Volume 13 Moral Controversy Chapter 80 War Plan
Dao Tong Yan Jingyu mentioned in the old days that persuading Na Li, led by Lin Muxun, "distribute one thing and formulate a war plan that can be accepted by all parties is another matter. In other words, Lin Muxun will give Yan Jingyu and Pei Chengyi face and make concessions on the issue of war, which will delay for a few more years. However, Lin Muxun also has to explain to other representatives and has to convince those interest groups that support them behind the scenes, so sufficient reasons are needed. Mu Yong doubts that a perfect, feasible war plan that can make people see hope is the best tool of persuasion.
At the barbecue dinner, Lin Muxun proposed this matter in front of Yan Jingyu.
Yan Jingyu was not vague and authorized Pei Chengyi on the spot to mobilize all resources to come up with a complete war plan before the Spring Festival congress was adjourned and a brief plan was prepared. In any case, the real war plan would definitely not be spread everywhere. At most, Lin Muxun could only use it to submit a shortened version of the war plan.
Because it is no secret that the Republic and the United States are preparing for war, even if the outside world knows that the Republic has formulated a war plan, it will not cause much trouble. From another perspective, the Republic's general staff has thousands of members, and one of the main tasks of these people in peacetime is to formulate war plans for various potential threats. The United States' threat is not potential, but actually exists. If there is no war plan against the United States, it is a deception.
This has also become Pei Chengyi's main job around New Year's Day in previous years.
In fact, the war plan came into being. As early as the time, Pei Chengyi, then deputy prime minister of security, authorized Yuan Chenhao, then director of the Operations Department of the General Staff, to formulate a war plan, and based on this plan, he proposed to Yan Jingyu that he should start preparing for the world war. It was precisely because of this that in the year, the Republic took the lead in breaking the deadlock through security cooperation with Europe, making the world war less far away.
In the following years, the General Staff had been improving this war plan, mainly to make adjustments to the plan based on the latest situation. For example, at the time of the four, neither Pei Chengyi nor Yuan Chenhao, they did not expect the development of the Sky Army to be so fast, and they did not regard the Sky Army as the main strategic strike force, and still placed the Air Force first, which made the entire combat plan lack flexibility and was nicknamed by some senior staff members as an expanded version of the Middle East War.
After several years of hard work, this war plan has completely changed. Not only has the content enriched a lot, but the combat methods have also undergone major changes, which has had an irreversible impact on the military power construction of the Republic. For example, at the end of the Tian year, several key technologies required to determine the aerospace fighter jets have either made breakthroughs or could be made within three years. Pei Chengyi personally approved the merger plan between the Air Force and the Sky Army, requiring the two major military branches to complete the preparations for the merger before the end of Tianniao. As mentioned above, this time the Sky Army annexed the Air Force, not the Air Force annexed the Sky Army. According to the merger plan jointly formulated by the General Staff and the Ministry of National Defense, after the merger, the Air Force's strategic aviation will be merged into the Sky Army's "tactical space soldiers", while the Air Force's tactical aviation will merge with the Army Air Force and the Navy Air Force respectively, and only the support air force will be retained. Therefore, the Air Force will eventually become a support type of support under the Sky Army.
Mu Yong doubted that such merger profits will not only take time, but will also have an impact on military forces, which in turn will affect the war plan that has been formulated.
That's right. By the end of the year, the Ministry of Defense still had not formulated a detailed war plan.
According to Pei Chengyi's estimate, it will take at least three years before the merger between the Air Force and the Sky Army is completed before a detailed war plan can be developed.
In fact, Pei Chengyi suggested to Yan Jingyu that the main reason for postponing the war for a few years was also here.
Everyone knows that the Sky Army will be the dominant force in the next war. As early as the year of Libian Year, some people predicted that in the next World War, the Sky Army will be like tanks in World War I and bombers in World War II, fundamentally changing the appearance of the war and bringing final victory to the warring parties who took the lead in occupying the commanding heights.
Although the theoretical basis cannot explain anything, Pei Chengyi has more than just theoretical basis.
As mentioned earlier, as early as a few years ago, the Ministry of Defense used special funds to build the world's largest and most advanced supercomputer group, and used the computer group to simulate and analyze World War III. In fact, in addition to the first simulation analysis that took several months, simulation analysis of combat operations in various situations has been stopped, and is carried out more every day, and the analysis results are directly used to improve the war plan. It is precisely because of this that in the past few years, the Ministry of Defense has been using secret funds to strengthen the computer group through the Military Intelligence Bureau. According to the intelligence provided by the Military Intelligence Bureau, the National Defense Security Computer Center located under the Pentagon in the United States also has a similar computer group. In short, using computers to perform simulation analysis has become the main basis for military strategists to judge future wars.
The sky army is so important that it is naturally highly valued.
Because computer simulation analysis must be based on actual data, and actual data can only be obtained through experiments, tests, etc., in the early 2 years, Western news media predicted the frequent space launch activities of the Republic in the previous three months that the Republic was preparing for the establishment of a number of waves related to the Sky Army, and would use computers to combat the Sky Army to simulate and analyze it in order to establish a complete Sky Army tactical system.
This analysis is correct. No matter what, any military force needs a tactical system to play a role.
Just like Ma Han's "Theory of the Sea Power", Du Hei's "The Air Power" made the whole world realize the importance of the navy and the air force. If the Sky Army wants to become the "first army", it must have a similar theory. Of course, it is not difficult to propose a theory. As mentioned earlier, the Sky Army combat theory appeared as early as the Year of the Libian. The problem is that any mature theory is based on a large amount of practice. If there is no Sun-Down Empire supported by the Navy, if there is no exploration in World War I, there will be no "Theory of the Sea Power" and "The Air Power". The embarrassment of the Sky Army is here, that is, before that. No war can prove the importance of the Sky Army.
That's why from the very beginning, the Republic and the United States could only pin their hopes on high technology.
In any case, as long as there is enough actual data, a large-scale battle can be simulated with a powerful computer system, or even a world war. Although there will always be deviations when simulated. However, war itself is composed of various uncertain factors, and no one can accurately predict the war. Therefore, as long as the data on simulation calculations are accurate enough, the simulation results are close enough to reality.
For this reason, the Republic and the United States spared no expense, treating space launches as if they were to kick off during the Chinese New Year.
According to the data released by the Republic, in just one year, the Republic carried out aerospace launches, which was equivalent to an average of 8 launches per day. In addition to the relaxation of the civilian market and the civilian-oriented missed launches, there are still flights that serve the military, which is equivalent to conducting military space launches every day. Such a high launch frequency is definitely a miracle.
The problem is that this inappropriateness was soon broken. By the year of drowning, the Republic carried out the Daocao military space launch, while the United States surpassed the Republic for the first time and carried out the military space launch. Although the data for the year of the year has not been counted, it was in the past month. In the past month, the Republic carried out the 8 military space launch, and the United States carried out the ignition military space launch, which will surely set a new record again.
Because without considering the altitude, the ideal location of the space launch site should be on the equator. This is also the reason why France's Mahama refused to give up Guyana, because the Kuru Space Launch Center located in Guyana is the closest to the equator in the world. And the most complete space launch center, and the Republic and the United States are both countries in the northern hemisphere. In addition, military space launches have confidentiality needs, so in about 2 years, the Republic and the United States have spent a lot of money to build several specially used for space launches.
The maritime activity base is launched and placed in an ideal sea area for a long time. For example, the "Yi Tian" station of the Republic is named after the famous sword and sword in history. It has long been based on Galle in Sri Lanka as the base of Galle in Sri Lanka as the latitude of about 6 degrees north, and has a relatively complete port. It can reach the launch water area within the hour after receiving the order, and prepare for the launch, and then return to Galle in a considerable time. The entire launch process will not exceed the subsequent hours.
Compared with such frequent military space launches, the construction speed of space facilities is much slower.
This is enough to prove that most of the military launches of the Republic and the United States have nothing to do with strategic defense systems, that is, they mainly use simple military experiments. For example, in the island year, the Republic carried out military space launches in just 22 days. On the day of the month, it used the Qingtan Station deployed in the South China Sea and the Yitian Station deployed in the Indian Ocean to launch launch vehicles and space shuttles. During this period, the Republic launched three remaining spacecrafts into outer space, including only the wizards and spacecrafts related to the maintenance of the national strategic defense system. Others were launched projects of an outer space simulation combat drill held that month.
In this regard, the United States is not behind. A month later, the United States carried out military space launches, launching nearly ugly spacecraft into outer space, and most of them were rated launch missions for an outer space combat exercise by the Pentagon Zego.
It can be said that this is true, and almost everyone thinks that the Republic and the United States are burning money at a speed.
Although in the 1990s, as the electricity price dropped to nearly zero, even if hydrogen and oxygen engines were used, the cost of aerospace launch was reduced. It was about the same as the old times the cost of air transport at the beginning of the 1990s. If new fuels based on catalytic metal hydrogen were used, the cost of catalytic metal hydrogen could be further reduced. The prerequisite was that catalytic metal hydrogen could be produced in large quantities specifically for aerospace launches. However, such a huge launch volume could still crush any country. For example, in the year, the cost of the Republic used military aerospace launches accounted for the hospital of the defense budget, which was equivalent to the military expenditure of the Tianjun army that year. Because the United States was relatively backward in the development of catalytic metal hydrogen fuel, its launch vehicles and space shuttles mainly used high-performance hydrogen and oxygen engines, the United States used military aerospace launches to be higher, and the proportion in the national defense budget was about the same as that of the Tianjun army's military expenditure.
It can be seen from this that the Tianjun is definitely the most expensive unit.
Such a huge investment will naturally bring huge returns.
By the end of the year, only the Republic and the United States are truly confident and capable of establishing practical sky armies. Russia and France, which are in the second echelon, can only establish an experimental aerospace force at most, and even cannot improve their own strategic defense system.
It can be said that the new round of arms race with aerospace power as the core has initially compiled the results.
From another perspective, after the four nuclear weapons were launched, Russia and France no longer use the global hegemony as the main purpose, but instead use the struggle between the Republic and the United States to make profits. It is because the two countries cannot win the next round of the comprehensive arms race, and they cannot even get the ticket. In France, by the Tiannian period, the construction of the "European Strategic Defense System" led by France, led by Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, Austria, Hungary, Czech Republic, Slovakia and other countries participated in the construction of the "European Strategic Defense System" has entered the second stage, with only very limited ones, namely, targeting third-rate countries.
Interception capability is not a real strategic defense system. In this way, in the global hegemony, the EU, led by France, is in a very disadvantageous position, and it is impossible to compete with the Republic and the United States for hegemony. Of course, Russia is not much better. Its strategic defense system can only protect big cities such as Moscow, St. Petersburg, and Yekagerin Arbor, and most of the interceptors are deployed on the ground, mainly intercepting in the atmosphere. Because the effect of nuclear warheads in the atmosphere is similar to explosion on the ground, Russia's strategic defense system has almost no practical value.
But for the Republic and the American Games, the game is not over yet.
As the deputy head of state of the Republic and the deputy head of state who directly manages the Ministry of National Defense, Pei Chengyi knew very well that the Republic's Tianjun would have practical combat capabilities as soon as possible.
Fortunately, all the intelligence mastered by the Military Intelligence Agency proves that the construction progress of the US Sky Army is still several years behind.
That's why the initiative is still in the hands of the Republic. Similarly, military theorists of the Republic can use the conclusions drawn from supercomputer group analysis to explore and summarize the aerospace combat tactics in less urgent situations, establish a new tactical system, and use this system as the basis to deduce and predict future wars.
From another perspective, Pei Chengyi can use a war plan to fool those representatives at any time.
In fact, before that, Pei Chengyi did this. You should know that according to the laws of the Republic, when exchanging the defense budget for Jiangxi every year, the Ministry of Defense must explain the purpose of each budget in detail. More importantly, when summarizing the defense expenditure every year, the Ministry of Defense must explain the destination of each cent. In this way, when applying for the budget and summarizing the expenditure, the Ministry of Defense will make detailed statements to the plenary congress twice. Because it takes money to formulate a war plan, and as mentioned above, many huge military projects are related to the war plan, the Ministry of Defense needs to explain to the plenary congress in two times in July every year in detail to the plenary congress in July each year. One of the war plans being formulated only need to be stated to the military committee. In the need of confidentiality, starting from Tian Nian. The plans submitted by Pei Chengyi to the plenary congress were fabricated by the Military Intelligence Bureau. Only Ji Rong who was only submitted to the military committee was related to the actual situation, but it was not detailed enough.
However, Pei Chengyi does not plan to continue doing this this time.
In any case, people like Lin Muxun are definitely not easy to deceive. In fact, before this, Lin Muxun had consulted Pei Chengyi several times, hoping that the Ministry of National Defense could provide more detailed war plans instead of using something that could not stand the scrutiny to deceive the Military Commission. Pei Chengyi also made a guarantee that he would gradually explain to the Military Commission in detail, and in the budget application and expenditure summary of Guannian's concave year, he had shown sincerity and gave some plans related to the core content, including the construction plan of the Tianjun.
In short, because it involves the war a few years later, Pei Chengyi feels that he should go through formal channels.
At the barbecue dinner, Lin Muxun once again stated very tactfully that the central government should be more transparent in military expenditures involving national defense and security, and at least let the military committee grasp more actual situations.
To this end, Lin Muxun also mentioned that if necessary, the size of the Military Commission can be reduced by half according to the requirements of the head of state to improve the confidentiality of replaying information and eliminate leaks. Because reducing the size of the Military Commission is equivalent to reducing the influence of the Military Commission, Lin Muxun has made major concessions. More importantly, if it is done according to Yan Jingyu's request, it means that Lin Muxun took the initiative to hand over the power of the Military Commission. From this, it can be seen that Lin Muxun is very dissatisfied with the opaque military expenditure practice, and is also very dissatisfied with the government's unwillingness to share military information.
.
Although Yan Jingyu did not give an answer immediately, from Pei Chengyi's standpoint, he had to consider Lin Muxun's attitude.
