The 670th chapter captures the island (5)

"The Zhongye Island has been taken down, and the Changbai Mountain and the 66th Marine Brigade are basically ineffective. Xiyue Island and Feixin Island are in the process of seizing it, but there are even fewer Philippine troops on the two islands, so it is not difficult to occupy military force." Ding Desheng thought about it for a while, "Now the facilities on Zhongye Island are completely preserved. The Air Force can enter immediately after the radar and other command and early warning facilities are completed. In terms of the combat defense concept of the US fleet, Nanwei Island has little impact."

"Our exercise will last for a week. Delaying one or two days has some impact on the entire plan, but it is not a big problem. What is more troublesome is to maintain high-frequency air patrol missions. The fuel consumption of fighter jets is a bit large. If one extra day is added, it will affect the number of takeoffs and landings of our fighter jets." Ding Desheng said, "The US special mixed fleet is just under our noses. We must retain some of the fuel for the launch of fighter jets. At the same time, when the main fleet leaves the Nansha Islands, it will retain enough fuel for the seized islands."

After hearing Ding Desheng's report, Xue Chenguang also had a headache. In order to prevent the Vietnamese Air Force from interfering with the island-seizing battle, the exercise fleet now maintained at least two flight brigades of fighter jets on patrol and alert over Nanwei Island.

Over Zhongye Island, the Taiping Island Naval Air Force is temporarily protected.

But in any case, these military operations consume a lot of fuel every day. It will take more than one and a half days to transport supplies from Sanya Logistics Base to the Nansha Front at the fastest. It can be said that the supply is quite difficult. If it weren't for the nuclear power of the Navy's main ships such as aircraft carriers, destroyers and landing ships, the consumption of fuel by this special mixed fleet would be even more unbearable.

The country has not taken action against Nansha for a long time, and this logistical support is also a very realistic factor.

"Telection Duan Tianlei, we will give him 20 more hours and ask them to take Nanwei Island within 24 hours," Xue Chenguang was silent for a while and ordered, "Tell Duan Tianlei that we must learn to use superior firepower to control the casualties of the troops, and do not be stingy with the use of firepower and ammunition of the entire attack group."

It’s okay to say the previous words. The following sentences fully demonstrate Xue Chenguang’s dissatisfaction with the Nanwei Island Front Command. The battle just started, and he lost an armed helicopter, two tanks and more than 40 casualties. Xue Chenguang was very dissatisfied with this result. If the entire battle ended, Xue Chenguang could accept it, but it was only a few minutes. If this situation was still the case next, Xue Chenguang even doubted whether the two land battalions he had invested could take Nanwei Island.

After receiving a telegram from the exercise command, Duan Tianlei's originally grim face became even more gloomy. The graceful combat time had already shown the command's tactful criticism of the progress of the front line. Moreover, Commander Xue also told him that Duan Tianlei was inappropriate in command and rashly invested troops without clearing the main obstacles, causing major casualties.

But the commander said it was right at all. He did fight too badly in this battle, and everyone was too optimistic about the difficulties.

"Get hard and beat me hard. No buildings on the island will be left, and all the buildings will be flat." Duan Tianlei gritted his teeth and ordered that as a general in his early 40s, the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam and the two-mountain round battle are a legend for him. Duan Tianlei did not know the insidious and viciousness of the Vietnamese army pretending to be innocent in person and turning their heads behind their backs to shoot cold-shot guns.

Nanwei Island and the others have achieved quite good results by using an old trick to show their weakness and luring the enemy into depth. Duan Tianlei and his team originally planned to retain most of the building facilities on the island and take down the island. The Vietnamese army is not an upgraded version of the police force like the Philippine army that has never fought a regular war.

However, when the shells landed on Nanwei Island like raindrops and hit buildings accurately, the Vietnamese commander found that their maneuvering space was getting less and less. Although they dug and built a lot of underground bunkers on the island, due to the altitude of the island, these fortifications would not be too deep and thick. After destroying the buildings above, they hit the underground bunkers inside, and they still could not withstand the power of the People's Liberation Army's naval guns.

"Anti-submarine units attack on the entire line, pay attention to the surrounding vigilance and guard against the Vietnamese submarine raid!" After issuing the shelling order, Duan Tianlei added that although the anti-submarine sonar on each ship is now monitoring every move under the sea, this sea area is not familiar with it. The sonar system on the ship alone is not enough to protect the sea safety of the entire attack fleet.

Four anti-submarine helicopters on the Changbai Mountain and two 054A carrier-based anti-submarine helicopters were dispatched in turn to ensure that two anti-submarine helicopters in the air patrol and monitor every move of the 100 kilometers of waters around the surrounding area without interruption.

The fierce battle on Nanwei Island was in full swing, and Zhongye Island had already begun construction work. The Philippine army obviously did not have the qualifications and ability to play tricks, and honestly became a prisoner of the 1st Land War Battalion. A long-awaited transport ship immediately moved closer to Zhongye Island after the 1st Land War Battalion controlled the island.

On this 3,000-ton transport ship, it is not only full of various construction materials, but also an engineering brigade of more than 200 people. They are engineers of naval engineering construction and will urgently repair a simple fighter take-off and landing command center for HNA's air force fighter jets, and establish important military facilities such as radar early warning systems and coastal air defense systems.

After completing these facilities, HNA's J-11C fighter jets can be allowed to fight on Zhongye Island. Now, a main force has already started to take off from the Sanya base and is preparing to land on Zhongye Island.

The airport built by the Filipino maid can even take off and land. For J-11C fighter jets, there is no problem with landing on Zhongye Island. Although the airport built by the Filipino maid is a bit simple, it is not a big problem to temporarily park and place these 30 aircraft. It is just that before the radar warning and command system is completed, HNA fighter jets temporarily need air early warning aircraft taken off from Taiping Island to command operations.

If it is for the US F-35 stealth fighter, the lack of an early warning system composed of meter-wave radar and doki radar on the island will cause these J-11Cs to suffer a lot, but when facing the US ship-borne F/A-18 Super Hornet fighter, there is no pressure to fight the J-11C alone.

This is also the confidence that HNA can have the confidence to enter the island directly without completing the construction of the radar warning system.

What is little known is that the main HNA team just installed a new achievement of the Duke Dragon Project before taking off, the EJ-100 electronic jammer. It is said that this device weighs only a few dozen kilograms more effective than the interference performance of the current electronic combat pod.
