Chapter 401: A Great Power Heavy Weapon

"The seven military regions of the Celestial Empire just mentioned are only the Marine Forces, not including the Navy and the X Artillery Unit, which is independent of the Navy, the Army and the Air Force." Mr. Chen said with a smile.

"X artillery unit?" Huo Xiaotian couldn't help but feel shocked when he heard the name of this unit, this is a force known as the Sword of the Celestial Empire, and it has the terrifying strength to destroy the world.

"The X artillery unit is the core strategic nuclear deterrent force of our Celestial Empire, which directly belongs to the central government and is not under the command of any military region, and it is also one of the few units in the whole army that is in a state of full readiness 24 hours a day. Mr. Chen said with feeling.

Chen Lao is always born in the forties of the last world, he has a personal experience that ordinary young people do not have, I remember that when the Celestial Empire was first founded, our Celestial Empire was still a mess, there was no basic industry, the economy was backward, and even a car could not be produced independently, let alone airplanes, artillery and tanks, at that time, most countries in the world looked down on our Celestial Empire.

The capitalist countries headed by the United States have implemented a policy of isolation against the Celestial Empire, blockading it economically and monopolizing it technologically, intending to strangle our great Celestial Empire in its cradle.

Even our big brother looks down on our country, and from time to time he will implement a great power chauvinist policy against us, so that we can't raise our heads.

Later, the great leader Taizu Grandpa was inspired to cast a nuclear shield and build a strong country, so we later successfully experimented with nuclear bombs and had our own nuclear weapons from then on. And a few years later, China had its own strategic nuclear submarines, and since then. Only then did the Celestial Empire truly step onto the world stage and have the confidence of a real great power.

Mr. Chen has experienced that period of history, so he has a deeper understanding and feeling than young people.

"Grandpa Chen, didn't our Celestial Empire promise not to be the first to use the X weapon?" Huo Xiaotian asked.

"Yes, how can we say it, it's also an X big country. X weapons cannot be used to threaten small countries that do not have X weapons, so, to small countries. We are not the first to use Weapon X, and we maintain a restrained attitude towards countries that also possess Weapon X, as long as they do not use Weapon X against us first. We won't use it on them. This is a defensive strategy that takes retreat as advance. Mr. Chen said patiently.

"Although there is a commitment not to be the first to use X weapons, as long as there is an X artillery unit, some countries need to use their brains to think about it when they want to harm the interests of our Celestial Empire, and if we cross the bottom line of our patience, we can give up our commitment not to be the first to use X weapons, as for when to abandon this commitment. All the initiative is in the hands of our Celestial Empire. Mr. Chen said with a sneer.

Huo Xiaotian felt a little cold and swishing in his back when he heard it.

"Look at the five permanent members of the United Nations right now. Which one is not a big country X? The reason why we can become normal is not backed by strong X strength? Mr. Chen said with a smile.

"Yes." Huo Xiaotian nodded thoughtfully.

"But Grandpa Chen, I heard that the anti-missile system of the United States is very powerful, even if we have an X artillery unit, but can our X missiles really hit the mainland of the United States? I mean, can it really be an effective strike? Huo Xiaotian asked a little worriedly.

"Of course, the anti-missile system of the United States is one of the most advanced in the world, in addition to the United States, the S600 of the Rakshasa country is also quite powerful, if it is a traditional intercontinental ballistic missile or a strategic bomber, it is indeed difficult to break through the opponent's anti-missile system, but what if it is a strategic nuclear submarine? Then it's hard to defend.

As far as our current most advanced Type 098 strategic nuclear submarine is concerned, it adopts the magnetofluid propulsion method, replacing the propeller thruster of the previous traditional submarine, and when sneaking on the bottom of the sea, there is no noise, it is completely a submarine ghost, and the sonar cannot be detected at all.

As long as it dives to the bottom of the sea, you don't know where it is, this kind of nuclear submarine can easily break through the strategic surveillance of various countries, it can suddenly emerge from deep water anytime, anywhere, and launch a nuclear attack on you, you have no way to prevent it.

Therefore, with a strategic nuclear submarine, it means that I have the ability to counterattack nuclear, whether it is the United States or the Rakshasa country, no matter how advanced your nuclear weapons are, how powerful the anti-missile system is, as long as you can't oppose my strategic nuclear submarine, then, I have the ability to strike twice.

You can take a look at the fact that the five permanent members of the UN Security Council are the only five countries in the world today that have strategic nuclear submarines.

Oh my God, it will be good for you to know more about current affairs. Mr. Chen patted Huo Xiaotian on the shoulder and said with a smile.

"Yes, Grandpa Chen." Huo Xiaotian benefited a lot and nodded seriously.

The car circled around the mountains for most of the day, and finally came to an empty plain.

It was an open field the size of hundreds of football fields, and on the west side of the field were rows of large houses, to say the least, there were hundreds, and not far away, the yellow sand was rolling, the machinery roared, and the occasional thunderous sound came from afar.

"I'll go, so many tanks!" Huo Xiaotian stood on the hillside, looking around, and saw dozens of tanks on the field, galloping back and forth, the scene was quite spectacular.

"Oh my God, do you know?" Mr. Chen pointed to the tank under the mountain and asked with a smile.

"Could it be that this is the Type 99 main battle tank that Grandpa Chen said?" Huo Xiaotian asked in surprise.

"Hehe, good memory, this is the most advanced main battle tank of our Celestial Empire, using the world's most advanced composite armor and active blasting reactive armor, equipped with a 125 mm caliber smoothbore gun, which can fire armor-piercing shells, armor-fragmenting shells, high-explosive shells and small-caliber artillery missiles, in addition, the 99-type tank is also installed with the world's most advanced killer weapons." When Mr. Chen said this, he smiled mysteriously.

"What's the killer feature?" Huo Xiaotian hurriedly asked.

"See that black box next to the turret machine gun?" Mr. Chen asked, pointing to a tank.

Huo Xiaotian fixed his eyes, and sure enough, there was a rectangular black device on the left hand side of the machine gunner of the Type 99 tank, and nodded with interest.

"Grandpa Chen, what kind of killer is that?" Huo Xiaotian couldn't wait to ask.

"That's a laser suppressor, which can suppress the sighting system of enemy tanks within two kilometers, jamming or even destroying the opponent's sighting equipment.

You must know that the observation and sighting fire control system of a modern tank is like a person's eyes, ears and fists, once the tank loses its observation ability, it is like a pile of scrap copper and rotten iron, only to be beaten, and there is no way to fight back. Mr. Chen smiled proudly. (To be continued......)
