Chapter 807: Military Council
The content of the press conference held by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic focused the world's attention on East and Southeast Asia, especially these NATO countries. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoNATO countries led by the United States are always vigilant about the rise of the republic, and every time the republic has a new policy or a new move, it will always attract excessive interpretation by NATO countries. The words of the spokesman of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic made the US Government realize that the Republic may have come for real this time. In the past, the image of the republic was "weakness", yes, weakness. In order to rise in recent years, the republic has not known how much grievances it has suffered in the international community. This time, the Republic's attitude is unprecedentedly tough, but there are also some officials in the United States Government who believe that the Republic's move is nothing more than a bluff. Since the incident, which occurred on 21 August, the Government of the Republic has been under constant pressure from the citizens of the country. All of them, some U.S. officials believe that the Republic's move is an attempt to calm the rising domestic public opinion, and that the Republican government will not take action in the end. And U.S. officials who think this way still account for a large part of the U.S. government officials. Of course, while the U.S. government believes that the Republic's move is a bluff, it is not possible for them to do nothing. The U.S. intelligence services have ordered their intelligence officers embedded in the Republic to keep an eye on the movements of the Government of the Republic.
On the afternoon of the Republic's press conference, the U.S. government sent officials to meet secretly with senior Burmese leaders, and U.S. officials said they would continue to provide military and economic support to the Burmese side. The U.S. government's move formally pandered to the Burmese government, which believed that the Republic could not wage war against a few innocent dead and wounded citizens. After all, war is not a joke, war kills people, war burns money, and the government of the republic will not lose a big deal because of a small one. But they never thought that this time the republic was really not just talking, and the government of the republic was really ready to put it into action this time.
The Burmese government held secret talks with a number of ASEAN countries immediately after a secret meeting with US officials. The countries that can join ASEAN are basically countries that have territorial disputes and interests with the Republic, and these countries are always trying to teach the Republic a lesson and let the Republic government understand that they are not soft persimmons to be manipulated at will. In the secret talks, the Government of Myanmar was the first to make its position clear. The representative sent by the Burmese government said that they will never compromise with the government of the Republic of China, and that this time the Government of Myanmar will confront the Government of the Republic to the end. After receiving the support of the U.S. government, the Burmese government swelled up in an instant, and they thought that they had the support of the U.S. government, the world's largest power, and they didn't have to be afraid of the republic's government at all, so the Myanmar government's representatives in the talks were quite tough, as if the Burmese government thought that they were the world's most powerful country.
The words of the representative of the Burmese government have been supported by all the countries that have joined ASEAN, and in fact, these countries that have joined ASEAN have also received a slight reminder from the US government, and the US government will continue to support them in their confrontation with the government of the Republic. The ASEAN countries, which have been instructed by the US Government, are very supportive of the decision of the Government of Myanmar. Originally, these ASEAN countries believed that the establishment of ASEAN had given them the capital to confront the government of the Republic, and with the support of the US government behind them, this made them even more unscrupulous. Therefore, during the talks, the ASEAN countries believed that the government of the Republic would not dare to really start a war because of the accidental injury incident some time ago. Even if the government of the republic starts a war, they have the capital and strength to wrestle with the government of the republic.
A strategic alliance was formed in secret talks between ASEAN countries, and ASEAN countries were ready to confront the republic to the end. If the government of the Republic really starts a war against the Burmese government because of the accident some time ago, then the countries that have joined the ASEAN will fully support all the actions of the Burmese government. In the event of a real war, the countries that join ASEAN will work with the Burmese government. It can be said that this meeting has truly ensured the formation of a strategic alliance of these countries that have joined ASEAN, and this strategic alliance will advance and retreat together in the face of the government of the republic, because after all, these countries that have joined ASEAN and the government of the republic have considerable entanglements of interests. In addition to the surprise of the Burmese government, other countries also want to tear a piece of fat from the republic.
The government of the Republic of China was not idle during the secret talks between ASEAN countries, and the intelligence and analysis department believed that it was very likely that the Republic would not take any action this time because of its real war. Immediately after the press conference, the top leaders of the republic secretly convened a military meeting to discuss the possibility of war.
In the evening of the same day, the Government of the Republic secretly recalled the military commanders of the various military regions and the top heads of the four major departments to hold a secret military meeting in a secret conference room in Zhongnanhai, Beijing. Present at the secret military meeting were Su Changzheng (rank of general), head of the No. 1 of the Republic and first vice chairman of the Central Military Commission, Lu Yunwei, vice chairman of the Central Military Commission (with the rank of general), Hu Wei, vice chairman of the Central Military Commission (with the rank of general), Chu Tianxiong, chief of the General Staff Department (with the rank of general), Huo Jianming, chief of the General Political Department (with the rank of general), Qin Tianlong, chief of the General Logistics Department (with the rank of general), Li Hai (with the rank of general), Liu Wei, minister of national defense, and Zhu Biao (with the rank of general). Tu Yushan, commander of the Northwest Military Region (rank of general), Situ Changkong, commander of the Northeast Military Region, Li Aiguo, commander of the Southeast Military Region (rank of general), Zhou Weiguo, commander of the Beijing Military Region (rank of general), and Jiang Hao, commander of the First Group Army (rank of lieutenant general).
The people who participated in this secret military meeting can be said to be the most powerful bigwigs in the military circles, except for the No. 1 chief, who has no military rank and Jiang Hao who has the rank of lieutenant general, all of them have the rank of general. It can be said that it was the people who participated in this secret military meeting who decided the direction of the republican forces, as well as dominated the military forces. Jiang Hao was able to participate in this secret military meeting not only because of Jiang Hao's special status, the First Group Army is now a unit directly under the Central Military Commission, and it is already on an equal footing with various military regions in terms of status. It's just that the First Group Army is only at the level of a deputy military region, which is slightly lower than that of each military region. So I didn't feel surprised that Jiang Hao was able to participate in this secret meeting. This military meeting was held in secret, so basically except for the people who participated in this secret military meeting, outsiders basically did not know that such an important military meeting was going on in a conference room in Zhongnanhai, Beijing.
"This time we called everyone over to discuss how to deal with it next, the press conference in the afternoon must have been watched by everyone, the things announced at the press conference are the final decisions of several of us, this time our republic must show the strong voice of our great power. The republic has been silent for too long, so long that any country or organization wants to run to our republic to make a fortune, and this time our republic has decided not to be silent anymore, so this time our republic's attitude has become so tough. According to the analysis of the intelligence services, this time it is likely that a war will be triggered, and everyone is talking about how we should deal with the war that may occur next. "As soon as this secret military meeting began, Chief No. 1 dropped a bombshell, and Chief No. 1 shocked everyone attending the meeting. In fact, they also believe that although the Republic's attitude at the press conference is very tough, there will be no substantive action. I never thought that this time the republic would come for real.
"We should see how the Myanmar side reacts, and if the Myanmar side really insists on going its own way despite our warnings, then we still insist on teaching them some lessons. Now that several leaders have decided to go to war to seek justice for the innocent citizens who died and were wounded, I support it. Number One is right, we've been silent for too long, and it's time to show what we're capable of. Although the Myanmar side has the support of the U.S. government behind it, we are not afraid that the U.S. government will play tricks behind it. As soon as the No. 1 leader finished speaking, Su Changzheng spoke, as a soldier, no soldier doesn't want his country to be strong, so Su Changzheng is very supportive of the No. 1 chief.
"Well, there is no real large-scale war between countries at this stage. Although the Burmese government has the support of other ASEAN countries and the U.S. government, our military strength is now comparable to that of the U.S. government. And I don't think even if we do go to war with the Burmese government, the U.S. government will never get involved. Neither the U.S. government nor we are nuclear powers with nuclear weapons, and there is no possibility of war at all, so I don't think we have to worry about the U.S. government at all. Lu Yunhui's words expressed the general form of the international community at this stage, there is no possibility of war between military powers with nuclear weapons at all, after all, no country wants to be hit by the other's nuclear weapons. Even if the U.S. government has deployed a large number of fairly advanced anti-missile systems on its soil, it cannot guarantee that it will not miss a single nuclear missile, so neither the U.S. government nor the government of the republic wants a large-scale war between the two nuclear powers. Although the U.S. government has always been vigilant and sanctioning the republic, if the republic really puts on a posture of breaking the net, the U.S. government will not dare to really go to war with the republic, after all, it is a matter of life and death for millions or even tens of millions of people.
