Chapter 26 The Threat of War
It can be said that letting Yan Jingyu be the Premier of the State Council is considered a test for Wang Yuanqing.
No matter what, no one doubts Yan Jingyu's ability.
It is precisely because Yan Jingyu realized that at this time, Shudan should not give up on the Middle East, but should also pay close attention to the situation in the Middle East.
In a sense, whether the surrounding problems can be solved before the year is directly related to whether the United States can be restrained in the Middle East. Therefore, when Pei Chengyi mentioned Syria and Iraq, Yan Jingbei seemed very embarrassed. To be precise, it was a dilemma. The new address of this site has been changed to: Just a yang...8. Please log in to the lion!
The reality is that the Republic must make a difference in the Middle East.
Reason tells Yan Jingyu that he should never easily interfere in the disputes in the Middle East.
After pondering for a while, Yan Jingyu said to Pei Chengyi when he opened another pack of cigarettes: "As you said, the situation in the Middle East is about to lose control, Syria wants to regain lost territory, and Iraq wants to annex Kuwait."
Du Chengyi nodded and did not respond.
"This is indeed two big troubles, and you also know that with our current situation, the consequences of being involved in the Middle East dispute are very serious, even beyond our tolerance."
"More importantly, any conflict has the potential to trigger a world war."
Yan Jingyu's brows jumped a few times, and his eyes stopped on Pei Chengyi.
Pei Chengyi did not avoid the head of state's eyes and said bluntly: "Everyone knows that with our country's "national strategic defense system and the United States' "national missile defense system, the formation of comprehensive combat capabilities around the New Year, and the second phase of the London Treaty reduction work is completed at the end of the year. As soon as possible, the conditions for the world war will mature at the beginning of the year at the latest. The key is how to detonate this war. Although there are many
Many hot spots, such as the border dispute between Argentina and Brazil in northern Mesopotamia, the war in Nigeria, the border dispute between Ethiopia and Eritrea, the territorial waters between the Philippines and Indonesia, and the border war between Morocco and Mauritania in Western Sahara, etc., the disputes in the disputes are either not enough to cause war, or are not worthy of us or Miguchi. The only thing that is really possible to trigger a world war is the dispute in the Middle East."
Although Pei Chengyi said so seriously, Yan Jingyu did not look surprised at all.
There is no doubt that Pei Chengyi did not exaggerate the facts.
As early as the end of the year, shortly after the armistice negotiations in the Middle East War began, many news media claimed that the "armace of the Middle East War" was just another "risen truce period." Later, when evaluating the significant value of the "armace of the Armistice Agreement, Al Jazeera quoted the French-Prussian War before the outbreak of World War I, the German-British naval arms race, and overseas colonial disputes, and compared it with it. According to Al Jazeera, the Middle East War in Secret Year was the first head-on confrontation between the Republic and the United States in order to compete for world hegemony. As both sides figured out the background of each other and grasped the other's foundation.
This foreign policy, if you don’t work hard, a second war will break out in the year, and it is very likely that the Third World War, led by the Republic and the United States, will trigger the Third World War. In order to improve the credibility of the news, Al Jazeera also made a very bold prediction of the "Third World War", believing that this war that is enough to change the fate of all mankind is likely to break out around the years, with few deviations in the past. Because of the special relationship between Al Jazeera and the Republic, especially with the Republic's intelligence agencies, many people believe that these reports on Al Jazeera are from the Republic authorities, which is warning the United States and creating an atmosphere for the Third World War.
In short, at the end of the century, no one thinks that world wars cannot break out.
The key is still technology, because without major technological breakthroughs, the devastating threat of nuclear weapons to human civilization cannot be overcome. World wars cannot break out.
This round of technological breakthroughs occurred in the 1990s.
As we all know, since the beginning of the century, the United States has made every effort to build a "national missile defense system" and even once forced major opponents such as Russia and the Republic to a strategic blind spot. After the year of the year, the Republic followed the United States and began to build a "national strategic defense system". Soon afterwards, Russia also began to build a similar strategic defense system. Until the year of the jiangchen year, that is, after the Peninsula War, France, Germany and Italy proposed the "European strategic security defense system. The construction and design of the "European strategic security defense system" based on the EU military integration, and all four major strategic defense systems in the world were released. It was from this time that the shadow of the world war once again fell on humans.
This is true, many countries oppose the issue of "full destruction of nuclear weapons". The new address of this website has been changed to: Just a moment...8. Please log in to the valve!
You should know that after World War II, the world situation could be stable for hundreds of years without a global war. One of the main reasons is the effect of nuclear weapons on the world war. Although nuclear weapons have the ability to destroy human civilization, under the threat of mutual destruction, no nuclear power will have the courage to provoke a world war in any pound, and a country without nuclear weapons will be more difficult to shake the international community of nuclear powers.
As nuclear weapons exit the stage of history, no other weapon of destruction can curb world wars.
Of course, the technology that has led to the withdrawal of nuclear weapons from the stage of history is still increasingly advanced.
The concentrated embodiment of these advanced technologies is the "strategic defense system." The most representative ones are the "national strategic defense system" of the Republic and the United States' "national missile defense system." Stimulated by the Middle East War, the Republic and the United States have accelerated the construction of strategic defense systems since the Chinese New Year, and have formulated the goal of completing the last round of construction work in Tianxian to enable the strategic defense system to form practical combat capabilities.
Why choose Tian Nian?
Based on the economic development of the Republic and the United States, Tiannian can digest the problems arising from the Middle East War and start preparing for the next war. Because the strategic defense system needs a series of tests and tests after its completion, and the second phase of the London Treaty reduction will not be completed until the end of the year, so by the beginning of the year, both superpowers have completed their real preparations.
The key is whether the strategic defense systems of the Republic and the United States can provide practical and effective protection.
According to the defense blue book released by the Republic authorities at the beginning of the year, by the end of the year, with the full implementation of the third phase of the "National Strategic Defense System" project, a comprehensive defense capability will be formed to intercept several outer space targets at the same time, or intercept thugs in batches to persuade targets in the atmosphere. Because after the first phase of the London Treaty is completed, the number of nuclear warheads in the Republic and the United States is less than 10,000 yuan. Even if pre-war mobilization is carried out, the number of nuclear warheads that can be used in a strike operation will not exceed the strong ones, so the Republic's strategic defense system is enough to withstand the United States' strategic strike. Because other nuclear countries are unlikely to launch strikes at the same time, the Republic's strategic defense system is enough to intercept all the thrown nuclear warheads in batches.
Although the United States' "national missile defense system" will not form corresponding interception capabilities until the end of Tian's year, the thug's year gap will not have much impact on the strategic balance between the two superpowers. In any case, the Republic cannot prepare for war before Tian's year end.
It can be seen that the interception capability of the strategic defense system is crucial.
The problem is that the command system itself is also a military system. It is also the point of the opponent's strike against strategic strikes. The strategic defense system is even the number one target of strikes. Not to mention, in all the combat plans formulated by the General Staff of the Republic regarding the World War, the national missile defense system that strikes the United States is placed first, and all require that it be paralyzed when the war begins, at least part of it should be paralyzed, and then consider strategic strikes on the United States under appropriate circumstances, forcing the US authorities to declare defeat before mobilizing the war.
In this way, leaders of both sides have to leave a way out for themselves.
To put it bluntly, it is to raise the threshold for strategic defense.
That's why in the fiscal year of the Daoshi Year, the Republic's authorities added an additional RMB to the national strategic defense system, requiring the strengthening of the strategic defense system's anti-strike capabilities based on the third phase construction goal, and to have the foundation, sea-based and air-based defense systems to fully intercept the incoming strategic ballistic missiles and nuclear warheads in the case of a sudden blow and being completely paralyzed by the sky-based defense system to ensure the safety of the local area. There is no doubt that RMB is not enough. In the following years, the Republic allocated nearly one trillion yuan for this every year, and the allocation in the fiscal year exceeded the thugs' Yuan and Yugong billion yuan. If everything goes well, by the beginning of the year, the Republic's strategic defense system will have "re-defense capabilities."
Mu Yong doubted that the US authorities' actions were more active.
Because the construction progress of the US national missile defense system has been slower than that of the Republic's national strategic defense system, in the Liao fiscal year, the US authorities added about 400 million yuan of special allocations to the national missile defense system, and in the following years, it required that "re-defense capability" should not be formed at the latest by the end of the year 2000 million yuan.
It can be seen that "re-defense capability" has become an important indicator of the combat capability of the strategic defense system. The new address of this site has been changed to: Just a moment...8. Please log in to the valve!
Of course, both the Republic and the United States have chosen to make the strategic defense system form practical capabilities at the beginning of previous years, and there is definitely a reason.
The most direct reason is the requirements of the London Treaty for the second phase reduction plan. If everything goes well, by the end of the 2nd year, that is, when the second phase reduction work stipulated in the London Treaty is completed, the number of nuclear warheads retained by the Republic is strong, and the number of nuclear warheads that can be used for the first round of assault will not exceed Guan Mei. It can be seen that even if the "re-defense capability" of the strategic defense system of both sides is only one-third of the normal situation, it can intercept all nuclear warheads fired by the opponent in a full-scale war. In fact, the minimum requirements of the "re-defense capability" of the Republic and the United States for the "re-defense capability" of the strategic defense system are as high as two-thirds of the normal situation. In this way, even if half of the intercept systems that constitute "re-defense capability" are paralyzed, the interception task can be completed.
There is no doubt that for a country, this is already a very high insurance factor.
Although everyone knows that even if the strategic defense system plays a role to ensure the absolute security of the two superpowers, and even some important allies, it will pose a major blow to human civilization. For example, most of the artificial facilities in outer space will become targets of attack in war or be destroyed by nuclear warheads detonated in outer space, from the perspective of the security of the superpower itself, as long as the local area will not be hit, and the major allies in the surrounding areas will not be hit, then sacrificing some of the interests to defeat the opponent is definitely an optional means.
More importantly, as long as the shield is strong enough, it will make the opponent hesitate about whether to use the spear.
In other words, if the opponent can realize that using the spear will not only fail to win, but will also be hit with a more cruel retaliatory blow and suffer more serious losses, both the Republic and the United States will have to worry about it in actual combat.
From the perspective of the struggle of a great power, as long as one side converges when using nuclear weapons, it can have an impact on the other side, thus making both sides worry about it.
In the words of some strategic experts in the Western Games International: During the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union, the huge nuclear arsenal that was enough to destroy the earth hundreds of times was maintained world peace. During the Cold War between the United States, nuclear terror was no longer the strategic defense system that maintained world peace.
Because the strategic defense system is a direct reflection of various important factors related to the comprehensive strength of a country, such as scientific and technological strength, industrial productivity, comprehensive economic strength, and national will, the competition between the Republic and the United States in the field of strategic defense systems is the ultimate struggle between the two superpowers.
It is precisely this that we can guess the time when the world war breaks out based on the progress of the construction of the strategic defense system between the two sides.
It is precisely because of the decisive significance of the strategic defense system that world wars become inevitable.
