The situation at sea has calmed down at an extremely strange pace, which Chen Nian never expected.

——

It is impossible for anyone in this world, even a time-traveler like him, who is omniscient about historical events, to guess and even less guess that the opponent did not have a way to go to the dark, but retreated in the face of difficulties.

Of course, the retreat is temporary.

At the very least, we are unlikely to let our guard down because of their temporary weakness.

The movement of the fleet is still carried out in accordance with the established strategy, and the shipyards and various military factories are also working non-stop, with the intention of making up for the so-called "quantity" gap in the shortest possible time.

In addition, discussions on the follow-up strategy have already begun

Office.

The leader spoke.

"Generally speaking, this time we were able to force the opponent back, which is a strategic victory, but also a technical victory."

"Various military-industrial enterprises, various scientific research units, especially the Spark group, played a major role in the confrontation during this period."

"All kinds of new equipment and weapons, including the Wuzhen-9, YJ-21H, 055, and 001, have provided the necessary conditions for us to strive for victory."

"Therefore, the recognition of these scientific research workers must not be discounted."

"After discussions from all parties, the current commendation plan has also reached an internal consensus, so I won't go into too much detail."

"At present, the most urgent work of various departments is to carry out our commendation and give our team another breath."

"I won't go into detail about the whole task, Lao Xu, you can arrange it."

"Understood."

The middle-aged man sitting on the right-hand side nodded slightly and made a note in his notebook.

"How long will it take?"

"About two weeks, if there is a need for adjustment in the future, I will submit an application again."

"Okay, that's up to you. This is an important task, and it must not go wrong. ”

The meaning of "something wrong" mentioned by the old man is very simple, that is, not to cause dissatisfaction among the following departments because of the distribution of awards and commendations.

After all, we are now in a critical period of strategic sprint, and it is very likely that a very small "fluctuation of people's hearts" will have a significant impact on the implementation of the overall plan.

When the time comes, if the final result is unsatisfactory, it will be more than worth the loss.

But of course, as an experienced old comrade, Lao Xu could not make such a mistake.

His idea is very simple, it is difficult to level a bowl of water, so it is better to be simple and rude, and simply pour a few more bowls of water.

Anyway, the results of this battle are big enough, and it is to establish a new deterrence and open the door to the future.

What's wrong with the multi-point prize?

If possible, I want to take the opportunity to pull a wave and directly put the social status of scientific researchers on the core agenda to discuss.

Thinking of this, he opened his mouth and replied:

"Leader, don't worry, I know this in my heart."

"Although the overall fiscal situation is tight this year, the scale is still growing rapidly, and there is no pressure to spare some budget to do this."

Hearing this, the old man immediately understood what he meant.

"That's good, you can grasp it."

After a pause, he continued:

"This commendation of the organization, we just follow the rules and regulations."

"But Chen Nian, everyone should put more thought into it."

"Although this matter will not be discussed on the work agenda, its importance is clear to everyone."

"Or actively contribute ideas and find ways to make him remember us and remember our kindness."

Everyone in the conference room nodded in response, and seeing this scene, Lao Xu couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

What kind of honor is this?

Although there was no public recognition or title, everyone in this small room was given the same task because of him.

Throughout the country's history, there really aren't many people who have received such an honor.

With such a "comprehensive attention", Chen Nian is the first person to break new ground.

After chatting about the topic of commendation, the old man took off his glasses, and then said:

"The next thing we're going to talk about is even if it's behind closed doors."

"I don't need to introduce too much, everyone knows the current situation."

"There are signs of division within NATO, and the American side is already in a position of extreme isolation in the perception of the situation at sea."

"We can assert that if the United States continues to stir up right and wrong, Britain, France and Germany will definitely be the first to stand up and oppose it."

"At the same time, they have de facto made a retreat, and the strategic alliance with the South Island is collapsing."

"That is, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity has arisen in front of us."

"The question is, should we take advantage of this opportunity to accomplish the ultimate strategic goal in one fell swoop?"

Hearing the old man's question, everyone in the conference room fell silent.

Even if the tone is set at the beginning and that it is now discussed behind closed doors, this question is still difficult to answer.

Do you want to fight?

It's easy to take, but no one can predict where NATO's bottom line is.

It is quite possible that, after noticing the turn of events, several countries that were originally hard-line opponents will soon unite again.

At the same time, it is easy to fight the country, but it is difficult to defend the country, what if the war of annihilation develops into a protracted war?

But if you want to say that you don't fight, such a good opportunity is in front of you, and it's really a pity not to seize it.

If you miss it, it is definitely not easy to find a similar window period in the future.

The old man looked around, waiting for an answer.

But after a long time, it was Lao Xu who raised his hand first.

"I'll speak on behalf of all of you on this issue, in fact, I know that everyone is on the same page."

"Hit, I'm afraid that there will be problems in the future. If you don't fight, I'm afraid there will be no more opportunities. ”

"But let me explain, how did we create this opportunity?"

"Was it a coincidence? Is it luck? ”

"It's not!"

"It is the three major fleets, the second artillery artillery, and our navy, land and air force, which are fighting and fighting little by little under the premise of highly developed technology."

"So, the opening of the window is inevitable."

"And, I can predict, this window will never close."

"Why? Let's think about it. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the conference room was a little stunned.

Lao Xu did not pause, but continued.

"The reason is simple: because the development of technology is not stopping, but accelerating."

"I'll just put it more bluntly."

"As long as Chen Nian is alive and still on our side, this window will always be open."

"My advice is that we don't have to take any risks."

"Now to fight, to recycle, to take a false name, interrupting our development and layout."

"The yield is too low to be necessary."

"What's the hurry? With Chen Nian's secret weapon, are we still a little short of this time and a half? ”

At the same time, the other side.

Lu Yuan, who had been imprisoned for more than three months, finally ushered in the day of release, and it is undeniable that he was excited at this time, but this excitement was not only because he was about to return to that familiar island, but because he knew that releasing himself was an important signal:

A signal of a fundamental reversal of the situation.

The mainland side no longer needs its own crew as a bargaining chip to keep the situation under control, they have everything in their hands.

——

Is this good news?

Perhaps, for a certain part of the population, absolutely not.

Even for Lu Yuan a few months ago, it was definitely not.

But now, after personal experience and learning, his thinking has changed subtly.

Of course, he still doesn't want a violent conflict between the two sides, and he still doesn't want things to go to the last step.

After all, he also has a special affection for his compatriots there.

This feeling is not so easy to wear.

But on the other hand, it is undeniable that he wants the mainland to have the upper hand.

Not because he has completely fallen to the mainland psychologically, but because he has realized something:

Rather than being knocked out of the bones and sucking the marrow by Lao Mei, it is better to let the mainland scrape the bones and cure the poison.

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan couldn't help but sigh.

Wu Hai, the staff member who was standing on the side and had been in charge of him, noticed his expression and asked in a slightly mocking tone:

"Why, looking at your expression, you don't want to leave?"

Lu Yuan did not shy away from it, but replied bluntly:

"I really don't want to leave, but if I don't go, I can't do it, and you won't issue me a visa."

"I still want to go to Guizhou to see your village on the road, this time, maybe when I will come again."

As a matter of fact, although cross-strait exchanges were not frequent at this time, there were basically passages.

Some ordinary people can also get the opportunity of the so-called "family visit visa" after applying.

But Lu Yuan's identity is too special, and he has also participated in key events, not to mention whether the mainland will give a visa, Nandao will definitely not release him.

If you really want to come again, I'm afraid you really have to wait until "that moment".

Wu Hai is naturally well aware of this.

So, he deliberately asked:

"Do you want to come sooner, or do you want not to come?"

After hesitating for a few seconds, Lu Yuan replied:

"I want to come quickly."

"Becoming a reunification?"

Hearing this, Lu Yuan shook his head firmly.

"It's not unified, it should be said. I am a developmentist, a mercenary and a profit-seeker. ”

This was said in a vague way, but it contained a special sense of humor, Wu Hai laughed and replied:

"Then you're quite progressive, don't talk nonsense with you, board the boat, you should also go."

Lu Yuan nodded and asked the last sentence:

"Are you going to do it?"

Wu Hai did not answer.

So, Lu Yuan no longer hesitated and stepped on the gangway that had been prepared a long time ago.

After stepping onto the deck, he subconsciously looked back behind him.

In his line of sight, there is a high-rise building full of life, and further on his left, a bridge across the sea is under construction.

This continent is awakening at an astonishing and incredible speed, and he is one of the witnesses of this great era.

Guarded by a Chinese coast guard ship, the security ship slowly sailed away from the coastline.

Lu Yuan was still standing on the deck, as if he wanted to keep the shadow of this continent in mind.

However, just as the security ship turned out of the port, he suddenly saw a scene that he might not have seen:

In the military port in the distance, several warships are leaving the port.

He knew the models of those warships, but even by their size, he could tell their combat effectiveness.

Lu Yuan's heart suddenly shuddered, he hurriedly ran into the captain's room, and asked the captain who was also looking at the warship in the distance:

"What is the situation on the mainland? Something is going to happen, is it? ”

"So many of us in the same direction? What are you going to do? ”

The captain frowned and shook his head silently.

After a full half a minute, he spoke:

"Ah Yuan, I'm not familiar with them as well as you, how can I know things you don't know?"

"However, Lao Mei has retreated, what do you think they are going to do?"

"Don't avoid us-—— otherwise, you did it on purpose to show us?"

"I don't know."

Lu Yuan shook his head, his heart beating faster and faster.

No way?

Could it be that after they let go of their own chips, they still want to get more chips?

Or do they want to take advantage of this opportunity to solve the problem in one go?

It's definitely not something you want to see

But so what?

The other side's strategy does not change because of anyone's wishes, as long as they decide what they want to do, they will do it.

Those behemoths slowly disappeared from Lu Yuan's sight, and he also gave up his unfounded thoughts.

Never mind.

It's not something you should worry about.

Ah Wan and Ah Pa are still waiting for them at home, maybe after going back, the best choice is to find a bomb shelter as soon as possible to hide

With such a worried heart, Lu Yuan returned smoothly and saw his family smoothly.

Those ships seem to have disappeared - it turned out to be just a coincidence, just a misunderstanding?

Lu Yuan gradually put his mind at ease, but on this night, at the dinner party for him, from the TV, a family of three saw a message that was understated, but it was like thunder on the ground:

……

A wry smile appeared on Lu Yuan's face.

It wasn't a misunderstanding.
