"What's the matter? In your eyes. It shouldn't be a big deal, right? Ouyang Xiaowei asked in some surprise.

"Naturally, there is nothing big about business, and this time there is a violent collision between China and the United States!" Fan replied.

"What?" Ouyang Xiaowei didn't understand for a while, and was stunned for a moment.

Fan Wuxi stood up, put his clothes on his arms, then pulled Ouyang Xiaowei up, threw down the money to pay the bill, and then the two of them walked out while explaining to Ouyang Xiaowei, "The US reconnaissance plane violated China's volley and collided with the Chinese fighter plane that was monitoring the air—"

"Huh!?" Ouyang Xiaowei was indeed taken aback by this news.

Probably, since the bombing of the embassy last year, the relationship between China and the United States has been relatively bad, although both sides have maintained a relatively restrained attitude, but at this time, what kind of consequences will be caused by another collision? It's really impossible to tell.

Fan Wuxian and Ouyang Xiaowei quickly rushed to the Ministry of National Defense, and after coming over, they found that this side was heavily guarded, and after the two people were checked, Ouyang Xiaowei was allowed to stay in the reception room, and only Fan Wuxian entered the conference room of the chiefs.

At this time, the atmosphere in the conference room was also relatively tense. Through the images sent by satellite, we can clearly see the US reconnaissance plane that has landed at the Lingshui military airfield in Hainan.

Seeing Fan Wuxian coming, an operational staff officer briefed him on some of the things that had just happened.

In the morning, a US EP-3 military reconnaissance plane flew over the southeastern waters of China's Hainan Island. Two Jian-8 fighters of the Chinese Air Force immediately took off to track and monitor them.

At 9:07 a.m., just as our military plane was flying normally 104 kilometers southeast of Hainan Island, the US reconnaissance plane violated flight rules, suddenly turned at a large angle, and collided with a Chinese military plane, causing the plane to lose control and crash into the sea, and the pilot to go missing. The damaged US plane entered China's airspace without permission and landed at the Lingshui military airfield in Hainan.

The J-8II aircraft that participated in the battle was a dual-mission fighter developed and produced by the Shenyang Aircraft Research Institute and China's Shenfei Industry Group on the basis of the J-8, which was mainly used for territorial air defense, interception, seizing air supremacy, maintaining air superiority, and ground attack.

On the basis of the J-8, part of the fuselage was redesigned, air intake on both sides was adopted, the space for the installation of avionics was increased, and the fire control system, weapon system, on-board electronics and power system were improved, and the more powerful P-13A engine was replaced, so that the aircraft has a good low-altitude combat capability and all-weather interception and attack capabilities, the main on-board equipment instrument landing system, radio compass, radar altimeter, autopilot, etc.

The armament includes a 23 mm double-barreled cannon, which can be attached to infrared air-to-air missiles, medium-range semi-active radar-guided air-to-air missiles, as well as rockets and bombs, and the maximum level flight speed can reach Mach 2.2.

However, Fan Wuxi also felt a little surprised, how could he call himself to come over for this kind of thing?

I'm wondering. The Minister of Defense, who rushed over, began to speak, "This is a conscious collision incident by the Americans!" It happened suddenly, what do you think? ”

"The pilot who jumped should be immediately searched and rescued, and the damaged American reconnaissance plane and crew should be brought under control at the same time!" Someone immediately suggested.

"Will it cause opposition from the Americans and go off the rails? Should we use the special line of the head of state to get in touch and then determine how to deal with it? This is the opinion of the more moderate military forces.

After listening to the brief introduction, Fan Wuxian immediately realized that this was a major and sensitive emergency. It is said to be important and sensitive because this is the first direct friction between the Chinese and US militaries in the new international situation after the Cold War, and it has caused serious consequences such as aircraft damage and missing personnel.

In particular, this incident also involves major issues of principle such as national sovereignty, territorial integrity, and national dignity, which are very complex and will not be easy to properly handle.

It may seem like an accident, but in fact it is inevitable.

Since the founding of New China, the United States has never interrupted its reconnaissance flights over China's coastal areas, and since the second half of last year, US planes have carried out reconnaissance activities more frequently and have become closer and closer to our territorial waters. They demanded that such reconnaissance activities be stopped, but they ignored them and continued to go their own way.

This time, it was finally a head-on collision.

During the Clinton administration, Sino-US relations finally entered an upward stage after several contests between the two sides, so the domestic government also hoped that after Bush Jr. took office as US president, Sino-US relations would also develop relatively well, because his father had a deep understanding of China and he himself had been to China.

However, as soon as Bush Jr. took office, he began to readjust the foreign policy of the Clinton administration, and his China policy also showed a hard-line tendency. During the televised debate on the election just a few months ago, Bush openly claimed that he wanted to redefine US-China relations, stressing that the US-China relationship should not be a strategic partnership, but a relationship of strategic competition.

From a diplomatic point of view, the meaning of strategic competition is completely different from that of strategic partners, and the former even has a certain flavor of antagonism. Bush's remarks mean that the United States sees China more as a competitor than a partner. If this kind of argument eventually becomes the US Government's China policy, it will have an adverse impact on Sino-US relations.

Internationally, China-US relations are a pair of very important bilateral relations, both for China and the United States, and for the whole world. Therefore, the domestic government has been in communication with the new US administration to urge Bush Jr. and his new team to have a correct understanding of Sino-US relations and formulate a positive and pragmatic China policy, so as to facilitate the healthy and stable development of bilateral relations.

At the end of last year, George W. Bush was elected the 43rd president of the United States.

That day. Chief No. 1 sent him a congratulatory telegram as usual.

In February this year, shortly after President George W. Bush took office, he wrote a letter to Chief No. 1, in which he expressed his willingness to strengthen dialogue and cooperation with China and handle differences in a respectful and frank manner.

Chief No. 1 immediately replied to the letter to congratulate Bush Jr. on his assumption of the presidency of the United States, appreciated his positive attitude toward the development of bilateral relations in his letter, and looked forward to making joint efforts with him to promote the healthy, stable, and sustained development of Sino-US relations in the new century.

At the end of March, Vice Premier Qian was invited to visit the United States and had direct contacts with the top level of the new US administration; President George W. Bush met with Vice Premier Qian and personally said that the United States attaches great importance to US-China relations, saying that he is looking forward to attending the APEC Economic Leaders' Informal Meeting in Shanghai in October and officially visiting China.

Vice Premier Qian's visit has yielded positive results, and the atmosphere in Sino-US relations has eased somewhat.

Against this background, the plane collision incident has come suddenly, and it seems that Sino-US relations are about to undergo another severe test.

There were not many people in the conference room, all of them were senior generals, and the Minister of Defense glanced at Fan Wuxian and said, "Everyone's opinions are not unanimous!" The old chief said on his deathbed that Fan always has a view of the overall situation and a broad vision. Do you have any good suggestions? ”

At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Fan Wuxi's body.

Fan Wuxian scratched his head a little, this kind of thing made him come forward, it was really a little difficult, the most important thing is not anything else, but his own industry in the United States is too much, in case he provokes Bush Jr., there is no benefit at all, but as a Chinese, he can't do other calculations at this moment.

So Fan Wuxian nodded, and he was not welcome. "Let's not talk about saving people, the top priority is to occupy the commanding heights in public opinion and make this matter public! Secondly, it is necessary to organize forces, assault the plane, control the crew, and sort out the important parts and materials of the plane as soon as possible, since the plane has already collided, we have no choice, and now that the other party has fallen on our ground, naturally we cannot easily let them go, in addition to treating the crew members humanely, immediately mobilize experts to study the plane The most important thing is to do so. ”

Seeing that some people still don't think so, Fan Wuxian emphasized, "Americans are the best at playing with public opinion, even if we don't announce this news, we are worried that it will affect the mood of the people, and it is not easy to control, and the other party will also make a big splash in the media and the Internet, so whoever seizes the opportunity will take the initiative, and whoever will be able to speak in the future negotiations!" As for the advanced equipment on board, when the other party finds out that we have signs of snatching control of the plane, they will definitely do everything possible to sabotage it, so the assault must act quickly so that they don't have time to sabotage! At the same time, it is necessary to record footage of the life of the crew and send it out through various channels, so that the Americans are speechless in front of world public opinion! ”

After Fan Wuxi's words were finished, he won the approval of most of the generals, and the Minister of Defense also attached great importance to Fan Wuxi's opinion, and after talking to the No. 1 chief on the phone, he said, "The chief basically agreed to deal with it according to Mr. Fan's words, and first assault on the plane to control the other party's crew!" ”

The next thing has nothing to do with Fan Wuxi, and the people who should do the work have gone to arrange work. Fan Wuxi looked at the left and right and saw that there was nothing to do with himself, so he said hello to the staff officer on duty, and then went back to find Ouyang Xiaowei, and the two of them left together.

It wasn't until the afternoon that he received an urgent call from Boss Zhu, calling him to come over and study countermeasures together.

"It's always hard for me to get too involved in this, right?" After Fan Wuxian answered the phone, he hesitated a little.

There are no pop-ups
