Chapter 125: Let It Be

When he received Liu Wei's call, Li Tingxuan was rushing to attend a high-level meeting. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Li Tingxuan was also taken aback by Liu Wei's bold proposal, because doing so seriously violated the mainland's basic Taiwan policy. Although there is no need to worry about Liu Wei paying for Taiwan's purchase of advanced weapons and equipment, the uproar over this matter will inevitably seriously damage the relations between the mainland and the United States.
What the result is, Li Tingxuan can't even imagine.
He didn't immediately agree because he didn't have the right to do so.
At this meeting, the impact of the alliance between Ben and India was discussed.
Before leaving the Military Intelligence Bureau, Li Tingxuan received a phone call from his Pakistani counterpart, and the Pakistani side is also paying close attention, hoping that the mainland can make a decision as soon as possible.
Pakistan's attitude is completely understandable, and with the alliance, India will be able to acquire a lot of advanced military technology.
Although it is not a major arms exporter, or even an arms exporter, because according to the pacifist constitution, it cannot export weapons to foreign countries, and even if the ammunition provided to the US military in those years was borrowed rather than sold, it does possess very advanced military technology and an extremely complete industrial system. Even if only a very limited benefit can be obtained, India's military strength will be enhanced.
For Pakistan, this is an intolerable outcome.
Imagine that if the Type 10 main battle tank appeared in the Indian Army's equipment sequence, the Pakistan Army's slight quality advantage built up by relying on the introduction of the "Khalid" main battle tank would be wiped out, and it would be forced to import the more expensive Type 99 main battle tank from the mainland. It will be difficult for Pakistan, which is already financially weak and spends only a few billion dollars a year on its military.
Such a problem is equally serious for the mainland.
If the cooperative relationship between India and India deepens and the two sides take strategic actions in turn, the mainland's living space and strategic pattern will become very grim, and it will even have to make concessions on the East China Sea and southern Tibet.
As long as this kind of strategic concession that is detrimental to the fundamental interests of the country begins, there will be no end to it.
At the meeting, Li Tingxuan, in his capacity as the head of the intelligence agency, emphatically expounded on the strategic impact of the alliance between China and India, especially the impact of territorial and territorial sea disputes.
This issue has also been repeatedly emphasized by Wang Xueming and other responsible persons of intelligence agencies.
The problem is that the head of the intelligence agency has only the right to make recommendations, not decision-making powers.
When it came to whether a response should be taken, most leaders at the policymaking level were adamantly opposed, arguing that fighting two neighbors at the same time would exacerbate regional instability and have unpredictable consequences. The leader in charge of interior affairs also stressed that the domestic economy is in the recovery phase and a stable external environment is of paramount importance, and that Prime Minister Moto's speech in New Delhi should not be overreacted.
In the end, the meeting failed to reach a consensus, and Xing Yuanzhao put his hope on the next high-level meeting as always.
Because he greeted Xing Yuanzhao's secretary in advance, after the meeting, Li Tingxuan went to the Führer's study. After a while, Xing Yuanzhao rushed over.
"As you can see, there are still many people who have illusions!"
"Führer, these are special times."
"It is precisely because this is a special time that special measures should be taken." Xing Yuanzhao controlled his temper and invited Li Tingxuan to sit down before saying, "I know, you have done your best, and you can't be blamed for these things." For more than 20 years, we have been living in a peaceful and stable environment, and many people have forgotten how we have achieved our current results. The international situation is quietly changing, if we can't seize the opportunity, not only will we be ashamed of our predecessors, but we will also have to leave the mess to our children and grandchildren, so that they can wipe our butts for us! ”
"In any case, there have been people who have been vigilant, at least at today's meeting......"
"Don't talk about that, has the matter arranged last time been settled?"
"It's still being deployed, and this kind of high-level intelligence operation must be fully prepared to be successful in order to be successful."
Xing Yuanzhao nodded and said, "I believe in your ability, and I also believe that you can surpass Wang Xueming." But I heard that the fighter plane that Sanbu got is also your masterpiece? ”
"Of course not, this was arranged by Minister Wang, and it has nothing to do with me."
"Impossible, Wang Xueming is really capable, but his subordinates ......" Xing Yuanzhao smiled, "Of course, this is your business with him, I don't ask." ”
"Führer, I have come to you for another matter."
"What's the matter?"
"Personally, I don't think there is anything to be afraid of, and there is no need for India to be afraid, because the real opponent is the United States on the other side of the Pacific Ocean."
"The common people know it."
"As the saying goes, shoot a man before a horse, and capture a thief before a king."
"What do you mean......" Xing Yuanzhao picked up a cigarette, which was a sign that he was starting to think about the problem.
"Militarily, it is difficult for us to defeat the United States, or even to catch up with and surpass the United States, but what supports the US military is by no means industrial production capacity. Fundamentally speaking, the US military has three pillars: first, a clear political system, second, advanced science and technology, and third, a sound financial system. ”
Xing Yuanzhao nodded and let Li Tingxuan continue.
"In terms of political system, I don't have much to say, this Führer knows better than me. In terms of science and technology, we are catching up with the United States at an accelerated pace, but when it comes to basic education, social culture, and so on, we are fighting for hard power, and even if we have potential, it will not be possible to go hand in hand with the United States until a few decades later. In the short term, the only way to weaken the United States' military power, and thus its international standing, is to attack the American financial system. ”
"Against those American conglomerates?"
"Of course not, the consortium is just a tool in the U.S. financial system, not a foundation."
Xing Yuanzhao frowned and said, "In this way, you have set your sights on a bigger target. ”
Li Tingxuan nodded and said with a smile: "If you can draw a salary from the bottom of the kettle, you can first crush the dollar and move the international financial center to the east." When the time comes, don't talk about us, the EU will take advantage of the danger. And Russia, as well as the ambitious Zoben, will fall into the ground. ”
"It's a great idea, but it's hard to realize."
"It's hard to return, but there's still a little hope."
"How?"
"Liu Wei."
Xing Yuanzhao's eyebrows jumped a few times, and he said, "This is what he proposed?" ”
Li Tingxuan was very honest and said: "He was the first to think of it, and he analyzed the feasible surnames. It's a lot of difficulty, but if you get it, the rewards are just as great. What's more, he didn't let us contribute, took all the heavy lifting alone, and didn't intend to ask for anything in return. ”
"This kid is quite national." Xing Yuanzhao smiled.
"I don't want to ask about these things, after all, the less we know, the better it will be to get out in the future."
Xing Yuanzhao nodded and said, "You did the right thing, even if Liu Wei is sure, we can't rule out accidents, if we really want to get into trouble, we can't have anything to do with it." ”
"The problem is, he's in trouble right now."
"What's the trouble?"
"Rogers had noticed him, so he thought the Skeletons were eyeing him."
Xing Yuanzhao was stunned for a moment and said, "He has done so many things, it's strange that he is not targeted by the Skeleton Party." ”
"So he wants us to be able to do a little bit of help, not to help exactly, but to give him some authority to do what he has to do."
"Minister Li, don't go around in circles, just say it."
Li Tingxuan smiled and said: "Being noticed by the Skull Party is not a bad thing, the point is that he must give a reasonable explanation for what he has done in the United States, that is, a convincing target." ”
"What did he do in the United States?"
Li Tingxuan explained roughly, and then said: "This is all in the service of the final purpose. ”
Xing Yuanzhao was not surprised, but he could see that he also felt that Liu Wei had gone too far.
After pondering for a while, Xing Yuanzhao spoke: "What does he want to do?" ”
"Use our inside line in Taiwan's Defense Security Bureau to cover for him."
"What do you mean?"
"The current big boss of Taiwan's National Defense and Security Bureau is one of our people, and he was also pulled by Liu Wei, and before that, he had provided a cover identity for Liu Wei's actions in Yueben. According to Liu Wei's meaning, in order to deal with the Skull Party, he must restore this identity. Although he did not use his previous name, he had to act as a spy of Taiwan's National Defense Security Agency to convince the Skull Party that he was not a threat to the United States. ”
"It's not that simple, is it? That's tens of billions of dollars! ”
Li Tingxuan smiled and said: "The only reasonable reason is that the Taiwan authorities want to buy arms from the United States, and they intend to use this money to pay for additional expenses beyond the normal price." ”
"Help Taiwan buy arms!?" Xing Yuanzhao's eyes immediately widened.
"Definitely not, but we have to borrow this name, and when the time is right, let us intervene to drag things out and buy him time."
"Can you guarantee that he will not use the money he earns to buy arms for the Taiwan authorities?"
"Absolutely, because all this money has to pass through my hands and then be used for the last action. If anything goes unusual, I can cut off his money flow in time. ”
Xing Yuanzhao sighed and said, "It's just that in this way, the Western Pacific will be lively." ”
"It's been lively enough now."
Xing Yuanzhao smiled bitterly and said: "Since the big boss of Taiwan's National Defense Security Bureau is your person, and Liu Wei is a young man with a very national spirit, I think it is feasible, but it is just ......."
"Führer, this must not be told to anyone."
Xing Yuanzhao nodded, indicating that he understood what Li Tingxuan meant.
"You don't have to give any instructions, you just pretend you don't know anything. After the incident, I will submit a report on the situation in the Taiwan Strait in a formal manner. ”
"You are responsible?"
"I don't have to take responsibility, because the Taiwan authorities are really seeking to acquire more advanced weapons and equipment, and the United States will certainly sell a large number of arms to Taiwan in the next few years. What we have to do is just go with the flow, and what Liu Wei did is only speed up the process. ”
Xing Yuanzhao pondered for a long time before nodding.
Seeing the approval of the head of state, Li Tingxuan didn't ramble anymore and got up to leave.
