Chapter 1068: Operation Codename "Thunder"
Under the multitude of flashes and shutters, the two men exchanged documents after signing them, and their hands were tightly clasped together. The leaders of the two countries www.biquge.info who witnessed the ceremony also applauded and smiled. That's right, this is the signing ceremony of the whole project, although there are many agreements reached between the two sides, but under the witness of the leaders of the two parties, only three or four contracts have been signed, and the rest have been signed in private. Of course, it was also because of the conclusion of this contract that the owner of Lao Mei * Palace visited the capital, and there was this scene just now. As for Jiang Chen, the people who participated in the negotiation were successful and retired, some of them watched the ceremony from the side, and the other part did not even have the qualifications to watch the ceremony.
Of course, as the person in charge of business, Jiang Chen naturally had this opportunity to watch the ceremony, but because of his age and consideration of his identity, he was placed in a group of people, and the camera only swept for two seconds. If you don't pay attention, I'm afraid no one will recognize that it is Jiang Chen. However, for Jiang Chen, this kind of thing under the flash light should be left to others to do, and he should keep a low profile. It's just that this kind of low-key doesn't work very well, obviously it seems that both sides know Jiang Chen's identity, so when the leaders of the two sides met with the staff of both sides, they warmly shook hands with Jiang Chen. Moreover, the old man also grabbed Jiang Chen's hand and said some words of encouragement.
After seeing off the Lao and US heads of state and delegation, the higher-level leaders specially held a celebration party for our staff members participating in the talks. As for Jiang Chen, as the leader of relevant aspects, he is naturally among them. However, because of another matter, Jiang Chen only attended for about twenty minutes before leaving the venue early.
Since the end of the conversation with Lei Zhan, Jiang Chen has been participating in the discussion and drafting process of the entire plan. So much so that the people at the headquarters directly took Jiang Chen out of the hotel where the working group was staying and stayed in the headquarters' own hotel. Therefore, Jiang Chen quickly finished handing over the work with the rest of the working group and threw himself into the work on the Dao side. Although the negotiations have been signed, there are still some follow-up matters that need to be handled by the working group to deal with the aftermath, so the working group cannot be disbanded for a while.
And here, in addition to participating in the entire planning process, Jiang Chen also had to accompany Lei Zhan and Cao Yuntian to hold meetings non-stop. Although Lei Zhan and Cao Yuntian are mortal enemies, with Cao Yuntian transferred to the headquarters, the relationship between the two has eased a lot. Again, although the two sides are mortal enemies, it is just the result of the two of them competing with each other, and there is no contradiction between the two people, and there is no pimple. This is just the result of two young people who were not convinced by each other and competed with each other, and this competition has continued for decades. And now, I don't know who spoke first, anyway, the relationship between the two has become much more harmonious. There was even a time when Jiang Chen saw the two of them drinking together, and there was such a change, which was said to be Jiang Chen's credit in the middle.
However, there is a lot of controversy not only at the top level, but also within the military. First of all, on one question, to fight or not to fight? If we do so, it will have an adverse impact on the current domestic economic development and may be in an unfavorable situation in the international arena. In addition, at present, the level of weaponry and relevant training of our navy is obviously insufficient, so how can we guarantee that we will win a decisive victory on the battlefield from thousands of miles away? If you don't fight, you will give up this rare opportunity in vain, and watch people swallow all this sea area, thus making huge profits. And if you miss the current reality, it will be very difficult to meddle in this area in the future. The opinions of the two sides were controversial at first, but as more and more relevant information was collected in this sea area, everyone also became more and more aware of this sea area, so the opposition voice became smaller and smaller, and the voice of the main battle gradually occupied the mainstream. At this time, the above also made up its mind, that is, to fight, not only to fight, but also to take advantage of this opportunity to fight as quickly as possible.
With the final word on both sides, then everyone rushed to 'fight' to discuss. So how to fight has become a matter of debate again. Anyway, there are a lot of people who put forward various plans, but after discussion, everyone still agrees with the battle plan submitted by Lei Zhan. Of course, most of this content was the result of Jiang Chen and Lei Zhan's joint discussion. Then the corresponding preparations began, first of all, it became a special command and leading group for the island seizure campaign, and the operation code name was 'Thunder'. The leader of the command leading group is also the chief general, and according to tradition, it is naturally named by an old commander. The deputy team leader is also the commander-in-chief of the former enemy, and the person in charge of the specific work of the entire campaign is Lei Zhan. Because after all, he is the leader of the Southern Theater of Operations, and he is familiar with the specific situation of this generation, and there is also a deputy team leader, who is also the leader of the Southern Fleet, and he participates in the entire operation. Of course, in addition to these people, there are also some relevant personnel from various ministries of the army, navy and air, including Jiang Chen.
It's just that Jiang Chen originally proposed to go to the front line to command in person, but he was not approved. Not only did Jiang Chen not approve it, but even Lei Jun's battle report in the wolf's den was not approved. In other words, the tasks related to the special operation in this campaign were not given to the evil wolf. Instead, it was handed over to the joint special operations force composed of the Jiaolong Amphibious Special Operations Group of the Navy and the 'Sword Special Operations Force' of the Southern Theater to be responsible for the relevant combat tasks in this campaign. In the words of the chief, that is, the evil wolf has eaten enough fat, so leave it to others this time. Besides, this is originally the territory of the Jiaolong Amphibious Special Operations Brigade and the 'Sword Special Operations Force', so they should be used first.
In this regard, although Jiang Chen and Lei Jun were unwilling, they could only do so. However, in the process of commanding the headquarters, the command work of the special operation was handed over to Jiang Chen by his superiors, after all, he was familiar with this aspect. It's just that in the face of some unfamiliar combat teams, Jiang Chen is still quite uneasy to use.
Preparations to the south were also underway in secret and intense. For example, the targeted training of relevant combat units, which includes offensive and defensive drills of the Marine Corps. There are also special operations, especially in the island-seizing exercise, which also carried out relevant targeted exercises. And in accordance with the whole plan, we have opened a temporary runway on a newly occupied island in the South Key archipelago. Because of the construction of the runway, a large number of cargo ships transporting building materials and equipment are gathered here. This made the neighboring countries, especially the Nanban, think that we have reacted and are ready to increase their efforts to fight for the islands in this sea. As a result, these countries have also stepped up their plundering in this regard. It's just that they don't know that in these cargo ships transporting building materials, they actually secretly carry relevant materials and equipment, and all this is going on quietly.
