It wasn't just Hua Jianfeng and the attack submarine that arrived at Faagen

On April Sunday, the commandos recruited by Huaan arrived in Buenos Aires as tourists and stayed in the most luxurious Cathay Pacific wine store in the city. 【】

Over the next few days, several other commandos arrived.

According to Huaan's arrangement, the commandos who were divided into thugs stayed in Buenos Aires for two to three days before leaving the Argentine capital for a secret military base in southern Argentina. In this way, the outside world will not notice these tourists who travel to the southern region of Argentina.

Except for the commandos. Pilots hired by the Argentine Air Force arrived in Buenos Aires on the old day of the month.

Because only for people. And it was much more important than the commandos, so the pilots stayed in the most luxurious five-star hotels, and it was not until April that they took a charter flight to Kochi Air Base on the coast of Rio Grande in Santa Cruz province, as arranged by the Argentine Air Force.

At this point, it can be said that everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.

For Argentina. The last pound of the war, the necessary condition is the modification of the fighter jet of the blade frame small thug.

I love ugliness and weeps

According to the promise made by the chief engineer in charge of the modification work, two training planes would be completed within Zhantian, and Xiaoqin was successfully lifted into the air. However, after accumulating enough modification experience, the modification of the flying frame will definitely be completed in April. To encourage engineering staff, of course. The Argentine Air Force has long established a reward system whereby engineers will receive bonuses ranging from blade to blade for all modified fighters as long as they are delivered on time.

It can be seen that Zhanzhuo is likely to start in the second half of the month, or in the beginning of tomorrow.

Of course, maybe it won't drag on for so long.

On April, Pei Chengyi learned the latest news from Hua Jianfeng.

According to the requirements of the Argentine Navy's Chief of Staff Teresescu, the three "Sailfish" class submarines under the command of Hua Jianfeng must be ready to leave the port before the day of the port and leave the base of the Piramides submarine on the night of the day and night. As planned, he went to the waters off the Falklands to assist the Argentine Navy in searching for British submarines that were likely to have reached the area.

Although Theresescu did not specify when the combat operation to attack the Falklands would begin, in Hua Jianfeng's words, the Argentine Navy seriously lacked anti-submarine wiring capabilities, and without the assistance of the Republic Navy, it would not have wanted to seize sea supremacy at all. Coming out of the Piramides submarine base, the wrinkled submarine moved forward in ideal silence. Within hours of crashing, you can reach the vicinity of the Falklands, and then spend the day searching the sea area where the British submarine is most likely to ambush. It can be inferred that the Argentine military is likely to advance the time of the offensive from the end of April to the day of April.

At the beginning, Pei Chengyi didn't believe that the Afghan army would launch a surprise attack in advance.

Although the seizure of sea supremacy has little to do with the raid on the Falklands, even if the British submarines ambushed near the Falklands are not cleared, the Argentine army can capture the Falklands by air, but what happened in the next few days made Pei Chengyi have to believe it. The Afghan army has been waiting very impatiently.

On April Day, in addition to the rush of pilots to Kochi Air Base, a refrigerated transport ship called the Harvest entered the port of Blanca, the second largest in Argentina.

The arrival of the "Harvest" did not attract the attention of any intelligence agencies.

Argentina has one of the most desirable fishing grounds in the world, and the Port of Blanca is the second largest port in Argentina and the first largest export port for aquatic products in terms of annual throughput, with millions of tons of aquatic products being exported from the port to the rest of the world every year. The "Harvest" is a large refrigerated ship with a heavy load of stew, and its main business is to transport all kinds of fresh cargo. It has been sailing for the past years on the routes of Puerto Blanca to several countries. It is quite normal for the "Harvest" to enter Puerto Blanca at this time. It will not attract the attention of any intelligence agencies at all.

Of course, this time the "Harvest" did not come empty.

In fact, the Harvest never comes empty. In order to reduce operating costs, when the Harvest takes seafood from Puerto Blanca, it also takes advantage of refrigerated carriers to carry goods that other ships can't, such as valuable medicines that are allowed to be refrigerated, or chemicals that need to be stored at low temperatures.

It's different from what it used to be. The Harvest was not transporting pharmaceuticals or chemicals.

After entering Puerto Blanca. The Harvest approached the slogan dock, which had rarely been visited before, and it was not until night fell that the crew began to unload the cargo.

This strange act alone proves that the Harvest was carrying an extraordinary amount of valuable cargo

Needless to guess, the cargo compartment of the "Harvest" is filled with vertigraphic transport aircraft, to be precise, the parts of the vertical take-off and landing transport aircraft loaded in pallets or containers.

In fact, the "Harvest" has always been a spy ship of the Military Intelligence Agency, and has been engaged in espionage activities for a long time, just to cover up the espionage activities and make the "side business" so that other intelligence agencies do not know its true face. About a day before entering the port of Blanca, the "Harvest" left the port of Karachi under the cover of night. In order to hide the sights and ears, the Military Intelligence Agency did not let the "Harvest" go to the ports of the republic. The "Harvest" was not allowed to go directly to Puerto Blanca, but, as usual, made a short stop at several ports and made a little trade along the way.

Of course, this matter was not hidden from Pei Chengyi.

According to information provided by the Military Intelligence Agency, the Gazer Chau tilt-rotor aircraft delivered by the "Harvest" will be assembled within three days. And handed over to the Agen Stove Immortal Army. Because the Argentine Army had already contacted Huaan on the same day and asked the assault force that had already arrived in Argentina to arrive at the provincial capital of Santa Cruz in Río Gallegos before the old Rili point, the Military Intelligence Bureau concluded that the Argentine Army would attack the Falklands on the 2o. If nothing else. The Afghan army will be put into combat readiness at night. After the start of the assault operation, the initial war mobilization was carried out, and after the assault force captured the port of Zaigentin and the port of Stanley airport, the mobilized civilian aircraft were used to transport other combat units and war materials to the Falklands. Because the Argentine Navy has already asked the Republican submarines to go to the battlefield in concert, there is enough reason to believe that the Argentine army will transport armored troops and heavy equipment to the Falklands by sea after the situation has stabilized, that is, after the assault force and the advance force have stabilized their positions. If the combat operation goes well. The Afghan army will take the Falklands before Britain can react, that is, within half a month.

No doubt. Pei Chengyi is not so optimistic

In fact, the MIA is not so optimistic.

When reporting the relevant situation, the Military Intelligence Agency did not forget to warn Pei Chengyi that the British Navy was already in action. The second ship of the "Revenge" aircraft carrier "George V" class, which was previously participating in joint exercises in the Mediterranean, passed through the Strait of Gibraltar on the last month. Expected to arrive in Portsmouth in April; The overhaul of the third ship of the "George V" class of the aircraft carrier "Ark Royal" has been completed ahead of schedule, and it is expected to return to combat sequence before the end of the moon; The aircraft carrier USS George V, which remained on the mainland, has returned to Portsmouth and is undergoing a complete overhaul, as it is less than three months after the last overhaul, so the aircraft carrier is still in combat readiness. In addition to aircraft carrier battle groups, the submarine forces of the British Navy have also been brought to combat readiness. Among the attack submarines, only 4 were in the harbor, and the duty rate was as high as jumping, far exceeding the normal state of Rui; According to the analysis of the Military Intelligence Bureau, among the submarines that went to sea, some of them must have been broken to cover the strategic submarines, and some were broken in the "Revenge" aircraft carrier battle group, so at least four attack submarines have already gone south and even reached the waters off the Falklands.

Pei Chengyi did not doubt the analysis of the Military Intelligence Agency, and in his opinion, it was very likely that the British submarine heading south would be moved.

If this is the case, even if the Argentine army can capture the airport in Port Argentina by surprise attack and deliver war materials to the landing force by air before the arrival of the British expeditionary fleet to replenish the combat losses, the Argentine Navy's anti-submarine capability alone will certainly not be able to provide security for the transport fleet bound for the Falklands, and it will be difficult to project more combat forces to the Falklands by sea.

If the Afghan army wants to attack the island of Ranma, it must open up sea routes, and the sooner the better.

As an army general, Pei Chengyi knows very well in his heart, relying on a few civil aviation planes that are temporarily mobilized. It will be difficult for the Argentine Army to make a difference in the ground battles on the Falklands. If the British army was like the blade it was many years ago. If the vigilance is not raised, it may be possible to break the fighting spirit of the British army through a surprise attack and force the troops stationed on the island to surrender. The real problem is that the British army has long been mentally prepared for battle, and the Afghan army must be prepared to annihilate more than four British marines. In other words, with only a limited airlift force, it is impossible for the Afghan army to completely seize the Falklands within the old days. Judging from Britain's preparations for war, if we do not wait for the aircraft carrier "Ark Royal," which has just completed overhaul, the expeditionary fleet with the aircraft carriers "George V" and "Revenge" as the core will be able to leave Portsmouth within hours after the outbreak of war and reach the South Atlantic within a few days. Even if the Ark Royal had departed together, or had slowed down its voyage and rendezvous with the Ark Royal, the British expeditionary fleet would have reached the South Atlantic around the end of the month. In other words, the Afghan army has at most Litian's "advantage." "If you can't annihilate the British troops on the island in these 2o days, you will inevitably lose this war.

correct

Does the Afghan Army have this strength?

No deduction required. Pei Chengyi has enough reason to believe that unless foreign aid is provided, and it is the most critical aid. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the Afghan army to capture the Falklands within Litian.

The so-called key assistance is the three attack submarines commanded by Hua Jianfeng.

Only by eliminating the British submarines lurking in the waters of the Falklands, opening up sea routes, and allowing the convoy carrying combat troops and war supplies to arrive at the port of Argentina smoothly, can we seize the Falklands within the predetermined time, and then wait for the British expeditionary fleet to take the initiative to send them to death.

After figuring this out, Pei Chengyi directly contacted Li Cunxun.

So far. It's time to bargain with the Argentine authorities.

I love ugliness and weeps

What surprised Pei Chengyi slightly was that before he figured it out, Li Cunxun had already contacted Hua Jianfeng again, asking the future naval commander to absolutely obey Pei Chengyi's command, and without Pei Chengyi's order, the submarine that arrived in the theater of operations must not participate in combat operations, let alone take the initiative to attack British submarines. Of course, in order to avoid a stalemate, Li Cunxun did not do too much. Let Hua Jianfeng follow the requirements of the Argentine Navy. Sent 3 submarines.

It was exactly like this, when Pei Chengyi was about to take this opportunity to let Ah Jun know who the boss was, Hua Jianfeng took the initiative to come to the door.

"Lao Li has already told me, I came this time, and I will go to you for instructions."

"I can't talk about it, we'll discuss it."

"General Pei. Don't be polite to me. Hua Kefeng smiled and said, "Although I am not your old subordinate, I will obey your command in the Indian war. What to do now, you just tell me.

Besides. I've only been here for a few days, so I don't know much about the situation here, and I can't discuss anything."

"That's the case. You're welcome. "Pei Chengshuang... smiled and said, "The submarine has left the port" "It's out, but without my orders, the three submarines will definitely not participate in the bull war." ”

Pei Chengyi pondered for a while and said, "How do you give a combat order?" ”

"This is completely reassuring, the Military Intelligence Bureau has established a secret line for me, and has also arranged special personnel, and all orders must be returned to the submarine command and then issued to the combat submarine."

Pei Chengyi nodded and said, "In your opinion, if we watch from the wall, what will be the result?" ”

"Sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight?" Hua Jianfeng frowned slightly, and said, "It's hard to say anything else, let's take the submarine battle curtain to say, without our support, those submarines of the Argentine Navy may be difficult to win in the South Atlantic, and they will definitely become the target of British submarines." ”

Pei Chengyi picked up the teacup and didn't rush to speak.

I love my heart

"As you know, the Argentine Navy has sixteen submarines of two classes, and only eight of them are "Sailfish, which are relatively advanced, and the other eight are backward." According to the information already available, eight ships are strong. Only four of them went to sea, and the other four were still in the submarine base, and they could only be on the battlefield in early May at the earliest. It is almost impossible to blockade the Falklands with four submarines and take out the British submarines lurking nearby, otherwise the Argentine Navy would not have turned to us for help. What's more. The submarines of the British Navy were much more advanced. Hua Jianfeng lit a cigarette and said, "According to the information I have, six of the twelve submarines of the British Navy are "astute and not worried." Only six "fast." class, especially the four ships of the second batch, built according to the new standards, are worth considering. Very importantly, the Military Intelligence Agency has confirmed that the four "fast mouths, class have all left the port." And it's likely all south. Because the situation has been tense for several months, there is enough reason to believe that the four most advanced submarines of the British Navy have reached the waters off the Falklands. ”

ten thousand

Pei Chengyi nodded slightly, and when he saw Hua Jianfeng's unfinished appearance, he continued to remain silent.

"Four of the world's most advanced hybrid attack submarines are definitely not to be underestimated." Hua Jianfeng took a few puffs of cigarette and continued, "You must know that the British Navy used only one submarine to make the Argentine Navy a shrunken turtle. The mother is undoubted. If the British Navy can regain its glory, even if the Argentine Navy does not have a second "Admiral Belgrano." cruiser, also with a lot of high-value targets. If nothing else, as long as you can sink a few large transports on the route to the Falklands. It would effectively prevent Argentina from taking advantage of the time advantage in the early stages of the war. In my understanding. The Argentine Navy is well aware of this and is well aware of the importance of sea supremacy. The problem is that without the help we provide, it will be very difficult for the Argentine Navy to win. ”

"As you say, the Argentine Navy has recognized the important value of our three submarines?"

Hua Jianfeng pursed his lips and said with a wry smile: "If that's the case, you won't waste so much precious time in Argentina." ”

Pei Chengyi was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly.

"General Pei, there are some things that I don't know whether to say or not."

"Just say anything, there are no outsiders here."

Hua Jianfeng nodded and said: "Although I have only been here for a few days and I don't know the attitude of the Argentine authorities very well, in my opinion, since the Argentine authorities treat us as outsiders who come and go at a moment's notice, there is no need for us to work hard for Argentina like defending the motherland." Of course, you are in a different situation than I am, after all, I am not a consultant, I have not taken Argentine money, so I don't have to work for Argentina. It's just that in my opinion, whether it's cooperation or hiring, you have to show sincerity. What's the point of not even having sincerity? ”

Pei Chengyi shook his head with a smile and said, "Anyway, take people's money and eliminate disasters for others." ”

Hua Jianfeng also shook his head with a smile and extinguished the cigarette in his hand.

"There are many ways to do it, but we have to know what we need to do and what we need to do.

Pei Chengyi paused slightly and said. "If you don't come, I'll look for you."

"Looking for me?"

Pei Chengyi nodded and said, "As you said at the beginning, we don't have to work for Argentina, but as Argentina's military advisers." I have to look out for the interests of Argentina. War was imminent, but the Argentine military was carried away by the exploding strength. If my judgment is correct, the assault force will be able to successfully capture the airport in Port Argentina, and even capture the port, and with the help of mobilized civil aviation forces, the Afghan army will be able to provide the assault force with the necessary combat materials. But in order to annihilate all the British forces on the island, it was not enough to rely on assault forces alone, and it was necessary to devote more combat forces, especially decisive armored forces. In other words, whether the sea route can be opened in time will determine the final ownership of the Falklands. Like your analysis, I also think that the Afghan army does not have this strength. ”

"You mean, we should"

"To take the" covert operation "is not to do nothing, nor to do everything, but not to get involved in the battle. ”

Hua Jianfeng frowned slightly, and then understood what Pei Chengyi meant. As a general from the submarine force, Hua Jianfeng is very clear about the meaning of "secret operation", and he is also very aware of how to use special means to achieve the ultimate goal under special circumstances.

"How to do it, I will contact you in time."

"No problem, I'm always at your disposal"

Seeing that Hua Jianfeng was a person who could understand everything, Pei Chengyi didn't say anything more.

Don't suffer a little, those aristocratic Argentine generals really don't know how thick the sky is.
