Chapter 372 The Completely Collapsed Command System

December 12, Guam.

The Roosevelt aircraft carrier has completed its final repairs, and is slowly sailing out of the port at this moment, and is about to rush to its battlefield.

All the crew members on the aircraft carrier are carrying out their work nervously, because they know that this time the voyage is different from any previous one, and what greets them is likely to be the largest and most intense one after entering the 21st century. conflict.

However, unlike the emotions of ordinary combatants, the atmosphere in the command room of this aircraft carrier is a bit weird.

".Are you sure our target this time is Aozhou? Why are we going there? Didn't the early intelligence tell us to go to the Western Pacific?"

It was the Commander-in-Chief of the Combined Fleet who spoke, and his face was full of puzzlement, because the instructions he received were really strange.

Go to a certain sea area in Aozhou, close all communication channels, and keep the communication silent and standby.

What is this for?
Even with his decades of command and combat experience, he couldn't figure out what kind of strategic significance such a dispatch would bring.

"Theoretically, Aozhou is also in the Western Pacific, but I really didn't understand this order. I have just confirmed it to my superiors through the joint command system, and the order I received is still the same."

The captain of the Roosevelt replied helplessly.

He also couldn't understand the instructions, but he couldn't show any abnormalities of disobeying orders in front of his superiors, which made him feel a little painful.

Hearing his words, the fleet commander frowned tightly, and then said:

"I can't accept such an order—this is obviously a wrong order. I need to call the commander in person. Unless I get his own confirmation, I will never execute it!"

"My suggestion is the same. Call now to confirm, call now!"

The commander-in-chief nodded slightly, he picked up the phone, and then, 2 minutes later, he received a piece of news that shocked him to the point of almost fear.

As he expected, the combat order issued through the joint command system did not go to Aozhou at all, but to the Western Pacific.

Moreover, the content of the confirmation message they issued through the command system was also tampered with, and the confirmation received by the other party was also "go to the Western Pacific"!
Under such double-ended tampering, a wrong order was completely implemented, and if it weren't for this phone call, both the sender and receiver of the order are still in the dark!
What exactly is going on?

The commander-in-chief and the captain looked at each other, and a terrible guess welled up in their hearts at the same time.

One's own combat command system has been completely infiltrated.

Moreover, the other party even mastered the private key of its own command, and released the falsified information through the private key!
To achieve such a result, there are only two possibilities:
First, the military intelligence system of one's own side has been physically conquered, and the key personnel who hold the private key are spies of the other side.

The possibility of this kind of thing happening is extremely low. Using the most appropriate case to explain it, it is as if Captain America is actually Hydra's undercover agent in S.H.I.E.L.D.

Not at all.

But if this is not the case, then the situation they face may be even more dangerous, because
The other party probably mastered some kind of RSA decryption technology, and has implanted a Trojan horse program, fundamentally destroying the encryption method on which one's own side relies for survival!

This guess is even scarier than the first one, because if this is the case, then it is far more than just the command system that is paralyzed.

Except for the nuclear weapons and strategic weapons with the highest level of physical isolation, our enemies can mobilize almost all of our combat units without any obstacles, and even if they send out a signal, they can make those weapon systems that have been designed for automation use the standing weapons. All ammunition is empty!

Almost every link from the missile strike target, to the battle position of the combat unit, to the data link system, to the satellite reconnaissance system will be greatly affected.

Yes, it is true that one’s own side can disconnect the data link and issue combat commands purely through radios that cannot be distorted and interfered with, but such a combat method will immediately cause a rapid decline in strike efficiency and combat effectiveness, and this decline in a modern war is deadly!

Just imagine, the opponent's data link system shares all the target information within a few microseconds, while the own side has to rely on radio to transmit one by one. Such a speed difference will completely change the pattern of a war.

Do you still want to fight?

This question appeared in the minds of the fleet commander and the captain at the same time, but before they could reach a conclusion, they received a new order:

Return to Guam base to stand by.

This time, the order was not twisted.

At the same time, the entire joint command of the Ugly country's military has become a mess.

This once claimed to be the most advanced military command on the entire planet, but now it can only rely on the most traditional telephone communication system for intelligence sharing and information confirmation.

Each combat unit constantly fed back command information errors and data link system abnormalities, and the aggregated information made everyone in this headquarters feel as if they had fallen into an ice cave.

Three of the six major aircraft carrier formations were set to the wrong assembly point. The army received ultra-long-distance maneuvering instructions for no reason. The plane that one's own people were training in was shot down
In a small conference room, the country's top decision-makers in the military field have gathered together. Facing this unprecedented situation, their expressions are even more serious than when the mainland was threatened by nuclear weapons.

".The situation is very clear. This is Trojan horse virus invasion, but the problem is that our encryption design is not afraid of Trojan horse virus at all."

"They can intercept our information and intercept our combat orders, but they absolutely cannot rely on the public key of the combat command to deduce the private key and decrypt our information."

"We use 512-bit RSA encryption. According to the opinions of experts, there is no technology on this planet that can crack this encryption, even the computer with the highest computing power can't do it."

"Not to mention that the cracking this time is not a single instruction cracking, but a large-scale, full-chain cracking. It's incredible."

It was a senior commander who was speaking. Before this, he had answered no less than fifty calls, all of which were to directly check the accuracy of the command information with him. The command issued an order to cease all military activities.

Dramatically, the command transmitted simultaneously through the radio and the joint command system was not distorted at all, which also made them more sure that the distortion of the previous command was not a problem with their own system or personnel, but someone interfered with it.

"It's nothing unbelievable, Ron, you know what's going on in your heart, you just dare not admit it."

"Obviously, this is RSA decryption, and the other party has already mastered this technology——has mastered this technology before us!"

"Not only in the military field, but our logistics procurement has also been greatly affected. I just received news that our army has issued POs to suppliers to purchase hundreds of thousands of individual soldier sights. We don't need these single sights at all. Soldier sights, the content of this PO itself is to purchase individual medical kits!"

"If paper confirmation is not required, maybe this contract has been implemented, but even if it is just this, we have been affected enough."

"The banking and financial sector has not been attacked yet, but I have no doubt that if it is really necessary, they will simply change all the deposit numbers in all our banks to 0!"

"What should we do by then? This is not a simple financial issue. If our people find that all the money in their accounts has disappeared, they will immediately jump up and rebel!"

"The domestic situation is tense enough now, we absolutely cannot afford such a shock."

After listening to the other party's explanation, Ron was silent for a few seconds, then asked:
"Terry, don't always act condescending. What's your opinion? Admit defeat? I've already ordered the military operations to stop, how can I admit defeat?"

"The point is not to admit defeat. The point is, we have to figure out what the other party wants first."

Terry sighed deeply, then continued:
"I don't want to, but Ron, RSA decryption technology is a more deterrent technology than nuclear weapons. You know, we have been competing with our opponents for nearly 20 years in this regard, and now the situation is that they first We made it happen one step at a time.”

"That being the case, we have no other choice."

"Think about it for yourself, when we were the only ones in the world with nuclear weapons, what was our strategy like?"

"Now, we've switched places with them, they have RSA decryption and we don't."

"And, if we want to escape the influence of RSA decryption, we must update the algorithm—update to a quantum algorithm! But what is the most terrifying? Their RSA decryption is based on quantum computing!"

"Even if we update the quantum encryption algorithm, they still have a high chance of being able to decipher it. Forget it, this is not something you and I can decide."

"Don't waste any more time, report directly to the higher authorities. We need a comprehensive discussion, and all military operations must be stopped before the results of the discussion appear!"
