After the four India-Pakistan wars, the Military Intelligence Bureau took over long-range patrol aircraft, electronic reconnaissance aircraft and early warning aircraft of the Air Force and Navy aviation. In cooperation with the military intelligence bureau, it carried out strict monitoring of hot spots around the Republic where conflicts may occur.

According to the location and scope of countries adjacent to hot spots, the Military Intelligence Bureau divides dangerous areas with different scales according to the three levels of "red, yellow and green" and indicates that "green zone" means relatively safe, civil transportation can pass freely, and military forces enter cautiously; "yellow zone" means relatively dangerous, civil transportation should enter cautiously, and military forces should avoid entering; "red zone" means very dangerous, and whether it is civil transportation or military forces enter, it will cause conflicts.

The "red zone" around the Diaoyu Islands is a 12-nautical mile "territorial sea" designated by Japan, the "yellow zone" is a "exclusive economic zone" with disputes between the two sides, and the "green zone" is a waters passing by nearby international routes.

After introducing the basic situation, Pan Yunsheng said again: "I have sent a patrol boat to intercept it, and then sent a maritime patrol plane to come after dawn."

"What kind of ship is that?" Ji Youguo's face turned pale and his expression was very bad.

"A fishing boat registered in Ningde, Fujian" hesitated for a moment, and Pan Yunsheng said again, "Maybe it's just a lost fishing boat. According to the situation already known, the fishing boat can only arrive at the Diaoyu Islands at noon tomorrow. We have enough time to intercept it."

"Is it that simple?" Ji You Guo looked at the director of the Military Intelligence Bureau, "Immediately find out the origin of the ship, who was on the ship, what preparations did they make before leaving the port, and find out all the things that can be found."

Pan Yunsheng nodded, then stood up after destroying the cigarette butts

"Let the patrol and search forces be vigilant, and do not conflict with the Japanese side, nor open fire without authorization." Ji Youguo glanced at Pan Yunsheng who was about to leave and said, "Give me a clear reply as soon as possible. I don't want anyone to deliberately provoke a military conflict with Japan."

"I'll deal with it immediately after I go back"

Leaving the study, Pan Yunsheng rubbed his cheeks hard, cursed quietly, and walked out of Xipu Garden quickly

Ji Youguo sat on the sofa for a while and smoked a cigarette before getting up and walked to the desk and picked up the phone and microphone. "Respond to the Ministry of National Defense and asked Zhao Rundong... directly to his home."

At this time, Wang Yuanqing came to the study room

Ji Youguo pressed his hand and said, "Old Zhao, I am Ji Youguo, just received the news that something might happen. Please go back to the Ministry of Defense to prepare... Do you know? That's good... Okay, I'll ask Xiao Wang to pick you up at the door... No problem, I'll make tea and wait for you."

"The Head of State is so late..."

"Old Zhao comes here immediately and you go to the door to pick him up." Ji Youguo didn't give Wang Yuanqing a chance to speak. "In addition, we still have half a tube of hairy needles, please make a cup and put more tea."

Wang Yuanqing sighed secretly and left the study with his packed cups and plates.

Fifteen minutes later, Zhao Rundongfeng came to Xipuyuan study

"I have received the news, it was Pan Yunsheng who told me." Zhao Rundong sat on the sofa, "It's really a pot that doesn't open and pick up, and someone is causing trouble at this critical moment."

"I asked Pan Yunsheng to find out the situation clearly. Maybe it was just a civil action." Ji Youguo brought two cups of tea over, "This is your favorite Maojian, I specially asked someone to prepare it."

"It's not the one I gave you last year, right?"

Ji Youguo smiled but said nothing. Anyway, he usually drinks Longjing.

"If this incident is a big deal..." Zhao Rundong sighed, put down the teacup he had just picked up, and said, "No matter what, it is not a good thing to have a conflict with Japan at this critical moment."

Ji Youguo nodded and said, "We can't let Japan do whatever it wants. If it's just a fishing boat, the problem is easy to solve. If it's a civil action, doesn't it just reflect domestic public opinion?"

"Lao Ji, what you mean..."

"We must prevent the situation from expanding and not provoking trouble, but we will never allow anyone to shit and pee on our heads. I asked Pan Yunsheng to intercept the fishing boat, but it cannot be guaranteed that there will be no accidents. You must also prepare. If the situation expands, we must take the initiative."

Zhao Rundong frowned slightly, "Do you want to discuss with Lao Peng?"

"Pan Yunsheng called you, and must have called Lao Peng, I'm afraid Lao Peng is considering whether to call me," Ji Youguo smiled faintly and said, "Lao Peng is a firm stalwart. In addition, Pan Yunsheng, who is good at fanning the flames, if I am wrong, the situation will be difficult to control."

"Without the participation of the General Staff, it will be inconvenient for us to do anything."

"I'm looking for you, not discussing how to fight with you, but wanting to hear your opinions."

Zhao Rundong picked up the cigarette and thought quickly

According to Ji Youguo's usual style, he will not make a clear statement before he is fully considered, nor will he let others know his true thoughts. During the Fourth India-Pakistan War, Ji Youguo's several major decisions were not only unexpected, but also extremely correct. Since the self-defense counterattack war started in the late 1970s, the war last year was the most beautiful military operation completed by the Republic in more than 30 years.

Today is not the same as before, and the challenges facing the Republic at this time are much more severe than a year ago

The Fourth India-Pakistan War not only awakened the United States, but also shocked the "lovely performance" of the Navy of the Republic of Japan and the Republic Air Force before the end of the war.

Audiences around the world show strong strike ability

Shortly after the war ended, the Japanese Congress approved the "2015-2016 Budget Amendment" proposed by the Democratic Government

Military budget is the focus of fiscal budget adjustment. By issuing additional national bonds, the Japanese government will allocate 28,900 yen in the fiscal year, which is approximately US$264 in military expenses, and the military expenditure increase to 45.

According to the "Military Budget Adjustment Plan" submitted by the Japanese Ministry of Defense, among the new military expenditure, in addition to the purchase of domestic weapons and equipment such as the third and fourth DDH19 large-scale anti-submarine destroyers, and accelerate the development progress of military projects such as "Xinshen" fighter jets, about 69%, that is, US$182 is used to directly purchase advanced weapons or purchase production licenses and production lines from the United States.

At the end of 2015, after only a small-scale modification, the US Congress approved the "arms sales agreement to Japan" submitted by President Roddick.

The approximate content of the "Agreement" is: selling 24 F-22s to Japan at a total price of US$9.8 billion; the 3-type anti-ballistic missile system, and 96 "Standard-3blockc-type sea-based interceptor missiles to Japan at a total price of US$24, upgrading the "Aegis" system on eight air defense destroyers to the latest version, and selling Type A-type anti-submarine patrol aircraft and supporting equipment to Japan at a total price of US$1.5 billion, promising Japan to have the right to prioritize the procurement of F-35 fighter jets.

After the "Agreement" was announced, it immediately caused heated discussion

Even according to the information provided by the Military Intelligence Bureau, how different is the F-22j on the day of sale and the F-22 equipped with the US Air Force? Some electronic devices are more advanced, up to $3.4 billion, which is twice the unit price of the US military purchase price, which has attracted criticism from Japanese citizens. In addition, the prices of several other types of arms are surprisingly expensive. Some people believe that members of the Democratic Party’s cabinet took huge kickbacks in the arms transaction and asked Congress to investigate this.

In the end, the military purchase agreement was voted three times in the Japanese House of Representatives before it was barely passed.

The outside world does not know that in this "aggregation", Japan invested $36 in the name of "military purchase" and jointly developed military-grade high-performance batteries and high-temperature superconducting technology with the United States. It spent $17 to purchase advanced equipment and technologies including electromagnetic catapults, high-strength alloys, high-power pulse generators, etc. from the United States.

Because the Republic shattered Japan's dream of becoming a permanent member of the Continental State, the relationship between the two countries took a sharp turn for the worse at 2015

In early 2016, with the United States vigorously promoting the "anti-terrorism strategy", Japan not only became much more active, but also searched for trouble everywhere, fearing that it would not cause trouble.

2, Japan announced the expansion of navigation lighthouse on the Diaoyu Islands and the addition of new radio navigation facilities

The action was immediately firmly opposed by the Republic, causing the relationship between the two sides to further deteriorate at the end of the month, a private team from Taiwan tried to rush to the Diaoyu Islands and destroy the navigation lighthouse on the island

4 pieces, Japan began to transport construction equipment and engineering materials to the Diaoyu Islands

The Republic took immediate action and sent warships and fighter planes to block transport ships to the Diaoyu Islands Japan also took corresponding actions, dispatching warships and fighters from sea and air to escort the transport ships.

Both sides are at a strife, and the situation is suddenly tense

At that time, Ji Youguo had ordered the General Staff to formulate a combat plan, and it was almost impossible to mobilize combat readiness.

The stalemate was at the end of the month. Without clear support from the United States, Japan quietly withdrew the transport ships, reducing the intensity of patrols, and the Republic also took the opportunity to withdraw the East China Sea Fleet.

The military standoff that lasted for more than ten days quietly ended, and both sides made a step forward, and did not escalate the standoff into a conflict.

This military confrontation not only deepened the conflict between the two sides, but also laid the root of disaster for many things to happen.

6. At the beginning of last month, the first batch of 12f-22: Guam flew to Okinawa Kadena Air Force Base and was officially delivered to the Japanese Air Self-Defense Force

A few days later, Japan launched another action to expand the Diaoyu Island navigation lighthouse and build a radio navigation station.

Although Japan's operation was much more low-key and had informed the Republic in advance, the Republic's position was still very firm and firmly opposed all Japan's expansion activities on the Diaoyu Islands

Under the firm opposition of the Republic, Japanese transport ships have been parked at Naha Port.

Will things end here?

Zhao Rundong smiled coldly. If Japan was easily "tamed", what had happened before would not have happened.

"Old Zhao..."

"We should try to avoid military conflicts with Japan. After all, Japan is an ally of the United States. As the saying goes, beating a dog depends on the owner..." Zhao Rundong hesitated for a moment and said with a serious expression, "If it is really unavoidable, you must be ruthless and accurate. Not only should you hurt Japan, but you cannot give the United States a chance to intervene, or even give the United States a reason to intervene, and strive to create a peaceful environment for ten years."

Ji Youguo nodded slightly and picked up the cigarette on the table.

As the head of state, Ji Youguo's perspective and method of viewing problems are definitely different from that of the Minister of Defense
