life in the sky

The news quickly spread all over the world, and the governments of various countries once again focused their attention on China. They were keenly aware that China had already taken back the Ryukyu Islands. Apart from attacking the Japanese mainland, there is no second way to go.

The five countries of the United States, Britain, France, Germany, and Russia took action again. The hotlines between the heads of government kept ringing, and consultations began around China's statement.In addition, the U.S. government also sent senior officials to lobby around in an attempt to put pressure on China and force China to give up its continued attack on Japan.

Although the United States implements strategic defense around the world and its troops have withdrawn from Japan, Japan is still an indispensable ally of the United States in Asia. If China launches an attack and military occupation of Japan, it will seriously damage the interests of the United States.

Huaxia, which has become stronger, naturally doesn't care what others say. At the same time, it has launched intensive diplomatic activities against each other, and has won the understanding and support of most countries.Everyone now knows that even if the US government intervenes, China will never stop its military strikes against Japan.

The Liujia Strait is located between the Malay Peninsula and Sumatra in Southeast Asia, connecting the South China Sea and the Andaman Sea, and an important waterway connecting the Pacific Ocean and the Indian Ocean.It runs from northwest to southeast and is about 25 kilometers long.The north entrance is wide and the south entrance is narrow.The bottom of the gorge is relatively flat, and the water depth decreases from north to south and from east to west, generally 27 to [-] meters.The narrowest part of the channel is at the [-]-meter shoal near Port Dickson on the east coast, with a width of about [-] kilometers.

The main deep-water channel of the strait is on the east side of the strait, and a giant ship with a draft of 20 meters can be navigated.The terrain on both sides of the Strait is low and flat, with many mangrove beaches and strong siltation. The east and west coastlines can extend 500 to 2000 meters per year.There are many swamps and vast muddy islands on the west bank, and it is difficult for large ships to dock; on the east bank, there are scattered headlands or rock islands, which are convenient for ships to moor.With a history of more than 5 years of navigation, it is an important link in the global route. More than [-] cargo ships, oil tankers and other ships pass through the strait every year.

This strait is the life channel that Japan depends on for survival. Most of Japan's export goods and imported raw materials must pass through here. It can also be said that as long as it is blocked here, it is equivalent to blocking Japan's neck.

A week later, the Huaxia Ministry of National Defense also held a press conference, announcing that military control will be imposed on the South China Sea from now on. All cargo ships destined for Japan or Japan’s overseas routes are not allowed to pass through this place. Those who refuse to listen to dissuasion and dare to resist, The Chinese army will seize or even sink it.

Huaxia's Longxiang aircraft carrier battle group undertook this task, using such a powerful force to blockade Japan, although it is a bit of a slasher, but it is also necessary.

The current situation is very delicate. Who knows if the US government will use warships to escort its own merchant ships?If this happens, it will mean the start of another local war.

Although the United States failed in the US-Iran War, its powerful naval power still cannot be ignored.Of course, China will not just take out the Longxiang aircraft carrier battle group, but also make all preparations for the possible consequences of this blockade, including the use of anti-ship missiles from the Second Artillery when necessary.You must know that China's Dongfeng series of anti-ship missiles are not vegetarians. They have the ability to accurately strike and completely destroy ships of more than [-] tons.

The sea in the South China Sea is calm and calm, groups of seagulls are flying above the aircraft carrier battle group, the blue sky and white clouds, the sea breeze is gentle, and there is peace and tranquility everywhere. big action.

A [-]-ton oil tanker flying the Japanese flag slowly sailed out of the Strait of Malacca. Although the captain received the news that the Chinese military blocked the South China Sea two hours ago, he still believed that the Chinese navy would not dare to confront it on international waterways. how are they.

"Captain, the radar found Huaxia's aircraft carrier battle group ahead, and received a clear-coded telegram from the aircraft carrier battle group, asking us to return the same way and not pass through Huaxia's territorial waters without permission."

"Baga, I have been traveling on this waterway for more than ten years. The South China Sea is an international waterway. When did it become China's territorial waters?"

The first officer scratched his head: "Captain, since Huaxia occupied all the islands in the South China Sea, they have regarded the South China Sea as their territorial waters and exclusive economic zone. The Huaxia government announced two years ago that it would conditionally allow civilian ships from all over the world to pass through." The South China Sea. Now our relationship with Huaxia is very tense, and the Huaxia military has announced military control over the South China Sea. Naturally, they will not let us pass."

As soon as the chief mate finished speaking, a shipborne helicopter flew over. Under the sunlight, the emblem of the aircraft was particularly bright, and the naked eye could clearly see that it was a Huaxia military aircraft.

"Oil tanker Qingyuwan, we are the Huaxia Navy. We order you to return the same way and pass through the South China Sea empty!"

"Captain, what should we do?" The first mate pointed nervously at the distant sea: "There are two more Chinese destroyers ahead. If we continue to move forward, they will definitely fight us with this posture."

I don't know which of the captain's tendons was wrong. He ignored the chief mate's advice, but ordered the Qingyuwan to advance at full speed, trying to break through the blockade of the Huaxia Navy by taking advantage of the large tonnage of the oil tanker. The treasure is betting on the fact that the Huaxia Navy dare not use force.

The captain of the Herring Ball is also courageous enough, so what's the use of a cruise ship with a larger tonnage?It is also vulnerable to a destroyer, let alone a missile, even if it is hit by a shell, the ship will be finished.

"Please pay attention to the Qingyuwan, return to the voyage immediately, otherwise you will bear the consequences!"

"Captain, we can't continue sailing any longer, let's go back quickly."

Looking at the panicked first officer, the captain of the Qingyuwan smiled contemptuously: "I don't believe that the Chinese dared to shoot at me. My ship is loaded with [-] tons of crude oil. Once it is sunk, it will bring What good does it do them? International organizations will not tolerate them doing this. Those cowards in the Maritime Self-Defense Force are scared out of their wits by the Chinese, but I want to save face for Japan .”

With a sound of "Boom", the naval gun on the Huaxia destroyer opened fire, and a shell landed 100 meters in front of the Qingyuwan, splashing a huge column of water.

"Final warning, the cruise ship Herring Ball will return immediately, otherwise we will launch an attack!"

If the captain of the Qingyuwan was bluffing just now, now he knows that the Huaxia Navy is serious. The shot just now was just a warning. If they continue to move forward, they will face the danger of being sunk.

Two more ship-borne helicopters flew over and hovered above the Qingyuwan. More than a dozen well-trained Huaxia marines descended onto the ship and quickly controlled the whole ship. The soldiers and the crew on the Herring Ball raised their hands obediently.

"I protest!" The captain of the Qingyuwan waved his hands, speaking half-baked Chinese, and stopped the officers and soldiers of the Huaxia Marine Corps who rushed into the cab.

"Fuck you little Japan, protest!" A marine soldier swung his gun butt and slammed the captain of the Herring Ball on the head, and blood flowed down immediately.

An officer with the rank of second lieutenant on his shoulder came over: "You have invaded China's territorial waters, and now you are all our captives. I order you to sail along this channel."

The captain took the chart with trembling hands, and he saw that this route was the port leading to Huaxia, and now he regretted it a bit, he should have turned back just now, and now it’s all right, not to mention being a prisoner of others, this ship The crude oil on board and the ship have also become other people's trophies.

The captain's tears and blood flowed down together, and he looked helplessly at the distant sea. Where did the Japanese navy go?

In just 24 hours, more than 100 ships passing through the South China Sea were ordered to return, and several ships, such as Xiang Qingyuwan, who refused to listen to dissuasion, were detained by the Huaxia Navy.

The Japanese government lodged a solemn protest against Huaxia, accusing the Huaxia army of piracy.

Seeing Japan's protest, Foreign Minister Wang Shanli smiled contemptuously: "If you don't accept the Japanese government's protest, what's the use of protest? Diplomacy depends on strength!"

Two Thousand 930 Chapter Two International Mediation

Huaxia intercepted Japanese cargo ships in the South China Sea and implemented a comprehensive blockade of Japan, which surprised the U.S. government. It turned out that they only thought that Huaxia would attack the Japanese mainland, and they were ready to put pressure on Huaxia, but they did not expect Huaxia to come. Such a hand.

Blocking the waterway in the South China Sea is tantamount to blocking the lifeline of Japan. This is an effective method with the least cost.Japan is a country with extremely scarce resources. Facing China's blockade, they can't resist it for a month anyway. They have no other way to go except to sit down and negotiate with China obediently.

On the third day after China blocked the South China Sea Channel, the United Nations Security Council held an emergency meeting. The main topic of discussion was to persuade China to give up the blockade of Japan and end the hostility between China and Japan as soon as possible.

If you can't fight, you need to negotiate. This is a common practice of weak countries. It's like when two people are fighting. Said to be the most beneficial.

The United States and Britain submitted a proposal to the Security Council, asking China to abandon the blockade against Japan, and China's attitude is that Japan must agree to the six propositions put forward by China, otherwise, the blockade against Japan will continue indefinitely.

Faced with the tough attitude of the representatives of China, the representatives of the United States were also a bit overwhelmed. If this matter had been placed ten years ago, the US government would have dispatched an aircraft carrier battle group to the South China Sea to intervene by force, but now they dare not, China's comprehensive national strength has far surpassed that of the United States, and its military strength is also on par with the US military. Most importantly, China's Dongfeng series of anti-aircraft carrier missiles are the nemesis of the US Navy, and the United States will never risk sacrificing the aircraft carrier battle group , to start a war with China in the South China Sea for the benefit of Japan.

The meeting of the Security Council is continuing, and China's blockade of Japan has not stopped.In the next few days, the representatives of Huaxia left after issuing a statement in the UN Security Council. The tough attitude shown made the United States, Britain and other countries feel trembling.

At the same time, Chinese folks are also spontaneously carrying out a boycott of Japanese products. All Japanese-origin products have been taken off the shelves. Even if some shopping malls are selling them, no one cares about them. strong patriotism.

If you don't buy Japanese goods for three months, thousands of companies in Japan will face bankruptcy!If you don't buy Japanese goods for six months, half of the people in Japan will lose their jobs!If you do not buy Japanese goods for a year, the Japanese economic structure will completely disintegrate.Although this sentence is a bit extreme, it is not completely unreasonable. At least it can cause heavy damage to the Japanese economy. It must be known that the recovery of the Japanese economy depends to a large extent on the strong drive of China's rapid economic development.

Two weeks after China imposed a blockade on Japan, the price of raw materials in Japan soared, exports fell into a complete stagnation, and most enterprises stopped working and production.According to statistics from the Japanese Ministry of Health and Welfare, the unemployment rate in Japan has reached over 70.00%, and the national economy has been hit hard.At this time, the Japanese finally understood how serious the consequences of confrontation with China were. It can also be said that Japan's economic achievements since World War II were reduced to ashes in a short period of time!

Now Takeru Sato's hopes are all pinned on international mediation. In addition to sending senior officials to lobby everywhere, he himself has visited the United States, Britain, France, Germany, Russia and other countries one after another.What makes people feel ridiculous is that when Sato Takeru visited Russia, he even proposed that Japan could voluntarily give up its sovereignty claim over the four northern islands, in an attempt to use this as a condition in exchange for Russia to exert military pressure on China from the north.

Russian Prime Minister Peter is also a politician with long-term strategic goals. Naturally, he will not turn against China for such a small profit.You must know that Russia's Far East territory was snatched from China by their ancestors. Sooner or later, China, which has become stronger, will ask Russia to return this territory.Although China and Russia have reached an agreement to jointly develop the Far East region and have actually taken back that piece of land, it still belongs to Russia in name.

In Building [-] of Diaoyutai State Guest House, Mu Guoxing met the urgently visiting United Nations Secretary-General Lewis. When Lewis finished explaining his purpose of coming this time, Mu Guoxing smiled.

"Mr. Secretary-General, I noticed the content of your speech just now. I also have a few questions for you to answer before I give an answer. First, as a defeated country in World War II, should Japan abide by the post-war international organization and the victory policy? China, the relevant agreement on restricting Japan's military possession. Second, should Japan admit the crimes they committed in the war of aggression against China and reflect on it. Third, although we have given up on Japan's The state compensated for the war of aggression against China, but the problem of harm caused by Japan to the Chinese people has not been resolved, should Japan make compensation to the Chinese people?"

Lewis stared at Mu Guoxing dumbfounded. He knew that the three questions Mu Guoxing raised were the prerequisites for normalizing the relationship between China and Japan.If these three problems are not resolved, it is absolutely impossible for Huaxia to give up the blockade against Japan.

"Mr. Prime Minister, I agree with your three propositions in principle, but some problems are left over from history, and we must take a step-by-step approach to solve them step by step. As we all know, China is a peace-loving nation, and peaceful rise is the basic national policy of your country. I personally think that whether China can make appropriate concessions on some terms will also help promote the normalization of China and Japan."

"Mr. Secretary, Huaxia hopes to normalize relations with Japan through international mediation, but the premise is that Japan must strictly abide by the restrictions on Japan's military power imposed by international organizations and their peaceful constitution. This is China's bottom line."

Lewis understands that as long as Japan can give up its armed forces and no longer possess offensive weapons, China will let Japan go, and China will also make concessions on the issue of economic compensation. The question now is, can Japan agree to this condition? ?

After World War II, the United Nations, China, the United States, Britain, France, and Russia, the five victorious countries, signed several agreements restricting Japan's development of armaments.The most important one is that Japan can have self-defense weapons, but it cannot have an army, let alone offensive and mass destruction weapons.However, with the support of the United States, Japan not only violated these regulations, but also intensified its military development. Now Japan not only has advanced fighter planes and warships, but also missiles and nuclear weapons.

Japan is also very clear that if these regulations are really complied with, then they are basically an undefended country, not to mention a powerful country like China, even some small countries can tell him what to do.This is the root cause of their violation of the pacifist constitution.

With the support and connivance of the United States, Japan's armed forces have developed rapidly. The so-called Self-Defense Forces have become a veritable army. The restrictions placed on them by countries and international organizations have been completely abandoned.

As the Secretary-General of the United Nations, Lewis is very aware of how these problems are caused. If it were not for the support of the United States, would Japan dare to do this?Before Huaxia becomes stronger, it will naturally not confront Western countries headed by the United States, but is China still the same as before?At this time, China is naturally going to exercise the power of the victorious country!

Just as Lewis was pondering, what Mu Guoxing said next shocked him again.
