Chapter 1233: Falklands War in the New Century?

300 km sea area south of Xiangjiang River.

Blue sea situation.

The second aircraft carrier formation is conducting routine training.

Aircraft carrier formation training requires more training in peacetime so that less blood can be shed in wartime.

What is going on at this time is the vertical landing of a "Sea Eagle" carrier-based aircraft.

Although the "Sea Eagle" carrier-based aircraft has its inherent shortcomings and has defects such as short range compared to other carrier-based aircraft, it is still a carrier-based aircraft with quite good performance.

The carrier-based aircraft of the second aircraft carrier formation is not the "Sea Eagle" carrier-based aircraft, but the navy still mobilized two "Sea Eagle" carrier-based aircraft to participate in the training of the second aircraft carrier formation.

The "Sea Eagle" carrier-based aircraft is designed based on the 001 aircraft carrier, and is naturally the most suitable for the 001 aircraft carrier.

On the helicopter, Liu Tao and Zhang Zhaozhong are watching with binoculars.

Zhang Zhaozhong is no longer the commander of the second aircraft carrier formation, but has been transferred to the commander of the third aircraft carrier formation.

It's just that the Type 002B aircraft carrier has not yet been officially put into service, so naturally the Type 002B aircraft carrier has not yet been formed.

Zhang Zhaozhong's mission is to explore the training and combat aspects of aircraft carriers.

Without war, in peacetime, we can only explore on our own.

In the world, the United States has the most experience and the most advanced use of aircraft carriers.

But this is a secret that is not passed on. Even if the British want to learn from the Americans, the Americans will not teach, let alone China!

China also has to explore step by step.

Liu Tao can build an aircraft carrier, but he can't teach how to use it or how to conduct aircraft carrier formation operations.

These have to be explored by officers and soldiers such as Zhang Zhaozhong, in training, and in actual combat exercises.

"Leader, how is it? Is our training okay?" Zhang Zhaozhong said.

Liu Tao smiled and said, "I don't understand this aspect. You are the experts. You have the most say in whether the training is good or not."

"Now your military expenditure is much more than before. If it's still not good, it's unacceptable!" Liu Tao said.

Military expenditure is now more than 20 times more than that in the 1980s.

Adding other channels, the military expenditure is even more.

Zhang Zhaozhong said: "Now we are very confident. We are already the second in the world in terms of navy, second only to the US Navy."

"It's just that we lack actual combat opportunities. If we can have an actual combat opportunity, it would be the best." Zhang Zhaozhong was a little regretful.

China's aircraft carriers have too few actual combat opportunities. The largest-scale combat was in Southeast Asia a few years ago.

Later, they occasionally fought against pirates.

Peacetime is lucky for ordinary people, but it is a great sorrow for soldiers.

In peacetime, it is too difficult for soldiers to make merit. It is also much more difficult for soldiers to be promoted.

Many soldiers, when they reach the regiment level, it is very difficult to be promoted again.

It is very difficult to be promoted to the deputy division level, and it is a very high threshold from the deputy division level to the division level.

As for the division level to the army level, it is an even higher threshold, and only a few people can be promoted.

If it is in wartime, it is much easier to make merit and to be promoted.

The voices in the army seeking war are loud, and they are getting louder every year.

If the people's soldiers did not have the mission of disaster relief and pursue peace and justice, they would probably be unable to hold back.

There are only a few ways to get into actual combat, either by joining the blue helmets or the mercenary group.

As for the border, there are too few opportunities to open fire.

Sometimes you can only use cold weapons.

Even with cold weapons, the opportunities are pitifully few.

Liu Tao smiled and said nothing more. No one knows when the war will break out.

Maybe it will never break out, but maybe it will break out in the next moment.

The army must be prepared to fight at any time. Only by daring to fight and fighting bravely can the war be stopped. When the war really breaks out, it can win the battle.

The helicopter circled and then landed at the parking position of a 055A destroyer.

This 055A destroyer is the command ship of China's second aircraft carrier formation and the location of the fleet commander. It has a very strong combat system and command system, and can be contacted at any time in any corner of the earth.

It can transmit combat orders to every ship in the fleet at any time.

When Liu Tao just returned to the Panshan Group headquarters, the secretary reported a sudden news to him.

It was an incident that broke out in South America, which led to a strong statement from Britain.

It was Argentina that once again proposed the sovereignty of the Falklands Islands and declared that it would take back the Falklands.

The defeat in the Falklands War that year has always been a source of resentment for Argentina. It not only caused Argentina to suffer heavy losses, but also lost the Falklands.

But Argentina also has something to be proud of, that is, Argentina severely damaged the British expeditionary force, and the Argentine Air Force and Navy wrote a heroic page.

Armando Mayora has become a national hero of Argentina.

Now, Armando Mayora has won the election, and the entire policy is becoming tough, intending to revitalize Argentina.

After the Falklands War, relying on the export of oil and copper, gold, iron ore, as well as grain and meat, Argentina's overall economy has developed well, and its current strength is much stronger than during the Falklands War.

However, Britain's strength has declined a lot compared to the Falklands War.

This rise and fall made Armando Mayora want to take back the Falklands.

As a rising star in the Falklands War, Armando Mayora was deeply impressed by the Falklands War and he was always unwilling to accept it.

After taking charge of Argentina, Armando Mayora strengthened the construction of military forces.

Now, Armando Mayora feels that the time is ripe and wants to take back the Falkland Islands.

Liu Tao frowned slightly. Now this time is not very good, because the Iraq War has ended.

If Argentina wants to take back the Falkland Islands, Britain will definitely ask the United States for help.

In the Gulf War, the Kosovo War, the Afghanistan War and the Iraq War, Britain has firmly stood on the side of the United States and made great efforts.

If Britain asks the United States for help, I am afraid that the United States will not refuse and will put pressure on Argentina.

Although in recent years, South American countries have been carrying out the movement to get rid of the United States, more and more people believe that the reason why South America has experienced more suffering is because the United States is sucking blood from South America.

However, the United States still has a huge influence in South America. Many wealthy people and politicians in South America have deposits in the United States, and even have American citizenship.

Now Britain has responded strongly at the first time, and even expressed that it would not hesitate to launch the Falklands War again to completely destroy Argentina’s idea that it should not have.

In recent years, because Argentina has always tried to take back the Falklands, this has also caused dissatisfaction among many British people. Many British people said that during the Falklands War, the Falklands should have been completely independent, and even Argentina should have been dismembered into several countries.

Now that Argentina has a tough attitude, Britain immediately responded strongly.

Liu Tao shook his head slightly. Given the current situation in Britain, it is impossible to have another Falklands War. (End of this chapter)
