Volume 6 The Storm of War Chapter 26 Secret Deals

Rundong sent the guests out, and Pan Yunsheng and Li Cunxun made eye contact......

Li Cunxun's proposal is not only feasible, but also of great practical significance. There are many cases in which the intelligence community, because of the needs of national interests, cannot achieve its goals through formal channels, so it has to resort to covert operations or covert transactions, such as the "Iran-Contra scandal" of that year.

Such actions have one thing in common: they must be endorsed or tacitly acquiesced in by the country's top leaders.

Because the trade is "top secret" that is closely related to the fundamental interests of the state, the intelligence services do not have the power to make claims, and must obtain authorization from the country's top leaders.

Zhao Rundong returned to the study, and Pan Yunsheng made a few cups of tea again.

"Xiao Pan, you're quite unkind."

"Lao Zhao, do I need to be polite to you?" Pan Yunsheng smiled and said, "I thought about it, and Xiao Li's suggestion is worth exploring. ”

Zhao Rundong sat down on the sofa. "I thought so too, so I left you alone."

Liu Xiaobin touched his partner, and Li Cunxun was not excited at all. The key is to make recommendations, but to act.

"I thought about it for a while and thought it was operable." Zhao Rundong picked up the teacup, pondered for a while, and said, "There are two key points, one is whether the United States is willing to exchange technology with us, and the other is what technology to exchange with the United States. These two problems are spread out, and there are many detailed problems that need to be solved. For example, what kind of demands will the United States put forward after entering the substantive negotiation stage; After the negotiations, in what way to exchange; How can we ensure that while we get American technology, our technology will not fall into the hands of the United States, and so on. ”

"That's exactly what we need to solve." Pan Yunsheng picked up a cigarette. Hehe smiled. Put the cigarette down. "The first question doesn't need to be considered. As long as we come up with key technologies that the United States does not have and that are urgently needed. The United States will definitely trade with us. The second question is very complex. It is very likely that the United States will ask us to provide detailed technical information on the composite battery. Because the United States has mastered the production technology of composite batteries. Although much further behind us. The process is also much more complex. But the United States has a base. So we can't deceive the United States in the same way that we deceive Japan. Let's put it more seriously. Even if we offer the simplest production technology. With the scientific and technological strength of the United States. On this basis, the yield and quality of composite batteries can be improved. Because the production technology of composite batteries is closely related to metal hydrogen catalysts. So the U.S. will use the technology we provide for other areas. One know-it-all. The stakes are much greater than we can realize. ”

Zhao Rundong let out a long breath. Ponder.

"Can you do anything while you are swapping places?"

Pan Yunsheng glanced at Liu Xiaobin. Then he smiled and shook his head.

"There's zero chance of manipulating in trading." Li Cunxun raised his head. Said. "Traded so important. Whether it's us or the United States. Think about security first. Certainly not in the form of electronic storage. Don't think about tampering with electronic devices. Both parties are required to inspect the goods before the exchange. The U.S. has the technical strength to verify that the land we provide is the real technology. The CIA cannot be fooled with fake technology. ”

"Then you can only start on the way back to China with the technology of the CIA personnel."

"It's too risky, but it's not impossible." Li Cunxun pondered for a while and said, "First of all, we have to set up information barriers so that the CIA cannot transmit the technology it has obtained through other channels. Secondly, it is necessary to find out the return route of CIA personnel and arrange relevant operational personnel. In the end, it is necessary to design appropriate interception means and not provoke fire. ”

"And our security."

Pan Yunsheng pressed his hand and said: "These are all detailed problems in action, and there must be a solution." The point is, who goes to the joint? ”

Li Cunxun and Liu Xiaobin were stunned at the same time, and then smiled bitterly.

Zhao Rundong hesitated for a moment and looked at the two "rookies" of the Military Intelligence Agency.

"They can't." Pan Yunsheng sighed and said, "Xiao Li and Xiao Liu are wanted 'criminals' by the CIA, and catching them is more significant than obtaining any key technology." ”

"What about the others?"

"Field agents definitely can't, the rank is too low. High-level spies are not good, and connecting with the CIA will reveal their identities. Pan Yunsheng pondered for a while and said, "For such an important matter, only I have come forward. ”

Zhao Rundong was secretly shocked and said, "It's too risky for you to come forward." ”

"The risk is reciprocal, and since it is up to me to come forward, I will definitely ask for a transaction with the director of the CIA." Pan Yunsheng smiled faintly and said, "Now that the eight characters have not been skimmed, there is no need to think about the problem too seriously." Before the official transaction, it was necessary to make secret contact with the CIA to determine all the details. In a few months, it simply won't be done. If the risk is too great to be beyond our control, the transaction may be terminated at any time. ”

Zhao Rundong pondered for a while and said, "You can't be too positive. ”

"Of course, reciprocal transactions are something you and I want, and we can't force or beg."

This concludes the discussion, and the specific work is under the full responsibility of the Military Intelligence Agency.

At this point, Frederick returned to Washington and immediately summoned Leslie and Tredui.

"The situation is much worse than the news released in Japan." Tredui did the intelligence first

"The X-11 has a range of more than three and a half thousand kilometers, and if the mass of the warhead is installed with a third-stage engine, the range will exceed five thousand kilometers and become an intercontinental ballistic missile."

According to international standards, a missile with a range of more than 5,000 kilometers is an intercontinental missile.

Frederick frowned, waiting for Tredoy to continue.

"The X-11 uses a solid-fuel engine, and the miniaturization work is very good, with a carrying capacity of less than 1,000 kilograms, and it can be roughly concluded that Japan has made a breakthrough in warhead miniaturization technology. Although the X-11 test-fired had only one warhead, we cannot conclude that Japan did not have the technology to divide the missile from this. Under normal circumstances, the target of the first test launch is relatively low, and the main test is to check whether the key technology has passed. With Japan's space technology, it is not very difficult to master the most basic cluster technology in a short period of time. ”

"What other diversion techniques?"

Treduy nodded and said, "There are two main types of ground-to-ground guidance technologies for ballistic missiles, cluster guidance technology and multi-target guidance technology. The former is relatively simple, mainly used to make up for the shortcomings caused by the lack of power and low accuracy of the warhead, and the actual combat significance is not very large. The latter is much more complex and requires sufficient technical accumulation in navigation, guidance, orbit change, and missile body separation. With Japan's technological foundation, it is difficult to master multi-target guidance technology in three to five years. ”

Frederick nodded and looked over to Leslie.

"The X-11 is just the beginning, not the end." Leslie first put forward the viewpoint, "With Japan's scientific and technological strength, there is no difficulty in developing ballistic missiles, even intercontinental ballistic missiles. The point is that Japan, like the United Kingdom, is an island country with no strategic depth.

Judging by the high technology ** of the X-11, Japan definitely intends to build strategic nuclear submarines with SLBMs as a basic strategic deterrent. Japan will also develop cruise missiles, especially air-launched cruise missiles, to make up for the lack of strategic nuclear submarines. In the short term, Japan will also conduct a number of missile tests, and it is very likely that it will conduct its first nuclear test within the year. The miniaturization of the warhead will also be completed within the year, or early next year at the latest. By the beginning of next year, Japan has enough capacity to create at least twenty nuclear warheads. ”

"This is not enough to constitute a strategic deterrent capability."

Leslie nodded and said, "Based on the situation Japan is in, in order to have a strategic deterrent capability, it needs to have at least one hundred and fifty nuclear warheads and at least one strategic nuclear submarine. According to the relevant information provided by CIA~, the probability that Japan will build a strategic nuclear submarine within three years is more than 80%. If strategic nuclear submarines want to have deterrent capabilities, they must rely on submarine-launched ballistic missiles. With Japan's technological strength, it will not be difficult to break through the technical difficulties of SLBMs in three to five years. The key is whether the ground performance of Japan's first-generation strategic nuclear submarines is advanced enough not to be discovered and sunk by China or China's attack nuclear submarines. ”

"The key depends on China's attitude."

Frederick looked at Tredui and said, "There will definitely be a change in China's attitude. The X-11 is not powerful enough to pose a threat to us, but it can pose a deadly threat to China. Although China is trying to develop a national strategic defense system and expects to have sufficient strategic defense capabilities, the construction progress is obviously lagging behind. If China finds that it is unable to complete the construction of a national strategic defense system before Japan has sufficient strategic deterrence capabilities, it is likely to take action early and destroy Japan's infrastructure for developing nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles. ”

"We can give China a little bit of impetus on this issue."

"What do you mean?" Frederick looked over to Leslie.

"First of all, we will cooperate with China in intelligence and exchange information related to the Japanese nuclear issue." Leslie pondered for a while and said, "Playing intelligence tricks to convince China that Japan has enough capabilities to have a strategic deterrent capability in the short term, makes China feel a real threat, and forces China to intervene." ”

"I'm afraid that's not enough." Frederick shook his hand and said, "China's ground intelligence system is very developed, and the information we can provide is quite limited, and it is difficult to deceive China." Besides, if China thinks that we are not sincere, it is very likely that it will engage Japan privately to put pressure on us. ”

Leslie smiled wryly and did not refute the president's point.

"There is only one way to get China to make a decision." Tredui paused and waited for both the president and the secretary of state to look at him before saying, "Let China have a limited national strategic defense capability as soon as possible, so that China thinks it has the ability to intercept Japan's strategic weapons, and then make the decision of China's top brass to destroy Japan's nuclear and missile facilities with surgical air strikes." ”

Frederick and Leslie both frowned.

"Of course, we have to not only engage secretly with China, but also show sincerity."

After a moment of thought, Frederick looked over to Leslie. The secretary of state thought for a longer time, and after a while, he nodded his head and agreed with the CIA's proposal.

Damn it**

During the closure period, every half an hour, the flickering brothers went crazy together, so that everyone was happy!
