RNP #444 - Chapter 444: The villain complains first? Lock on, attack indiscriminately, including China!
#444 - Chapter 444: The villain complains first? Lock on, attack indiscriminately, including China!
The time difference between the two places is exactly 12 hours.
Washington, 8 PM.
The President finished his dinner and sat with his family in front of the television, spending a wonderful evening together—though they were not of one mind.
If only the little secretary were by his side!
Young and charming.
He'd find an excuse to work overtime again tomorrow night and have the little secretary work overtime with him.
While lost in thought, his phone rang.
"Donald!"
Seeing it was the Secretary of Defense, his mood soured: "I'm off work, okay? Please don't disturb me…"
"China just sent an urgent message and issued a global statement!"
"Statement?"
"They claim that all the satellites they launched last night were attacked and destroyed."
"Huh?!"
The President was first stunned, then overjoyed: "Haha… Just hearing the news of the Chinese being unlucky makes me feel better immediately—Donald, tell me quickly! Who destroyed their satellites?"
"Mr. President, it's… us!"
"What do you mean?"
"China issued a statement claiming that we used secret weapons to destroy many of their satellites, saying it's an invasion, a declaration of war, and they… in the name of resisting aggression, are going to retaliate against us!"
"What?!"
The President's expression changed drastically.
China's strategic weapons are very poor.
Such as strategic bombers, strategic nuclear submarines, and a large ocean-going fleet—China has none of these.
They pose almost no real threat to the North American mainland across the ocean.
But!
Who told China to build their country near North American bases?
East Ocean.
Southeast Asia.
North American military bases are everywhere.
China can't reach the North American mainland, but they can deal with these bases!
The key is that, apart from mutually destructive nuclear weapons, most of North America's conventional combat power now dares not approach China—they are scared by the pulse weapons.
"Donald! Are you crazy?!"
The President was furious: "Who gave you the authority to attack Chinese satellites without going through me, the President? Do you want to die?!"
Damn it!
For the past few months, he had been swallowing his anger, just waiting to crack the pulse weapon before venting his anger properly.
But…
Before he could crack the pulse weapon, the Secretary of Defense went and stirred up trouble.
"No… No! Mr. President, are you mistaken?"
Donald said with a mournful face: "Where do we get weapons to attack satellites? It wasn't us!"
What?
"Yes!" Donald nodded.
North America.
The world's strongest and only superpower in technology and military.
Satellite weapons are the pinnacle of technology, aren't they?
Other countries don't have them.
If Chinese satellites are attacked, it can only be North America, right?
One can imagine.
Standing in China's position, they just launched several satellites yesterday, and they were destroyed by North America today. How could they not be angry?
"Quick… contact China and solemnly tell them it wasn't North America!" the President ordered.
Before cracking the pulse weapon, he must not fall out with China!
"Yes… Not good!"
Donald just agreed.
One of his subordinates ran over and said urgently: "Mr. Secretary, it's not good! Chinese warplanes carrying pulse weapons have already gone to the Okinawa area, they… they seem to really want to declare war!"
Is a war really about to start?
No!
It's purely to let North America know how angry China is at this moment.
…
Wenchang.
The newly built ground station control room.
Chen Hao and several others are quietly waiting.
Chen Hao is waiting for a phone call.
The other people are waiting for Chen Hao.
Finally, General Wang's call came: "Commander! According to your instructions, we sent an urgent message to North America and issued a global announcement, and military aircraft are also flying to the Okinawa waters—we have done all the appearances we need to make."
"Understood!"
Chen Hao smiled.
Hanging up the phone: "Prepare to start work! Principal Wang, connect to the armed satellites!"
"Yes!"
Wang Shenghong immediately responded.
Last night.
The four major satellite launch bases each launched six carrier rockets, for a total of more than 2,100 satellites.
About 600 high-resolution satellites.
Dozens of Beidou backup communication satellites.
The rest…
Are all armed satellites!
How are they different from the Beidou satellites carrying pulse cannons?
The main function of Beidou is communication.
Building a communication network in synchronous orbit cannot be moved casually, and even if it is moved… as a communication satellite, its maneuverability is very poor.
Installing a pulse cannon…
Is for self-defense!
If enemy satellites approach and pose a threat or hostility, Beidou can use pulse cannons to attack.
But to say that it will go to find enemy satellites and actively launch attacks…
It's hard to do!
Armed satellites are different.
Its only function is—combat!
It has rapid maneuverability and is equipped not only with pulse attacks but also with miniature missiles and close-range robotic arms.
It can attack from a distance.
It can also fight in close combat!
"Identify the satellites of various countries!"
Chen Hao issued an order, while operating on the computer: "Target! Other countries' communication satellites and spy satellites, leaving only their civilian satellites—in addition, our low-value old satellites will also be used as attack targets!"
What?!
Wang Shenghong was taken aback: "General Chen, are you… sure?!"
Not just him?
The other three were all stunned.
What is Chen Hao going to do?
Is he going to declare war on the whole world?!
Chen Hao looked relaxed: "We have formally informed North America that the satellites launched last night were destroyed by them."
"The truth is that it was not North America that attacked our satellites, but that satellites from all countries around the world were attacked."
Everyone was stunned.
Immediately.
They all understood.
It's clearly a case of the villain suing first!
I issued a statement to the world, claiming that the satellites I just launched yesterday were destroyed by North America today.
Look!
I'm going to tear my face and declare war.
North America is the world's only superpower.
China is obviously not an opponent, so why declare war?
Because it's too angry!
It is equivalent to confirming that North America is the mastermind.
Is it North America?
No!
But standing from North America's perspective, once global satellites are attacked, they will immediately determine that this has nothing to do with China.
Someone framed North America and provoked China to go to war.
At the same time, they also attacked North American satellites to further escalate the conflict!
Who did it?
North America is not clear either.
But, China is the least suspected!
"You…"
Hearing Chen Hao's explanation, Wang Shenghong was dumbfounded: "You are… really insidious!"
"What are you talking about?!" Chen Hao glared at him.
"No! General Chen is wise and mighty, planning strategies and winning battles thousands of miles away…"
"Get to work!"
"Yes!"
Wang Shenghong immediately remotely controlled the armed satellites.
The first is identification.
Then there is indiscriminate attack.
That's right!
Chinese satellites are also included in the attack targets.
The difference is that the Chinese satellites that are destroyed are unimportant old satellites.
On the other hand, other countries…
Are leaving those old satellites and specializing in military and communication satellites!
How can you not attack Chinese satellites?
Other countries are not stupid!
Only with indiscriminate attacks can this show be real enough.
Outer space.
A satellite war has begun!
