Chapter 0709: A Trigger, Dilemma(1/2)
"Attention everyone, the storm is rising!"
In the command cabin, Zheng Weida stared at the screen seriously and gave the order for the warship to come out of the sea.
Liu Shiba stood by the ladder and waited quietly. The Guam base was less than five miles ahead.
At this time, it’s two o’clock in the evening!
"On the 3rd, the fifty nautical miles around Guam will be opened as a shielding area for radio, pulse signals, and other signal sources.
During the attack on Guam, the outside world cannot be allowed to know what is happening here."
Liu Shiba raised his hand to look at his watch, turned to No. 3 and said cautiously.
After saying that, Liu Shiba looked at No. 3's somewhat pale cheeks and couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart. He raised his hand and rubbed No. 3's fair and sickly neck for a while.
Then, Liu Shiba raised his hand and gently touched No. 3's forehead. There was a slit there, the third eye.
No. 3's body twisted slightly, but in the end he still resisted and did not move away, speaking with his lips and teeth:
"How long will it take to capture Guam? The global signal source is very powerful and cannot be blocked for long."
Liu Shiba sighed, shook his head and said:
"I don't know how long it will take, but if we don't destroy those land-based missiles, it will be slower.
If you are reckless, or if you don't care that the storm's engine cannot withstand the huge pressure, you can turn on the cannon of the dimensional space cannon for indiscriminate bombardment.
In that case, it would only take ten minutes to level it. If we want to protect those land-based missiles, it may take longer, and accidents are not ruled out."
No. 3 left no trace, gently squeezed Liu Shiba's restless hand, and gritted his teeth and said:
"You want to break your bones, don't you?"
Liu Shiba's face froze and he smiled:
"No! You don't believe me even if I tell you. This hand was definitely not controlled by me, it was his own behavior."
No. 3 was stunned and said:
"How shameless!"
"Okay, how long is it expected to be blocked?"
Liu Shiba's face was straight.
No. 3 had a straight face and explained seriously:
"The area is too big. You also require that the Guam waters be shielded for fifty nautical miles. According to the computer program controlled by me and the satellites connected to China, the shielding can last for thirty minutes at most."
Liu Shiba frowned when he heard this and said nothing.
"Ba Ye!"
Behind him, Zhang Guanglie called out.
Liu Shiba looked back curiously and said doubtfully:
"Is there something wrong with your fighter?"
Zhang Guanglie shook his head and said:
"All fighter jet personnel are in place. As long as the fighter jets are sent to the storm deck, they can enter the battle at any time."
"Oh, you called me?"
Zhang Guanglie lowered his head and thought for a moment, then relaxed his frown and said with a sinister smile:
"Guam, I've read a lot of classic battle theories, how about I explain them in detail? Master Ba, you think about it yourself, how to attack."
Liu Shiba rolled his eyes and said in surprise:
"You, a civil servant, actually study this?"
Zhang Guanglie said with a self-deprecating smile:
"If you don't have long-term worries, you will always have immediate worries. Although I am the local emperor of Xuchang, I always pay attention to the international trends. As long as the time is ripe, it may be my opportunity.
I knew that China and the United States would have a war, but I didn’t expect it to come so soon.”
Liu Shiba looked at Zhang Guanglie approvingly and said:
“As expected, he was born stealing aluminum pots from manhole covers, and he has an extremely keen intuition about survival.
Okay, then tell me about Guam, I really don’t know much about Guam.”
Around them, Qin Da, Huang Zhong, Huo Da, Chen Hongzhi, Chen Haowen, Liu Qianqian and Feng Qingwu also turned to look.
Zhang Guanglie took out a cigarette and lit it, blew in the ashes, recalled it, and said softly:
"The geographical location of Guam is in the Pacific Ocean and the Mariana Islands.
Guam is the largest island in the archipelago, thirty miles long and fourteen miles wide.
In 1898, Guam was snatched from the Spanish island by the newly born free United States of America, and it has been owned by the United States ever since.
Today, Guam is the largest naval base and supply transfer station of the United States in the Pacific.
Its centralized inventory of supplies, arms, oil, and food is enough for ten aircraft carrier formations, ten army divisions, and three fighter air fleets to carry out high-intensity combat supplies for three years.
In other words, all American navies in the Pacific can continue to receive supplies without relying on the mainland."
Guam's Apra deep-water port is suitable for large aircraft carriers to berth; there are also two large airports on the island for long-range bombers to take off and land.
Even if Guam is attacked, U.S. fighter jets and bombers can arrive in Guam within half an hour to support the battle."
Liu Shiba's eyes flashed and he nodded:
"I know all this, you tell me something I don't know."
Zhang Guanglie glanced at No. 3 and said solemnly:
"According to official statements, there is only one Marine Corps stationed in Guam, totaling 1,500 people.
In fact, this is not the case at all. I have a good friend who immigrated to Australia and later to the United States.
He had a son who was born in the United States and later served in the military and was stationed in Guam."
Liu Shiba looked at Zhang Guanglie, smiled slightly, and said with a smile:
"What did you find out?"
Zhang Guanglie raised his head proudly and said quietly and mysteriously:
"In fact, Guam is not only an island on the ground, but also an unsinkable aircraft carrier on the sea.
The underground of Guam has been completely hollowed out, and a larger base has been built inside. There is also a dock that can accommodate ten nuclear submarines under the water, as well as military camps, ammunition depots, and even an intelligence analysis station."
"The barracks are built under the ground. Tell me, how many troops are there in Guam?"
Liu Shiba felt something was wrong and glanced at No. 3.
No. 3 innocent said:
"The intensity of the rays is limited, and the scan below the ground is not clear."
Zhang Guanglie said solemnly:
"There are at least five thousand people. They usually take turns to go out for military training on the ground, and hide underground when nothing happens.
This base is very important to the United States. If it is lost, it will be declared that the United States has lost the Pacific Ocean forever.
Without the supplementary transfer station of Guam, no matter how strong the bombing, fighter jets, or even aircraft carriers are, they cannot persist in overseas operations for a long time."
When Liu Shiba heard this, he quickly turned his head and said:
"Where's Huang Zhong?"
"My lord, the general is here!"
In the distance, Huang Zhong, who had changed into a black and exquisite military uniform, looked strong and strong, with an extraordinary temperament.
"Don't panic. The original plan for you to bring fifty soldiers to the island will be shelved for now."
Liu Shiba waved his hand.
"My lord, the veteran has been looking forward to the battle for a long time and is impatient!"
Huang Zhongcheng sincerely handed over his hand.
"There are five thousand soldiers on the island. You can't kill them. If you get out, the fifty soldiers behind you will all die."
Liu Shiba vetoed his original decision. If there were more than a thousand people, he could still give it a try.
"boom!"
The battleship was shaken and stopped floating.
"Captain, we are now ten meters away from the sea level. Vice Captain Zheng Weida is waiting for instructions."
Zheng Weida raised his hand in a military salute and shouted loudly.
What to do? In front of Liu Shiba, the plan to attack Guam was almost abandoned.
Even if there are 5,000 soldiers, it is not something that more than 100 people can fight for now.
