Volume 7 Peninsula Smoke Chapter 26 Leaders

When Cunxun called, it was already early in the morning of the 9th!!

Wang Yuanqing did not go to the Military Intelligence Bureau or the General Staff, so he asked Jiaoba Mountain to make a pot of strong tea and wait for the final result.

Although Wang Yuanqing was not a soldier, he participated in military operations many times when he served as Ji Youguo's secretary, especially the planning and command of secret military operations. He became a doctor after a long illness. His rich experience allowed Wang Yuanqing to have more or less knowledge of special operations and knew that the operation would end before dawn.

Wang Yuanqing didn't think much about the result.

One thing is certain, if the "Japanese Special Forces" exchange fire with the North Korean army near Kaesong and then evacuate south of the ceasefire line, it will definitely make the situation on the peninsula more tense.

When arranging work, Wang Yuanqing considered this.

It can be seen from this that Wang Yuanqing is an absolute "war pro-strife". Compared with Ji Youguo and Zhao Rundong, Wang Yuanqing is not only stronger, but also more proactive in dealing with peripheral issues involving national security and national interests.

In the eyes of outsiders, this is because Wang Yuanqing, Ji Youguo and Zhao Rundong are not of the same generation.

Ji Youguo and Zhao Rundong were born in the 1950s and belonged to the "first generation" of the Republic. Because they have experienced several major periods in the Republic, whether it is Ji Youguo, Zhao Rundong, or even Peng Maobang and Pan Yunsheng, who have always been tough, they are very cautious when dealing with surrounding issues, and often only make heavy blows when there is no way out. The difference is that Ji Youguo's ability to control the overall situation is far more than Zhao Rundong. Even if he responds passively, he can turn passive into active.

In fact, the "generation gap" is not the main problem.

As a third-generation citizen of the Republic where he was born in the 1970s, Wang Yuanqing experienced the "great change" of the Republic. Compared with the previous two generations, Wang Yuanqing's generation is not only more adventurous, good at pioneering, and knows how to pursue. He is also more confident and self-reliant. His ideas are very open-minded. As a national leader, ideas are not a decisive factor in dealing with international affairs closely related to national interests.

The decision of policy is the national strength.

It can be said that Ji Youguo has been striving to improve the strength of the Republic. Zhao Rundong did the same thing. The two did not focus on surrounding issues, nor did they actively expand the sphere of influence of the Republic. The two generations of leaders worked hard and laid a solid foundation for successors.

2~The set of important data may be more telling.

In 2010, the Republic's GDP was 36 trillion yuan, equivalent to 54 trillion US dollars. Although it is the third largest economic entity in the world, its total volume is only 26% of the United States; in 20177, the Republic's GDP was close to 72 trillion yuan, equivalent to 13 trillion US dollars. It became the second largest economic entity in the world. The total volume is 71% of the United States; in 2023, the Republic's GDP was 1c.7 billion yuan, equivalent to 24 trillion US dollars. The total volume is 97% of the United States. If the growth rate of 74% continues to be maintained in 2024, the Republic will surpass the United States and become the world's largest economic entity.

In 2010, the per capita disposable income of the Republic was approximately RMB 18,700, equivalent to US$2,800. It is the United States; in 20177, the per capita disposable income of the Republic was approximately RMB 7,600. It is 11% of the United States; in 2c23, the per capita disposable income of the Republic was approximately RMB 68,000, equivalent to US$15,100. It is 18% of the United States. According to the most optimistic estimate, by 2050, the per capita disposable income of the Republic will be the same as that of the United States; even the most conservative estimate will reach this level in 2065.

Whether it is overall national strength or per capita strength, the development speed of the Republic is amazing.

It can be said that Ji Youguo and Zhao Rundong left a generous "family property" for their successors.

Only with strength can you accomplish great things.

In the case of relatively backward economy, the Republic must work hard and concentrate its efforts on domestic construction. As the economic strength gradually improves, the Republic needs sufficient resources and markets. It is impossible to only pay attention to domestic construction to meet the needs of national development, and it is even more impossible to effectively safeguard national interests.

In this context, any leader will adjust the country's basic strategies.

Zhao Rundong gradually handed over power to Wang Yuanqing because Wang Yuanqing's strategy can maximize the protection and realization of national interests, rather than physical condition that forced him to hand over power. If Wang Yuanqing did not show enough ability, as long as Zhao Rundong still had a breath, he would not do so.

Having enough strength is just the driving force for the country to move forward.

To take the right path, a very clear purpose is needed.

This is exactly what Wang Yuanqing performed better than Ji Youguo and Zhao Rundong.

No matter what he does, Wang Yuanqing's purpose is very clear.

When he went to the local area, Wang Yuanqing made every effort in the Guangxi pilot work and proved his talents; when he returned to the central government, his status had not been determined, and he avoided conflicts of interest with Zhao Rundong everywhere; after his status was determined, he made great efforts and quickly gained recognition and appreciation from the older generation of leaders, including Zhao Rundong. These all prove that Wang Yuanqing had already set his goals and had been striving for them.

In terms of foreign policy, Wang Yuanqing's goal concept is even more amazing.

Not to mention the distant future, during the period after the Li Xiaowen betrayal of North Korea, Wang Yuanqing was aggressive everywhere.

It gives people the feeling that even if the United States, Japan and South Korea do not provoke wars, they will trigger wars. Although this is a largely illusion, it can fully reflect Wang Yuanqing's initiative and goal concepts.

Since war will break out sooner or later, all work is aimed at winning the war!

In order to achieve the goal, all favorable conditions must be created for the Republic. For example, detonate war at the most appropriate time, participate in war in the most reasonable way, win the war at the smallest cost, and gain the greatest benefit after the war.

These qualities of Wang Yuanqing are Zhao Rundong's main flaws.

It has to be admitted that Ji Youguo had long seen Wang Yuanqing's characteristics and knew that at some point in the future, the Republic needs a leader like Wang Yuanqing to point out the way for Wang Yuanqing and make relevant arrangements before leaving office.

As for whether Ji Youguo has exerted influence on Zhao Rundong, it is unknown.

Of course, Wang Yuanqing has shortcomings.

Among the three main qualities that a national leader must possess, the "power values" and "goal concepts" are clearly reflected in Wang Yuanqing, but the "development and change concepts" are not shown. Because he has not yet officially "ruled", it is not appropriate to make a judgment on whether he has this quality.

In a small way, what Wang Yuanqing lacks the most is his experience in governing the country.

Peng Maobang and Pan Yunsheng firmly supported Wang Yuanqing's return to the central government to serve as an important position. In addition to consolidating Wang Yuanqing's position in the decision-making circle, the main purpose was to use Zhao Rundong's second term to allow Wang Yuanqing to accumulate enough experience in governing the country and lay the foundation for the future formal "ruling".

In addition to the support of Ji You, the country, Wang Yuanqing's ability to gain today's status is the most critical factor.

It was not until dawn that Li Cunxun called.

"What!?" Wang Yuanqing's expression changed drastically, "Is there any casualties... that's good, when can I withdraw... OK, prepare... Yes, I'll come here right away... No, I'll just come here myself... OK, no need to bother, I'll have breakfast on the road... OK, OK, that's it."

After Wang Yuanqing put down the phone, Ye Zhisheng stood up. "How is the situation?"

"The person was rescued, but he encountered some trouble in the operation." Wang Yuanqing sighed, "Fortunately, it was a small problem and not too serious. The reception troops have already set off, and all the personnel participating in the operation can be withdrawn before noon."

"Severe casualties?"

"Only a few people were injured, no one was killed." Wang Yuanqing smiled and said, "Go and prepare quickly. We will go to the Military Intelligence Bureau immediately and have breakfast on the way."

Ye Zhisheng didn't talk much, and immediately went to find Jiao Bashan and the guards.

After 0 o'clock, Wang Yuanqing took Ye Zhisheng and Jiaoba Mountain to set off.

When he arrived at the Military Intelligence Bureau, Li Cunxun had already asked someone to prepare the conference room.

"Just received the news, the first batch of operation personnel, our two spies and rescue targets, had already withdrawn and arrived at the air force base at about nine o'clock." Li Cunxun was not too long-winded, "I have sent someone to take them back and I will be responsible for the interrogation work myself."

"Is this necessary?"

"The sooner the rebellion work is completed, the more beneficial it is for us." Li Cunxun paused and said, "After the North Korean intelligence and security department arrested Ryohei Tani, it eliminated the Japanese intelligence website where it cooperated with Ryohei Tani Tani's operations and arrested dozens of Japanese agents. The news has not been spread yet. As long as Ryohei Tani returns to Japan as soon as possible, it will make the Japanese National Intelligence Agency believe that he has not fallen into the hands of North Korea. After a few days, he will have no value."

Wang Yuanqing nodded and agreed with Li Cunxun's approach.

"The second batch of personnel will be withdrawn soon." Li Cunxun noticed that Wang Yuanqing's expression was a little tired, and changed his words, "I will report the situation in time after they come back."

"Nothing, let's wait here for a while."

Li Cunxun sighed secretly and said nothing.

"Have you mobilized resources to monitor the movements of the North Korean and South Korean troops?"

"It has been arranged long ago." Li Cunxun looked at his watch, "In fifteen minutes, the first batch of satellite reconnaissance photos will be received, and before eight o'clock, the message sent back by the reconnaissance plane will be received."

Wang Yuanqing nodded. "It seems that everything that should be arranged has been arranged."

"The General Staff has also contacted us. If there is a conflict between the two armies, they will respond as soon as possible."

"You mean, the General Staff has already formulated a combat plan?"

"It is just a draft, the detailed combat plan has not been completed. Military action can be taken at any time if necessary."

Wang Yuanqing pondered for a while and said to Ye Zhisheng: "You go to the General Staff Department and ask about the situation. If you are ready, let Xiang Yinghui hold an combat meeting in the afternoon."

"This afternoon?"

"Of course, is it still tomorrow afternoon?"

Ye Zhisheng didn't ask much, nodded and agreed.

Compared with several older generation leaders, Wang Yuanqing's other advantage is his energy.
