Volume 13 The Moral Struggle Chapter 41-for-tat

Every time, the information that Yuan Chenhao has is not in a hurry, but it is a little clear. Since the beginning of the year, the Republic's national defense construction has not had a very clear goal, that is, to prepare for the "Sino-American War" on a huge scale, which is likely to be the third world war.

In fact, the defense construction of the United States has the same purpose.

As the chief of the Operations Division, Yuan Chenhao was able to obtain a lot of first-hand information from the Military Intelligence Bureau when formulating various operational plans, especially when he was working on operational plans related to the United States, so he also had some understanding of US national defense construction.

Compared with the Republic, the focus of the United States' national defense construction is completely different due to the influence of national conditions.

Because its strength was far inferior to that of the Republican Army, and it was completely defeated in the Middle East War, the U.S. Army was given the highest priority in the wave of military expansion in that era. In the words of Gen. Bullard, who served as Army Chief of Staff, the strength of the Army is related to the future of the United States.

You know, for a country like the United States. It is unusual to attach such great importance to the building of the army.

There is no need for the United States to maintain a strong army if it is only for the sake of homeland security. You know, even if you look at the entire American continent, no single country can pose a threat to the United States. Historically, since becoming the largest industrial nation and capable of building the number one navy, the United States has put its navy ahead of its army, and by controlling the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, it has kept the so-called threats thousands of kilometers away, if not tens of thousands of kilometers. Even after World War II, the United States replaced Britain; To become the number one power in the world, and in the face of the threat of the Red Empire, instead of putting the army in the first place, the Red Empire was firmly locked in Eurasia by building the most powerful navy in the world.

It can be said that the United States was able to replace Britain as the world hegemon, defeat the Red Empire bloodily in the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union for nearly half a century, and do its utmost to contain the republic in the years leading the century, because the United States has a unique geographical advantage, can build an army at the lowest cost, and puts more national strength on the navy and air force that have a greater influence on the national strength and the struggle between the great powers. It can even be said that in the era of the 2 thug century, the republic is still on the road to global hegemony, and has not confronted the United States on a global scale, precisely because a sufficiently strong army is needed to ensure the security of the homeland. Resources for the Navy and Air Force are grossly insufficient.

As early as the era of the gravitational century, that is, after the Republic of China established its status as a great power in the western Pacific through the East China Sea War, which had a major impact on political reform, Academician Su Xinnan, an international relations expert of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, who was elected as a representative of the National Congress, expounded on the relationship between the Republic and the United States, holding that due to the influence of geopolitics and other factors, if the Republic wants to defeat the United States through war, it must have greater patience, and only when its comprehensive national strength is twice that of the United States, can it have a chance to defeat the United States.

Although this assertion was questioned by many readers at the time, its correctness has been confirmed.

By the 8th year, the GDP of the republic was already a threat to the United States. Because the gross national product is only one of the factors that measure the overall national strength, and in the confrontation between major powers, the influence of science and technology and culture is no worse than that of the economy, so in terms of comprehensive national strength, the republic is basically twice as large as the United States when it comes to the next year. Of course, "comprehensive national strength" is a relatively vague concept, and there is no clear method for calculating it, so no one can make a conclusion about the comprehensive national strength of the Republic of China as much as the United States is. The new address of this site has been changed to: Chat about the fetal o muscle shake Shan, please read in vain!

With such a great geographical advantage, the United States is still trying its best to develop its army, which is enough to prove that the US authorities lack a sense of security.

The problem is that in the US strategic defense system, the army will always be the "second army" Strictly speaking, it is precisely because the Republic has intensified its naval construction after the year of the force and regarded the building of a "global fleet" as the main goal that the US authorities lack a sense of security and strengthen the army construction at any cost.

As a result, the position of the US Navy is a little awkward.

Although theoretically, even in the year of the eye. The United States still has the most powerful navy in the world. Because the "London Treaty" clearly defined the size of the Republic and the U.S. Navy, the maximum size of the Republic Navy must not exceed the size of the U.S. Navy, otherwise the United States has reason to stop nuclear disarmament. You know, this is a hard and fast rule that is mandatory and very detailed. Take the aircraft carrier, for example, that is, the number is regulated, and the total displacement is regulated. If the US Navy retains only the mother. In other words, neither the quantity nor the total displacement can exceed the upper limit stipulated in the treaty. But the US authorities are well aware that the Treaty of London only regulates warships that appear before yo, and not warships that appear afterward, nor the tonnage of non-combat ships.

This huge loophole is enough to turn the London Treaty into a piece of waste paper. Don't say anything else. It has been confirmed that the Navy of the Republic has used "sea platforms" in the Middle East war and is capable of opening larger "sea platforms". If only low-intensity strike missions are performed. Bu Hanneng of the "offshore platform" was able to sail and sail in the high-intensity war, and the offshore platform Langchuan was in the middle of the war. In this way, the Republic would be able to bypass the Treaty of Ethics and build a powerful navy that is definitely no less powerful than the United States, or even surpasses the United States Navy.

Whether it will be possible to seize sea supremacy in a war with the republic, the US authorities are not confident, and the US Navy is not sure.

More importantly, the United States is not very clear about the direction of the Navy. You must know that in the Middle East war, the powerful fleet with three aircraft carriers as the core was wiped out in the old minutes, and not only were all the large warships sunk, but also tens of thousands of naval officers and men were involved. The naval battle, the most intense since World War II, made the U.S. authorities aware that the direction of the Navy's development had shifted. In this way, before finding a way out. On the question of whether or not to expand the size of the Navy, the US authorities are very difficult.

It wasn't until four that the U.S. Navy started to expand its forces.

The reason is very simple: it was not until this catty that the United States made a breakthrough in the key technologies necessary for building a 10,000-ton aircraft carrier, and the new large slipways of several large factories were completed. Subject to "Chongqing." Aircraft carrier stimulation. Randes, then President of the United States, personally secured tens of billions of dollars in start-up funding for the Navy's aircraft carrier program, and when it was submitted to Congress, the Congressional Armed Services Committee doubled the cost. GE Marine was also required to participate in the design and construction work along with Northrop. Other words. The task of building the main warships of the US Navy can no longer be delayed, and new warships must be acquired as soon as possible.

Supporting the class of aircraft carriers is a number of large warship projects including cruisers, destroyers, and flagships.

Although there is intelligence to prove that in order to save money, the US Navy will still distinguish between cruisers and destroyers by matching different weapons systems on the same hull, but the military intelligence has been suspecting that the US Navy is likely to use the method of "stealing beams for pillars" to expand the scale of construction, that is, the base platform is not aimed at destroyers, but at cruisers. The republic announced the "Kunlun." After some tactical indicators of the class cruisers, the US Navy will definitely adjust the tactical indicators of large warships. Putting performance in the right place increases the displacement of the base platform to accommodate more weapon systems. It is precisely for this reason that the Navy of the Republic abandoned specialized destroyers and opened new destroyers on the basis of the "Kunlun" class.

It can be seen from this that the Republic and the US Navy have embarked on the road of large-scale competition in the competition.

It is precisely because of this that many people believe that the era of the introduction of the century is the beginning of the self-reliance century. That is, after the years before the First World War, when the naval arms race was at its worst. Because before the outbreak of the first two world wars, there was a fierce naval arms race, so many people regarded this long naval arms race as a precursor to world war, and concluded that the world war would break out in the field years.

In any case, the competition between the Navy of the Republic and the US Navy began to be easy and difficult to end.

Relatively speaking, the construction of the US Air Force is more rational.

Compared with the comprehensive transformation of the Republican Air Force, the development of the US Air Force pays more attention to real threats, that is, to improve air supremacy combat capabilities.

According to the intelligence provided by the Military Intelligence Agency, the performance of the US Air Force in the Middle East war made the US authorities very unhappy.

The reason is simple: the actual combat performance of the US Air Force is far from worthy of the trillion-dollar annual military spending.

It is precisely because of this that throughout the year, the US Air Force focused on the improvement and development of heavy air supremacy fighters, and handed over the contract for a new generation of air supremacy fighters to Loma in the year of Liming.

Although the Air Force of the Republic did not follow up and did not determine the start of the new generation of air supremacy fighters until the year of the force, but mainly focused on improving the small old fighters, the Republic Air Force supported several scientific research projects related to air supremacy fighters. For example, the miniaturization of passive radar, intelligent ammunition, magnetic induction propulsion systems, new carbon fiber composite materials, etc., so it can be used when there is a demand. In a relatively short period of time, the work of starting the air supremacy fighter was completed. As a matter of fact, the Air Force submitted to the Ministry of National Defense a report on the development of air supremacy fighters in the second year of the year, which mentioned that with the resources at the disposal of the Air Force and the country's technical reserves, it would be able to complete the work of launching air supremacy fighters and preparing for mass production within a year, and mass production would be carried out after the completion of the operation.

In this way, there is no need for the Air Force of the Republic to rush to launch a new type of air superiority fighter.

It can be seen from this that in the struggle of the state, the authorities of the republic adopted the tactic of "horse racing". Although the United States is not as invested as the Republic in the construction of the army and navy, the United States has invested more in the construction of the air force. If the military investment of the two sides is equal, then the republic can gain an advantage elsewhere. If the United States wants to confront the Republic on all key projects, it will have to invest more resources in building its military strength. Because the US authorities are well aware that war is inevitable and that it is only a matter of time before war begins, it is necessary to put national defense building in an important position, and it is necessary to invest more resources in military force building.

The point is here, will the United States be able to conquer the Republic in all areas?

The answer is obviously no, if the United States had this strength, the Republic would not have challenged the United States. The new address of this site has been changed to: Talk about the fetal o muscle see Shan, please read it in white!

In this way, as long as the United States lags behind the Republic in some extremely critical areas, and the stream is not the same as the body clams", it is said that the reading is more obvious. Then the US authorities would not have taken the initiative to provoke a war. And the fire and destruction ratio constantly consumes valuable resources in the construction of military forces, and eventually falls because of the depletion of resources. To know. In the century, the Red Empire lost to the United States in a long arms race that lasted for nearly half of the actual century, and finally collapsed and disintegrated. Other words. If the authorities of the republic can make full use of the advantages in their hands, they will be able to defeat the United States in a war without gunpowder. In fact, this is exactly what the authorities of the republic are doing in the "cold war." The biggest disagreement with the "hot war" issue, or the biggest disagreement on the national development strategy. As everyone knows, Wang Yuanqing is definitely the leader of the "hot war faction". He can even be regarded as a founder. Gu Weimin was the founder of the "Cold War faction" and provided a theoretical basis for this argument. When it was Yan Jing's turn to come to power, the "hot war faction" was in power again. and became a major force in promoting the arms race and world war.

The authorities of the republic are using the Celestial Army, which has already achieved a significant lead. The new address of this site has been changed to: Chat about the fetal o muscle shake Shan, please read in vain!

It can be said that the real shortcoming of the United States is the space army.

More importantly. The key force to promote the exhibition of the Celestial Army is not military spending, but technology. The reason is very simple: The Space Force is definitely a "technical service," and many technologies closely related to combat capability are not mature, and they do not even have the ability to popularize and apply them, and even if there is a huge investment, it will take sufficient time before it is possible to make a breakthrough in technology. To put it simply, the key factor in technological breakthroughs is time, not money.

It can be seen from this that the US authorities are not unaware of the importance of the Space Army, but they are unable to speed up the development of the Space Army.

It is precisely for this reason that the U.S. intelligence agencies are interested in the aerospace fighters of the Republican Space Force and regard them as the number one strategic threat. The question is. The US Space Force's aerospace fighters have not only failed to build a laboratory for a long time, but have not even solved many basic technical problems. In the words of military experts hired by CBS, in the field of air and space, the United States is at least a hitter behind the republics.

In any case, the shortcomings of the space force have put the United States in a very passive position in the arms race.

According to the information provided by the Military Intelligence Agency, as long as the air-space strike force of the Republican Space Force can form an actual combat capability in the middle of the fall era, the United States will completely lose the initiative in the arms race.

In Yuan Chenhao's view, this is likely to be the only way to avoid a world war.

To put it bluntly, if the Republic can make full use of its superiority in the aerospace field and force the US authorities to continuously invest huge sums of money in this field to speed up its development, it will be able to cause problems in the US economy, gradually weaken the US national strength by bloodless methods, and finally force the US authorities to voluntarily abandon their status as world hegemons. If we can combine other means, such as dismantling the US system of international alliances and making a big fuss about ideology, such as ideology and culture, we can not only attack the United States more effectively, but also accelerate the collapse of the United States. Just like Britain after the First World War, as its national strength was weakened, even if the American authorities refused to admit it, it would still be reflected in its basic strategy, and it would gradually become a second-rate country. Of course, with the basic strength of the United States, it is impossible to remain a second-rate country. In fact. A military struggle between the two powers can be avoided as long as the United States authorities are willing to accept another class of powers and share global benefits with the Republic. As Yuan Qing, the former head of the Republic, said at the celebration of the centenary of the founding of the United Nations in the second year, only when all nations and countries abandon their cultural and ideological prejudices and take the initiative to share benefits with other nations can human civilization end the reincarnation of the fate of one after the other, and usher in a bright future of common development and common progress.

As a soldier, Yuan Chenhao did not believe in the peace obtained through negotiation.

In fact, there has never been a time in history when peace was based on negotiations.

In the words of the military, peace can only be achieved if the enemy is completely defeated.

There is no doubt that Yuan Chenhao is an out-and-out member of the "hot war faction", and he is more active than others. Otherwise, he wouldn't have stayed up all night making war plans.

Sorting out the clues shows that both the Republic and the United States are preparing for war.

The question is, whether it's the Republic or the United States. Neither is prepared for war, and it can even be said that as long as both sides do not increase their investment accordingly. If military strength building is a top priority, then it will take years or even more time for both sides to complete the preparations for war.

Without a doubt, that's the biggest problem.

As we all know, the year and the calendar are definitely the "ideal window" for a world war. "Although the Republic and the United States still possess nuclear weapons capable of inflicting heavy damage on each other, as the Treaty of London enters its final stages of implementation, when the Treaty of London begins to discuss the possibility of reducing conventional military forces, both the Republic and the United States may break the treaty at the last minute, leading to a total failure of nuclear disarmament. However, the two sides do not want to see the other side break the treaty, so the side that has the strategic initiative is especially confident that it can withstand the other side's strategic attack. When the ability to fight is minimized, it will use proactive military action to defeat the opponent and ensure its own absolute security.

The key issue is that the republic holds the strategic initiative.

Whether the other party can be defeated depends on the performance of the republican ** team!
