Volume 3 The Storms of the East China Sea Chapter 37 Tactical Planning (Five Watches Pleading for a Monthly Pass)
For politicians, there is no good or evil between war and peace, it is just a matter of solving problems
For military personnel, there is no difference between war and peace, but only different ways to embody values
The helicopter slowly landed on the mountainside platform, Xiang Linghui pressed the military hat on his head, jumped out of the cabin and saw the officer who came to pick him up, Xiang Linghui quickened his pace and walked towards the gate of the cave
"General Xiang, I'm just waiting for you"
"Really? Then take me to the conference room."
The helicopter did not stop, quickly flew off the platform, and flew west towards the afterglow of the setting sun
"How were you doing along the way?"
"It's not bad, it's just that the last few minutes have turned me upside down, and I haven't come back to my senses yet"
"Everyone is the same, and it's the same when we first came"
Xiang Linghui smiled, did not talk to the second lieutenant officer about the underground cavern built in the 60s of the last century for the "big battle" is located in the lofty mountains, a year ago was designated as the theater joint command center, has undergone a comprehensive repair, added a lot of facilities and equipment, the expansion project undertaken by the former Second Artillery Corps engineer has not yet been completed, and many areas are hung with signs saying "no entry."
"The generals of the fleet, submarines, navy, marines and air force have arrived, and everyone is waiting for you"
"I'll go over immediately, the local staff officers of the Special Brigade of the General Staff will arrive in three hours, arrange the reception, and I'll go to them after the work meeting."
"It's all on me."
Outside the tactical conference room, Xiang Linghui tidied up his military uniform a little messily before pushing the door in
"Six thirty sharp," Ying Changhui greeted him happily, "I just said that Xiang Linghui will never be late or early."
"Hello Commander Ying!" Xiang Linghui nodded to the others as a greeting
"Everyone is here, let's start," Ying Changhui walked to the chairman's position, and said to Xiang Linghui next to him, "General Xiang, are you coming or am I coming?" ”
"Let's ask Commander Ying to speak first," Xiang Linghui sat down very honestly
"The comrades of the Air Force are also here today, so I won't be verbose" Ying Changhui coughed dryly, raised his voice, and said, "After a week of tossing, the fleet went out twice, burned tens of thousands of tons of fuel, and didn't even let out a fart Today, I finally have no other requirements for us to play, I just hope that the comrades of the three services will work together and fuck it!" ”
There was an awkward silence, followed by a burst of hearty laughter
"Now, please General Xiang convey the order of the Chief of the General Staff"
Waiting for Ying Changhui to sit down, Xiang Linghui stood up and said: "The order of the chief of the general staff is the same as what the British commander said at the beginning, fuck it."
Several of the staff officers in charge of the minutes almost burst out laughing
"Of course, 'fucking it' also has to pay attention to ways and means, and you can't do it recklessly" Xiang Linghui handed a few pictures to the secretary and staff officer, "According to the previous deployment, if Japan does not take the initiative to provoke a war, we will start a war by fulfilling our sovereign obligations to the Diaoyu Islands."
The participating generals sat upright and listened attentively to Xiang Linghui's tactical explanation
"Everyone, please look at the screen" Xiang Linghui walked to the projection screen with his baton and pointed to the photo of the island that appeared on the screen, "The area of Diaoyu Dao is not large, the terrain is steep, and it is not suitable for the start of ground combat operations, the special forces directly under the General Staff Department will first land on the island, control the southwest beach, and establish a landing ground The Marine battalion participating in the combat operation must go to the island within eight hours and establish a defensive line According to the information provided by the Military Intelligence Agency, the ground combat units of the Japanese Ground Self-Defense Force and the Maritime Self-Defense Force can only be assembled within 10 hours at the earliest. If we move quickly, we will occupy ground positions and seize the initiative before the Japanese troops land on the island."
"Tang Chenglong, is there a problem?"
The Brigadier General of the Marine Corps, whose name was named by the British Changhui, immediately stood up and said loudly: "No problem, I guarantee the completion of the mission"
Ying Changhui nodded at the commander of the First Marine Brigade, and then looked at Xiang Linghui
"After the special forces land on the island, they will send a signal" Xiang Linghui glanced at the secretarial staff officer, and a map of the theater appeared on the screen: "According to the battle plan that has been drawn up long ago, the air force will provide air defense cover and tactical support for the combat fleet and combat units, and the start time of the operation will be 8:30 a.m., the air force combat units participating in the battle must complete their preparations at 4 a.m., the early warning planes, refueling planes, and reconnaissance planes that are responsible for supporting the task must take off at 6:30 a.m., and the fighter planes that are responsible for escorting air defense must take off at 7 o'clock. The Air Force's operational plan has not changed much from what was previously communicated"
"The Air Force is already ready, it will come as soon as it is recruited, and it will be able to fight!" Air Force Major General Bu Zhongyi replied very simply
Xiang Linghui nodded and said: "The attack mission is undertaken by the HNA According to the latest information provided by the Military Intelligence Agency, in addition to the Fourth Fleet, the 2nd and 3rd Fleets of the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force have arrived at Naha, but when the war breaks out without leaving the port, it only needs to strike the Fourth Fleet According to the operational arrangements submitted by the HNA, 36 Su-30MK and 24FBC-1 will be put into the main attack, and another 12 J-13B and 2410B will be provided as escort missions
After studying, it is believed that in the case of our active attack, the scale of the T and the size of the escort aircraft group can be appropriately expanded, and the mission objectives have not changed, and it is imperative to disintegrate the air defense combat capability of the Fourth Fleet after the first round of air strikes."
Ying Changhui frowned slightly, and nodded at Zhang Weichang, a major general of the Hainan Airlines
"We immediately adjusted the tactical arrangement, but it was just ......"
"According to the usual practice, the General Staff should not interfere in tactical planning, but this combat operation is interlocking, and the effect of the first round of strikes will have a direct impact on the subsequent combat operations, so we have made a proposal."
Zhang Weichang hesitated for a moment, and cast an inquiring glance at Ying Changhui
"In that case, we will do what the General Staff wants" The commander of the Navy did not think much more, "let 12 J-13Bs take up the attack mission and reduce the escort fighters to 24"
"After the air attack begins, the submarine force must also launch an operation as soon as possible" Xiang Linghui coughed dryly twice and said, "Because the General Staff is not very clear about the situation of the submarines participating in the battle, I will ask General Lu Tongfang to explain this part to us."
Rear Admiral Lu Tongfang, commander of the submarine group of the East China Sea Fleet, immediately got up and said: "In addition to the three attack nuclear submarines of the East China Sea Fleet, the 14 conventional submarines, and the 'Swordfish' under the direct command of the General Staff Headquarters, there are also three attack nuclear submarines of the South China Sea Fleet that have arrived in the theater of operations, and the number of submarines participating in the battle has reached 21 Before 3 o'clock this afternoon, we got in touch with all the submarines and assigned the specific situation of the combat mission, which is clearly stated in the combat plan of the submarine force."
Ying Changhui flipped through the documents in front of him, nodded at Lu Tongfang, and asked the major general to sit down
"Now that the tactical arrangements for the submarine force have been deployed, I will no longer delay everyone's precious time" Xiang Linghui asked the secretary and staff officer to change the third photo: "After completing the air strike and submarine ambush, the first phase of the combat operation has entered the final stage, and the East China Sea Fleet will be responsible for the final attack mission."
Hearing this, Rear Admiral Yuan Renshi, chief of staff of the East China Sea Fleet, who came to attend the meeting instead of Lin Xiaolei, showed a bitter smile
The big fish and big meat were divided up by the Marine Corps, the Air Force, the Navy and the submarine forces, and all that was left was the surface fleet without aircraft carriers, which was once again marginalized
"The specific combat mission is clearly written in the plan" Xiang Linghui noticed Yuan Renshi's expression, and did not dwell on the issue of fleet operations anymore" It is worth noting that the Japanese Self-Defense Forces must have reacted at this time, and the naval aviation that will dispatch hundreds of combat aircraft deployed in Okinawa and the southwest of the mainland, including the F-22, to counterattack, and that the naval aviation that has completed the attack mission must return to the battlefield as soon as possible, provide air defense cover for the East China Sea Fleet, and the participating air force units must also go all out and carry out operations in accordance with the battle plan. Together with the HNA to crush the Japanese army's air counterattack"
Bu Zhongyi and Zhang Weichang glanced at each other, and then nodded in agreement
"This is the end of the first phase of the combat operation" Xiang Linghui asked the secretary and staff officer to change the fourth picture, "If the combat mission is successfully completed, by this time we have occupied the Diaoyu Islands, annihilated the Fourth Fleet in the Sea of Japan, defeated the counterattack of Japan's air force, and achieved a major victory If Japan admits defeat, the war will end at this time According to the analysis report provided by the Military Intelligence Bureau, the probability that Japan will admit defeat at this time is less than one percent, so we still have to do a good job in the second stage. Before discussing the second phase of combat operations, I will focus on how to deal with other situations when they arise."
Several generals immediately showed a look of displeasure
"If you don't want to win, you want to lose first, so that we can win all battles" Ying Changhui knocked on the table, so that everyone focused on "War is not a child's playWhen summing up the lessons of the Fourth Indo-Pakistani War, I mentioned at the conference of admirals and senior officers that one of the main reasons for India's defeat was blind confidence, thinking that it could easily defeat Pakistan, and not being mentally prepared for defeat on the battlefield, the situation is changing rapidly, and only by being fully prepared for various possible situations can we be orderly, Be prepared to meet the challenge and defeat the enemy! ”
With Yingchang Hui pressing the formation, Xiang Linghui has a lot less trouble, at least he doesn't have to look at the faces of other generals
"General Xiang, you continue" Ying Changhui glanced at the generals present, his expression was very majestic
"We are just filing for various abnormal situations that may occur, and the detailed arrangements are clearly stated in the task plan, and here I will only briefly explain a few situations that require your special attention."
Xiang Linghui could not help but give face to other generals, after all, the coordinated operation of multiple arms requires close cooperation from senior commanders
In the next two hours, Xiang Linghui did his best to let the participating generals understand the possible impact of various emergencies and the correct way to deal with them
Damn it*
