After the two sides reached a preliminary compromise agreement privately, the Chinese military technical team in Argentina also completed its mission, under the leadership of Liang Shouye, the chief designer of C801, all withdrew to Santiago, Chile, before the departure of Argentina held a low-key and grand farewell ceremony for the Chinese military technical team.

Lieutenant General Messi, chief of staff of the Argentine Air Force, personally went to the airport to see off the technical team members, although the Argentine general was a little uncomfortable with the private compromise between China and Britain, but he also knew very well that his Chinese friends were powerless

The Argentine Air Force's combat planes have been completely lost, the "Daystar" patrol plane is difficult to repair in a short period of time, and the spectrum signal of the "Sky Eye" dual-base radar observation position has also been completely mastered by Britain and has completely lost its effectiveness; the most important thing is the A-4 "Skyhawk" attack plane, which can be called a "killer" ace.

After carrying out the task of attacking the aircraft carrier "Athletic God", the electronic cabin temporarily installed on the back has completely fallen off, and the life of the fuselage under the structural modification has reached the limit, which can be regarded as completely scrapped, even if there is still a little inventory of C801 anti-ship missiles in hand, it can no longer achieve the miracle of turning things around, and can only be installed on land-based launchers, taking advantage of the retreat of the British fleet, smuggled to the Falklands, and doing something better than nothing.

It is precisely because of these unknown reasons that Lieutenant General Messi knows very well in his heart that these Chinese friends of his are really benevolent and righteous, so even if he has a little bad feeling in his heart, it still does not dilute his heartfelt gratitude and deep feelings for his Chinese friends, not to mention. In the near future, he will reach the pinnacle of his dreams, and he will be immortalized by the young Chinese man who paved the way for him

"Mr. Liang. Please give this letter to Mr. Lu, and I hope to visit China in the near future!"

At the airport, Liang Shouye took the handwritten letter handed by Lieutenant General Messi and responded with a smile: "We welcome you at any time, General Messi!"

"Hopefully, there will be more extensive cooperation between us then, at least in terms of weaponry. We are very trusted!"

"We are also looking forward to working with Argentina again!"

"Me too!"

Lieutenant General Messi and Liang Shouye's hands clasped tightly in front of the gangway, and then watched Liang Shouye board the plane, shortly after Liang Shouye left. Lieutenant General Messi also got on a military transport plane and headed straight for the capital Buenos Aires, where Lieutenant General Messi caused huge losses to the Air Force due to his own ineffective command that night. Submit his resignation to President Galtieri. Surprisingly, President Galtieri did not make a reservation, but instead approved Lieutenant General Messi's request.

After the news came out, Argentina was in an uproar, knowing that Vice Admiral Messi was the direct planner and commander of the "Athletic God" and the national hero who severely damaged the British task force, and can be called the greatest general and military commander in Argentina's history since Bolívar and San Martín (both of whom were pioneers of the South American liberation movement), how could such a person make him resign?

The people who heard the news were excited. Supporters of Lieutenant General Messi held up his portrait and the slogan "National Hero" and launched a huge parade. Letters of condolence from people, social organizations, farmers, entrepreneurs, and even military generals from all over the country flew like snowflakes to Lieutenant General Messi's residence in the capital.

Just as the Argentine people's support for Lieutenant General Messi was in full swing, a presidential decree made the enthusiastic people suddenly feel the joy of victory - Lieutenant General Messi was officially appointed vice president and at the same time participated in the next Argentine presidential election as the only candidate

Just as Argentina was rebuilding the house of cards within the country, the Argentine defense line on the Falklands front was on the verge of collapse, and the British ground forces, which were already superior, successively captured Harrett Mountain, Two Sisters Mountain, Dangerous Mountain and other strongholds, aiming at the final target, Port Stanley, the capital of the Falklands.

The Royal Navy Task Force, after receiving the exact information from Lord Arteskin, also changed its previous style of retreat and prudence, boldly advanced and cooperated with the ground forces to besiege Port Stanley, in such a situation, the lack of air support, naval cooperation, and its own hasty response, the inexperienced Argentine Army units completely lost their fighting spirit, and in the early morning of June 28, after shooting out all the roadbed C801 anti-ship missiles deployed on the Falklands, formally surrendered to the British army.

At the last moment, the British task force did not guard against the attack of C801 anti-ship missiles, and added a Type 82 destroyer "Bristol" to the list of ships lost, but in any case, Britain finally won the war.

The Thatcher government, which was originally anxious, completely laid the foundation for its ruling power with this biggest victory since World War II, and the title of "Iron Lady" has also changed from a nickname that is slightly ridiculed in British politics to officially become synonymous with Margaret Thatcher's fearlessness and toughness, and is famous all over the world.

Even the British media called Mrs. Thatcher and Lloyd George during World War I, and Winston Churchill during World War II the most hawkish prime minister in modern times.

It's just a strange thing that makes people feel that the British have always been very secretive on this issue, and they really can't get over it, and they only use the "Spring and Autumn Brushwork" to brush it up, but it is the French who are like chickens and blood, and write a big book about how excellent their "Exocet" missiles are and how brilliant their "achievements" have been in actual combat.

Seeing the overwhelming propaganda of the French media, many small and medium-sized countries that do not know what to do in the dark have gone to France to negotiate the introduction of the "Exocet" missile, and for a time the "Exocet" missile has become a sweet spot in the international arms market.

France is just borrowing chickens and eggs without a lower limit, and the real good things are other things, so a delegation with a large number of dollars has flown to the ancient countries of the Far East. One after another astonishing procurement orders fell on the head of a military industrial enterprise called "Wanshan".

Among this series of cooperation agreements, the most eye-catching are the "Sino-British Technical Cooperation Framework Agreement" and the "Sino-British Joint Statement on Conducting Negotiations in Region X" to be signed in September, for which British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher personally visited China.

It is also unknown that it was the victory in the Falklands War that made Thatcher forget the pain. Still a little fluttering by the overwhelming reputation, after the British prime minister came to China, she showed her toughness to the fullest, as if she wanted China to clearly know that her title of "Iron Lady" was not for nothing.

Thatcher did so because she felt she had taken China's pulse, after all, after the Soviet Union's "Seven Hours of Nuclear War" exercises. Under pressure from its northern neighbors, the distance between China and the Western world will inevitably be narrowed again, and the United States is happy to see this happen. Thus completely easing restrictions on China and trying to fully integrate China into the Western world.

As for China, it also hopes to learn from the advanced technology and management experience of the West in the process and apply it to its own economic construction. As a result, many of the previously restrictive conditions have been relaxed. Margaret Thatcher saw precisely this in the implementation of the so-called "Taoguang and Obscurity" strategy, and tried to use the "Sino-British Technical Cooperation Framework Agreement" to bargain with China, thinking of exchanging technical and commercial interests for China's concessions on the X issue issue, and finally raising her image of safeguarding territorial sovereignty to a new level.

Margaret Thatcher was indeed a brilliant politician and a meticulous strategist, but even so, she underestimated the Chinese people's firm determination to safeguard territorial sovereignty and integrity. I didn't expect to meet a more tough and far-sighted strategist than her:

"China has no room for manoeuvre on this issue. Let's be frank. Sovereignty is not an issue that can be discussed. The time is ripe for a clear certainty: in 1997 China will take back Region X. ”

"To keep X prosperous, we want the UK's cooperation, but that doesn't mean that X must be under British jurisdiction to continue to thrive. The continued prosperity of Region X is fundamentally dependent on the implementation of policies suitable for Region X after China recovers Region X and is under China's jurisdiction. ”

"It also took into account the question that we were reluctant to consider, which was what if there was significant volatility in Region X during the 15-year transition period, when the Chinese government would be forced to think differently about when and how it would be recovered. If announcing that we are going to take back Region X is like Madame saying that it will have a catastrophic impact, then we must face this disaster bravely and make decisions. ”

"China, not Argentina!"

On 24 September, when Comrade Xiaoping met with Margaret Thatcher, he used his leisurely stroll posture to unreservedly display China's uncompromising and hardline attitude on sovereignty, and Comrade Xiaoping's remarks also made Margaret Thatcher instantly think of the nine battleships that the British army sank in the Falklands Naval Battle, the faintly sad elegy of the "Athletic God," and the sting of the C801 anti-ship missile, which was like a poisonous bee sting in the face.

It was only then that she fully understood that China was not so easy to mess with, and because of this, until the end of the talks, Mrs. Thatcher's mind was a little dazed, and her mind kept repeating Comrade Xiaoping's words, even when she walked out of the Great Hall of the People, she did not fully sober up, so she hurriedly walked down the steps, but then she stumbled, and when she came to her senses, there was a heart-piercing pain in both knees

"Sorry!Sorry!The heel of my heels is a little high, it's okay, it's okay"

Mrs. Thatcher explained awkwardly to the Chinese guards who came to help her, and then, despite her embarrassed appearance, stepped into the car with a black face and drove away (to be continued). )
