Volume 12 Prelude to the Great War Chapter 67 Secret Weapon
Ning Chengyi did not arrange any special tasks for Du Junyong. He just asked him to go to Jiliu Air Station to welcome a special unit and assist the unit in completing a special task.
At dawn, Colonel Du Junyong came to Jiji Naval Air Station.
It is called Naval Air Station. It is actually a naval air base with very complete facilities.
As one of the supporting facilities of the Naval Base in Gwadar Port, Jiji Naval Air Station is not only one of the most important military bases in the Republic in the Arabian Sea, but also one of the eight first-class overseas aviation bases in the Republic. It is also listed as one of the most important global aerospace bases in the Republic. Because it has to undertake aerospace combat missions, that is, it has the ability to deploy aerospace planes, a runway of Jiji Naval Airways that is worm-mouthed is the longest runway around the Indian Ocean, and it also has extremely complete logistics support facilities.
Because we need to share a base with Pakistan, Jiji Airlines' permanent troops in peacetime stations are more than 10,000.
Considering military confidentiality, as early as when the air station was officially put into use, the Republic authorities reached an agreement with the Pakistani government. In addition to the only infrastructure such as the runway, both sides set up separate camps, warehouses, repair stations, communication centers and other infrastructure. This is true. On the south side of the base, that is, the south side of the runway is the Republic Naval Barracks, and to the north is the Pakistan Air Barracks. There is a passage guarded by a military police at both ends of the runway, and only soldiers holding special passes can pass.
What Du Junyong was a little confused was that he was going to pick up people in the Pakistan camp.
The problem is that he was greeting not other troops, but the troops of the Republic's Heavenly Army, because the officer he led was Colonel Lao Yude, whom he met during his further studies.
Seeing the Pakistani military uniforms worn by Lao Yude, Du Junyong had to believe that they were a "special force"
After supervising the Pakistani engineers loaded the cargo on the plane onto several large-scale heavy-load trucks, Lao Yude asked Du Junyong to get on a Pakistani off-road jeep.
"Have you brought a tooth drama towel?"
When Du Junyong heard the words of his old classmate, he was immediately confused.
"It seems you didn't bring me. Fortunately, I expected it.
Lao Yude took out a towel wrapped in a toothbrush from his luggage bag, "You are still the same, you must be unconscious."
"What does this have to do with not being able to open your mind?"
"Why is it okay?" Lao Yude stuffed the towel toothbrush into Du Junyong's hand, "Don't tell me, you answered me later after receiving the call. Think about it, would it be a trivial matter to talk to you alone? Since it is not a trivial matter, is it possible that you will return to Gwadar Port so soon?"
"How do you know that the Joint Commander gave me the order?"
"Of course I guessed it. And I know I guessed it right." Lao Yude smiled and said, "Because I came here to carry out a top-secret operation that the deputy director of the Military Intelligence Bureau directly arranged, and the government would definitely not recognize. Such an action must be related to the victory or defeat of the war. It not only needs to be kept highly confidential, but also needs to be taken seriously. Therefore, the joint commander or the most important assistant around him will definitely give orders to you."
"What is the task?" Du Junyong did not beat around the bush.
"Do you still remember what you learned back then?"
Du Junjian frowned slightly and nodded.
Like Lao Yude, he was a senior officer of the Tianjun Army who was born in the Air Force. To be precise, it was poached by the Air Force commander many years ago by the Air Force commander at that time, Du Junyong and others who were still low-level officers at that time. In any case, the Air Force has the closest relationship with the Tianjun Army. When the Tianjun needs to be expanded, he must first consider poaching people from the Air Force rather than independently cultivating talents. Not to mention anything else, so far, the two Tianjun commanders have been born in the Air Force generals. According to the law of objective development, the one who may become the commander of the Tianjun Army in the future is also a "former Air Force general"
After joining the Tianjun, Du Junyong and Lao Yude both had to receive further training training.
Strictly speaking, this is not just Pei Bian. Because people are different, when they are trained, the Tianjun will arrange positions according to their specialties. Du Junyong is better at planning work, which is often called a staff-type talent. So after receiving the basic skills training card, he was arranged to a staff-level training class. Because Lao Yude obtained a doctorate in science before joining the army, he was arranged to a logistics equipment training class. It was at this time that the two embarked on different development paths.
.
"You've been out of the training class for almost ten years, right?" Lao Yude sighed and said. "In the blink of an eye, ten years have passed."
"How have you been in the past ten years?" Du Junyong was also very moved. After all, the old year was not a very short period of time for anyone.
"I? I don't have the glory of you anyway." Lao Yude smiled and said, "There is nothing to say. Basically, I'm still doing my old job and doing scientific research under the organization of Tianjun."
"Doing scientific research?"
"To be precise, it's the equipment behind it."
Du Junyong looked back at the truck convoy following behind, and looked at Lao Yude again.
"Although we are not allowed to say these things, you are a coordinating officer sent by the joint commander, and sooner or later you will know what is in it." Lao Yude hesitated and said, "You should know. When we were still in the Air Force, our country signed an agreement with the United States related to the demilitarization of space. Later, I heard that major countries such as France and Britain, as well as India and West, which have aerospace boobs, have signed the agreement."
Du Junyong nodded, indicating that he knew what Lao Yude meant.
"You definitely don't know that we have led the United States to reach a secret agreement."
"What secret agreement?"
Lao Yude smiled and said, "I can't say anything about this, but I don't know it. It's just based on my years of work experience and the project I've been working on, I have reason to believe that this secret agreement is actually the backdoor that our country and the United States will keep each other."
"back door?"
"Think about it, the demilitarized international space is openly equivalent to allowing great powers with technological advantages to abandon the commanding heights of war. Although it can avoid a more fierce arms race with the United States, this restriction is not very meaningful in the context of restricting the development of strategic defense systems. In other words, since the positive role of this treaty has limited, why should we abandon our own martial arts?"
Du Junyong was stunned for a moment and immediately understood.
"Demilitarization of space" and "full destruction of nuclear weapons" are two completely different concepts, but the ultimate goal is exactly the same, that is, the two superpowers use their existing technological advantages to jointly exclude and suppress other countries and regions with the potential to become superpowers, and ensure the hegemony of the two superpowers. Under this premise, because space militarization itself does not pose a threat to human existence. At least there is no direct threat, the Republic and the US authorities are unwilling to give up this military commanding heights and must ensure their own advantages while attacking other competitors. Because the investment in the space arms race is very huge, and the construction cycle is longer than that of the navy. For example, establishing a global satellite system requires a year of destruction, and the Republic and the US authorities must avoid unnecessary consumption. Therefore, when setting "space military facilities" as a strategic goal, the two sides have to compromise in the form of a secret agreement.
Without Lao Yu Deming's words, Du Junyong knew the main content of this secret agreement.
In fact, over the years, there has been a saying in the international community that the Republic and the US authorities have set a "minimum principle" for future "space warfare". Military operations within the scope stipulated by the "minimum principle" are acceptable and permitted. As long as it does not exceed this range, attacks on the opponent's space military targets will not cause war.
As an officer of the Tianjun Army, Du Junyong naturally knew this rumor.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but become even more curious.
"Now you know what is in the truck behind you?"
"Anti-satellite weapons?"
"It can be said that. But it is not completely accurate." Lao Yude took out his cigarette, "Do you smoke?"
Du Junyong quickly took out the cigarette and said, "Smoke me, this is a special cigarette I brought from the headquarters, specially customized for senior generals such as commanders."
"Is that so? I'm not polite." Lao Yude took the whole pack of cigarettes with a smile, and lit one first without hesitation.
Du Junyong didn't mind. He didn't smoke before, but he was influenced by a group of smokers and became a smoker.
"I started to say it. I haven't seen that secret agreement, but I can guess the important contents of it." Lao Yude took two puffs of cigarettes and said, "The reason is very simple. My ten years of youth are all used in this project. As far as I know, you stayed in the staff training class for two years, and after I stayed in the logistics training class for one year, I was ranked first in the class because of the assessment. So I was very lucky to go to a special team with two other officers. Ten years of life without knowing the taste of meat started when I was a kid. Maybe you won't believe that I am almost forty years old, and I have never had a romantic relationship."
"All right, it's like you've been locked up for ten years."
"It's almost the same," Lao Yude smiled and said, "Of course, compared to jail, not only is the quality of life very guaranteed, but he can also go out to the Maldives to bask in the sun for a few days under the supervision of a group of agents. Enjoy the sunshine beach, but I can guarantee that those beach beauties who left a deep impression on us are definitely agents of the Military Intelligence Bureau."
Du Junyong was stunned for a moment and said, "You are content, what are you doing?"
"I want to know so much?"
"If you like to say it, you will say it. If you don't like to say it, I will go back to report it when you arrive at the destination."
"Okay, old classmates finally met, how could they leave as soon as they say they were gone? And when you arrive at the destination, you may not be able to leave as soon as you want."
Du Junyong was speechless. In his opinion, Lao Yude must have psychological problems, and it was a psychological problem caused by holding it back.
"Okay, I won't catch your appetite, seeing you so anxious." Lao Yude lit the second cigarette quickly and said, "Don't mind, you usually rely on this thing to refresh yourself when working overtime. Moreover, the smell of this special cigarette is too light, and I always feel a little worse when I smoke. The new address of this website has been changed to: Exorcist, please log in to read it if you delete it!
Du Junyong smiled and shook his head. He said, "You love to suck, I'll give you a look and let you suck enough."
"Okay, it's off topic again." Lao Yude smiled and said, "I'm serious to you. You know that our country and the United States have listed space military facilities as strategic facilities. In other words, if the Americans dare to attack our satellites, we will throw out all strategic nuclear weapons. Even if the United States' strategic defense system can intercept all missiles and warheads, it will also cause a large number of nuclear warheads to explode in low-Earth orbit, resulting in the end of all outer space facilities. The result will be a kind of intent. I'm afraid no one will dare to think of a loss. We won't do it. So, is there any way to paralyze the Americans' military satellite system without triggering a full-scale war?"
“Fengxia?”
"By the way, it's just interference, Lao Yude smiled and said, "Of course, you're not a technical person, so you can't tell me the reason. The interference is right, but how to interfere? You must know that the space target closest to us is more than 300 kilometers away, and there is a whole atmosphere in the middle. Interference is easy to say, but difficult to do. It would be even more difficult to leave no traces and not allow the Americans to get the excuse to throw all nuclear warheads at us."
"What are you doing in this area?"
Lao Yude nodded and said, "Before I joined this project, my former project director, that is, my mentor, had been preparing for a total war, and the project was also part of the national strategic defense system. To put it bluntly, it was to use lasers, particle beam weapons, high-energy microwaves and other energy weapons to deal with satellites in low-Earth orbit. The problem is that after we signed a secret agreement with the United States, this approach that was similar to reckless would not work. We must be more civilized and more polite. This is also my joining this project.
The first mission of the purpose is to reduce the power of energy weapons, blind, burn electronic components, block communication and other methods to paralyze the American military satellites, especially reconnaissance satellites. As mentioned earlier, there is a problem with doing this. After all, it is not difficult to catch a satellite from space now. Moreover, we can't control the Americans' bringing their own satellites back, so it is easy to get caught by the Americans. Even if there is no full-scale war, the Americans will change their colors. At that time, we will have to eat coptis chinensis."
"That is to say, we need to use a more civilized way to deal with the Americans."
"That's right. It seems you can join our project team, too."
Du Junyong rolled his eyes and decided to find an opportunity to see a psychiatrist.
"It's a pity that Professor Bai died before seeing the final result. I heard that he worked in the research institute for a long time and was exposed to high-energy microwave radiation for a long time. He got cancer and was already in the late stage when he found out." Lao Yude sighed and said. "I'm not afraid of you making jokes. We are not afraid of trouble, but we are just afraid of being done before we get results. To be honest, I have been working in the research institute for six years and sent away eight colleagues. Except for a young man who came home to visit his relatives for a short time, he hit himself to death because he drove a express train when he was going home to visit relatives, the other seven are in advanced cancer and have no chance to struggle."
"Old Lao, you won't spend it,"
"Don't talk nonsense. I had a full physical examination on the Internet. There was no problem except for a polyp in my stomach." Lao Yude glared at Du Junyong and said, "Anyway, that's it. After Professor Bai left, I became the team leader. I took on the heavy responsibility of working in a high-radiation environment for twelve hours every day, and bought a high-insurance for my mother."
"You still have the intention to buy insurance?"
"Why can't I buy it? I'm the only child, and my dad has long passed away without a wife and children. If I had something, how could my mom live?"
"Come on. Serious
Lao Yude sighed again and said, "You don't understand the specific technical things after you say them, and you can't tell me the reason. You really have to be interested. When you have time, you can let you see the detailed technical information. Anyway, when I became the project leader, this project has made a breakthrough, and most of the credit is Professor Bai. The problem is that we only have a set of test equipment, and we have only conducted fixed-point interference tests for our military satellites, and have not yet conducted regional interference tests for the entire constellation."
"What's the meaning?"
"That is, this is the first regular test, and it is a practical test."
Du Junyong immediately widened his eyes.
"There is no way. This is the order from the above, and I heard it is the order from the commander who gave you cigarettes."
"Pei Chengyi. General Pei?"
Lao Yude nodded and said, "In the words of the military intelligence agency who refused to tell me the name, this operation is only successful and not failure. Only after we reach the destination will we receive specific combat orders. Our mission is to start this set of equipment within the specified time, so that the several reconnaissance satellites above our heads will fail, creating the most favorable conditions for launching a war. If I am not wrong, your mission will go to me to issue combat orders."
Du Junyong then realized that his mission was indeed to issue combat orders.
According to Pei Chengyi's instructions, he will follow the secret force to pay attention to the destination. At that time, people will naturally contact him and give him a set of confidential communication equipment. At the beginning of the war, the Joint Command will issue combat orders through a confidential communication line, and his mission is to accurately convey the combat orders to the commander who performs special tasks, namely Colonel Lao Yude.
Du Junyong didn't take it seriously at that time. Now it seems that this is definitely the first shot of the war, and the most mysterious first shot.
Thinking of this, Du Junyong couldn't help but look back at the truck convoy following behind.
Chapter completed!
