Chapter 235 Su Dingping was specially approved to participate in the decision-making meeting
“Yes!”
Everyone sat down in unison.
Xue Shuai sat down with a normal expression, as if he had no change in his expression.
Only he knows how angry he is at this time.
The Donghuang tribe became so arrogant that they all assigned the air defense identification zone to the doorstep of the Longxia tribe, which was only 120 kilometers away from the coastline.
Simply don’t go too far.
He understands better than anyone what such consequences mean.
In other words, as long as the Donghuang tribe thinks about it, their fighter jets can easily cross 120 kilometers and directly hit the Longxia tribe's local targets if they are equipped with air-to-ground missiles with a slightly longer range.
As the commander-in-chief of the armed forces, how can he not be angry or anxious?
In the huge conference hall, the lights were brightly lit and the stars were gathered, but no one said a word, it was silent, as if there was no one there.
Looking around, everyone’s faces were ashen.
Xue Shuai and the old man in black jacket sat in the chief position. In front of them were the chiefs from the Third Army and the Second Artillery.
In this crowd, Su Dingping, accompanied by Sun Yongguo and Zhang Zhaoxin, seemed so out of place.
Whether it is in terms of military rank or age, he is a very special one, standing out from the crowd.
Su Dingping was a little curious. Everyone present had a higher military rank than him. If he hadn't received a special invitation, he might not be qualified to come here at all.
While looking at everyone, he accidentally saw Sun Yongguo beside him from the corner of his eye.
I saw Sun Yongguo sitting there, looking a little embarrassed. If you look carefully, you can see sweat coming out of his forehead, which is densely packed, as if it is very hot here.
In fact, the central air conditioner here has been turned on. Even though it is June, the temperature has already risen.
This made Su Dingping a little confused. Sun Yongguo had seen big scenes after all, so why was he more nervous than himself when he got here?
He pushed Sun Yongguo gently and asked in a low voice: "Dean, what's wrong with you?"
"I'm fine."
Sun Yongguo waved his hand gently, signaling to himself Nothing really happened.
Only he knows that he is surrounded by generals, at least at the level of senior colonel like Zhang Zhaoxin, and someone like Su Dingping who is only a lieutenant colonel will definitely become the object of everyone's attention.
And when he sits next to him, he will be even more concerned.
In the past, he had never participated in such a high-level meeting. All the top brass in the army were present.
There were even a few people without military positions sitting not far from Xue Shuai.
On weekdays, he still pays attention to some news. Naturally, he knows that almost all of these people are experts with in-depth research on the military, or it is not an exaggeration to say that they are the military's think tanks.
When senior military officials find it difficult to make some decisions, they will discuss them with them.
However, Su Dingping knew that there were too many soft-footed shrimps in the think tank during this period. When they saw the Eagle Tribe, they were all frightened and their legs were weak. They were not as brave as when the country was first founded. tough.
Sun Yongguo sat there, looking quite uncomfortable.
Su Tianci shook his head slightly. His eyes scanned around everyone, and he really didn't find many school officers, who started at the level of major general.
Looking at the entire naval camp, it seems that only a few of them are captains. It can even be said that they are the most out of place among everyone here.
Other than that, all the people who came here were real people with real power, and they would make people in the military tremble every time they stamped their feet.
“Okay, let’s start the meeting now.”
"This time the topic mainly discusses the expansion of the Eastern Barren Tribe's Air Defense Identification Zone, which is only 120 kilometers away from our country's coastline."
"I believe everyone is clear about what this means."
"Everyone has a clear understanding of what this means." What do you think about this? "
Xue Shuai looked around the crowd, glanced at Su Dingping's position, and said loudly.
The city is like him, with no expression on his face, neither sad nor happy, as if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him without changing his expression.
"Xue Shuai, the Donghuang tribe is coming this time with great force and bad intentions. They must have premeditated it."
"They have also announced that they will dispatch reconnaissance and patrol aircraft to the relevant airspace on June 6. Conduct investigation, I'm afraid their motives are impure."
"We must take action"
As soon as the words fell, a major general from the army spoke, unable to hold back. of indignation.
As soon as he stood up, someone followed him.
"It's not wrong at all. The Donghuang tribe has obviously been planning for a long time."
"According to recent intelligence and satellite photos, they have secretly deployed the two Eighth-Eight fleets to the southwest sea. "
"Obviously they want to take advantage of it. Even though we sank four of their warships last time, they still have two and a half fleets."
" They still cannot be underestimated. They have been carrying out modernization for a long time, and they have the help of the Eagle Tribe behind them."
At this point, he paused, glanced at the crowd, and picked up the mineral water to drink. Take a bite.
"Actually, I'm also worried about whether they will dispatch aircraft carriers. In that case, they will be even more unscrupulous."
"Currently, there are various indications that the Eagle Tribe will approve their use. After all, we But the Eagle Tribe has also been offended. They are eager for the Donghuang Tribe to conflict with us."
"So that we can completely eliminate the three major fleets of our navy."
These words. As soon as he said it, the generals couldn't help but frown.
They all knew very well that what this man stated was a fact. Whether it was the two and a half eighty-eight fleets or the aircraft carrier, they were all huge mountains in front of Long Xia's army.
If we can't get over it, then trying to get out of the first island chain will be empty talk.
Let alone heading towards the Pacific Ocean.
In fact, in the final analysis, it is because the Eighty-Eight Fleet of the Donghuang tribe has such a famous name in the Dongzhou waters and has existed for too long.
So much so that people have formed a fixed mindset and feel that Longxia Navy is inferior to them.
Occasionally, I met them and suddenly took action to catch the enemy off guard. Some commanders felt confident that they could defeat the opponent.
If they faced the entire Haizi, they would have no confidence in their hearts.
After all, there has never been such a large-scale confrontation with Haizi before, and it is really impossible to be sure.
Long Xia's navy has indeed grown up, but the leaders of the navy have not really changed their minds for a while.
The leaders had a heated discussion, and gradually those who advocated a war became the majority, and the voices were the highest.
But in this way, the pressure is directly put on the navy.
Obviously, the Donghuang tribe will also be dispatched from the sea this time, and it will eventually be implemented in fleet operations.
"Comrade Hua Ming, your navy has been making a lot of noise recently, so you are not sure about taking action?" The chief of the Air Force spoke first, and he looked at Liu Huaming, who was not far away.
"Yes, we have recently made concessions to you in terms of funding. You exported quite a few ships some time ago, and even sank four Haizi warships."
“I think you should be very confident.”
The big brother of the Army also spoke up. They had received a lot of technology transfer from the Navy some time ago, and the Navy's recent development has been very rapid.
Seeing that everyone's attention was focused on himself, the supreme commander of the navy, Liu Huaming naturally couldn't say anything.
"What you two said is true. Our navy's actions are a bit big, and its hard bones are still there."
"In the past, our navy could drive small boats to carry out guerrilla warfare at sea, but now We dare to show our swords when we meet the enemy. We don’t care about the bullshit air defense identification zone. As long as the little devil dares to cross the red line, we will fight back resolutely.” , as long as you dare to come, we dare to fight!”
"Although our navy is not as powerful as the little devils, but so what, we still dare to show our swords with them, even if we sacrifice ourselves."
Liu Huaming did not hide his attitude of fighting, and responded very seriously road.
The momentum is overwhelming and full of confidence!
Everyone at the scene could see that Liu Huaming definitely didn’t just talk the talk, he definitely meant what he said!
But when they looked at the navy, there was a hint of worry in their eyes.
The navy is developing very fast, and they all know it.
But the development time is still too short. It is said that a century-old navy is very difficult.
Even if cheating occurs, how far can it develop?
Donghuang Tribe has been developing for decades, and behind it is the Eagle Tribe, the maritime hegemon, who provides technical support. Compared with this, the gap is still very obvious.
Thinking of this, the generals couldn't help but feel a lot heavier.
It is not an exaggeration to say that the Army ranks first in Blue Star, but it is still beyond its reach when it comes to maritime conflicts. Even if it has the idea of using ballistic missiles to hit warships, there is still a long way to go before it can develop missiles.
Compared to the army, the air force may be able to provide some support.
However, due to the time in the air and the backward model of the aircraft, it cannot be of much help.
After all, if the Air Force dispatches fighter planes, the Japs will definitely dispatch air fighters to help. The other side has the advanced F15J. All of these fighters are very new and very durable.
Once a fight breaks out, the outcome is uncertain.
If the Long Xia Navy had an aircraft carrier, the meaning would be completely different. It would be able to conduct long-term operations in the air without having to worry about returning without fuel.
And isn’t the Varyag of the Long Xia tribe still on the way?
Besides, even if it is pulled back, it cannot be used directly. It needs to be modernized and modified to turn it into a giant ship capable of performing combat missions.
If you want to rely on it, you still don’t know the year of the monkey and the month of the horse.
Thinking of this, the expressions of the generals became much darker.
At this moment, they are all longing for the aircraft carrier.
The century-old aircraft carrier dream has once again become concrete and realistic.
If the Longxia tribe wants to achieve its rise, aircraft carriers must be a topic that cannot be avoided, and they are also the standard equipment of the navies of modern powers!
The Asan tribe has several aircraft carriers, so they clamor all day long to make the entire ocean their own.
“Everyone, I disagree with the views of this navy chief.”
At this moment, a discordant sound suddenly sounded, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.
It turns out that this man is Dong Xijin from the think tank. He is in his sixties, has silver hair, and calls himself a senior military scholar.
He is a very well-known military expert in the country and has attended major conferences many times.
I have also put forward many constructive opinions, and I still have some status in the academic circle, so I have naturally won the respect of many leaders.
Inviting him to attend the meeting this time, of course, we also want to listen to his opinions.
Hearing this, Xue Shuai also looked over, wanting to hear what the other party had to say.
When holding this kind of meeting, it is always important to listen and understand, and different opinions are allowed to exist.
Of course, the premise is that it needs to be reasonable and meet current needs.
Su Dingping also looked at him, curious about what he would say.
“I think fighting is not the best solution.”
After making his attitude clear first, Dong Xijin then began to talk eloquently.
"As the old saying goes, the first step is to fight with troops and the second is to fight for friendship."
"The chief of the Navy, I want to ask, once we have a conflict with Haizi, Can we win? "
Seeing the opponent running directly towards him, Liu Huaming frowned immediately, but he couldn't speak. After all, he was not sure of winning.
“Okay, I already know what you mean.”
"Obviously, our navy chiefs feel that there is little chance of winning."
"But what I want to tell you is that this dispatch is not just from the sea, there must be the instigation of the Eagle Tribe behind it. It’s a test.”
“I think we should stay calm and not resort to force for the time being. Instead, we should issue protests and condemnations from the foreign affairs department, clearly express our attitude to the outside world, and not admit it!”
“In the past years, we have also operated in this way.”
“In this way, we can avoid conflicts and ensure that our peaceful development is not interrupted and we fall into the enemy’s trap.”
Having said this, Dong Xijin looked around the people and saw that none of the generals spoke. He couldn't help but feel a little proud, so he started to speak in a high-sounding way.
“What is our main task now? Development and continuous accumulation of strength.”
“Now that we have finally made some achievements in economic construction, some people are clamoring to go to the surrounding tribes. If there is a conflict, isn't this cutting off our opportunities for development? "
"War costs money and kills people. What we have to do now is to be kind to our neighbors and send people to the Eastern Wilderness tribe. Communicate and resolve the dispute as soon as possible.”
“In the final analysis, they just moved the air defense identification zone forward by 80 kilometers, and did not say that they would delimit the airspace.”
"If we react violently and go to war, the other side will be able to use it as an excuse to start a war with us and drag us into the mud of war."
"Comrades, go up to the battlefield and make plans. We should The only thing is to communicate with them.”
Dong Xijin’s long speech immediately changed the direction of the scene.
Seeing him, everyone spoke up, and several other think tank members also spoke up, expressing their unwillingness to start a war.
Everyone believes that the Donghuang Tribe’s expansion of the Air Defense Identification Zone is just a test, and there is no substantive move. The Longxia Tribe has not suffered any major losses.
Some people even think that this loss is nothing to the Longxia tribe.
The neutral generals at the scene also frowned, and it was obvious that they were a little shaken.
As for the generals who had previously advocated the use of force to solve the problem, their expressions became extremely serious at this time, and everyone was very unhappy. They were military generals and were not just talking around.
Xue Shuai, who was sitting in the first place, said nothing and just glanced in Liu Huaming's direction.
