Chapter 102: Conflict or War (I)

"The conflict between China and Japan in the East China Sea has escalated," Xue Yunchu spit out these words, as he expected a long time ago, the competition for resources and energy has long been transferred from land to sea, of course, due to the current limitations of human science and technology, plus cost factors, the main object of current development is the shallow sea area near the continental shelf, in this regard, China has obvious advantages, although Japan as an island country, its eastern part is directly bordered by the entire vast Pacific Ocean, but at present, the real development value is still adjacent to the sea area on the mainland side, This is also the fundamental reason why they have not given up negotiations and contention for a long time. The development of the deep sea is too difficult, although the resources are abundant, except for oil and natural gas, which can be easily transported and extracted, other mineral resources, the development of the deep sea is still very difficult.

In contrast, the continental shelf, which has a water depth of only two or three hundred meters, has a unique advantage, and its mineral reserves are abundant, and the proven reserves of some special minerals even far exceed those on land.

When technology reaches a very high level, this low-level struggle based on energy and mineral resources will cease, because they can develop a near-infinite amount of stellar energy, and use the interconversion of atoms to artificially create various materials. The interstellar civilizations that fight for resources and energy are only existing and literary fantasies, and they only rigidly incorporate the current situation of mankind into the future, without considering the enormous role that future technology can play. This is also a fundamental reason why serious conflicts do not generally break out between higher civilizations.

Although Xue Yunchu knew this, he didn't have any way, he didn't find much information about those technological upgrades, and he didn't have these key things. After the end of the previous mission, there will be data cleaning waiting for him, if it were not for his consciousness layer at the very core, it would not be possible to survive to this day. The data that can be left to him is what will help him complete the task next time, and only a small part of these specific scientific and technological materials are left as some kind of comparison and reference.

That is to say, before the completion of scientific and technological upgrading and transformation, for the competition for energy and resources, human beings still have to carry out a considerable period of time, this kind of research work is not a simple 1 + 1 equals 2, but after a large number of wrong screening, pick out a possible result.

In other words, even if he put the only technical achievement at hand that can play a role in the current situation, the high-energy battery, into the market, because the development of such a battery requires a variety of precious elements, which will only lead to more intense conflicts, which makes him have to be careful.

Unlike biomedical technology, this kind of thing, which can directly affect international military strength, is something that every government cannot let go.

Images continued to flow from his brain, and this was a high-level spy he had infiltrated into the two countries providing him with information directly.

Masuda Yoshiji, an operational staff officer of the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force, was staring intently at the combat information transmitted by a US spy satellite. There were many people nearby, discussing the battle plan together. The Japanese Government has been planning for this conflict for a long time, and the years of bargaining have made certain groups that think they have been inflated think that there is no need to look at the faces of others.

Looking at his colleagues who were in full swing of discussion, there was a hint of an unnoticed smile on Masuda's face. His true identity is one of the replicants arranged by Xue Yunchu more than ten years ago. With super memory, calculation, and judgment, it is very easy to stand out from a place full of mediocrity, of course, limited by seniority, at his age, to be a command room staff officer has temporarily reached the top.

A helicopter frigate, equipped with the most advanced anti-submarine helicopters, and seven escort ships, was dispatched precisely to deter Chinese submarines that often patrol the East China Sea. The so-called helicopter frigate, which is only for others to hear, is essentially a light aircraft carrier, except that instead of carrying a group of fighters, it carries fifteen of the latest anti-submarine helicopters.

……

At the same time, in the Zhoushan Islands Operations Command in the East China Sea, there are also people who are sending secret messages to the outside world, but all this has completely escaped the strict electromagnetic blockade.

Missile frigates, the latest electronic jamming systems, the latest medium-range anti-jamming missiles,

……

A string of top-secret information that can be called the top level flashed in Xue Yunchu's mind, and if any party was allowed to get these messages, then Yiyi would have an absolute advantage.

However, he has no reason to do so, after all, he does not belong to any country, and he is only responsible for himself. Such a situation can only encourage the two countries in the conflict to try their best to improve their military equipment and develop their own science and technology after the war, and this kind of achievement will only cheapen him in the end. This is the inevitable result of looking at the problem from a different perspective. He is the hunter behind the Yellow Sparrow.

Japan's small size has a fatal flaw in the development of the space industry, because the establishment of a ground station requires a long enough latitude and longitude that even Europe can only join forces to catch up with the pace of the other three countries.

The importance of space reconnaissance became even more prominent in the thirties of the twenty-first century.

Although China's armament has always been on the low side, it has always spared no effort in investing in the space industry, and its overall level is far from that of the United States. However, in terms of local conflicts, the gap is only four or six wide. After all, space reconnaissance is not omnipotent, there are still many limitations, and the identification of false targets is one of the difficulties.

The more modern warfare, the faster it is and the shorter the time it consumes, for the simple reason that asymmetrical attack and defense power determine this.

No matter how huge the consumption is, it is impossible to fight a protracted war, and the value of the loss and consumption of ammunition and equipment is also unbearable.

The final result was a draw, and neither ship sank, of course, this may be related to the self-restraint of both sides, and after being hit and hitting the other side, they chose to retreat. Otherwise, the conflict continues, and the sinking of the ship is inevitable. The real result, Xue Yunchu has understood:

The Japanese helicopter frigate suffered heavy damage, and an unsuccessful anti-ship missile hit its port side.

The Chinese side also suffered losses, a vigilant submarine was discovered and hit by a patrol helicopter, and although it made an emergency dive and escaped the fate of being sunk, it was impossible to reappear in the formation in the next three to four months.

Two other interceptor frigates were attacked, and although they did not suffer fatal damage, they also lost the ability to sustain operations.

Of course, relatively speaking, the severity of the losses on the Japanese side is more serious, and the hit of the core flagship already represents their defeat to some extent.

There were other people watching this conflict, and although they could not directly obtain first-hand information from the scene, the eyes from space still gave them a general understanding of the whole course of events.

"Yaga! Before the conflict, didn't you keep assuring me that the latest electronic jamming system, coupled with the satellite intelligence provided by the Americans, would definitely be able to defeat China's East China Sea Fleet without any damage? In such a lose-lose situation, we will be at an extremely disadvantageous position diplomatically! "In the Defense Agency, the commander of the Maritime Self-Defense Force is being severely reprimanded by a fat pig-like figure.

"The emergence of this situation is not our incompetence, but the reconnaissance information provided by the Americans, ignoring the participation of China's newly developed missile frigates, it is the two short-range missiles fired by the other side that escaped our electronic interference, according to the speculation of all the combat staff officers of our command, this should be the application of space laser guidance technology in their secret development, not what we can crack now, unless the Americans can use space weapons to destroy the opponent's space military system, otherwise the future engagement, We will continue to be at this disadvantage. "The commander of the Self-Defense Forces is not afraid of this strawbag-like figure.

"It can be said that we have been able to achieve the results we have achieved so far, and it is closely related to our decisive first attack, otherwise it would be quite difficult for the fleet to return safely without giving the other side an effective blow......

"Shut up! In the first round of attacks, this kind of word is not allowed in any report, you know! We are defending ourselves, defending ourselves! Protect our own rights and interests in ocean development! The fat pig was panting and annoyed by the commander's unruliness, but as a lieutenant general, he did not have the right to remove the other party, and that must be ordered by the prime minister himself.

……

Also receiving the lesson was operational staff officer Masuda Yoshiji, who was responsible for reporting the details of the entire operation. Such a task could not have been more suitable for him, so although he was only a young man, he was already qualified to enter the place that symbolized the highest military power in Japan.
