Chapter 516: Dragon Country Flexes Its Muscles Again, US Aircraft Carrier Performs Emergency U-Turn

"What! Army-level exercise?"

When Renato Marotta heard the news, he felt like a thorn in his back, a thorn in his throat, and sitting on pins and needles. He only felt cold sweat oozing out of his back and forehead.

Perhaps many people have no idea what the value of military-level exercises is.

Let's put it this way, the number of people in a group army of Dragon Country is about 100,000. If two groups of armies conduct military exercises, that means 200,000 people will confront each other.

Can neighboring countries sleep well when 200,000 people conduct military exercises?

Moreover, on the eve of the S2 season, a certain country blitzed Poland in the name of exercises, which made the whole world default to not holding army-level exercises to avoid misunderstandings.

But now Dragon Country wants to conduct military-level exercises, and it is still conducted when Xiaoba Ga is playing tricks and giving enough reasons.

What will start this time?

Will the new season start?

Renato Marotta dare not think about it.

When he felt that it was about to explode, the US building issued an emergency statement, hoping that all parties could calm down.

The phone of the decision-making level of the island country was also bombarded by various countries.

Some advised to fulfill the contract.

Some specifically talked about evacuating overseas Chinese.

Some asked about the real intention.

It is no exaggeration to say that the whole world is putting pressure.

The reason why these countries are panicking is also very simple, that is, dignity is only above the sword, and truth is only within the range of the cannon.

Longguo has just tested an intercontinental missile with a range of 12,000 kilometers and can be equipped with multiple nuclear warheads, and accurately hit the target sea area. If they really want to fight, it’s no joke!

Under the phone bombardment of dozens of countries in turn, the decision-making level of the island country could not bear the pressure and began to put pressure on Hideki Kamioka and Saito Ii, asking them to think of a new way.

When the pressure came to Hideki Kamioka, he almost closed his eyes and burped.

Toyota Group can’t give it, but it needs to appease Longguo. Do you really think he is a god?

Saito Ii is relatively young and can withstand the pressure, but there is still no way, because now it is a dead end.

Although Chen Xing did not do things in a fair way and took advantage of loopholes in the rules, he now does hold 51% of Toyota Group's shares and is the company's largest shareholder.

If you want to cheat and refuse to admit it, Longguo will naturally retaliate in kind.

After all, when SoftBank came to Longguo to invest in Penguin, Alibaba and Baidu, Longguo recognized that it was legal, and hundreds of billions of net profit dividends flowed to the island country every year.

You flipped the table and cheated, I retaliated strongly, which is very reasonable, and there is nothing to criticize.

"Your grandma's legs, do you really think I'm a lubricant, I have to take care of both sides." Saitoi clenched his fists and walked back and forth to complain.

Now, if we say who is the most unlucky, it is undoubtedly SoftBank Group and Keyence Group. Both companies have now been notified that they must pay Longguo hundreds of billions of Longguo currency for "illegal dividends."

Among them, SoftBank Group not only took hundreds of billions of dividends, but also had the proceeds from the sale of stocks, a total of 730 billion yuan to be returned to Longguo.

SoftBank Group doesn't have 730 billion in liquidity.

Even if it has so much money, it has to pay it back.

SoftBank Group and Keyence Group have hated Toyota Group to the core for the disaster.

...

Imperial Capital Time.

00:00 on March 23.

When no one expected it, the Fengtian Military Region had already started live-fire exercises and launched another intercontinental missile.

When Saitoi and Kamioka Hideki were still thinking about countermeasures, the city's air defense alarm suddenly sounded, and the whole Tokyo was in chaos.

They didn't expect that Longguo had just issued a military exercise announcement for less than four hours and actually started to test-fire intercontinental missiles.

In less than ten minutes, Saitoi felt that the house was shaking a little.

"This!"

"This, this, this!"

He admitted that he was panicked.

It's okay to cheat on the weak, but you cheat on the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, which is a bit bullying and overestimating your own abilities.

A Dongfeng intercontinental missile woke up the entire island country's top leaders.

Hideki Kamioka looked at the ICBM drop map, and his breathing became rapid. It was just stuck at the edge of the territorial waters.

You say they are immoral?

They are in compliance with international law!

Besides, speaking of immorality, the island country's top leaders still remember that Toyota Group was acquired. No one should laugh at anyone.

The re-test of the Dongfeng ICBM made the island country's Ministry of Defense completely flustered. Warships, military aircraft and detection radars went into the sea and took off.

Just as the island country's fighter jets took off, the electronic radar showed that 100 fighter jets were coming towards them. This scared the pilot and he quickly picked up the pager to report the situation to the ground.

"Request support!"

"Request support!"

"The radar shows that 100 fighter jets are coming towards me. They have entered our airspace. Request support!"

The moment the voice fell, everyone in the ground command center panicked.

"100?"

"The Dragon Nation is really angry, it wants to destroy us!"

"I already feel that I am being targeted..."

It was at this time that the chief commander of the island nation made a prompt decision and roared: "No time to sigh, all fighters take off, sound the city-wide air raid alarm, and enter full combat preparations!"

Just as he finished speaking, the pilot who originally reported that there were 100 fighters coming towards him quickly changed his report:

"It's electronic interference!"

"All the red dots on the radar have disappeared!"

"Wow——"

The moment he finished speaking, the ground command was in an uproar. You know, the radar they used was provided by the United States. The model was the SPY-3 radar, known as the Eye of God.

The electronic jamming fighter of the Dragon Country could actually confuse its detection. How much did the Eastern power hide?

"This is a naked warning, sir!"

"I can't believe in the S3 season, because I'm afraid we will be killed if we show our heads. Maybe we will be killed if we don't show our heads!"

"Dongfeng intercontinental missiles, new electronic jamming fighters, suicide Reaper drones, the military strength of the Eastern power is advancing by leaps and bounds, just like technology. We can't afford to offend them!"

"Report the situation, sir!"

There were local soldiers of the island country and American soldiers shouting.

At this time, the four-star general of the United States and the commander-in-chief of the island country, Rein Vidal, looked ugly, but he could only report the situation.

However, what he didn't know was that when he used the satellite encryption channel to transmit the message, Zhao Chenguang's shadow troops had successfully intercepted and cracked the key.

When the confidential document was handed to Zhao Chenguang, he showed his white teeth and said happily: "Hahaha, the little bastards are panicking. They really think we are going to start the S3 season. Now they are notifying the United States to send an aircraft carrier to calm the situation."

"If the US aircraft carrier really comes, how should we deal with it?"

Wang Lin asked.

"Come?"

Zhao Chenguang snorted coldly, threw the pen on the table, and said disdainfully: "We couldn't do anything with the aircraft carrier before, but now there are many ways to smash the aircraft carrier. I will report to the old leader first and ask him to add some temporary projects to the two military regions in the exercise."

He didn't avoid Wang Lin. The two have worked together for decades. Except for not being intimate, they know everything else.

"Hello, Xiao Zhao, did you intercept any important intelligence?" As soon as the call was connected, Wang Shan seemed to have expected it.

"Old Chief, you are really good at predicting things. Indeed, you have just deciphered an important intelligence document. The content is that the little bastard next door is very anxious about our exercise and actually wants the United States to dispatch a few aircraft carriers to calm the situation."

"Hahaha!"

As soon as Zhao Chenguang finished speaking, Wang Shan couldn't help laughing several times.

After laughing, Wang Shan joked: "It turns out that they are also afraid. I thought they were not afraid. They dared to play this trick with us. Fuck it."

"What should we do next?"

Zhao Chenguang was very curious.

"Dispatching aircraft carriers, right? Then we will show them how to bomb aircraft carriers."

As soon as Wang Shan finished speaking, Zhao Chenguang's heart skipped a beat and he quickly asked: "Is it an exercise to bomb aircraft carriers?"

"Of course it is an exercise. We are peace-loving, but..."

Wang Shan paused and smiled: "We must let the world know that Longguo has the ability to destroy aircraft carriers remotely."

Once upon a time, the United States said that wherever an aircraft carrier goes, it is all American territory.

In the past few decades, they did so.

Relying on aircraft carrier battle groups to run rampant and shuttle through various seas around the world, conventional means have no way to deal with US aircraft carriers.

It is worth mentioning here that many people have a misunderstanding, that is, they think that aircraft carriers are so large that they must sail very slowly.

In fact, it is not!

Its sailing speed is very fast.

Take the Ford-class aircraft carrier of the United States as an example. Its known speed is 30 knots, and its actual speed is said to reach 35 knots.

The speed represented by 1 knot is 1 nautical mile per hour, 1 nautical mile is equal to 1.852 kilometers. If converted to land speed, 30 knots is equal to 55.65 kilometers per hour.

Assuming that its speed is 35 knots, that is 64.82 kilometers per hour.

Take the middle value of the two data, 60 kilometers per hour, ordinary people drive at this speed if they don’t drive on the highway.

But then again, you are the speed of a car, and it is a 10,000-ton aircraft carrier.

For an aircraft carrier traveling at this speed, in addition to being extremely challenging to the guidance system, it is also necessary to break through the interception of the outer escort ships of the aircraft carrier.

It is precisely because of the difficulties in countermeasures that the US aircraft carriers have been able to dominate for decades.

…

The next day, early in the morning.

When the sun rose in Asia, the whole world breathed a sigh of relief. Longguo did not take any action at night.

Saitoi, Hideki Kamioka, and the high-level officials of the island country all felt sleepy. They did not dare to sleep for a second last night.

Now that the tense nerves are relaxed, sleepiness comes immediately.

Just when they wanted to catch up on sleep to deal with the future situation, a video of Longguo's march suddenly appeared on the TikTok hot search list.

The neat and uniform team, fully armed, and tanks drove into the city roads, and fighter planes were also flying in the sky.

For a while.

The foreign network exploded.

[Youssoufa Eden] (M): "It's the Dragon Army, the strongest army on the surface. It seems that they are really going to conduct a corps-level exercise!"

[Harland Geffin] (Germany): "The tanks have driven into the city, which means they are going to conduct a city attack and defense exercise!"

[Magnus Locke] (Italy): "I heard that Dragon showed a new type of electronic jamming fighter last night. I don't know if the news is true. Its military strength is too strong. If it is the S3 season, I really want to team up with it!"

[Alban Siti] (Poland): "Is this going to be a gamble?"

One by one, overseas comments are stirring the nerves of the island people.

When the marching video was exposed, the supermarkets in the island were instantly emptied, and the international gold price also began to soar.

Even many pacifists began to take to the streets, calling on the island country's top leaders to return the Toyota Group to the Longxing Group.

Attention!

It is to return it to the Longxing Group!

In the eyes of many people, although Chen Xing bypassed the acquisition supervision and maliciously launched an acquisition war against the Toyota Group.

But the winners are the losers. Since he has 51% of the shares, he should be able to control the company.

In layman's terms, Chen Xing did something immoral, but legal, while what the island country's top leaders did was immoral and illegal.

In the case of a legitimate reason, it is very normal for someone to help speak.

If Chen Xing is not right, for example, forcibly demanding Panasonic Group, Sony Group, Nintendo Group, etc., then Longguo has no reason to deter with military strength.

But now he is right!

If he does not deter now, when will he deter?

The people of the island country took to the streets spontaneously, demanding the return of the Toyota Group.

Even if the police were dispatched to stop them, they could not stop their steps.

The island country's top leaders are still wavering, because the United States has sent three aircraft carrier fleets to calm the situation.

But what no one expected was that the Eastern Theater actually started a live broadcast.

The title of the live broadcast was extremely intriguing, called "Delivering Express to a 35-knot Destroyer".

As soon as the live broadcast room opened, it attracted thousands of military fans.

"What does the title mean?"

"Courier is not Dongfeng Express, right?"

"No way, are we going to use intercontinental missiles to hit destroyers with a speed of 35 knots today?"

"Is this possible?"

"The sailing speed of 35 knots is too fast, it feels terrible!"

The barrage of comments kept coming out. In their opinion, intercontinental missiles would definitely not hit destroyers because the sailing speed was too fast.

Those who have learned about intercontinental missiles know that its flight speed is basically above Mach 20, which is a bit like driving a car to hit a moving target. The difficulty is extremely high and basically requires prediction.

Therefore, it is only theoretically feasible for intercontinental missiles to hit aircraft carriers.

Not only domestic military fans dare not believe that intercontinental missiles can hit aircraft carriers, but also netizens abroad who pay attention to the movements of the Dragon Country are incredible.

Renato Marotta hadn't slept for a day and a night. When he learned that Longguo was going to show off his muscles again, he couldn't sit still.

"This is a universal intercontinental missile!"

Renato Marotta couldn't help but complain.

It can hit fixed targets, mobile targets, and carry nuclear warheads. It's just short of being able to hit space targets.

But thinking about it carefully, he felt a chill on his back, because the military strength shown by Longguo was a bit too comprehensive.

Do you think Longguo is only strong in the army?

Its missiles are also very powerful.

When you think that Longguo only has the army and missiles to be on the table, it also has drones, new electronic jamming fighters and new destroyers.

This feels like thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west. Just after not seeing each other for a while, the opponent has become unfathomable.

When Renato Marotta complained, the Ansa military-industrial complex was watching the live broadcast, wanting to see whether the intercontinental missile could hit a destroyer with a cruising speed of 35 knots.

It's no exaggeration to say that Longguo's muscle show during this period has also laid the direction for international funds to choose where to go.

If the S3 season starts, international funds will definitely find a safe place to stay.

What is a safe place?

Switzerland?

It has long been sitting on the wrong side of the fence.

Many countries have already felt that Switzerland is no longer a permanent neutral country.

And Longguo, with its strong military strength, millions of soldiers and tens of millions of reserve troops, has quietly become the first choice for international funds.

…

Two hours later.

The live broadcast screen finally moved.

The live broadcast room screen of the Eastern Theater Command official account switched to the command room, and the radar screen showed that the target red dot was continuing to rush to the high seas of the Pacific Ocean.

"Lock on the target."

At the commander's command, the soldier in charge of the operation quickly turned on the button in front of him and reported: "The Beidou guidance system has been connected!"

"Target signal locked!"

"Report, the target is heading eastward at a top speed of 35 knots to the high seas!"

"Longitude and latitude confirmed!"

"No abnormality in the fine-tuning system!"

...

The commander didn't say anything nonsense. He looked murderous and raised his voice: "Ten-second countdown, ready!"

"Ten!"

"Nine!"

"Eight!"

Every time he read out a number, he showed the imposing and sharp temperament of the Longguo soldiers, like a sharp sword about to be unsheathed.

On the northern coast, the Dongfeng intercontinental missile is ready.

"Three!"

"Two!"

"One!"

When "One" was said, the commander and the soldier responsible for pressing the launch button shouted "Launch" in unison.

After the intercontinental missile was launched, the guidance system began to work.

The Beidou satellite in the sky has already locked onto the target warship and transmitted data to the missile guidance system in real time, and then the micro-adjustment system conducts precision guided strikes.

When the intercontinental missile was successfully launched again, Renato Marotta closed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Once may be luck, two or three successful launches, this can only be strength."

Three consecutive intercontinental missiles have consumed funds that have already exceeded 10 billion.

However, it is these 10 billion that are leveraging trillions of international funds to invest in Longguo.

Don't think that the good development of the United States depends entirely on their own internal resources. In fact, the role of international funds has also played a key role.

Money can travel a thousand miles, and money cannot leave the village. This sentence also applies to the national level.

The reason why the Dragon Kingdom was able to catch up with the century-old development of the West in a few decades was largely due to the period of foreign exchange earning. At that time, the whole country exported imitation products and earned a large amount of foreign exchange cash, so that it had money for development and construction.

The three test launches of intercontinental missiles correspond to the capital market of Dragon Kingdom.

The stock and futures markets, which were originally in a sluggish state, suddenly saw tens of billions of foreign capital enter the market in just a matter of seconds.

Correspondingly, the island country’s stock market once again ushered in a wave of selling.

International capital feels that since the island country can cancel Chen Xing's Toyota Group shares in an aboveboard and aboveboard manner, it may also freeze the chips in their hands for strategic purposes.

Once there is a crisis in trust, it will be a catastrophic change.

Not only stock market futures, foreign exchange markets, and treasury bonds, but also various markets in the island country have experienced rare sell-offs.

The reduction of national debt holdings is very damaging to our vitality.

"Did you do something wrong?"

Ueoka Hideki murmured to himself, he had already driven to the point where he doubted his decision.

At this moment, the screen in the live broadcast room on the computer in front of him switched to the ultra-long-distance real-time shooting screen of the Beidou satellite.

I saw a rapid intercontinental missile accurately hitting the unmanned destroyer traveling at a speed of 35 knots.

"boom--"

The whole world trembled.

"It's really a hit, damn!"

"The intercontinental missile is so powerful that it can hit an aircraft carrier!"

"Not to mention the aircraft carrier, if one goes down, the entire aircraft carrier battle group will be overturned. And the most important thing is that the sailing speed of 35 knots is currently the fastest known speed of an aircraft carrier!"

"If you say that, I'll understand!"

"Don't say anything anymore, it's still those four words, far ahead!"

The barrage in the live broadcast room kept popping up, and everyone in the Dragon Kingdom was proud to speak.

The humiliation of modern history is a pain that cannot be erased.

Many smokers have also stated that the more annual military spending, the better. If it is not enough, they will find ways to smoke because it is better to use the money for national defense construction than to pay it to others.

…

This time, the intercontinental missile accurately hit the 35-knot destroyer. Not only was it captured by Beidou satellites, but also GPS satellites, Mao Xiong, and British and French satellites all captured real-time images.

Although it is vague, what is certain is that this is a real test launch without any fraud.

Dragon Kingdom's intercontinental missiles can really hit destroyers sailing at 35 knots.

Being able to fight destroyers, aircraft carriers, and other ships is a no-brainer.

It was at this moment that the Angsa military-industrial complex urgently notified the three aircraft carrier fleets to turn around and stop interfering in Asian affairs.

Of course, it's not that they don't want to get involved, but they are afraid of being given lunch boxes.

An intercontinental missile costs at most 600 million US dollars, but an aircraft carrier battle group costs tens of billions of dollars.

The U.S. aircraft carrier made an emergency U-turn, and the island country's top brass also knew it immediately. They were all trembling with fear at this moment. The Dragon Kingdom really had the power to make them evaporate in an instant.

After careful consideration and long-term consideration, they silently removed the previous announcement.

Saitoi was also informed that he needed to hold a press conference to take all the blame and notify Toyota Group to make preparations for the acquisition and handover.

After learning the news, Saitoi was silent for a long time. He didn't expect that he would be asked to take the blame. It was really overwhelming for a senior official.

Although he was reluctant, he had no choice but to obey.

After the top leaders of the island country made the decision, Renato Marotta and Creighton both chose to call to persuade them, hoping that the island country could persist and not hand over the Toyota Group to the Longxing Group.

From the perspective of senior officials in the island country, this is just like a scumbag trying to coax a little girl into renting a house. He talks a lot but has no actual actions. They will definitely not be fooled.

Imperial City time.

It's exactly two o'clock in the afternoon.

Saitoi, who was thrust into the limelight, appeared at the press conference. Faced with countless reporters questioning and snapping photos, he chose to plop down and knelt down as soon as he stepped onto the podium and said:

“Private Marseille!”

"Because of my selfishness and misinterpretation of legal provisions, I am here to apologize to Longxing Group. I own 51% of the company's shares and have indeed obtained the right to acquire Toyota Group. Please allow me to apologize to you again."

“Private Marseille!”

"In the future, I will also strengthen my understanding and study of legal provisions. I will no longer act selfishly, and stay private in Marseille!" (End of Chapter)
