Chapter 500

The British soldiers stationed in Xiangjiang began to rest, which also made the specially recruited black cloud employees idle. They promised their boss to take Argentine specialties back. Although they captured a lot in the first war, they always thought it was not enough. What kind of person the boss is, how can he use this thing to get rid of him.

Therefore, black cloud employees began to give full play to their rich advantages, and they were very interested in what other British soldiers seized from Argentines. In the face of pounds and dollars, British soldiers could not resist. Although they knew that the war was in a state of anxiety at this time, many soldiers were doing business with them, which had become a fun in a boring war.

As long as the Argentines are captured from the battlefield, the black cloud employees can say everything, and the price is clearly marked. Sister-in-law Tong is not deceived. This makes the British soldiers who come to war feel very interesting. It's good to be able to sell things while fighting.

An ordinary soldier seized a command knife and sold it to heiyun employees for ￡ 1000, which greatly increased the interest of British soldiers in seizing Argentine weapons.

However, at this time, the battlefield situation has tilted towards the unfavorable side of the British people. Shooting down more and more helicopters and low altitude aircraft has made the British Army lose some air control for a while, which provides the Argentines with an opportunity, an opportunity to seriously hurt the British people.

With the loss of British air control, Argentines' long planned retaliation began. After the signal of the British task force was captured by the Neptune maritime patrol aircraft of the Argentine navy, two Argentine flag attack aircraft deployed on Rio Grande, Tierra del Fuego Island, carrying flying fish missiles immediately took off. After receiving air refueling from the kc-130h Hercules transport aircraft of the Argentine air force, the two aircraft attacked at ultra-low altitude close to the wave crest. Only jump at 50 miles, perform radar search and immediately return to low altitude, and launch the carried flying fish missile at 20 to 30 miles.

The missile destroyer Glasgow, a similar ship of the Sheffield, and three other northernmost radar sentry ships captured the first jump of the Afghan military aircraft and informed the fleet air defense command post on the invincible at the first time. However, due to a false alarm that morning, the air defense command post on the invincible ignored the warning. At this time, the missile destroyer Glasgow continued to monitor the general position of the first jump of the flag and detected the second jump. This time, the EW equipment on the British ship received the signal from the target seeking radar on the flying fish missile. Once again, the on the invincible judged it as a false alarm; Ignoring the Glasgow's continued "hand brake" warning.

The first missile missed the Yarmouth and headed for the "interference cloud" it launched. At this time, the missile destroyer Glasgow tried to engage another missile with a sea mark missile, but it was unable to succeed due to system failure. The air defense command post still classified the warning as false alarm.

However, the missile destroyer Sheffield could not detect the incoming missile in time. Due to the use of satellite telephone, the shipborne EW system can not work. Why can't shipborne radar detect incoming missiles? Why did the ship not respond to the warning of the destroyer Glasgow? The reason is beyond examination. Finally, the Sheffield's electronic warfare system crashed one second before the visual surveillance Post reported the discovery of the missile wake, and the ship did not deploy any countermeasures.

The flying fish missile hit the middle of the Sheffield. Although the warhead fuse failed to start, the fire went out of control, causing 20 deaths and 24 serious casualties. During the rescue, the Yarmouth left its position from time to time and fired anti submarine weapons at the warning of suspicious torpedo attack.

The missile destroyer Sheffield was abandoned hours later, but the bent wreckage continued to drift and burn for six days. Finally, when she was towed by the Yarmouth, she sank on the high sea and became a tomb marker. The missile destroyer Sheffield withstood a fatal blow for the larger and more important aircraft carrier in the fleet. Any attack on the aircraft carrier will force Britain to immediately terminate its military operations in the South Atlantic. The process of war has been gradually warming up.

Sheffield class destroyer is a missile destroyer mainly equipped with air defense weapons built by Britain. Its purpose is to serve as the air defense task of the task force. Now it is ironic that it has been sunk by aircraft.

At the same time, it also gives a headache to the Portsmouth shipyard producing the Sheffield. The introduction of ground effect aircraft is the most fierce thing they call. The voice of opposition is the strongest, mainly because they are worried that ground effect aircraft will snatch their orders. Now Xiangjiang monsters are in the limelight. On the contrary, the ships produced by their own factories are directly sunk by the weak Argentines. Isn't this telling the world that the weapons they make can't work!

Portsmouth shipyard was established in 1495. After the establishment of the British navy in 1670, it has become a shipyard of the British navy. It can be said that this is the oldest and most powerful shipyard in Britain.

With the sinking of the Sheffield by the Argentine navy, all the countries originally prepared to negotiate the introduction of modified warships withdrew. What is more unacceptable is that the Navy also intends to cut orders and order weapons more suitable for the development of the Navy.

It can be said that at this time, the arms dealers in Britain can no longer affect the front-line commanders. After all, the weapons are so disappointing that they still want me to lean towards you. That is to joke about the lives of soldiers and gamble on the future of the British Empire.

The British began to make a defense plan and the Sheffield cup sank. Argentines will certainly take advantage of the air defense loopholes in this period of time to attack the task force. The battlefield situation has changed. At this time, the British have lost all their strategic advantage in occupying South Georgia. Now we can only see how the Argentines play their cards.

Galtieri jumped up excitedly in the presidential palace, which was the first time in recent days that he leaked a smiling face. The staff of the presidential palace also know that the war has developed in favor of Argentina, and maybe victory is coming to them.

Today, the presidential palace is very lively. All senior Argentine military officials came to attend the battle conference. Galtieri said with a smile: "a few days ago, the heroic Argentine air force took the initiative to blow up the British missile destroyer Sheffield. Just now, the intelligence department has confirmed that the ship sank. It can be said that Sheffield has become the fruit of Argentine soldiers."

"This is a great opportunity. We shot down a lot of British planes. At this time, we have basically lost air control. Now the air defense ship Sheffield has also been sunk, and the British navy has no venting ability for a period of time. Therefore, I hope Argentine fighters will take the initiative to attack the British Navy from the air. "

At this time, the Minister of equipment said: "Your Excellency, France prohibits the export of flying fish missiles to China, so our current missile reserves are only enough to maintain two high-intensity operations."

In fact, France did not simply continue to export flying fish missiles to Argentina, but was forced to disclose the interference frequency of flying fish missiles under the deterrence of NATO. The missile that made it shine in the Falklands war did not reach the expected sales in the end. The whole world knows how to interfere with the missile, and is worried about the use of buying it back once you are out of stock in the war.

Galtieri: "European and American countries are unreliable. Isn't there still a lot of weapons in the hands of the Soviet Union in Argentina! Just buy from them. Flying fish are mainly used to attack British warships. As for all British aircraft, they are attacked with Soviet individual missiles. To make the soldiers carry forward the spirit of bravery, the victory will surely belong to Argentina. "

Now, when the limelight is in full swing, no one dares to question and oppose his orders. Therefore, the order was issued soon. At the same time, the British side was planning its own action, and the ground effect aircraft was once again remembered by the British commander. Not only that, the British also urgently dispatched a number of fighter planes from home. No one expected that a small Argentina would consume Britain so much.

Both sides are gearing up for the next round of attack. It can be said that the next battle is a decisive battle. Neither of the belligerents can afford to lose.
