Chapter 382: Is There a Third Option?
Now with these CNC machine tool processing equipment and two sets of high-speed and low-speed wind tunnels that belong to the world, it not only paves the way for testing the aerodynamic performance of the car in the future, but also lays a better foundation for its future development. Wind Tunnel! This is an indispensable bump in the development of the aviation industry, especially in the large high-speed wind tunnel!
Zhang Lanmei thought to herself: she will slowly pour these treasures into the country like ants moving, and she will not be discovered by the Americans or government departments. Well, it seems that the construction of a highly confidential high-level laboratory is also imminent! In order to install these good things, as for the establishment of this laboratory, it will be established in the name of industrial needs.
It's just that the researchers inside have to be selected with great care, in case a government department or a foreign company sends a few agents or commercial spies, wouldn't all their efforts make wedding clothes for others? may even expose the relationship between the Alice Group and the mysterious organization that kidnapped the Americans, and then the Alice Group will become a rat crossing the street, such a bleak scene, Zhang Lan doesn't like to see it!
Well, before that, these things need to be moved into this secret base, and then installed and debugged, as for the software on these devices, although the software made by the Americans is already very good, but it is better to let Xiao Chenxi and Alice improve it, why don't we use it if there is a better one?
With the efforts of dozens of Xiao Chenxi and their clansmen, all the things extorted from the Yankees were finally sent to the secret base buried deep underground before dawn, and now Singh stole the good things that a group of experts from Lao Maozi had played. As for the four planes, they have long been covered with desert camouflage nets, and even the most advanced reconnaissance satellites cannot detect them. Well, Zhang Lan thought that even if he used this place as a secret research base for himself, it would be good enough, safe and concealed.
Zhang Lan even pondered whether Alice Group should learn from Wal-Mart, in order to facilitate the company's management and communication between local branches. To prevent the signs of each sales branch from occupying the mountain as the king, do you also make a satellite to send to the sky for your own company?
Well, Zhang Lan suddenly felt that this idea was very good, and after the development of his company in the future. It is necessary to have its own independent contact information, and it is too unsafe to transmit all kinds of confidential information through ordinary civilian lines. If it's inconvenient at home, you can ask Alice to get one from the United States and send it up.
It's just a pity that I don't have the ability to make satellites now, otherwise it would be a good choice to let Brother Tian directly hold it and send it to the sky. Not only will it not be discovered, but it can also save a lot of satellite launch costs.
Poor Clinton and Leslie. Aspin hasn't slept yet, although these lawless guys have taken away the money and goods, and they don't even know if the four strategic transport planes can be returned, but now the three warships are still parked in the Arabian Sea, and the two of them are very worried, what if this gang of lawless bastards doesn't return it? Although they seemed to be more trustworthy before, but talking about credibility with such a guy? That's a fool's business!
Well, it is not once or twice that the United States has done such untrustworthy things, and these two dirty guys are inevitably a little self-conscious -- usually people with dirty hearts will think that others are just as dirty as themselves. If you do too many things that you usually feel sorry for, you will inevitably think that others are just like you.
At dawn, news came from all radar stations and satellite testing centers: all radars and satellites have returned to normal, everyone carefully checked them, and found no fault in the radar and satellites, whether it is software or hardware, and nothing abnormal has been found, as if it was suddenly broken and suddenly improved, so that you can't figure it out at all.
For the sake of pretense, the Ministry of Defense has already ordered. At present, a group of experts is being organized to conduct an in-depth investigation into the cause of this satellite and radar malfunction in order to avoid the same accident next time: The occurrence of such an accident will be a serious disaster for the US ** team.
What else do you need to look up! Clinton looked at Leslie. As-Ping looked at each other and smiled bitterly: the failure of satellites and radars? There's nothing wrong with it, it's just a bunch of guys who came out of nowhere. Now I guess the guys have everything in place. That's why they let go of their control over their satellites and radars.
At this moment, someone began to report to the two: "Satellite data shows that the attack nuclear submarine among the three warships is leaving the sea area where they are and turning around and heading in the direction of the Fifth Fleet's station!" ”
So they really plan to return it? Clinton and Leslie. Aspine perked up and hurried a few steps to the reconnaissance satellite display screen: sure enough. According to the trajectory of the submarine shown by the satellite, it is indeed heading in the direction of the Manama Naval Base in Bahrain, where the Fifth Fleet is stationed, but the nuclear submarine is sailing in a floating posture and sailing at the Manama Base in Bahrain.
"Get in touch with each other right away!" Clinton commanded with some excitement.
Needless to say, someone had already debugged the intercom equipment and connected to Cage's phone on the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier "Roosevelt" that had just been brought back by Brother Tian from that secret base.
"Sir," Clinton used a rare honorific, "why is it that instead of three warships, only one nuclear submarine has returned?" ”
"Well," Cage's voice still sounded so gentle, like an old friend talking to each other, "that's easy, because we still have some things to talk about." ”
"Something you haven't talked about?" Not only President Clinton was stunned, but even Leslie. Minister Aspin was also stunned: What else has not been discussed?
"Have you forgotten, Mr. President," Cage chuckled, "we talked about the redemption of these three warships and all the weapons and ammunition on them, and nothing else." ”
"yes," Leslie. Aspin was stunned, the phone was now in a hands-free state, and Mr. Defense Minister couldn't help but ask, "Is there anything wrong with this?" ”
"There's nothing wrong with that," Cage said, with a faint banter in his voice, "but you seem to have forgotten that we are only talking about these and the three warships and all the weapons and equipment and ammunition on them, and not about the handling of the more than 1,500 naval officers and men on these three warships?" ”
Pig! What a pig! Hearing Cage's words, not only Leslie. Aspin, even Clinton slapped his head, and his force was so hard and powerful that the people around him were very worried, would these two biggest bigwigs in the United States shoot themselves into concussions?
Think about it carefully: it seems that there is really no talk about the handling of these more than 1,500 naval officers and men? President Clinton and Leslie. Minister Aspin began to recall every detail of his negotiations with Cage, and finally determined one thing, he and others, even including the guys in Congress, ignored this issue, and everyone subconsciously thought that the price they paid included everything searched on the three warships, and naturally included the price of redeeming all the officers and sailors on it, but they didn't expect that Cage would talk about this matter at this time!
What a fucking damn one! After such a long negotiation, Clinton and Leslie. Aspin knew a little about his opponent, and instead of negotiating with him endlessly, it was better to ask him directly how he wanted to come here! Anyway, no matter what conditions they put forward, the final result is that they still have to do what they say.
"This, in fact, is very simple, as the price of our evacuation, we plan to take away a few planes on your aircraft carrier, even if it is the ransom you paid for these personnel on the ship, what do you think of this proposal?" Cage was kind enough to talk to the two guys.
What if you don't agree? The two looked at each other helplessly: Now that the plane is in your hands, even if you don't say a word and fly away, what else can we do with you? With your skills, as long as you fly the plane away, we won't be able to track it even if we want to, right?
"No problem," both of them saw helplessness in each other's eyes, "It's just that we want to know, sir, which planes do you want to drive away?" ”
"An E-2C early warning plane, so that all of us can fly away," Cage said, "if you are reluctant to take this early warning plane, then there is no problem, or we each take away a fighter, don't worry about us, it is not difficult for us to fly these planes." ”
To be honest, even these two things are the heart and soul of the US Navy, and no matter which one is lost, it can make the US Navy vomit blood in distress. Whether it is an E-2C "Hawkeye" airborne early warning plane or letting them choose those dozens of fighters -- if they are allowed to fly fighters, it is estimated that there will be only a few of the 56 fighters on board the "Roosevelt" aircraft carrier! -- The US Navy will once again lose billions of dollars worth of equipment, not counting the potential risk that these fighter jets or AWACS planes may spread to countries that are unfriendly to the United States.
"Is there a third option?" Clinton and Leslie. Aspin felt a little dry mouth, and his eyes were a little black, Cage's two plans were not acceptable to him, he and the Congress were busy for a long time, and they were paying for ransom and research equipment, for what, wasn't it just that they were worried that their technology would spread outward without their control! If you follow what these guys say, what's the point of everything you've done before?
