Chapter 1 A New Era of Non-Nuclear Weapons

Four thugs on May 7, Oslo, Norway. On both sides of the road leading to the airport, there were protesters with excited expressions, shouting anti-war slogans in their mouths and holding anti-war slogans in their hands. As the police cars approached, the crowd became more and more agitated, and some even tried to break through the wall of riot police, and others took out tomatoes and rotten eggs that had been prepared long ago. The police car whizzed past, but the convoy following behind turned at the previous intersection and did not follow the original route to the airport.

When the car drove onto the viaduct, Jiao Yushan breathed a sigh.

Seeing the nervous look of the secretary, Wang Yuanqing shook his head with a smile and said, "It seems that I am really not popular." ”

Jiao Kuishan was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Wang Yuanqing meant.

"Perhaps, I should have received that award."

"Meta, before you"

"I'm just kidding, a million crowns is not a small amount of money, but it can't make me lose Jizhi." Wang Yuanqing smiled and said, "However, this also proves once again that the Nobel Peace Prize is a political prize, and it is not awarded to those who have really contributed to peace, but a stage for politicians to put on a show."

Of course, the Royal Norwegian Academy has given me this honor, which shows that the concept of our country has changed significantly. ”

Jiao Kuishan smiled bitterly and didn't say anything.

A few months ago, when the Royal Norwegian Academy announced that the Nobel Peace Prize laureate in the year of phenol was Yuan Qing, the head of the Republic, even Jiao Kuishan was taken aback. Although the Royal Norwegian Academy cited three reasons: First, Wang Yuanqing announced the disarmament of the Republic of China at the beginning of the year. The reduction of military strength to 10,000 thugs has opened the prelude to a new round of global disarmament; The second is the complete withdrawal of troops from India, and by the end of the calendar year, all combat units except for the engineering troops that helped India in its post-war reconstruction have been withdrawn from India; Third, it took the lead in making a commitment at the International Conference on Nuclear Disarmament that, in the event of a global nuclear disarmament agreement, the Republic will destroy the gills of existing nuclear weapons before the end of the knife year, and only retain the nuclear warheads. These three actions have made significant contributions to the cause of peace for mankind. But in anyone's opinion, Wang Yuanqing is not eligible for the Nobel Peace Prize; Disarmament is a major international trend, the main purpose of which is to reduce the Republic's defense expenditures; The withdrawal of troops from India is also a general trend, and the main purpose remains to reduce defense spending; Nuclear disarmament is the general trend, and even a reduction in half of the nuclear warheads will have little impact on the strategic deterrent forces of the Republic. To paraphrase the comments of certain Western news media, especially American news media. The Royal Norwegian Academy awarded the Nobel Peace Prize to the war maniac who caused two wars and buried many Japanese and tens of millions of Indians. It has completely turned the Nobel Peace Prize into a bad mood.

Whatever the motives of the Western news media, the Royal Norwegian Academy announced the Nobel Peace Prize laureate and world public opinion was in an uproar.

In Jiao Weishan's opinion, Wang Yuanqing was also shocked when he received the news.

After careful consideration, Wang Yuanqing rejected the Nobel Peace Prize, but did not refuse to go to Oslo to express his gratitude to the Nobel Peace Prize selection committee. In fact, in his thank-you speech, Wang Yuanqing personally rejected the prize worth 1 million crowns and said that he was not eligible for the Nobel Peace Prize.

This move once again caused an uproar in global public opinion.

When the Western news media accused Wang Yuanqing of "putting on a show," many neutral media that had been silent before compared Wang's approach with that of US President Japel when he received the Nobel Peace Prize years ago, and finally came to the conclusion that the US president was better at putting on a show.

In any case, Wang Yuanqing's refusal of the Nobel Peace Prize can be regarded as a "feat."

You know, Wang Yuanqing is the first "Chinese" to receive such an honor.

When he arrived at the airport, Wang Yuanqing's mood had calmed down a lot.

An award is nothing, because winning this award does not prove his contribution to the republic. As the head of the republic, Wang Yuanqing only needs to be responsible for the republic, not the whole world. At least in Wang Yuanqing's view, the republic has not yet assumed the obligation of human peace. One million kroner is nothing, and as the leader of the country, Wang Yuanqing will not think about money at all, at least in his lifetime, the state will bear all his living expenses. If he cannot contribute to the country, the nation, and the people, even if he wins the Nobel Peace Prize, he will not be able to change history and the people's evaluation of him.

In Wang Yuanqing's view, the next thing to be born is the most critical.

A few hours later, Wang Yuanqing's "Republic Air Force No. 1" special plane arrived at Heathrow International Airport in Lunjiao.

There were no demonstrators, only officials sent by the British government to greet him.

On 8 July, the London Conference on International Nuclear Disarmament was officially convened.

It can be said that the International Conference on Nuclear Disarmament is the most important and the most difficult conference in the history of mankind. From the convening of the four to the preliminary agreement reached at the end of the year, it took the whole year. During this year, not only did the largest regional war since World War II break out, but the conference was interrupted several times. It was not until the end of the calendar year, when the war in India ended, that the International Conference on Nuclear Disarmament, with the active promotion of the Republic and the United States, entered the fast lane again.

In July, a number of participating countries in the International Conference on Nuclear Disarmament reached a collective consensus on nuclear disarmament.

The total destruction of nuclear weapons is not only related to the safety of all mankind, but also a major responsibility entrusted by history, and only by comprehensively destroying nuclear weapons can we ensure the safety of the human world, and can we also actively promote the development of human society, and all countries have the obligation to make positive contributions.

It seems that this consensus is not very binding.

In fact, it is true that it is not very binding, but in the long run, this consensus addresses one of the major issues of international nuclear disarmament, namely, the legal basis for nuclear disarmament.

Prior to this, the legal basis for nuclear disarmament had been questioned because there was no consensus among countries on the basic purpose and fundamental meaning of nuclear disarmament. For example, Russia has always insisted that the total elimination of nuclear weapons will not only fail to ensure peace and stability in the human world, but will aggravate the turbulent situation in the human world and cause even more serious disasters. From a certain point of view, Russia's view is not unreasonable, because nuclear weapons are to a large extent the cornerstone of maintaining the international pattern, and the republics and the United States, which actively advocate the destruction of nuclear weapons, not only possess about 70 percent of the world's nuclear weapons, but also possess the most powerful conventional military forces and strategic defense forces. In the eyes of the vast majority of Russians, without nuclear weapons, Russia would not have any strength to resist the world's most powerful army, and its national security would not be guaranteed. In addition, France has always opposed the total elimination of nuclear weapons, which are the foundation of France's status as a political and diplomatic power.

These factors have led to the stagnation of the International Conference on Nuclear Disarmament.

It wasn't until the end of the war in India that Ran took a turn.

First, the Republic announced a large-scale disarmament and reduced the strength of the army from Gouwan to Kouwan. This move reassured Russia that the threat to Russia was much smaller than that of the Liwan Army. Subsequently, the United States announced that it would disarm 80,000 troops on the existing basis, and reduce the army, navy, air force, and marine corps by 30,000, 20,000, 20,000, and 10,000 fighters respectively. By the end of February, countries had followed the international trend and declared disarmament.

The second is that the strategic defense systems of the Republic and the United States are fully capable of actual combat.

While in the Indian war. The Republic's national strategic defense system did not get a chance to perform, but with the completion of the third phase of construction with a global coverage capability, mainly space-based interception systems, the Republic's national strategic defense capability has reached a new height. According to the relevant information released by the Ministry of National Defense of the Republic in March 202, the national strategic defense system of the Republic has the ability to intercept flying targets at the same time, and together with the theater and tactical defense systems, it is sufficient to resist the largest strategic nuclear strike.

The US National Missile Defense system has also been completely upgraded in its early years, and a comprehensive defense network has been established with space-based interception systems as the mainstay. Although the Tsai Pentagon has not released relevant performance data, according to outside estimates, the US NMD system is capable of intercepting at least one target at the same time, and basically has an overall strategic defense capability in conjunction with the theater and tactical interception systems.

The appearance of the shield. It means that the spear is useless.

In the past few years, the Celestial Soldiers, as an independent branch of the armed forces, were officially upgraded to the Celestial Forces, becoming the fourth branch of the Republic's national defense forces, and possessing a status equal to the land, navy, and air force. Compared to the Standalone class. The services have greater autonomy, such as applying directly to the Ministry of Defense for military budgets, having separate military bases, greater personnel autonomy, and so on. Most importantly. The services are directly subordinate to the General Staff and have a great deal of autonomy in the development of regulations.

In celebration of the Celestial Army's upgrade to the Celestial Army, the Republic conducted a strategic defense exercise of a scale rarely seen.

This exercise allowed the whole world to see the strategic defense capability of the republic. Although according to the information released by the Ministry of Defense of the Republic of China, the exercise was not aimed at a third party and was only aimed at testing the actual combat capability of the national strategic defense system of the Republic, in the eyes of outsiders, the simultaneous shooting of a strategic ballistic missile carried by the hitter Tian Mei carrying six warheads and an old decoy warhead, and then intercepting it in three stages, was not aimed at testing the actual combat capability of the national strategic defense system, but at nuclear powers like the United States and Russia, which have thousands of nuclear warheads.

The results of the exercises were extremely alarming to those who paid close attention to the national strategic defense system of the republic.

The entire exercise lasted only 10,000 minutes, and the Blade Strategic Ballistic Missile was destroyed by air-based and space-based laser interceptor weapons in the active stage, about the Wangche warhead was shot down by the space-based interception system in the middle stage, and the remaining Combat Force's warhead was shot down by the theater defense system at the end.

Strong interception ability is one aspect, and another aspect is more worthy of attention, that is, screening ability.

During the entire interception process, less than one decoy warhead was mistaken for a real warhead, that is, the interception system recognized the decoy warhead with a high rate of high accuracy. If we take into account that several decoy warheads were used in the exercises. Then in the actual interception process, the recognition rate must be much higher.

In its report to the US State Department, the RAND Corporation clearly pointed out that the national strategic defense system of the Republican Republic of China has the capability to intercept US strategic nuclear weapons, and it is being built much faster than expected. What's more. The republic has solved the main technical problems of the national strategic defense system, significantly reduced the cost of deployment, and if the strategic balance is restored by increasing the number of strategic nuclear weapons, the United States will lose more than it gains. In the report, the RAND Corporation also mentioned that in the course of the exercise, the Republic's space-based defense system will only use the interception energy and fruit war to explode in the event of early warning, and the Dian and Li Ri will definitely adjust the deployment method of the space-based defense system to concentrate on dealing with threats in a certain direction, which can at least double the interception capability.

Of course, from a different standpoint, the views on this strategic defense exercise of the Republic will be different.

When reporting the relevant news, the European news media emphasized the use of space-based laser interceptors against strategic ballistic missiles in the active stage, and from this they came to a very shocking conclusion: the national strategic defense system of the republic will become the most effective strategic strike weapon after appropriate improvements.

This conclusion is by no means groundless.

The space-based interception system can be said to be the most important component of the national strategic defense system, and it is also the part with the most potential. Although the space-based interception system is mainly used against the mid-course Japanese standard. That is, extraatmospheric ballistic missiles with warheads, but at the time of the development of space-based interception systems. The Republic, along with the United States, has strengthened its control of ballistic missiles in the active stage, that is, in the ascending stage. The reason for this is simple! If it is possible to successfully intercept ballistic missiles in the atmosphere. It is possible to develop an interception system used for defense into a strategic strike system for attack. To put it simply, there is no essential difference between intercepting a rising ballistic missile with a high-energy laser and dealing with an aircraft in the atmosphere, but the implementation process is different, and some relatively special problems need to be solved.

From any point of view, the strategic defense exercises conducted by the Republic in the 6th year of the year have yielded significant results.

It was this exercise that changed the direction of the International Conference on Nuclear Disarmament.

Placed in numerous second-rate with; The immediate point before the countries, as well as the nuclear-capable countries, is that if an international nuclear disarmament conference is not agreed, the Republic and the United States will soon have the capability to resist the global strategic nuclear threat, turning the strategic nuclear weapons of other countries into ornaments.

The religion of Japan is vivid, and the religion of India is also vivid.

With the Republic and the United States actively promoting comprehensive nuclear disarmament, other countries have little choice. According to the comments of the news media, at the latest, the Republic and the United States will establish a strategic defense system that integrates offense and defense, and they will have absolute military superiority, and whether or not to destroy nuclear weapons will not have much impact on the international situation.

This analysis is fully in line with the actual situation.

Because both the Republic's and the U.S. strategic defense systems are geared against global threats, they can defend both the homeland and allies wherever they are located. Only by following the trend and choosing to ally with one side can you get the strategic protection provided by the Republic or the United States.

In June of the previous year, Pakistan was the first to announce that it would destroy all nuclear weapons under the supervision of international organizations.

Although at the time of the announcement, Pakistan emphasized that India, as its main adversary, no longer has the capability of strategic threat, and that Pakistan's relations with India have changed dramatically, and that Barkistan no longer needs to use nuclear weapons to ensure national security, everyone knows that Barkistan has received strategic security guarantees from the Republic before making this commitment.

Pakistan took the lead in renunciating nuclear weapons and made a positive contribution to international nuclear disarmament.

July. The collective consensus on international nuclear disarmament mentioned earlier has been reached.

After nearly half a year of consultation and negotiation, many countries reached an agreement in Paris. Agree to the phased elimination of all nuclear weapons.

It was under these circumstances that Wang Yuanqing took the lead in promising that the Republic would destroy the nuclear warheads.

The so-called phased destruction of all nuclear weapons, of course. It can't happen overnight. According to the basic agreement, the entire destruction process will be divided into three stages: first, the destruction of all tactical nuclear weapons before the beginning of the year, because the Republic and the United States firmly oppose the inclusion of catalytic metal hydrogen explosive devices in the category of nuclear weapons, so it does not include the fifth generation of tactical nuclear weapons, which includes all nuclear weapons of other countries except the five nuclear powers and the reactors used to produce nuclear weapons raw materials, and the Republic and the United States have pledged to provide technical support to countries that destroy nuclear weapons and nuclear reactors to help them build controllable fusion nuclear power plants; Second, before the calendar year, the five nuclear powers destroyed their existing strategic nuclear warheads and paste-oriented strategic delivery vehicles; Finally, all nuclear warheads and strategic delivery vehicles should be destroyed by the end of the year.

Because this is only a basic agreement, a formal agreement needs to be signed by the heads of state or government.

For this reason, Wang Yuanqing went to London.

In fact, even if a formal agreement is signed by the heads of state or government, it does not mean that nuclear disarmament has officially begun, because according to the laws of most countries, the agreement does not enter into force until it is approved by parliament. Therefore, the heads of state and the government have to reach another agreement in London, that is, the effective date of the agreement on the destruction of nuclear weapons.

There is no doubt that this is a very difficult job.

According to the estimation of some Western news media, it would be very good that the agreement would take effect before the first time possible. Some news outlets even believe that the agreement will certainly not be approved by the U.S. Congress, the British Parliament, the French Parliament, or even the plenary sessions of the Republic in the face of the turmoil of international trends.

There is still a long way to go in the comprehensive elimination of nuclear weapons, but no one can stop their progress.
