the world is at stake

"The F-5E has been out of service for a long time. The radar caliber is small, and the avionics are terrible. It can't even beat the J-[-], let alone the 'Veyron'."

"The mainland's electronic warfare planes interfered with Taiwan's combat radar so that nothing could be seen, and there was no way for the ground to provide pilots with any guidance."

"American advisers have already started to withdraw. They are worried that the advanced equipment will fall into the hands of the mainland, so they either transport them to Japan or destroy them altogether."

"Taiwan's army doesn't want to fight at all now. Everyone is thinking about how to surrender when the mainland fights. We don't want to be shot down by the mainland one day.

After all, the United States and Japan can't handle it, so how can we carry it?Death is not in vain.After thinking for a long time, he decided to surrender, at least he could save his own life. "

After the "News Network", "Focus Interview" continued to interview two Taiwanese pilots, asking them to reveal the shady scene of the Taiwan military-officials escaped, the army had no fighting spirit, and foreign aid was weak. This battle was lost without fighting.

Zhou Qingfeng was still in Taiwan, and found out that the Taiwanese media had relayed mainland-related news for the first time.

The people of Taiwan were outraged. Everyone knew that the Taiwan military would not be able to handle it, but they did not expect that there would be surrenders so soon.

The puppet Ministry of National Defense was very angry but had no choice but to order several air wings to stop flying.The spokesperson of the pseudo-presidential office said harshly and internally that he would be held accountable, but he did not say who should be held accountable.

This is similar to the situation in which the 'Taliban' took over the country.

At the beginning, the United States also said that it would persist for three months, and the government army also emphasized that the front line was very stable.But a few days later, the 'Taliban' entered Kabul, and the leading party staged a 'trapeze' at the airport.

The so-called defeat of the army is like a mountain, but it is nothing more than that.

Zhou Qingfeng soon received a message from Qin Qing that the situation in Taiwan was changing too fast, and now the reaction of all parties is beneficial to the mainland. 'Party and government' worried about protracted changes, and decided to carry out 'attack Taiwan' drills in advance.

This idea is very correct.

Although the mainland's military preparations are not yet sufficient, the continuous months of attacks have kept Taiwan's public opinion at a low ebb, which is very beneficial to the "attack on Taiwan".

Once this low tide continues for too long, the public may feel indifferent, and hostile forces such as the United States and Japan may come up with other moths.

It's better to take advantage of the disorder of the enemy's overall layout and start in advance.

In the past, public opinion in Taiwan was thinking of 'no unification, no independence', taking advantage of everything without taking responsibility.But once the mainland shows a strong stance, they will only hope that the war will pass as soon as possible and normal production and life will resume.

Qin Qing wanted Zhou Qingfeng to return to the mainland, but he was reluctant.According to his several months of island-wide inspections, US intelligence agencies have made preparations for Taiwan to be captured by the mainland.

One is to take away senior officials of the current Chen Shui-bian regime, and the other is to destroy Taiwan's industry and infrastructure.The former is to add chaos to the mainland in the future, and the latter is to leave a mess for the mainland.

Responsible for handling this matter is the 'American Institute in Taiwan' AIT, an American agency in Taiwan similar to the Supreme Emperor.On the surface, it is responsible for unofficial relations such as business, culture, and personnel exchanges. In fact, it performs the affairs of the US embassy in Taiwan.

Think about how many holes the United Kingdom buried for China when it left Hong Kong, and the United States will only bury more holes in Taiwan.If these diggers are not dealt with in advance, there will be endless troubles.

Qin Qing said that there is a special person responsible for the relevant affairs, but Zhou Qingfeng thinks that no one is more suitable to deal with AIT than himself. "When necessary, I can grab several heads of AIT to make sure they don't dare to mess around."

Alas... Seeing Zhou Qingfeng's reply, Qin Qing knew that he couldn't persuade him.After reporting to 'Party and Government', she sent a message to her husband: "Waiting patiently and ensuring safety."

Those who are 'engaged in the party and government' are now listening to reports from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the United Front Work Department, the General Staff, and the commanders of various services and arms.The mainland has been dealing with Taiwan for many years, and the "attack Taiwan" plan has eight hundred if not one thousand.

The war can never be ready to fight again. The elders of the Standing Committee of the Central Committee also agreed with the judgment of the "party and government" on the current timing, and took advantage of the time when the United States was in a hurry and had no time to separate itself, and took Taiwan with a thunderbolt.

As for the exact time...

The intelligence officer of the General Staff reported: "The United States has obtained information from multiple sources, and it is estimated that the PLA will launch an attack around August in the second half of the year, which is basically consistent with our planned mobilization plan.

Therefore, its two aircraft carriers left the East Asian waters and returned to the Persian Gulf. They should hope to calm down the chaos in the Middle East as soon as possible, and come back before we complete the mobilization to continue to maintain deterrence. "

The "party and government" sneered at this: "What deterrence can there be if we dare not use force? After completing the lease of strategic nuclear submarines with Russia, we are already invincible."

Speaking of nuclear submarines, Russia once again provided China with six "Delta" ballistic missile nuclear submarines this month, including a total of 96 nuclear missiles and more than [-] nuclear warheads built in.

China has to pay more than 500 billion yuan in rent for this, and the maintenance cost has to be paid by itself.However, this unprecedented lease of nuclear weapons has raised national security to a higher level, and the status of "engaging in party and government" has been extremely stable.

When a 'Delta' launches a P-29PM submarine-launched ballistic missile and hits a range in Northwest China, its deterrence is enough to sweep away all obstacles to the 'Taiwan attack'.

When mentioning the underwater nuclear force, the members of the Standing Committee and officials of various ministries and military officers who reported to the scene all laughed—the power of nuclear bombs is recognized all over the world.

Inside the PLA, especially the Navy, love these new toys.The entire army and even the whole country are more confident in taking Taiwan, and many noises worrying about US interference have been reduced.

The officer of the General Staff continued: "According to the agreement with Russia, the 'Kuznetsov' will enter the South China Sea at the end of this month. Our carrier-based aircraft force will be transferred to Murmansk, where the Russian Northern Fleet is stationed, in the name of lease.

Our aircraft carrier operators have also arrived and are familiar with the aircraft carrier with the cooperation of the Russian side.But they reported that the 'Kuznetsov' was not in good condition, with aging boilers, outdated equipment, and low technical level of officers and men. "

"Party and government" said with a stern face: "Use it if you can, don't expect too much from them."

The officer of the General Staff continued, "The 'Liaoning', which is in charge of the feint, will set off at the end of this month, but the actual effect is unknown. It can only be said that at that time, as much as possible, three aircraft carriers will be gathered in the waters east of Taiwan to exert the combat effectiveness of an aviation regiment."

Taiwan has many mountains and few lands, and there is a so-called "Central Mountain Range" running from north to south.Usually, this mountain range blocks typhoons from the Pacific Ocean, which saves Fujian and other places from the trouble of flooding.

However, the Taiwan army also used this mountain range to build a defense system, and many hidden counterattack forces were hidden in the mountain caves to the east.The mainland launched an attack from the west, and it was difficult for ordinary firepower to kill its military subordinates in the west.

According to PLA's idea, one of the missions of the two aircraft carriers is to communicate with the U.S. military, and another important mission is to move to the ocean east of Taiwan to deal with the hidden counterattack forces of the Taiwan military.

But 'Liaoning' and 'Shandong' have very low ability to attack in one wave.Especially for the 'Liaoning', there are up to eight aircraft in a single wave, and there are too many to be busy.

The PLA paid attention to Maozi's 'Kuznetsov', after all, it is the same class ship as 'Liaoning', and the aviation operation should be similar - you can rent a nuclear submarine or an aircraft carrier.

In wartime, the enemy is expected to be lenient. One more aircraft carrier is equal to a 50.00% increase in mobile forces.

but……

The 'Holy Light' team knew that the 'Ku' ship had a lot of problems, so it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that it was a useless aircraft carrier. The 'Holy Alliance' is also clear that it has no opinion on China's whim, which is basically a bonus of nuclear submarine cooperation.

When the battle starts, a wave of short-range ballistic missiles with penetrating warheads will naturally bombard the important facilities of the Taiwan military. At the same time, the airport and port will be blocked, and the land transportation hub will be cut off.

"It's all to be expected."

In Da'an District, Taipei City, the office of the American Institute in Taiwan, its chairman, and the directors of the two offices in Taipei and Kaohsiung are also discussing the same issue.

The chairman of the council is Bo Ruiguang, and the two directors are Yang Sudi and Fu Deen.The Chinese names they choose are all Guilo Americans.For the plight of the U.S. government in the Taiwan Strait, these front-line U.S. diplomatic and intelligence personnel feel the deepest.

"Taiwanese media have already publicly reported the mainland news. Those sons of bitches usually serve us like servants, but now they plan to change their masters."

Yang Sudi hated this very much. He liked the days when he was domineering in Taiwan.

If you can invite people from AIT to participate in any activities in Taiwan on weekdays, you will instantly become taller and have international influence. AIT people fart, Taiwanese media can repeatedly report and lead to various interpretations.

Candidates for various elections in Taiwan are summoned by AIT, like concubines being favored by the emperor, they are extremely pampered.But as the pace of the mainland's attack on Taiwan is getting closer, such wonderful days are gone forever.

The U.S. State Department requires AIT to remove all of Taiwan's human, material and financial resources as soon as possible, just like the Kuomintang moved from the mainland back then, and never leave anything that can be used by the Communist Party.

Under this order, a large number of Taiwanese elites fled abroad, and financial resources such as foreign exchange reserves and gold were also transferred away by transport planes.

Benchmarking companies like TSMC are packing everything, and tens of thousands of containers are shipped to the United States to rebuild their factories.All these plans are to be completed within three to four months.

If there are things that cannot be completed, even if they are all destroyed, it will not be cheap for the mainland.

However, the situation in Taiwan deteriorated so quickly that even the three directors of AIT could not have predicted it.They thought they still had some time to complete the tasks assigned by the US State Department, but now they always feel that a certain time is fast approaching.

This feeling does not come from watching reports in an office in Washington.

It can only be produced by having a real experience of the morale of the local people in Taiwan, which requires personal conversations with vendors, teachers and students, officers and soldiers, and employees.

"Do you think the CCP's military plan will be advanced?" Bo Ruiguang asked his two subordinates.

Yang Sudi and Fu Deen nodded in agreement.

"How many months earlier?" Bo Ruiguang asked again.

This time point is not easy to estimate, because it is related to a series of arrangements.After all, the take-off and landing capabilities of Taiwan's four international airports are limited, and the port's shipping capacity is also limited.

For example, if all the foreign exchange is transported away, if the mainland does not send it, the people will run on it, which is very troublesome.It is best for the mainland to take away the foreign exchange before attacking Taiwan, leaving a lot of waste paper like Taiwan dollars for the CCP to have a headache.

If Taiwan dollars are not recognized in the hands of the people, Taiwan will definitely be in chaos; if Taiwan dollars are recognized in waste paper, the mainland will probably have to bear a financial burden of trillions of yuan.

In fact, the people of Taiwan are already running, and the exchange rate of the Taiwan dollar against the US dollar has plummeted in recent months.Every time there is negative news, it is a financial disaster.

There are many similar issues. Attacking Taiwan is not only a military issue, but involves too many aspects.

In addition, AIT also has a plan, which is to shoot down one or several passenger planes full of passengers at the moment when the mainland attacks Taiwan.

Anyway, who can tell whether it will be shot down by a missile or blown up by a bomb?Hundreds of thousands of people died, this blame will naturally be blamed on the mainland.Public opinion all over the world will blame it.

In addition, important officials and scholars in Taiwan must be transported away as much as possible.The Americans themselves do not want to be trapped in Taiwan, and must leave this fallen place at the right time.But neither too soon nor too late.

"I think the CCP will probably do it without waiting for the mobilization to be completed. After all, now that the two US aircraft carriers have left, the deterrent effect on them has been greatly reduced."

"So when will it be brought forward? July, June or May? It can't be April."

"I heard that when the White House discussed the Taiwan Strait issue, Secretary Rumsfeld proposed a nuclear strike against China."

"What a crazy proposal. People in the military don't care about lives, they only care about numbers. Thank God this proposal was not authorized by the President, otherwise we would be living in the post-nuclear era."

"It's not the kindness of our president that really stops a nuclear strike, it's the strength of the opponent. In fact, nuclear war is not as terrible as imagined. But the damn Russians have changed the balance of power."

A few Yankees failed to accurately predict the timing of the mainland's attack on Taiwan, and the topic of their chats quickly turned to the opponent's sudden increase in military power.

But in the company of alcohol and cigars, dogs barked outside the office building of the AIT office, followed by the call signs of the guards, and repeated gunshots.

"What happened?" Bo Ruiguang, the chairman of the board of directors, was a little too drunk and was in a daze.When he had doubts, the phone in the meeting room rang.

After pressing the call button, the anxious voice of the guard came out, "Gentlemen, someone has broken into our office, and there have been many casualties."

"What?" Bo Ruiguang asked unimaginably: "AIT is equivalent to the existence of the American embassy. Someone dares to break in and kill people?"

Ah... A sharp scream came from the phone, it was the calling for help of the guard who was summoned before he was about to die.It was as if a sharp knife had pierced his heart and lungs, causing him unbearable pain.

The three people who were talking in the secret room suddenly woke up from the drunkenness and stared at the phone on the table.

Chapter 63 Sweeping Out

The American Institute in Taiwan does not have a big scene, and the Taipei office is only a two-story building, which is very low-key.There are no obvious signs outside the building, and there are no things like barbed wire on the three-meter-high fence.

But it is heavily guarded.

It is much stricter for Taiwanese to enter AIT to apply for a visa than to go through the airport security check. The whole check is basically to determine whether you have a bomb on you.

There are signs of 'no photography' and 'no stay' on the outer wall at the entrance, which are extremely rare in Taipei.

There are a large number of cameras inside and outside the office, and thick steel wire reinforced mesh on the windows.Anyone who walks up to its heavy steel gates is already under surveillance, as the perimeter of the building is a closely monitored area.

For example, there are security personnel in the roadside fruit shop leading to the office.Anyone who tries to take pictures will be stopped and persuaded with words like 'brother, I'm sorry, you can't take pictures here, don't embarrass me'.

Although it was already midnight, there were still a large number of Taiwanese coming here to apply for visas and prepare to flee to the United States.The American staff in the office are also working overtime, and the security guards are even more vigilant, knowing that accidents are prone to happen at this moment.

It is said that in such a closely monitored area, security should be no problem.But it just happened.

A modified heavy truck came abruptly from the road, didn't go through the main entrance, directly smashed down the wall of the office, and rushed into the interior.

In order to deal with the reinforced wall, two sets of sharp ram angles were specially welded on the front of the heavy truck, the engine horsepower was significantly increased, the car body was also covered with steel plates, and the tires were explosion-proof.

After the modified truck smashed through the fence, it also crashed into the two-story building of the office.Wherever he went, everything was destroyed, walls and houses collapsed.The sound and vibration caused by the impact scared the souls of 300 people in the office.

Fearing that it was a self-exploding truck, the office staff were evacuated and fled elsewhere.

The chairman of the board of directors and two directors of AIT were hurriedly taken away by security racks and sent to other safe places - but the truck did not explode.

On the contrary, the security personnel from Taipei, who should have arrived immediately, showed up after half an hour.During this half hour, the entire office was ransacked by more than 20 unidentified thugs.

Some of these people were mixed in the queue waiting for visas, some rushed in with modified trucks, and one group even took a helicopter and landed on the roof of the second floor of the office, breaking in from top to bottom.

Unidentified thugs quickly took control of AIT's Taipei office and used explosives and other tools to blow up many secret rooms and confidential document boxes in the office.

The leader of the mob was tall, wearing a black mask and heavily armored.Holding a machine gun as an arrow, he pulled a few shuttles towards the ceiling, easily clearing away the few security guards left behind in the office, all the way unimpeded.

Half an hour later, people from the Taiwan Security Bureau arrived at the scene and said lazily that the truck was not in danger and the scene was safe.People from the police department also said that the thugs had fled and were chasing them.

Bo Ruiguang, the chairman of the board of directors of AIT, looked back and was furious.

This place similar to the US embassy in Taiwan was severely ransacked, and a large amount of confidential information was taken away.Even the metal closed door of the basement was forcibly cut open by the acetylene cutter.

The metal door is more than 30 centimeters thick, and it weighs more than two tons. Every time the door is opened, it needs to be driven by a motor.But now a half-person-high hole has been cut in this thing.

In the basement, there are encrypted communication equipment directly connected to the U.S. State Department, as well as servers storing a huge amount of confidential information, as well as paper materials and a large amount of cash.

In just half an hour, the place was demolished, and the equipment and hard drives disappeared, leaving only a large number of cut cables.

It is not surprising that Taiwan's Security Bureau has slowly come to have a director.Instead, he comforted the Yankee Bo Ruiguang, "Sir, no one died, it doesn't matter."

Bo Ruiguang was furious immediately, and shouted at the director of the Security Bureau: "This is a blatant humiliation to the United States, and it is also a major blow to Taiwan's security. You actually said it doesn't matter, are you bought by the CCP?"

The director shrugged and said nonchalantly: "So what, everyone knows that you Americans are unreliable. I have a family, and I want to live."

Ah... I have never seen such a straightforward betrayal.

Bo Ruiguang didn't know how to scold him?Angrily trembling all over.

The director of the Security Bureau continued: "The organizer who raided you tonight has all the identities of more than 300 AIT employees. Let me send a message for him. He knows the so-called 'retreat plan' you arranged, and he knows that you want to engage destroy.

He was ordered to give you a warning and ask all Americans in Taiwan to leave Taiwan within 24 hours.Tomorrow night, AIT Taipei and Kaohsiung offices will be demolished by blasting.We also no longer guarantee your safety. "

After speaking, the director of the Taiwan Security Bureau patted his buttocks, turned around and left.Even the Taiwanese police took pictures, took a look, and then left.

Counting afterwards, the short raid caused 26 casualties.But except for five American staff who were slightly injured, the rest of the dead were the backbone traitors trained by AIT in Taiwan.

For example, the security guard who called Bo Ruiguang was one of them.

In the messy visa hall, a roster stood abruptly on the broken front desk.
