239: Chapter 239 First Strategy: Luring the Enemy into the Trap! We must treat Gege fairly!
On the afternoon of the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, after a full five hours, the Supreme Military Region general meeting, which concerned the national destiny of China, finally concluded.
This meeting was an extremely significant high-level gathering convened at a major historical turning point. It marked China's first external military action and the subsequent chain reaction after becoming the first nation on Blue Star to initiate the Fourth Industrial Revolution and enter the era of infinite energy.
At the meeting, in order to thoroughly secure strategic initiative in the era of infinite energy and even the interstellar age, the Chinese leadership assessed the situation, further unified their thinking, and completely transformed their military strategy. Guided by the principle of "striking first to gain the advantage," they established the military strategic goal of "marching west to subdue the Eagles and unifying Blue Star," along with the overarching strategic policy of "acting after others but arriving before them." They actively mobilized all available forces, laying a solid foundation for China to achieve total victory in the Blue Star War. History calls this, the "Tenth Day Meeting"!
The next day, the eleventh day of the Lunar New Year.
Before the Spring Festival holiday had even ended, the upper echelons of China were already in full operation.
As one directive after another was issued, countless highly classified operational deployments were being advanced efficiently, quietly, and intensively.
The Chinese people, still enjoying the last five days of the festive and peaceful Spring Festival, remained completely unaware.
Meanwhile, Xiang Guangming, the key figure who could be called the direct "fuse," was also presented with a brand-new mission.
"What the hell?"
"Undercover??"
At the Golden Crow Control Center, in the Chief Designer's office, Xiang Guangming and General Li Jingwu were having a private conversation via 3D holographic projection.
Listening to what General Li Jingwu said next, Xiang Guangming was completely bewildered.
After a long while, Xiang Guangming shook his head frantically.
"No, no, no, I'm not doing it, I'm not doing it."
"General Li Jingwu, you old schemer, go find someone else if you want to play dirty!"
"I am a scientist, I don't do politics!"
Upon hearing this, General Li Jingwu laughed loudly.
"Hahaha! ... Old Xiang, you old Dove, how do you have the nerve to say you don't do politics?"
"Who was it that pushed Professor Ai Chongfeng to the University of Science and Technology of China ten years ago?"
"Did he go there on his own?"
Exposed, Xiang Guangming became angry from embarrassment.
"That was in the past!"
"Besides, I acted with public interest in mind, all for the sake of China's development. The rapid development of China over these past ten years is obvious to all. Now you're just wiping your mouth and acting like nothing happened, right!"
"Old Xiang, it's not that I want to erase your contributions..." Before General Li Jingwu could finish, Xiang Guangming interrupted, "Don't bring up the past!"
"The main thing is that now, I have completely drawn a line between myself and The Doves!"
"The kind of break that couldn't be more absolute!"
"We walk different paths and cannot make plans together!"
"Listen to the proposals of The Doves, can that still be called the Development Faction?"
"That's nothing more than the Capitulationist Faction, the Saint-Mother Faction, and the Turncoat Faction!"
"Damn it!"
"Now, whenever I think of their faces or hear their voices, I feel sick!"
"Sick!!" ...
"Old Xiang, you..." Just as General Li Jingwu was about to speak, Xiang Guangming interrupted again.
"Don't say any more!"
"General Li Jingwu, you'd better find someone else!"
"I definitely cannot be this undercover agent!"
"And another thing!"
"I'm warning you, General Li Jingwu!"
"Don't try to drive a wedge between Professor Ai Chongfeng and me!"
"Right now, we are the dearest of friends and brothers!"
"If Professor Ai Chongfeng gets the wrong idea, let me tell you, I won't let you off the hook!" ...
Just then, General Li Jingwu suddenly raised his voice and shouted, giving Xiang Guangming a huge fright.
"Xiang Guangming!!"
"You're the only one who can't stop flapping your gums. Can you just listen to me for a second?!"
Xiang Guangming: "You... you go ahead..."
Finally having regained the floor, General Li Jingwu said with a helpless expression,
"This arduous political mission was specially assigned to you by Comrade Lin Mo!"
Xiang Guangming was shocked: "Huh??"
General Li Jingwu continued,
"It's just an act!"
"And the other lead actor in this grand drama, which concerns the fate of the nation, is none other than your dearest friend!"
"Chief Designer Ai, Professor Ai Chongfeng!"
Upon hearing this, Xiang Guangming was bewildered once again.
Professor Ai Chongfeng? A partner?
Xiang Guangming really couldn't figure it out. How could he go undercover among The Doves and be partners with the radical Hawk, Professor Ai Chongfeng?
Could it be... that even if he acted as a "punching bag" and a "venting target," constantly getting picked on and argued with by those Hawks, he could just wipe the spittle off his face and hold no grudge?
Thinking of this, Xiang Guangming was almost at his wit's end.
Is this what you call going undercover?
This is basically turning me into a negative example and a human target!
"Old Xiang!"
"Where has your mind wandered off to now?"
Seeing the changing expressions on Xiang Guangming's face, General Li Jingwu instantly guessed that the guy was overthinking again, and he stopped beating around the bush.
"With our twenty-plus years of brotherhood, would I ever harm you?"
"Listen to me finish explaining the details of the mission, and you'll know why you are the only one who can be this undercover agent!"
"..."
Half an hour later, General Li Jingwu finally finished explaining the specific mission.
"...The drama performed by the two of you will divide Chinese society into two major ideological camps!"
"Regarding this, China will maintain an encouraging stance of fair discussion and treating both sides equally regarding the conflict between The Hawks and The Doves, thereby relaxing the vigilance of hostile forces like the Eagles."
"Under these circumstances, they will inevitably take the initiative to draw closer to the Development Faction, especially to you, attempting to achieve their sinister goals through you!"
"In this way, the strategic initiative will be completely in our own hands!"
"The name of this stratagem is precisely, 'Luring the Enemy into the Trap'!"
"Old Xiang, do you understand?"
As soon as General Li Jingwu finished his last sentence, Xiang Guangming began to clap "clap, clap," his face beaming with unconcealable excitement.
"Brilliant, absolutely brilliant!"
"Too brilliant!"
"General Li Jingwu! When do we start?"
"How about I go contact them today?"
"When it comes to playing politics, I'm the best at it!"
"Watch how I play those disgusting things in the palm of my hand!"
"Hahaha!..."
Xiang Guangming was eager to try, wishing he could start the mission immediately. General Li Jingwu couldn't help but chuckle inwardly.
This god-like speed of changing his expression also gave him more confidence in the success rate of this mission.
"No rush!"
"Let's go find Professor Ai Chongfeng now and refine some of the details!"
Yanhuang Project Research Center. Professor Ai Chongfeng's office.
"What is this?"
"Give the whole country a 'First Lesson of the New Semester' in a few days, focusing on military politics?"
"And the focus is on targeting the Eagles and Japan, as radical as possible?"
"It sounds good, but where would I find the time?"
"Forget it, forget it..."
Looking at the 3D holographic projections of General Li Jingwu and Xiang Guangming in front of him, Professor Ai Chongfeng subconsciously shook his head.
"Hey, don't be in such a rush to refuse!"
"Listen to me first!..."
Xiang Guangming couldn't wait to start explaining. Shortly after, Professor Ai Chongfeng also understood the ins and outs of the matter, and his face immediately showed keen interest.
General Li Jingwu added,
"Chief Designer Ai, Chief Designer Xiang!"
"This mission is crucial, even reaching the point of concerning the future and destiny of China!"
"It must be someone with absolute loyalty and complete trust to be qualified!"
"Therefore, it must be the two of you!"
