Chapter 1070 Armed Landing
The rebels occupied this place three days ago in the eastern coastal city of Malindi, and unfortunately, these crazy local tyrants brazenly took details of Malindi's Chinese merchants.
In this way, the Chinese Federal African Garrison Command, which originally planned to induce but did not issue a disagreement, had to issue an attack order to the soldiers on the front line.
After re-debugging, Wei Cunyang, who had just been transferred to the African Expeditionary Force, handed me the headphones connected to the communication device: "Okay, I think this frequency should not conflict with the frequency we use to forward wired telephone messages. But I am bluntly speaking, the signals here are a lot of interference. If you connect two different channels at the same time, there will probably be a lot of noise."
"Can you not forward the messages from those wired phones?" Shi Yu pointed to the telephone lines connected to the spare parts box of the communication device and asked, "Anyway, even if we can't hear the air defense forces, our carrier-based aircraft will probably not be threatened by ground air defense firepower. This information is optional for logging in, and it is worse than..."
Due to the exposure of the zombie incident, Shi Yu and Commander Wang were transferred from Lop Nur and could not continue to serve there. This trip to East Africa is also a chance for Shi Yu to make up for his merits.
The second half of the words were swallowed back into Shi Yu's throat because he found an exaggerated expression on Wei Cunyang's face.
"What does your expression mean?" Shi Yu asked tentatively, "Did you say something wrong just now?"
The city of Malindi has not had a good defense, and after the rebels occupied it, it was difficult to use air defense weapons that they were not familiar with to deal with the naval aviation forces of the Chinese Federation.
"Of course you didn't say anything wrong. You really don't need to eavesdrop on the communications of the air defense forces in the city. Most of those guys ran away!" Wei Cunyang patted a telephone, "But, do you really don't know that these wired phones have other uses?"
Shi Yu spread his hands: "What's the other purpose?"
"Oh, you are not sensitive enough to the outside world and never know how to inquire about information," Wei Cunyang looked amused and crying. "You should know that the command centers of the city's defense headquarters originally had wired telephones to contact each other, and these telephone lines were originally managed by the communications brigade under the command.
"However, the day before yesterday, there was some technical problem with the Communications Brigade, so all the telephone lines of the defenders were temporarily connected to the telephone network with a very redundant air defense communication system."
In other words, the Chinese Federal Army is now transferring communications from the rebel troops that the whole city is still planning to resist to the landing troops, which is why Wei Cunyang insists on using this communication device.
This is true, Shi Yu thought that if he could eavesdrop on the other party's wired telephone network at the beginning of the login operation, it would be like he directly got the latest opponent's defense position map.
Because the party conducting anti-login operations often contacts all defense forces when determining that the login operation is about to begin to verify that the communication is smooth.
Thinking of this, Shi Yu didn't plan to continue talking nonsense. He grabbed the high-power telescope he had brought from China and ran to the window.
After the first round of air strikes, the landing operation began immediately. This is the usual combat style of the Chinese Federal Army.
In the telescope, Shi Yu could see a large number of shadows lined up on the gray-blue sea antenna in the distance, all of which were dock landing ships that began to open the dock.
Hundreds of armed landing craft and armored hovercraft dragged out snow-white narrow fan-shaped tracks on the sea surface, quickly crossing the intersection of the river and sea water at the estuary of the Amazon and approaching the port area of Malindi.
Now, the port area is completely empty. The streets that were once crowded with all kinds of people, now there are no ghosts, and only the barricades and bunkers piled up by the rebels are still there.
It is no wonder that after the Chinese fleet approached Malindi, most of the city's residents had already slipped away, and by the way, the rebel soldiers responsible for guarding the main roads made a fortune.
Behind the small landing ship, there are more than a dozen larger figures, probably tank landing ships preparing to land on the beach.
These larger ships were slightly slower than landing craft and hovercraft, and landed far behind. There were dozens of multi-function helicopters taking off from the dock landing ships, which were also approaching the coast above the landing craft group.
Although there was no blow in the previous air strikes, there were sporadic resistance in the port area, and some stubborn rebels fought fiercely with the Chinese soldiers based on the alleyways.
The shore defense artillery originally arranged in the shore bunker had probably been destroyed by the aviation bombs and air-to-ground missiles of the carrier-based aircraft of the Hualian Navy, and most of the undestroyed shore defense artillery positions were empty.
Some places occasionally burst into a spark, which was the fire of the artillery bombing the artillery before escaping.
Soon, the first batch of landing craft arrived at the dock of the port, and a large group of infantry and armored vehicles spread around the streets and alleys of the port area like unblocked traces.
The resistance encountered by the Hualian Marines was very limited, and there was no movement in the fortifications in most blocks. Perhaps the rebels guarding there had already escaped with "talk".
However, other people who were gathering seemed to arouse Shi Yu's interest, who were traveling from west to east, and they were all riding sideboard motorcycles.
This rebel army was called the Kenya Army, under the banner of expelling foreign colonists and saving Kenya. It secretly received support from some foreign chaebols, but it was too stupid to take action against Chinese businessmen.
It is difficult for Shi Yu to understand the idea of such a person: challenge China's majesty? His brain is broken.
However, this so-called ** army still surprised Shi Yu, because they actually owned a cavalry brigade.
This unit is not the type of unit with the word "cavalry" on its number, but the veritable "cavalry". These black men rushed to the battlefield on their side motorcycles and then fought on foot. They were almost exactly the same as the European "dragoons" in the 18th century.
Seeing them rushing to the port area with weapons, Shi Yu was a little surprised. Facing the Chinese Federal Army, these rebel soldiers dressed like beggars were willing to take the initiative to launch a counterattack.
No matter what they are doing, in short, it is admirable to dare to counter the assault.
"Oh, are they these poor people?" A young officer suddenly spoke behind Shi Yu. He then realized that the other party was also observing around with a telescope. "The courage is commendable, but I'm afraid they don't have the chance to shoot."
"What does it mean? I think the landing troops do not seem to have powerful killing weapons such as suppressing artillery or sub-compartment bullets." Shi Yu asked. "Do you think they dare not rush up, or..."
The facts quickly answered his question.
When these indigenous people began to assemble in the transportation station west of the port area and were preparing to launch a counter-assault, a stream of white smoke suddenly rose from the landing fleet on the distant sea.
The experience of the war immediately told Shi Yu that it was the tail flame when the rocket was fired.
Hundreds of rockets rose from the decks of ships that Shi Yu originally thought were tank landing ships. Just like the rain of arrows shot by the archers of ancient arrow formations, they drew a very large-length parabola in the air and smashed into Malindi very accurately.
Most of the rebel soldiers who were getting off the train were swallowed up by the sudden explosion of fireballs before they could react.
"I really didn't expect that these are near-shore fire support ships!" Shi Yu put his hands on the window glass and said to himself, "It seems that the army has been preparing to take the initiative, but it is only because of the UN's diplomatic procedures that are forced to remain unmoved."
Shi Yu is demoted now and doesn't know much about it.
"That's of course. So thanks to the two of us, these good things will not turn into scrap iron in the dock, but will have the opportunity to come here and spit it out!" the young officer smiled, "We will always be winners!"
"However, these rebels' bullshit motorcycle infantry didn't look good. They just had a rocket. I thought I needed to use an armed helicopter to deal with them."
Although this officer was frivolous, he was right. Just by looking at the array, you can tell that the rebels lacked practical experience. This can be seen from the rebel soldiers who got out of the car without dodging after hearing the sound of rockets bounced through the air.
In the face of the deterrence of dense rocket rains, the discipline of these indigenous Africans quickly collapsed. Most people who were still moving towards the port on the streets chose to turn their cars and sneak into the torrent of defeated soldiers.
As the Chinese Federal Marine Corps quickly poured into the port area, the screams of carrier-based jet engines also came from the sky. This means that a second wave of air raids is about to begin.
"It's time for us to leave," the officer pulled out the colorful telephone lines one by one from the communications device's spare box. "This building will not continue to exist for more than thirty minutes at most."
Of course we have to leave, and we have to hurry up.
Now, Shi Yu can see dozens of armed hovercraft full of soldiers advancing along the river. It seems that he wants to detour the defense line of the National Defense Force from the north. If he walks slowly, we will not be able to leave even if we fight back.
"Are you sure we can leave?" Shi Yu looked at his feet worriedly, "Now the roads in the city are basically blocked, and there are broken soldiers running around everywhere. I think they may not recognize any officers."
"Don't worry, I promise with my personality that you can sit comfortably in Malindi's guest room and take a hot shower in six hours. Trust me!"
After the Chinese Marines invaded the port area, the entire central city immediately fell into complete chaos like a termite nest filled with water. All the organizations, order, and systems were completely gone.
Shi Yu put away the communication device, then hurriedly ran from the narrow stairwell filled with garbage onto the street. Because he ran too fast, he almost slipped on the stairs several times.
These stairs have not been maintained for many years. Either they are missing a piece here or they are cracked there, and they will be tripped if they are not careful. However, there is nothing they can do about running so fast.
The building leased by the temporary air defense command is also one of the important targets of the second round of air strikes. Within half an hour, bombs may come to us at any time.
After rushing onto the street, they ran south in one breath. They walked around two rows of snake-belly wire mesh in a row, crossed a simple obstacle on the street, and ran more than 200 meters.
Seeing that we had already left the dangerous distance, we stopped and started to breathe with our chest covering our chests. Just now, we had a total running distance of nearly a thousand meters, and we were all running at the speed of sprinting. This was really unbearable.
"Okay, we have completed all the tasks in this super garbage dump. I think it's time to discuss the transportation to leave here." After feeling that my chest was no longer so stuffy, Shi Yu supported the dirty wall of the residential building with his hands and leaned against a cement tank and refused to stop immediately.
"Okay, tell me how we are leaving the city and how we leave Kenya?" It turned out that Shi Yu was not the officer in command of the battle, but the intelligence officer responsible for infiltrating Malindi to inspect the enemy situation.
As soon as Shi Yu got together, he heard a low noise of friction between the tires and the asphalt road in front of him. The pickup truck that another officer called him had arrived just now.
"this……"
"This is our means of transportation," the young officer walked over from behind Shi Yu and sat in the passenger seat. "Yes, I have learned from the lessons I learned from being trapped in South Africa last time and decided to give up taking a helicopter."
Now the entire airspace near Kenya is basically within the range of the US carrier-based aviation. If they fly helicopters from the city, no matter how superb your driving skills are, they may still be killed by carrier-based fighters performing combat patrols.
If they use radar-guided medium-range air-to-air missiles, they may not know how they died, not to mention that helicopters need hangars or large transport vehicles to park, and these targets are very attractive targets of attack.
Of course, there may still be some small-caliber anti-aircraft gun positions in the city, and there is also a risk of being shot down by the ground.
Shi Yu also squeezed into the cab and squeezed directly beside the officer. When the driver with a white face stepped on the accelerator, a choking exhaust gas immediately filled the narrow cab with the sound of the engine starting. Shi Yu had to cough a few times.
Shi Yu covered his mouth and nose with his sleeve, looking extremely uncomfortable, only the driver was completely indifferent, as if the pungent waste gas was just harmless water vapor.
It's no wonder that he probably drove the assembly truck produced by underground workshops for a long time. After repeated "influence", he has become accustomed to this terrible strange smell.
Since there was no smoke exhaust device in the cab, Shi Yu waited until the exhaust gas dissipated a little before putting down his right hand and replied: "Yes, yes... cough cough cough... we took this car to the west, and we will be safe after we arrived in Nairobi."
Now that the Chinese affairs are intervening in Kenya, the United States is also eyeing him. Shi Yu doesn't want to be hit because of a "misunderstanding".
"Oh my God, are you crazy? Is there an air defense identification sign on the roof of this car? Do you want to be accidentally bombarded by your own people?" Shi Yu suddenly remembered this and immediately wanted to lean out to take a look.
The officer dragged Shi Yu back: "No, of course not. You have to know that our army uses radio identification codes together, not air defense identification signs. Besides, even if there is an identification sign, I dare not let someone apply it to the roof of the car, as this will cause suspicion."
If the rebels see him, Shi Yu will expose his identity if he does this.
"Then are there any way you can prove our identity to the carrier-based fighter jet?"
The officer waved his hand to Shi Yu: "Of course not." He showed an indifferent smile, as if he was talking about whether there was rain today. "Mr. Special Commissioner, you have to sit firmly now. We will leave here as fast as possible later."
As the officer said, he tied a simple seat belt for Shi Yu, which was actually a canvas fixed to the seat.
To be honest, Shi Yu felt crazy. When fighter bombers were flying all over the sky and the explosion sounded like firecrackers, he drove an armed pickup without any identification signs on the street and ran wildly at eighty yards.
This behavior is like a pilot in the revolutionary army in the sky greeting: "I may be an important target, come and beat me up!"
Yes, if Shi Yu was the pilot of those carrier-based aircraft hovering in the sky, once he saw this target, his first reaction was to send an identity identification code and ask for identity identification.
Once he doesn't get an immediate response, he will definitely launch an air-to-ground missile without hesitation. In any case, the air-to-ground missile is definitely faster than the classic cars.
However, both the pilot and the young officer had a calm expression on their faces, as if aviation bombs or air-to-ground missiles were destined to fall on their heads.
At first, Shi Yu was puzzled by this, but when the broken car, which was as loud as a jet, passed through the unguarded entrance and exit on the inner area isolation wall and rushed into the illegal building complex in the outer area as dense as weeds, he realized it.
The broken car rushed in the shanty towns that were denser than the rainforest. In order to avoid the shacks built with wooden boards, broken bricks and sandbags, the driver had to constantly make exaggerated turns in the game in the narrow alleyway where only three people could be allowed to run parallel.
On several occasions, Shi Yu was almost thrown out of the cab by a large turn of more than 100 degrees. Thanks to his homemade seat belts in advance, Shi Yu was spared the personal experience of being a human shell smashed into the shack.
I have to admit that this is indeed an excellent way to avoid air threats.
If you want to hit small vehicles running around like crazy rats in dense buildings, only attack aircraft can do it. Among the Chinese troops who set out this expedition, the naval aviation forces only had inflexible combat bombers and no attack aircraft.
Shi Yu thought depressedly: "Maybe I am the first unlucky guy who is afraid of being attacked by the air force of his country. If it weren't for making meritorious contributions, who would have done such a job!"
