Chapter 185: Break and Stand
Listening to the exclamation in his ears, Li Lan smiled.
This photo was taken when he first inspected the Air Force Headquarters, and it shows a group photo of him and all the pilots of the First Air Wing in the Red Guard Corps, which is still in the construction stage. In the back are two Black Hawks docked together, and in the distance of the photo is a row of six Black Hawks.
This photo, which was supposed to be kept as a souvenir, came in handy at this time. Especially when Li Lan heard the exclamation of the No. 1 chief, his heart was full of pride.
There are not many things that can surprise a country's supreme leader, especially the shock of such a surprise.
On the phone, after the exclamation, the No. 1 chief was silent, and Li Lan was not in a hurry.
A moment later, the voice of Chief No. 1 came from the phone again: "No wonder, it turns out that this is the source of your confidence." Just now, I even had extremely impulsive thoughts. I want to get you here, so that haode can find out where you got all these things. The army equipment is not too amazing, but you can even get the air force, and these planes look very good. I don't know how many secrets you're still hiding. ”
"No matter how many secrets I have, they can't change the fact that I am Chinese." Li Lan did not explain anything, nor did he regret sending the photo, after all, in more than a year, the Air Force will naturally not be able to keep it secret, and it is better to take the initiative now to surprise China by that time. As for how China would view him, Li Lan didn't think too much about it.
If his country is really so short-sighted, then he will not rest on his laurels. Anyway. It is absolutely impossible for China to deal with him with such fanfare. At that time, he will also have room to maneuver, and China really wants to do so. I also have to think about whether he will completely fall to Europe and the United States. After all, he is now. It is already qualified for Europe and the United States to accept it.
Moreover, in Li Lan's eyes, the No. 1 leader of his motherland is really so short-sighted, and he will not support him so much. So, he wasn't worried about that. Hearing the words of the No. 1 leader, Li Lan only smiled lightly.
"Tell you, how many secrets are you hiding behind your back? Only when I see more value will I increase my support. The No. 1 leader quickly became serious and asked cautiously.
"Is it worth it? Then I said that in a year, I will have an aircraft carrier battle group that can go to sea to fight. The core of the operation is a conventionally powered aircraft carrier with a displacement of 80,000 tons with two attack nuclear submarines, do you believe it? Li Lan said very simply.
Any normal person would not believe Li Lan's words, because no matter how you listen to it, it is a joke. It is absolutely impossible to build an aircraft carrier battle group in Africa. Even those escort ships in the aircraft carrier battle group are completely impossible. Not to mention those two attack nuclear submarines.
On Shijie, there are many coastal countries that want to have aircraft carriers, but there are a few countries that really have aircraft carriers, or aircraft carriers of more than 80,000 tons. It doesn't matter what motivates it. All shijie, and only the United States has a real heavy aircraft carrier.
So, say something like that. It's more of a joke in the world.
However, I don't know why. The No. 1 leader believed Li Lan's words a little, and he felt very strange. It's obviously impossible, but he can't afford to have too many doubts in his heart. Such a thing has never been encountered in the life of Chief No. 1.
"Say it! Are you an alien? "Chief One is not joking, this is what he feels most deeply at the moment. China has been preparing for this for 10 or 20 years in order to develop its aircraft carrier strategy, and now when we hear Li Lan's words, we can't blame him for losing his temper, and I believe that everyone will have such thoughts.
"Huh! I'm not an alien. Li Lan smiled lightly, it was very rare to hear such words from a national leader.
"That's my auditory hallucinations." Chief No. 1 said with certainty.
"You didn't have auditory hallucinations, and what I just said, you can listen to it as a joke, or you can think I'm bragging." Li Lan said.
"Joke, but I don't feel that you're joking with me, and as for bragging, are you going to blow the cow out of the galaxy? And bragging with me, do you think there will be good fruit to eat when you get to zuihou? The No. 1 leader said firmly. In fact, he wanted to ask, how long has Li Lan been planning for this matter?
"In that case, then you choose to believe it, in this way, is my value reflected?" Li Lan didn't say anything more, and went straight to the topic just now.
When the No. 1 leader asked about his value, his answer was not to be pretentious, but to really tell the No. 1 leader, as for believing it or not, he didn't care. Aircraft carriers are such a thing, sooner or later, they all have to be on the road, and it is better to give the No. 1 leader a preventive shot in advance.
"If it's really as you say, then I will spare no effort to support you." The No. 1 leader said decisively.
"Oh, aren't you afraid that I will grow stronger and compete for the interests that originally belonged to China? Aren't you afraid that one day I will affect the stability of China? Aren't you afraid that I'll cause a shijie war? ”
"Since ancient times, you have seen a great power rise in peace. Would the United States have been where it is today without two Shijie wars? It is impossible to surpass this framework within the framework that others have already set, so if you really want to be strong, you need to break the original framework and establish your own framework. If you don't break this framework, your strength will only be suppressed all the time.
Just like the current international situation, the United States is the dominant one, the framework has been built, and the strategic eastward shift is to suppress us. The only way to do that is to let the framework fall apart. Remember the thirty years I told you before? That is the most important 30 years of our accumulation of strength, and only 30 years of accumulation can we have the strength to break this framework. If there really comes a day when you can break this framework, remove the shackles on our heads, and successfully make the country rise, then you will be the greatest hero of all China. Even if China will participate in it at that time, it will be an opportunity for you. (Would Gorgeous say, is this the main line of the book?) Chief No. 1 said seriously, and this was the first time he had told "outsiders" about the country's long-term strategy. If it weren't for Li Lan's embodiment of his "value" just now, he wouldn't have said these words at all.
"It seems that we have similar ideas, and only by breaking can we stand back. But you really believe in me. Li Lan also replied seriously.
"I don't believe it, but I'm going to let the opportunity slip out of my eyes." The No. 1 leader said confidently.
"You are the most courageous leader of a country I have ever met." Li Lan said.
"I don't like to gamble, but I don't mind betting big. So, you're ready to accept my bets! This is up to you to sit in the bank, I am with the bank, and it is up to you to win or lose. Chief No. 1 said.
"At the earliest, I said, choose to believe me, you will never regret it, not now, and not in the future. With your support, we won. Li Lan said confidently.
"However, if I fail, I will lose a little bit of my gambling money at most, and you will have nothing, so I want you to be very serious and cautious." Chief No. 1 did not forget to say one more word of advice.
"Don't worry, I care more than you do." Of course, Li Lan knows the road ahead, and if he misses, he will be shattered, so he will not be careless at any time.
Hearing Li Lan's answer, Chief No. 1 didn't say anything, but returned to the previous topic, "You just said that you need raw materials and ores?" I remember that part of Somalia had a lot of development value, and you seem to be already developing it. ”
"It's a development, but there's still a big gap. In the past two years, I have at least 100 million tons of refined ore shortage. Not coal mines, at least iron ore is needed. This figure is the result of Li Lan's many calculations, as long as 100 million tons of refined ore can be obtained from the outside world within two years, then the base can be in the fastest production state every day. Including the fastest construction state of the navy, land and air force, plus the construction of two sub-bases.
Hearing Li Lan's words like this, Chief No. 1 couldn't help frowning, at present, under the mining volume of iron ore in China, there is only 100 million tons of refined iron ore output every year, and in two years, he actually needs 100 million tons. With such a quantity, it can already meet the needs of any country except the United States, China, and Russia for several years. The No. 1 leader was unimaginable, how could Li Lan's small territory be able to digest so many mineral resources. It's especially the demand when you mine yourself.
Compared with China, according to the normal consumption ratio, in terms of the amount of consumption, Li Lan is the real Shijie first.
However, the No. 1 chief was not intimidated by such a number, 100 million tons sounds like a lot, but China is not unable to take it, after all, there is a two-year buffer time, and there is a Russia on the other side, after all, Russia has always been a major exporter of resources.
"Is such drastic attrition a preparation for the reunification of Somalia in two years?"
"Yes!" Li Lan replied very dryly.
"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away." Chief No. 1 didn't ask anything more, every time he had a conversation with Li Lan, he would have an inner trade-off, and the result this time was no different from the last time. And the shots are getting more and more generous.
"Since you are so refreshing, then I can't be too stingy, there will be big gifts in the future." Li Lan was not hypocritical, nor did she shirk it, but just made a very solemn promise. He is not the kind of person who likes to make empty promises, 100 million tons of refined ore is enough for him to produce twenty 80,000-ton conventionally powered aircraft carriers.
PS: If you don't like it, please be silent! Because Gorgeous loves their country. (To be continued......)
