PS: When I went back to my hometown, the only few manuscripts I had were gone.

Trade!
These two words always have a very special feeling for the No. 1 chief. The young man on the other end of the phone, many times he couldn't read, which was a very unexpected thing for a leader with a political career of decades. But this is the case, Li Lan has a very high evaluation in his reflection, and he is also the best among the young people he has ever seen, and there is no one.
In the face of such a young man and a Chinese, to be honest, Chief No. 1 often has a trace of other thoughts. I was afraid that this young man would be pierced that day, and I was also afraid that this young man would act recklessly. I hope he lives well, and I hope he can go further, but only if he doesn't bring a crisis to the country.
Nuclear weapons are the sharp weapons of major powers, and they are the hammer of the country. If it weren't for nuclear weapons, China would never be like this today, and it would not have such a huge voice in the international community today. However, nuclear weapons are a double-edged sword, and if they are not handled well, they are likely to destroy the entire world.
Giving the nuclear weapons to Li Lan, Chief No. 1 does not need to think about it at all, and he will definitely refuse. Speaking of transactions, he also knew that Li Lan had too many good things there, and the truth inside the veil was not only something that the whole world wanted to explore, but also what he was most interested in.
It is undeniable that in the past two years, China has received a lot of good things from Li Lan, and its interests are also very involved. But there are some interests that can be given up compared to a nuclear war.
After thinking about it again and again, the No. 1 leader replied: "Although I am very interested in the transaction you are talking about, I ...... it."
"No, but. A nuclear war cannot be fought! The No. 1 leader wanted to refuse, but was interrupted by Li Lan, such a rude act. I am afraid that only Li Lan can do it in the whole world, "Even if the United States still intends to carry out a nuclear attack on Somalia." I will not fight back with nuclear weapons either. ”
Although Li Lan interrupted his words, the No. 1 leader was not angry, because the current Li Lan was already qualified to talk to him on an equal footing, and since it was plain, naturally no one would be higher than whom. However, after hearing Li Lan's words, Chief No. 1 did not intend to relax: "Actually, there is no need for you to do this at all, as long as you announce the plan of the United States for a nuclear strike, then I have a reason to provide you with a nuclear umbrella, after all, the United States violated international law first." ”
Li Lan didn't understand the meaning of these words. But for him, it is more secure to hold the strength in his own hands. And if he doesn't have nuclear weapons, or if he doesn't send a message to the outside world that he has them, then the war will be very difficult to end.
He also understands the concerns of the No. 1 leader, this kind of thing is very likely to plunge China into a nuclear crisis, and if he is from the perspective of the No. 1 leader, he will refuse in every possible way.

There are generally three types of air-to-air missiles that modern fighters need to fight in air combat: close-range combat missiles, medium-range interception missiles, and long-range interception missiles.
The United States develops air-to-air missiles. Contrary to Russia and China, air-to-air missiles do not require a long range, high speed, and great power, so US air-to-air missiles are small in size, light in weight, fast in speed, and flexible. Hit precisely.
The US air combat tactics are to avoid engaging in close combat with enemy planes, and to use powerful aerial reconnaissance capabilities, air early warning capabilities, air command capabilities, and air electronic countermeasure capabilities to launch advanced medium-range interception missiles for over-the-horizon attacks. Strive to shoot down enemy aircraft from beyond visual range, once the enemy aircraft is spotted approaching. Quickly use their high-speed cruising ability and stealth ability to distance themselves from enemy aircraft. Never take the initiative in close-quarters combat. In particular, the F-22 strictly prohibits close-quarters combat with the enemy unless it is a last resort.
The most advanced F-22 fifth-generation fighter of the US military is loaded with 6 AIM-120 medium-range air-to-air missiles and 2 Cobra AIM-9X combat missiles before air combat, but the Cobra combat missile is used as a "self-defense weapon" in the pilot's execution tactics manual, and will not be used unless absolutely necessary.
The US military believes that if a combat missile shoots down an enemy plane in a close-range air-to-air dogfight, it may also be shot down by an enemy plane, because the combat missile of the enemy plane is also the world's first-class level. This is the reason why the US military mainly uses medium-range attack tactics.
The U.S. military's medium-range attack tactics have achieved brilliant results against weak countries. Which countries have outdated and backward fighter jets, poor air-to-air missile performance, and average pilot skills. Is this tactic still very effective against China's and Russia's advanced fighters with particularly excellent maneuverability and stealth capability, air-to-air missiles with a longer range and equally superb guidance methods, and pilots who have undergone rigorous training?
However, the battlefield is changing rapidly, where you want to do whatever you want, after the missiles of both sides are launched, while maneuvering to dodge, the distance is also narrowing, and close-range combat is still an air combat mode that cannot be avoided.
However, because of its long range, the interception missile is much larger than the combat missile, and the overload coefficient is unlikely to be very large, and the advantage of air mobility capability is not as prominent as that of the combat missile.
Modern advanced fighter jets all have airborne early warning radars, and as long as they are tracked and locked by the opponent's fire control radar, the radar will automatically warn, so the fighter will never be ignorant when it is targeted by a missile. The main means of defense against medium-range interception missiles are electronic countermeasures and active jamming. China's level of electronic warfare is somewhat worse than that of the United States, and it also has the advanced level in the world.
To defend against medium-range interception missiles, the secondary means is mobile evasion. Among the fourth- and fifth-generation fighters of China, these advanced fighters, by using some jamming means (electronic deception, radiating false targets) and flying skills (sideways, rolling, flying close to the ground, and suddenly rising), should have half a chance to evade the enemy's medium-range interception missiles.
The effective range of the most advanced AIM-120C medium-range interceptor missile in the US military is about 80 kilometers, the speed is Mach 4, and it usually attacks enemy aircraft within 30 kilometers, and the hit rate can reach about 70%. If the speed of the enemy aircraft exceeds Mach 2, the missile hit rate will be lower.
But the American air combat medium-range attack tactics were flawed, that is, against advanced fighters, the hit rate was low.
There has never been a real air battle that is evenly matched, and although many of the performance of European and American fighters have been reflected, a large part of the defects have also been exposed in the eyes of these aviation pilots of the Red Guard Corps.
The wingman, Lieutenant Lin Shanxi, was so angry that he cursed, and tried to lock on to the target twice, but he was suddenly accelerated or rolled sideways by this damn brute, and after disengaged, he couldn't help but scold: "Damn, this guy must be an old bird." ”
Captain Blue Eagle didn't know that it was this F-16 fighter that had just launched a "Strange Snake" close-range combat missile from Israel, which blew up Blue Eagle 19 into a fireball. And immediately got out of the way of the attack route, swooped down from the side position, and bit himself straight to the belly of the F-16 that had also just disemboweled.
If it weren't for the wingman's Lin Shanxi to issue an alarm, maybe the Black Hawk fighter would have crashed into the desert at this time, or it would have become a fireball. Because this F-16 did not use missile mode to attack at all, but chose to use the cannon to 'secretly calculate' that it was turning on the afterburner to avoid the wreckage and fire of the oncoming Western Knight's F-16.
When the captain Blue Eagle heard the wingman's Lin Shanxi exclaim, he instinctively pressed down the nose of the plane, rolled down sideways, and almost at the same time, a long shuttle tracer bullet flew in front of the nose of the plane, until the stars disappeared into the night.
Captain Blue Eagle let out a cold sweat. This guy isn't just an old bird, he's a fucking super old bird. In such an entangled battle situation, he actually chose to use a machine gun, which is so fucking cunning, even the captain Blue Eagle has to admire. If you choose to use missiles, then the radar warning will alert the pilot to the incoming target, but the use of cannons is different, the radar warning does not have the slightest movement, and a fighter that has completed the attack and is changing course is the best hunting target.
The Blue Eagle is not ignorant of the strength of its opponents, and the most terrifying thing about the F-16 is not the missiles mounted on its weapons hardpoints under the fuselage, wingtips, and wings. The Sidewinder medium-range bomb is of course very good, but the missile is only a missile after all, and if it leaves the launch rail, there is a way to deal with it. But with excellent maneuverability and good pilots, it's not easy to deal with. Because the contest with missiles is nothing more than a confrontation between humans and artificial intelligence, and the latter is a typical air knight-style duel.
Almost all F-16 single-seat models are equipped with two M61A1 Vulcan 20mm aircraft guns produced by Defa Company, with 511 rounds of ammunition in reserve, which can cooperate with radar and computers to calculate the front angle, and have an effective range of about 1000 meters. This is a single-barrel, 5-chamber rotary cannon with an initial velocity of 820 m/s and a rate of fire of 1100-1800 rounds per minute, which is indeed a relatively lethal aviation cannon.
"Yankees are so fucking cunning!" Looking at the F-16 that had become his target at the moment, Lin Shanxi, the wingman, was obviously dissatisfied with the other party's frequent acceleration and maneuvering rolling. In Lin Shanxi's view, Lao Tzu is locked, and it is normal to get out of the lock by maneuvering, while other people's dying struggles will make him very unhappy. Trump, a little weird temper.
Compared with Lin Shanxi's annoyance, the captain Lan Ying seemed much more mature at this time, the other party was obviously a good skill, just looking at the series of maneuvers at this time, he knew that Lu Dao was not idle. Not to mention that moment of horror just now. Thinking about the scenes just now, the captain Lan Ying was still drenched in cold sweat. Captain Blue Eagle is the kind of person who has always believed in his skills, but today he felt that luck had also favored him.
As soon as he got rid of a long list of machine shells, the Black Hawk fighter immediately rolled over and made a broken S maneuver, trying to get rid of the ghost-like F-16 fighter behind it, but the opponent was still staring at him like a killing god. (To be continued......)
