#322 - Chills break out!
#322 - Chills break out!
Due to Big Bear's constant instigation, the Korean Peninsula finally lost its last safety net, and the North surged towards the South like a tide.
The Korean War arrived as expected. Watching the North advance unstoppably, Ren Zhong didn't feel happy.
Indeed, before this, Ren Zhong had tried his best to prevent or delay the outbreak of this war, but it was useless. The peninsula, caught in the struggle between two camps, could be influenced to some extent by the new republic, but it couldn't determine everything.
Especially in the eyes of ambitious individuals, peace was not worth mentioning.
"Our peace plan has failed." Chief of Staff Ye was deeply influenced by Ren Zhong and deeply resented this war initiated by the North.
Because now, the country was truly in a golden age of development, with a massive construction scale that was transforming the nation day by day.
But now that the war had broken out, many aspects had to be scaled back and changed. The development speed of the rocket program came to an abrupt halt, like an emergency brake!
"Old Brother Ye, let's just do our best. Human power has its limits, and our strength is not yet enough for people to respect us," Ren Zhong said calmly. "This is the worst outcome, but it's not beyond our expectations, is it? We have repeatedly deduced the current situation, and now, it has appeared!"
Ren Zhong analyzed calmly.
"Regardless, we have to start preparing for a war that shouldn't be ours to fight."
"Can we really not avoid this war? Will Rogue Eagle really intervene?" Chief of Staff Ye still couldn't quite believe it.
After all, it hadn't been long since the last great war, and the trauma left by the war hadn't even healed yet.
"Rogue Eagle has no choice. They can't lose the entire peninsula, and neither can we," Ren Zhong said. "This is part of Rogue Eagle's global strategy. How could they possibly give up the peninsula?"
"With the massive military power that Rogue Eagle has accumulated, once this modern war machine starts, the consequences are unimaginable. Frankly speaking, the North's current offensive is vulnerable in the face of three-dimensional attacks. The so-called million-strong army simply can't withstand Rogue Eagle's saturation firepower."
"Perhaps we can advise the North to stop while they're ahead," Chief of Staff Ye was still somewhat unwilling. Although Ren Zhong had already made strategic deductions for him, and some of them had already happened, the next steps would obviously continue to follow Ren Zhong's predictions, but Chief of Staff Ye still wanted to make a final struggle.
"It's useless. If our advice was useful, they wouldn't have insisted on going south. And once they choose to go south, the ending will definitely be a fight to the death! No one can dissuade them," Ren Zhong shook his head.
"Similarly, after Rogue Eagle intervenes, they won't be willing to just stay on the 38th parallel. They also want to solve all the problems at once."
"For us, we face the same strategic choice. We can't allow wolves to covet our doorstep, our industrial heartland in the north."
"What about Big Bear? They instigated this whole thing, can't they come out and clean up the mess?" Chief of Staff Ye continued to struggle.
"They don't dare. And they don't have the confidence," Ren Zhong said very肯定. "Their economic development is very difficult. In order to restore people's livelihoods, they don't have enough confidence at this point in time to fully confront, not only the peninsula, but also Europe."
"Of course, on the other hand, they are also using a borrowed knife to kill," Ren Zhong said bluntly. "Although they provoked this war, they are unwilling to directly get involved in this war. Instead, they hope to use us and the People's Army to contain and consume Rogue Eagle, thereby weakening Rogue Eagle's power, and of course, weakening us at the same time."
"In this chess game, they can choose to back down and push us to the forefront, but we have no choice. We must fight. This is at our doorstep, in our most vulnerable spot. We cannot allow Rogue Eagle to point a bright knife at our weakness, ready to stab us at any time."
"If that's the case, then our strategic situation would be too bad. Our strongest industrial base would have to directly face the夾擊 of two major powers."
"So we have no choice. This is our true founding battle. We must use this war to create a buffer zone, and we must also use the victory of this war to tell the world that we have truly stood up."
If there was even a sliver of possibility to avoid it, Ren Zhong really wanted to be an ostrich and avoid this war.
For the current development, if there was no interference from this war and the resulting blockade, in at most twenty years, through four five-year plans, Ren Zhong would be able to advance the industrialization process to a very developed state.
Unfortunately, now that the guns have sounded, there is no longer this condition.
"So, our volunteer combat plan must enter a state of combat readiness?" Chief of Staff Ye had actually believed everything Ren Zhong had previously deduced from the day he saw the North launch the war, but he was also unwilling to intervene in such a battle at this time.
But from today's exchange, Ren Zhong has not changed his view of the development of the war situation. Then we must fight.
"In terms of the air force, our fighter jets have transitioned to the jet fighter era. We have produced more than 300 of the latest J-5 fighter jets. The current production capacity, under extreme conditions, can produce at least 50 aircraft per month. After expanding the emergency production line, relying on the previously built standardized parts production system, large hydraulic presses will turn to fully execute military industrial production, then expanding the monthly production capacity to 100 aircraft is also no problem. We are not afraid of quality, but in terms of quantity, we are obviously not as large as Rogue Eagle's production capacity now."
"In terms of the air force, our only disadvantage is the huge difference in numbers."
"In terms of the army, the Dragon Tank II has been successfully researched and has transitioned to the new second-generation tank stage with a 105mm smoothbore gun. In this field, we are also at the world's first-class level. Our tank units, according to the T-34 and Dragon Tank I, Dragon Tank II three-generation mixed installation, compared to Rogue Eagle's tanks, we will not be bad. But the same problem, our numbers are still weaker than the opponent."
"Navy, the navy should not go out. In terms of the 2 Fletcher-class destroyers and 4 Jianghai-class frigates that we have just built, it would be a blessing to be able to protect the Bohai Sea."
"But in addition to this, our army has completed the transformation of mechanized infantry. In this regard, we have the strongest infantry on this planet. Therefore, as long as we avoid naval battles, endure the most uncomfortable moment of air combat, and can ensure the logistics supply of the army, our infantry will undoubtedly achieve the final victory."
Ren Zhong continued to describe the development over this period of time.
There is no doubt about the final result. In another time and space, we faced a more severe situation, but it did not prevent us from winning that crucial war.
In this time and space, Ren Zhong will never doubt it either.
Even if this time, we may not get Big Bear's help at all, after all, we have not joined this comrade's embrace.
But now we have established our own complete heavy industry system, which is much stronger than the historical time and space of the main world.
"What about the peace bomb? Can we use this thing to stop it?" After listening to Ren Zhong's description, Chief of Staff Ye suddenly interjected.
"No, that is absolutely not allowed, and even cloud bombs cannot be used," Ren Zhong repeatedly shook his head.
"Our current strongest missile, the current range has just broken through 3,000 kilometers, we can't reach Rogue Eagle, on the contrary, Rogue Eagle's many bases in Asia, as well as so many aircraft carrier fleets, can approach us at any time."
First update, asking for monthly tickets! Let's fight!
