Chapter 501 Tough Televised Speech
Penglai TV is the youngest provincial TV station in China, but it is developing very fast with its backing on Penglai Island. Penglai TV Station, which is not bad for money www.biquge.info often only pursues high-quality products, and the budget is very loose, so the quality of the program is very high, and it quickly won a reputation.
Moreover, Penglai TV is also a partner of the global film and television giant Tianxin Pictures, with the support of Lu Yang, Penglai TV has opened several international channels, which alone is much ahead of those provincial TV stations in the mainland.
After the Yuanwang incident, Penglai TV carried out a concentrated report. Although this incident did not happen on Penglai Island, it involved ships on Penglai Island, so it attracted a lot of attention.
The major channels of Penglai TV were broadcasting programs, and suddenly the TV screen turned, and Lu Yang appeared. On the TV screen, Lu Yang stood in front of the podium in a tunic suit, with the national flag and military flag behind him.
"How?"
"Is something going on?"
"Lu Yang, is this going to make a TV speech?"
People who watched Penglai TV found that all the channels under Penglai TV were pictures of Lu Yang's speech.
Lu Yang in front of the camera looked solemn, although there was no expression, people could still see anger on his face.
"Friends in front of the TV, don't mean to interrupt you, I'm Lu Yang!" Lu Yang's calm voice sounded.
At this time, no one changed the channel because the program was interrupted, and no one was dissatisfied, on the contrary, many people who got the news switched to Penglai TV, after all, Lu Yang's TV speech is not common. Not to mention TV speeches, it has not been easy for the public to see Lu Yang over the years, what interviews and the like, Lu Yang has long stopped doing it, and he has at most appeared at some meetings.
"Two hours ago, the cargo ship Yuanwang, registered on Penglai Island, was hijacked by pirates in the waters east of Somalia, and more than 200 Chinese on board fell into the hands of pirates. These pirates belong to the Somali United Front, and they have demanded a ransom of $200 million from me as a hostage! ”
Lu Yang said slowly, and after listening to him, most people knew what was going on. Because the time of the Far Hope was so short, apart from those well-informed reporters, not many members of the public knew about the incident.
After getting the news, Penglai Island immediately organized a rescue force, and the mecha team belonging to the Huaxia Pacific Theater took action to rescue the hostages from the pirates half an hour ago. It's just that before the rescue, two crew members of the Yuanwang had already died for resisting the pirates, and in the video released by the pirates, we can see their corpses! ”
The audience in front of the TV held their breath and listened to Lu Yang's next words. In China, many viewers have already developed feelings of hatred and hatred when they hear this, but for viewers in other countries, the Yuanwang incident is not as worthy of attention as Lu Yang's TV speech.
"I won't say much about the details of the rescue, the hijacked Yuanwang is returning to Penglai Island under the protection of the Huaxia escort fleet at this time, please wait with peace of mind. What I want to say is that this matter is not over yet, and no one can be safe and sound after provoking Huaxia and killing Huaxia! ”
Lu Yang clenched his fists and said extremely powerfully: "This matter, Penglai Island will investigate to the end and never let go of any murderer!" In addition, on behalf of Penglai Island, I declare the Somali United Front organization a terrorist organization and launch an armed attack against it in the near future. ”
Lu Yang's speech was very short, less than three minutes, but this short speech was like a boulder falling into a lake, waving layers of waves.
"The televised speech turned out to be a declaration of war!"
"Lu Yang's high-profile crackdown on Somali pirates!"
"Lu Yang's hegemonism: is it full of confidence, or is it self-defeating?"
"Crowded Somalia is about to welcome the Penglai Island Navy!"
"Huaxia's ambition to enter the Indian Ocean was exposed, and it used Penglai Island to throw stones to ask for directions!"
"Is it war or anti-terrorism?"
This is the first time Lu Yang has made such a tough speech, he was also tough on foreign countries before, but he rarely said it on the surface, this time it was different. His high-profile declaration has aroused many speculations from the outside world, and many heads of government, including high-level officials in China, have contacted him to find out Lu Yang's plans.
Feng Hai, his men and the hijacked crew members returned to Penglai Island on a special plane sent by Lu Yang, the first batch of Kunpeng large passenger planes manufactured by Penglai Aerospace Company. The aircraft has a 50% higher payload capacity than the A380, making it a breeze to bring back 300 people. That night, the plane landed at Penglai Airport, and the crew members who survived the disaster met with their families.
"Boss, do you really want to declare war on Somalia?" Feng Hai didn't have time to rest, so he hurried to Lu Yang's house.
"Not a declaration of war on Somalia, just a fight against pirates and terrorist groups." Lu Yang Road.
Feng Haidao: "I have learned that the Somali United Front is an integral part of the current Somali coalition government, and the Somali government will not agree to us doing anything to them. ”
"It's their business if they disagree, we just need to do our own thing." Lu Yang is not worried at all, let alone facing the Somali government, even if Fusang dares to do this, Lu Yang will make it pay a hundred times the price.
"But does the country agree?" Feng Hai obviously thought a lot.
"We will do this ourselves, and we will not object to it in China." Lu Yang said, "Tomorrow you take four Guardian-class destroyers to the Arabian Sea, and the target is Hobbio, the opponent's nest. Also, bring the first mech squad. This time, I will not only eliminate the Somali United Front, but also arrest their leadership! ”
The mecha team on Penglai Island has only 21 mechas, divided into two squads, and one squad is 10 war tiger mechas.
"What if the United States or other countries stop it?" Feng Hai worried, "The four Guardian-class destroyers are certainly powerful, but this time they are fighting from 10,000 kilometers away, and energy and supply are all problems. In case something happens, we may not be strong enough ......"
"I'll get the Air Force to cooperate with you." Lu Yang said.
"Air Force?" Feng Hai was surprised, this was the first time he had heard of it.
"Space Force, to be exact." Lu Yang explained, "After the establishment of the International Space Agency, we secretly produced a number of small aerospace aircraft, which will be used as the armed forces of the International Space Agency in the future. Because of the relationship of time, only two aircraft have been assembled now, however, the news of the Space Force has not been announced to the public, and the aircraft has not been delivered, so these two aircraft still belong to Penglai Island. ”
"Small space planes?" Feng Hai was secretly delighted, although Lu Yang said that there were only two, Feng Hai would never doubt their combat effectiveness. This is an aerospace aircraft, a high-tech aircraft capable of flying out of the atmosphere, which is not at all comparable to existing fighter jets.
The first batch of small aerospace planes produced by Penglai Aerospace Company was named Haidongqing by Lu Yang, although it is small, but Haidongqing's size is not small, and the Columbia space shuttle of the United States, but its wingspan is much larger. As a space fighter, Hai Dongqing is very powerful and has the ability to fight globally, and it uses expensive heavy fuel, which can fly around the earth three times at a time.
"Hayden, your plan has failed again, haven't you?" At the White House, Hillani watched Lu Yang's televised speech and said to Hayden in an unkind tone.
Hayden is extremely embarrassed, this operation is his mastery, and the whole process is also controlled by him, according to Hayden's estimate, with Lu Yang's character, there are more than 200 Chinese hostages in hand, and Penglai Island will definitely compromise in the end.
However, no one expected Lu Yang's reaction to be so quick and save those hostages in this way.
"President, I think we all underestimated the mech team on Penglai Island. Their ability to run 10,000 kilometers to decapitate and rescue is terrifying......," said Secretary of State Kleber, who is also a participant in the plan, "If Huaxia is equipped with this kind of mecha on a large scale, who else in this world will be their opponents?" ”
Hirani grimaced: "It's been almost two years since we researched our mecha, and there is still no progress!" ”
"President, the investment in mecha research will increase, and only by creating a mecha belonging to our country as soon as possible can we have the strength to maintain world peace!" "I think we should expand the scale of the mecha project to involve more technology companies in China. Our country's science and technology is the strongest in the world, and I believe that it will soon be fruitful! ”
"In addition, we also need to speed up the penetration of Penglai Island, especially Penglai Group and Penglai Mecha Research Institute, Penglai Aerospace University. I heard that Luyang is also preparing to set up the Penglai Academy of Sciences, and these institutions should be the focus of our attention. Kleber added.
Hirani nodded, "You're right. ”
"The three banks in the west are willing to give loans to the mecha research project, and their conditions are very good, I think the president can consider it, because with the appropriation of Congress alone, our mecha will never be able to catch up with the Huaxia people. As for the information on Penglai Island, I have to ask Director Hayden to bother more. Kleber looked unselfish, in fact, he had secretly accepted favors from the western bankers, which is why he said this.
"Hayden, I want you to mobilize all your forces to collect the technology of Penglai Island, and I hope that the next time we meet, you can bring me good news. Also, you have to take care of this matter this time and leave no traces! Hilani said impatiently, "My patience with you is limited, you see! ”
"Yes!" Hayden broke out in a cold sweat, he knew that if this was the case next time, his position as director would not be saved.
"President, our satellites have just discovered that the four Guardian-class destroyers on Penglai Island have left Wangxiang Port and are heading west, and the Pentagon analyzes that their target is Somalia!" (To be continued.) )
