make money. This was not a big deal.
Today's Russia is suffering from internal and external troubles. Everyone's stomach is full. How can they care about the old equipment that has been sealed in the weapons arsenal for a long time?
As for the shipyard, it has stopped working a long time ago. The workers are living on the edge of starvation. Only a few people know the secrets of the factory, and these people have long been conquered by Major But's dollars.
"Anyway, you have to be careful about everything. Russia is no better than at home." Ye Ziping knew that his son was very determined, so he didn't say anything else. After all, this matter had been approved by the top brass of the Military Commission and Comrade Fang He.
The leader, Comrade Jiang Cheng, also nodded in support, and even Mr. Ye could not object.
In fact, Mr. Ye also supported Ye Kai's plan and felt that he could try his luck on this matter.
Three days later, a fleet of East China Sea Fleet ships left the port. At the same time, the State Council released a message that at the invitation of the Russian military, the East China Sea Fleet fleet would visit Russia and would also conduct friendly visits to some countries along the way.
The U.S. Pentagon has expressed concern over the comparison and believes that the East China Sea Fleet's voyage will test the strength of the mainland's navy.
The British Intelligence Department also took active action to spy on inside information about the East China Sea Fleet's visit. There was even a group of secret spies in Hong Kong who were actively operating, trying to obtain detailed information on the matter through the channels of some of the mainland officials' children in Hong Kong.
All in all, the entire international situation has undergone some changes because of this incident.
Shortly after the East China Sea Fleet set off, Ye Kai also quietly set off and took a direct flight from Mingzhu to Moscow.
This time he went there and was expected to stay for more than a month. He had to wait for the East China Sea Fleet to pick up everything before he could return with confidence. During this period, he also had to deal with many things, not just this.
There is also the issue of smuggling a nuclear submarine, and at the same time, he is planning to lay out a plan for economic plunder in Russia.
The situation in Russia is now turbulent. Although the ruble is still holding on, it probably won't last long. It's the right time to take action against them.
After all, because of the purchase of nuclear submarines, Ye Kai spent a lot of money and had to find a way to make up for it. He had to make the wool come out of the sheep. (To be continued)
