Ballistic Silence of Special Years

Chapter 1246 Ghost Fleet

Inside the Red Side Joint Staff Department.

Li Zheng stood in front of the live screen, staring at the batch of J15s that had taken off.

His brows furrowed.

Because he knew that there were still many variables in J15's attack.

if--

If the captain of Huang Fang's King Kong-class destroyer formation immediately orders the SH-60 to take off after filling up with fuel, he may find the J15 carrier-based aircraft formation quietly approaching from the north.

This possibility exists.

But Li Zheng firmly arranged this sneak attack tactic because he was familiar with the navy.

These are the reasons why he was solemnly sent to the Navy, and why he participated in the escort. When he came back for further training, he went to the Air Force and the Navy, and studied on a ship.

This is the key and significance of cultivating joint combat command talents.

Young people like Li Zheng will be the future senior commanders of joint operations.

As a senior commander in the new era, he must be cross-professional and understand the combat characteristics of each service and arms. He must not only understand his own people, but also the enemy's characteristics and combat methods.

As for Wen Zhaohui, Li Zheng was very familiar with his command style.

It has been a long time since the confrontation with Cheng Brigade. Wen Zhaohui may learn from the experience and change his playing style.

But some things never change.

The character of a unit commander will affect the combat style of the unit he leads, and a person's character will also affect his command style.

It is not that easy to change.

There is an old saying that goes, it is easy to change a country but hard to change its nature.

Li Zheng judged from the beginning that Wen Zhaohui wanted to use his small skills to achieve greater results in the prologue battle, and try to eliminate the red side's maritime power as much as possible.

In reasoning, the yellow side is not the main opponent of the red side at all.

The main opponent is Blue.

Before the blue side takes action, the red side must conserve its strength as much as possible to avoid consuming too much.

Because there may be more bad battles to come.

There are so many strategies available in Blue’s combat toolbox.

The island chain tactics that have been used for many years are not for nothing. Not to mention the island chain from north to south, something may happen to the west.

All of this must be considered comprehensively within the scope of the scenario when formulating tactics.

Therefore, using the lowest cost to eat up one of Huang's naval forces in the opening battle is what Li Zheng must do. It will not only boost morale, but also play a huge role in disrupting the blue's tactical rhythm.

Now, this opening scene has entered the closing stage.

All the previous tactical arrangements were just for this moment, to create an attack opportunity for this J15 formation.

"report!"

A staff officer came over and saluted.

"According to our surveillance satellite reconnaissance, we found that four fighter jets took off from the Nabo military base five minutes ago. According to the aircraft model analysis, they were Huang Fang's F-4B multi-purpose fighter jets."

"F-2B?" Li Zheng was stunned for a moment. He turned back and looked at the laptop on the table. He called up the electronic map and took a look at it. "Notify the 022 missile boat formation immediately and ask them to speed back to port. These aircraft are Go for them, especially 022 in the formation, move forward as fast as possible, don’t wait for 056A!”

"Yes!"

The staff officer saluted and left.

He asked Li Zheng seriously: "I'm not worried about the 022s. After all, they are fast, but the speed of the 056A is too slow. I'm afraid I won't be able to escape."

Li Zheng's eyes remained on the screen, and he sighed and said: "Well, the S-400 system we deployed in the east has entered the standby state. Before the war started, I had thought about whether I would be pursued by the blue team's air power. But after much deliberation, there is no good way. If a whole destroyer formation is sent over, I am afraid that Huang Fang will also ambush him. Sending missile boats like 022 there can confuse the opponent and is fast. Even if Huang Fang sent air power to counterattack, but he didn't dare to enter our interception range. Huang Fang's planes are not cheap, unless he dared to rush in and save his life."

The exchange of lives that Li Zheng talks about is that if the F-2B dares to forcefully enter the attack range of the S-400 and risk being shot down by the S-400 to destroy the slow-moving 056A frigate, then they will definitely join forces. Get on several fighter jets, and no one can escape.

It is difficult to judge whether Wen Zhaohui would dare to use Li Zheng in this life-exchange tactic, but a good commander is good at calculating battlefield gains and losses. Even if Wen Zhaohui used the F-2B fleet to exchange lives, he would not gain anything. The advantage is that he can only get one 056A on his side, but it will prevent any of his four destroyers from returning to their home port.

056A is very difficult to escape and there is nothing you can do about it.

At present, Li Zheng has dispatched two 052D ships to a port in the east to meet the 022 missile boat and 056A formation.

The anti-missile interception system on the 052D ship, with the support of the Chinese Aegis, was able to stop Huang Fang's fighter formation from attacking. However, the opponent's flying speed was too fast. The flagship 022A in the 056 formation might have been attacked before it could reach the safe range.

Whether he can survive unscathed depends on Wen Zhaohui's own decision.

He kicked the ball to his feet and waited for the blue team's reaction no matter how he served.

……

North of Xianlai Island.

The captain of the King Kong-class destroyer standing on the bridge felt vaguely uneasy at this time.

There seemed to be no movement from the 001 aircraft carrier formation. And the red side, apart from sending a formation of 022 missile boats to deal with themselves, actually turned around and ran away?

That's it?

However, at this time, he could not communicate with the several Canglong-class submarines ambushing northwest of Xianlai Island.

Because although he can send information to the Soryu-class submarine through long-wave communication, the other party cannot reply. Once he replies, the signal will not escape the search of the aircraft carrier formation.

These Soryu-class submarines are the main theme of the opening battle, and they are just bait.

Therefore, I would rather die than let them complete their mission.

This point was made clear by Commander Wen Zhaohui before the war.

He couldn't help but walked behind the radar soldier again and glanced at the radar scanning screen.

It seemed very quiet.

No ships were found, and no red planes were seen.

Ok?

How could this be?

He returned to his seat, picked up the night vision binoculars, and looked around through the glass.

The sea was calm all around, but it was in vain to do so. This ship was a shield ship, and the shield ship's radar system didn't detect any enemies. How could I see it with a pair of night vision binoculars?

It's just a habitual action caused by anxiety.

"Enemy plane found!"

The radar soldier suddenly shouted.

This shocked everyone present.

"what's the situation?!"

The captain immediately rushed behind the radar soldier and stared at the screen.

"16 enemy planes, direction 271, distance 81..."

On the screen, a large number of bright spots appeared on it, rushing towards him from the rear right.

"Everyone is in combat mode!"

The captain roared and gave the order.

Suddenly, the radar soldiers discovered that the fighter planes seemed to have turned around and were leaving at high speed.

"They're leaving!"

"what?!"

The captain is also a seasoned guy.

This batch of red fighter jets suddenly appeared 81 kilometers away from their own ship formation without being detected by their own radar. The only reason was the latter - flying low and skimming the sea.

Well, their sudden U-turn means it's an evacuation!

He was right.

Just a moment later, a large number of aircraft fleets suddenly disappeared from the screen, as if they had never appeared.

"Take off the carrier-based early warning aircraft!"

At this time, he thought of the SH-60.

Now it must take off immediately with warning.

Only when the helicopter takes off with an early warning and unlocks the detection capability of low-altitude sea-skimming flights can these red fighter jets be seen again.

Moreover, there was one thing that made him even more frightened - the other party suddenly turned around and evacuated, which meant that they had launched the anti-ship missiles mounted on the plane!

Where did the 16 red fighter jets come from? !

Suddenly, he thought of the No. 001 aircraft carrier formation.

Damn!

It's J15.

I don’t know whether it is YJ-83 or YJ-91 mounted!

I have just withstood a round of saturation attacks, and now the vertical hair system is replenishing ammunition...

Launching anti-ship missiles at such a close range is not as easy to intercept as the previous batch of YJ-022 launched from a long distance by 83.

The interception just now scared me into a cold sweat. Can I escape unscathed this time? !

He is really not sure anymore!

The most terrible thing is that the two carrier-based SH-60s sent out before have returned for refueling at this time!

Just missed the warning.

That's right!

The opponent's commander is definitely a master tactician!

Captain Huang Fang felt the hairs on his face stand up.

　Ask for a monthly pass!
