Chapter 1276 The trump card in the ocean (third update, please subscribe)
“…”
On that day, Nanyang seemed to have suspended work, with thousands of Nanyang people watching the TV Currently, we are waiting for the final verdict of Zhang Mingguo's revenge case, which is known as the "trial of the century."
This 17-day trial attracted the attention of the entire Southeast Asia. It also triggered a heated discussion on which is more important: "legal justice" or "ethical justice".
Do results matter?
No matter what the result is, just like Li Yi'an said - respect the jury's decision.
For Nanyang, this is just an incident in 1962. Although in the following decades, there will always be heated discussions about this case, and it has also been discussed in judicial cases. mentioned many times.
But for a country, this is just an episode in the history of the country. The only sad thing is that during the whole process, no one attempted to interfere in the trial of the case.
No matter what the reason is, everyone is just paying attention to the case, and no one attempts to use personal influence to influence the case.
In this way, a case that attracted great public attention came to an end with the end of the trial. Although it caused too much controversy, it was just a controversy.
While people in Nanyang were attracted by this trial, few people noticed that at a naval base near Chang'an, a ballistic missile nuclear submarine with a displacement of more than 6,000 tons was officially put into service. This was the first strategic nuclear submarine in Nanyang.
What does its service mean?
Li Yian knows this better than anyone else.
"If a nuclear war breaks out, they hiding in the darkness of the ocean will bring an end to the war!"
Looking at the submarine that has slipped into the sea, Li Yian said:
"Well, from now on, I can finally sleep peacefully!"
Although Nanyang is the third country in the world to possess nuclear weapons, whether it is an air-based strategic bomber or a land-based strategic missile , are not the ultimate trump card, only ballistic missile nuclear submarines are the real trump card.
Ballistic missile nuclear submarines usually cruise secretly in the ocean and can retaliate against the enemy if they suffer a nuclear attack and the country is destroyed. Therefore, they are regarded as a nuclear deterrent that can avoid wars and conflicts. .
“Two years!”
Li Yian said to Zou Tongjie beside him:
"Our ballistic missile nuclear submarines are two years behind the United States and one and a half years behind the Soviet Union, but generally speaking, we are still catching up with them."
"It's not just catching up, Your Excellency. "
Zou Tongjie was quite excited, and even his tone became a little excited:
"Our ballistic missile nuclear submarines have better performance. The Russian "Hotel Class" ballistic missile nuclear submarines, There are only 3 ballistic missile launchers with a range of no more than 2,000 kilometers. Although the US Washington-class missile bay is equipped with 16 ballistic missile launchers, the Polaris ballistic missile they are equipped with has a range of only 2,200 kilometers. , and our "Guardian" class not only has 16 ballistic missile launchers, but the "Guardian" ballistic missile it uses not only has a range of up to 3,000 kilometers, but also has a warhead yield of more than 800,000 tons, which can be said to be the most powerful in the world at present. The most powerful submarine-launched ballistic missile. ”
3000 kilometers, 800,000 tons!
These numbers may not seem very impressive, but in this era, these two numbers contain power that makes no country dare to act rashly.
Perhaps Nanyang is slightly behind the United States and the Soviet Union in the development of nuclear submarines, but in terms of performance and quality, it far surpasses them. Sometimes it seems to be lagging behind, but it is actually leading, just like the Soviet Union. Although it quickly caught up with the United States and had its own ballistic missile nuclear submarine, its submarine could only carry 3 missiles and the range Very close!
This kind of chasing is not chasing, but a waste! A serious waste of resources!
"Now the Guardian B-type missile is also under development, and its range is expected to exceed 3,500 kilometers. Your Excellency, with the "Guardian" class ballistic missile nuclear submarine, we can destroy any country at any time as long as we are willing. !”
When talking about destroying a country, Zou Tongjie’s tone seemed extremely calm, as if he was mentioning something not worth mentioning. In fact, this is a common characteristic of Nanyang generals. , painful lessons have taught them the principle of "pre-emptive strike". According to Nanyang's nuclear strike strategy, once it is determined that a country threatens Nanyang's national security, Nanyang will use "ultimate means" to destroy the enemy country as soon as possible. Thereby protecting the security of Nanyang.
"Yes, both the Americans and the Soviets said they were "ensuring the destruction of each other"..."
Looking at the strategic nuclear submarine that had set sail, Li Yian said:
"But "ensuring" "Destroy" just ensures that you have the ability to destroy others, while "destroy first" means holding a gun and being ready to shoot at any time!
Some people may say that this is too extreme, but this is Nanyang! After all, Nanyang There are only a few central cities, and no one is willing to risk the lives of hundreds of millions of people. Therefore, the basic strategy of destroying Nanyang first is a completely different strategy of "ensuring destruction."
Although. Judging from the experience of later generations, the greatest power of nuclear weapons is on the launcher, but from the perspective of one's own safety, it is more secure to "destroy first".
"So, next, we will not only deploy more strategic missile nuclear submarines, but also study anti-missile measures to ensure that our missiles can hit others, but others cannot hit us. Just relying on passive defense is not enough. Able to protect one's own safety. "
The "passive defense" in Li Yian's mouth refers to those protective projects, such as urban fortresses, subway stations and various civil defense projects, which may play a certain protective role. , but if you want to ensure safety, you must also study anti-missile technology. As early as a few years ago, Nanyang began to develop anti-missile technology based on the Tianjian 2 missile. This is true in Southeast Asia, and the United States and the Soviet Union are also studying anti-missile technology. Anti-ballistic missiles in their initial stages are all improvements based on air defense missiles already in service, and have changed their warheads to nuclear warheads, adopting an anti-missile strategy of using nuclear weapons to resist nuclear forces.
No matter what, under the conditions of nuclear war, everyone will do everything possible to protect themselves, just like this nuclear submarine. Although its purpose is to "ensure destruction", it is more of a deterrent, a deterrent to everything. The enemy's ambitions in Southeast Asia.
On the weekend after the "Guardian" ballistic missile nuclear submarine was launched, on the promenade by Taiping Bay, there were many people having fun on the beach as usual, men and women, and of course there were more people. Children, children may be swimming at the beach or playing in the sand. There are also many women in swimsuits playing beach volleyball there, including some in bikinis. Taiping Bay on the weekend is definitely a feast for the eyes. Although he has a beautiful wife for a long time, Clausen, sitting in the beach bar, while drinking beer, his eyes will still be on those bikini girls. Looking at his body, in fact, most of the men in the outdoor seats of the bar are like this.
At this time, a man sitting next to him said with emotion:
“People say that the East is conservative, but in fact, there are more women wearing bikinis here than in Nice, France.”< br>
The man’s words made Clausen agree:
“Yes, when the French first invented the bikini, it was banned in Belgium, Italy, Spain and Australia, and even the Vatican considered wearing a bikini Guilty, but in Nanyang, it continued to appear on the screen. Some movie actors wearing bikinis were imitated by people, and bikinis slowly became popular.”
This is the other side of the openness of Nanyang culture. Although the patriarchal atmosphere in Nanyang is very serious, it does not hinder cultural openness. Of course, this is a feast for the eyes of many people.
In this way, these two seemingly incompatible men chatted about bikinis and commented on the ladies' figures. It seemed that they were just two men with the same interests. However, when no one was around, Crowe Sen lowered his voice and said:
"Three days ago, the "Guardian" was put into service. Like the Washington class, it can carry 16 missiles, but its range is longer and more powerful."
The supervisor beside him nodded and said:
"Everything was as expected. We originally thought they would enter service at the end of last year, but we didn't expect it to be postponed until now."< br>
From Moscow's perspective, Nanyang's technology is very advanced, and because of this, they have paid close attention to the trends in Nanyang, ever since they started building ballistic missile nuclear submarines. They kept an eye on his progress, even though they were not spies there.
However, this was not the reason for their meeting. The reason why Clawson arranged to meet here was for another matter.
“We started another study a few months ago to develop a new mobile-deployable missile based on the Guardian submarine-launched missile.”
“Mobile deployment?”
Miller was stunned and said somewhat differently.
“What kind of mobile deployment?”
"The missile is installed on a heavy-duty truck."
"Installed on a truck? How is this possible?"
Miller obviously does not know that the missile can be installed on a truck launched.
As for his unusual and strange appearance, Clausen did not say anything, but said:
"As long as the truck is good enough, there will definitely be no problem in carrying missiles."< br>
Then Clausen said, while pointing at the newspaper with his finger, he said:
"During the modification process, I discovered a very strange thing."
"What? What happened?"
"That's what I found on that truck."
"What?"
"It's not just Russian. I can even conclude that the truck was probably made in the Soviet Union, because the nameplate of the car clearly says Minsk Automobile Manufacturing Plant."
Then, Crowe Sen looked at Miller and asked with doubtful evidence:
“I really don’t understand what Moscow is thinking. Don’t they know that such heavy off-road trucks can easily be Are they used in the military? The ballistic missiles they are transporting now are likely to pose a direct threat to the Soviet Union!"
Perhaps because of his excitement, Clausen couldn't help but curse. :
“What a bunch of idiots!”
Then, Clawson pointed at the newspaper with his finger and whispered:
"Here are some photos. They should need these. I hope they can correct this mistake as soon as possible!"
