According to months, even the soldiers who don’t understand politics know who is the federal government.

For federal government officials and senior US military generals, it is common for the president to throw the responsibility to the Secretary of State when encountering major events. So when Mrs. Lobring convened the federal government ministerial officials and generals of the Army, sea, air and space, and other military corpses participating in the Joint Conference to the State Department for a meeting, no one was surprised.

After the meeting begins, the fourth director and the director of the u will first introduce the situation.

Unlike when Landers presided over the meeting, after the two intelligence officials introduced the situation, Mrs. Lobring did not rush to enter the main topic, but instead asked the "Diplomatic Information Administration" affiliated to the State Council, that is, the person in charge, to give a more in-depth explanation of the current situation.

It can be seen that Mrs. Lobring trusts more in the intelligence unit she manages.

In the sense, it is an information management unit similar to the Archives Office, but in fact it is a major intelligence agency under the US State Department. Although it is influenced by the fourth-class large intelligence agencies and is not well-known, and few people even know that this institution with only more than 1,000 members is an intelligence unit, it plays a very important role among many intelligence agencies in the United States.

In general, it is a simple intelligence agency.

Because of the restrictions of relevant laws, "being able to have its own intelligence personnel team. When the fourth was established, the US Congress passed relevant legislation, that is, in terms of foreign intelligence, only the four have the power to train and command intelligence personnel, and other intelligence agencies are not allowed to train spies. Therefore, if you attach importance to collecting intelligence through high-tech means and manage all military satellites under the US Department of Defense and are responsible for monitoring communications in the United States and even globally, you can work hard in other aspects.

As an intelligence agency directly led by the State Council, what he is good at is obtaining invasions from public and semi-public channels and extracting useful components from this information. Simply put, it is to analyze and process public and semi-public information to obtain important information.

The meeting entered the theme stage after the director gave a comprehensive introduction.

The participants knew that the situation was very unhappy with the United States.

According to the fourth statement, the evidence submitted by the representative of the Republic to the International War Tribunal of the Hague was highly reliable, that is, Turkish Prime Minister Ozar did issue a secret order to the Turkish army behind Duchwit's back, and use the war in the south to eradicate extremists among the Kurds. Perhaps Ozar's real intention was just to take this opportunity to eliminate some Kurdish extremists who opposed national reconciliation and only wanted independence but not autonomy. However, in terms of law, as long as these people did not take action, they could not be sure that they were extremists, and there was no reason to eliminate them by illegal means.

This is just like when a person has the intention to commit a crime but does not commit a crime, he cannot be convicted. Affected by this, the US authorities have already suffered a legal loss when he was holding on to the Turkish government.

Mrs. Lobring did not deny this, and it was the first important topic of the entire meeting.

When Mrs. Lobring proposed that without proving that the Turkish authorities did not commit crimes against humanity, the United States should adopt a relatively conservative basic strategy, that is, while actively aiding Turkey, it would not fulfill other alliance obligations, such as declaring war on the Republic that invaded Turkey, other participants agreed and supported this view, all of whom the United States had no reason to fight with another superpower for an ally suspected of killing innocent civilians.

This highly consistent attitude illustrates two issues.

Among the senior officials of the US federal government, many people believe that they should not fight with the Republic, at least there is no reason to fight with the Republic for a less important allied country. Although it cannot be said that these people are short-sighted, it at least proves that at least some of the interest groups behind these officials believe that they should maintain good relations with the Republic. Instead, all interest groups need to realize their interests through war.

Second, the US military generals have little grasp of victory, and some even believe that the United States will lose the war in the case of a full-scale war. Although Duchwie clearly mentioned when discussing this issue that the Republic cannot have an advantage in all directions, and it is even more impossible to win in all directions, he does not have much hope for the combat effectiveness of the Turkish army and believes that he should pay more attention to another strategic direction.

Influenced by both, Mrs. Lobring's view was not radical.

This also reflects a characteristic of this American Iron Lady, that is, she will not be influenced by mainstream public opinion.

Compared with Landers, Mrs. Lobring's biggest feature is when making decisions.

After discussing the situation, Mrs. Lobring did not continue to solicit opinions, but made a very decisive decision. The United States would provide active cooperation for the International War Tribunal to investigate crimes against humanity in Turkey, impose restrictive sanctions on Turkey in accordance with the resolution passed by the United Nations Security Council, and make direct diplomatic contact with the Republic to make final efforts to peacefully resolve the Kurdish issue.

Mo Yong doubted that Mrs. Lobrin was very arbitrary.

After making this series of decisions, she turned the topic to the upcoming war, that is, how much military force the United States needs to invest to achieve victory after the failure of its peace efforts.

This time, the main spokesperson was only one pound, that is, Duqiwei.

According to Duchwie, because the head of state of the Republic has obtained the most conspiring war authorization, it is a convention. The Republic's authorities will make their last diplomatic efforts before the 26 Ding operation, that is, to issue the final communication to the Turkish authorities in the form of a formal diplomatic note. However, the early military deployment of the Republic's army has been completed, and it can invest 60,000 ground troops and 6 aircraft carrier battle groups after the war begins, and invest the fourth combat unit and the combat troops of the Air Force within the time of the front. In this case, the Turkish army's hope of victory is basically zero, and Türkiye is likely to collapse within a week.

There is only one way to avoid letting Türkiye be ruined and send troops immediately.

Duqiwei had no hope for the combat effectiveness of the Turkish army. According to his statement, the combat effectiveness of the Turkish army was not even as good as that of the South Korean army back then. Although Turkey is mountainous and the southeastern region is even more rugged, the Republic's Army has long adapted to the combat method of not relying on road traffic networks, and proved its mountain warfare capabilities in the Peninsula War and the Indian War. After the modernization and adaptation, the scale of the Republic's Army was greatly reduced, but its combat effectiveness was comprehensively improved, especially the comprehensive combat capabilities of each unit far exceeded that of the Indian War. In order to attract the attention of Mrs. Lobrin, Duqiwei had no reservations when talking about this issue, and said it very directly that as long as the support forces of the Republic's Air Force were deployed in time, the combat units could capture Ankara within a week.

Mrs. Lobring did not doubt Duchwie's judgment, but felt that the problem was not that simple.

Duchway did not avoid the question raised by Mrs. Lobring, namely whether the Republic Air Force could be deployed in time and whether the Republic Army could use all the three combat units deployed to the war zone on the Turkish battlefield.

According to Duchway, the Republic Air Force has the largest strategic transport aircraft group in the world. In addition, the tactical transport aircraft group affiliated to the Republic Army Air Force, the Republic's air transport capacity is definitely greater than that of the United States. Because six aircraft carrier combat groups have been deployed to the front line, the Republic's Air Force only needs to deploy concave and left and right combat aircraft to the front line to ensure air supremacy and complete air support combat missions. In this case, even if it only relies on air transport, it can complete the basic deployment within hours.

In terms of ground troops, because the first combat unit, the second combat unit and the ninth combat unit have entered the war zone, the Republic can use all three combat units on the Turkish battlefield in the early stage. In order to deal with possible threats, the Republic will send a fourth combat unit to the war zone as fast as possible, that is, the tenth combat unit that has left the training site. As long as the tenth combat unit can shoulder the defensive combat tasks in the direction of the Golan Heights, the Republic will first concentrate the forces of the three combat units to defeat Türkiye.

To prove this, Duqiwei mentioned one thing specifically.

That is, the commander of the tenth battle was the brigade commander of the Shao Brigade who had resisted 24 times the Indian army's attack in Ranchi, and the officers and soldiers of the tenth combat unit also came from three airborne brigades. In terms of defensive combat capabilities, I am afraid that there is no unit in the world above the tenth battle unit. The most conservative estimate is that relying on the Syrian army to build a defensive position for decades, the tenth combat unit can block the Israeli army of more than two in the direction of the Golan Heights, or forge defenses at layers of layers, and finally retreat to Damascus and persist until reinforcements arrive.

Although Mrs. Lobring did not understand military issues very well, it was impossible for the generals participating in the Federation to understand Duchwit's meaning.

During the Peninsula War, the Republic made the airborne brigade persist for several days, which eventually led to the annihilation of the two most elite divisions of the US Marine Corps. Even the military flag became the spoils of the Republic's army. The strong brigade blocked the Indian army's retreat route in Ranchi, creating an opportunity for the Republic's army to sweep the Ganges plain. Mu Yong doubted that the tenth combat unit transformed from the airborne troop should not be underestimated.

More importantly, Pei Chengyi was the one who commanded the Republic's army to fight this time.

The Peninsula War is Pei Chengyi's famous work, the Indian War is Pei Chengyi's carrying work, and will the Middle East War become Pei Chengyi's final work? Whether it is possible or not, one thing is certain, that is, Pei Chengyi will not easily miss the opportunity to win, and he will use the best way to win.

What is Pei Chengyi best at?

Almost every American soldier, especially the American general who wore the star after the Chinese New Year, knew that in large-scale regional wars, Pei Chengyi's specialty was to attack the east and west. In terms of the Republic's military theory, it was to concentrate superior forces on local battlefields to achieve the maximum victory. In terms of an idiom in the East, it was Tian Ji's horse racing.

This is what Duchwie wants to express.

To allow the tenth combat unit to participate in the war, Pei Chengyi certainly hopes to use this force that is extremely powerful and famous for its defensive combat capabilities to defend the fragile defense line in the south, and then concentrate superior forces to attack Turkey. As long as it can capture Ankara within a week, overthrow the Turkish regime, and arrest several Turkish officials, the Republic's authorities can provide more "conclusive and powerful" evidence to the International War Tribunal of the Hague, thus nailing the Turkish authorities to a historical shame frame and providing legal basis for supporting a pro-China Turkish regime. From a military perspective, after killing Turkey, Pei Chengyi has every reason to use the troops of allies such as Iran, Iraq and Syria to occupy Turkey.※Heart's heart concentrates his troops to attack the Go Heights in order to help Syria recover the lost airline Ye Fu Israel.

Because Israel has no strategic depth, after the Republic's army attacked the Golan Heights, no one could guarantee that the war would stop in the Jordan Valley. According to the Republic's army's assault capabilities, Sun Bushi could not use Sun Bushi to fight from the north to the south and completely eliminate this Jewish country.

In general, this martial art that starts north and then south can provide the best results for the Republic.

The problem is, Mrs. Lobring is not the kind of person who has no opinions.

When talking about this issue, Mrs. Lobring raised a very sharp question, namely, why does the Republic not first deal with Israel without strategic depth, but rather against Türkiye, which has a much larger land area.

Duqiwei was not stumped and immediately gave three reasons.

The combat effectiveness of the Israel Defense Force is much stronger than that of the Turkish National Army, and its strength is not below the average level of the Republic's army; and the Israeli army controls the Golan Heights and has a defensive advantage, so the Republic's army will definitely encounter a lot of trouble when attacking. Second, the situation in the Middle East is more complicated, and Israel is backed by the Mediterranean, so it is easy to get strategic assistance provided by the United States. It is difficult for the Republic's army to gain an advantage here. Third, the Golan Heights belong to the Arab-Israeli dispute, and not only the Syrians but also the Israelis live on the Golan Heights. When ethnic conflicts have not intensified, or the Republic has not obtained conclusive evidence, there is no reason to use the Golan Heights issue to deal with Israel.

Duchway's explanation basically satisfies Mrs. Lobring.

At this time, the meeting entered the third stage, namely how to solve this problem.

This time, the person is talking about the Chairman of the Joint Conference and a four-star general from the Navy.

Mo Yong doubted that the situation was not very optimistic, but there was no need to be pessimistic.

Because of the mobilization in advance, the six aircraft carrier battle groups of the US Navy have arrived in the war zone. Among them, three aircraft carrier battle groups have guarded the Mande Strait south of the Red Sea. According to the Admiral's explanation, as long as the aircraft carrier battle group of the Republic's Navy cannot enter the Red Sea, they can only dispatch carrier-based fighters to strike Israel and northwestern Turkey, and cannot use the fearsome large-caliber electromagnetic guns. The other three aircraft carrier battle groups are active in the Eastern Mediterranean. If everything goes well, the last three aircraft carrier battle groups of the Navy will arrive in the Eastern Mediterranean around the next month.

In the Air Force, three tactical aviation corps and thugs have arrived in Turkey, two tactical aviation corps have arrived in Italy, and two tactical aviation corps have been deployed in Bulgaria and Romania. Because the Greek authorities are unwilling to allow US fighter jets deployed in their territory to perform combat missions supporting Turkey, they are temporarily unable to deploy tactical aviation corps to Greece and Southern Cyprus. In addition, there are bombers of a strategic aviation corps in the UK, "the tanker jets of a supportive aviation corps are deployed in Malta. At this point, more than US fighter jets deployed near the war zone, and about four of them are tactical fighters.

In the army, the thugs deployed in Europe, the 3rd Infantry Division, the 3rd Infantry Division, the 4th Infantry Division, the 7th Infantry Division, the 7th Infantry Division, the 8th Assault Division and the 8th Infantry Division who remained in the United States all started mobilizing. However, it is very regrettable that except for the vanguard of the Armored Division and the 3rd Infantry Division, which were mobilized first, which had arrived in Turkey, other troops could not reach the theater this month. Some of the combat troops could only arrive in mid-July at the earliest, and may even be delayed until the end of July.

On the Marine Corps, the strategic delivery fleet of the Marine Division transported the thugs. It has reached the Eastern Mediterranean and can send more than 20,000 Marine officers and soldiers to the beach in Tel Aviv at any time. The 2nd Marine Division has assembled in Djibouti and is waiting for the fleet to be sent to the front line to arrive. The strategic delivery fleet from Australia will arrive in Djibouti at the end of the month, and it is expected that the 2nd Marine Division will be sent to Israel by July. In other words, the Marine Corps will once again act as a vanguard and send the main force to the battlefield in front of the army.

In terms of the Sky Army, various mobilizations have begun in full swing, but the combat operations of the Sky Army have been greatly restricted. In the words of the Chairman of the Joint Conference, if the Sky Army is used to attack the Republic's military space system, the emergency mechanism of the Sky Army of the Republic will be immediately activated, and the losses of the US Sky Army will not be very small, and it may even trigger a devastating war between two kilograms of superpowers throwing strategic nuclear weapons to each other.

In general, the US military's preparations were orderly and were proceeding completely according to the plan.

The problem is also here. Because Landers did not obtain the war authorization of Congress, he could only mobilize military level according to the law, and not emergency war mobilization. To be honest, because according to the American Xiangmelon Law, the president can only use the Marines in peacetime. This is also the main reason why the Marines, as an independent group of troops, actually accompanied various combat units such as aviation. Therefore, even if the war breaks out immediately, the United States can only dispatch marines, but not other combat forces.

In a sense, Landers' "speak" in Congress is even more important.

When entering the fourth topic of the meeting, that is, the last topic, Mrs. Lobring only asked Duchwie to stay. To be precise, only the communication signals with Duchwie were retained.
Chapter completed!
