Simulation: Great Power Technology

When the grain dispute was turbulent, but it was not yet fully formed, another piece of news suddenly detonated domestic public opinion.

The international military competition, which lasted for more than ten days, finally came to an end.

In this competition involving the sea, land and air forces, the participants and equipment from Huaxia won the largest number of medals in history, and the most eye-catching is the sea-to-shore shooting project, which was publicly displayed by Huaxia warships. New electromagnetic gun.

The effective range of this electromagnetic gun is far more than 200 kilometers, and the accuracy is higher than that of the main guns of all participating warships. It won the gold medal in this project with an overwhelming advantage. However, more than 100 countries, which were full of confidence in the competition, were only getting the gold medal. After the medals of the traditional advantage projects, they left the field sadly.

This result is beyond everyone's expectations, and it is also in sharp contrast to the attitude of the opponent in the pre-match interview.

"We have the confidence to complete the preparation for the competition project within a limited time, and to defeat our opponents in the project to prove our strength..."

"Of course, our soldiers are of course the best. They are much stronger than other opponents in terms of combat quality and training..."

"Equipment? Does this need to be questioned? Who on this planet has more advanced equipment than us?"

"Yes, we'll be open - no admission, it's a good opportunity to take advantage of us."

This is what a participating country said in a public interview with the media before the game, but the truth is completely different from what he expected.

Not only are they behind in equipment, but also in the combat quality of their personnel, they are also far behind China.

One of the most prominent is the Scout Top Soldier project. In the battlefield environment covered by electromagnetic signals, their scouts took twice as long to complete the scheduled combat target.

Their goal is China, but ironically, China's goal is not them.

Even their original plan to open a visit to several advanced warships and aircraft carriers ended up falling apart.

Because no one sees them at all.

More than 200 participating countries lined up to visit the electromagnetic guns. The visit time of each country is only a few minutes. For these few minutes, some people are willing to wait in the rest area for several hours, but they are not willing to drop by to see Zhu of the ugly country. Mwalt-class destroyer.

Such a sense of gap made the commander-in-chief of this fleet a little disappointed.

......

On the other side of the sea, the Office of Strategic Intelligence Analysis.

Johnson reluctantly looked at the results of the competition in front of him and said to several officers in front of him:

"So, since when did our individual combat effectiveness become so weak? The Marine Corps scouts get lost? Are you kidding me?"

"....It's just an accidental time. Our marines have almost never fought in such a snowy environment, and they are seriously inexperienced. Coupled with the electromagnetic shielding requirements, it is actually normal to get lost."

"Actually, of the more than 200 participating teams, only a dozen or so teams completed the combat mission. This year's schedule is too difficult."

"While it may seem exaggerated to take twice as long, it's really not that much of a difference - two months if we can train specifically for this type of operation - or even In a month, we'll be at their level."

Johnson shook his head, his face indifferent.

"What you said is just an excuse. Huaxia's marines have not undergone such training, and even most of their training is for landing on low-dimensional islands. How did they do it?"

"...I've heard that their Marines aren't real Marines, but elite personnel selected to compete exclusively."

"Another excuse, didn't we choose before the competition?"

The officer was finally speechless, and after a moment of silence, he opened his mouth and said:

"Okay.... I admit that we did lose this competition, but the competition is just a competition after all. In real combat, our advantage over them is still overwhelming."

"Really?"

Johnson looked at each other with mocking eyes.

"Why do I hear that our fleet had a battle with their fleet before the game started, and we were almost completely defeated?"

"That's only when neither side is on guard!"

Johnson took a long sigh. He naturally knew that what the other party said was an objective fact, but in this case, he really couldn't say anything comforting.

Participating in the international military competition was originally intended to show off muscles in a more peaceful and gentle way in the world. However, I didn't expect that there was a rabbit who had trained muscles even bigger than them in the back.

Yes, this time they also achieved the second place in the group, but who will remember the second place?

This is a terrible sign.

As the officer said, from a professional point of view, no one would take such a military competition seriously, because compared to actual battlefield operations, the scope of those events in the competition is too narrow and can reflect the real The power is too limited.

However, this competition is not just for professionals. In this world, there are still many forces closely watching the changes in their own and each other's strength. Only if they think that their own side has any signs of decline, they will He threw himself into each other's arms without hesitation.

Just now, he has received news that a certain country has canceled its intention to purchase the f-35 from its own country, and is instead preparing to negotiate with the other party to introduce some new drones, medium-range missiles, and anti-missile systems to achieve the lowest cost. to meet their operational needs.

And this is just the beginning.

If there are more military comparisons in the future, and our side loses more dominant positions, then those forces that wait and see will leave one by one.

Thinking of this, he opened his mouth and said:

"Let's talk about the military competition. Our previous preparations were indeed insufficient, so I can't blame you."

"However, because of the loss in the competition, the goal we booked was not achieved, so my suggestion is that we need to show our strength in other ways."

"Our actions in Africa in the early stage have been very effective - especially in the aspect of individual exoskeletons, we have won a lot of international attention and praise, and orders have begun to be implemented one by one."

"Based on this successful experience, I think we need to organize some similar activities, and to increase the scale and intensity a little bit."

Hearing his words, the officer frowned and nodded, then proposed:

"Then it's best for the navy this time... Otherwise, we will arrange a unified drill of the three aircraft carrier formations? You know, this kind of coordination of the three aircraft carrier battle groups is very rare, and there are also strong The oppressive force of the navy is actually the perfect fit for demonstrating the strength of the navy."

Johnson nodded slightly and replied:

"It's really a good idea and a very intuitive comparison."

"We have three aircraft carriers in the Pacific Ocean alone, and the other side only has two aircraft carriers a generation behind us.... This should give our allies more confidence. Well, just press Do this."

The officer nodded and was about to report to his superiors over the phone for final approval, but just as he picked up the phone, the door to the conference room was knocked.

"Come in!"

Johnson shouted loudly.

Then, the door of the conference room was opened, and a nervous intelligence officer held a stack of documents in his hand and handed it directly to Johnson.

Looking at the document in his hand, Johnson's face gradually became ugly, and even his fingers trembled slightly.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing his expression, the officer quickly asked.

"See for yourself."

Johnson threw the document in his hand in front of him, and the officer hurriedly opened the document.

Then, his face suddenly turned dark.

too fast.

Their judgment, I am afraid, once again made a mistake.

What was originally expected to take at least a few months to happen, just now, has become a reality.

The document in front of him is a set of satellite images. The lower left corner of the image is marked with numbers representing latitude and longitude, and the location represented by those numbers is Shang Hai!

And on the satellite picture, a huge ship is leaving its home port!

June 21.
