—————

The Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force dispatched an amphibious force to support the U.S. military on Diego Garcia Island. Lieutenant General Sha Yiqi did not feel that there was anything wrong with the timely information.

After all, the United States and Japan are military alliances, and they should be helping each other.

What's more, the NATO Indian Ocean Fleet is still nearly 2,000 kilometers away from Diego Garcia Island at this moment. Even if it wants to rescue, it is beyond its reach.

The other military forces of the US military in the Indian Ocean are also far behind.

Only the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force in the middle of the Indian Ocean can rescue the battle on the island in time. The two escort groups of the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force are only 200 kilometers away from Diego Garcia Island.

It only takes a little more than half an hour for the Osprey to transport the soldiers of the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force to the island to support the US military in combat.

And the time for the fleet to go to Diego Garcia Island will not be too long.

Compared with the Red Police Navy, which is still 800 kilometers away, the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force clearly has the initiative in terms of time and location.

But Panda is not worried, because the Marine Corps sent out earlier than Japan, and the carrier-based planes of the two wings are also approaching Diego Garcia Island at full speed. Even if Japan sends troops to the island in time, the It is still facing the same fate as the US military on the island.

However, Sha Yiqi can also understand that if the US military fully informs the Japanese side of the situation on the island, it is impossible for the Japanese side to send troops to the island.

Of course, it is not that the United States intends to deliberately deceive Japan, but the United States also feels that there is still room for redemption.

After all, on Diego Garcia Island, there is still a reinforced battalion of marines with a lot of heavy equipment, and the Air Force fighter jets that were patrolling before will soon be able to return to support, and Japan will send troops just to be more secure .

As for the situation on Diego Garcia Island at this moment, the United States is trying to understand as much as possible, but it can only analyze the pictures taken by satellites. The Pentagon also understands that the situation may not be optimistic.

Most of the airport was destroyed, and it may be barely possible for the returning fighter jets to land, but it is impossible to replenish fuel and ammunition to continue the battle.

On the warships and submarines of the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force,

It also does not have offensive missile weapons. The missiles on the ship are all anti-submarine and air defense and anti-missile functions, unlike the Aegis ships of the US military, which also have Tomahawks.

Otherwise, it can also provide fire support for operations on the island.

Fortunately, there is also a squadron of ninja gunships following the first amphibious wing, and the so-called Japanese ninja gunships are actually the Japanese version of Apache that prevents the American Apache helicopter from Japan.

Previously, the Ninja gunship was only equipped with the Ground Self-Defense Force, but in order to provide fire support to the amphibious forces, based on the original Ninja gunship, a carrier-based gunship that can adapt to the high-salt and humid environment at sea was developed. .

Otherwise, Japan's Lightning fighter jets do not yet have the ability to board ships, and the Japanese amphibious forces will not have the ability to cover and project troops with firepower.

Of course, if all the various aircraft on Diego Garcia Island were not destroyed in the air strikes, Japan would not need to dispatch these ninja helicopters, or even the help of the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force.

"Where are the reinforcements?" Sha Yiqi asked.

After the first round of air strikes, after confirming that all the defensive weapons on Diego Garcia Island had been destroyed, the two amphibious fleets of the Red Police Corps immediately dispatched the second batch of landing troops.

In the amphibious fleet of the Red Police Corps, there are only four transport helicopters, and the rest are all high-end fast transport aircraft such as peacekeeping transport aircraft. Not only are they more powerful and faster, they can even lift large land combat equipment.

And this is the first time in the history of naval warfare that the Red Police Corps landed on islands that are 800 to 900 kilometers apart.

Of course, this is a risky plan that has no other way, otherwise, if a conventional island landing operation is carried out, the Red Police Navy will inevitably face the NATO Indian Ocean fleet going south, let alone a landing operation. The ability to fight back is gone.

A qualified commander is only a qualified commander who adapts measures to local conditions, uses tactics in combination with actual conditions, and commands flexibly.

"The reinforcements will arrive in fifteen minutes."

"What about the fighting situation on the island?" Sha Yiqi asked again.

"The special warfare battalion is fighting hard. The reinforced battalion of the US Marine Corps has a considerable amount of main combat equipment, which has brought a lot of trouble to the special warfare battalion. However, the current situation has been basically brought under control. If the reinforcements arrive, they will be able to Within five hours, completely wipe out the American soldiers on the island."

It seems that this war is more difficult than imagined.

Sha Yiqi shook his head, put aside the thoughts in his mind, and continued to ask: "Will the carrier-based aircraft wing arrive at Diego Garcia Island as scheduled?"

"Judging from the current flight speeds of the two wings, it may be a few minutes late, but if it is accelerated, it will affect the flight time of the carrier-based aircraft over the island if it departs from the economic flight speed."

"No, we can't delay for a minute. Within the scheduled time, at least one brigade of fighter jets must arrive on the battlefield, otherwise our soldiers will directly face the bombing of American fighter jets." Sha Yiqi ordered decisively upon hearing this. gave instructions.

The executive staff did not need Sha Yiqi to issue orders, so he immediately issued the order of how to act to the fleet, and then turned around and reported to Sha Yiqi: "Report to the general, I have ordered the third brigade to leave the economic flight speed, and it is expected Ten minutes later, we arrived over Diego Garcia Island, and three carrier-based tankers took off three minutes later, ready to refuel the third battalion returning from combat.”

"Very good, we must ensure the air supremacy over the island, and it cannot fall into the hands of the US military." Sha Yiqi nodded.

Sha Yiqi knew very well that the returning planes of the U.S. military did not have much time in the air, and they could only make an emergency landing at the airport that had been almost destroyed. Let the U.S. fighter jets wreak havoc.

However, Sha Yiqi is most concerned about the two Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force groups. The NATO Indian Ocean Fleet is already strong enough, and with the help of Japan's powerful anti-submarine capabilities, this is definitely not good news for the Red Police Navy.

Having settled a Diego Garcia Island, just pulling out a nail of the US military in the Indian Ocean, does not mean that the Red Police Corps has an advantage in this naval battle, but if the two escort groups of the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force are killed , the situation will really improve.
