Du suddenly entered the highest strategic alert state. It did not have an impact on Chengyi, the front-line commander, because the front-line commander had no strategic jurisdiction, which shocked Xiang Yinghui and Li Cunxun, who were thousands of miles away.

According to the strategic security mechanism of the Republic, the General Staff operates independently. After the Strategic Intelligence Bureau parallel to the Military Intelligence Bureau discovers the strategic abnormalities of the imaginary hostile countries, it will send the strategic alert to the General Staff, the Military Intelligence Bureau and the Central Security Command at the same time. The General Staff and the Military Intelligence Bureau must make a situation assessment within a few minutes, and the Central Security Command decides whether to transfer the state leaders. If it is necessary to transfer immediately, the Head of State Guard under the Central Security Command will send state leaders including the Head of State, Chairman, Prime Minister, Chairman of the Consultative Conference, and Minister of Defense to the nearest strategic command center within a few minutes, or send them to the Republic's "Air Force One" and then the Head of State or other Supreme Leaders to issue a strategic mobilization order.

Even with the minimum requirements, from discovering the strategic abnormalities of the imaginary hostile state, to the fact that the national leaders enter the strategic command center or board the "Air Force One." The reaction process cannot exceed the old minutes. If they enter the strategic alert state in advance, the head of state will issue a strategic counterattack order within minutes after receiving the strategic threat alarm. That is to say, even if they are suddenly attacked, from the air calculation of the enemy's strategic ballistic missile components, the Republic can launch strategic ballistic missiles within a force minute to carry out strategic counterattacks.

The flight time of strategic ballistic missiles with a range of more than 4,000 meters is more than min. The Republic's strategic response mechanism can ensure that the enemy's missiles fall. Because in large-scale nuclear wars, the opponent's strategic counterattack force will definitely be first to attack, so speeding up the reaction speed and shortening the reaction time plays a crucial role in preserving the strategic counterattack force.

Taking a step back, the enemy's attack came suddenly, destroying the Republic's land-based strategic ballistic missile base in one fell swoop. Because any nuclear power has at least a thug at all times. Strategic nuclear submarines are performing strategic alert tasks. Like nuclear powers like the Republic and the United States, they usually have three views of strategic nuclear submarines patrolling at sea. When the situation is tense, all strategic nuclear submarines will go to sea. Therefore, after the land-based strategic counterattack force is destroyed, as long as a strategic nuclear submarine survives the strategic strike of the enemy, it can launch a fatal counterattack against the enemy.

Under normal circumstances, among the three-in-one strategic deterrent forces of superpowers, the strategic bomber troops are in a system and perform strategic patrol tasks continuously, that is, always ensuring that at least thugs are patrolling over the local area to avoid all nuclear forces being destroyed by the enemy's sudden attack. Strategic bombers carrying out strategic patrol missions can immediately launch nuclear counterattacks against the enemy after receiving the order.

With the improvement of missile technology, land-based strategic ballistic missiles have long been deployed maneuverably, and their strategic survivability has been unprecedentedly improved. Even if the range exceeds the thugs' kilometer, it can carry up to ten thousand tons of nuclear warheads, mid-section baits and old terminal baits, and use a new solid-fuel rocket engine. The launch mass of the "Yu type strategic ballistic missile with three-way rail change capability is not enough to damage tons. It can be loaded with heavy trucks with a load capacity of tons, and rely on highway maneuvering deployment to carry out strategic strikes on any enemy country around the world at any location in the Republic.

In order to ensure that the strategic response mechanism is effective, exercises are conducted at least once a year. Although national leaders are not generally required to participate, according to unwritten rules, each national leader must participate in the exercises in the first year of his term of office and be familiar with the strategic response mechanism of the Republic. If conditions permit, it is best to participate every year.

During the entire reaction, the situation judgment between the General Staff and the Military Intelligence Bureau was particularly critical.

Not to mention that wrong situation judgments will disrupt the work arrangements of national leaders. After the strategic response mechanism is activated, national leaders will immediately leave the capital that is easily attacked. They cannot accurately grasp the external situation before reaching the strategic command center or boarding the "Air Force One". If a strategic counterattack is needed immediately, the situation judgment of the General Staff and the Military Intelligence Bureau is the only basis for national leaders to make strategic decisions. In other words, if the situation judgment of the General Staff and the Military Intelligence Bureau is incorrect and adopted by national leaders, the Republic will not launch a strategic counterattack, but a preemptive strategic strike, which will inevitably lead to devastating disasters.

Due to technical restrictions, the strategic early warning system often issues errors and asks to alert.

According to data released by the US government, during the Cold War of the United States and the Soviet Union, the predecessor of the North American air defense system, the predecessor of the US national missile defense system issued more than 10,000 false alarms, an average of more than 3 times a day. Even if it only makes one mistake, it will cause the United States to drop tens of thousands of nuclear warheads into the former Soviet Union. The former Soviet Union's strategic early warning system also issued tens of thousands of false alarms during the Cold War years, and any false alarm may lead to a devastating disaster. After the Republic expanded its nuclear arsenal, it established a more complete strategic early warning system, and the more complex the system is, the more likely it is to malfunction. According to statistics from the Strategic Intelligence Agency, between the years from the reunion to the concave year, the Republic's strategic early warning system issued a total of thugs and his heart and mouth false alarms, an average of more than 2 times a day.

Because nuclear powers ensure mutual destruction, the nuclear threat has never disappeared, so no matter how high the false alarm rate is, the strategic warning system cannot be abolished. In order to avoid the catastrophic consequences caused by the error in the early warning system, each nuclear power has established a complete strategic response mechanism, and multiple agencies evaluate the strategic situation and make strategic decisions after cross-comparison. Before the US president makes a strategic decision, he must listen to the situation assessment reports of several agencies, including the Department of Defense, the National Security Agency, and the Central Intelligence Agency.

Although the strategic response of the Republic is so complicated, the state requires three independent institutions to be destroyed, among which the assessment reports of the General Staff and the Military Intelligence Bureau are the most important. Unless the enemy's nuclear warheads have landed on the Republic, the head of state can make strategic counterattack decisions only if the situation analysis of the General Staff and the Military Intelligence Bureau is completely consistent. In order to ensure that the head of state makes mistakes in strategic decisions, when the head of state issues counterattack orders to the strategic counterattack force, the chief of the General Staff, the chief of the Military Intelligence Bureau, or the chief of the Strategic Intelligence Bureau, or the commander of the Central Security Forces, must issue orders to the counterattack force at the same time. In other words, a senior leader of the Nobel government and a senior general of the thugs and a senior general of the army must issue counterattack orders at the same time, and the strategic counterattack force will launch a counterattack.

Such a complex decision-making and command system must have its rationality.

It can also be seen from this that the importance of the Chief of General Staff and the Chief of Military Intelligence in the strategic power of the Republic. At that time, the State promoted the Military Intelligence Bureau from a subordinate agency of the General Staff to an independent intelligence agency in order to avoid the Military Intelligence Bureau losing its independent judgment ability under the jurisdiction of the General Staff.

After receiving an alarm from the Strategic Intelligence Bureau, Li Cunxun immediately contacted Xiang Yinghui by phone.

The two talked about the thugs on the phone for less than a minute. After reaching a consensus, they set off separately for the head of state.

Fortunately, both Li Cunxun and Xiang Yinghui believed that India had entered the highest strategic alert state, which does not mean that India intends to use nuclear weapons immediately and does not pose a fatal threat to the Republic.

When the two rushed to the head of state, the Republic's strategic defense system had already been activated.

According to the view of some countries, strategic defense has the same strategic position as strategic strikes, because when a country holds a solid shield that is sufficient to resist the strategic strikes of the enemy, it will use the offensive spear without any mercy to improve the strategic defense capabilities, which is equivalent to lowering the threshold for strategic strikes, thus normalizing strategic strikes. The most representative one is the Japanese war. If the Republic does not have a strategic defense capability that is sufficient to resist Japan's strategic strikes, it will not only not preemptively destroy Japan's nuclear facilities, or even provoke a war. However, the Republic and the United States have always believed that the strategic defense system is a pure defense system, not only not only has the ability to achieve strategic strikes.

It also played a positive role in promoting the comprehensive destruction of nuclear weapons. Before the Republic and the United States established a national strategic defense system, the strategic strike mechanism to ensure mutual destruction between nuclear powers was a practical strategic defense mechanism, which caused the nuclear arsenal of supernuclear powers to be filled with nuclear warheads that were enough to destroy all human beings four times. After the emergence of the strategic defense system, it not only effectively reduced the deterrence ability of nuclear weapons, opened the door to nuclear disarmament, and reduced the number of nuclear weapons in nuclear powers. It also laid the foundation for the ultimate destruction of all nuclear weapons, and fundamentally dismantled the Damocles Sword hanging above the heads of all human beings.

Two different views reflect the fundamental interests of nuclear states at two levels.

Nuclear countries that are unable to establish a national strategic defense system naturally do not want the nuclear weapons in their hands to become decorations, while countries that are able to establish a national strategic defense system naturally do not want to put down their shields.

Because only the Republic and the United States have the ability to establish a complete strategic defense system, the superpowers have a unanimous interest in this issue.

According to the Strategic Memorandum of Understanding reached by the Republic and the United States, neither country is directed at the strategic defense system of each other.

In other words, the standard for measuring strategic threats between the Republic and the United States is not whether the other party activates the strategic defense system, but whether the other party mobilizes strategic strike forces. That is to say, after the Republic activates the strategic defense system and increases the strategic defense level, it will not have an impact on the United States.

The purpose of the Republic and the United States to reach a "Strategic Memorandum of Understanding" was to normalize the strategic defense system, and to suppress second-rate nuclear powers, including Russia and France, to distance themselves from superpowers and ordinary powers, and to consolidate the status of two superpowers.

Because the strategic defense system is launched according to the preset plan, Xiang Yinghui and Li Cunxun do not need to worry about it.

When the two arrived at the head of state, the head of state guard had strengthened the security level. "The tilted rotary wing transport aircraft had already stopped on the lawn of Xipu Garden, and the two huge energy propellers were whirling and could take off at any time.

"Why are you here now?" Jiao Piaoshan, who came to greet the two, seemed anxious.

"Where is the head of state?" Xiang Yinghui asked directly.

"I'm still in the study, and the head of state said he would only leave after seeing you.

Xiang Yinghui was stunned for a moment, then smiled and shook his head.

Li Cunxun glanced at the guards around him, followed Xiang Yinghui, and accelerated his pace towards the study.

"I said, I can't leave now, let's arrange for the Chairman and the Prime Minister to leave first, I must stay.

When they came outside the study, Xiang Yinghui and Li Cunxun heard Wang Yuanqing's roar.

"Head of the People's Republic of China, General Xiang and Director Li have arrived."

Hearing Jiao Jishan's words, Wang Yuanqing turned his gaze from the commander of the security guard to the gate.

"Head of the People's Republic of China, General Zhang is also considering your safety. There is no need to get angry, right?" Xiang Yinghui walked over quickly and nodded to Major General Zhang Zhiyang, the commander of the Central Security Force, standing opposite Wang Yuanqing.

"I didn't get angry, I just felt there was no need to make a fuss."

When Li Cunxun walked over, he glanced at Zhang Zhiyang and whispered: "You go out first. The strategic defense system has been activated. Both Mr. Xiang and I think it is a false alarm."

"False alarm?" Although Li Cunxun suppressed his voice very low, Wang Yuanqing still heard it.

Hearing Li Cunxun say this, Major General Zhang Zhiyang turned around and left the study. Although Li Cunxun was not Zheng Erba, he was the former military intelligence director corresponding to the rank of Lieutenant General. So he had to obey Ge Cunxun's second: Six

Li Cunxun nodded, sat down next to Xiang Yinghui, and said, "Mr. Xiang and I both think they are false alarms. Although India has entered the highest strategic alert state, and the top leaders including the Indian Prime Minister have evacuated, there is no evidence that India's strategic strike forces have entered the highest combat readiness state, and we have not received any relevant information. It is concluded that this is either a defensive measure against our army's upcoming general offensive on the Eastern Front, or a strategic defense drill for a possible war."

"Carry strategic defense drills during the war?" Wang Yuanqing seemed unbelievable.

"If the latter is excluded, the former is the only one." Xiang Yinghui picked up the cigarette and said. "Although India has ruled out the possibility of extreme war measures, Xiao Li and I believe that India's move has a deeper meaning."

"What is a deeper meaning?" Wang Yuanqing glanced at Xiang Yinghui and turned his eyes to Li Cunxun.

"What we worry most is not the strategic nuclear threat, but the use of tactical nuclear weapons in India."

Wang Yuanqing's brows jumped a few times, and Li Cunxun continued to say it.

"Although several nuclear powers, including the United States, have reached a preliminary consensus that no matter what catty or pound of the country, no matter how big it is, they cannot use nuclear weapons against enemy countries in war, but in terms of details, there is no opinion on the thug.

In other words, if India uses nuclear weapons to deal with our combat forces in the war to defend its homeland, and uses nuclear weapons on its homeland, then does India's actions pose a nuclear threat to us, and should we retaliate against India?" Li Cunxun took the cigarette handed by Xiang Yinghui and said, "From the perspective of international law, any country has the right to defend its territory and has the right to use all means of war within its own country. It can be seen that if India uses it

For tactical nuclear weapons, we cannot carry out strategic nuclear counterattacks. The basic standard for defining tactical nuclear strikes and strategic nuclear strikes is the explosion location of nuclear weapons. That is to say, even if we use nuclear weapons for tactical purposes, as long as the nuclear warhead explodes in India, it is a strategic nuclear strike, not a tactical nuclear strike. Judging from the current situation, what is most worthy of our concern is that when India cannot use conventional military forces to defend the eastern region, it is very likely to use tactical nuclear weapons."

Wang Yuanqing nodded slightly and did not rush to speak.

"If India uses nuclear weapons in war, the first thing to consider is our comprehensive nuclear retaliation." Xiang Yinghui took over Li Cunxun's topic and said, "In this way, the first thing India needs to do is to increase the strategic alert level, evacuate national leaders, including the Prime Minister, and avoid the destruction of state power and military command institutions by us. From this, it is very likely that India is preparing for re-tactical nuclear weapons."

Wang Yuanqing exclaimed and said, "According to your ideas, after India uses tactical nuclear weapons, we launch a strategic nuclear counterattack. At this point, what reason does India have to not launch a strategic strike against us?"

Xiang Yinghui and Li Cunxun both frowned, obviously stumped by this pound of problem.

"With India's strategic nuclear power level, is there any capital to challenge us? Even if we first implement a strategic nuclear strike against India, as long as India's nuclear warhead falls within our territory, India will be done. As the Indian leader, Rurajapani cannot ignore this issue. Whether it is tactics or strategy, as long as there is nuclear weapons, he has to think twice before he can take action and will never give us the opportunity to launch a strategic nuclear counterattack."

Xiang Yinghui nodded and agreed to the head of state's opinion.

"There is one thing we cannot ignore." Li Cunxun did not immediately change his point of view. "Since the war started, the Indian army's performance has been very sluggish. As our army launched a general attack on the Eastern Front battlefield, India will soon lose the entire eastern region. Although Lulajapani was very cautious on the issue of war, and after the war started, he took advantage of the opportunity of the country entering a state of war to control the top Indian generals and implement emergency wartime policies, no one can guarantee that with the increasing hope of India's victory, the intermediate officers of the Indian army, especially those who were around thirty years old and affected by the great expansion of national righteousness after the Fourth India-Pakistan War, will not take risks."

"You mean," Wang Yuanqing hesitated for a moment and said, "In this way, we must be careful."

Seeing that the head of state had attracted the attention of the head of state, Li Cunxun didn't say anything more.

"The Military Intelligence Bureau must strengthen its surveillance of India, especially its surveillance of Indian leaders and command agencies." Wang Yuanqing exclaimed and turned his attention to Xiang Yinghui, saying, "No matter what, our officers and soldiers must not be allowed to fight under India's nuclear threat. Several tens of thousands of soldiers are related to the fundamental safety of the Republic. The strategic defense system must be deployed in the front and special forces must be arranged to find and eliminate India's nuclear forces, especially mobile-deployed tactical missiles. I am not very clear about the specific tactics used. I only have one requirement, that is, missiles carrying nuclear warheads must not be allowed to take off, and India's nuclear warheads cannot explode above our army's heads."

Xiang Yinghui nodded, saying that he knew what to do.

On the way to the General Staff, Xiang Yinghui issued an order to the strategic defense force, first sending the air-based laser interception system with the best maneuverability to the Shannan area. After freeing up the air transport force, he then sends the ground-based missile defense system responsible for the interception tasks of the terminal outer atmosphere and the ground-based laser interception system responsible for the interception tasks of the terminal atmosphere to the front line to strengthen the strategic defense forces of the front line combat forces.
