Chapter 1278: Create a reason for invasion (Second update, please subscribe)
What results will a public missile launch test bring?
While showing the TEL (Transport, Erect and Launch) chassis to the world, it also reminds everyone that a new era has arrived.
In the past, our missiles were launched from fixed silos or launch bases. But now it can be launched anywhere, anytime.
While Nanyang's high-mobility TEL platform makes the Western world jealous, and its solid medium-range missiles make the Soviet Union jealous, Nanyang has also been criticized by the outside world, accusing it of further promoting tensions in the Asia-Pacific region.
In fact, this is a medium-range missile with a range of 2,000-2,500 kilometers. Considering the geographical location of Southeast Asia, it basically does not pose any threat to the Soviet Union.
So, the ironic "Carpenter" just initiated a new missile technology revolution.
It will have almost no impact on the world situation.
As time passes into July, the world situation is still changing - after years of struggle, Algeria finally became independent, and this actually announced the collapse of the French colonial empire.
July of 1962 seemed to announce to the world the arrival of a new era - the end of the old era.
In the eyes of some optimistic people, all things of the old era—colonial rule, imperialism, and so on—will eventually come to an end.
But this is actually just a beautiful fantasy of some people. Almost at the same time that France allowed Algeria to surrender, recognized its independence, and agreed to withdraw from France, in the Ministry of National Defense building in Nanyang, after several months of After preparation, the military finally came up with a specific action plan.
“…According to the plan, before the arrival of “A” day, we will dispatch an aircraft carrier battle group with the aircraft carrier "Friendship" as the core to the Indian Ocean in the name of exercise, accompanied by four Yongchang -class destroyers..."
Then Zhao Mingqin specifically emphasized:
"Currently, the four Yongchang-class destroyers of the Navy have been modified. Their front and rear multi-purpose launchers can both launch combat weapons. Ax cruise missile! ”
When he heard him mention the Tomahawk cruise missile, Li Yian raised his eyebrows slightly, and his face couldn't help but reveal eyes full of expectation:
"It seems that you are very confident in the Tomahawk!"
“We have conducted thirty-four test launches, and the results of the test launches are very satisfactory, Your Excellency, just as you said In that way, it may even change the pattern of war, just like the Thunderstone guided bomb."
The reason why Zhao Mingqin said this is because Nanyang has indeed enjoyed the "dividend of technological change", in Siam, Nanyang. The ability to destroy the country in just a few days was due to the attack on the Prime Minister's Office by Thunderstone TV-guided bombs.
Nodding, Li Yian said:
"The key is to formulate good tactics. If you want to exert the maximum power of a new weapon, you must formulate corresponding tactics. Our tactical principles are still the same as in the past, just to maximize the role of the weapon. This is our development of military The fundamental reason is technology!”
In fact, Nanyang has been going all the way in military technology - after all, Nanyang’s military strength was limited at the beginning, and only by continuously improving the technical level of military equipment can we achieve the greatest success. Kill the enemy.
In the few limited wars, Nanyang also enjoyed technological dividends. Therefore, this "black road" will naturally go all the way to black.
Subsequently, Li Yian had a good discussion with Zhao Mingqin and other generals on the staff on tactical issues, basically drawing on the experience of the Gulf War.
Can it be a low-end version of the Gulf War?
The answer is obviously impossible. After all, the gap between satellite technology and weapons technology is very large. It is still extremely unrealistic to fight a low-end version of the Gulf War at this time,
"But , Now, this is not important, a quick victory over Iraq, no problem at all, now the Iraqi people are extremely disgusted with the Qasim regime, whether they are Shias, Sunnis, or Kurds, they have no choice but to It’s not that I miss the rule of the king’s era. The people’s support is with me, and coupled with the military advantage, there is no problem at all in this battle!”
The words paused for a moment, and Li Yian looked at the crowd and said:< br>
“What is the most important thing now?”
“An excuse!”
A staff officer said directly:
"Your Excellency, we need to find a suitable excuse before the arrival of "A" day. Only in this way can we intervene in Iraqi affairs."
Looking at the young officer, Li Yian asked:
"So in your opinion, what excuse should we use?"
"Humanitarian crisis!"
The young officer said:
"Currently, Qasim's brutal rule has not only caused millions of Iraqis to become refugees and flee abroad, but his massacre of Kurds and other tribes has also caused serious damage within Iraq. It is an extremely serious humanitarian crisis. As a responsible big country, we should never ignore the suffering of the local people!”
Listening to the young officer’s story, Li Yian nodded slightly and said:
"Indeed, we cannot ignore the suffering suffered by the Iraqi people, um..."
Looking at the young staff officer, Li Yian asked:
"What's your name?" "Sir, my name is Qiao Hu."
Sometimes, life is always full of accidents and coincidences. Eighteen years ago, Qiao was only three years old. After Tiger became an orphan, he was adopted by the Flying Tigers because he did not know his own name. From then on, he became Little Tiger Joe, the youngest member of the Flying Tigers.
Later, entrusted by the 907 Engineering Team, Zhu Yihai sent him to Nanyang. Tiger Qiao entered the King's School and his name became Qiao Hu.
Last year, Qiao Hu graduated among the top ten in the military academy. Following tradition—in fact, the Prussian tradition of training officers, he entered the staff department, became a combat staff officer, and participated in "Plan A" "The formulation of.
Although he didn't know some of the episodes, when he saw the ring on his left index finger, Li Yian nodded slightly and said:
"Very good, very energetic!"
How can I not be energetic? Well! After all, the children at King's School are, to a certain extent, their own children!
After praising him, Li Yian asked:
“So, in your opinion, what should be the first step?”
"You can first meet with the Iraqi Prime Minister or Princess in a formal interview, and then request the Asian Games Organizing Committee to announce Iraq's participation in the Asian Games on the grounds of a humanitarian crisis.
Then, submit a bill to the United Nations General Assembly. , asking the United Nations to review the "Humanitarian Crisis in Iraq"..."
When Qiao Hu proposed a series of plans, Li Yian nodded from time to time, his eyes full of appreciation.
Hey guys, this method of escalating the problem sounds a bit familiar!
At this time, someone said from the side:
"But Iraq has not indicated at all that it will send a delegation to participate in the Jakarta Asian Games!"
"This is not important!"
Qiao Hu said directly:
“The important thing is that we need to show our attitude.”
“What if Jakarta refuses?”
"They can refuse Israel's participation in the Asian Games on religious grounds, so why can't they refuse Iraq's participation on the grounds of a humanitarian disaster? If they refuse, then why should we compete with such a group of guys who can't tell the difference between right and wrong?"
Qiao Hu's answer made Zhao Mingqin frown and said:
"Do you mean we boycott the Asian Games?"
"For the sake of justice, only If we can do this, not only us, but Siam, Malaya, Singapore, Kyushu, South Korea and Saigon can also strive for the Philippines and South Japan to jointly boycott the Asian Games!"
Qiao Hu then turned his attention! Your Excellency, said:
"We need to create an atmosphere for the whole world - the whole of Asia is paying attention to the "Humanitarian Crisis in Iraq" and therefore boycotting the Asian Games, thus paving the way for our next move."
In fact, they I don’t know – this has already started to happen. For example, in the United States, after Princess Khadia visited the United States in a private capacity, the news on ABC and other TV stations was filled with news about the humanitarian crisis in Iraq.
This is the result of joint cooperation between the CIA and the Secret Service.
"Next step?"
"The next step is to implement "Plan A". As long as the atmosphere is almost created, we can directly implement the plan. Regardless of whether the United Nations authorizes it or not, by then, we will all We can enter Iraq in the name of the coalition forces and at the invitation of the Kingdom of Iraq to end this "humanitarian crisis""
"Coalition forces?"
This was obviously not in the staff's plan, so Zhao Mingqin had such a question.
“Yes, Commander, just by bringing together several countries, the Americans can pull out a United Nations army on the peninsula, and we can also pull out a coalition force, Malaya, Siam, they fight for freedom It’s natural for the world to contribute!”
This routine is really familiar!
It seems like in another world, Americans like to do this!
I have to say that hegemonism may sound unpleasant to people many times, but that is because they are being hegemonized by others. But if it is one's turn to be the country that implements hegemony, then it will naturally be a different feeling. .
Looking at the staff officer who still holds the rank of second lieutenant, Li Yian smiled and said:
“These ideas of yours are very good and very practical. The staff can work with them. The Intelligence Bureau and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will communicate and formulate a detailed plan. "
Going to the map and looking at Iraq on the map, Li Yian said:
" We are indeed implementing hegemonism, but at least we must tell the whole world that we are doing this for the benefit of the Iraqi people and to end the local "humanitarian disaster"... This is what makes a name for oneself, and we must occupy the moral supremacy. Click!”
Even if it's false, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter whether others believe it or not. What's important is that Nanyang believes it himself. In other words, let the vast majority of people around the world believe that Nanyang is for the Iraqi people.
After thinking about it, Li Yian said:
"On the Iraq issue, there is no need to rush it. You can use these few months to let the whole country know through TV stations, newspapers and other means. The world has seen the humanitarian disaster in Iraq and Qasim’s brutal rule. By the way, when Qasim launched the uniform change, didn’t he kill Americans and British people? Please dig out this news and stir it up. , Let’s fight...”
Looking at the staff officers in front of him, Li Yian said solemnly:
“Now the times have changed. In the past, the soldiers and horses went first before food and grass were used. Now it is Before the soldiers and horses are moved, public opinion takes precedence!”
