(I swear, I will never correct typos again! Sorry, sorry)
In the early morning, a tightly sealed military port north of Kalombo was brightly lit.
Because of the arrival of the Umbrella Company fleet, this has always been the case here.
It's just that today is different from the past. The port is crowded.
American soldiers and people from the Sri Lankan military are busy.
Before departure, all warships, aircraft, and weapons must be thoroughly inspected to ensure that there will be no possible problems during the fight!
In the command center, Sean, President Sri Lanka, the Commander-in-Chief of the Sri Lankan Military, and the Minister of the Navy gathered together. However, today’s protagonist is the commander-in-chief of Operation Tiger Hunt, Robert A. Owens!
Yes, a general attack on the maritime power of the Menghu Organization is about to be launched today. This operation is named ‘Operation Tiger Hunting’!
These days, in addition to running in, Robert has also stopped investigating the Menghu organization.
Small drones and Black Hawk helicopters were frequently dispatched, especially frogmen, who simply lurked inside Menghu's port. Various photos were spliced together, and the layout of the Menghu organization in the entire sea area was thoroughly investigated.
At around one o'clock in the morning, all preparations were ready and the final confirmation was made.
"I..." President Si stood next to Sean on the pier, his face full of worry, and he opened his mouth several times but hesitated.
"Why, does the President think we can't defeat the tiger?" Sean asked with a smile.
"I'm not worried about that." President Si shook his head, "What I'm worried about is Asan."
"Every time we prepare to exterminate the tigers, the tigers will ask for help from Asan, which results in the failure of our extermination plan every time."
"This time, they will definitely ask for help, and Ah San has deployed a fleet across the strait!"
Everyone knows why this fleet suddenly stopped here and what it came for.
President Si said through gritted teeth, anger rising in his heart, and his face full of worry.
It was an organized fleet with firepower that President Sri Lanka could not even imagine.
The world's third largest military power has an aircraft carrier. Although the aircraft carrier did not come this time, it can be used as the flagship of the formation fleet, with a full load displacement of 4,800 tons.
Although the protective umbrella is made from American products, which is sufficiently advanced compared with other countries, the one Ah San uses is also made from the Soviet Union!
As two poles of the world, they are equally powerful.
President Sri Lanka really doesn’t think Sean’s two guided missile destroyers can do a better job than Asan.
It is simply impossible. The combined tonnage of the two battleships is comparable to Asan, the flagship of the fleet.
"Our goal is just to use the maritime power of the Menghu organization to complete this task!" President Sri Lanka thought about it again and again, but urged him again.
Sean just nodded expressionlessly.
Of course he understands the Sri Lankan president's worries. The conflict with the tigers has already overwhelmed Sri Lanka. The neighbor next door who is full of curry smell is always rushing over to rape...
Take the opportunity to ravage Sri Lanka.
Every time they forcefully break open the door, they leave hundreds of millions of things in Sri Lanka's body before leaving.
Yes, I’m talking about ammunition...
It is natural for the Sri Lankan President and even Sri Lanka as a whole to be afraid.
However, Sean is not ready to give in when the time comes.
It is the first time to carry out a national-level security and defense mission, in front of all countries in the world. If you back down this time, it will be impossible to be tough again in the future.
It's even harder to get orders.
Even if these two battleships were sunk, Sean would never back down.
After patting President Si's shoulder, Sean said, "Pour down your wine and I'll come when you're ready." Then he turned around and boarded the battleship!
Let’s go north!
A Keeling-class guided missile destroyer and a Dilly-class guided missile frigate, the Sri Lankan Navy dispatched a total of 27 warships to cooperate with the operation.
2 small torpedo boats, 2 small anti-submarine patrol boats, 5 small gunboats, and 18 small patrol boats, with a total tonnage of an astonishing 1,200 tons!
Especially the five small gunboats, with a displacement of an astonishing 120 tons!
The two small torpedo boats are even more powerful, with a displacement of an astonishing 19.3 tons!
Sean was amazed by such combat power, and he believed deeply in his order to only let Si Haijun be responsible for assisting!
In less than five hours, just before dawn, the fleet approached the tiger-controlled area in the north, Delft Island.
To be honest, it was the Sean that was a drag. These speedboats of the Sri Lankan Navy are a bit smaller, but they are much faster...
Arriving at the battlefield at the scheduled time, Robert gave an order, and the Sri Lankan Navy Cooperation Security rushed towards the sea between Delft and Jaffna.
The Sean was lying across the sea not far from Delft, with all its attention focused on Asan.
However, it was just dawn every day when the Security team arrived at the scheduled location. After receiving the report, Robert gave another order, and four helicopters immediately took off from the temporary airport on Mannar Island and headed straight for the Tiger-controlled area.
Flying at a low altitude did not give the Tigers any chance to react.
After arriving at the predetermined location, he aimed at the missile docked at the small hidden dock and directly pressed the missile launch button.
"Swish, swish, swish", a rocket launch slot was directly emptied.
19 rockets covered the small pier like an overwhelming force.
"Boom boom boom"
Amidst a series of dense explosions, flames shot up from the sea and the waves were blown up more than 20 meters high.
After the roar, the fuel on the ship leaked out and ignited a raging fire. The nearby docks and land were all set ablaze, and the flames shot straight into the sky!
Regardless of whether there are any living people around here, you can be sure that there will never be any here now!
In fact, the so-called seamount forces of the Menghu Organization are just little guys converted from fishing boats and merchant ships. Only a few of them are small patrol boats provided by Asan.
The custom of the anti-government armed forces is to act as bandits when they go out and act as civilians when they enter. Those fishing boats are really just fishing boats in normal times. Attacking and smuggling are part-time jobs.
After a round of saturation strikes, everything turned into fragments!
Even so, the Black Hawk in the sky did not let go, and the installed cannon fired wildly at several nearby buildings that were still intact.
The metal storm swept down, and the wooden building directly turned into debris!
Almost at the same time, Menghu's four small hidden ports scattered throughout the country suffered devastating blows.
loss……
Ugh...Sean suffered a heavy loss!
Even the Menghu’s shabby weapons at sea are not as expensive as the price of 19 rockets!
The worst thing is that according to the information collected by the investigation, Menghu's maritime power is extremely scattered. This sea area has complex terrain and numerous islands. Menghu has designed more than a dozen hidden small ports like pepper noodles.
The helicopter here has completed the destruction mission, and a speedboat from the Sri Lanka Navy will come to finish it immediately.
Search for survivors or clean up the battlefield.
Of course, Menghu is not without large...medium-sized ports.
There is one in Jaffna.
In order to destroy this place and prepare for possible counterattacks, Robert directly dispatched two Apaches to take action himself!
In the Jaffna Port, the core of the Tiger Organization, there are two real gunboats of about 150 tons, as many as five armed merchant ships with a displacement of more than 500 tons that have been converted from merchant ships, and many small patrol boats.
In addition, the coastal defense guns, radars, etc. are also fully deployed, so there will be no problem in defending the Sri Lankan navy!
The two Apaches were flying almost close to the water and were not discovered until they were 2 kilometers away from the port.
Alarms on the shore sounded frantically.
Division of labor, locking, "swish swish" the Hellfire anti-tank missile roared out. Under the lock of the fire control radar, there were only a few fixed targets, and there was almost no possibility of missing the target.
In a series of "boom boom boom" explosions, large holes were directly blown out of the Menghu's strongest maritime force, the gunboats and several armed merchant ships.
The two Apaches each fired 7 rounds of Hellfire anti-tank missiles, and immediately increased after the bombing.
In just this one wave, 1.5 million US dollars was gone!
20 seconds later, it rose to an altitude of more than 200 meters. At this moment, it had entered the 1 kilometer range of the dock, and rockets began to cover and bomb!
If you are poor, you will use tactics. If you are rich, you will bomb. 76 rockets, covering the entire dock area, a saturation attack that does not spare any mercy.
Two rounds of bombing, only 30 seconds before and after, almost all the maritime power of the entire Tiger organization in Jaffna was destroyed!
At this moment, the talents of the Menghu organization reacted.
This is the reason why they have always been vigilant and the Tiger Organization is well-trained.
Several people rushed out of the room in a hurry, carrying RPGs on their shoulders. They aimed at the Apache in the sky and launched it directly.
The driver of the Apache seemed to have not seen it at all, and calmly pulled up diagonally upwards and rushed out.
No...well, I just look down on RPGs. This thing is a non-guided shoulder rest, but it doesn't have any locking function at all.
Moreover, the initial velocity is only 140 meters/second, the maximum speed after secondary ignition is only 300 meters/second, and the maximum range is only more than 900 meters.
To be continued...
