Chapter 1198 - Choice 1!
This night in the southern seas was spent in the midst of war!
It was to be expected that he would take down Island One.
Don't look at how the Vietnamese have operated island number one for so many years and built so many fortifications. In reality, the Chinese military was already very clear about the manpower arrangements and the situation on the island.
Not moving him was not because he did not dare. It was because he needed to consider the timing and various aspects of their relationship.
Now that he had made his move, it was only natural that he would be able to grab it with ease.
But taking down Island One did not mean the end. On the contrary, it was only the beginning.
When the news of the capture of Island # 1 spread out, the entire fleet of the Southern Sea Region was like a precision machine, telling everything to run.
The first thing to consider is the possibility of Vietnam dispatching warships or directly using missiles to attack Island One.
As a result, the well-prepared fleet immediately dispatched a few warships to confront the Vietnamese warships in the southern seas, doing their best to strengthen the air defense around Island # 1.
At the same time, on the border with Vietnam, China sent out an army. Ji Zhenping acted as the commander before the war and commanded the army to quickly make a detour, encircling the Vietnamese soldiers that were confronting China at the fastest speed.
According to Ji Zhenping's words, he had to make dumplings for the Vietnamese army. He had to let the Vietnamese know that the troops on the front lines were like the meat on Huaxia's lips. They could eat any time they wanted!
The strength of China's army had already been proven in all sorts of battles. Even when facing Vietnam's military, which secretly provided support with weapons from the United States and j.a.pan, there was no sign of fear.
When the news of the attack on Island # 1 spread out, the eyes of the entire world had been attracted to this place.
The Philippines was the first to jump out and accuse China of using random force. This was an invasion.
But China took out the evidence that the 1st island was a part of the China Sea. At this time, China had always insisted on not giving up on their ownership of the occupied islands, which made it very obvious.
And most importantly, the Chinese side's response made people go crazy.
According to the response, the reason why the people of China were angered was because Vietnam had repeatedly attacked Chinese fishermen without reason. That was why they were able to organize the battle to retake the island.
To put it bluntly, the Vietnamese had done too much. They provoked China again and again to bully the fishermen in China. In the end, the citizens of China became extremely angry and that was why they organized this battle.
And the key point was that China did not admit that this was an official war, but a spontaneous civil war organization!
The leader was the Soaring Flying Group!
The Chinese army did not make a move, and still maintained their restraint. They even advised the Vietnamese army to immediately retreat!
This response made the Vietnamese so angry that their lungs almost burst. Even the Philippines and the other countries were at a loss for words.
A civil war?
Without the official support, even if the citizens had ten times the guts, how would they dare start a war against the regular army? And it was even against the regular army of another country?
Besides, doesn't China always prohibit private ownership of weapons? Since it was organized by the people, where did they get the weapons from?
Everyone knew that this was just a front!
This made the outside world, especially some of the great powers in the west, start to pay more attention to him.
With the foreign media's a.n.a.lysis, it was very possible that this was the ancient country of the East that had already awakened, showing off its strength to the world. It was also because of the increasing external pressure in recent years that China was going to show off its muscles on this issue!
However, according to the information gathered from various sources and the intelligence gathered, China clearly did not intend to engage in a large-scale war, which was why they came to the conclusion that it was a war organized by the people.
However, if anyone really thought that the Chinese authorities wouldn't partic.i.p.ate and only let the citizens partic.i.p.ate in the war, then that person would truly be a fool.
But at this moment, Vietnam didn't care about this. The fight on Island # 1 was simply intolerable.
It was almost immeasurable how much benefit there was in occupying an island. The most important thing was that Island # 1 was very close to China, and it was also very big. Occupying this island could hit the mainland at any time, and strategy was the most important.
As a result, after the fall of Island # 1, Vietnam was furious, and the fleet in the Southern Sea Region immediately pressed down. In the diplomatic field, they were engaged in a war of words with China, and immediately began attacking Island # 1.
It was clear that Vietnam was determined to get back to Island One.
Although they were prepared, once the Vietnamese fleet began to retaliate with air force, missiles, and even submarines, the days of Ji Feng and the others on Island One became more difficult.
Even with China's fleet intercepting them, any missile interception system would definitely not have a 100% success rate. Thus, with the Vietnamese army frantically attacking, Island # 1 was under heavy bombardment.
Without having been on the battlefield, it was impossible for him to understand just how powerful the missile was. The feeling of having the earth shaking and mountains shaking was just like a tsunami that had occurred in the sea.
The entire island seemed to be engulfed in a sea of fire!
However, Ji Feng and the others were very glad. The Vietnamese had really treated Island One as their own. During the decades they had occupied Island One, they had built many military fortifications, including underground air-raid shelters and even underground caves to prevent nuclear strikes!
As for the weapons and equipment on the island, they were all there and were not destroyed by the Vietnamese soldiers when they took down Island # 1.
This gave Ji Feng and the others a chance to catch their breath. At the very least, the regular missiles fired at the island didn't pose much of a threat to them.
However, the days of hiding in the underground did not feel good. Even though they were deep underground, they could still feel the tremors from the missiles.
However, Ji Feng and the others were more concerned about the situation outside.
"The Vietnamese are obviously mad! It seems like the situation can be made clear very soon. Whether it's a fight or a talk, it should be seen in the next few days! "
Xiang Yong Zhan said as he half-lay on a seat with a blade of gra.s.s in his mouth.
With the exception of the people outside, who were monitoring the situation on the island from the control center, they were hiding here all the time. This was not a matter of bravery or lack of bravery; in modern times, personal bravery had a minuscule advantage, unless there was a direct confrontation between the army and the army.
However, since the Vietnamese were constantly bombarding Island # 1, there was no need for them to leave the island. If a missile came, they could only die in vain.
Tan Yong said in a deep voice, "It's nothing much for the Vietnamese to attack Island # 1. Since the island was so large, he couldn't sink it. I just wonder how the battle between the two fleets is progressing! "
He said to Yong Zhan, "I just received news from the headquarters this morning. Right now, the two fleets are actually not engaged in a close combat. The two sides have not officially started a war either. The Vietnamese have fired missiles and our fleet is intercepting them."
Tan Yong asked, "Then do the Navy just watch us get beaten up like this?"
"Of course not!"
He said to Yong Zhan, "Our fleet is fighting back. They are attacking the islands to the west. The Vietnamese can only deal with them."
Ji Feng laughed, "In that case, the fight in the southwest is not bad! Otherwise the Vietnamese wouldn't have been so crazy to keep firing missiles! "
"That's right!"
Tan Yong and Yong Zhan couldn't help but nod.
As the vanguard, they had been in close contact with the headquarters since the start of the skirmish, so they were very clear about the situation.
The army sent out troops from the southwest. When they made their move, they used all of their mechanized troops to quickly move in and out of the way, surrounding the northern army on the border of Vietnam. At the same time, a large amount of supplies had already been prepared and were being delivered to the front in a steady stream.
When the Vietnamese started to attack Island # 1, the Chinese army began to attack from the southwest.
At sea, both sides were trying their best to restrain themselves and avoid large-scale sea battles. Otherwise, it would really become an all-out war between the two countries. Thus, the two countries' naval forces appeared to be evenly matched. The Vietnamese attacked Island # 1, and the Chinese fleet attacked the other islands that were still occupied by the Vietnamese. Both sides also intercepted each other's missiles.
On land, the Chinese Army's mobility and combat ability, especially with the new type of laser gun, may not have been fully equipped, but just the firepower from each and every knife company was already an overwhelming advantage for the Vietnam Army.
The northern troop and island one, choose between the two!
This was a choice given by China to Vietnam, but the answer was undoubtedly painful!
Vietnam's army was not weak, but in order to put pressure on China, Vietnam had sent out almost half of the northern army.
If the northern army were to be eaten now, then the defense of the northern part of Vietnam would be as weak as a piece of paper.
Next, the Chinese army could definitely reproduce the glory of the counterattack a few decades ago - directly hitting the capital of Viet Nam!
Moreover, he would definitely be able to sweep through everything in his path!
Therefore, this choice was very difficult.
From the degree of madness that Ji Feng and the rest displayed when the missiles were fired, they could tell that the battle between the two armies was about to come to an end.
Obviously, the Vietnam Army was in imminent danger, becoming a piece of meat on the Chinese Army's chopping board.
Therefore, Vietnam would probably need to get back at Number 1 Island and talk more about it.
However, no matter what, Vietnam would probably not think of Ji Feng and the others being lucky enough to survive after decades of operation on island one. Although the days were not easy, they did not lose their lives.
If Viet Nam wanted to take down Island # 1, they would have to send someone to land, but at that time, it would not be this way!
