Chapter 407: Impact
The extinguishing of one bright spot after another on the map gradually made Lieutenant General Gegen's heart sink more and more. After the anger, only a chill was left to the bone.
"Have you found the stronghold of the enemy warship? Figuring out where the attack is coming from? Is it a submarine? Kudzu sat down in his chair, his eyes blank, and his tone was even weaker.
"No warships were found on the sea." A senior officer at the command center replied, "However, according to the reports of the damaged ships, as well as the analysis of the traces of the missiles, it is indicated that these attacks came from the island." ”
"What!" Kudzu almost jumped out of his chair when he heard this, looking at his subordinate officers with a look of disbelief on his face.
"The enemy has set up missile launchers on the island where our base is located." The senior officer did not seem to be able to face this fact, and replied with helplessness and anguish.
"General, the missile attack is coming from the southern part of the island." An officer sitting next to the radar instrument suddenly interjected and hurriedly reported.
Lieutenant General Gegen felt a chill in his back, but after a little regained his senses, he immediately ordered: "Order the marines to go out and find out the enemy's missile launch base as soon as possible." ”
"Yes, General." The subordinates were ordered to leave.
Kudzu stayed where he was, unable to calm down anymore. He kept thinking in his heart, scratching his head, and he couldn't figure out which country would target his base. Kudzu quickly filtered through his mind, and after a few thoughts, he first excluded several countries in East Asia.
In fact, what shocked Kudzu the most was that the enemy could lurk in the island without them noticing. On the island, missiles were deployed, which made Kudzu shudder.
By all indications, this was a long-term and well-planned attack.
Although Ge Gen gave the order for the M Army Marines in the base to find the missile launch base, he vaguely felt that this was in vain, and it was just their dying struggle, indicating that he had tried his best to resist and got some psychological comfort.
In total, Doule fired twenty missiles. Sink seven capital warships and three transport ships of the M Army. It also damaged six other warships of different styles, with a hit rate of up to 80 percent. This figure has already made Du Le very satisfied.
Because the base of this island is surrounded by a vast deep sea. It is the best way out for Du Le. Thereupon. Doole controls all armed spider machines. Retreat to the deep sea.
The distribution of spider machines is relatively scattered, and if Du Le recovers them one by one, it is very likely to attract the firepower of the M Army. Or it will be tracked by the M Army. Therefore, the best way to do this is to control them and retreat to the deep sea, so that there is no need to worry about the spider machine having a chance to be captured by the M army.
This time, instead of fighting in its true form, the Spider Machine was all disguised and turned into mobile fortresses, and Du Le would definitely not have any evidence for the M Army. Poor M Army, after being hit hard, is destined to be suspicious of this attack, and cannot find the real mastermind behind this attack.
After making sure that all the spider machines had completed their retreat, Doole immediately teleported away. When he returned to the hotel, Du Le looked at the time, and it was already past two o'clock in the middle of the night.
Du Le got dressed and walked out of the bedroom lightly.
Du Le didn't want to wake up Zhang Daming and Noriko Oda, so he lay down on the sofa in the living room of the suite, then picked up the phone, placed an order with the hotel's customer service, and ordered a few suppers. The customer service of this hotel did a good job, and after a while, the supper ordered by Du Le was delivered.
At this point in time, most TV stations have already left work. The remaining programs are also pre-recorded programs, or reruns of some TV series. For these, Du Le did not have much interest.
So Du Le didn't turn on the TV, just took out a laptop, connected to the Internet, and randomly found a comedy movie that fit his eyes, and watched it while enjoying a supper.
The rare leisure makes Du Le feel very comfortable. It's just that, after all, I have just completed a "pioneering act", and my mind is not so easy to calm down.
No, Du Le hadn't eaten half of the supper before he suddenly thought that he might as well take a look at the major news websites on the Internet to see if there were any reports about the surprise attack on the M Army base.
Most importantly, Du Le was keen to know how the government of country M would respond to the attack.
However, Du Le was soon disappointed, and he still overestimated the efficiency of country M. Not to mention the news websites of China, even the news websites of country M have not reported on them.
But it still makes sense. After all, the M Army base is located thousands of miles away, on a Pacific island far away from the Asian continent, and the incident has only happened for a few hours, and it is a matter of military secrets, even if Country M has already received the relevant report, it will not publicize it. Moreover, the dignified big country has no power to fight back when it is attacked by an unknown raid, and it is not a good thing to say it, and they have to take care of their face.
However, Du Le felt that the attack on the M Army base would be exposed sooner or later. Because, that island is still a good tourist attraction on the map, there are a lot of foreign tourists on the island in sightseeing, vacation, and entertainment, such a big thing, always paper can't hold the fire.
While Du Le was enjoying a supper at ease, the government of country M had already messed up.
The staff of the presidential office of country M, as well as high-ranking officials from all walks of life, gathered one after another, almost all of them looked a little anxious and troubled, and were waiting for news from the Pacific with the president. The president is sitting in a multimedia conference room, headed by senior dignitaries such as the secretary of state, the secretary of defense, and the director of intelligence.
According to the latest information received, the enemy has retreated, however, the losses of the M Army base are extremely heavy.
Therefore, what the president of country M is waiting for at this time, in addition to the detailed casualty report and combat readiness loss statistics, the most important thing is to see if the base can transmit specific information about the enemy.
The president's face is cloudy, and people can't figure out his thoughts, but in fact, in his heart, it is extremely turbulent and bitter. How could he have imagined that such a peaceful night. He could have slept peacefully, but he was awakened by the screeching of the phone, and then heard such a terrifying news!
Since becoming the country's supreme leader, he has not been untroubled by urgent reports. But there has never been news that can make him, who has amazing self-control, be so panicked and anxious.
It is not uncommon for their country M to be attacked, and it is inevitable that they will make enemies in a big country. But here's what's scary. After such a terrible attack. But they don't know who did it or why they attacked them.
This makes the president of country M unable to start even if he wants to fight back, and he still has to worry about whether there will be another wave of attacks, and what kind of attack it will be. What will be the opponent's point of attack...... All of this. All of them have made the president have an unspeakable disorder in his heart. This turned out to be a powerful country. What should I endure?
The feeling of stepping on cotton is the most terrible. Therefore, the president of country M is actually not very concerned about the extent of the damage to the base, and he is most eager to know the truth. What kind of people, what countries, dare to deal with them like this, challenge their authority?
The president of country M has long since disappeared because of the smooth entry of army M into the country and the joy of winning the new energy stone. It's just the name of the president that forces him to try his best to hide his true thoughts, control his emotions, and calmly show control over the overall situation and care for his subordinates.
And a group of high-ranking officials here are not doing things by the president's side, and it is no longer two times a day, of course, they will not be confused, and the president is not close to anyone at this time. Therefore, no one present dared to speak loudly. Even if it's communication, it's whispering. More people are silent, silently waiting for the final verdict.
Soon, Lieutenant General Kudzu sent a detailed report of the damage over the Internet, which was sent to the president at breakneck speed.
After waiting for a long time, I only got this inactive information, which made the tense anger of the president of country M explode.
He grabbed the report angrily, only glanced at it a few times, and his face was even more bruised, and finally he couldn't help but throw the report in front of Khufu, the director of the intelligence bureau.
"What does the Intelligence Bureau do! Is there nothing but that? Don't you have the slightest bit of enemy intelligence? Or are you trying to tell me that this department is redundant! ”
The director of the intelligence bureau, Khufu, was in a cold sweat, and his back was already cold and swishing, and he knew very well where his power came from. If, at this moment, he cannot give an explanation, perhaps, not until tomorrow, he will be stepping down.
Hu Fu picked up the report and quickly scanned it, but after that, the expression on his face turned to great anger! In this attack, the losses of the M army were even greater than he imagined. Generally speaking, the entire base can be basically said to have been destroyed.
This bone-piercing document was quickly passed through the hands of everyone in the room. The atmosphere in the conference room was even more depressing.
"We, country M, have been attacked. Our dignity is being torn apart little by little. Can we tolerate it? The president of country M said with both pain and emotion.
"I can't stand it!" Everyone present said in unison.
"No matter which country or organization, we will make them pay a heavier price!" The president of country M clenched his fists and said.
The government of country M can't hold back the news, and they don't want to hide it. The president's close think tank has extremely high-end crisis management capabilities, and the entire cabinet decided to officially release the news after deliberation.
Because they know very well that they can't hide it. If the attack on the base had been reported by the media first, the government of country M, specifically the president's entire cabinet, would have been condemned by the people at home, and once the situation got out of control, it would have been even more difficult to get out of control.
Therefore, shortly after the conclusion of the internal meeting, the president of country M immediately contacted reporters and held a press conference at the presidential palace.
Presidential Office of Country M. At this time, it was already the afternoon of the same day.
Hundreds of special correspondents from major media outlets around the world are either idly standing on the grass outside the presidential palace waiting for announcements, or gathering in twos and threes to exchange news and trends, or they are speculating on what kind of information will be announced at the government's press conference.
No one would have imagined that the press conference that the Presidential Office had notified them to attend would be such a big announcement.
After a while, there were more and more big men in suits around the grass. After seeing such a large and weighty lineup, some veteran reporters. Finally, I began to vaguely feel that something big had happened.
Sure enough, after a while, they saw the president of country M and walked over in person. More than a dozen photographers with video cameras immediately picked up their cameras and pointed them at the president of country M.
It is important to know that although it is a press conference of the presidential office of country M, under normal circumstances, only the public relations officials of the government will come out and make a statement on behalf of the presidential office, and in rare cases, the president himself will be dispatched.
So. The president himself appeared here. This means that it is no small matter.
For a while, all the reporters were very excited, knowing that this trip would bring back high-value news to their respective publications, and they were looking forward to what the president of country M would announce later.
Compared to their excitement. The president of country M stood on the stage with a sad face. Holding a white card in his hand.
Isn't it. Which continent of country M is favored by terrorists? Seeing this, some reporters from foreign media couldn't help but speculate maliciously in their hearts. To know the Tao of the Devil, in recent years. Although country M's military operations abroad have been successful, it has been frequently attacked by terrorists at home.
Reporters in country M are wondering whether the M army suffered a defeat abroad, or whether the embassy was attacked by terrorists.
However, after the president of country M made the contents of the card public, all the reporters were shocked!
"On a certain day, in a certain month, at 12:30 p.m. in country M, that is, two hours ago, an island base in the Pacific Ocean of Army M was attacked by a military force, and Army M suffered heavy losses."
After reading the transcript prepared by the crisis management team on the card, the president did not say a word, let alone pay attention to the various tricky questions from the reporters who had recovered from the shock and eagerly rushed to ask questions, but simply turned his head and left the scene to the official spokesman to take care of the aftermath.
This news is undoubtedly like a bomb with huge explosive power exploding in the group of reporters.
The mighty army of country M is under attack! I am afraid that this kind of thing could have happened only during the war years a few decades ago!
The Asian countries, especially the allies of the M army, have also sensed some of the situation from the transfer of the M army base. However, no country can imagine that the Pacific base of Army M will be attacked!
Not long after the departure of the president of country M, reporters from many Asian countries set their sights on Chinese reporters and Soviet reporters.
When the two Chinese reporters saw this, their hearts were shocked.
Not to mention journalists from other countries, they will be suspicious.
In Asia, the countries that dare to challenge country M, apart from the Soviet Union and China, really can't think of which country it is.
Could this be the trigger for war?
The reporters at the scene immediately took out their mobile phones and made long-distance calls, hoping to transmit the words of the president of country M back to China as quickly as possible.
Which of the journalists in the presidential palace of country M has no government background?
As a result, the dignitaries of each country were quickly informed and each convened an emergency meeting.
Soon after, various countries in the world, especially Asian countries, issued their own statements.
The spokesman of the Chinese government also issued a statement half an hour after the President of State M spoke. The Chinese Government expresses its deep concern over the attack on the M Army base. In addition, the Chinese government said that it would provide some assistance to the government of country M in terms of intelligence.
The Chinese government's statement is self-evident and more of a statement. The attitude of the Chinese government is very simple, that is, your M army has been attacked, and it has nothing to do with us.
Of course, many things in the world cannot simply be reduced to general right and wrong. The struggle of interests between countries is often cruel.
The Pacific base of Army M has been attacked, and the government of country M will definitely use this as an excuse to look for target enemies everywhere.
Who knows, the M parliament will not want to take the opportunity to expand its territory and start a war.
Who knows if country M has really been attacked.
Even if country M is really attacked, will the enemy who attacked army M attack other countries again?
No one knows.
Not only to guard against country M, but also to guard against attackers in dark corners, the Ministry of Defense of China issued an order to be on full alert.
China's northern neighbor, the Soviet Union, also adopted the same approach and put them on full alert.
On the contrary, some allies of country M, such as the government of country R, are quite happy, and they seem to have shaken off the shadow of last year's missile attack. He voluntarily issued a statement that he was willing to send troops to assist country M in maintaining stability in the Pacific Rim region.
For a moment, the whole of Asia seemed to be enveloped in the dark clouds of war
No matter how grim the international situation develops, for Li Shoufu and Chen Baoya, it has nothing to do with them. Their wedding took place as scheduled.
Du Le took Noriko Oda to attend the wedding ceremony of Li Shoufu and witnessed the union of the two couples.
The entire wedding of Li Shoufu and Chen Baoya was low-key and luxurious.
There are not many luxury cars to pick up and drop off brides, only nine, but all of them are luxury new cars worth millions of dollars.
The bride's wedding dress is a handmade wedding dress designed by a famous foreign designer and sewn by a famous tailor, with a price of more than 1 million US dollars.
The total value of the jewelry, including the sapphire necklace given by Du Le, is more than $10 million.
Even, as long as the guests present to participate in the congratulations, they can get a red envelope of tens of thousands of yuan.
The Oriental Pearl Hotel, which is a wedding banquet, is full of various newlywed decorations. The cost of dishes, utensils, and senior service personnel made of precious materials also exceeded 10 million dollars.
Li Shoufu's magnanimity at the wedding made Du Le smack.
Du Le was rich, but he had never tried to spend so much.
Li Shoufu is not the head of the Li family, and his wedding cost so much money, almost reaching 30 million US dollars, reaching more than 100 million Chinese yuan.
When Du Le learned about this wedding budget, he had a clearer understanding of the Li family's wealth.
However, at this time, what gave Du Le a slight headache was Noriko Oda, who was standing beside him and accompanying him.
Noriko Oda seemed to be very envious of Chen Baoya's treatment, and looked at him with a particularly gentle gaze from time to time.
She also seems to want such a wedding! (To be continued......)
