On the same day, two US military bases were attacked one after another. Please search (product % book ¥¥ net)!
The fastest updated novel The terrorists who attacked the base are very weird, they do not kill and injure a large number of people, but they are desperately trying to destroy all kinds of military facilities and equipment.
Two oil depots of the Navy, a command post for UAV reconnaissance outposts.
If these can still be bearable, but the loss of the Mombasa base in the future will make the Ministry of Defense jump on its feet.
Four F22 fighter jets and a base control tower, as well as a newly deployed land-based phased array radar.
These are high-value devices.
Combined with the rest of the damaged facilities, the damage caused by these two attacks may already be in the hundreds of millions.
Even the wealthy US ** side can't stand it, and what embarrasses them even more is that this is a blatant slap in the face.
The dignified US military, which often claims to be unparalleled in the world in military strength and flexes its muscles to other countries at every turn, was beaten this time by a mysterious guerrilla force with no name unknown, and was beaten miserably.
What is this not a slap in the face?
!
The U.S. Department of Defense and Africa Command urgently convened a military meeting to discuss the two attacks.
As is customary, they should hold a press conference to denounce such terrorist crimes.
But it's a bit tricky, because a week ago, they had announced that the U.S. military had not set up new military bases in Africa.
Only a week later, he changed his story to say that two US military bases in Africa had been attacked.
Even the most seasoned military spokesman did not have such a face.
What's more, this fact is too embarrassing, and I still don't know who did it, so it's useless to say it.
Therefore, there are all kinds of speculations within the US military about this matter, and all kinds of opinions are not unanimous.
Brigadier General Lannis is also under pressure from the military's top brass because there is a suspicion that the incident is related to the last time the Black Isle mercenaries were rescued.
Although it is not known whether it was done by these mercenaries, the higher-ups will not care about this, they just, without asking for reasons.
The matter was settled within a certain time, and Brigadier Lannis was depressed to death.
He knew that the details of the two attacks were identical, and that they were certainly the work of the same people.
But on the same day, they attacked the US military bases non-stop and caused a lot of losses, and it is really rare to be crazy to this level.
The strange thing is that these people did not cause a large number of casualties, but they did their best to destroy the facility.
It doesn't seem like a terrorist either.
The average extremist terrorist, who is not interested in destroying facilities, likes to kill and injure people to show their prowess.
But these people are different, but they are more hateful than the killers.
Because they caught the biggest sore foot of the US military.
As the world's largest military strength, the U.S. military's biggest trouble is money.
They are a very money-burning army.
Every year, the U.S. Congress passes a National Defense Authorization Act to limit excessive military spending.
The US military has money everywhere, and the maintenance of bases and facilities is the big one.
Such a base is often attacked, which can cause a lot of trouble, and it takes money to rebuild and maintain.
Money has to be approved by Congress, and those people in Congress are the real masters.
Congress, no matter what practical difficulties your military has, will only make you cut spending.
Even the president has no money, and it is not uncommon for the government to shut down.
In this night's attack, hundreds of millions of US military assets were lost, and the key is that it has to continue to rebuild and spend a lot of money.
That's what the military bigwigs are annoyed about.
Although the total military budget of the United States in fiscal year 2016 exceeded $770 billion, life is still tight for such a huge warplane.
Often suffer inexplicable losses like this, so what's the point?
Examine!
It must be strictly investigated!
!
A word from the military bigwigs, Lannis has to do what they want.
Lannis was really a little worried, he obviously felt that this matter was probably done by those mercenaries of the Black Isle Company, but he didn't have any clues.
These private military companies have been operating in Africa for a long time and have outlets everywhere.
And that place is relatively closed and chaotic, where do you go to find these people?
What shocked him the most was that the Jamame base was a newly built secret base, and he didn't know how these people got the news, but they found it so accurately, and blew up almost all the important facilities with a precise method.
Is this just a coincidence?
While Lannis was pondering, there was a knock on the outside door.
"Come in. ”
Lannis said in a deep voice.
White White walked in with a smile, "General, are you looking for me?"
"Yes. ”
"I remember there was an agreement between us that you had to help me deal with the people of the Black Isle. ”
"Of course. ”
White smiled and said, "But isn't the Black Isle Company finished?"
"It's not over!"
Lannis snapped, "These mad dogs bite people in Africa right now, and they attacked our base twice in one day yesterday! How do you explain that?"
"Oh, and that like that?"
White Glove White shrugged, "I'm sorry about that. But I don't think it's necessary to explain too much. You asked us to deal with the people of the Black Island Company, and you didn't ask us to give all the US military bases, if you provide the exact time and place of their activities, I will immediately have someone organize their assassination. ”
"What else do I need you to do if I can find them?"
Lannis sneered.
"Then there is no way, if they deliberately dodge, it will be difficult for us to find them. ”
Whiteglove shrugged.
"Then you'd better hurry. During this time, they should be active in Somalia and Kenya. ”
Lannis said lightly, "them off, and you'll get more benefits next year than you do now, I can guarantee it." ”
"Sounds good. But how do you know that they are in Somalia and Kenya because of the attack on your base?"
White White smiled slightly.
Lannis was actually slightly startled, and secretly said in his heart: This guy is so well-informed, he actually knew about it so quickly.
”
But the expression is still quiet, "What's the matter, isn't all this enough?"
”
"Enough, of course.
However, this can only lock down where they were at the time of the incident, but not prove that they are still there.
”
White Glove smiled bitterly and said, "Based on my understanding of them, they should have run away long ago after attacking the base."
”
"Why?
”
Lannis frowned.
"First of all, although the two bases are close to each other, it takes time to come and go.
The fact that they were able to complete two attacks in such a quick time shows that they had at least helicopter support.
And after doing such a big thing, they don't think about the consequences.
I will definitely choose to take a break for a while.
”
White Gloves said coldly.
