Volume 10 Reshuffle Chapter 81 Early Death and Late Death

The special fleet suddenly changes course. [Full text reading] then enters a state of radio silence. Likang, the mind of the society is highly concerned.

Although "radio silence", that is, the termination of all radio activity, is the most primitive means of concealment, which was widely used in the Pacific War of World War II, and is not of great significance on the modern battlefield, but in some cases. Still has a high value.

In the case of the ubiquitous military reconnaissance satellites, it is not easy to search for a fleet in the vast sea.

Under normal circumstances, the intelligence services will determine one pound based on the whereabouts of the enemy fleet that they have already mastered. "Photo Zone." Then find the fleet on the photos taken by the military satellite, and then confirm the fleet's course, voyage and other important information according to the wake left by the battleship on the sea surface, and determine the next "photo area" from this information. "Because the fleet will maneuver in response to some potential threats during the voyage, it is necessary to dispatch more than two reconnaissance satellites, half an hour apart, or even an hour, to take pictures of the same area, and then conduct comparative analysis to determine the fleet's route. That is, even without taking into account the time required to analyze the photos, it will take an hour to determine the course of the fleet. If you include the time it takes to analyze the photos, it takes about two hours or more. It is precisely for this reason that most of the "maritime surveillance and reconnaissance satellites" of the Republic and the United States adopt large elliptical orbits. It can be seen from this that under normal circumstances, military reconnaissance satellites can only monitor fleets in normal navigation at most, and as long as the fleet increases its navigation degree and adjusts its course according to the satellite's trajectory, it can easily avoid reconnaissance satellites. At least one thing is guaranteed, that is, before the reconnaissance satellites reach the head of the fleet, the warships in the fleet will be able to use radar to detect the satellites, or receive a warning that the reconnaissance satellites have changed their orbits.

In fact, the main force of the search for the sea has never been reconnaissance satellites.

Whether it is the Republic, the United States, or other countries, as long as they have some ability, they all have a long-range patrol aircraft force of good scale. Although in the eyes of many people, long-range patrol aircraft are "anti-submarine patrol aircraft", but the two are not the same and should not be confused. Long-range patrol aircraft have the ability to search for submarines, but their main task is not to search for submarines. In combat use, the main task of long-range patrol aircraft is to find surface warships.

It's just that long-range patrol aircraft are not omnipotent.

The main drawback of a long-range patrol aircraft is not range, in fact, increasing it is a very simple thing. With the flying of power technology. In the case that the integrated quality of mobile power supply equipment has been reduced to less than a heart ton, it is not difficult to build an aircraft with "unlimited endurance" as long as you are willing to spend money. In a sense, the longer the range, the better, because as part of the combat system, the long-range patrol aircraft is inseparable from the support of the system, even if it has unlimited endurance, without the assistance of other combat platforms, it is impossible to play its due role. In other words, the main reason for limiting long-range patrol aircraft is the coordination force.

It can be seen that the search for the Japanese standard at sea is definitely a troublesome matter.

Before the decisive breakthrough of technological stunned. It is necessary to effectively coordinate all intelligence and reconnaissance units, including reconnaissance satellites, long-range patrol aircraft, submarines, surface warships, and intelligence personnel, and to harness the power of the whole.

There is no doubt that Argentina does not have such a strong strength.

Although the Argentine Navy's electric submarines grabbed the "tail" of the task force with a beautiful missile attack and forced the task force to reduce the degree of navigation, but under the threat of British submarines, the Argentine Navy's electric submarines did not pursue the task force, in fact, because the endurance of the electric submarines is limited, it is impossible to pursue the task force at a high level. In the middle of the night, when the whole world was paying attention to why the task force had changed its whereabouts, Pei Chengyi and Hua Jianfeng had to use the most primitive method, that is, radio triangulation, to determine the whereabouts of the task force. The results were much disappointing to the two, and the task force had terminated its radio activities.

At this point, the two could only speculate on the whereabouts of the task force.

It can be said that by this time, the Royal Navy task force was "doing what it was doing" more attention than "what it was going to do".

In fact, what the task force "is going to do." There is no suspense, and the task force will not have a second purpose other than to recover the Falkland Islands. There is a great deal of suspense about what the task force is "doing", because there are many means to recover the Falkland Islands, and how to act is closely related to the means chosen by the Royal Navy.

So, how exactly does the Royal Navy want to take concubines in the Falkland Islands?

In the eyes of ordinary people, this must be a "template war", that is, modeled on the war many years ago, the task force first defeated the Argentine air force, seized sea and air supremacy, and then bombed the Argentine army on the island, covering and supporting the marines to go ashore, and achieved the final victory.

In the opinion of the produce, the Royal Navy will not go the old way, because there is no old way.

In response to this problem, the news media around the world made a fuss on the evening of the month. Unlike in the past, the news media are not divided according to "geographical location", and the views of the Western news media are not uniform, nor are the views of the news media in neutral countries, nor are the views of the news media sympathetic to Argentina. This shrugging attitude shows that the news media have become disillusioned with the Royal Navy, and are only unwilling to admit that the Royal Navy has lost the war, influenced by Britain's international geography and glorious history. On the other hand, this also shows that the news media did not have much faith in the Agen Shiyu Bureau many years ago, the Agen Army Office lost the war after occupying Runqi.

The news media can discuss it to their heart's content, but Pei Chengyi is not so relaxed.

Day and night, after receiving a battle report from the Argentine Navy's submarine command, Pei Chengyi did not leave the command center, but stayed, and did not leave until dawn. What the staff officer on duty did not expect was that the army general went to the dining room for breakfast and rushed back.

Mu Yong doubted that Pei Chengyi had entered the "state"

On the morning of the 6th, after making a phone call to the Military Intelligence Bureau, hoping to mobilize more reconnaissance satellites to search for the task force that was heading south, Pei Chengyi contacted Yang Shaoyong, who was organizing work on the island, and asked the Afghan army to take control of the port as soon as possible. Get ready for the arriving Clippers.

Of course, Pei Chengyi did not forget the most important thing, which was to prepare Yang Shaoyong for the engineering troops.

For the third time, the Clippers sent not humanitarian supplies, nor war materials, but engineering materials and engineering equipment, as well as a large-scale engineering force.

According to Pei Chengyi's arrangement, the airfield in Port Argentina must be repaired before the task force attacks.

In fact, it was the task force that suddenly turned around and did not bomb Falklands in Japan that Pei Chengyi adjusted his deployment and acted according to the backup plan. The operation to repair the airport in Port Argentina is very crucial, and although Pei Chengyi does not expect to be able to deploy advanced fighter jets to the island, as long as he can deploy a few reconnaissance planes on the island, or provide assistance to the reconnaissance planes, it can have a huge impact on the impending naval battle. Not to mention anything else, what the Argentine Air Force lacks most is its long-range reconnaissance capability, and the deployment of reconnaissance planes on the island is tantamount to extending the reconnaissance radius several hundred kilometers to the east. According to Pei Chengyi's judgment, the task force will definitely not rashly enter the strike range of the Argentine Air Force. After all, several heavy fighters and hundreds of light fighters of the Argentine Air Force are not ornaments, nor are the advanced ammunition sold by the Republic to Argentina, as long as a surprise attack is successful, the task force will be severely damaged, and Britain will also lose the war. In the absence of capital adventures, even if the task force is commanded by Dudgway. He doesn't take risks easily. The best option for the task force is to stay between four and ten kilometres from the Argentine mainland. As a result, the fighters of the Argentine Air Force, without refueling in the air, could not pose a threat to the task force. If the strike radius of the fighter is extended by refueling in the air, the fighter of one sortie will not pass the field frame, and the Argentine Air Force will only receive tanker planes, and the tanker will refuel the Dart fighter at most at a time, and it will be equally difficult to threaten the task force. The Royal Navy's wishful thinking was simple: after the task force began to strike at the Albanian forces on the island, the Argentine Air Force would not sit idly by and would definitely take action, and the task force could use this opportunity to deplete the Argentine Air Force's combat forces and seize air and sea supremacy before the landing fleet and transport fleet arrived. In fact, the Argentine Air Force really doesn't have much of a choice, and if it doesn't manage to break through the opponent's trap, it is very likely that it will end up fighting it out.

To crack your opponent's tricks, you must first find your opponent.

For the Argentine Air Force, the weakness of reconnaissance is the biggest problem. If reconnaissance aircraft could not be deployed to the Falklands, the Argentine Air Force would have to use long-range heavy fighters to search for the task force. According to the most conservative estimates, it would be necessary to use a sharp edge to ensure that the task force is located, and to keep an eye on the task force until the attack fleet arrives. Because there are not many heavy fighters in the Argentine Air Force. After arranging a sufficient number of reconnaissance aircraft, there is no way to provide sufficient escort forces for light fighters on attack missions. As a result, even if the anti-ship missiles carried by the multiple attack planes are not considered, it is a question of whether the attack aircraft group composed of light fighters can successfully launch missiles under the interception of carrier-based fighters.

If reconnaissance planes could be deployed in Mabeiqi, the results would be completely different.

In the case that the range is shortened by about 1,000 kilometers, it is only necessary to pick up a heavy fighter, or a light fighter, to complete the reconnaissance mission. If heavy fighters are used, they can also provide escort cover for attack aircraft groups during reconnaissance missions. In other words, the Argentine Air Force can dispatch fighter jets from the mainland to carry out attack missions, and then arrange fighter jets to carry out escort missions. In this case, the attack group will be able to fire missiles at least before they are intercepted, and whether they can take out the task force is another matter.

On the afternoon of the 6th, the Clippers arrived at the port of Argentina.

Because the cargo could be unloaded at the pier, the loading and unloading operation was much faster, and a large amount of heavy equipment could be sailed directly onto the dock, and the first speedboats left the port of Argentina in the evening of the same day.

At night, there was an "accident"

A convoy of speedboats came under attack about a kilometer west of the Falklands, and all of them were hit by missiles. And sank before the arrival of maritime patrol aircraft and rescue ships. Because the attack came very suddenly. So it is impossible to determine whether the missile was fired by a submarine or by a warplane. Of course, judging by the actual situation, it is very good to hear that it was the American and British submarine ambushed nearby who directed the attack. It is a pity that all the skimming submarines sent by the Republic Navy to the South Atlantic are waiting for an opportunity in the waters east of the Falklands. The Argentine Navy's electric submarines are also in other directions, so it is impossible to determine whether there are American and British submarines near the route of the fast horn. In order to avoid more speedboats being attacked, Pei Chengyi adjusted his department again that night.

In the absence of submarines to mobilize, only the aviation anti-submarine forces can be strengthened. By dawn on the 7th, anti-submarine patrol aircraft of the Argentine Air Force dropped hundreds of tons of depth charges on the course of the clippers. This kind of "venting anger." Except for killing a lot of sea fish, the blow did not have much reality

Righteousness.

On the morning of the 7th, 4 anti-submarine frigates of the Argentine Navy arrived in Rio Gallegos.

This is the last anti-submarine frigate of the Argentine Navy, and according to Pei Chengyi's arrangement, the frigate left the port before the port after replenishing the electrical energy.

Because the maximum degree of the frigate was less than the fall knuckle and much slower than that of the speedboat, the 4 frigates did not perform the task of following the escort, but patrolled the course of the fleet. In fact, the anti-submarine effectiveness of surface warships is not high, according to the actual combat experience summed up by the submarine forces of the Republic Navy, as long as the submarine length is good enough, and there is no intention to exchange fire with surface warships, anti-submarine warships can be avoided in ten likelihood. It is important that in a one-on-one situation, it is difficult for submarines to sneak up on anti-submarine warfare ships that are operating alone. Because the Royal Navy only has wrinkled submarines operating near the Falklands, and according to the information provided by the Military Intelligence Agency, the additional submarines sent by the US Navy can only arrive after the old days at the earliest, so Pei Chengyi has reason to believe that the four anti-submarine frigates can drive away the British submarines that are ambushed near the convoy's route. In addition, the anti-submarine patrol aircraft accompanying the anti-submarine frigate will choose to retreat unless the captain of the British submarine has the spirit of not fearing death.

Retreat in the face of an unfavorable situation. It's not a shame for the dive micro-length.

With the anti-potential power, the Clippers came out again on the night of the 7th. Although it was about 2 planing hours later than scheduled, as long as the supplies were delivered to the island, it would not be difficult to repair the airport in Puerto Argentina.

This night, Pei Chengyi didn't sleep either.

It was not until the Argentine army occupied the Argentine port for a number of speedboats recently, and requisitioned many old speedboats to arrive at the Argentine port one after another on the morning of the 8th, that Pei Chengyi breathed a sigh of relief.

After contacting Yang Shaoyong and asking him to immediately organize the repair of the airport, Pei Chengyi went to Sleeping Rock.

When he returned to the command center in the afternoon, the staff officer delivered a piece of good news: the airport in Port Argentina had been repaired, and the first civil aircraft had taken off and were expected to arrive before the old point.

The air route is opened, and Pei Chengyi can finally relax.

Undoubtedly, this is definitely the worst news for the other person.

In the past few days, Duchway has also been closely monitoring his opponent's movements.

Compared with Pei Chengyi, the information obtained by Du Qiwei is much more accurate. Using a powerful network of military reconnaissance satellites, Duchway has a real-time grasp of the situation on the Falklands. As soon as the convoy entered the port of Argentina in the afternoon, Duchway immediately realized that Pei Chengyi must want to repair the airfield on the island. With the engineering equipment now delivered to the Falklands, Duchway's suspicions were confirmed. The problem is, there is no way to change the facts.

For him, the only option was to prevent the fleet from sending supplies to the Falklands again.

It was precisely because of this that there was a surprise attack on the night of the 6th. The Royal Navy's Swift-class attack submarine sinking a speedboat with an old anti-ship missile is not a waste or a cause for pride.

Of course, Du Qisheng knew that Pei Chengyi would never stop.

In fact, after receiving the report of the fourth and learning that the Argentine authorities had expanded the scope of expropriation and that a number of speedboats had joined the fleet, Du Qiwei knew that Pei Chengyi was ready to do a big job on the Falklands.

For Dugway, the best response was to bomb the Falklands, that is, to have the task force kill the Falklands directly.

However, before making this decision. Dudgway had to consider another issue. That is, whether this is a trap deliberately set by Pei Chengyi. There is enough intelligence to prove that the Navy of the Republic has already sent a second batch to the South Atlantic. At least the advanced "Killer Whale" class attack submarines. In the Indian War, a "killer whale" class attack submarine ended the Indian Navy's Western Fleet. Together, the Orca-class attack submarines would certainly be able to put an end to the Royal Navy's task force. Thinking of that painless missile attack, Du Qiwei had to believe that Pei Chengyi was trying to force the task force to reduce the task force, and he also wanted the task force to turn. More importantly, Du Qiwei has reason to believe that Pei Chengyi can judge the route taken by the task force after changing the battle plan, and it is possible to deploy submarines in advance and let the task force fall into the net. That is, if acting in a normal way. It's sure to fall into the trap.

Convinced of this idea, Dudgway decided to "wait and see".

At this glance, we can see the air supply line that has been restored again.

Although Dudgway is reluctant to admit it. But he had to believe that Pei Chengyi was pretending to be the real thing, and had forced the Royal Navy's task force into a corner. In other words, if the task force does not turn to kill the Falklands, the Afghan army will not panic the infrastructure of Gong on the island. waited for the task force to come and die; If the task force turns to the Falklands, it will have to face an all-out attack from the Argentine Air Force. There is no doubt that both left and right are dead.

There is only one difference, early death. Or die late!
