250. Chapter 250 New target in the South China Sea(2/2)

After Zhan Gui said goodbye and went out, Tao Donglai continued the previous topic and said: "If I remember correctly, there is a good place in the territory that is currently occupied."

"That's right, and we'd better occupy this place as soon as possible to ensure that our waterway to the Malacca area of ​​the South China Sea is smooth in the future." Ning Qi obviously also understood where Tao Donglai was talking about.

Only Ren Liang still hasn't figured out the situation: "Did I miss something? Why can't I understand what you are saying?"

"Bring up the map and take a look and you will know." Tao Donglai tapped the table lightly and said.

Ren Liang quickly pulled up the local satellite map from his laptop, and soon he understood where the "good place" Tao Donglai and Ning Qi were talking about: "Jinlan Bay?"

"Well, it's Cam Ranh Bay." Tao Donglai confirmed his answer.

Cam Ranh Bay is the most important military port and naval base in southeastern Vietnam in later generations. Its importance is equivalent to that of Yulin Military Port in Sanya. This bay formed by two peninsulas is divided into the outer port Pingba and the inner port Cam Ranh, covering an area of ​​more than

60 square kilometers, but the mouth of Cam Ranh Bay is only more than 1,000 meters, and the water in the bay is deep enough to dock an aircraft carrier. It is an excellent deep-water port on the Indochina Peninsula. It is located right between the Pacific and Indian Ocean routes. Its strategic position is very important.

.In history, France, Russia, Japan, the United States and other countries have used Cam Ranh Bay as a naval base, which shows the importance of this harbor.

"There are no good deep-water ports in North Vietnam. Let's not talk about it. We can get away with occupying the Tushan Peninsula. But we cannot let go of Cam Ranh Bay in the south. You see, this place is located exactly between Victory Port and

The middle section of the Strait of Malacca is a good midway supply point for ships heading south from China to Malacca or Batavia. By occupying this location, we can control the lifeblood of this route!

"Ning Qi said very excitedly.

"Don't be too excited. It's not that easy to occupy this place. It's further away than Black Earth Port, and the harbor area is much larger than Victory Port. If we want to gain a foothold there, we must first have a strong force.

Only the fleet will do." Tao Donglai poured cold water on Ning Qi, who was good at talking on paper, at the right time.
Chapter completed!
