Chapter Seventy-Six: Questioning

At the Osaki launch site at the Tanegashima Space Center in the Pacific Ocean, a tall Japanese-made H2A rocket with a height of tens of meters is erected on a tall tower launch stand.

The head of the Space Center, Tai Po Shiyao, accompanied the inspection officials of the PDC (Planetary Defense Council) to inspect the preparations before the launch, and nodded and explained to everyone.

"This is the third large rocket launched from the Osaki launch site this month, and they, together with the previous two, are carrying the super-large laser weapon satellites of the Tianqi A series designed by Huaxia Guo. They are launched separately in a modular way with their own thrusters, and after entering a predetermined orbit, they are operated and assembled by space station astronauts, and the resulting satellite is actually a laser weapon platform that can be controlled remotely and can be used for combat in space. ”

The representative of the PDC, General Schwartz, listened and nodded repeatedly, expressing satisfaction with the progress of Tanegashima's combat readiness. Within the scope of the entire earth, now, there is only one place that can keep up with the scheduled preparation schedule of the PDC except for Huaxia.

He knew what Dongying was so active in combat preparations. It is nothing more than hoping to increase Dongying's influence in the PDC, and hoping to find a way to insert a few more Dongying generals in the leadership.

Because by now, everyone knows where the most promising organization on the planet is.

Although the PDC is nominally a subordinate organization of the United Nations Security Council and is monitored by the members of the United Nations Security Council, with the progress of combat readiness, the power and influence of the PDC have expanded rapidly, and soon beyond the limits of the coordinating body of the Security Council, it has expanded into a deformed and inflated power body.

Tanegashima Space Center, in accordance with the latest United Nations resolution, is under the division of the PDC. From last month to this month, Tanegashima has undertaken a total of 37 launch missions, creating human history, and even more than the sum of the past few decades.

Not only Tanegashima Space Center, but also Kennedy, Houston, Plesetsk in Russia, Jiuquan in Huaxia, Xichang...... All the similar institutions related to future space warfare have been released from the control of the original national government and become the direct authority of the PDC, and their launch records have undoubtedly set new highs.

The earth's aerospace industry, under the pressure of external forces, suddenly swelled to a peak. This is a compromise that had to be made in order to meet the peculiarities of modern military operations.

In contrast, the transfer of control of satellite communications in space is even more terrifying for national dignitaries on Earth. The modern society of the earth is a society built on the basis of the communication technology of the times, and satellite communication is the most important part of it, and it is the strategic commanding heights of human society. Handing this over is actually equivalent to handing over the future of human society to these generals of the PDC.

In order to cooperate with the combat readiness of the PDC, countries have also had to implement austerity policies for material currency, restrict free movement, and strengthen social control measures. For Mi Lijian, the most important price is to implement the conclusions that experts and PDC generals have been coming to rectify the global financial order and crack down on financial speculation. You must know that the financial capital of the United States is the emperor behind the politics of the United States, and it wants to attack itself and cut it fiercely, which makes even a mature political mechanism like the United States suffer a lot after this battle.

But even so, some things are still slipping towards a deteriorating tendency, and the speed of which has caught many people off guard.

"Now the PDC's combat readiness work has been too failed, and if this situation continues, the Grim Reaper has not yet hit, and we ourselves will collapse first. Aliens won't give us a second chance. ”

In February, at the PDC's regular combat readiness summary meeting, PDC Chairman General Carter Thomson said.

"We need to expand the scale of war preparations, and we must realize that this is a general war, a war that is related to the life and death of the people of the earth, and everyone and everything must be responsible for the fate and future of mankind and make way for future wars. The earth can't afford us to continue like this. ”

From General Thomson's speech, the people present heard a lot of ominous meanings, as the mouthpiece of the countries present, the White House special adviser to the PDC, Secretary of State Strong of the United States asked with a frown.

"What do you want?"

Thomson smiled, Sensen's white teeth made Strong feel frightened,

"Ladies and gentlemen!

I hope that the highest authorities of each country will now consider granting the PDC temporary wartime control powers, including thorough financial control, direct control of some important intelligence and economic departments, and direct control of important goods...... Wait a minute. Our planetary defense plan involves these things, and only by concentrating the financial and material resources of the earth can we win this war......"

Wait-what? Thomson's words immediately angered Strong, and all the highest-ranking advisers in the audience were also taken aback.

What exactly does PDC want to do? In charge of wartime power, is this an attempt to seize power?

In fact, during this period of time, the support of various countries for the PDC has been sparing no effort, but they never thought that even so, the generals in the PDC are still not satisfied.

What do they want?

In just two months, as the preparation process for the war has unfolded at a deeper level, the contradiction in the distribution of rights between the PDC and the governments of the world has begun to appear.

――――――――

"The current wartime preparations are really inadequate, and you, you, including those behind you, probably see this war as a local war similar to the Gulf War, right?"

General Thomson suddenly stood up, his right index finger pointing at Strong and a group of advisers, and roared with astonishing momentum.

"This is a war, this is the largest war in the history of mankind, humanity is facing the most terrible enemy in history, at this time, do you still want to be selfish and greedy to keep the little bit of power in your own hands? Dragging the whole human race to be buried together?

You can show me that this is not the same era as it used to be! ”

In the face of Thomson's accusations, Strong was furious, this ruffian, he seemed to have forgotten who had put him in this position.

Don't forget, we can pick you up and pull you off in no time! Someone else went up.

With this anger, he looked to his left and right, looking around at all the representatives of other countries and the other officers of the PDC. But as far as his eyes could see, the situation shocked him. At this moment, all the officers of the PDC looked at him with the same eyes. Those eyes were full of calmness, tenacity, ferocity, and ambition that could not be concealed.

He suddenly realized that the organization of PDC had deteriorated, and its growth rate far exceeded the expectations of those high-ranking officials in China at the beginning, and it had become an unscrupulous beast. Although the generals and advisers of the PDC are scientists from various countries, various departments, and some of them have little management experience, once they enter this door, they are quickly assimilated by the most powerful organization in the history of mankind, and they consciously become the spokesmen of the interests of this organization.

After mastering the right to allocate bulk materials and control satellite communications in the name of planetary defense warfare, they are no longer satisfied with being a butcher's knife of human society under the supervision of various governments, but have begun to show their most terrible characteristics as a violent organization - expansion.
