Chapter 2301 Muddy Waters
The old man on the right tapped his pen on the table, and then looked through the materials submitted by the investigation team on the table.
After a moment, the old man spoke, "Team Leader Lehman, I have read the report you submitted."
"There are many words like 'suspected', 'possible', and 'probably' in these materials. Can I say that most of this material is uncertain and fabricated?"
"In other words, the conclusion drawn from this material is simply a possible conclusion."
The old man spoke sharply and asked Team Leader Lehman who reported directly.
Lehman listened calmly, and then turned to the old man, "Mr. Lance, although there are many doubts in our investigation, we can find this 'doubt' based on facts."
"We have made detailed explanations of these in the report."
Lehman said seriously, but the old man did not buy it, "That is not enough to prove your conclusion."
"You know, the Blackbird represents our highest technological essence, and even the Alliance does not have this technology."
"But your conclusion tells me that the Blackbird was shot down, which is unscientific."
The old man said After finishing, Lehman was about to refute, and the old man with the medal in the middle position raised his head, "Yes, I agree with Mr. Lens's judgment."
"Moreover, I don't think the other party has the strength to destroy our Blackbird reconnaissance plane."
"I don't think the other party has the courage to provoke the great United States."
"You know, that's more than 20,000 meters high. In my opinion, that height has exceeded the scope of territorial waters, so it should be considered free airspace."
"How dare they attack us?"
The old man with the medal said disdainfully, and the old man on the right side also nodded in agreement.
First, they didn't believe that the Blackbird could be shot down, and second, they didn't believe that the other party would attack at such a high altitude.
When the Western people heard the two people say this, they all fell silent. Although they didn't care in their hearts, they looked serious and solemn.
At this time, the white-haired old man on the far left finally spoke.
"I think Team Leader Lehman has done a good job. Although it took a little time, the situation in these materials shows that they have put their heart into it."
After listening, Lehman looked at the old man gratefully.
"As for the problem Mr. Lance mentioned, it may be related to Mr. Lance's work, and he doesn't understand intelligence work."
After saying this, Lance on the right looked ugly, and the pen in his hand was placed on the table, then he crossed his arms and leaned on the chair without saying a word.
"Sometimes intelligence reporting requires accurate information to support intelligence, but there are also some intelligence that requires our staff to follow the clues, unravel the cocoon, and express the most likely things."
"And these guessed situations are often closest to the truth."
The white-haired old man seemed to be explaining something, but he felt that he had said too much.
Then he looked at the old man with the medal next to him, "As for what you said, it's hard to say whether the other party dares to do it now, but more than ten years ago, the other party crossed the river without hesitation."
Hearing this, the old man with the medal blushed and leaned back on the chair with the old man on the right.
Seeing this, the white-haired old man achieved his goal and took the initiative in the interrogation. "Lyman, this report shows that the other party launched a missile from an airplane."
"Does that prove that it was the advantage of the missile or the reason of the airplane?"
Hearing this, everyone looked at Lyman again.
I thought Lyman would give an answer quickly, but at this moment Lyman smiled bitterly, "I'm sorry, sir, I know this is unfortunate news, but I still want to say that the other party has a missile that can catch up with the Blackbird."
"Moreover, according to the pilot's last reaction, this missile should have been launched from an airplane."
"Launched from an airplane?"
"It was faster than the Blackbird reconnaissance plane, otherwise how could it catch up?"
"No, is the other party's plane so fast?"
Some people began to doubt one after another, and the voices became louder and louder.
"Quiet, quiet."
The old man with the medal in charge of the meeting shouted immediately, and everyone soon calmed down.
The old man with the medal looked at Lehman, and then asked seriously, "Team Leader Lehman, you have to know what you are talking about."
Lehman nodded solemnly, "Sir, I know."
"Every word I said here today is the result of thinking."
"Every word I said will be responsible for the great and free United States."
"It is because of my passionate feelings for the United States that I made the most appropriate conclusion."
After Lehman finished speaking, his expression was serious.
The three old men at the top were silent.
The white-haired old man was even more trapped in his own world.
If the other party has the ability to intercept the Blackbird reconnaissance aircraft, then the entire earth will lose the surveillance of their United States in the future.
If the other party knocks out their eyes and ears, they will not know that the mushroom eggs are quietly delivered under their noses.
The white-haired old man was a little at a loss for a while.
Until the end, the white-haired old man calmed down and asked, "Do you think these missiles and aircraft were developed by them?"
Lehman shook his head, "It's not clear, but they must have some in stock."
The white-haired old man asked Lehman to sit down, and then looked at Lawrence beside him.
"Lawrence, what is your intelligence?"
Lawrence next to Lehman stood up immediately.
"Sir, we are investigating the other side's military industrial units."
"During this period, the other side has a total of two weapons, one is the surface-to-air missile code-named Jinglei."
"This missile has been fully tested in actual combat in Shanghai."
At this point, the old man with the medal in the middle snorted coldly, as if his scar was revealed, and Lawrence immediately changed the subject after hearing it.
"The other one is Baiju, and the other side's code name is J-10."
"We have investigated this name, and the main fighter jet currently in service is called J-7."
"If it is arranged according to numbers, there should be two aircraft, J-8 and J-9, in the middle, but the other side is called J-10."
"This shows that the performance of this aircraft is much better than J-7."
"All of the above fully demonstrates a problem, that is, the enemy has a high-speed aircraft."
After Lawrence finished speaking, this can be regarded as a disguised proof of Lehman's conclusion.
As Lawrence finished speaking, the whole conference room was whispered again.
Obviously, everyone still couldn't understand why the other side suddenly had the power to restrain them?
"Well, I think we have the answer now."
Finally, the white-haired old man spoke. After he finished speaking, the old man with the medal and the old man on the right just nodded, but did not express any opinions.
Seeing that the two did not speak, the white-haired man nodded to Lehman and others, "Okay, gentlemen, your mission has been completed, you can go back and enjoy your vacation."
This book has been updated recently in ##六x-on:x-on:九x-on:x-on:x-on:书x-on:x-on:吧!! Update!
Lyman Lawrence and others immediately stood up and saluted, "Thank you, sir."
Everyone lined up to leave, and only the three people in front of the round table were left in the room.
"Lance, what do you think?"
The old man with the medal in the middle asked.
At this moment, the expressions on the faces of the three people were different, but there was one thing in common, that is, there was a dangerous light flashing in their eyes.
"The other side is not as easy to manipulate as before, especially in that battle, they have gained confidence."
"And we are now stuck in the quagmire of the jungle, and the war is stalemate."
"So, I think we should stop this provocation and focus on the battlefield in the south. We can relax other policies appropriately."
"Besides, we are the provocateurs now. In the absence of strong evidence, it is better to maintain the current relationship."
After Lance finished speaking, the old man with the medal looked back at the old man in the daytime, "What do you think?"
The white-haired old man picked up the pipe he carried with him, pressed the tobacco, and lit it with a lighter.
The other two were not impatient, but waited quietly.
"Some things don't need to be 100% sure."
"It's very dangerous. You all know that if our aircraft cannot conduct effective reconnaissance, many things will be out of control."
"Once we lose control, we will lose our sense of security."
"This will be a very, very dangerous thing for the great and free United States."
"So, we must make our voices heard and deter Xiao Xiao."
After the white-haired old man finished speaking, Lance was about to refute, but was stopped by the old man with the medal of honor.
"That makes sense!"
The medal man said seriously, "Now many countries are watching us. If we retreat at this moment, it will be a major blow to our international reputation."
"This kind of thing must not be allowed to happen."
The old man said firmly.
Lance had to agree, "Then what should we do?"
The old man looked directly at the white-haired old man and said nothing.
The white-haired old man was silent for a moment, and then a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, "Since the other party wants to hide it and doesn't want to expose it, then we might as well just expose it and see how they deal with it."
"Besides, if this is true, there are many more people who are more worried than us."
After hearing this, the two thought about it in their minds for a moment, and then nodded in agreement.
In the city of Sijiu, the sky was dim and the cold wind was howling.
The lights in the office were not turned off yet, and the thin old man was writing furiously and reviewing the materials.
The establishment of the Nine Departments is not only busy with Yang Xiaotao, Liu Huaimin, Lao Hong and others, but also he, the chief steward, has to be distracted.
However, looking at the current situation, the affairs of the Nine Departments are handled very well.
Especially, every development direction has output, not just empty talk, which the old man is very pleased about.
Just when the thin old man quickly finished processing the documents and was ready to go to bed, Tong Xiaolong walked in quickly outside the door, holding a report in his hand, looking nervous.
"Chief, this is an inquiry from the United States."
Tong Xiaolong held back his anger and handed the paper over.
If it weren't for the old man's clear decision, no matter how late it was, as long as it was a foreign telegram, he would have known it as soon as possible.
Otherwise, he would have postponed it long ago.
After the thin old man took it, he read it carefully.
After a moment, the old man showed a trace of anger on his face.
These guys are simply robbers. They actually said that trespassing was unintentional, and they also turned the tables and said that the plane was shot down. They need an explanation.
"These shameless guys."
The thin old man's literary literacy prevented him from scolding other words, but shameless is indeed a proper description.
However, the old man looked at both sides again and knew that the other party was not aware of the Blackbird captives.
Obviously, the other party was more inclined to believe that the Blackbird reconnaissance plane was destroyed.
The reason for doing this is to muddy the waters and let other interested people know about this situation.
But in this way, Baiju and Pili No. 3 will have to choose one to reveal the truth.
