In 2015, the Republic entered a state of supergodhood, showing the demeanor of a new generation of imperialist hooligans on all fronts, crushing the surrounding small countries with enough money and the largest capitalist industrialization force in the world.

Japan lost the East China Sea War, but with the support of the United States, it made peace with the Republic and did not allow the Republic to set foot on its own soil.

The United States began a strategic contraction, and they withdrew a large number of troops from East Asia, only maintaining one force in Japan. They let go of Japan's cage and allowed Japan's militarist forces to rise to power, and at the same time let go of Japan's arms purchases. They have withdrawn from Southeast Asia, but have strengthened their military presence in the Middle East – even now that the Republic's Super Batteries are in vogue, after all, oil is not just a fuel, but a chemical feedstock. As long as the republic has not completed the commercialization of controlled nuclear fusion, it will not be able to leave the oil of the Middle East.

The situation in the world is becoming more and more tense, in the words of the American media: "The source of the world war has been formed, the republic is about to complete the integration of the new axis, and we are likely to see the third world war in our lifetime, but it is difficult to say whether it is a nuclear war or not." ”

As always, the Republic refuted the preference of US imperialism: "The Republic will never strive for hegemony, it will always be the power of international justice, and it will be a country in the third world, and we should not take the lead." "It's hard to say how many people will believe it.

It's the summer of 2015, and just recently, the republic's first conventionally powered aircraft carrier was launched, and although the aircraft carrier with 40 aircraft cannot be compared with the heavy nuclear-powered aircraft carriers of the United States, it still establishes maritime supremacy in East Asia - although the Japanese militarist government that has released the halter does not recognize this, after all, they also have several aircraft carriers about to be launched, and the Japanese vowed to revive the combined fleet, and also took advantage of this shipbuilding trend, Japan climbed out of the quagmire of economic recession with difficulty......

Hudson Estuary, New York. The raven dredger is working. As the U.S. economy declined, the Port Authority of New York outsourced the dredging of the river to private companies to save budgets. The Raven is the only work vessel owned by Buck Brothers, a small contracting company. Buck, the owner and captain, sat lazily in the wheelhouse, smoking a cigar and watching the huge bucket behind him scoop up the mud from the bottom and load it onto a nearby mud carrier. They've been working all morning, and Buck decides to dig another shovel to finish the morning's work and eat.

The bucket went deep into the seabed, and when the bucket came out of the water, the silt kept flowing down the bucket hole, and suddenly, Buck saw a flash of metal in the bucket, and the steel arm of the bucket also squeaked, and the motor was obviously overloaded - digging a big, heavy thing......

Buck shouted and ordered his men to lock up the digging arm immediately, and then charged the bucket with a high-pressure water cannon. As the mud washed into the sea, the metal object, which looked like a beetle cart, was revealed in its entirety - no one knew what it was, but Buck had a gut feeling that it would probably sell for a good price.

He dragged it back to the docks, threw it in his warehouse, and was ready to sell it. It's just that after a group of soldiers found Buck with a "dripping" Geiger counter, he had to accept the confiscation of this thing, and at the same time had to pay compensation to the port authority for it, and he himself felt that he had to go to the hospital for a good examination.

The thing was quickly raised to the highest level of secrecy after inspection, and was sent to a transport plane and escorted by a squadron of fighters to Nevada Area 51.

"Your Excellency, we have obtained another item that has been identified as an alien civilization. "In fact, Americans have long collected a lot of things that are chattering with gods, and although many things are completely unsolvable, they can still be confirmed that they are not objects on earth. But it was the first time that they had received something that could have been identified as an alien artifact, so the military immediately reported the discovery to the president.

"We found out that this is an artifact, and we can partially dissect its technique, but we need time and budget, Your Excellency. We hope to be able to convince the Committee to receive more allocations. ”

"You'll get it!"

The military science and technology of the Republic have been developed by leaps and bounds, the entry into service of aircraft carriers and the finalization of new fighter planes have made the Navy and Air Force of the Republic approach the level of the United States for the first time, and the Army, which is known as the world's No. 1, has completed digitization and electrification in the past few years of development, almost all army equipment using petroleum fuel has been modified or decommissioned and updated, and a large number of equipment using new high-energy batteries have entered active service and passed the test of war. Now the Republic is negotiating peaceful reunification with Taiwan, and the naval fleet is conducting frequent exercises in the Pacific Ocean.

The Americans still retained the Seventh Fleet and part of the air force in Japan, and they still often conducted various air tests with the Republican planes that conducted reconnaissance. As time passed, the Republic increasingly overwhelmed the scope and operational capabilities of the U.S. military in East Asia.

Time flies quickly, and at the beginning of 2018, the new head of the republic officially stepped down from his previous post as deputy head of state and took office, and Japan's militarist development course was finally unsustainable - they built a bunch of warships, bought a bunch of planes, could neither eat nor wear, although the economy was stimulated, but the military maintenance costs were getting higher and higher, the country's economy was about to go bankrupt - the interest on the national debt was approaching the domestic budget...... Unless a victorious war is waged, the government is about to fall. However, they still have one way - to officially put into service the atomic bomb that was secretly developed, and at the same time try to see if they can develop a hydrogen bomb, and at the same time gain the understanding of the Americans.

The Republic of China has long known that Japan is developing an atomic bomb, so it has also decided to use Japan's violation of the UN Charter as an excuse to launch a strike on Japan's military capabilities and solve Japan's problems once and for all. This requires the Republic to make a fuss about Japan's nuclear armament......

The air force of the Republic has approached Japanese airspace many times, and a misfire could occur at any time.

Japan exploded an atomic bomb on its own uninhabited island......

The Japanese government announced in a high-profile manner that Japan had entered the nuclear club, and the Republic issued a serious warning: "Pull back from the precipice, don't be unpredictable!"

The United States did not speak out at all.

On the same day, Japan's Fourth Fleet began to leave port, and negotiations between Taiwan and the Republic reached an impasse due to the interference of some people.

The Fourth Fleet has a conventionally powered aircraft carrier with 42 aircraft, 24 of which are HNA versions of the F-22J.

The East China Sea Fleet of the Republic is also-for-tat, beginning to approach the waters off Taiwan, while new electric submarines have long been lurking in the Pacific Ocean ready to hunt the Japanese fleet.

The clouds of war are drawing nearer, and the whole world is waiting for the war to start with their eyes open – that is, within 24 hours.
