435: Chapter 434 The Storm Is Brewing
"Comrade Feijie, you should settle down for a while!"
Long Jianjun frowned.
"Look at the past few months. How many times has the Orbital Assault Unit been deployed just to handle those international disputes?"
"At least twenty or thirty times!"
"Do you really want to emulate the Eagle and act as the world's police?"
After being rebuked by Long Jianjun, General Yun Feijie just kept grinning.
If nothing else, playing "world police" actually felt pretty good!
However, the prerequisite was having absolute, overwhelming military superiority.
In short, it meant I could destroy your country without any effort, and you wouldn't even have a chance to fight back.
Only such a "world policeman" had true deterrent power.
If one followed the path of the Eagle, ignoring the new situation and changes in the global military landscape, and failing to see that other countries had completed their military modernization processes...
Even third-world countries like the Camels, the Pakistanis, and North Korea had successively acquired hypersonic missiles and even Mushroom Bombs under the guidance of "experts."
If one insisted on forcing the "world police" hat onto oneself, the result would be that not only would one's own subordinates begin to pay lip service while acting against orders, but even neutral countries would oppose you every day.
It would leave one unable to step down on the international stage.
In that case, how would that hat be any different from a clown's hat?
"Comrade Feijie," said Shi Jinghai, the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy, who was standing nearby.
"The Orbital Assault Unit is one of our most important strategic military assets in China."
"Its military deterrent is even greater than that of the Mushroom Bomb, and it is very easy to cause panic in other countries."
"I advise you not to deploy it lightly."
"Especially with the current international situation, which is still fully in line with China's interests. I think you should understand..."
General Yun Feijie stopped smiling.
The more chaotic the international situation, the more it benefited China's development and aligned with China's core interests.
"I understand what everyone means," General Yun Feijie replied solemnly.
"From today on, the Space Force Orbital Assault Unit will shift its focus to China's defense and will no longer intervene in international defense matters..."
Shi Jinghai nodded and smiled.
"That is the right approach."
"To be honest, even if China's defenses were empty, they would still not be comparable to those of other countries today."
"The deterrent power of your Space Force is simply too great. It is time to let our Chinese Navy show its sword!"
...
After the meeting, the Supreme Military Region issued an order.
Various sectors in China quickly began efficient mobilization to prepare the logistics for the Luan Niao Mothership's first deep-space voyage.
Since the Space Force logistics department had already completed most of the foundational work, the logistics preparations went very smoothly.
However, General Yun Feijie's previous boast that "logistics preparations would be completed within ten days" was still too exaggerated.
A month passed.
Time arrived at mid-January 2014, Blue Star calendar.
The massive amount of logistics supplies required for the Luan Bird space mothership to set out for the Asteroid Belt were all loaded onto the ship.
More than 8,000 crew members had also boarded.
Due to the rush and the fact that one had been held just half a year ago, this departure oath-taking ceremony was held simply inside the Luan Niao Mothership.
"Victory is certain!"
"Victory is certain!"
"Victory is certain!"
"Victory is certain!"
Before even having time to spend the 2014 Year of the Horse Spring Festival on Blue Star in half a month, the Luan Bird space mothership lifted off fully loaded, rushing toward China's future.
...
In the boundless space, the Luan Bird space mothership spent a full ten days completing its final acceleration.
The route was very clear.
It was quickly captured by the Sophon, which established a dynamic monitoring model.
At the same time, the dynamic monitoring model was instantly transmitted back to the Trisolaran Fleet, four light-years away.
In the golden hall, countless golden light clusters composed of thoughts began to intertwine.
"The time... has come!"
