Li Xiongguo was quite dissatisfied with Nan Xianguo's statement.

But the country did not show signs of dissatisfaction, at least at the diplomatic level.

Today, due to several wars without much real interest and the subprime mortgage crisis, the huge debt of the country has to be paid for by the countries of the world in terms of "quantitative easing". It is no longer possible to concentrate financial resources on a war. Especially in the face of an opponent like Yu Guo. However, the strategic need was to let the Allies fight a war with the Yu State for the Lixiong State. This conclusion is the conclusion of a year-long special project by the Phelps Institute, a well-known think tank in Lixiong country, which gathered 500 researchers.

Since the Phelps Institute is the largest client of the federal government of Lixiong and is known worldwide for its independent research views and accuracy of its forecasts, the Military and Strategic Observatory of Lixiong secretly commissioned the Phelps Institute to conduct a special research forecast a year ago. The project was codenamed "The Storm". And another top-secret name is "How the Rise of the Yu Kingdom Will Be Contained". The study was known only to a handful of decision-makers in the military and State Department, the president, and the CIA. In order to find out about this top-secret research project, Yu's king agent "Swallow" did not hesitate to risk his identity being exposed, and it took half a year to finally obtain the blueprint of "Storm". When "Swallow" read this research report, he knew that Yu was in danger. So it was sent to the intelligence center of the National Security Agency of Yu with a special means of quantum transmission in wartime.

When Zhou Wei, director of national intelligence in Yuguo, was woken up in the middle of the night to tell him that "the quantum transmission terminal had been activated", he knew that something major had happened. This is because Article 12 of the Special Instruction of the Security Bureau stipulates that the "quantum transmission" terminal can only be activated unless there is a major situation that threatens national security and top-secret information.

What makes Zhou Wei feel gratified is that after three years of research, Yuguo scientists finally invented quantum information transmission means and equipment. Because the three-dimensional intelligence surveillance system of space, sea, ground, and even the Internet is very advanced, there is no guarantee that any optical fiber or radio code will not be intercepted by the enemy. However, quantum transmission is only possessed by Yu in the world, and it cannot be intercepted and monitored.

The content of "Storm" shocked the head of the National Security Bureau and the head of the military.

In the first time, the blueprint of "Storm" was presented to the Politburo of the Central Committee. Immediately afterwards, the Military Intelligence Research Center, the Intelligence Research Center of the National Security Bureau, the International Special Science Intelligence Office of the State Council, and other top-secret intelligence analysis agencies of several countries, together with nearly 100 experts, screened the authenticity of "Storm" and conducted detailed research and analysis from multiple angles and fields.

The conclusion: war is imminent.

The Central Military Commission of Yu State held several secret meetings in a row.

According to the research of the Military Commission, "Storm" is a battle plan against Yu concocted based on the crisis of the national strategy of Lixiong State. And the biggest core point of this plan is to use smart strength to disrupt the pace of national development of Yu at the most critical moment of the rise of Yu. Take advantage of the historical existence of border disputes between the neighboring countries of Yu and Yu to activate the disputes. We should use all kinds of diplomatic, military, and economic means to increase the intensity of the dispute, but we must keep the intensity of the dispute within a certain range, so that we cannot trigger a world war, still less drag the country into the war. This is in line with the global interests and strategic layout of Lixiong country. Especially in the event of a war between the world's second-largest and third-largest economies, the country is naturally the best safe haven for currency preservation and inflows. This is the best means to disrupt the economic integration of East Asia and prevent the weakening of the Lixiong coin.

The study also believes that the dispute between the Qiu and Yu countries over the island of peace was a staple planted by the strategists of the Lixiong country half a century ago.

The activation of this wedge now is an excellent time for the country to weigh the changes in the domestic and international landscape.

The Yu strategists put forward two different perspectives on Storm's war plan:

One point of view is that since Lixiong insisted on attacking Yu, the outbreak of a local war with controllable intensity could change from passive to active for Yu. This passivity is the situation that has been wantonly manipulated under the moderate image of Yu for a long time, if the hostile forces take the initiative to initiate this dispute, Yu is also limited, but to clean and accurately defeat the arrogance of the ball country, to a showmanship, then the surrounding countries that are ready to move and even the Li Xiong country will converge on the idea of expansion.

The question is, will the scope of the war be controllable as it would have been? Also, has the war against the globe turned into a protracted war? Even if Heping Island is fought back, is it the best option to garrison troops for a long time? Is the entry point for the playing country their navy, air force, or military bases?

Another point of view is that this war cannot simply be regarded as a local dispute with the country of peace and the island. Since Lixiong instigated so many countries to subvert Yu, Yu should teach these countries a lesson in chronological and important order. Although it is taboo to attack everywhere, the current international environment facing Yu is too bad. The deepening of domestic economic reforms has not raised the level of political reform. Social contradictions are acute. Unfair distribution, corruption, sluggish domestic demand, and so on make the ruling party face a dilemma. If the war is actively used, it can push the political reforms that are difficult to implement to a higher level, and can stimulate domestic consumption and absorb the accumulated economic criticism, and boost the prestige of the ruling party. Then the war cannot be carried out according to the wishes of the Lixiong State, but in the hands of the Yu State. At the level of national foreign strategy, it can break the shackles of the first island chain built by Lixiong and gather the centripetal force of Asian countries towards Yu. The Malacca dilemma also requires a war to win a long-term passive victory.

The question is, what happened to Yu's war preparations? In the face of a pack of wolves, which one to fight first? How is the strategy developed? Will it create an uncontrollable situation in which the smoke is everywhere?

Just as Yu was actively preparing for a large-scale war, a message reached the ears of Jiang Rende, the chief of the North American Special Section of the National Security Bureau of Yu: the agent of Yu who was lurking in the deepest part of Lixiong State with the code name "Swallow" disappeared on the third day after issuing the "Storm" secret. The news sent back by Yu's intelligence network in Lixiong also proved that the "swallow" was missing.

Jiang Rende instructed: "At all costs, by any means, you must find the swallow." ”

Li Xiongguo was very surprised by Yu's sudden large-scale public war readiness action. This surprise is no less than what happened to Yu Guo to obtain its Storm plan. Because Li Xiongguo knew that the "Storm" plan must have been leaked. In this way, it is difficult to carry out tactics at the tactical level, or sneak attacks and attacks that are launched without warning. It cost 20 million lixiong coins and a year-long top-secret project was leaked, and it became another situation where you had to go shirtless. The director of the CIA of the country of Lixiong, Paku, was very annoyed, because the damage to the country caused by such a leak of strategic secrets was too great, and he had to stop the loss immediately. As a result, the internal counterintelligence department was instructed to start a thorough investigation.

Without exception, everyone who has come into contact with "Storm" has become the subject of censorship.

"Swallow" is no exception.
