Chapter 475: The Excitement of 1.3 Billion People
The atmosphere of the talks between the two sides has become more and more in-depth with the in-depth exchanges, and the two sides have finally had a brief exchange of intentions on the situation around their respective countries.
In the surrounding environment of the two countries, where disputes over maritime rights and interests are increasing, it is natural that the two naval commanders cannot do without the discussion of maritime issues.
The topic of maritime rights and disputes began with Wu Shengli, and the issue he was talking about happened to be Diaoyutai (not a typo!). Surrounding situation.
Regarding this question, Suleiman said very simply: "According to our understanding of the process of Chinese history and civilization, not to mention Diaoyutai, Ryukyu is also Chinese, and these historical facts cannot be changed at all." Japan's attempt to change this status quo will be a humiliating act for itself in the future. ”
This answer made Wu Shengli not know what to say for a while, how could he not know about the problem of Ryukyu, but the rice had to be eaten in one bite, not to mention that now China is not at all suitable for forcibly fighting for the rights and interests of the islands and reefs of Diaoyutai, let alone the Ryukyus, which will directly confront the US military, which is not in line with China's future strategic situation.
"What do you think about the U.S. announcement that Diaoyutai is applicable to the Japan-U.S. Security Treaty?" Wu Shengli spoke again.
"As for the Japan-US security treaty, it is a treaty between people, and it is up to them to interpret it. However, we also don't like the-stirring stick of the United States, and of course we don't like the Japanese even more. Suleiman did not say anything specific, and he also expressed the Somali side's antipathy towards Japan and the United States, and his words did not end there, and he added at the end: "Isn't Japan making a fuss about the purchase of the Diaoyu Islands now?" In fact, as long as China asks, I think our leaders will be happy to agree to help, for example, you can also make the decision to lease the Diaoyu Islands to us. The lease period can be set for a year or two, and then you can also be disgusted with little Japan. ”
When Wu Shengli heard Suleiman's last sentence, he was immediately thundered, but after thinking about it carefully, this is also a good way, after all, with the participation of the Somali side, many things will be much more convenient at that time.
If the Somali side has no other intentions, it will be a very good solution for China. It's just that Somalia is going to push Somalia ahead of China, is Somalia really willing to do this kind of thing? Is there some shady purpose behind it?
But that's not something for him to decide. It also needs to be discussed with Li Lan, and it is also necessary to obtain the consent of the Politburo, and it is also necessary to ensure that China can take back the Diaoyutai from Somalia in the future.
"Whether this is feasible still needs further high-level consultations between the two sides, however. In my heart, this is to use Somalia as a shield. It is also difficult for us to live with our conscience. Wu Shengli really felt that the black lieutenant general in front of him was a little cute. Whether or not it had other intentions, it was the first time he had encountered a government that wanted to keep the trouble in his arms.
"It's natural, I'm just a proposal, and the outcome needs to be decided by our leaders themselves. However, from what I know about our leaders. As long as you ask, he will not think of refusing. The main reason for this is that our leaders hate the Japanese very much. "Suleiman sold Li Lan mercilessly, of course. This is Li Lan asking him to deliberately sell himself, because he will go to China for a state visit after a while, and today's meeting is actually a foreshadowing of his official state visit to China.
This was the first time that Wu Shengli had heard from the top level of Somalia that Li Lan still had such a personal national sentiment, and this really surprised him. All along, in his eyes, Li Lan should be a person with a very political outlook, and this kind of person is generally not swayed by emotions, and everything must be based on interests. It's just that now this concept seems to need to change.
"Your country also seems to have some trouble around the Gulf of Aden? Today, Yemen even initiated arbitration with the United Nations, accusing your EEZ of violating Yemen's EEZ. It's a bit of a problem. Wu Shengli continued to speak.
"Huh!" Suleiman smiled slightly, shook his head and said: "This is not a trouble, if you are not blessed, you will be beaten, I am curious, the United States is jumping behind, and it does not actually help others, how much prestige will the United States have at that time." ”
Wu Shengli really felt that today's conversation with Suleiman made him deeply feel that he was really old, so a very complicated issue in his opinion, there is only one word "hit" here, isn't Somalia not afraid of being sanctioned by the United Nations? No matter how strong the strength is, there is no need to rush so much, and Somalia does not seem to be an impulsive person! This really made him a little puzzled.
Originally, he also wanted to use this to help Somalia, solve this trouble, and also use this to deepen the friendship between the two sides, which was also the order of the No. 1 chief, but as a result, he didn't know how to speak, whether it was absolutely impossible to help Somalia fight Yemen.
Seeing that Wu Shengli did not answer immediately, Suleiman continued: "Actually, this matter is very complicated, the United States secretly sent personnel to Yemen, wanting to help Yemen train its troops and build an anti-missile system in Yemen, and at the same time, it also plans to lease Socotra Island and build an anti-missile system and military facilities on it. This matter is still only in the works, and it is expected that within two years, the United States will have results. ”
Wu Shengli had also heard about this matter, and he had just heard about it before he came, but he didn't expect that the intelligence in Somalia would be so fast, and it had only happened for more than ten hours, and Somalia had already noticed it.
However, on this kind of matter, as a naval commander, he is not qualified to express any opinions on behalf of the country, after all, the state has not yet given instructions on this matter, and he is not good at talking nonsense.
"The world was originally so unpeaceful, but now in this unrest, the breath of the coming rainstorm is beginning to thicken, which is really not good news." Wu Shengli sighed and said.
The two of them were silent for a moment, and then continued to talk about the future cooperation between the two navies, and also determined the military exchange activities between the two navies in the next period of time.
Half an hour later, the closed meeting ended, and Farah arrived on time, and the two cooperated with Wu Shengli to enjoy a welcome banquet together, and then rushed to the shipyard where the launching ceremony was held.
When their car drove into the shipyard's launching slipway, they saw a large number of people and reporters already waiting here.
Under the order maintained by the naval soldiers, the three of them once again walked on the red carpet and walked down the red carpet to the slipway that was ready for the launching ceremony.
"Beautiful!" Smelling the familiar smell of seawater and seeing the majestic posture of the two heavy aircraft carriers in dry dock, Wu Shengli's heart was extremely excited, and turned into two beautiful words.
At this time, the two aircraft carriers were already covered with ribbons, and the navy's gunwales had been painted, and around the aircraft carriers, the Chinese naval soldiers were nervously communicating with the Somali naval soldiers.
At the front of the deck, at the end of the catapult on the straight-through deck, two rolls of crisp white cloth silk are waiting to be removed, and it can be seen from the ship numbers 17 and 18 that these two are the two new aircraft carriers owned by the Chinese Navy after the Liaoning. and cloth silk, which is the name of these two aircraft carriers, will also determine which fleet these two aircraft carriers will belong to.
Within the Chinese military, most people did not know until today that the original country had built two aircraft carriers in Somalia, and many naval soldiers who came to Somalia did not wake up to the mission of this trip until they saw these two aircraft carriers. Such astonishing news made every soldier unable to calm down.
As a navy, when they look at the Somali Navy's twin aircraft carrier formation, there is no need to say that they are envious in their hearts, and the Somali Navy is still able to fight with a maritime hegemon like the United States, which is even more prejudatory to these young naval officers and men.
Now, these are not problems, these two aircraft carriers are the greatest comfort for every Chinese Navy soldier.
"All the viewers in front of the TV, I'm doing a live broadcast in Somalia right now, and now you can see that right behind me, there are two aircraft carriers with colorful flags, which are of the same class as the aircraft carriers that were previously in service with the Somali Navy, and all the performance indicators are exactly the same.
And these two aircraft carriers are the aircraft carriers of our Motherland, as well as our second and third aircraft carriers. It turned out that just when the whole world was talking about when China would build its own aircraft carriers, the country had reached an agreement with the original Freedom Alliance, and these two aircraft carriers had always been built for us.
Please forgive me for my excitement, I believe that every Chinese who cares about China's national defense is in the same mood as me at this moment. The two warships will complete the launching and naming ceremony here, and then, accompanied by the formation of our navy, they will form a two-aircraft carrier formation together and embark on the road home.
……
At this moment, it is a day of common joy for the 1.3 billion people, and our navy has once again taken a solid step.
……”
Zheng Xing, a CCTV reporter in Somalia who was broadcasting the ceremony live, was also excitedly introducing the situation to hundreds of millions of viewers in China, and all military programs in China were also invited to interpret them for the first time.
Such news was so sudden, so sudden that no one had the slightest preparation, and overnight, China had two aircraft carriers of more than 80,000 tons, and this fact was placed in front of them, which made every Chinese feel both unbelievable and full of indescribable excitement.
