War, for young people who grew up in peacetime, it was very far away. The pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info so far away that you can only see it in a book. Now, Admiral Xiao and the others suddenly said that the war was going on all the time, and Ye Chen was really a little hard to believe.

"Xiao Ye, you also know that our current media, whether it is the official or not, is saying that this is an era of peace. This is true not only of our Celestial Empire, but also of the United States, as well as of the major powers of the world. Admiral Xiao explained to Ye Chen, "Actually, peace is only relative. Whether one country is peaceful or hostile to another depends on the fundamentals. What are fundamentals? It is to see whether the cooperation between the two countries is greater than the hostility, or whether the hostility is greater than the cooperation. Cooperation over hostility is peace; If hostility is greater than cooperation, it may be war. ”

Peace is only relative, it depends on whether the cooperation between the two countries is greater than hostility, or hostility is greater than cooperation, this also makes sense, Ye Chen realized.

"I'll give you an example, let's talk about the Celestial Empire and the United States. At the beginning of our founding, relations between the two countries were extremely tense, and several times almost wars broke out. Admiral Xiao continued: "Since the easing of relations, there have been several well-known conflicts between us and the United States, but, on the whole, we and the United States are still more cooperative than hostile, so there is peace between us and the United States." ”

Ye Chen thought about it carefully, and this was indeed the case. There have been several well-known conflicts between the Celestial Empire and the United States, such as the embassy bombing, the Galaxy incident, and the plane collision incident. Despite these conflicts, there is no real antagonism between the two countries.

"Xiaoye, you say, why is this happening?" Admiral Xiao asked.

Ye Chen really hadn't thought about this question, where could he answer it.

"Xiao Ye, think about it. With your status and status, you will be exposed to these questions sooner or later, and this should be an exam question. Admiral Xiao said meaningfully.

Ye Chen is a world-renowned scientist and the winner of the highest national science and technology award, this status is very high, and the military did not hesitate to award him to the generals in order to let him join the military, which shows how heavy Ye Chen's weight is.

Therefore, Ye Chen will come into contact with areas that are impossible for ordinary people to come into contact with, and Admiral Xiao raised this question, which is equivalent to mentioning Ye Chen, he has a good intention.

Admiral Liu, Donald, and the others also looked at Ye Chen expectantly.

Ye Chen couldn't help but think about it, and Tang Lao and the others looked at Ye Chen and didn't speak.

After a while, a flash of spiritual light flashed, and Ye Chen instantly understood, and said, "I understand." In the final analysis, it is the interests of countries, and as for the friends and friendships, they are all lies. Benefits are real! Only interests can be eternal! Although the Celestial Empire and the United States have had several well-known conflicts, it is more advantageous for the two countries to cooperate. In our words, it is 'mutual benefit and win-win cooperation'. ”

Bang Bang Bang!

Admiral Xiao applauded them and appreciated them very much.

"Xiao Ye, your reaction is really fast enough, you thought of it so quickly. You are right, there are no friends or friendships between countries, this is just propaganda, and interests are real. If you have the same interests, you must be friends; Different interests are not necessarily enemies, it is possible that they are neither enemies nor friends, but passers-by; Interests are contrary to each other, and they are not necessarily enemies......" Admiral Xiao's words were interrupted by Ye Chen.

"Wait." Ye Chen hurriedly interrupted and said, "What the country pursues is the national interest, why is it not the enemy if the interests are contrary?" ”

What the country should pursue is national interests, not friendship, not friends. If the interests are conflicting, can it still be the enemy?

"Huh." Admiral Xiao smiled and said, "Xiao Ye, this problem depends on the size of the conflicting interests. National interests, because of their different importance to a country, can be divided into three, six, nine, and so on, and different levels of national interests can be handled differently. I'll give you an example, let's talk about the United States. The United States has a special group of political elites who are studying the national interests of the United States. They divide the national interests of the United States into several categories, and the core interests of the United States will not be discussed with others. The secondary benefits depend on how much benefit can be exchanged, and if the benefits are big enough, they can also be taken out and discussed. There are also benefits that are specifically designed for exchange. ”

Speaking of this, Admiral Xiao looked at Ye Chen and said, "Xiao Ye, do you understand?" ”

"I see. Wanwan, for example, is the core interest of our country. The big-mouthed president-elect of the United States has done a very bad thing, which has damaged our core interests, and we are already fighting back. Well, the current president of the United States understands that the bay is our core interest, and openly criticizes the big-mouthed president-elect and asks him to think through the consequences. Ye Chen also gave an example.

"That's right. If there is a conflict of interest between countries, it depends on what kind of conflict of interest it is, and if there is a conflict of core interests, it will inevitably be an enemy, and there is no room for discussion. If there is a less important conflict of interest, then negotiate and exchange. Donald took over and said: "There are too many such negotiations between countries, even during the Cold War, the United States and the Soviet Union also held negotiations many times because of this kind of thing. ”

Ye Chen nodded and said, "What does this have to do with what you said about the war going on all the time?" ”

"It's a result of competing interests. Even if two very good friends are very good, they may hurt their harmony because of competing interests, let alone between countries. The scope of national interests is too large, involving various aspects, some aspects may be cooperative, some aspects may be conflict, so there will be both cooperation and conflict between countries. What should I do when I encounter this kind of thing? Admiral Xiao explained to Ye Chen, "That is a secret fight, who can get greater benefits, it depends on their own ability, whoever is powerful, who can get greater benefits." This kind of fighting, except for a very few cases, will not be exposed. ”

Admiral Liu took over the conversation and said: "Our country's submarines are often surrounded by foreign ships and have caused considerable losses. In the same way, our country's submarines have also caused the United States to almost destroy nuclear submarines......"

"Chief, can you be specific?" As a military fan, he was very interested in this kind of thing, and Ye Chen's spirits lifted.

"The submarine of our country and the nuclear submarine of the United States, when they met in the ocean, went into pursuit. The submarines of our country took the lead in occupying advantageous positions and locked on the American nuclear submarine with torpedoes, and the American nuclear submarine panicked and turned around and ran. There were quite a few reefs there, and the US nuclear submarine crashed into the reef in a panic, suffered heavy damage, and almost could not return to its home port. Admiral Liu said with a smile.

"Wouldn't it? Why don't you announce such a good thing? Ye Chen was very sorry.

Such a big piece of good news, if it is announced, will definitely boost morale.

"Xiao Ye, this kind of thing will not be announced, because this is a secret fight. If this is made public, it may escalate the situation and even trigger a confrontation between the Celestial Empire and the United States. Donald explained with a smile and said, "Look at the United States, it has suffered such a big loss, and the nuclear submarine was almost destroyed, and it is not silent." The United States has suffered a big loss, and it will not be announced, we have taken advantage of it, and it is just a matter of stealing fun, and we can use it to make a fuss that the whole world knows? ”

Thinking about it, it makes sense, Ye Chen concluded: "This is to make a fortune in a muffled voice!" ”

Tang Lao and the others nodded, but did not speak, and they agreed with Ye Chen's conclusion.

"This is a secret fight, but what about the open fight?" Ye Chen learned a lot of secrets, and when he was interested, he decided to pick it up again.

"You are a military fan, and you should know a lot about the struggle between the United States and our country. These things are Mingdou. Some were accidentally exposed, and some needed to be more advantageous. Admiral Xiao said.

"The plane collision incident is a clear fight. The United States has been accusing our country of setting a trap for American planes to enter our country's airspace and have to make a forced landing on our island. There are also rumors that our country took this opportunity to dismantle American planes and crack American technology, is it true or fake? Ye Chen suddenly remembered the famous plane collision incident.

The plane collision incident is very famous and has had a far-reaching impact on the United States and the Celestial Empire. At that time, the newly appointed president of the United States was full of cowboy style and vigorously opposed the Celestial Empire, and the plane collision incident made him realize that the Celestial Empire was not a soft puppet, and he had to change his course at the mercy of the United States.

"Americans have always been self-righteous and self-righteous. If the US plane does not invade our country's airspace, even if it collides, it will not make a forced landing on our island. We take advantage of the reason, and no matter where we go, we are winners. "Donald is categorical.

This is very reasonable, because the US plane does not approach the territorial airspace of our country, and if something happens, it will fall into the sea, so how can it make a forced landing on the island of our country.

This shows that the United States is very unreasonable. The United States is like this, it always likes to make excuses for its own outrageous and unreasonable behavior.

"As for the thing you said about dismantling American planes and cracking American technology, we have never admitted it." Admiral Xiao glanced at each other and smiled like an old fox.

There must be a conspiracy, with Ye Chen's understanding of them, they are all shrewd people, how can they do loss-making transactions.

"Xiao Ye, what would you do if it were you?" Donald also laughed like a fox.

"This can be said to be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, if you don't do a lot of work, you can't live up to yourself. We took the lead, and it would be too cowardly if we didn't do a lot of work. If it were me, I would not only do it, but I would also have to disassemble American planes into parts. If we don't have enough time, let the Ministry of Foreign Affairs fight with the United States to buy us time. Ye Chen thought about it and smiled very much.

Admiral Xiao nodded appreciatively.

"The people paid for it and raised a group of people like us, if they didn't even have the guts, they would be too sorry for the taxes paid by the people." Admiral Xiao said.

He changed his words and said, "Xiao Ye, this is just your guess, I didn't say anything." ”

"yes, you didn't say anything, you just gave me enough hints." Ye Chen said with a smile.

"Xiao Ye, don't talk nonsense, how could we do such a thing?" Admiral Xiao Lai Pi said.

"Xiao Ye, do you know the importance of your technology to us now?" Admiral Liu said busily. (To be continued.) )
