Chapter 25: The Supreme Military Council (3)

"Minister Chi, what you said is very good, this is exactly what I think! It's just that we are now holding a supreme military conference to study the issue of the fate of the country, and I can't have the final say alone, but I still have to listen to everyone's opinions. ”

Wang Pingtao knows that although he is the president, he must also pay attention to democracy, and he cannot dictate his power, and he has the final say on his own, and since he is holding a military conference, he must listen to everyone's opinions.

"What the president said is, let the commanders of several major military regions take a look at this paper and see what opinions everyone has!" After Chi Shanfang finished speaking, he handed the paper to the commander of the naval military region beside him.

After the commander of the naval military district read it, he gave it to the commander of the Eastern Military District, and then to the commander of the Southern Military District.

Some of these commanders of military regions and chiefs of general staff have graduated from science and some have graduated from liberal arts, and some of them can understand some of this astonishing paper, while some may not understand it at all.

Zhang Dajun is a college student who graduated from literature and later joined the army, and he can't understand Zhao Zhongyao's thesis at all.

Just now he had already seen Zhao Zhongyao unpleasantly, just a little colonel, he wrote a paper that others couldn't understand, and he actually won the trust of the president, and at the highest military meeting, he actually sat next to the president, which had long made Zhang Dajun very unhappy.

"Mr. President, I don't understand this thesis, but in any case, I don't approve of making any atomic bombs, and although our military strength is not as good as that of country M, it is not worse than those small island countries. As long as we step up military training during this period of time, it's a big deal, and when the time comes, all the people will be soldiers, and I don't believe that we will not be able to defeat those four small island countries.

If we are now working on this atomic bomb, if we do not succeed in researching it, it will not be a waste of manpower and financial resources, but a lot of financial resources will be used to fight a war, and we will have exhausted our financial resources before we have started a war with the enemy, and then the enemy will not have to attack, and we will already be defeated.

Therefore, I am not in favor of researching atomic bombs, and it is more reliable to use our financial resources on the development of conventional weapons. Studying the atomic bomb now is purely risking something that doesn't make much sense. ”

Zhang Dajun only glanced at the paper, and felt that it was pointless to study the atomic bomb.

"Well, what Chief of General Staff Zhang said is also true, our country really can't stand the toss, and if we can't build an atomic bomb within six months this time, then it's really better not to do this thing!"

Wang Pingtao listened to Zhang Dajun's words, he did not object, but felt that it was reasonable.

"No, Mr. President, I still think that we should conduct research on the atomic bomb, because we have no way out, and even according to what Chief of Staff Zhang said, all the people are soldiers, I am afraid that it is also a risky act! Chief of Staff Zhang, I am sure that if all of us are soldiers, we will definitely be able to fight the four island countries and the M country!"

Chi Shanfang came out of the Military Industry University, and after reading Zhao Zhongyao's paper, he felt that the atomic bomb was still very likely to be studied. And now China can only be saved with the atomic bomb.

"Minister Chi, are you sure that you will be able to develop an atomic bomb within six months! If the enemy soldiers come to the city by then, and we have not yet made an atomic bomb, what will we do? Have you thought about the consequences of this strict zhòng!"

Within the Chinese military, there have always been two factions, one is the reformist faction headed by Chi Shanfang, who advocates military reform in Huaguo. This includes the development of a number of new types of weapons and equipment. On the other hand, the old-fashioned faction headed by Zhang Dajun, chief of the General Staff, only pays attention to the military training of the troops and improves the military quality of individual soldiers, but does not advocate the reform of the armed forces, and also studies a large number of new types of equipment.

Every year the military conference is a struggle for power between these two factions.

This time was no exception, and on the question of whether or not to study the atomic bomb, the leaders of the two factions began to bargain.

"Chief of Staff Zhang, then it must be a good idea for all your people to be soldiers. If at that time, all the troops of China will not be able to defeat the attack of the four island countries, then you say, how many casualties will we have! At that time, we will not only lose the country, but also the people! Have you thought about such a strict consequence?"

After listening to Chief of Staff Zhang's words, Minister Chi naturally went-for-tat.

"Okay, you two don't quarrel, I know that everyone will have differences on this matter, so I want everyone to express their opinions! Okay, a few of you military commanders should also express their opinions!" Wang Pingtao saw that Zhang Dajun and Chi Shanfang were quarreling again because of this matter, so he hurriedly became a peacemaker.

After listening to the president's words, the commanders of several major military regions naturally began to express their opinions.

Since the commanders of several military districts are also members of the two factions of the chief of the general staff and the minister of defense, naturally, some people agree to study the atomic bomb, and some people do not. In short, there are still differences of opinion.

"Okay, it seems that everyone still disagrees! Then let's have a show of hands!" The president saw that everyone still had differences, so he had to let everyone raise their hands to vote.

But now there are twelve people in this room. In addition to the president, there are eleven people. With this gesture, the winner will be decided. There were only four people who agreed, naturally Zhao Zhongyao, Zuo Junqiang, Li Longyun and Chi Shanfang. And the commanders of the six major military regions and Chief of General Staff Zhang did not agree.

This was somewhat unexpected by the president, who was also a reformist, and who advocated the study of the atomic bomb.

"How can this be the case, do you commanders of the six military regions feel that there is no need to study the atomic bomb? I tell you that I am in favor of the study of the atomic bomb. Because, the only way out now is to study the atomic bomb. What do you mean if you don't agree?"

President Wang Pingtao saw that the commanders of the six military regions did not agree, and he felt very strange, so he asked.

Besides, Zhao Zhongyao also felt very strange, why did all the commanders of the six major military regions become members of Chief of General Staff Zhang's faction!

Of course, the happiest person now is Chief of General Staff Zhang, and he did not expect that the commanders of the six major military regions would all stand on his side, which was really unexpected.

"Haha, okay! Now look at how you sing Chi Shanfang's play, the commanders of the six major military regions are all on my side, don't you disarm and surrender!" Zhang Dajun was happy in his heart.
