Chapter 830 Finale
The next morning, when the US military initially summarized the huge losses on the Asian front and sent them to US President Amy O'Leary, President O'Leary almost fainted. Three aircraft carrier battle groups, 29 low-Earth orbit military satellites, more than 400 fighter jets, and nearly 10,000 US Army officers and soldiers were injured and killed. Such a heavy loss completely exceeded O'Leary's imagination.
Although President Oler, who had not been asleep all night, has obtained some information on combat damage through the military's previous real-time notification, after the military summarized everything, President Oler could not stand these huge numbers.
At the urgently held Supreme National Security Conference, all senior U.S. military leaders were present, including White House security adviser Brandt Kata, as well as the latest chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the Three Army General Ilyak Ramney and Defense Secretary Carter Karen, plus Shanghai Chief of Staff General Skes, Army Chief of Staff Coral and Air Force Chief of Staff General McCall, and all the generals of the sea, land and air were present.
US President Amy O'Leary looked at the senior US military leaders in front of him, and almost everyone's face was full of fatigue and dismay. Obviously, in the past night, none of them were tired and exhausted.
"Gentlemen, I believe everyone knows what happened last night. Our enemy launched a crazy attack. Our army suffered extremely heavy losses." President O'Leile said straight to the point. Faced with such a huge defeat, he had no intention of being tactful. "Frankly speaking, although I am an amateur in the military, I can now be convinced that in conventional wars, we have no chance to beat the People's Liberation Army."
Although President O'Leile's words were very arbitrary, none of the US military generals here dared to stand up and refute the president and safeguard the military's honor.
"I think there are only two ways to go before us," President O'Leary continued without looking at the different expressions of the generals under his command. "One way is to admit defeat, we start a ceasefire negotiation with the Chinese; the other way is to launch a nuclear war and destroy the Chinese resistance with nuclear weapons."
"Gentlemen, does anyone have any better suggestions now?" President O'Leary asked finally.
"Amy, I don't think nuclear war is a good suggestion," said Brandt Kata, the close partner of President O'Leyle and White House security adviser, and said, "We are all aware of what happened in Cape Canaveral not long ago. If a mushroom cloud rises on the Chinese territory, I can't imagine that our cities like New York and Los Angeles are not shrouded in the same mushroom cloud. In this regard, the Chinese have only said that they would not use nuclear weapons first, but never said that they would not use nuclear weapons. We are far from the time when we were burned."
Brandt Kata is good at analyzing problems from a strategic perspective. In his opinion, the US military's adventure has been completely failed. In order to reduce the consequences and losses caused by failure, the wisest thing is to negotiate with China and try to maintain the status quo as much as possible while stopping the war. Although Brandt Kata believes that it is a bit delusional to expect this result, it is obviously much wiser to start negotiations now than to continue fighting and lose everything.
"The military has not lost its ability to fight yet." For the military, if negotiations are conducted based on the current situation, more than half of the generals sitting here will be responsible for defeat. The best result is to resign from their current posts and spend their old age. However, Congress and the people obviously will not let everyone go easily. Therefore, the Air Force Chief of Staff General McCall stood up and said, "We are only temporarily defeating now. The Air Force still has more than 700 advanced fighter jets to fight in Asia and the Western Pacific. If we concentrate our forces, the Air Force can cause significant losses to the southeastern region of the Chinese."
According to the idea of Air Force Chief of Staff General McCall, the US military should have long expanded the war and should have launched a ruthless attack on Chinese key production and manufacturing facilities, especially military targets such as shipyards on the southeast coast. However, President Oler and White House security adviser Brandt Kata have always opposed expanding the war to the manufacturing sector.
In the eyes of the two politicians, if the military cannot stop the PLA's retaliation against it, it is best not to take the lead in provoking unconventional wars with huge risks. The attacking nuclear submarines of the PLA that come and go freely in the Atlantic Ocean are by no means a decoration. President O'Leary believes that if New York is really attacked by the PLA's cruise missile, regardless of whether it succeeds or not, the people will definitely take to the streets to launch a vigorous anti-war action to remove the president.
The people are certainly happy to enjoy the happiness of the world police if they can ravage their opponents until they have no power to resist. However, if they lead their opponents' counterattack to their doorsteps, they will be worried every day and may die under missiles at any time. The American people who have enjoyed security for more than a hundred years will find it difficult to calmly talk to idols like President O'Leary.
"General McCall," President O'Leyle asked without hesitation, "In the past two hours of fighting, the Air Force lost nearly 300 advanced fighter jets. I don't know how many battle losses you mentioned are still possible? We are not fighting against Iraqis, nor are we fighting against Libyans."
Admiral McCall couldn't help but feel silent. Although 700 fighters are still a big number, nearly 500 of which are the main F-22 and F-35 stealth fighters of the fourth-generation fighter of the US military, the PLA has mastered the radar technology to detect stealth fighters, and the stealth capabilities of the US stealth fighter have basically lost its effect. The emergence of the third-generation and a half-year peak fighter of J-10D/J-11D, which has supersonic cruise capabilities, has weakened the fourth-generation fighter of the US military again.
In that air battle over the East China Sea, the J-10D Flight Regiment guided by the land-based radar system and the Air Police-2000 early warning mechanism was almost not at all inferior to the US F-22 fighter jets. Instead, it severely damaged the US F-22 squadrons with the support of the theater joint combat tactical system.
Therefore, although the damaged main fighter jets of the PLA Air Force were probably not as good as those of the US Air Force after the decisive battle, it would have to be separated from the PLA's land-based radar warning system and air-based radar warning system, which would give the US military a certain opportunity. But will the PLA be so stupid that he rashly enters a strange airspace to fight?
The answer is obviously impossible, because even after defeating the opponent in the East China Sea and South China Sea, the PLA Air Force fighter jets did not take advantage of the victory and entered the Philippine Clark Air Force Base and Naha Air Force Base to beat the water dog. Because in that unfamiliar airspace, the PLA Air Force fighter jets lost ground-based radar and air-based radar early warning guidance. It was quite unreliable to rely solely on the joint combat tactical system of the theater, and using the third-generation fighter jets to fight the fourth-generation fighter jets is also quite unreliable.
President O'Leile, who was determined to seek peace, quickly forcibly unify the internal caliber and formulated a peace negotiation plan. Of course, in order to maintain his own interests as much as possible during the negotiation, the US military began to pretend to mobilize its huge nuclear arsenal on a large scale in order to exert strong off-field factors on China during the negotiation.
However, the People's Liberation Army, which had already been prepared, quickly announced a high-profile announcement of an explosive news about the military's visit to Cuba. Four mysterious Chinese fighter jets appeared suddenly at the Cuba air base, claiming that this was a successful cross-ocean visit of the People's Liberation Army's advanced fighter jets. Immediately afterwards, a 097 Qin-class offensive nuclear submarine of the People's Liberation Army announced a visit to Venezuela, revealing half of its huge body, allowing the Venezuelan president to inspect.
As soon as the People's Liberation Army made these two heavy moves, the news of the US military's strategic weapons was immediately destroyed, and Secretary Burns obviously began to become pragmatic during the negotiations.
However, the negotiations were still very difficult. After nearly half a year, China and the United States finally reached an agreement, declaring that the war between China and the United States in Asia was finally over.
In the new armistice agreement, the Korean battlefield returned to the 38th parallel, and the US acquiesced to China's troops stationed in North Korea; the US military promised to have no more than two squadrons of air force and 20,000 ground troops stationed in Naha base; the US military withdrew from the Philippines; the US military withdrew from Afghanistan and Persia, and gave up its plan to station troops in India. The US military recognized Pakistan's actual occupation of Kashmir and recognized Pakistan's future referendum in Kashmir; the US military recognized the People's Liberation Army's occupation of southern Tibet; the US recognized China's interests in Africa; in the political and economic field, the US no longer required sanctions on China.
In return, the China-Pakistan coalition forces withdrew from India's Punjab and Rajasthan, and China-Pakistan signed a truce treaty with India; the China-DPRK coalition forces retreated to the 38th parallel, and China-DPRK signed a new truce treaty with the United States and South Korea.
Therefore, after a huge battle, China finally obtained an extremely valuable opportunity to rest and recuperate, and gave security guarantees to the East China Sea and the South China Sea. When the US military power faded out, the People's Liberation Army, which has two major aircraft carrier battle groups, the South China Sea Fleet and the Pacific Fleet, had regarded the East China Sea and the South China Sea as their own inland seas.
South Asia has even given its firm allies new security guarantees and tangible benefits. Pakistan's actions in Kashmir finally gained recognition from the Americans. Under normal circumstances, the Indians no longer have the chance to turn the tables. At the same time, it helped the current Persian regime quickly defeat the rebels that had lost the support of the US military, regained the country, and provided new guarantees for China's tens of billions of dollars in oil investment.
Although this was not a very perfect result, and it was not very consistent with the huge sacrifices and brilliant victory made by the People's Liberation Army, considering the huge advantages the US military held in unconventional weapons, Chief No. 1 and Vice Chairman Liu finally chose to compromise temporarily.
Facts have proved that the compromise between Chief No. 1 and Vice Chairman Liu was not in vain.
Three years later, the first generation of quantum computers developed by Duke were released, and based on this, it developed the world's top supercomputer, with performance one order of magnitude higher than traditional supercomputers. At the same time, the PLA X series unmanned fighter jets were mass-produced, and China became the world's number one air force power.
Five years later, Duke improved the brainwave instrument. Before Kerry disappeared, Duke used a special brainwave instrument to successfully transplant the knowledge base and computing programs he mastered onto the super quantum computer host. Through the new generation of wireless technology, Duke realized real-time interconnection with super quantum computers, successfully maintaining his super computing learning ability. Two new Beijing-class aircraft carriers were put into service again and were named Hong Kong and Taiwan. At this point, the People's Liberation Army Navy formed a powerful navy with the combat group of four Beijing-class aircraft carriers as the core, and was side by side with the new US Navy, mainly the new Ford-class aircraft carriers.
Ten years later, Duke led the development of the first nuclear fusion experimental reactor of mankind and improved the new generation of Golden Dragon batteries, making battery power the mainstream of the world's small power source, once again changed the world's energy pattern, successfully lifted the world's energy crisis, and put the earth into a new stage of great development. China thus surpassed the United States to become the world's largest power.
Twenty years later, China's first manned spacecraft using nuclear fusion set sail and began its first step in taking the solar system.
