Chapter 187: Lu Chuan was interviewed for the first time
The Minister of Defense of the Eagle Sauce Country guessed that this object on the Devil's Lake would be the dock that the Great Xia Kingdom would use before building the warship?
But such speculation was immediately denied.
Because through satellite scanning, it was found that this huge object was not only one, but also had no connection to the shore of Devil's Lake.
If it is a pier, then it must be fixed to the shore.
But they could clearly see through their spy satellites that the huge object would float gently with the waves of Devil's Lake.
"If this is really a battleship designed by the Great Xia Kingdom, it is too peculiar and too sci-fi."
The Minister of Defense lamented.
And Hunter's mind was full of thinking about how to stop the construction of the Great Xia Kingdom warship at this time.
The Minister of Defense asked him, "Is there any other way we can get the sea serpent into Devil's Lake?" As long as the sea serpents can enter, we can stop their construction. ”
Hunter looked at the satellite map, shook his head and said: "I'm afraid we can't do anything about this matter, judging from the map, the Devil's Lake is an inland saltwater lake, and there is no river in and out at all, even if we want to release sea snakes from other places, we can't enter through the river, not to mention that the Great Xia Kingdom has been alert this time, and their mosquito trapping system must be on guard against us at any time." ”
The Secretary of Defense thought about it and finally decided that if he wanted to know whether this thing was a battleship or not, he could only let Nicole carry out an intelligence mission.
So he picked up the phone on his desk and prepared to call Nicole.
But before the number was finished, a staff member hurriedly ran in.
He gasped and said to the Minister of Defense: "Mr. Minister, the Great Xia Kingdom... The Great Xia Kingdom announced the warships on the Devil's Lake. ”
As soon as the Minister of Defense heard this, he put down the phone in his hand and looked at Hunt for a long time, feeling incredible.
At this time, the two of them thought at the same time: "What kind of medicine is the Great Xia Kingdom selling in the gourd this time, such a secret thing, it was actually announced like this?" ”
So I immediately turned on the TV.
Sure enough, the press conference of the Great Xia Kingdom was being broadcast live on TV at this time.
The monitor behind the speaker shows the mysterious object with three discs.
He pointed to this object and said: "Today, our Great Xia Kingdom wants to show the world that the warship we will build in the next year, this is a battleship that can go into space and can also fight at sea, and our Great Xia Kingdom named this battleship Luchuan No. 1!" ”
Hearing this, both the Secretary of Defense and Hunt froze.
The Minister of Defense said: "This... What exactly is this operation? Why did they take the initiative to announce this? Shouldn't this be top secret for any country? ”
"I think there's only one reason why they're doing this, and that's that they think that even if they announce it to the world, they're not worried that other countries will overtake them," Hunt said. ”
At this time, a reporter from the Eagle Sauce Kingdom in the audience asked: "May I ask why your Great Xia Kingdom suddenly announced this matter, shouldn't this be a secret belonging to your country?" ”
The spokesman smiled and said, "Confidential? We don't think so, I'm afraid that the photo of our Luchuan-1 has long been on the desks of the defense ministers of many countries, right? So we feel like there's nothing to hide. ”
The words amused those present, because they all knew that this might be the case.
When the Minister of Defense of Eagle Sauce Country heard this, he was so angry that he threw the photo on the table on the ground.
The spokesman continued: "Instead of letting some countries sneak up on spy satellites, it's better for us to announce it earlier, so that you can have an easy time, and we can also relax." ”
Several journalist colleagues asked the same question, that is, why the shape of the Lu Chuan-1 is so weird, and it is completely different from the conventional warships before.
The spokesman said in a joking tone: "I'm afraid this question will have to be explained by Lu Chuan himself, because this was designed by Lu Chuan himself, and as we all know, over the years, the advanced weapon systems of our Great Xia Kingdom have all come from him, so it would be better for him to answer these questions himself." ”
The reporters in the audience thought to themselves: "Isn't this just a shirk, we can't interview Lu Chuan." ”
But as he was talking, he saw the spokesman stretch out his hand and said, "We specially invited Professor Lu Chuan from the Scientific Research Bureau today and asked him to personally answer some of your questions about Lu Chuan-1. ”
There was an uproar in the audience, because for a long time, I don't know how many reporters in this world want to interview Lu Chuan.
But Lu Chuan, as the most important scientific researcher in the Great Xia Kingdom, has always been under the strictest protection, so he has hardly seen him at all.
This time, I actually met Lu Chuan himself at the press conference, and no reporter was willing to give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
One by one, they all stood up and scrambled to ask questions.
In this way, the Minister of Defense of the Eagle Sauce Country and Hunter were even more puzzled, thinking that if Lu Chuan was invited to the scene of the press conference, was it to reveal more secrets of Lu Chuan No. 1?
It turned out that all this was the arrangement of the vast industry.
After discussions between the industry and the Scientific Research Bureau, it was decided to hold this press conference to announce some news about Luchuan No. 1.
Because they know that Luchuan No. 1 is being watched by many countries at the moment, and coupled with the sinking of the aircraft carrier in Modu Port last time, they have nothing to hide this time.
There is too much concealment, and I don't know which country will make some small actions that are difficult to guard against from behind.
Directly announcing the existence of Luchuan-1 to the world may instead be a kind of protection for Luchuan-1.
At the press conference, almost everyone was asking the same question at this time, that is, why the appearance of Luchuan No. 1 would be like this.
Lu Chuan replied: "We designed the warship to look like this in order to make it more advantageous to fight in space, not just to have an advantage on the sea. ”
The reporter from the Eagle Sauce Country asked: "So, are you designing this warship against our hive system?" ”
Everyone knew that the reporters in Eagle Sauce Country would definitely ask this question.
And those present also habitually believe that the person who is asked this question must think of another reason to explain, or to disguise his true purpose.
However, something that I never expected happened at this time, and Lu Chuan's answer directly made everyone dumbfounded.
Even Li Shengdong and the vast industry, as well as all the people of the Great Xia Kingdom, felt incredible.
