Chapter 672: Military and politicians

In a dilapidated brick-wood-structured earth house, agent Jiang Yali is working hard to fiddle with the machine in his hand.

After entering a string of letters on the keyboard, he pressed the "Confirm" key, and a short series of digital pulse signals were sent out to the sky. He hoped that the signals would smoothly reach those unfailed space platforms and transmit these extremely important data to the CIA headquarters located on the other side of the earth.

"Oh, no! Damn it! No!" he murmured in a low voice, almost suffocating his anger.

The indicator light shows that although the message just now has been sent out, it is difficult to say whether it can be received. He tried twice, but still did not hear a prompt tone indicating that the sending was successful.

"The satellite must be broken and can't receive information anymore!" he thought.

Generally speaking, the satellite cluster in the sky can provide instant communication services to the ground through cross-connection. However, in this special period, only one "Shenmu-39" satellite can receive the information sent by him.

The agent reassembled the pile of high-tech things and repeatedly checked the exquisite, x-ray-proof compartment in the box, but the receiver still didn't react. A few minutes later, he could only sit in the darkness in a depressed manner.

This bad method can only be connected by luck! At this moment, whether there is a risk or not, he must leave the country and find a safe fiber optic line to send these emergency information.

A few days ago, he received a warning that he could no longer rely on the "Shenmu-39" satellite for connection, and several satellites in the earth's orbit had broken down one after another.

If you are lucky enough, you may be able to get in touch with the ground intermittently at some time through these satellite clusters. But for him, and several other senior agents, only this communication satellite can match their specific equipment.

"Damn it, why didn't we prepare a backup system?!" He complained while lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze.

In fact, he knew the answer: renting these commercial satellites is much cheaper than building a new space platform specifically for Zhengfu. Anyway, all the information sent by agents has been encrypted, and to outsiders, they are just some boring emails.

Therefore, the government is very happy to use this cheap method for information transmission. In addition, the satellite technology of private enterprises far exceeds the technical level that the federal government can provide. Moreover, even if the Nanjing government is willing to invest funds in this field, their satellite level cannot keep up with a few large private enterprises, not to mention that Nanjing has no plans at all.

But tonight, he, the most valuable agent of the CIA, wanted to send these important information about national security through these commercial satellites, but ultimately failed.

In this case, he couldn't sleep at all, so he simply got up and packed up his things. These things were placed here in the evening, and now he had to clean up everything so that the uninvited guests could notice that he had been back.

After packing up, he looked at the whole room carefully and made sure that there were no clues left, so he quickly walked out the door. The car was still a few hundred meters away, but the engine, which was still steaming just now, had already become cold.

He inserted the car key and activated the engine again, heading towards the western border. He thought: "It seems that there are still remnants of the lurking German Nazi Party here. They may be really ready to launch a nuclear war against Israel, Europe or some other country."

"But I can't bring any warning messages to our people in advance... Damn it! Those cheap commercial communication satellites are probably the most expensive and deadliest thing in the world now!"

In the original time and space, the State of Israel was established with the support of the United States in 1948, but in this time and space, this world, when the war was still burning in 1946, the Zionists established the State of Israel at all costs.

It seems that because of China's strong rise, the United States feels that its hegemony has suffered a strong setback, so it has to resist the opposition of the entire Arab state to help the Jews establish a sovereign and complete nation-state here.

It not only wants to lay chess pieces between Europe and Africa, but also curb China's development throughout the Arabian Peninsula. After all, according to the previous agreement, the UK ceded the place to Hualian, which also included half of the management rights of the Suez Canal.

This is not in line with the interests of the United States in Europe and the Mediterranean, so the United States quickly relied on the establishment of the State of Israel. Moreover, due to China's unfriendly attitude towards the Jews, the State of Israel could only rely closely on the help of the United States, which was enough to maintain the entire front.

Two completely different social ideologies, it should be said that they are two completely opposite civilized concepts that have started conflicts all over the world.

This is the prelude to the Cold War, and the confrontation and dialogue between nuclear countries will be staged.

June 10, 1947, Hualian Central Intelligence Bureau Guangzhou Headquarters, Communications Center

The shift supervisor looked at the decrypted message he had just received and said angrily: "What exactly does this member of the BioInformation Committee want to say? It seems that we only got some of it."

"This is a stump for me! That's why I took it over and showed it to you." The communications technician shrugged and said, and secretly glanced at the watch of the supervisor - the day's shift was about to come, and he was ready to leave here.

However, before leaving, he asked carefully: "Well, do you need me to translate the content on this message again?"

"This doesn't need to be translated again. The 'digital signal' won't lie, remember? This message is the same as what we have received these days. Although I don't understand what it really means, since it's labeled 'most urgent', I have to send it to the command center as fast as possible."

During this period, they had received many similar strange messages. The combat commander hoped to see everything from the other side of the world immediately, so all of this information was quickly handed over to the commander.

But whether it is the CIA supervisor or the agents who are now in Iran and driving a car toward the Iraqi border in the morning fog, they never dreamed that this incomplete but very urgent information would be leaked.

On the same day, the Chinese Army Strategy Command and the Commander's Office.

"Sir, Brigadier General Lee Seung-bi's phone number."

"Well, take it." Xu Jiangwen said as he walked through his assistant's room. He picked up the receiver that was flipped on the table and placed his navy jacket on the chair.

"Yun Tao? Thank goodness, you rushed back so soon. I heard that we are in a lot of new trouble now. Zhang Liming's men received some unconfirmed intelligence, saying that our overseas satellite ground base station was deliberately damaged. The Intelligence Bureau is even more worried that our country will be attacked in such a way."

"Ah, sir, your news is more informative than mine. I should have known this, but who is Zhang Liming?" Lian Yuntao clamped his phone with his shoulders and ears, freeing up a hand to search for the documents in his hand. Before that, he had just walked out of the west gate of the cabinet hall.

Xu Jiangwen slowly sat back on the leather chair behind the huge glass table and looked out from an open window - the grass at Kaohsiung Air Force Base in Taiwan was fragrant, but he was not in the mood to enjoy the beautiful scenery.

"Zhang Liming, commander-in-chief of the Hualian Air Force. After he came out of the missile force, he began to engage in the space industry. Maybe you have seen him in the Air Force office before." Xu Jiangwen said.

Lian Yuntao, who was breathing rapidly, cursed a few words in a low voice, and then re-packed the red file marked "highly confidential" under his arm. "No, I have never seen that guy. Hi, I said, people like me and you... have never had any interaction with those monster guys who are doing rockets."

"What's worse is that we know nothing about these space affairs. All we can do is fly the plane, press the bomb drop button, charge in battles, and then get those useless medals... It's really hell! Who would have thought we would get in touch with these space things? For us, combat is the most important thing!"

"Yuntao, damn it! What are you complaining about here?" Xu Jiangwen took a cup of hot coffee handed over by his assistant Anya, said "thank you" to Anya with a lip, and blinked ambiguously at her.

"Space! Damn space! What we call space forces - there are planes, satellites and spacecraft. As long as they are in a stable condition, we can get accurate information from space orbit! However, we cannot accurately contact these space forces now, but we still have to pay for these broken things every day!"

Lian Yuntao was obviously a little crazy today and was very impatient. Xu Jiangwen couldn't help laughing as he heard his complaints, thinking to himself: "It seems that this guy who has always been very stable must have returned to Nanjing, and he has already complained about the current space problem."

"Okay, maybe we can consider letting the navy get involved, but it's too late to say this now." Xu Jiangwen laughed out loud, "Now we are all grasshoppers on a vine, so don't fight in the middle, otherwise those miscellaneous people will be on the side to make a profit."

"Do you have any letters on the simulation combat experiment?" Lian Yuntao asked. He threw the stack of documents on the table, then kicked the office door hard with his heel and closed it.

"There are some progress," Xu Jiangwen said. "General Li's red team is doubting that perhaps there may be any criminal acts or terrorist acts behind the damage to these satellites. He has ruled out the possibility of crimes committed by his own personnel. Boyd's orbital analyst pointed out that if there is indeed an attack, it is very likely that it will come from the Caucasus."

"But now, apart from the National Security Council intercepting that cell phone call, we haven't found any more correlations between these situations."

Lian Yuntao struggled to squeeze into the middle of his broken bookshelf and the table, and sat on the creaking gray chair. It seemed that the working environment of an admiral in the National Security Agency was far inferior to that of his old executive officer's office in Nanjing.

"General, I just made a statement about the latest situation in space," he replied. "The President wanted to know what is going on and asked a few questions about the status quo of our system - not only in terms of business but also in terms of national security. Oh, by the way, he was very unhappy with the progress of the current investigation."

"Because he thinks that the National Aeronautics and Space Administration has lost control in your simulated operations. You know what happened yesterday afternoon, and the opposition has made a big fuss in the media interview. Come on, General Xu! This is simply an ambush in space!"

"Hey, my friend! If I can control all the people involved in the simulation operations and let them unify their activities under my command, then my title is 'Ditor of the Strategic Command'. In fact, the opposition did this to help us and gave us some first-hand information! We don't have much time to deal with political reactions now, and what we need is to start acting immediately and let politics go to the hell!"

"I understand, sir. You need to act immediately, but you have not received support from relevant policies, right? The Head of State just praised the strategic choices explained by the two participants in the simulation combat experiment. He planned to tell General Li's inference during an interview on the national television station later that his assistant was drafting a speech for him. Maybe you can see this on tonight's TV show."

"Our strategic choices? What are those so-called strategic choices?" Xu Jiangwen's voice suddenly improved.

"The strategic choice made by the Asia-Pacific Security Council. Didn't they propose to suspend assistance programs for regions and countries that deliberately destroy space systems?"

"What, Lao Xu? We have never considered such unrealistic ideas! That is just the wishful thinking of those young boys who are not dry! The so-called solution of Ya'an Club is nothing but nonsense, but the view that the boyd system has abandoned early."

"Since our team quickly launched a simulated practical operation, we have never considered such an idea, let alone reporting it to Nanjing!" Xu Jiangwen stood up and paced back and forth in the room. He suddenly became very irritable. "Now even the domestic political environment is about to lose control!"

"I understand, Jiang Wen." Lian Yuntao continued, trying to calm the former flight leader, "but there are some guys from the National Security Council who are disdainful of strategic choices in simulated operations, but are very supportive of those wrong views. When I know this, it's too late to notify you."

"The Ya'an Association will only delay time, but cannot do anything useful!" Xu Jiangwen became angry, "Come on, Yun Tao, no matter who is plaguing our space shuttle, he will become our enemy. Even if we hide to the ends of the world, we will inevitably pull out their tails!"

"These satellites are the foundation of our security, and we must protect them well! If we can't solve the satellite problems, then perhaps out of self-defense, we will have to force the shutdown of space resources of domestic private enterprises."

"I will also bring you good news, Lao Xu, you will definitely like it very much: the Head of State signed a special combat command that authorized us to track down the locations of satellite attacks. The Strategic Command will be responsible for all the strategic deployment of this special operation, and you will also receive special assistance from the commanders of the European region."

"That's great! We have been looking forward to this for a long time. Oh, by the way, how are we negotiating with the three major domestic groups?" Xu Jiangwen turned his head out the window and looked at the distant horizon of the inner central plain.

"They reluctantly agreed to take tough measures against all threats in space. However, the Internal Affairs Office of the China Economic and Economic Union Minister Yi Zhongming hopes that the association can send their observers to us." Lian Yuntao said, removing his phone from his ears because he knew what would happen next.

"What--?" Xu Jiangwen shouted, "That's impossible! When performing these tasks, I don't want to be surrounded by a group of businessmen full of money, watching how we act!! Understand?"

"Lao Xu, they call themselves entrepreneurs, not merchants, and their income comes from production, and trade is just the last means of sales. Strictly speaking, they..."

"I don't care whether they are entrepreneurs or businessmen, they have not swear allegiance to the Federation, and I doubt their loyalty."

"There's nothing, Lao Xu, the head of state will not agree with your idea. He is being overwhelmed by the current situation and wants to find a way to control the current chaos. Letting those people join the simulated battle is actually a card he played that flaunts military-civilian cooperation. I hope that this move can calm the rumors in the streets and alleys."

"Listen, Yun Tao. I can't control the political dirty things in the Nanjing cabinet. My responsibility is to prevent our country from being attacked by the "Red Team" without the assistance of satellites. This is much more important than the inexplicable rules of the game in Nanjing."

"I can guarantee that the situation will only get worse now, especially those who have always complained about our government and the military, as well as those other organizations or ill-hearted guys, are likely to seize this opportunity to attack us."

At this time, Xu Jiangwen suddenly discovered that Anya was standing next to her. She was holding a piece of paper in her hand that read: "Come to simulate the combat experiment center, now!"

"Old Lian, I have something important to do, and I need to go out immediately. The President will come tonight. Please do your best to let the most people understand our current situation. We are not planning to ask Ya'an Association for help, but we will never let those who are hiding behind the scenes and want to attack!"
