Chapter 1238 The Strongest Shield

When saying this, Chang Haonan suddenly felt refreshed.

If I had to describe it, it's like...

The goddess that others can't get, but I can stand up and kick...

cough cough.

In which other country would a weapon like the Dongfeng 21D be treated as a sacred weapon?

Well, I'll just use it as a smoke bomb.

As we all know, lies are most misleading when they are mixed with some truth.

Not to mention Americans, even our own people probably can't think of it.

Of course, Chang Haonan made such a suggestion not just for fun.

It is also to avoid overstimulating the Americans.

Even on this timeline today, in 2006, the United States' comprehensive national strength is still far ahead.

It’s just not as exaggerated as in the previous life.

In this situation, if China suddenly takes out weapons such as hypersonic missiles that have no countermeasures in a short period of time, it is very likely to trigger a strong backlash from the other side.

Although the day of falling out will come sooner or later, for China, which has the advantage of being a latecomer, it is obviously better to wait until later.

If we launch the anti-ship ballistic missile project, which seems to be a reasonable project, it would be equivalent to giving the other party a channel to vent.

Can medium-range missiles be intercepted?

Indeed it can.

Of course interception rate is another matter.

But at least at this stage, Americans themselves certainly feel that they can.

As a man who has lived a second life, he is very familiar with the character of this old rival on the other side of the ocean.

It’s quite different from the old Europe with its inexplicable sense of superiority.

If you want to deal well with Americans, you must give them a certain psychological advantage.

Even if it's an illusion.

But once this psychological advantage disappears, the other party will quickly turn into a crazy person.

Just like after 2016 in the previous life.

Anti-ship ballistic missiles fall right within the delicate psychological threshold of Americans.

It’s like playing ball with the leader.

The key point is to give people a sense of pleasure of "winning after trying their best".

Therefore, everything Chang Haonan did was to make the other side feel that "as long as we vigorously develop the mid-terminal interception system, we can exchange for the trump card weapons that the Chinese have researched with the efforts of the whole country."

After a few years when hypersonic weapons and fourth-generation fighter jets are in place, it will be too late to regret.

After listening to Chang Haonan's ideas in full, the entire conference room fell into silence.

First of all, it takes some time to digest and absorb the above content.

Secondly, the whole plan does involve a lot of people.

More importantly, it is also necessary to change China’s propaganda strategy in military construction, especially weapons and equipment construction, over the past few decades.

After the completion of the "Mission 1980" to launch an intercontinental missile into the Pacific Ocean in May 5, China has never publicly announced the development and testing process of key weapon models.

Whether it is the JL-5, DF-31A, or the later DF-, they are all in a delicate state of "the outside world roughly knows what is going on but I just won't tell you".

In the beginning, this choice was largely a helpless move out of the belief that “keeping secrets is the way to stay behind.”

For example, when the DF-31 was first tested in 99, it did not actually reach the 8000-kilometer range threshold for an intercontinental missile and could only cover a very limited number of key targets.

Once this information is leaked, the ability to deter powerful enemies will be greatly reduced.

However, today, this propaganda strategy has gradually evolved into a habit.

Even if reason makes everyone admit that Chang Haonan's plan is indeed very feasible and is enough to change the balance of power between the enemy and us to a certain extent.

Still, the thought of publicly acknowledging details about a weapon that is still in development feels a little strange.

Fortunately, the opinions of approval prevailed in the end.

The entire report also came to an end...

"Comrade Haonan."

Just as Chang Haonan packed up and prepared to leave, he was suddenly stopped by the chief from behind:

"The subsequent publicity work will be completed by comrades from relevant departments. Before the US side makes a specific response, there should be nothing special for you to worry about..."

This somewhat incoherent sentence made the former a little confused.

The chief quickly revealed his true intentions:

"Do you remember what I told you in Yanliang before?"

Chang Haonan suddenly felt his scalp tingling:

"Commander...you..."

He wanted to ask, "Are you serious?", but when the words came to his lips, he felt it was inappropriate.

What level of leader is he? Can he really joke with you?

So I'm stuck like never before.

Fortunately, the leader did not wait for his reply, but continued directly:

"The comrades from the Women's Federation have indirectly asked Comrade Yao about her wishes. I heard that she is very willing... and you also said before that you have no objection, so there is no problem."

"After today's meeting, comrades from the organization department and the trade union will contact you directly. If you have any specific requirements for this matter, you can contact them directly."

At this point, Chang Haonan knew clearly that given his current situation, this was only a matter of time.

No matter what the considerations are, the organization will not feel comfortable with him remaining single for a long time.

Or rather, it is considered slow to wait until now to put real pressure on them to get married.

So, I nodded:

"Okay, I will discuss this with my family, my teacher... and Comrade Yao Mengna..."

"..."

In fact, what Chang Haonan didn’t know was that the organization had been preparing to put pressure on him for several years.

But this kind of thing is someone else's private matter after all, and it's not easy to just issue a formal document to give instructions.

Therefore, they usually hint at the organization department of their unit through indirect methods, and then gradually exert pressure through the organization department.

However, Chang Haonan's situation is a bit special.

The speed of pressure could not keep up with the speed of his progress.

The organizational departments at the same level have become lower-level organizational departments before they find an opportunity.

That’s why I delayed it until today…

……

Let’s not talk about Chang Haonan returning home to prepare for his wedding.

On the other hand, the actions taken by the Chinese authorities in the next few days were beyond almost everyone's expectations.

On February 2006, 2, at a press conference, China officially announced that six days ago, on the evening of January 3, it had successfully conducted a test launch of a new medium-range ballistic missile. This launch was a normal test process in the plan. The weapon model was completely defensive in nature and was not aimed at any other country...

Looking at the newspaper in front of him that had just been published today, Admiral Lance Lord at Peterson Air Force Base couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"They actually admitted it just like that?"

In his impression, the Chinese people's equipment research and development has always been known for its mystery.

Without relying on some special channels, it is often difficult to obtain reliable and detailed information in the first place.

We can only speculate based on external intelligence.

Just like he did the other day.

Fortunately, the previous speculation was completely accurate.

It really is an anti-ship ballistic missile.

Thinking of this, Lord couldn't help but feel in a good mood.

"Perhaps it's because the other party also knows that this time the commotion is too big and it's impossible to completely conceal it."

Brigadier General Raymond, who had just delivered the newspaper, shrugged and replied:

"Also, maybe they think that with this new type of anti-ship weapon, they have the capital to compete with us, so they don't plan to continue hiding it?"

"laugh--"

The admiral laughed contemptuously:

"Using medium-range ballistic missiles to attack warships... I have to admit that this is indeed a bold idea. Of course, judging from their test results, it is indeed a genius design..."

He paused for a moment and stroked his neatly trimmed beard:

"But if you think you can use this weapon against us, you are totally wrong..."

Raymond did not respond, but just asked:

“Do we need a reciprocal response?”

"Of course."

Lord nodded without hesitation:

"You must immediately report the situation to the Air Force Chief of Staff and the Air Force Minister, and have them contact the Navy to prepare for a joint land-sea Standard Missile 3 interception test within two months!"
