"What the hell, is their Dongda University really that powerful?"In Washington, in the White House office, George Walker's face was very ugly at this time, because the strength of the University of East China in space seemed to be a little beyond their imagination. The interstellar travel plan has come out. Given the cautious attitude of the University of Tokyo, how could it be possible to come up with such a radical plan? There is only one truth, that is, the strength is too strong, so they have to take risky moves. As a space pioneer, Washington has been on its own since losing its competitor Moscow, and has been on a downward spiral in recent years. If the North American Space Agency really were to launch an interstellar travel program, would it end poorly? "It's hard to say, because Dongda likes to hide its weaknesses. I think they are either deliberately creating confusion and playing the empty city plan, or they are just trying to target Pei Gong. But who exactly they want to target, I haven't figured out yet." At this time, Soris Gaynath spoke: "If their target is us, Washington, then they have undoubtedly chosen the wrong target. But if it's not us, it can't be Moscow, right?" "In the past few years, Moscow has had a harder time in the space sector. Although we all know that they have strong technology, without money, even the best cook cannot make a meal without rice." "Besides us and Moscow, who else is the opponent of the University of Tokyo? Basically, there is no one, so I am more inclined to believe that the University of Tokyo is too strong, so this is the case." "We have been discussing one thing before, that is, the economic development achievements of the University of Tokyo in the past 20 years are indeed obvious to all. That much money must not have been spent entirely on infrastructure. A lot has also been spent in the space sector." "Nantianmen Space Station Project, Lunar Orbital Space Station Project, Moon Landing Project, Moon Base Project, etc. Look, there are so many projects, which must cost a lot of money. So where does the money come from? How much money has been spent specifically?"
Solisgainatt used many Chinese idioms, colloquialisms and proverbs continuously, which shows that his Chinese is really good. In fact, as a member of the leadership team, Solis-Ganet had already proposed the Tokyo University threat theory during the campaign, but no one cared. Whether Dongda is strong or not, he doesn't need to bring it up or talk about it. Because Solis Gaynort had done extensive research on the University of the East and was extremely proficient in Mandarin, he even often spoke Mandarin during meetings, leaving the deputy monitor Andrew Baram and others confused. However, since Solis Gaynort had the support of George Walker, no one dared to say anything. Because George Walker had spent many years at the University of Eastern Michigan with his father Herbert Walker, and he had a natural liking for Mandarin. It was a pity that his current position meant that he could not act on his emotions. After understanding the meaning of Sorisganat's words, everyone nodded silently. Although they don't want to admit it, Todai is indeed united as one, focusing on development and has really made some noise. At this time, Will Dennis suddenly said: "I told you before that Dongda is very strong, you didn't believe me then, do you believe me now?" "We have not been able to obtain more useful information from Beijing. We even sent them to the WTO. Now, in just one or two years, they have developed even faster." "Solis, you studied Chinese. There is a phrase called 'raising a tiger brings disaster'. You should know what it means, right?" Soris Ganaut, who was squeezed by Will Dennis, suddenly turned pale and blue, obviously he was asked a question by the other party. I have to say, Will Dennis's buzzer beater was amazing. "It seems that Solis, you know the meaning of this word very well, hehe!" With a sneer, Will Dennis continued: "We still have a chance now. We can take advantage of the Southeast Asian economic crisis to create some trouble for the University of Tokyo and prevent them from continuing to focus on development. Otherwise, we will be nurturing a tiger to cause trouble." Silibrand and several others also echoed that this was correct, because the University of Tokyo was indeed very strong, and the previous decision to allow the University of Tokyo to join the WTO was not a good decision. It can almost be said that Tokyo's joining the WTO is like adding wings to a tiger, and Washington's stupid actions are just assisting the opponent. After hearing what Will Dennis and the others said, George Walker's face turned blue with anger, but he didn't say anything. As the squad leader, George Walker knew very well what he should do. He had to cultivate his Qi well and not let people like Soris Gaynor discover any clues.
However, just as everyone was talking about it and clamoring to launch various attacks on Dongda, Hassan Norton Parker, who was in charge of the purse, spoke up at this time: "You are so ignorant and stupid. Oh my God, why am I working with people like you?" Everyone glared at him, but Hassan didn't care. He didn't think he had said anything wrong, and even continued to speak crazily: "Look at what kind of people you are. It's fine if you just follow the wind, but you also deliberately undermine your own self-confidence. If Dongda is really that awesome, wouldn't we have been defeated long ago?" "Since World War II, we in North America have actually been a true superpower. The Moscow Alliance back then was only a threat to us because of the alliance, but what about now?" "We defeated the extremely powerful Moscow Alliance, reduced it to ashes and became history. But now you are so scared just because a small fireball appeared over at the University of East China? I am really ashamed for you." "But there is one thing you said that makes sense. The current Asian financial crisis is indeed a good opportunity, especially for Hong Kong Island. This is a breakthrough for us." "In addition, we can also use deception to deceive Dongda. How did we deceive the Moscow Alliance back then? You should still have some impression of it, right? It doesn't matter if you don't know, I know it." The method of deceiving people is actually a media propaganda war, and it is really very useful. In the early 1980s, not long after Ronald Wilson came to power, this actor-turned-class monitor launched his most powerful weapon: Star Wars! Before Ronald Wilson became the monitor, the three monitors, Richard Milhouse, Gerald Rudolph and James Carter, all took a conciliatory stance towards the Moscow Alliance. Why? Because it was the 1970s, when Brezhnev was at the peak of his power and the most domineering. At this time, even Richard Milhouse had to go to the University of the East to seek an alliance in order to fight against Brezhnev. It can be imagined how powerful the Moscow Alliance was at this time. Richard Milhouse was forced to resign, and his successor was Gerald Rudolph. In other words, Gerard's Rudolf did not become class leader through the regular election, so he adopted a conciliatory strategy towards Brezhnev. As for James Carter, although he came to power through the general election, his personality was just like that, and the situation at that time was even more different. Washington is facing endless internal and external troubles, high unemployment and one economic crisis after another. The global economic tsunami caused by the second oil crisis made James Carter exhausted. Therefore, James Carter's attitude towards the Moscow Alliance was naturally relaxed at that time. The most important point was that although he talked about various "ideas", he was actually thinking about business. In other words, what James Carter wants to deal with is the economy. He wants to divert the conflicts within Washington, and he has to ease them. Otherwise, a head-on confrontation with the extremely domineering and tough Brezhnev would only really start the S3 season. Not worth the candle! When it came to Ronald Wilson, he no longer had to hide. It was the 1980s, Brezhnev had already died, and the other successors in the Moscow Alliance were either too old or too weak. They were all busy fighting for power, so how could they have the time to mess with Ronald Wilson? So Ronald Wilson put forward two points. One is to make the other party lose their sense of security while ensuring that you have absolute sense of security. The second is on the economic level, to wear down the opponent through a war of attrition. Star Wars has four main layers, one of which is boost phase interception. The launch phase of Moscow-Soyuz missiles lasts 3 to 5 minutes, during which a large amount of infrared rays are generated, which can be easily captured by space detectors. At this time, the interception mission is carried out by 432 anti-missile X-ray satellites operating in geosynchronous orbit, because each satellite can destroy more than 100 missiles being launched. This anti-missile X-ray satellite has a diameter of 1 meter and has multiple hedgehog-shaped metal tubes inserted on its surface. Once an enemy missile is detected, the satellite will begin to attack. A nuclear explosion occurs inside the satellite, and each metal tube emits a beam of X-rays, destroying the missile. The second is the terminal boost phase interception, which is at the very end of the missile and when the rocket is shut down, and the warhead and penetration device begin to separate from the missile and fly toward the target. It lasts for about 50 seconds.
At this time, laser weapons or kinetic weapons can be used to destroy the warheads that have been released and the mother cabin containing some warheads that have not yet been released. The third is the mid-course interception, which is even more awesome. Because the period from the time the missile releases its sub-missile warhead and penetration device to the time the warhead re-enters the atmosphere is called the mid-course, which lasts for 20 minutes. During interception, kinetic weapons or particle beam weapons deployed on high-orbit launch platforms are used to destroy the incoming missile. Or use an aircraft or combat platform deployed in low orbit to launch an automatic homing interceptor missile powered by a hypersonic rocket. This type of missile can form a dense barrage at a predetermined altitude and directly destroy incoming missiles. The last stage is the re-entry phase interception, which is to intercept the missile re-entering the atmosphere. First, the target is captured by the onboard infrared detector and airborne radar, and then aimed and tracked by the infrared seeker. When it comes to interception, a high-speed short-range missile is launched from the ground, which explodes at a predetermined height to destroy the incoming warhead, or non-explosive projectiles propelled by rockets are used to send thousands of projectiles to the interception altitude through a salvo to block the incoming warhead. In addition, the strong electromagnetic effect of charged particle beam weapons can also render incoming warheads ineffective. Theoretically, the multi-layered defense system planned for Star Wars could have an interception success rate of , but this is a massive and incredibly expensive project with a total budget of $1 trillion. It was precisely because of this extremely costly plan that the Moscow Alliance was successfully intimidated. This combination of punches is somewhat similar to the Zhengguo Canal during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, which is the famous Qin Weakness Plan developed by South Korea. But the Qin State survived and used the Zhengguo Canal plan proposed by South Korea to weaken the Qin State and turned it into a "plan to strengthen the Qin State". This was because the Zhengguo Canal did not consume a large amount of manpower and material resources of the Qin State. On the contrary, the fertile land irrigated by the construction of the Zhengguo Canal provided a large amount of food guarantee for the Qin State to later conquer the six kingdoms and sweep across the world. In contrast, the Moscow Alliance did not survive and was fooled. why? Because Hollywood movies in the 1970s and 1980s had already reached a certain scale. For example, "Star Wars" directed by George Lucas was released in 1977. This paper tiger disguised as soft power was still very intimidating in the 1970s and 1980s. Even in 2024, there are still many people who believe that Washington did not land on the moon in 1969. Ronald Wilson's combination of false propaganda and deliberate confusion really confused those in Moscow who were busy engaging in internal strife and fighting for power. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been disbanded. In addition to the so-called Star Wars, there is another point that has deceived people, and that is, not building aircraft carriers. My goodness, Moscow really agrees with the views of its competitors, believing that aircraft carriers are useless, and then it really stops building aircraft carriers. You know, a few years ago, people like Chen Ce went to Moscow to do trade. Although they were not involved in the arms business, they also knew that Moscow did not have any aircraft carriers. When Zhao Zunmin and his people traded with them, they did not trade aircraft carriers, because Moscow did not have many aircraft carriers. The person who actually implemented these strategies proposed by Ronald Wilson was Herbert Walker. George Walker was of course well aware of this, so when Hassan Norton Parker mentioned this, his expression did not change on the surface, but he felt a little proud in his heart. Unfortunately, his father is gone forever. When other people in the office heard the deception method mentioned by Hassan, they instantly became excited.
It’s not that their brains aren’t working well, but that they just can’t think of it for the moment. However, Siliband raised a question: "Will this method really work against Dongda?" (End of this chapter)
