113: Section 113

But at this moment, he had to let Hua Country display its due grandeur!

“…”

“I agree!”

“Old Yun is right. We are accustomed to being low-key, but being low-key has never been what we truly wanted to do!”

“And now, being low-key is even less what we should be doing. Lighthouse Country has already oppressed us, and several times the bombing range has extended to our territorial waters.”

“We absolutely cannot tolerate this situation!”

Soon, Chief Yun’s words received the approval of everyone present.

Subsequently.

On the afternoon of the third day of Lighthouse Country’s aircraft carrier fighter jet group’s live-fire military exercise, the Hua Country government made an announcement.

When all the people were in a panic, fearing the spread of war and unable to find peace, day after day.

A piece of news was finally announced—

“The military project that Lin’s participated in has been completed!”

“Three days later, the Hua Country military will conduct test exercises in the southern waters!”

“All unrelated personnel must stay away from that sea area on that day!”

…As soon as this news was released, it instantly became the number one trending topic across the entire internet.

Even multiple countries internationally forwarded and reported on this matter.

After all, Hua Country was facing such a level of suppression from Lighthouse Country.

How Hua Country reacted could almost be said to determine the changes in future international status.

Although Hua Country now leads in multiple technologies, Lighthouse Country is still a hegemonic presence, and most Western countries, along with many countries in the Asian continent, are subservient to Lighthouse Country’s might.

And now, Hua Country suddenly announced that they would also hold military exercises!

Moreover, the destination of the military exercise was in the waters near the coordinates where Lighthouse Country was conducting its drills!

This report immediately made multiple countries around the world focus their attention on Hua Country.

“Three days later, they’re going to hold military exercises near our aircraft carrier?”

The President of Lighthouse Country also received this news, but his reaction was one of disdain.

Because he also learned that.

The final assembly location for Hua Country’s new military equipment was in Yanjing!

This meant that it absolutely could not be the maritime overlord, an aircraft carrier!

That left only one possibility—

“Heh! Just their Hua Country’s fighter jets?”

“What if they succeeded in research and development? What if it’s a new generation of fighter jets?”

“Can one of theirs stand against a thousand of ours?!”

...Chapter 97: Hua Country is about to make a big move! What is everyone discussing?!

Chapter 97: Hua Country is about to make a big move! What is everyone discussing?!

This long-awaited news from the authorities.

Made the entire Hua Country populace feel as if they had found their backbone, and countless people looked forward to it immensely.

“Oh my god, we finally waited for this moment!”

“Watching Lighthouse Country flaunt its power for almost two months, I almost thought the Blue Star was ruled by Lighthouse Country!”

“This is a military project that Lin’s participated in; it must be an incredibly awesome fighter jet!”

“That’s right, I heard it’s already being assembled at Yanjing’s No. 1 Military Factory, and people living in Yanjing can see a large number of trucks going in and out almost every day, so it must be extraordinary!”

“How could a fighter jet made with Lin’s personal involvement in research be simple?!”

“It’s said that Hua Country’s economy declined in the past two months because all the money was invested here. I heard hundreds of billions of funds were used!”

“Damn, is it that terrifying?”

“More than that. As an economics student, I roughly calculated that Hua Country’s economic curve has declined severely in these two months, losing at least hundreds of billions of Hua Currency. Even if only half of that was invested in research, that’s fifty trillion invested!”

“Holy cow, that’s money I wouldn’t dare dream of in my lifetime…”

“Isn’t that obvious, upstairs? This is a national investment, not personal; how can the two be compared?”

“So excited! In three days, we’ll definitely show that Lighthouse Country fleet a good time!”

“It… can, right???”

“Suddenly, I remembered that the official news said the research was just completed and assembly was about to begin, meaning there’s only one…”

“One fighter jet against Lighthouse Country’s almost one thousand?”

“…”

It must be said that the President of Lighthouse Country’s previous policy was indeed very successful.

He let everyone know in advance that Hua Country was researching fighter jets, and then they themselves began to demonstrate the power of their fighter jets.

As a result, this time.

After the initial excitement, the public remembered that for the past three days, Lighthouse Country had been conducting live-fire drills with thousands of powerful fighter jets daily.

The sky full of gunfire and the roaring sound that echoed for thousands of miles across the sea.

All served to remind the people of Hua Country that Lighthouse Country had an extremely large number of fighter jets, extremely strong combat power, and extremely abundant artillery supplies!

Most importantly, they were not afraid of burning money, wantonly dumping expensive artillery fire into the sea every day.

This had already made people in Hua Country’s coastal cities, let alone going out to sea, not even dare to approach the coastline.

So this time.

Even though it was announced that the project Lin’s participated in had been completed.

While the public was excited, there was more apprehension.

Because this almost meant it was their last chance.

If this fighter jet could not demonstrate the strength to contend with Lighthouse Country... or rather, at least show a certain degree of threat, then they would not have the qualification to sit down and negotiate with Lighthouse Country.

Otherwise.

Their Hua Country had already been suppressed for two months, and if the military field demonstrated this time could not contend with the opponent, then only compromise remained.

“Damn, I’m still so worried!”

“Lighthouse Country has the most fighter jets in the world, numbering over ten thousand, while Hua Country, though not few, has only just surpassed three thousand.”

“The most important point is that most of ours are only third- and fourth-generation aircraft, but most of Lighthouse Country’s have already been updated to the fifth generation, and the rest are all no less than fourth-generation aircraft!”

“Still, the same old saying: with only fighter jets, they can’t fly out of their own waters to fight. aircraft carriers are the most important!”

“Yes, with an aircraft carrier as a maritime supply station and transit hub, fighter jets can pose a real threat to other countries!”

“However, at least I hope our newest fighter jet, even if it can’t fly out to threaten Lighthouse Country, can at least protect our territory and territorial waters, right!?”

“Currently there’s only one… even if it shows its strength, the quantity must be increased later to force Lighthouse Country to retreat.”

“So, even if the demonstrated strength is enough to threaten Lighthouse Country, we will still be suppressed for some time?”

“I can say with certainty, yes.”

“Sigh…”

Everyone understood that no matter how powerful a fighter jet was, it was still like distant water that couldn’t put out a nearby fire.

To truly contend with Lighthouse Country in the military field, one must have a matching number of aircraft carriers.

However… everyone knew that the project’s assembly location this time was in Yanjing.

So far from the ocean… even if it was to hide the aircraft carrier project from being built near the sea, by this point, the final assembly location of an aircraft carrier must be a place where it can be launched into water.

After all, if an aircraft carrier were assembled inland, there would be no way to transport it!

After all, an aircraft carrier is arguably the largest vehicle in the world, bar none!

Undoubtedly, both the people of Hua Country and other countries around the world believed that the military project Hua Country was showcasing this time was a brand-new fighter jet.

Even with Lin’s participation.

However, no matter how high its flight speed, how fierce its firepower, how sensitive its reaction speed, or how long its endurance, it was still just one fighter jet.

The key is “one”!

Even the most powerful fighter jet cannot change the tide of battle!

However.

As time passed, the outside world began to feel something unusual.

In a large open area on the outskirts of Yanjing, a massive temporary fence had long been erected, enclosing an area as large as dozens of airports.

The military dispatched heavy troops to guard all exits.

Moreover, the surrounding fences were built a hundred meters high, almost as if an ancient city had been temporarily constructed there.

Hundreds of trucks entered and exited daily, carrying enormous building materials and some special components into this place.

All trucks, whether entering or leaving, were accompanied by a military armored vehicle.

Such a grand and imposing situation naturally could not be ignored.

Furthermore, with so many materials being transported from factories across the country to this location, it was impossible to keep it completely concealed.
