"I heard that Yaotian of the General Staff is quarreling. It's quite lively, right?" "Himmersome?" Pei Chengyi looked back at Yuan Chenhao and handed over the instant coffee he had made. "It's really lively, it's similar to the talent market outside. If you bargain, you're not at the General Staff these days?"

Yuan Chenhao knew that Pei Chengyi asked, but did not answer this question, and said, "I also heard about the equipment. Equipment matters are really difficult. You have worked in the equipment office and are more familiar with the situation. I heard from Mr. Xiang that it took less than ten days and half a month to get these things clear. I think you have probably come down this time."

Seeing Yuan Chenhao talking about his appearance, Pei Chengyi didn't bother with the problem of the beginning, he smiled and shook his head and said, "Why should I stay? You can't be unclear about what kind of good intentions Mr. Xiang pressed. It is clear that it is the affairs of the Chief of General Staff and the Director of Logistics and Equipment, but I asked me to deal with it. It is understandable that he doesn't want to offend people. After all, everyone wants to have a good reputation before leaving office, but he can't think of everything for the new Chief of General Staff, right?"

"Old Pei, are you talking so angry. You don't know Lin Xiaolei's character?" If you read the most important chapter, choose the Tears Book. Stop the Ao Peng Qiquan

Pei Chengyi smiled and did not join the topic.

Yuan Chenhao did not let go of this topic and said, "When I first joined the General Staff, I knew that Lin Xiaolei was an absolute "navalist". At that time, General Peng did not cultivate him, but instead focused on supporting General Xiang. It was because he was worried that he would mess up the rules of the army. Although I am not a believer of the "army victory theory, nor a believer of the "aircraft victory theory." I am not very interested in other so-called "winning theories," but I believe that if Lin Xiaolei let go, it will be turned upside down in less than five years.

"Are you here to be a lobbyist?" Pei Chengyi leaned on the sofa.

"Is this necessary?" Yuan Chenhao smiled and said, "Mr. Xiang didn't tell me anything. These are my own ideas. Besides, if you really want to do ideological work for you, I don't need to add Mr. Xiang, right?"

Pei Chengyi smiled and knew that Yuan Chenhao was not lying.

To be honest, you can't be unclear about Mr. Xiang's intention."

"We just need to understand this in our hearts."

Pei Chengyi said this. Yuan Chenhao didn’t say much.

In fact, when Xiang Yinghui was asked to participate in the review of equipment development plans under the name of attending high-level meetings, Pei Chengyi knew that the Chief of Staff wanted him to restrain Lin Xiaolei. To be precise, this was unlikely to be Xiang Yinghui's idea. After all, Xiang Yinghui did not have obvious military bias, and had long since stopped asking about the work of the General Staff. According to Pei Chengyi's guess, this is very likely the arrangement of the head of state.

As Yuan Chenhao said, the first intention of the head of state was to use Pei Chengyi to suppress Lin Xiaolei.

To be precise, let Lin Xiaolei know that he is not unique, and that someone can replace him, or even do better than him, so that he can be honest after taking the position of Chief of Staff. Don't come up with some unique tricks. Obviously, the importance of limiting the navy's dominance is not very important.

It is not that the naval expansion should not be restricted, but that it is very necessary.

Although Peng Maobang was an absolute "continental armyist", in the last few years of his military career, the most direct change in concept was the focus of cultivating Xiang Yinghui, rather than other army generals. For example, Su Jinhui, who was very popular at the time, Xiang Yinghui was nominally an army general, but in fact he was not close to the army, at least not like other army generals. He believed that the army was greater than other army branches. It was precisely because of this that during the years when Xiang Yinghui served as the chief of staff, the military power construction of the Republic became increasingly balanced, and independent military forces such as the Heavenly Army, Electronic Soldiers, and Marine Corps were born, and the military power system was improved. No matter how future generations evaluated the Chief of Staff who had not commanded a war, no one could deny Xiang Yinghui's outstanding contribution to the national defense construction of the Republic.

Relatively speaking, during the old years when Xiang Yinghui served as Chief of Staff, the navy's progress was the most obvious.

.

According to the data mentioned in the "Janes Defense Weekly" in the "Annual Global Military Force Comprehensive Analysis" released by "Janeshe Defence Weekly" at the beginning of the Tian year, that is, after the London Summit, the Republic's Navy is already the second largest navy in the world after the US Navy. The overall combat strength is equivalent to the west % of the US Navy. It is the only maritime force that can confront the US Navy and one of the two major global navies. Li Year ago, when Xiang Yinghui was reused by Peng Maobang. The Republic's Navy ranks seventh in the US Navy, the British Navy, the Russian Navy, the French Navy, the Japanese Navy and the Indian Navy, and is only a little stronger than the eighth-ranked Italian Navy. More importantly, the Republic's Navy was not a long-range navy at that time, and at most it could only be regarded as a "far coast navy" that could only operate within the cover of the shore-based aviation force.

In just a short period of time, the displacement of large warships of the Republic's Navy increased by more than tons, and the displacement of the main ships increased by Huolao. The average displacement of the main warships increased from less than Jintun to Sidun. With 6 aircraft carrier battle groups, the world's first submarine force and a complete sea-based strategic strike force were established, and two land combat brigades were able to send two kilometers away from Zhaokou at one time...

These achievements were basically achieved during Xiang Yinghui's term.

It is precisely because after Xiang Yinghui decided to retire, some people suggested that the Navy has made great progress. On the contrary, the development of the Air Force was seriously lagging behind due to insufficient funding. Especially in terms of strategic strike capabilities, the Republic Air Force is far from comparing its most powerful opponent, that is, the US Air Force. Even in terms of tactical aviation and support aviation, the Republic Air Force has no advantage, so let Zhang Zhongxian become the Chief of Staff, rather than let the Navy be alone.

Although most of the people who put forward this view are related to the Air Force or Zhang Zhongjing, this view is correct. After all, who is the chief of staff is a dispute over the interests of the military. If a civil servant can serve as the chief of staff, these problems will not arise at all. Unfortunately, it is impossible for a civil servant to serve as the chief of staff.

Wang Yuanqing did not use Zhang Zhongxian, so choosing Lin Xiaolei's original shit was not complicated: Zhang Zhongxian was too politically wise.

Lin Xiaolei is not without problems, and his biggest problem is his lack of political acumen.

Everyone knows that during Lin Xiaolei's term, the national defense construction of the Republic will definitely be mainly "sustained". It is impossible to violate the general laws of national development and expand with limited national strength. Of course, Lin Xiaolei can also recognize this problem. However, as a soldier with a strong sense of purpose, even if there is no conditions, he will create conditions. In other words, Lin Xiaolei is likely to use the power in his hands to put naval construction first, resulting in serious malnutrition in other military branches. You must know that at most thirty years, the world situation will undergo drastic changes, and the fate of the Republic and the destiny of the Chinese nation will be decided by the soldiers again. If the wrong national defense construction policy causes the Republic's national defense strength to decline significantly, not only will Lin Xiaolei become the eternal sinner of the Chinese nation, but Wang Yuanqing's wisdom will also be affected. If the most slashed chapter is read, choose the Tears Book, Shatter Ao Peng Qiquan

Mo Yong doubted that Wang Yuanqing would not let such a thing happen.

More importantly, Wang Yuanqing should know that after he leaves office, even if the successor Gu Weimin insists on the military reform policy, he may not be able to suppress Lin Xiaolei. In other words, Wang Yuanqing must find a way to effectively restrain Lin Xiaolei and someone who can make Lin Xiaolei bow his head.

This method is to formulate equipment development plans for the next decades, at least in the old year before he left office. Although no one can guarantee that equipment development can persist in the old year without making adjustments, in fact, no equipment development plan can persist in the year or more. After all, the speed of technology development far exceeds the speed of making profits. But what Wang Yuanqing wants is not a detailed plan that cannot be detailed, but an overall development plan, that is, a equipment development plan based on the entire national defense system. It is precisely this. In the past few days, Pei Chengyi seemed at ease, and those generals who did not understand the situation argued endlessly over meaningless details and wasted a lot of time for no reason.

The person Wang Yuanqing wanted was Pei Chengyi, that is, the only one who could threaten Lin Xiaolei! Only Pei Chengyi. In fact, in terms of fame and prestige, Pei Chengyi is above Lin Xiaolei, especially among a large number of grassroots officers. Pei Chengyi's influence and appeal are even no less than Xiang Yinghui. In the words of grassroots officers, as long as they can follow Pei Chengyi to the battlefield, they will most likely come back alive and receive commendations and promotions. For grassroots officers, what they pursue is commendations and promotions. Because it is impossible

Arranged Pei Chengyi in the General Staff to fight Lin Xiaolei, and to consolidate Pei Chengyi's position, so Wang Yuanqing came up with a compromise solution to let Pei Chengyi join the "Yanhuang Plan Thug", that is, to recognize Pei Chengyi's status in the Republic's leadership group. In addition, supporting Yuan Chenhao is also consolidating Pei Chengyi's position in the army. Not to mention anything else. When ordinary people think of Yuan Chenhao, the Prime Minister thinks of "the young general who followed Pei Chengyi to win the Indian War."

After understanding these relationships, Pei Chengyi naturally knew the importance of the equipment development approval work.

Yuan Chenhao was not a fool. Before he came back from Pakistan to meet Pei Chengyi, he realized that because of his special relationship with Pei Chengyi, the future and fate of the two were already tied together. When Xiang Yinghui asked him to live at Pei Chengyi's house, Yuan Chenhao made up his attention and chose the camp.

There is no doubt that Yuan Chenhao's role in this power struggle within the army is very critical.

When he saw Yuan Chenhao, he didn't plan to speak. Pei Chengyi smiled and said, "You don't need to worry about my affairs. I haven't seen you these days. Let's talk about your situation."

"I'm here to say goodbye to you."

"Goodbye?" Pei Chengyi's brow jumped a few times and said, "Are you going back?"

"Yes, the plane is ready and can take off at any time Yuan Chenhao breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Don't worry, I'll just give me a pound anyway. Whenever I go back, I'll take off.

.

Pei Chengyi smiled and shook his head. He said, "I didn't expect that you were leaving again just a few days after meeting. What happened there was urgent?"

"It's not a hurry, but a lot of our work has not been deployed. In the words of Director Li, it will be more helpful for us to go back early to prepare."

"Li Cunxun asked you to go back?" Xueshuba Shuoku Factory reported the few, Xia Zhanyou, Xia Duo

Yuan Chenhao nodded and said, "I have been in the Military Intelligence Bureau these days. In addition to understanding some necessary information, I mainly ask Director Li for advice. In the words of Mr. Xiang, if you want to do secret work, you have to find Li Cunxun. It is useless to find others."

"What did Li Cunxun say?"

"It's not great anyway." Yuan Chenhao smiled bitterly. He said, "In his words, if the lid is not lifted, the pressure cooker in the Middle East will explode. Although I think he is a bit overstatement, I was also paying attention to the situation in the Middle East when I was at the South Asian Theater Command. Even if the conflict in the Cabernets Islands would have an impact on the decision-making of the United States, because the direct participant in the conflict is Israel, as long as Israel is not prepared, it is unlikely to create a conflict. But Director Li's words also make sense. After all, we will prepare earlier and have an additional chance of winning. Besides, what the Central Conference said has nothing to do with me. Since I am asked to go back and preside over the overall situation, I will not send a new theater commander, and I don't need to stay and wait for the result."

"Since Li Cunxun said that, you can go back early." Pei Chengban paused slightly. The problem in the Middle East is not very big. According to Renchao, the possibility of a fight within the year is very small. You should know that the top priority of the Israeli Prime Minister is to let the parliament approve the London Treaty. The United States definitely does not want to see Israel break the treaty, so whether it is the Israeli authorities or the US authorities, they will calm down and even make some concessions to ensure the stability of the situation. After the end of the year, the treaty will officially take effect, and the United States and Israel can fight. The ability of the Military Intelligence Agency, let alone deal with Syria and Iran, even facing the Si and Mosad, is enough to make all preparations in half a year."

"You mean, let me go back early, not for this?

Pei Chengyi nodded with a smile, and did not rush to rush to

"Make a key"

"Have you been to the Head of State these days?"

Yuan Chenhao was stunned for a moment and said, "I went there the day before yesterday. I haven't attended the meeting of the Head of State for two nights."

"I haven't been to the Head of State for two nights." Pei Chengyi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Before this, I was not sure. Now that I know that it was Li Cunxun who asked you to go back, I can be sure that there must be differences on the issue of the commander of the South Asian War Theater.

Yuan Chenhao immediately frowned.

"Of course, Yingjian is not on you, but on me."

"Old Pei, don't go around with me, just say it, I can stand it

Pei Chengyi smiled and shook his head, saying, "Think about it, I am in the army now, besides you, there are several old subordinates who really hold real power? Of course, I don't deny that I have some friends in the army, such as Hua Jianfeng, who is about to become the commander of the navy, and there are also several generals in the Air Force who have a good relationship with me. The key is, besides you, who will support me on fundamental issues instead of Lin Xiaolei?

Yuan Chenhao was stunned for a moment, then he looked at him with a scrupulous look.

"The key is this. In a bad way, you are the foundation of my army." Pei Chengyi smiled and said, "To be honest, before he came back, the head of state sent me to a very important party. He also exposed me to something that only the central leaders could contact. In other words, the head of state recognized me as the central decision-making level, but did not give me any real power. Obviously, you must ask, why did the head of state arrange this? The reason is very simple. There is no room for me to play for the time being, so there is no need to reuse me, and the challenges in the future are very severe. Maybe when I need to charge in the battle. Of course, these are just superficial. If I am not wrong, the head of state's real intention is to let me restrain Lin Xiaolei, that is, to use me to control Lin Xiaolei."

"I thought of all these, but,"

"Since you think of this, you should know that the Head of State asked you to come back. It is to confirm your status in the South Asian War Zone."

Yuan Chenhao nodded slightly, expressing his agreement with Pei Chengyi's analysis.

"The head of state agrees, does not mean that others agree, too." Pei Chengyi sighed and said, "As the saying goes, people's hearts are separated from their belly. Even if the head of state has a sharp eye, it is impossible to see through everyone. In fact, the head of state's arrangements for the future of the Republic are not profound, and people with a little political mind can see it. In other words, if someone intends to direct the Republic forward according to their own wishes, the first thing to do is to win Lin Xiaolei's support. It is best to use Lin Xiaolei's shortcomings, such as the idea of ​​building a large navy to control Lin Xiaolei. In this way, find a way to deal with me. If you want to deal with me, you must first deal with you. In other words, either transfer you away or arrange a boss for you."

"Since that's the case, why do you want me to go back?"

"Do you think you can withstand the storm?" Pei Chengyi shook his head and said, "Li Cunxun asked you to go back. There are two purposes. One is to let you guard the territory and filter the people around you to avoid being framed. The other is to let you avoid domestic political struggles. After all, you are still in good health. What is a mere Army Major General?"

"Damn, I knew this would have happened if I had known it.

"Don't say anything about fighting, this is reality." Pei Chengyi smiled and said, "So I said it's better to go back early and do everything I should do, so as not to give someone a handle."

Yuan Chenhao nodded slightly, suddenly thought of something, and said, "I patted my butt and left, what should you do?"

"You still have the mood to worry about me?"

"You said too. We are ants on the same line. You're done, how good can I be?

?”

Pei Chengyi smiled and shook his head, saying, "Don't worry, I'm much smarter than you, and I won't stay and wait for death. As long as General Xiang is still in the position of Chief of Staff, no one dares to do anything to me. Of course, I will definitely leave the capital before General Xiang leaves General Staff. As for the future, it depends on your performance at the South Asian Theater Command.

Yuan Chenhao breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It seems that we have no way out. It's better if we don't take the courage to burn our boats, and we will really treat us as sick cats." The tears book bar shook the factory and reported the price, the bad news, the bad news, the bad news

"Do you need me to take you to the airport?"

"No, I'll go by myself." Yuan Chenhao stood up and said, "You have a meeting in the afternoon, so I won't delay any more. When we get there, we will contact you again.

Pei Chengyi nodded and sent Yuan Chenhao outside the door.

It is obvious that Yuan Chenhao came to see Pei Chengyi before leaving, not only to say goodbye, but to remind Pei Chengyi, but Pei Chengyi had seen through it for a long time, so he kept a lot of words in his heart and didn't say it.

Come.
Chapter completed!
