Chapter 167: Don't be unpredictable
Washington, Pentagon.
Since last night, the US Department of Defense has been in an unusually tense atmosphere.
In particular, after the air battle in Las Vegas in the early hours of the morning, the media continued to call the Pentagon to ask the Department of Defense for confirmation of matters related to the air war, but the Pentagon refused to give any reason for military secrets.
Of course, many reporters have asked Pentagon sources for help, but they still haven't received any useful answers.
This time, Ao Guanhai not only narrowed down the scope of people in the know to a minimum, but also issued a strict order, once there is any leakage, it will be investigated to the end and will not be tolerated.
Leon Panetta hurried to the break room of the Department of Defense's underground command center and said to the White House secretary standing at the door, "Is Mr. President awake?"
"Not yet, Mr. Director, is there something going on on with Captain's Peak?"
Leon Panetta thought for a moment and said, "It's not Captain Peak...... Mr. President slept for less than two hours, and he will wait until he wakes up. β
β¦β¦
Ao Guanhai didn't sleep deeply, and he heard as if someone had mentioned him, he opened his eyes, and was stunned for a long time before he slowly woke up.
Ao Guanhai hurriedly got up from the bed, and through the window of the lounge, he could see that the director of the CIA was talking to his secretary.
As if thinking of something, Ao Guanhai hurriedly put on his shoes, walked over and opened the door of the lounge, and asked, "Mr. Panetta, is there any movement on the Captain's Peak?"
"Mr. President, you're awake!"
Leon Panetta glanced at the White House secretary standing next to him. said: "It's not Captain Peak. β
The White House secretary hurriedly said, "Mr. President, I'll go pour you a cup of coffee." β
Ao Guanhai nodded, watched the figure of the White House secretary disappear around the corner, and then said, "Mr. Panetta, you can talk about it now!"
Leon Panetta looked around and whispered a few words into O'Guanhai's ear.
"What? Are you sure?"
Ao Guanhai suddenly changed color and exclaimed, maybe it was too loud, and many staff members of the command center looked towards Mr. President.
"The engine has been dismantled and the material experts are inspecting the text on the blades. See how exactly it came to be. β
Ao Guanhai's brows furrowed tightly.
β¦β¦
Soon. The plenary session of the US National Security Council was reconvened.
A rubbed photo of the text appeared on the LCD screen, accompanied by an English translation below, and everyone fell silent.
The text is not big, judging by the photos. The superalloy turbine disc of F119 has more than a dozen words on each blade. After Chinese translation processing. These words make up a short paragraph.
"Hello friends of all major civilizations and countries, we deeply regret the air battle that took place over Las Vegas tonight. The responsibility for this conflict lies entirely with the Karn, and all the consequences of this will be borne by the Karn alone. Here, our bureau once again makes a solemn statement to you that our bureau has the determination, confidence and ability to defend the sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity of the earth, and any attempts and provocations of foreign civilizations against the earth will be resolutely dealt with by our bureau. I hope that some foreign civilizations will think for themselves, and not make choices that they regret, and don't say that they are unpredictableββ and the Office of Earth Defense of the Strategic Fool Bureau. β
The conference room was quiet and audible, without the whispers of the past, and exchanged ears, after all, the amount of information in this passage was too large, and for a while, everyone had a feeling that they couldn't accept the impact.
It took a long time for Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to say, "I want to ask, what does the zuihou sentence in this text mean?"
Secretary of Defense Robert Gates, who is proficient in Chinese, said: "Don't say it in advance, which means don't say that you haven't told you in advance, and generally mean saying it in advance." β
Hillary Clinton shook her head and said, "I understand the literal meaning of this sentence, but I seem to have heard this sentence somewhere." β
"Heard?"
The people in the conference room looked at each other, not knowing what Hillary meant for a moment.
At this time, CIA Director Leon Panetta seemed to think of something and said: "I remember, I have seen a piece of information before, which is about the diplomatic anecdote of the Chinese government, and this sentence was mentioned in it. The Chinese Foreign Ministry is said to have quoted this sentence several times, the first time in 1967 when the Soviet Embassy in China used wiretapping to obtain intelligence against China, and then the Sino-Soviet conflict over Zhenbao Island broke out. The remaining two were on the eve of the Sino-Vietnamese War in 1978 and the Sino-Indian border war in 1962. Therefore, this sentence is generally seen as a signal that China is ready to go to war. But since China began to develop its economy, it has basically not been used. β
The conference room fell silent again, and Alexander said, "This is indeed in line with the style of the Strategic Fooling Bureau, with a strong Chinese imprint." But I think what we need to pay more attention to is what is the hidden meaning behind this sentence, and what does the text of weishenme appear on the powder alloy turbine disc blades of the F119 aircraft engine, and what does the major civilizations mean when it is mentioned above? Do other countries receive similar messages as we do? Mr. Kahn has not made any action until now, is it related to the war? Zuihou, I think the most important thing is, what kind of attitude should the American government adopt to face the war situation next?
Alexander's words smashed like a hammer into the hearts of everyone present.
β¦β¦
"Steel hammer, I'll rub it, your language level has improved greatly, and you can even use 'don't say it in advance'. β
Gangyi said triumphantly: "Of course, if you write a novel about such a long event, can you not grow! This should be regarded as a warning to Lao Mei, and he dares to pay attention to our war." By the way, Lao Dou, it shouldn't be a problem for me to write like this!"
Chen Xin couldn't help but smile and said: "There's no problem, I'm just wondering what Ao Guanhai's reaction will be after seeing this passage, and whether the Yankees will also come up with a leading group for dealing with the sudden situation of war like China! Forget it, no matter, we will do ours, with such a warning, the United States should be much more restrained." By the way, Steelhammer, pay attention to the monitoring of the Green House in the future, the Yankees still have three Karn people in their hands, and I don't know if they will make any more moths. β
Gangyi said: "Old Bean, don't worry, I have established a connection with the central computer of the Green House through the central computer of Los Alamos National Laboratory, and once there is any movement, I will definitely know it as soon as possible." (To be continued......)
