Chapter 003, intrigues
Everyone knows what kind of treatment you will receive when you enter the United States as a member of the special forces, except, of course, commercial espionage and military espionage.
As for the headquarters of the CIA, not to mention, no spy would break into it to steal information, because this is no different from sending it to death, so a few people were surprised that Canglong was still alive.
Although they were a little unconvinced, after learning that Canglong had been to the United States and returned safely, the members of Team B decided to carry out this mission, although this was a situation where they had no choice, but at least they were sure of success, but Canglong did not tell them that they had met the SOG members in the United States.
If you say it, it is estimated that Bai Wuchang, a thin Russian man, would rather reward himself with a bullet than go to death with Canglong and them, because he knows very well that if he goes to the United States, it is good to be killed if the mission fails, but what he is most afraid of is that he is still alive, and it is not pleasant to fall into the hands of Americans, and no one wants to try the CIA's torture method specially designed for people like them.
And in the hands of the United States, even powerful spies will never die, and life is better than death is the future.
The next day, in the deep waters of the Pacific Ocean, in the area close to the US Midway base, a submarine was cautiously navigating through this seemingly calm sea area.
On the surface, the Pacific Ocean seems to be calm, but here it is a cruising area for submarines of various countries, Japanese, American, Russian, but mainly Chinese and American.
Since the beginning of China's submarine force, the Chinese Navy has been constantly trying to break through the coastal waters, although it is said that the Pacific Ocean is the open sea, but all countries have long divided the sphere of influence here, except for merchant ships, warships can only sail in their own areas, and if they want to enter the sphere of influence of other countries, they must be noted.
Obviously, the target of the ships on the water is too large, so they can only retreat in the coastal waters, but the submarine force can continue to go to sea and use the navies of the United States and Japan for experiments.
Everyone knows that the only thing that the Chinese Navy can really use is the submarine force, not only in size, but also in the elusiveness.
The guys, who are called water ghosts by the brethren of the special forces, are particularly adventurous, and they shuttle through various seas of the world, so Fan Xiaoxiao and a few people have so confidence in the submarine force, because they even dare to float in front of the US aircraft carrier formation and scare the US aircraft carriers.
An aircraft carrier formation, all equipped with a strong anti-submarine force, was broken through the anti-submarine net by a Chinese submarine and entered the attack range, what a terrible thing, if it was in a time of war, maybe this aircraft carrier would be sunk, and it was definitely worth exchanging a submarine for an aircraft carrier.
And before China's real aircraft carrier formation is formed, the strength of China's navy in the ocean is still under pressure in the face of the navies of two small countries, Japan and South Korea, and if it is not close to the roadbed, the power of the Chinese navy will be weakened to the extreme.
The scientist they rescued this time was equipped with the most critical technology of the US aircraft carrier, the nuclear reactor and engine.
These two technologies are the biggest difficulties of China's naval technical department, and the whole world knows that China's engine technology has always been a soft underbelly, and if China wants to build its own aircraft carrier, it must develop reliable engine technology, otherwise even if the aircraft carrier is built, the engine failure is also a huge problem, for example, in wartime, the aircraft carrier, as the main mobile combat platform of the navy, suddenly has a problem with the engine in the middle of the way, or simply sails at the same speed as a turtle climbing, and when the aircraft carrier arrives, it is estimated that the battle is over.
And if the speed of an aircraft carrier is too slow, it can only become a target at sea and be slaughtered by others, and if you want to be fast, you must have a good engine, but unfortunately China does not have such technology, and even the engines on aircraft and nuclear submarines are imitated from foreign countries.
But a huge maritime combat platform like an aircraft carrier is not as simple as directly copying the engine and enlarging it, otherwise most countries would be able to build an aircraft carrier.
And the aircraft carrier that China wants to build is not just conventionally powered, but a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier that can last for a long time, although the speed of the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier is not much different from that of a conventionally powered aircraft carrier, but the most important thing is that its endurance is almost completely out of a conventionally powered aircraft carrier.
A nuclear-powered aircraft carrier can quickly rush to any sea area in the world and put into combat without worrying about insufficient endurance, but conventionally powered aircraft carriers cannot do this, and must have global bases, but China is not the United States, and China does not have any overseas bases.
In addition to the United States, only France can build a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier in the world, but the French only have one nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, and it is also a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier that often breaks down.
As for Russia?
Russia's navy is weaker than China's now, because Russia does not have excellent access to the sea, and Vladivostok, the only naval base in East Asia, is frozen for half of the year, and in the Russian-Japanese war of 1904, the main fleet of the Russian Navy has long been disabled by the Japanese. The navy needs not only warships, but also the talents to operate them, and even if they want to build them, they need to invest a lot of money.
After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Russia was left with only one aircraft carrier that was about to retire, and there was a considerable number of submarines, and the hegemony of the former Soviet Union relied on his roadbed covering Asia and Europe, and the air force and army accounted for more than ninety percent of the factors, and the deterrence of the navy in the Soviet period was very low.
The endurance of a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier lies in the nuclear reactor in the aircraft carrier, so this scientist has these two key technologies, and China is naturally willing to get them at all costs, because the aircraft carrier is a symbol of a great power, and the emergence of an aircraft carrier can affect the regional balance.
Imagine if each of China's three major fleets had two aircraft carrier battle groups, and without considering the US factor, it would be possible to sweep through Japan and South Korea, and it would be estimated that it would be possible to do so in a day or two.
Although in peacetime, the greatest capability of aircraft carriers is not combat, but deterrence, but if China builds its own aircraft carriers and forms combat effectiveness, those small countries around it can only bow down to their subordinates, and this is the huge force of aircraft carriers, especially nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, in cooperation with the elusive submarine force, the Chinese Navy can really compete with the United States.
Even if they don't contend with it, at least they have the ability to protect themselves, and no small country dares to spread wild in front of China.
When Canglong and the others were traveling to the United States by submarine, Li Ruomo received a phone call in the office of the headquarters of the 15th Military Intelligence Bureau, which asked her to rush to Beijing immediately.
But Li Ruomo did not rush to Beijing in a hurry, but after processing the information he had at hand and confirming the specific location of Canglong and their current location, he arranged a private jet and went to Beijing.
The CIA's special vehicle picked up Li Ruomo, and when he entered the gate of the CIA, Li Ruomo was inspected, and he was also full of emotion in his heart, because the CIA's building still maintained the Soviet-style characteristics of the intimate stage of Soviet-Chinese relations in the 20th century, and the only building in Beijing that could retain this characteristic was the headquarters building of the CIA.
Although no one is worried about any terrorist attacks here, the soldiers in charge of the inspection are still serious and meticulous, even if Li Ruomo's identity is very special.
For Li Ruomo, who has worked here for a while, this has become so accustomed that she even feels that the CIA is like another "home" of hers, and before she became the director of the 15th Office, she would always sarcastically treat her home as a hotel and the CIA as a writer.
And Li Ruomo would always sarcastically say that his father regarded the State Council as a writer and his home as a hotel.
However, when she came back this time, she didn't have much affection, because there was a group of old men waiting for her inside, ready to question her about the process of this operation.
For Canglong, all they need to do is to complete the task, either fail, face the consequences of failure, or succeed, but there is no joy of success, but this is already the easiest, Li Ruomo once fantasized about becoming a female warrior and going to the battlefield like a man, because the pressure she faced in the rear was actually not small at all compared to Canglong and them.
The intrigue of various departments, the secret push of spies, and the pressure from the leadership are what she needs to face, and she can't act arbitrarily like Canglong.
Being more than two hours late made everyone in the CIA military intelligence conference room frown, and almost no one had a good face when she arrived.
Still as usual, Li Ruomo glanced at the people in the conference room, and then a smile appeared on her face, and she greeted everyone who was older than her: "Hello uncles." ”
Li Ruomo is still too young, and the young people sitting here can't help but relax their serious brows after hearing her uncle.
"Two hours late, Xiaomo, you are becoming less and less serious about the military intelligence meeting, I think I have to send you a political commissar over in a hurry." The person sitting in the front seat said with a kind face, although there was blame, it felt more like encouragement.
According to the order of seats, Li Ruomo's position is only ranked fifth, and the old man who sits in the front position is the head of all the intelligence departments, in order is Long Yunshan, director of the General Intelligence Bureau, He Jun, director of the Central Intelligence Department, followed by the director of the General Intelligence Bureau, and the first deputy director of the General Intelligence Bureau.
Li Ruomo walked straight to his seat and sat down, and then said with a smile: "Then uncle, you have to increase the funds for Xiaomo, my 15th Military Intelligence Bureau has just been established, but I am very short of money." ”
The leader on the main seat smiled helplessly, but did not delve into Li Ruomo's tardiness, among several major departments, only the newly established 15th Military Intelligence Bureau has special treatment, there is no political commissar, Li Ruomo is also the director of the Military Intelligence Bureau, the director of the office, and the political commissar, it can be said that he has the sole power, but Li Ruomo's department is also the smallest.
No one here is willing to sit in Li Ruomo's position, because the future is uncertain.
"Everyone is here, let's have a meeting now." The old man on the main seat suddenly put away the peace on his face and said with majesty, "The mission carried out by the 15th Military Intelligence Bureau this time is related to the future national defense construction, although when accepting the mission, I promised you that you can not ask about the details of the mission, but someone reported to me, the person you chose does not seem to be very reliable, Xiaomo, do you have anything to say?" ”
Li Ruomo sneered in her heart, knowing that she should have come, but she didn't expect to come so quickly, but she had already prepared her words, was silent for a while, and said with a smile: "Chief, I have full trust in the candidates for this mission, please rest assured." ”
"Prisoners and killers, can also give you so much confidence?" The first deputy director of the General Intelligence Agency suddenly questioned, "This is no child's play, none of your people can pass the political censorship." ”
The others didn't speak, but looked at Li Ruomo, being stared at by such a group of bigwigs, even Li Ruomo was under pressure, but she was not nervous, but shot back: "You don't have confidence in the people of the 15th Military Intelligence Bureau, so why didn't Director Jiang take over the task at the last military intelligence meeting and use someone you can trust to carry it out?" ”
