Volume 10 Reshuffle Chapter 53 Pre-war mobilization

...Fengqing Bureau really intervenes. Things have become much easier

On April 1st, accompanied by Hua Jianfeng, Pei Chengyi first met with Tracescu.

.

Although the Argentine Navy Chief of Staff was still not willing to obey Pei Chengyi's command, hoping to maintain the original relationship and only restore Pei Chengyi's advisory position, but with the direct intervention of Theron, Tracescu, who had lost for a while, was unable to turn the situation around, could only compromise. After Pei Chengyi promised not to interfere with the personnel arrangements of the Argentine Navy, he handed over the command of the navy.

After finishing the navy, Pei Chengyi continued to work hard and pointed his finger at the Zhajun.

In the eyes of many people, Alfonso has a weak foundation in the Argent army, and his background is far less than that of Patos and Treseccu. If it weren't for the rapid development of the air force in recent years, Alfonso would probably not even have the say. In this case, Alfonso would definitely follow the general trend and actively cooperate with Pei Chengyi. In fact, the problem is far from that simple. Because whether the regaining of the island of Mahara depends on whether he can control air supremacy, the Air Force is most valued in the modernization of national defense, and the struggle for the head of the air force is also the most fierce. Alfonso was able to defeat many competitors and become the chief of staff of the Air Force when he was in his early years. In addition to his excellent service record, it has a lot to do with his way of dealing with people. To put it simply, among the three commanders of Argentina, Alfonso was the most sleek and knew how to play tricks.

On the evening of the day of the day, Pei Chengyi found Afangsuo.

Unlike when facing Tracescu, Pei Chengyi not only did not bring Huajian thugs, but also did not show off to Alfonso as soon as he came up. In fact, when he first met Alfonso a few months ago, Pei Chengyi knew that this lieutenant general of the Argentine Air Force was not simple. As Pei Chengyi expected, Alfonso not only took the initiative to ask Pei Chengyi for advice, but also took the initiative to follow Pei Chengyi's command. However, these are tricks of retreating to advance, and the ultimate goal is not to hand over command. When talking about specific issues, Alfonso used excuses that had been prepared long ago, such as language barriers, unfamiliarity with the situation, backward basic conditions, etc., and tried every means to create obstacles, so that Pei Chengyi would retreat with difficulty.

A few days ago, Alfonso's tricks were always effective.

The problem now is that even if Pei Chengyi wants to give in, he cannot give in, because it is not his idea to take over the command of the army, but a secret agreement reached by Theron and the Military Intelligence Bureau, that is, when Pei Chengyi is given absolute military command, the Military Intelligence Bureau provides absolute guarantees for the interests of the Theron family. In order to make Theron absolutely relieved, Liu Xiaobin also brought a "guarantee letter" signed by the head of state Wang Yuanqing and legally efficient. It can be seen that the Military Intelligence Bureau has been treacherous and no longer cared about the consequences. Theron has no other choice. After reaching the secret agreement, he and Pei Chengyi have already suffered a symbiotic relationship of both losses and prosperity.

With the absolute support of the Argentine president, Alfonso can at most cause some minor trouble.

After dealing with the Argentine Air Force Lieutenant General, Pei Chengyi did not face Patos directly, but threw the task of dealing with the Argentine Army commander to his assistant Dongfang Wen.

In the early morning of the 10th day, Pei Chengyi held the first joint meeting at the Argentine Naval Command.

Although Theron promised to provide a special office location for the Joint Command, Pei Chengyi felt it was completely unnecessary and chose the Argentine Naval Command.

This choice was to take care of Hua Jianfeng. After all, among the soldiers who went to Afghanistan in the Republic, Hua Jianfeng's rank and power were only lower than that of Pei Chengyi; second, the infrastructure of the Argentine Naval Command was more complete, and it had several sets of advanced communication equipment covering various frequency bands; third, the Cabernet Island dispute was based on maritime warfare, and the navy's combat operations were very critical; finally, Pei Chengyi did not want to argue with Alfonso. Because in addition to getting the commander of the Argentine Army and getting the qualification to take over the General Staff, in addition to choosing the Navy Command, he could only choose the Air Force Command.

Because Patos was very dissatisfied with Pei Chengyi's takeover of Commander Ah Jun, he only sent a major adjutant to listen.

Facing Tracescu, Alfonso, and many officers from the Argentine Army, Navy and Air Force, Pei Chengyi did not feel pressured, and even took them seriously, because there were dozens of officers from the advisory group in the conference room, as well as many officers from the Military Intelligence Bureau who followed Hua Kufeng.

In fact, even Hua Jianfeng did not pay attention to his Argentina colleagues.

"Although there has not been a clear information, our concerns have basically confirmed that at least four British submarines have not returned to the military port in accordance with the mobilization order issued by the British Ministry of Defense to prepare for the expedition. In other words, these four submarines are likely to have moved south and even reached the war zone." The introduction was an intelligence analyst sent by the Military Intelligence Agency. "The specific four submarines are, because the British Navy strictly blocked the news and the submarines handled the discernible characteristics before entering the port, so it is not certain for the time being. There is only one thing that can be confirmed, that is, they are all "fast, class attack submarines, and even the second batch of improved models."

“How reliable is the report?”

"It will not be less than 80%. "The intelligence analyst seemed to feel that the answer was not accurate enough. He also said, "Because in recent years, especially in recent years, the submarine strength of the Russian Navy has greatly improved, and combat readiness patrols have become more and more frequent, and two to three attack submarines are dispatched to the North Atlantic every month on average. Since five years ago, the British Navy has strengthened the combat readiness level of the submarine force and increased the coverage of strategic submarines. According to the limit on the number of intelligence attack submarines we have obtained, the national navy has adopted a more flexible combat technique, that is, to issue two strategic patrol areas in the Atlantic Ocean.

, deploy an attack submarine that performs anti-submarine escort missions in each sea area, rather than equiping submarines for strategic submarines to patrol the sea. This greatly reduces the burden on the attack submarine force and effectively ensures the duty rate of the submarine force. Because it takes at least one week or even half a month to adjust the strategic patrol, we have enough reason to believe that at least two attack submarines are performing strategic escort missions, and returning to the port are six "agile, class attack submarines, so we concluded that four "fast, class, and possibly four second batches" are heading south.

Pei Chengyi nodded, indicating that he understood the intelligence analyst's meaning.

Although Pei Chengyi was not very concerned about the grudge between Britain and Russia, according to popular international sayings, since the Republic disclosed the details of the strategic nuclear arsenal, the United States reached a secret agreement with Britain, that is, % of the submarine forces of the US Navy were used to deal with the Republic, leaving only the rules against Russia, while Britain concentrated its efforts against Russia. For this reason, the United States not only promised to share the most advanced submarine technology with Britain, but also supported Britain to build more submarines in various ways. Although the credibility of this rumor is not high, there is no evidence. No one can even tell the exact source, but from the reality, it may be the case. Without the assistance of the United States, the United Kingdom might have been at the forefront.

Are other Western countries the first to build attack submarines that use "magnetic fluid propulsion devices"? More importantly, before this, the UK once reduced the number of attack submarines to 6, and at the most, it was also used. After that, the number of attack submarines in the UK increased to the thugs. You should know that during this period, the British Navy also built three super aircraft carriers and dozens of large surface warships. Even if the public military expenditure was not high every year, without the secret funding provided by the United States, with the British national strength, it would be impossible to maintain a third-largest navy in the world. There is even reason to believe that the smart British put together the United States and used the funds provided by the United States to develop submarines to arm the entire navy.

Of course, these are all too far-reaching.

According to international rumors, 0 years ago, Britain benefited a lot from the secret agreement, because before that, the weak polar bears, except for occasionally sing their teeth, were at most symbolic to send a few old bombers and several hole-ridden submarines to the North Atlantic to show their existence. Not only could they not pose a threat to the United States and Britain, but they did not pose a threat to the United States and Britain.

.

After the Year of the Rising, the good days for the British were over. With the end of the Great Depression, the global economy began to recover strongly, and the demand for resources by countries around the world increased greatly. In addition, several major economies have adjusted their economic structure with the help of the recovery momentum of the post-Great Depression era. As Russia, with the most resource-rich Russia, with its latecomer advantage, has embarked on the road to revival at an extremely fast speed. As a regional power with tradition of expansion, under the stimulation of economic recovery, Russia's ambitions of a major power burst again. According to incomplete statistics, just before the Blade era, the British Navy had to "closely contact" with the Russian Navy's nuclear submarines many times a month on average, and almost every two days a thrilling "under-the-sea Hollywood blockbuster" was staged. The military expenditure of the UK for this year is far greater than the aid obtained from the United States. Including the collateral losses, the UK has already gained more than it earns.

How to reduce military expenditure has become the highlight of the British Ministry of Re-defense in recent years.

According to the information provided by the Military Intelligence Agency, if the military expenditure is not enough, the British Navy will purchase the third batch of "Fast" class attack submarines in the field fiscal year. Although there is no evidence that the "Fast" class of the third batch has made great progress compared with the first two batches, there is enough reason to believe that through the accumulated experience in previous years, the UK has mastered more "magnetic fluid propulsion technologies." It is very likely that the third batch of "Fast. Classes are equipped with more advanced cruise propulsion systems to increase the maximum cruise speed of the submarine to the force knot, or even above the outage knot. As a result, it is precisely because the military spending is too small that the navy has been cut in a key way, so the "Agile" class improvement Jigo has to replace the "Fast" class procurement plan thugs.

While thinking, Pei Chengyi looked at Hua Jianfeng.

"There is a problem that I haven't figured out."

Tracescu suddenly spoke, and Hua Jianfeng could only cry and wait for the Argentine Navy Chief of Staff to finish his words.

"If Fanze is not wrong, it was mentioned at the beginning that the identity of the four submarines could not be determined, but at the end it was determined that they were four "fast, class attack submarines, and they also thought that it might be four second batches. Isn't this inconsistency? After saying that, Tracescu deliberately glanced at Pei Chengyi.

Faced with the problem of Argentina's chief of staff, Pei Chengyi smiled bitterly and turned his attention to the intelligence analyst.

The intelligence analyst did not rush to speak, but instead cast inquiring eyes at Hua Jianfeng.

Hua Jianfeng thought about it for a while before nodding slightly.

With the approval of the lieutenant general, the intelligence analyst did not hesitate and called out a few pictures from the computer. "This is a photo taken by our reconnaissance satellite. On the left is "fast, class attack submarine, class attack submarine, right is "smart, class attack submarine. It can be seen that the appearance characteristics of the two are very obvious and the difference is very obvious. Even ordinary military enthusiasts can recognize the two submarines."

"If the British Navy wants to hide the truth, I don't want to pretend to be a good man, the famous senior military officer sitting next to Tracescu"

"Casses are certain, but disguise is disguise, and fake is fake." The intelligence analyst was not stumped and took out a few more photos. "This was also taken by reconnaissance satellites, but it is not a visible light photo. The left is infrared phase, the middle is radar phase, and the right is polarized spectrum. Using special reading instruments and professional analysts to read useful information from it, you can determine the nature of the target. It is undeniable that disguise can play a deceptive effect, but in modern reconnaissance players, no camouflage can be achieved without any flaws. Fake is fake, and it will never be true.

"One method is not good, but several methods are always good, right?

"There is a possibility in theory, but"

"If you are interested, we can provide all information including the original reconnaissance photo. Anyway, we must admit that so far, four British submarines have not entered our surveillance range. According to the information we have had before, these four submarines are likely to have left port in early April. In other words, these four submarines may have appeared near the Cambridge Island at any time."

"If General Zhaohua's words, our purpose of this battle is to annihilate these four submarines?" Tracescu did not have the problem of entanglement at the beginning, but was exhausted with Hua Jianfeng.

Hua Jianfeng smiled and shook his head, leaving the opportunity to speak to Pei Chengyi.

"General Tracescu, no matter what the perspective is, your navy is not a navy with anti-submarine as its main mission. We do not need to be unable to get along with several British submarines. To be honest, even if the four British submarines come over, they cannot provide much support to the defenders on the island." Pei Chengyi smiled and said. "My mother doubts that whether we can obtain sea control will be the key to the outcome of this war, but at present, our mission is not to compete with several British submarines for sea control, but how to make full use of sea control in our hands

"General Pei, what do you mean is that we have the power to control the sea?"

Pei Chengyi nodded with a smile, and did not argue with Tracescu, after all, he was not a navy

.

"General Tracescu, I understand your idea very well. As a naval general from the submarine force, I do not want to underestimate the position of a submarine in the navy, but we must admit that the crucial issue is that from the moment of its birth, the submarine is not used to obtain the control of sea power, but to destroy the control of sea power.

Hua Jianfeng is the absolute authority of naval warfare and submarine warfare, and the theoretical matters should naturally be solved by him. "If you want to explain in detail, you have to start with the essence of "the sea control, which can make us say how many days and nights. Of course, I believe that as the best representative of the Argentine Navy, General Tracescu would not misunderstand the truth.

Obviously, when Hua Jianfeng saw Pei Chengyi's attitude was very tactful, he was much more polite.

After being told by Hua Jianfeng, even if Tracescu still wants to cause some trouble, there is no reason. Obviously, if he continues to entangle the problem at the beginning, no matter whether he can tell the reason, he will appear very ignorant. As the chief of staff of the Argentine Navy, Tracescu must not be too over-acting in front of a group of subordinates and the officers of the Air Force and the Army, making others think that he is an uneducated reckless man. More importantly, Pei Chengyi and Hua Jianfeng's tone were very tactful, giving him enough face.

"In fact, before the arrival of the British task force, the sea control power was in our hands. British submarines could only pose a threat to the sea control power we had at most, making it impossible for us to effectively utilize the sea control power." Pei Chengyi pulled the topic back. "The ultimate goal of this combat operation is not to kill many British submarines, but to transport reinforcements to the Cavaliers and provide reinforcements to the Army assault forces. Thugs strive for the surface combat operations completed before the weather changes. Of course, war is the most difficult thing to predict, so we must be prepared for various possible situations. If necessary, we will still look for it in battle. Or create opportunities to attack the British navy."

"How confident is General Pei to complete the combat mission?"

"It's not clear, I only know. We have no second choice, let alone retreat. Pei Chengyi glanced at Tracescu. He said in a remark, "Although the war has only been going on for 120 hours so far, as Britain formed a task force and mobilized local wars, the situation has become very clear. We provoked a war, which does not mean that the war will end. At least so far, there is no sign that the war will end as we wish. It is up to us to decide when to end the war, any act of speculating the outcome of the war is meaningless. All we can do is to devote all our strength, overcome every difficulty we encounter, and toward the final victory before we decide when to end the war.

At this point, even Tracescu was excited.

I have to say that Pei Chengyi is very good at inspiring people.

In fact, Tracescu is not the biggest trouble.

When Pei Chengyi picked up the teacup, he looked at Alfonso who had not spoken. The statue of the statue, Alfonso who sat for several hours without saying a word was even more worthy of being careful.
