The reason why China "suddenly" held a large-scale military parade is actually very simple, that is, to deter other countries, mainly the Soviet Union, by showing force and advanced weapons, so as to provide a safe international environment for China's economic reform and development, and to use its limited funds for economic construction.

To put it more concretely, China hopes that this military parade will prove to the United States that China has the ability and confidence to be on an equal footing with the powerful powers, and at the same time warns the Soviet Union that although China has been disarmed, its strength is still there, and it should not act rashly because of this.

Another role is to boost the morale of the people in China and let the people of the whole country see the fruitful results achieved since the reform and opening up. Since 1976, in the past five years or so, China has made rapid progress in modernization, with rapid growth in national income and economic strength, and in particular, our military strength is unprecedentedly strong. We should prove and assure the people of the country with real facts that as long as we rally closely around the party-central committee headed by the supreme leader, our cause will be able to advance with its head held high.

Of course, such a tight time is also to balance the relationship between the Soviet Union and the United States: the Soviet Union cannot be weakened, but it must not be provoked; The Americans should not be too disappointed to think that China was making overtures to the Soviet Union, nor should the United States be allowed to think that China would act completely on their faces.

In a word: the purpose of such a hasty military parade in China is to show China's reading power surname.

In my previous life, a big military parade was held in 1985, and it was also a decision made based on the domestic and international situation at that time. In fact, in 1984, China held a large-scale military parade in a certain place, but few people knew about it.

In the previous life, China had many military parades later, but there was plenty of time, because the military parades at that time were basically just a show of muscles, because at that time China no longer had obvious external pressure, and it gradually diluted its political purpose.

October 1 is the golden autumn in the capital, which can be described as the autumn is crisp and the sun is shining. At 7 o'clock in the morning, a majestic and mighty army assembled on Chang'an Avenue and various military combat vehicles and missile vehicles were lined up on Chang'an Avenue. The proud common people also gathered excitedly here, but they were all standing on both sides of the road to watch the excitement, and there was a long line of mighty and handsome guards between them and the road, and naturally there were many loyal plainclothes guards in the crowd.

In the huge Tiananmen Square, more than 80,000 young people formed a huge national flag and a huge military flag with flowers and bright yellow bouquets of the national flag.

In the lounge on the upper floor of Tianan-Gate City, the supreme chief, dressed in a dark gray tunic, sat with Yu Gangqiu and other party and state leaders, chatting and laughing heartily, and these people let out hearty laughter from time to time.

Not far away is the political leaders of various countries in China and some friendly countries invited by China. The heads of political axes include the Prince of Cambodia, the President of Romania, the President of Iraq, the Vice President of France, the Chancellor of Germany, and many more.

Among the envoys were the ambassadors of the Soviet Union to China and the ambassadors of Vietnam to China.

However, from the faces of the two of them, there was no excitement and expectation on the faces of the other envoys, let alone the excitement and joy on the faces of the surrounding China.

There were a lot of envoys here, but they had more on their minds, and the Western envoys, led by the Americans and the British, had a complicated mind, and they wanted China's armed forces to be strong enough to help them resist the Soviet attack. At the same time, they did not want China to be too strong, not to be strong enough to be on an equal footing with them, and they did not want to exist in a country that was on a par with the Soviet Union and could not be controlled. What's more, in the Falklands War, China used Argentina as a pawn to give them a dismount, they really don't want China to have too new, too good weapons, and the ambassadors of some African countries are very supportive of their little brothers, China can be stronger than the Soviet Union and the United States, hoping that China can lead them to say no to the United States and the Soviet Union.

As for Iraq, Iran, Jordan and other Middle Eastern countries, they do not like the Soviet Union or the United States, and their greatest desire is to neutralize between the two hegemons, hoping that China can shelter them from the wind and rain. Naturally, their ambassadors also hope to witness China catch up with or even surpass the Soviet Union and the United States here.

Although they know that China's anti-ship missiles and cruise missiles can surpass the similar weapons of the Soviet Union, and even surpass the similar weapons of European and American countries, they always do not believe that this is made by China itself, and there is always a consciousness in their hearts that China is either copying the Soviet Union or copying the United States, and that China's military science and technology cannot be so advanced. I also do not believe that China's military unions are in full bloom in all military fields. I heard that China has also made great strides in tanks and fighter jets, but the ambassadors of the two countries absolutely do not believe it, and the purpose of their visit today is to deny this rumor.

As for the ambassadors of India and other countries, their mood can be described as sour, they don't want China to be strong and have to accept that China has developed to the point where they can't even think of catching up, and they only hope that a few foreign faces will be produced in today's military parade for them to see, so that there is a topic of ridiculing China.

Yes, they came to see jokes, or wanted to see jokes.

Of course, there are a lot of people who come to play soy sauce, and the strength or weakness of China's national strength has nothing to do with them, they are more to see the excitement, on the other hand, they also want to learn about the surname of China's [***] industrial products, to see if they can buy some cheap and high-quality arms for their country.

Guo Zhuocheng was arranged in the military seat of the review stand today, and sat with Qian Xuesen and other military scientists. Before coming here, he had already had a brief conversation with Iraqi President Uday. Uday really wanted to talk to Guo Zhuocheng for a while, but the time was too tight, so he had to wait for after the parade.

At 10 o'clock, the secretary of the Beijing Municipal Party Committee announced loudly: "The people from all walks of life in the capital wish the 33rd anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China to begin now!" Play the national anthem, raise the national flag, and fire a salute! ”

The 56 salutes take the arched gatehouse of Zhengyangmen as the center point, avoid Zhengyangmen, sit in the north and face south, form a "eight" shape, and swing at equal distances on the left and right sides of the square of Zhengyangmen and the Monument to the People's Heroes.

After the national flag was hoisted, the defense minister personally rode to the Jinshui Bridge to ask the supreme leader to inspect the troops, and then the two parade ground carrying the supreme chief and the defense minister began to drive out of Tiananmen-Chenglou, drive over the Jinshui Bridge, and advance along Chang'an Avenue to inspect the army, navy, and air force of the Chinese People's Liberation Army.

The supreme chief greeted aloud with full pity: "Hello comrades! ”

The officers and soldiers in the phalanx replied in unison: "Good chief! ”

The Supreme Chief shouted again: "Comrades have worked hard! ”

The officers and soldiers replied loudly: "Serve the people!" ”

After inspecting all the phalanxes, the two parade vehicles returned to Tiananmen Square-Chenglou one after the other. When the supreme chief and others stood still on the city tower, the phalanx, which had already lined up on Chang'an Avenue, began to pass in front of the rostrum and be reviewed by everyone.

Taking advantage of the fact that the phalanx had not yet come, several people around Guo Zhuocheng chatted happily, one by one they were very happy with the fruitful results that their country had achieved in recent years, and at the same time, they were very proud to participate in it.

Guo Zhuocheng is basically surrounded by great scientists, all of whom are experts who have made outstanding achievements in China's science and technology, and they have reason to be proud and have reason to enjoy the joy of reviewing the army.

Qian Xuesen whispered to Guo Shucheng: "Xiao Guo, you have contributed to these great improvements, without you, I don't know what our weapons would look like." At least a lot of them can only stay in the real yàn room. ”

This is really Qian Xuesen's feelings, and it is also very realistic and very realistic. If it were not for Guo Zhuocheng's rebirth, if it were not for Guo Zhuocheng's efforts, and if China's science and technology had continued to follow the path of its previous life, then not only would it not have excellent anti-ship missiles and cruise missiles, but also advanced tanks and fighters.

However, Guo Zhuocheng knows that although his role in it is very important, Qian Xuesen's contribution is not small, and he often just instills some specious concepts in his previous life to them, saying that it sounds good is a new concept, and saying that it is not good is pure bragging, just like the fake military fans in the previous life poured water on the Internet, whether there is any real insight in this, whether there is something that can be used, Qian Xuesen and them need to study and keep the truth from the false.

After they finally found good things and really useful ideas, they carried out concrete implementation, and the success of each new weapon was attributed to at least 80 percent. The only thing Guo has made the most of his greatest contribution is his achievements on the Spark computer and the provision of upfront funding for various scientific research projects.

Guo Zhuocheng said sincerely: "Old Qian, when it comes to merit, we all have merit, and we should all be proud of ourselves and happy for the progress of our country's military technology." You are our guide, and it should be you and other dedicated scientists who will be treated more with courtesy. ”

There was no hypocrisy in Guo Shucheng's words, nor was he deliberately modest, but he even pointed out the merits of Qian Lao.

Qian Xuesen and several scientists next to him nodded slightly, Qian Xuesen smiled: "Let me tell you, why did it talk about ourselves?" Feel like we're showing off? ”

Several people laughed.

At this time, a white-haired expert was pleasantly surprised: "Here they are!" ”

I saw the honor guard of the navy, army, and air force, which was walking in front with three handsome soldiers guarding the military flag, and walked majestically over. What catches everyone's eye is their uniform pace, almost the same height, and brand-new handsome military uniforms, which give people a pleasing feeling, without the evil spirit that the army should have, but it is definitely shocking.
