Chapter 522: The Chang'e Project

"John, we are friends, I can tell you very directly, I have no intention of confronting the United States, it is Ike who has been forcing me, I have to respond, although these responses may be a little more violent, in essence, it is still just a kind of self-defense counterattack to protect their own interests, just like friends clash with each other and fist each other, but they will never stab each other.

I am the leader of a country with a population of 50 million, and I must safeguard the interests of the people of my own country, even if a friend infringes on the interests of the Ming Dynasty, I must say no to him.

But friends are still friends. ”

Yang Feng told Kennedy that there was no doubt that the latter would be elected as the next president, and that although the general election would not begin until next year, as the brightest political star in the Democratic Party, he had no real opponent inside or outside the party, and Nixon was like a duck standing in front of a peacock compared to him.

In this way, after taking office, they must first test the relationship between Ming and the United States, after all, no matter how you look at it now, the two countries are constantly rubbing the spark.

Kennedy very much hopes to have the most frank communication with Yang Feng to see if the two sides can reach a compromise with each other, so as not to continue to toss this guy after he comes to power, the reason why Eisenhower was evaluated as the worst president in history by the media of the United States is largely because Yang Feng is constantly messing with him, Kennedy does not want to follow in his footsteps, and when necessary, he is still willing to use some kind of acceptable compromise in exchange for Akemi to restore friendship, in the final analysis, the United States will not be able to stand it if the confrontation continues.

"Your Excellency, can we talk about some more specific issues, such as Annan?"

Kennedy said with a smile.

"Annan is yours, and I won't fight with you. As long as you don't evacuate on your own initiative. It will always be yours. I have no interest in changing the status quo in Annam, but if you take the initiative to withdraw from it and become Nguyen Ai Pat's territory, I will have to take it back, I can accept it in your hands, but it is impossible to accept it in Nguyen Pat's hands. ”

Yang Feng said very directly.

"What about the Wa Kingdom?"

"The kingdom of the Japanese is also yours, I have not fought with you in the past, and I will not fight with you now, and I will not fight with you in the future. But if the Social Workers attack Honshu, you have to give me Kyushu, because I have to be prepared for the worst that may occur, and if you can't keep the Japanese country, then I will not allow it to fall into the hands of the Soviets, and I can promise you that I only want Kyushu and I will not touch any other place, and in return, I will send troops to help you fight against the Social Workers. ”

Yang Feng said.

"And what about the Middle East?"

"The status quo. A strong Saracen nation is not in the interest of any of us, and I wonder why Ike would have to keep Nexid. The country has an almost inexhaustible supply of crude oil, and the Hawabi are the most die-hard of them all, and the country has shown great ambition before. At that time they did not have money, but now they are starting to have money, they can arm their army with the most modern weapons, and then they will find that you have too little oil for them, and they will feel that nationalization is in their interest. Even they will find out that oil is also their weapon, and when the rice country imports 100 million tons of crude oil from them every year, as long as they shut down the oil pipeline, there will be an earthquake in the rice economy.

At this time, the rice country must obey their will in certain situations.

But now this country can never be, because they no longer have such qualifications, so I divide Najd into the good for all of us, and it is also very good for you to keep Najd weak. If you're worried about what I think about the crude oil there, then I can make a formal commitment here that as long as Chevron is still the owner of Aramco, this will never happen, and I certainly don't want another ban on crude oil exports to Daming. ”

"Well, Your Excellency, I think we have been very honest."

Kennedy said, holding up his glass.

In his opinion, Yang Feng didn't want much, the Middle East was already a fait accompli, and Annan could be regarded as a clear division of spheres of influence between the two sides, and all that was left was to ask for an extra island of Kyushu, but then again, it was under the premise that the Social Workers Party hit Honshu Island, and it was really a good business to exchange Kyushu Island for Yang Feng to send troops to fight......

That's not what the United States needs to worry about, not to mention that even if Kyushu Island is not given to Yang Feng, this country will also have to be divided.

In this way, the two reached a tacit understanding, of course, Kennedy would definitely not tell Ike about this kind of thing, and he had to continue to watch Yang Feng press Ike and the Democratic Party into the quagmire, the more unlucky the latter, the brighter his future, and from this point he and Yang Feng are allies. This time he came on vacation as a private person, because it looks more modern than the United States, coupled with the charming tropical scenery, Yang Feng's idol effect, Daming's tourism industry is also very developed, and a large number of European and American tourists often come here for a vacation. In particular, taking the high-speed rail around Borneo for more than 3,000 kilometers has become the most sought-after popular tourist project.

In fact, they are now sitting on Yang Feng's private train.

The train was custom-made by himself, and the white bullet train was like a jetliner with no wings, with a total of nine carriages, an internal living room, bedrooms, a dining room, guest rooms and even a swimming pool, like a moving palace. Outside, a golden dragon is depicted dancing at speeds of up to 300 kilometers per hour, and it looks like a living dragon flying close to the ground from a distance on the long high-speed railway. The skin and frame of the carriage are completely made of titanium alloy, even the window glass is bulletproof, and the four walls are made of airbags, even if the car rolls over at a speed of 300 kilometers per hour, it can ensure the maximum safety of the passengers inside.

The two were talking, Yang Feng's little secretary walked in, took a document to Yang Feng to sign, and then turned around and walked out.

"Your Excellency, what do you think of your compatriots in the North."

Kennedy asked, looking at her back.

The CIA takes special care of the people around Yang Feng, according to intelligence, this little girl is still the daughter of a high-ranking official, but her father doesn't know where to be thrown away now, and later with the help of her father's comrades-in-arms, the family boarded the Empire to the south. Yang Feng's special interaction with Comrade Li has always been a problem for the US government, and what they are most afraid of is that these two people will join forces, and the science and technology of the Ming Dynasty and the resources and manpower of Xinhua will instantly become the hegemon of the world.

"They, how to say, John, if I don't say ten years, they will go to war with the Soviets, do you believe it?"

Yang Feng said.

"Führer, are you kidding? It is true that there have been some problems on both sides recently, but this does not really destroy this alliance, as far as I know, the Soviets are even ready to sell them MiG-21 fighters, Styx missiles, help them make SAM-2 surface-to-air missiles, and even the atomic bomb is helping them to make it, I don't see the possibility of this alliance really splitting up. ”

Kennedy said.

"Many years ago I predicted what would happen between them, and I still trust my judgment."

Yang Feng said like a god.

Since he said so, Kennedy could not hold on any longer.

"Führer, the Soviets' Luna-2 arrived on the moon, but the radio was damaged when it hit the moon, so it didn't send much information back, but the Soviets are ready to launch Luna-3 soon."

Hu Hao suddenly walked into the room and said.

"It seems that the bald man is making rapid progress!"

Yang Feng looked at Kennedy with some meaning.

The rapid development of the Soviet people's moon program is the most stimulated by the United States, and now aerospace technology has become the most important symbol of national strength, and the only thing that the United States public opinion can maintain a sense of superiority in front of the Ming is that they already have their own satellites, and the Ming is still seriously backward in this regard. But it is a pity that their superiority was mercilessly slapped by the Soviets, the first artificial satellite was launched by the Soviets, the first lunar exploration satellite was launched by them, and now it is they who are the first to send an artificial vehicle to the moon.

The United States, on the other hand, has only one ordinary satellite.

"Your Excellency, it's just a small satellite of a few hundred kilograms, and if you can send humans to the moon, that's the real capability."

Kennedy said with a shrug.

"Landing on the moon? Don't you say, it's a great initiative, you know? In our mythology, there is a fairy who lives in the palace of the moon, and she took the elixir and flew directly from the earth to the moon, maybe we humans in the real world can actually accomplish this miracle. Help me write it down, and when I get back, get some scientists to argue and see how much thrust it would take for a rocket to get a manned vehicle to the moon and then get them back from the moon. If it is technically possible, then add a lunar exploration project to next year's budget, and as for the name of the project, it is called the Chang'e program, what is the big deal about the Soviets smashing a small satellite on the moon? Let's send people up and fly back again, we will build a lunar base in the future, and then we will land on Mars in the future! ”

Yang Feng said to Hu Hao with a sudden excitement.

Don't say it's good, even Kennedy is stupid, the two looked at Yang Feng dumbfounded, and they actually forgot to speak for a while.

"Look at what? Don't you understand? ”

Yang Feng glared at Hu Hao very dissatisfiedly and said.

The latter swallowed with some difficulty, and quickly turned around and went out.

"John, if it weren't for you reminding me that I would have almost forgotten, the moon landing, what a great plan this is, to let human footsteps set foot on the moon, let mankind officially start the era of interstellar travel, what better way to show a country's aerospace strength?"

Yang Feng continued to say to Kennedy with excitement.

The latter laughed as if he were crying. (To be continued.) )
