Chapter 925 Restarting Ermao Denuclearization

After hearing these words, even Mr. Zhang could not continue to maintain the character of the old monk in meditation.

He suddenly raised his head, with a serious expression, staring at Chang Haonan with a pair of tiger eyes.

As a veteran soldier who fought in the Anti-Japanese War and fought in self-defense, even though he is over seventy years old, the sense of oppression exuded by long-term battles has not been weakened by half.

It wasn't until Chang Haonan felt a little hairy that the other party finally spoke:

"Your idea surprises me a little."

As soon as he said this sentence, Mr. Zhang's expression changed back to his previous expression of no sadness or joy:

"I thought after the last success in the Western Balkans you would become path dependent on that approach..."

The content of what he said seemed a bit like a joke, but there wasn't much of a joke in his tone.

"Chief, are you testing me?"

Chang Haonan opened the skylight and answered openly:

"Although the background of these two incidents is related to the Americans, or the US military, the actual situation is completely different."

"When the Allied forces acted, it was the other side that bullied the weak and illegally invaded, and they also wanted to trick their European allies. By the time the EU reacted, the situation was already out of their control."

"At this time, the whole world is happy to see us secretly working to change the situation. Most countries don't care at all about who is behind the scenes, so until now, quite a few people believe that it is the Russians. The ghost.”

Hearing what Chang Haonan said, Qiao Chenqing next to him couldn't help but smile.

Although he did not participate in that meeting, when he took over the position of air force commander some time ago, he learned about the entire decision-making process from his old partner Liu Yaoshun.

Compared with what others had known for a long time, it was still a little less settled, so I didn’t hold it back.

But having said that, taking this blame is not necessarily a bad thing for the Russians.

Because this helped them recognize the reality from the side and avoid policy swings in the critical years at the turn of the century.

In 2014, the script was staged ahead of schedule.

Of course, Chang Haonan, who was highly tense at this time, did not notice what was happening around him. Instead, he quickly organized language in his brain and continued the topic just now:

"But after all, it is the United States that is being attacked first, and this is an indiscriminate attack that mainly targets civilians. At this juncture, it is not appropriate to stand on their opposite side."

"Is this the only reason?"

Mr. Zhang asked while turning the tea cup on the table with one hand.

Obviously, he thinks that just getting here is not enough to justify himself.

It has to be said that although he has only met Chang Haonan twice, Mr. Zhang has almost figured out the former's routine.

At this time, Chang Haonan no longer needed to hide anything. Instead, he needed to provide enough persuasion to pave the way for a big plan behind him.

Therefore, after a short pause, he told the truth:

"Moreover, two things can be seen from past historical experience."

"First, if you support these organizations that use terrorist means to achieve their goals, you will sooner or later be counterattacked by them, so you should avoid siding with them in any form."

"Second, this area of ​​West Asia and North Africa, especially West Asia, has been a quagmire that is easy to get in and difficult to get out of since ancient times. The Americans withdrew quickly last time so they were not trapped in it, but they cannot be like that every time. Good luck.”

Compared with the slightly thin rhetoric at the beginning, these two reasons are obviously much richer.

At least there was some satisfaction in Mr. Zhang’s eyes——

The first one goes without saying.

Shortly before the adjournment, the intelligence agency on the other side of the ocean had made public its preliminary investigation results and pinned the mastermind of the attack on a certain bearded leader of Al Qaeda.

And this leader is the leader of the "resistance force" that Americans personally trained and supported more than ten years ago.

If the timeline is pushed forward a little further, then the birthplace of modern international terrorism is the Kingdom of David.

And they also got their own boomerang in Munich in 1972.

The key lies in the second point.

"So Xiao Chang, do you think the next flashpoint of the conflict will be Aiwuhan... or the surrounding areas?"

This time, it was not Mr. Zhang who asked the question.

But Fu Youquan.

At first, he breathed a sigh of relief because Chang Haonan took the initiative to help him out.

As a result, before he could even take a breath, he heard the other party's judgment that "a war will begin."

Combined with the subsequent rounds of questions and answers, although Chang Haonan did not say it explicitly, it is not difficult to hear that he was hinting at the country of Wuhan in his words.

After all, this is where Mr. Bin Laden made his fortune.

As a result, the heart that had just been relieved became suspended again.

You know, Aiwuhan and Huaxia are serious neighboring countries.

Although the distance seems very far at first glance, if you zoom in on the map, you will find that the two sides are connected by a narrow strip of about 300 kilometers long and less than 100 kilometers wide - the Wakhan Corridor.

This involves very complex national, historical and diplomatic issues, but in short, if chaos breaks out in Aiwuhan, it will not be good news for China.

The trouble is, if Aiwuhan doesn't become chaotic, it may not be a good thing either...

Highlight a dilemma.

Therefore, after Mr. Zhang's question came to an end, he asked almost immediately.

If another non-professional staff member made this judgment, Fu Youquan would most likely just listen casually and choose to wait and see.

But many things in the past have shown that Chang Haonan has a very keen sense in intelligence analysis.

He should not be treated as an ordinary non-military personnel.

"Mr. Fu, it's not just Ai Wuhan."

Chang Haonan adjusted his sitting posture and turned slightly sideways to face Fu Youquan:

"According to reports from our country's businessmen doing business in the Middle East, as early as last year, Americans began to grant official posts to some tribal leaders in the Mesopotamia and Mesopotamia. It would be okay if it was only once or twice, but it would be done on a large scale for a long time. , there is a high probability that you really want to change the world!”

This news was a complete surprise brought back by Lao Wu.

Even Chang Haonan had no idea before this.

Not to mention everyone else.

"But that side should have nothing to do with this attack..."

Fu Youquan's subconscious words were only halfway through when he was denied by himself:

"No, if the Americans want to go to war, it is normal to find no reason. These should be two independent incidents..."

At the beginning of the 21st century, China's intelligence system was basically at its lowest point in terms of information source construction, and it was difficult to even collect public information from abroad.

But as an older soldier who has experienced war, his ability to analyze and judge is still online.

Therefore, Fu Youquan quickly realized that yesterday's attack was an unexpected situation and was not part of the Americans' plan.

Even if there is no such emergency, the other side will choose the opportunity to attack the two river basins in order to re-establish sufficient military deterrence around the world.

After hesitating for a while, he turned to look at Mr. Zhang who was sitting in the front seat:

"Mr. Zhang, should we consider... putting the Jincheng Military Region on alert?"

"If two conflicts really start in the Middle East at the same time, it means that a considerable number of US military units will be deployed around our country, at least for a long time in the future."

"Although the terrain over there is not suitable for large-scale mechanized units to pass through, no matter what... we have to guard against it..."

The General Staff itself does not have the authority to mobilize troops. Major tasks such as moving to alert at the theater level must be reported to higher-level leaders through Mr. Zhang.

In fact, Chang Haonan was originally planning to directly propose his final plan after this topic was over.

But he was interrupted by Fu Youquan.

The content of the other party's conversation involved military command authority, so Chang Haonan immediately chose to shut up.

He still knows clearly what topics he can participate in and what topics he cannot participate in.

"There's no need to make such a big fuss."

Mr. Zhang waved his hand:

"However, I will report to the chief later to ask the border defense and special operations-related forces of the Jincheng Military Region to increase their alertness to prevent the chaos from having a direct impact on our country."

After briefly responding to Fu Youquan's suggestion, he turned his attention to Chang Haonan again:

"It seems that Xiao Chang still has something to say, please continue."

"good."

Chang Haonan nodded upon seeing this.

Now that the previous steps have been completed, there is no need to make any more detours:

"For the current Americans, their previous layout in the two river basins cannot be directly applied to Aiwuhan because they are separated by Persia. However, military operations against the latter are imminent, and the divisions are out Well-known, they are unlikely to pass up the opportunity."

"And if you want to project power to Aiwuhan in a short period of time, land and sea transportation are almost impossible. There are only air channels in two directions."

“One through us and the other through Central Asia?”

Although there was no map here, Qiao Chenqing, who was born in the Air Force, immediately realized the answer.

"To be precise, the Collective Security Treaty Organization."

Chang Haonan replied:

"The Russians will most likely give a favor and allow the US military to project troops through the airspace of the CSTO member states. After all, even if they don't allow it, the five Central Asian countries may not listen. On the contrary, it will affect the prestige of the CSTO big brother. ”

"For us, it is of course impossible to allow US military combat forces to set foot on the country, but if the other party is willing to accept some reasonable prices, then we can open several airports for logistics and civilian supplies that do not involve weapons and equipment. Transit…”

"etc……"

Mr. Zhang stretched out his hand and interrupted Chang Haonan's words. At the same time, his expression turned solemn:

"Whether this is feasible or not, we won't make a judgment yet."

"You just need to say what conditions you want to get from the Americans."

With these words, Chang Haonan was completely relieved.

In fact, he was not worried about whether his suggestion would be agreed to -

Judging from the situation in the previous life, China's bottom line is that it cannot open the Wakhan Corridor as a land passage.

But air transport was later liberalized.

Of course, on the surface, it is a commercial transportation route.

So, the key lies in that condition.

With such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, it would be a shame if it was just to earn some airport usage fees like in my previous life.

"I think we can cooperate with the Russians and use this opportunity to get the Americans to agree to restart the denuclearization negotiations between the two countries."

Chang Haonan sat up straight, leaning his upper body slightly forward, pressing on the table of the conference table:

“And let us get involved.”
