Chapter 678: A New Beginning
The autumn breeze is cool, the night is thick, a black sedan in the north ~~ah~~ Beijing long ~~An~~ street through the car, the driver deployed by the parade headquarters will drive the car very steadily, outside the window of the renovated ancient city wall, the newly decorated magnificent city tower and the magnificent square of flowers, have in the light of the brilliance of the glitter, dazzling extraordinary.
In this vibrant landscape, the time also unconsciously entered the end of September 84, just a few months ago, not long after the battle of Zhongyue Prison Mountain ended, several participating troops received orders from the General Staff, as the 35th anniversary of the National Day military parade training troops, immediately to the north ~~ah~~ Beijing suburbs of the south ~~~ Yuan Airport assembled, began to parade training.
Lu Jiadong, as the representative of the developer and manufacturer of many reference equipment, also received orders from the Equipment Department of the General Staff Department and the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense, as the leader of the reference equipment technical support group, to go to the newly established parade ~ soldier ~ village, but after Lu Jiadong arrived in the north ~~ah~~ Beijing, he found that what was waiting for him was not only the maintenance and support task of the reference equipment, but also the upcoming Sino-US economic and technological negotiations;
As a military expert who has defeated his opponent in countless negotiations, Lu Jiadong was seconded to the negotiation delegation by Xu Yuan, the successor director of the Equipment Department of the General Staff, before he stepped into the parade ~ soldier ~ village, as one of the main forces in the confrontation with the United States, and was ready to take advantage of the favorable situation created after the battle of Gaoshan in China and Vietnam to reach a series of important military technology transfer agreements with the United States!
In this regard, Lu Jiadong did not feel any trouble, he has participated in similar negotiations countless times, plus holding the big golden finger of the traverser, it should not be difficult to deal with the Americans at the negotiation table, but to his surprise, this time the Americans seemed to see through all his hole cards;
No matter what means Lu Jiadong used, the Americans' mouth never loosened in terms of the most core aviation technology, and they wanted to sort out their ideas and continue to fight wits and courage with the Americans at the negotiation table, but they did not expect that an instruction from the old chief completely interrupted Lu Jiadong's idea;
This made Lu Jiadong very unwilling, very annoyed, and very powerless, especially in the last meeting, in the face of the Americans' gloomy smile that saw through everything, Lu Jiadong couldn't help but clench his fists, even if he knew very well that the old chief would accept it when he saw it was because of the changes in the international environment, and he also understood that there was a more complicated game at the government level, but Lu Jiadong was still very unwilling, so that when he was received by the old chief, he was a little depressed
"Although China has a large territory, its national strength is not strong, and it has a large population, but there are not many good things that can be obtained!"
"Finding a balance with the United States and the Soviet Union and obtaining the maximum benefits in the subtleties is the most realistic choice at the moment!"
"If we want to develop and be strong, we must have a stable environment, which is a key point and a key point!"
"We old guys are old, even if we want to read the newspaper, our eyes can't keep up, it's a matter of time before we go to see the horse~~g~~ thinking, the heavy responsibility will eventually be handed over to you young people, but we can also exert a little residual heat, at least create a peaceful environment for you for about ten years"
Looking at the shining lights outside the car window, Lu Jiadong's mind kept repeating the gentle and earnest words of the old chief just now, and he knew how the senior leaders, including the old chief, judged the situation and used a Sino-Vietnamese war to bring the two superpowers of the United States and the Soviet Union into it.
The judgment of the situation, the grasp of the situation, the use of means, and the selection of methods can be called the pinnacle of wisdom, and when the Soviet Union was hostile and the United States played the card in the T region, it was able to fight its way out with ease, not only to ease the tense external environment, but also to obtain a lot of economic and practical benefits.
It can be said that this group of veteran leaders who have gone through 25,000 miles of ~~~ expeditions and bloody battles for more than ten years are indeed not the cute scholars (Go~Er~Ba~Jo~Fu) who can only stare at the domestic struggle, or the second-tier Hollywood stars (Ronald Reagan) who can only act, so Lu Jiadong knows what kind of hard work the leaders of the older generation have made in order to obtain a relaxed development environment for this great country and ancient nation
But it is precisely because of this that Lu Jiadong's mood has become more and more heavy, no way, compared with the two superpowers of the United States and the Soviet Union, China's comprehensive national strength is not half a star, especially in terms of armed forces, even if China has made great progress in recent years, but the reality of focusing on ground equipment still has a big system loophole
"No matter how advanced our tanks are, no matter how far the rockets hit, no matter how accurate the artillery is, it is all something on the ground, and on the top of these equipment, we still do not hold up a thick enough umbrella, neither the Soviets nor the Americans are fools, and they have long seen that we are deficient in this regard, so they are neither afraid nor disdainful, after all, these things can scare and scare the small country of Vietnam, and it is really not worth mentioning against a really strong enemy like the United States and the Soviet Union!"
Before leaving, the old chief's meaningful words can be said to be powerful through the back of the paper, more like a slap on Lu Jiadong's heart, the old chief is right, even if China's weapons and equipment Yang Wei and Yi dominate the jungle of Vietnam, but in the final analysis, they are all things on the ground, in the face of the United States' super attack force, and the Soviet Union's extraordinary combat power of the air strike force, these things on the ground are only passively beaten;
Moreover, the United States' recent proposal of air-ground integrated warfare emphasizes the leading role of the air force in future wars; as for the Soviet Union's theory of large-depth operations, it has long placed the offensive of front-line aviation, air defense forces, and long-range aviation units in an extremely important position.
In the face of such a strong enemy, the Chinese Navy and Air Force, which are still struggling to support with a large number of Jian-6, cannot stop the surprise attack of high-performance fighters of the United States and the Soviet Union, let alone cover the ground forces, because of this, neither the Soviet Union nor the United States have really been afraid of China, but they do not want the other side to increase their strategic weight and fall into passivity, so they will compete to win over China
To tell the truth, if it weren't for the Soviet Union's Go~Er~Ba~Choi~fu extreme suppression of the military's superiority, which led to a series of foreign policy tricks, and the US government's eagerness to achieve success in the US-Soviet hegemony, it can be said that such an opportunity would definitely be unavoidable for China.
In a few years, when the Soviet Union collapsed and the United States became the dominant power, China, which was regarded as a potential enemy by the United States, lost the strategic space to maneuver between the two powers, and what kind of helplessness and resentment China would endure in the face of the strong pressure of the United States alone, as a military expert who came through later generations, Lu Jiadong knows better than anyone else:
"If you want to no longer be passive in the future, you have to improve your strength!" Looking at the night sky as black as ink outside the car window, Lu Jiadong was deep and bright, his lips pursed slightly, and he muttered what he was thinking:
"If you want to improve your strength, you must first make the umbrella above the sky thicker!"
"Umbrella, is it going to rain today, the weather forecast seems to say no rain!"
Just when Lu Jiadong was deep in thought, the young driver who was driving suddenly explained a little nervously, Lu Jiadong was slightly stunned when he heard it, and then he understood, and finally a trace of an indifferent smile finally appeared on his calm face:
"I'm not talking about an umbrella to keep out the rain, but an umbrella to keep the enemy's fighters out!"
The same umbrella, but the meaning to be expressed is very different, the driver in front of him only felt a little twisted after listening to it, thinking to himself, Lu Jiadong is worthy of being a top expert in the field of military industry, and his words are different, so he smiled:
"I don't know if there are any fighters developed by Chief Lu in this parade!"
"Nope!"
Lu Jiadong shook his head and replied in the affirmative, but then said in a more affirmative tone, word by word:
"I hope that in the next National Day military parade, there will be Wanshan's plane to be reviewed!"
"It should be fine!"
"Jiadong, your idea is really true"
In the quiet late night, everything is silent, and the soldiers who have worked hard all day have already fallen asleep, but in the dormitory of the equipment support group in the northwest corner of the parade ~ soldier ~ village, the lights are still bright, at this moment, as the deputy head of the reference equipment technical support group, Hu Qinghua, holding a report that Lu Jiadong had just drafted, a pair of eyes earned the boss, and the big mouth was open for a long time but he couldn't say a word, and I don't know how long it took to barely recover his mind, and said in amazement:
"Jiadong, our Wanshan factory can draw an airplane drawing at most, everything else is blank, this is not like making guns and artillery, it is all about ordnance, overcoming it is over, that is aviation, even the major aviation factories directly under the state are not clear, we have no talent, no funds, no technology, we want to build an aviation production plant, Jiadong, you won't really be sick, right?"
Listening to Hu Qinghua's words, Lu Jiadong did not feel strange, to be honest, when he held the pen to write this report, he also felt a little crazy, after all, the aviation plant is not the upper lip touches the lower lip, saying that it can be built, which is designed to the site, technology, talents, technology and countless funds
If you want to solve these things, let alone a small Wanshan factory, even a country may not be able to completely solve it, but Lu Jiadong still resolutely picked up the pen in his hand and wrote his thoughts neatly on the white stationery, because he had a breath in his heart, and he didn't want to be passive and embarrassed anymore, and let others be the little brother, because of this, he didn't mind starting again at a new ~~~ point, even if it was a long way to go, full of thorns (to be continued. )
