Chapter 5 The Expectations of the People

"In the face of a powerful external threat," the coalition elected a leader who was most likely to lead the republic to victory over a strong enemy. According to the new election method, after the end of the first weekend of July, the elected will be sworn in on the last Monday of July and will be sworn in to the Constitution of the Republic in front of all delegates in the newly completed General Assembly Hall, facing the emblem of the Republic. Although it is only a ritual, it is a sacred and legally binding ritual. Still in the spotlight. When Pei Chengyi walked into the Great Hall and walked onto the podium, the reporters who were allowed to enter the interview immediately pointed their cameras at the new state president of the Republic, and the flash suddenly flashed. At this moment, many citizens of the Republic who are guarding in front of the TV, especially those who are over the age of Feng, will think of Wang Yuanqing, who made the Republic look new, and became the head of the country under the watchful eye of the people. Although Pei Chengyi has many differences in guiding Wang Yuanqing, such as one is from the military, the other has nothing to do with the army, one is unrestrained and heroic, and the other is cautious and steady, but no matter who they are, what they see is what the two have in common, the young man is famous, the iron-fisted style and so on. It is these characteristics that can be flaunted that make people associate Pei Chengyi with Wang Yuanqing, and some people even think that Pei Chengyi will become the second Wang Yuanqing.

For many Western countries, Wang Yuanqing became famous not by political reform, but by the war between Japan.

You must know that Wang Yuanqing was the first to start a war at the beginning of his term of office, almost uprooting Japan, which has the world's third largest economic strength and a population of hundreds of millions. Although there is no such feud or long-cherished enemy as Japan in the vicinity of the republic, the republic at this moment is facing the cold north wind. Not to mention the suspicious Western news media, even the news media of many republics are worried that Pei Chengyi will take the Russian sacrifice flag after taking office. Considering Pei Chengyi's military background and his role in the republic's interest groups, some people have long worried that Pei Chengyi will follow and even surpass Wang Yuanqing back then.

It is precisely in this way that on the last Monday of the month, the New Capital Hall of the Republic became the focus of the world.

Under the flashing lights, Pei Chengyi, who was dressed in a set of untitled summer clothes, saluted a standard military salute to all the delegates from all over the country and all walks of life.

In an instant, the synagogue fell silent, except for the light that was still flickering silently.

Outside the venue, the whole world fell silent at this time.

According to post-mortem statistics, in the Republic alone, 10,000 people watched Bae Seung-yi's inaugural speech, and about 100 million viewers around the world watched the live broadcast after the opening ceremonies of the Summer Olympics and the Football World Cup every year. Objectively speaking, Pei Chengyi's appointment as the head of the republic is by no means just a matter of the republic. As allies of the Republic, all members and associate members of the Intensive Group will be affected. As hostile countries of the Republic, the United States and the members of the Western Treaty Group will also be affected. Even if it's the EU, Brazil, South Africa, Egypt, etc

When watching news programs, the audience has a question in their minds.

That is, whether Pei Chengyi will formally declare war on Russia on the oath of office, or make a similar declaration.

Although such a thing has never been born in the republic, even Wang Yuanqing back then declared war on Japan after officially becoming the state of the republic, but almost everyone believes that Pei Chengyi is a leader who is a hundred times tougher than Wang Yuanqing, a leader who is more daring to act, and a maverick leader, so it is possible to do shocking things.

In fact, during the old years of politics as Minister of National Defense, Deputy Prime Minister for Security and Vice Yuan of Beng, Pei Chengyi did a lot of shocking things, and many of them are still incomprehensible.

For example, during his tenure as defense minister from Likou to Yenian, Pei Chengyi advised Gu Weimin three times in a row not to include Iraq and Syria in the intensive group, and it eventually produced results. By the end of the following year, when Pei Chengyi was elected president, neither of these two Middle Eastern countries was a full member of the Intensive Group. Although it seems that Pei Chengyi's proposal is indeed very meaningful now, in any case, Iraq and Syria are Arab countries first, and the intensive bloc does not exclude Islamic countries, but it is impossible to truly absorb Arab countries and thus become hostile forces for the great cause of the unification of the Arab world. You must know that even at the beginning of the century, the United States did not allow any Arab countries to join the political and military alliance led by the United States, and at most only signed alliance treaties with a few Arab countries alone. But at the time, Pei Chengyi's suggestion really made people feel incredible. According to the vast majority of people's thinking, the Republic of Gang helped Syria defeat the invading US-Israeli coalition and helped Iraq solve the Kurdish problem, and its influence in the Middle East and the Arab world is growing, and it is not an exaggeration to take advantage of the situation to recruit the two countries into the intensive bloc.

If it is said that when he was the Minister of Defense, it was just a small test, then in the position of Deputy Prime Minister for Security, many of Pei Chengyi's actions are even more difficult to understand. For example, in the year of Yo, Pei Chengyi let a number of military clothes that lasted for several to more than ten years and cost hundreds of millions to hundreds of billions of yuan to dismount.

The most representative is the infrastructure project jointly invested by the Air Force and the Space Force. According to the official information released by the Republic, the Han project was originally used to replace the Couple project, led by the Air Force, with the improvement of the technical level, especially several key technologies have been solved, the sprinkle project has become an air and space fighter project jointly developed by the Air Force and the Space Force. If everything goes well, the first air-space fighter with complete combat capability will be developed by the next year at the latest. As far as the arms race that is raging is concerned, if the Republic is able to equip the first type of aerospace fighter, it is very likely that it will gain a strategic advantage in 2 Western years and take the United States by surprise.

The problem is that Pei Chengyi canceled the project in the year of arsenic, and after more than a year, it was restarted at the beginning of the year. of the Aerospace Fighter Development Project.

In the eyes of many people, this is tantamount to wasting nearly two years of the Republic's aerospace fighter development project. Although some people look at the overall situation of the Republic's war preparations, that is, they cannot complete all the preparations in the year of Li Calcium, and find reasons for Pei Chengyi to deliberately delay the development of the aerospace fighter project, the relationship between the aerospace fighter project and the war preparation work is that of inclusion and inclusion, that is, the aerospace fighter project is only a part of the war preparation work, and the completion of the development work ahead of schedule is not harmful to the war preparations, and there is no reason why the development should be successfully developed until the moment before the war breaks out. There are also other reasons to find it. They all seem pale and weak, so many people think that Pei Chengyi has made a big mistake on this issue.

Because when Pei Chengyi became the vice premier of security, Yan Jingyu had already come to power, and in Yan Jingyu's first term, he was partnered with the former governor of Liaoning Province, that is to say, the vice minister of the country has no real power, just a decoration, and Yan Shanglong, who is in charge of the work of the State Council, is only in charge of foreign affairs and never asks about security issues, so Pei Chengyi has become the number one person in charge of security, and has an unshirkable responsibility for the national defense construction of the republic, which also laid the foundation for him to later serve as vice president and continue to be responsible for security work.

It is precisely for this reason that there was no major change in the national defense policy of the Republic during the period from the year of the knife to the old year.

As seen by the outside world, in these old years, the Republic has been preparing for war, and the supreme person in charge is Pei Chengyi, not Yan Jingyu, who lives in the Yuan Mansion. Exactly. The outside world will believe that as a majestic leader, Pei Chengyi will never be willing to be lonely. Just like on the battlefield on the peninsula back then, if you don't make a hit, it's just a blockbuster. It is not surprising for a leader who is a soldier to go to war at the beginning of his tenure. More importantly, because this is the first direct election of the republic, in the six months from the beginning of the month of the year to the end of June, Pei Chengyi traveled to all the provinces of the republic, as well as all large and medium-sized cities, like the leaders of Western countries, to win the support of voters through a speech tour before the election. In other words, during this period, Pei Chengyi must come up with a governing program that has appeal and can make voters vote for him, and his governing program is to take "security" as the core and defend the interests of the country and the nation as his own responsibility. Thinking of the military coup in Kazakhstan that occurred in the first half of the previous year, and Russia's insistence on going its own way, almost everyone thinks that Pei Chengyi will take Russia as a knife.

In terms of evaluation, when he was ugly, Pei Chengyi, who was only a colonel in the Republic Army, was able to command hundreds of thousands of troops to sweep across the Korean Peninsula, encircle and annihilate the United States and South Korea, and cut off South Korea. If you take into account the comprehensive leap in the national strength of the Republic during this witch year, Pei Chengyi has no worries.

In this regard, the deletion also made a detailed analysis to determine whether the republic had the ability to "destroy Russia in World War I."

The first thing to consider is definitely not the vast territory of Russia. You must know that during the Indian War, the Republic Army, which had just achieved lightening of the Net, proved that the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, which has the highest altitude and the most extensive area in the world, could not stop the offensive pace of the ground forces, and during the Middle East War, the Republic Army, which had already achieved air-space, proved that distance was no longer a natural strategic barrier. If we take into account that after the occupation of the Middle East War, the Republic Army carried out a series of reforms, and even the main battle equipment was changed, no one would think that the huge strategic depth could become a strong basis for Russia to confront and defeat the republic.

Objectively speaking, the first thing the republic has to consider is Russia's strategic strike force, that is, nuclear weapons.

Because, according to the verification at the end of the second phase of reduction, all the nuclear warheads that have not been destroyed by the nuclear powers will be centrally managed, and the storage locations will be declared to the other nuclear powers, so the tens of thousands of nuclear warheads in Russia's stockpile are basically no threat to the republic, and in any case, if the republic wants to attack Russia, it will certainly carry out a strategic strike on Russia's nuclear arsenal at the first time, or when Russia uses its stockpile of nuclear weapons.

In this way, the only thing that can really come in handy in Russia's strategic strike force is that in accordance with the treaty, the second nuclear warhead and the strategic delivery of powerful parts should be eliminated in the third stage. Well. Russia also has three strategic nuclear submarines, each carrying capable submarine-launched strategic ballistic missiles, a bladed strategic bomber each carrying an air-launched cruise missile, and a powerful land-based strategic ballistic missile deployed in a fixed silo. The rest of the masonry is deployed in a mobile manner. Among these delivery vehicles, the only real threat is the ballistic missiles that are maneuverably deployed by strategic nuclear submarines and six strategic missile brigades.

Because Russia will transfer all its strategic nuclear submarines to the Northern Fleet after the completion of the second phase of reduction, there is no need to worry about Russia's strategic nuclear submarines even if the Republic is unable to send attack submarines to the Arctic Ocean and the North Atlantic. The reason is very simple, the sub-orbital interception system and the ground interception system of the Republic of China can intercept the incoming missiles and nuclear warheads, increase the success rate of interception to above, and can intercept thousands of targets at the same time, while Russia's strategic nuclear submarines can only project nuclear warheads and false targets at most, and do not have the ability to break through the strategic defense system of the Republic. In fact, the object of threat to Russia's strategic nuclear submarines was not the republics in the first place, but Britain, France and the United States, which were close to their support.

Other words. In fact, the republic only needs to worry about the mobile deployment of strategic ballistic missiles in Russia.

According to the provisions of the treaty, in the second phase of the reduction, all mobile deployed strategic ballistic missiles of Russia can carry only one warhead, that is, they are deployed as single-warhead missiles. Although there is no limit to the number of decoys in the treaty, that is, Russia can take advantage of the treaty to increase the penetration efficiency of real warheads by increasing the number of decoy warheads. In fact, several nuclear powers have done this, drastically increasing the number of decoy warheads while reducing real warheads. But young strategic ballistic missiles can only project concave at best. warheads, and the republic's strategic defense system facing Russia is capable of intercepting thousands of incoming targets in the first place. According to the relevant data released by the Republic, even in the face of strategic ballistic missiles with the ability to change orbit maneuver, the strategic defense system of the Republic can intercept incoming targets in stages, and the first interception alone can destroy thousands of targets.

Because the interception was against the delivery vehicle. and not warheads, so it is a question whether Russia's more than 200 strategic ballistic missiles can leave the atmosphere.

All in all. In the case that the United States is not sure of breaking through the strategic defense system of the republic, Russia, which is much worse than the United States in strength, is certainly even less sure.

According to outside speculation, if Russia wants to maintain a strategic threat to the republic, it can only take advantage of the loopholes of the treaty.

The most obvious is the fact that the treaty does not impose any restrictions on the fifth generation of tactical nuclear weapons, that is, new bombs with catalytic metal hydrogen as explosives, and that a large number of tactical weapons are equipped with extremely powerful tactical weapons, so that the republic must think twice when it sends troops to invade Russia.

In fact, Russia is doing just that.

The problem is that the Republic was the first to convert the internuclear energy of catalytic metal ammonia into a war force and used it aggressively during the Indian War. Even if Russia has mastered the relevant technology, the republic should have mastered the relevant countervailing technology, making the weapon of power useless.

It can be seen from this that whether the republic will meet Russia in arms is not a military issue, but a political one.

Although no one thinks that Yan Jingyu is a weak national leader, only that he is a leader with bad luck, but in the eyes of more people, Yan Jingyu did not face Russia in the past years, not because the time is not ripe, but because his term of office is coming to an end, and the war against Russia is unlikely to end before he leaves office, so he has to leave this arduous task to the next national leader, and thus promote Pei Chengyi's candidacy. In fact, this is just like in the Western Year, Zhao Rundong suddenly changed his mind and pushed Wang Yuanqing to the position of the national yuan. At that time, after Wang Yuanqing took office, he launched the war against Japan with lightning speed and defeated Japan in one fell swoop. Now, Pei Chengyi has no reason to drag it out, and he can start a war against Russia as soon as he takes office.

Of course, it's the same to think about the problem a little bit.

As we all know, before and after, Russia turned to the United States, became a quasi-ally of the United States, and repeatedly joined forces with the United States to elbow the republic. Without the covert support of the United States, Russia would not have dared to brazenly send troops to Kazakhstan, nor would it have been possible to plot a military coup d'état in Kazakhstan. All in all, the fact that the birth in Kazakhstan is actually controlled by the United States behind the scenes, just like the birth of the year of milk on the South Asian subcontinent. In this way, the republic's declaration of war on Russia is tantamount to the beginning of a world war.

Since it is a world war, it is necessary to consider whether the war preparations of the republic are in place.

If two years ago, the leaders of the republic would have had some concerns. Then, with the situation in the second half of the next year, the leaders of the republic will not have so many worries.
