Chapter 241 The reconnaissance plane lost contact, and Long Xia really took action
After leaving the sea area where the aircraft carrier formation was located, the two reconnaissance planes made a 180-degree turn in the air.
Then it headed straight towards the eastern sea area.
It's fast.
These two reconnaissance aircraft are converted from fighter jets. They have the super-fast speed of fighter jets, with a maximum level flight speed of Mach 1.2.
It can be said to be a very advanced reconnaissance aircraft.
Its detection performance is particularly advanced!
Leading the team is the captain Asao Sano, a very good pilot from the Eastern Barren Tribe Sea. He has rich experience in conducting reconnaissance missions in the air defense identification zone many times.
It can be said that the eastern sea area of the Longxia tribe is very familiar.
It is no exaggeration to say that he can fly back and forth in this sea area with his eyes closed.
"Ono, are you ready?"
"Today we are going to catch the Ratsuka Navy off guard. As long as we take the photo, we can go home."
Sano Asao is in a very good mood. Have fun communicating with your wingman via communicator.
Even though this wingman pilot is the newest and has far less combat experience than him, he still has the ability to bring him back.
“Ready, Captain.”
The voice coming from the communication tube made Sano Asao very happy, "Then we will implement the No. 1 plan now."
That's right.
They had agreed before the operation that as soon as they left the aircraft carrier formation and penetrated into the eastern waters of the Longxia tribe, they would turn off radio communications and use radio silence to sneak in quietly.
This is called catching someone by surprise!
“Understood.”
The wingman responded simply.
Soon after the two fighters responded to the message sent by the fleet, they shut down their radio communications.
In the command cabin of the Haruna-class light aircraft carrier, Captain Kishida Taro sat on the command chair, holding a coffee cup in his hand, and drank it with great enjoyment. He was still waiting for the news from the two reconnaissance aircraft. information.
After spending time with the Eagle Tribe, these sea commanders have gradually learned the Eagle soldiers’ habit of drinking coffee and smoking cigars.
In their opinion, this is the only way to be fashionable enough to keep up with the pace of naval powers.
At midnight, when people were most sleepy, he sneakily killed the Longxia tribe and caught them off guard. Then seeing them in a hurry, he was extremely excited just thinking about it, and a bright smile appeared on his face.
He is the captain and part-time task force commander. Of course he was appointed on June 5th. He has rich experience in formation command and combat. He is a rare person in the sea who has actual combat experience and also A graduate of the Eagle Tribe's West Point Military Academy.
It can be said that from his rich resume, we know that he is an extremely cunning and difficult opponent.
He is also Murakami Hayaki’s confidant!
Therefore, he is extremely confident in this operation and will definitely achieve fruitful results!
Of course, he also has selfish motives.
If he could detect no movement from the Longxia tribe, he would immediately let the relevant ships cruise outside the Longxia tribe's territorial waters, looking for opportunities to expand the results.
If he can completely wipe out the Long Xia Navy in one go, then he will completely leave his name in the history of the Eastern Wilderness Tribe and become the greatest commander of Haizi.
Maybe you can take charge of the entire Self-Defense Force in the future!
After becoming a fleet commander, who the hell doesn’t want to take another step forward?
Therefore, he attaches great importance to this military operation, and will resolutely implement Murakami Hayaki's orders without compromise.
"Sato, do you know that our raid failed last time? We lost half of the Eighth Eighth Fleet. What a tragic battle. Everything was ambushed by the Long Xia Navy. It's terrible to think about it. It's annoying and makes people crazy."
"This time, we will assassinate the Longxia tribe."
"Once our investigation is successful, the air defense identification zone will be implemented."
Kishida Taro took a deep breath, turned to look at the deputy commander beside him, and praised,
"Over time, our expanded air defense identification zone has become our own airspace. If any aircraft or ships in Longxia enter this area, we can warn and drive them away."
" General Murakami Hayaki's move can be described as quite vicious, gradually encroaching on the Long Xia tribe's territory."
"Huh, by the time they react, we have already completed the occupation."
“It’s really the best plan.”
Kishida Taro admired the good plan that Murakami Hayaki came up with during the meeting!
"Now that I think about it, the general is still thoughtful."
"Only he can come up with such a good plan, I admire him so much."
The vice-captain nodded with deep approval. , I don’t think it’s a shame to carry out a sneak attack at midnight.
For them, they never thought there was anything wrong with it.
As long as the expanded air defense identification zone is implemented and the whole world can see the determination of the Eastern Wilderness Tribal Self-Defense Force, that will be enough.
The so-called air defense identification zone is actually just temporary airspace.
Any aircraft passing through here needs to be identified and verified, or even warned to be driven away.
Gradually encroaching, sooner or later the entire Longxia tribe leader will be included in the Eastern Wilderness tribe territory, fulfilling the long-cherished wish that their ancestors have not fulfilled.
That’s right.
Even though it has been thousands of years, the Donghuang tribe has never stopped coveting the huge territory of the Longxia tribe, always thinking about how to occupy it!
For this long-cherished wish, how many times did they launch wars against the Longxia tribe?
In the eyes of the little devil, all this is a fight for survival and a battle of justice.
The same is true this time.
It is not only revenge, but also to completely eliminate Longxia Navy.
Otherwise, why would Murakami Sayamu let Hai Zi go out in full force, and why would he specifically apply to the Eagle Tribe for the dispatch and use rights of the aircraft carrier?
The deputy commander had obviously understood Murashita Hayaki's strategic deployment.
“The Longxia Tribe is really overestimating its capabilities. They didn’t even know how much they weighed. They actually set up an air defense identification zone licking their faces, and even pushed it to 100 kilometers away from our coastline. They have advanced 20 kilometers further than us."
"Their navy is so powerful that they want to eat a big fat man in one bite.
In his opinion, the Long Xia Navy was still a backward fleet dominated by second-generation ships, and the deputy commander's face was full of scorn.
“It’s just bluffing.”
"Don't worry too much, everything is based on strength."
Kishida Taro said with a casual smile, his eyes shining with disdain.
Obviously, no one from the top to the bottom of the Donghuang Tribe really took the relevant information announced by the Longxia Tribe’s foreign affairs department seriously.
In their view, any air defense identification zone is not drawn based on strength. No matter how large it is, strength without control is useless.
Even if it is set up, it is just looking for abuse and humiliation.
Of course, Haizi would not let go of this opportunity to humiliate the Longxia tribe, and even wanted to completely sink all their naval ships.
With the relaxed chat between Taro Kishida and the deputy commander in the main control room, the atmosphere became very pleasant.
From time to time, hearty laughter can be heard. Almost everyone feels that this military operation is a sure thing and there will be no surprises at all.
But at this moment, the atmosphere suddenly changed.
“Report to Captain, both reconnaissance planes are unable to contact us.”
"They seem to have turned off the communicator."
The communication liaison officer discovered an abnormality and reported it urgently.
“Can’t be contacted?”
“That shouldn’t be the case.”
Kishida Taro frowned and asked casually.
But he didn't think it was anything. After all, he often did this when performing missions to avoid being discovered by the enemy.
"Reporting to Captain, one minute ago, two reconnaissance planes closed all contact with our ship."
The communications liaison officer reported again.
"Check all communication systems to ensure that the systems can function at critical moments."
Kishida Taro disagreed and gave an order casually.
The communication liaison officer was helpless and hurriedly rechecked all the communication equipment and confirmed again that they were intact and there were no faults. In fact, when he boarded the ship before, he specifically checked it.
Even though it has not been used for such a long time, the shipbuilding technology of their Eastern Wilderness tribe is still very good, and the quality is just right, ensuring that it can be used at any time.
After the inspection, he tried to contact the two reconnaissance planes again, but still found that it was useless.
Is the reconnaissance plane lost?
"No need to contact you again."
"They performed their mission and took the initiative to turn off the communicator."
"Contact again in five minutes."
The deputy commander looked at it The Eye Communication Liaison Officer stated the action plan previously reported by Sano Asao.
Of course, he would not admit that he was deliberately messing around with the communications liaison officer.
"Yes!"
The communications liaison officer glanced at the deputy commander rather resentfully, but still responded helplessly.
Time passed quietly.
Five minutes in the past were really just a blink of an eye to him, but today at the party, he felt it was so long.
Finally got over it.
In order to avoid the situation happening, he deliberately held on for an extra minute.
“Report, we still haven’t contacted the two reconnaissance planes.”
The communication liaison officer’s report immediately made everyone in the main control room nervous, and the atmosphere suddenly changed. .
Why can’t you get in touch?
What exactly is going on?
Taro Kishida was no longer calm and paced back and forth in the main control room. He really couldn't think of any reason for the moment.
According to the flying speed of the two reconnaissance planes and the time required to perform the mission, five minutes should be enough.
"Wait a little longer."
"Keep calling."
After pondering for a moment, Taro Kishida suddenly ordered.
He felt that what happened tonight was a bit strange. Was there something abnormal?
Thinking about this, he became a little restless.
The situation is somewhat unexpected.
The wait is long.
The two reconnaissance planes still didn't send back any news, and they still couldn't contact each other.
At this moment, everyone felt that the two reconnaissance planes were like mud cows entering the sea and completely disappearing.
“Something’s wrong.”
Kishida Taro put down his coffee cup and hurried to the communicator, trying to contact him personally, but there was still no movement.
"Verify the signal tracker."
"Quickly."
The deputy commander, who also realized something was wrong, hurriedly ordered.
This is the last chance.
The signal tracker is a passive transponder that locates the traces of fighter aircraft throughout the entire process. It cannot be turned off by the pilot and can monitor the specific trajectory of the fighter aircraft in real time.
“Hi.”
The first mate responded immediately and sprang into action.
Both hands started operating on the computer, and the track map was quickly retrieved.
"Discovered, the signal disappeared here."
"They have broken into the Longxia national boundary."
Soon the first mate took the two The flight path map of the fighter plane was retrieved, and the relevant traces were quickly located. His expression changed leisurely, something serious was wrong.
In other words, something happened to both reconnaissance planes.
Taro Kishida also realized the seriousness of the problem.
The two reconnaissance planes disappeared after entering the Longxia tribe's national boundary, which means that there is a big story here.
The Long Xia Navy may have already laid an ambush in the relevant sea areas.
"Could it be that they dispatched fighter planes?"
Kishida Taro's brows were knitted together, and his old face was even more wrinkled.
Countless thoughts flashed through his mind.
Flying at an altitude of 10 kilometers and over the sea area of the Longxia tribe, the Longxia tribe will naturally not dispatch the army to work, so the most likely thing is the Longxia tribe's air force.
Since the last crisis on Dragon Claw Island, the Longxia Tribe has introduced advanced third-generation heavy fighter jets from the White Bear Tribe.
It has been a few years, and the proficiency of this batch of fighters has probably reached a new level.
As for the Longxia tribe’s navy.
It's not that he doesn't like it, it's that in his opinion the other party doesn't have the ability in this area at all.
Their anti-ship missiles are very powerful, he believes, but forget about the air defense missiles, they are not land-based air defense missiles.
Kishida Taro remembers very clearly that even though the 051C used for export was equipped with anti-aircraft missiles, they were lightweight and had a maximum range of no more than 5 kilometers.
It's fine for point defense, but it can be used for regional air defense, so forget it.
After excluding the Army Air Defense Force and Navy, the Air Force is the most likely possibility. The Longxia Tribe must have dispatched Air Force fighter jets to set up ambush in the relevant airspace early.
Once the fighter planes enter the Longxia tribe's national border, they will immediately lead the attack.
I have to say that the Longxia tribe is quite ruthless.
Only in this way can we explain why the two reconnaissance planes completely disappeared not long after entering the Longxia national boundary.
"Quickly, contact me the general."
Kishida Taro came back to his senses and hurriedly issued instructions to the communications liaison officer.
"Already contacted."
The communications officer quickly responded.
"General, something happened..."
Kishida Taro quickly gave a detailed report on what happened here, concisely and comprehensively.
Murakita Saki on the other end of the phone was drowsy while waiting for the news, even after receiving this emergency call.
"Nani? Our two reconnaissance planes lost contact?"
"The Longxia Air Force has long been ambushing in the relevant airspace?"
After listening to the report, Murakami Asagi's whole body As soon as he stirred up his spirit, he suddenly lost all sleepiness and said in disbelief.
The whole head is buzzing!
“Baga!”
After a loud shout, Murakami Hayaki gasped continuously, and his whole body became uncomfortable.
Two reconnaissance planes were lost.
The two first-class pilots on the plane were completely dead.
Murakita Hayaki almost exploded on the spot.
How could this happen?
He quickly became rational. The Longxia tribe must have set up an ambush to do this.
