Chapter 1680: Even if They Are Far Away, They Must Be Punished

Chapter 1680: Even if they are far away, they must be punished

In the afternoon, the sun was so hot that it could kill people.

In a simple bamboo shed near the beach, Zhao Jianhui stared at the blue sea and blue sky in front of him for a long time without saying a word. The middle-aged fat man sitting next to him was Xiao Changrong, the commander of the Nanyue Military Region, who was wearing casual clothes.

In recent years, the vast seas of China have not been very peaceful. From north to south, there are always some people who are keen to jump out and make some trouble. And behind all this, there is a visible black hand blatantly manipulating behind the scenes, secretly wooing some countries around China, trying to form a "soft encirclement" that can at least suppress China, if not contain it, to stop China's thriving development momentum.

Especially in the Wanlishitang Sea area, from inciting neighboring small countries to compete with China for island sovereignty, to sending survey ships, survey ships, and reconnaissance aircraft to actively harass, test and observe the response of my country's coastal defense; interfering with shore-to-ship and submarine communications, etc.; conducting "battlefield survey preparations" under the cover of these tricks, so as to make these actions legal and circumvent the authorization and licensing issues; monitoring the movements of my country's nuclear submarines in and out of the base, and then analyzing their possible target settings.

No country will sit idly by and watch these provocative actions of potential opponents without responding. This has gone beyond the scope of "passive intelligence collection" that is usually acceptable. In the past few years, China was restricted by the combat routes of ships and aircraft. Whenever this happened, it could only express opposition through statements, condemnations, and other verbal battles issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

But in recent years, with the strengthening of the country's military strength, these intrusive and suspicious behaviors have been regarded as the concrete manifestation of "threatening to use force."

However, in such a large sea area, others are used to coming here, and you are not used to saying that you don't let them come to stroll around for a while. Therefore, in response to counter-attacks and counter-counter-attacks, forced intrusions and expulsions, China launched a confrontation with these countries with close interests in the sea area. Sansha City, Qionghai Province was established before the New Year. Marine surveillance ships and fishery administration ships frequently went out to sea for routine patrols, and the naval fleet also held many deterrent military exercises.

However, these measures can only make some countries temporarily restrain themselves on the surface, but cannot eliminate the wolfish ambitions of those countries to occupy islands and seek benefits.

The maritime accident near Xisha in early March is the most powerful evidence that a certain country is still thief.

Wanghai Township, Shanxi County is located on the southernmost and most coastal coast of Zhuzhou City. The people living here have made a living by fishing for generations. In recent years, in order to make money to support their families, fishermen have begun to quietly push their fishing and hunting range to farther offshore. This is an act that violates the coastal defense regulations, because once your ship is out of the sea area that the army can control, it may suffer some accidents, but it cannot be protected as it should be.

This is determined by the military strength of the Chinese Navy and Air Force, and it is not human power.

Even under such unsafe conditions, there are still a large number of fishermen who drive their boats to the open sea. It is not that the fishermen are not afraid of death, but that the fishery resources in the offshore are running out. They can't catch a few fish even if they work hard for a whole day. And a trip to the open sea can basically solve the family needs of fishermen for a month.

Huge profits are driving fishermen to take risks.

Although the news is strictly blocked, the villagers in the small fishing village not far to the left have unforgettable grief. Most of the fishing boats that were overturned by foreign warships in the last "shipwreck" incident were fishermen in this village. Dozens of families are broken and incomplete, and countless old people, women and children have cried their tears dry. The flesh and blood bodies and the fragmented wreckage of the fishing boats hit by modern weapons cannot float back. The cries and shouts of their relatives can never call back their lonely and crying souls scattered in the blue sea.

After the incident, Zhao Jianhui and Xiao Changrong came secretly to comfort them. Seeing those desperate eyes, their hearts seemed to be torn apart.

So, there was a report from the South Guangdong Military Region requesting a "military exercise", and Zhao Jianhui had a long talk with General Secretary Meng and Premier Xu in Zhongnanhai.

Now, the bamboo building where the two people were drinking tea was less than 200 meters away from the fishing village. However, neither Xiao Changrong nor Zhao Jianhui had the courage to suggest walking in the village again. On the beach under the sun, a dozen men in plain clothes stood there like javelins, staring firmly at the distant edge of the sea and sky. They were waiting for the call of the two people sitting in the bamboo building at any time, and there was an unstoppable surge in their hearts.

Among these people, there were people brought by Xiao Changrong and people brought by Zhao Jianhui. Tu Xiong and Li Changfa stood in the front. They have been preparing for the moment they are looking forward to for a long time...

Slowly retracting his gaze, Xiao Changrong sighed, his face solemn: "Have you thought it through? Without the support of the navy, how confident are you?"

"... Commander Xiao, those fishermen are also the people of my Nanyue Province. There are hundreds of lives. No matter what, I have to get back this blood debt for the people..." Zhao Jianhui looked at Xiao Changrong and said in a heavy tone.

"But..." Xiao Changrong slapped his thigh, stood up angrily, pointed to the boiling sea water not far away and said: "As a soldier, I must obey the highest interests of the country. It's a pity that I have a large number of troops but cannot wield the sword to kill the enemy... This is a shame for me, Xiao Changrong, and it is also a shame for our entire country..."

"Commander Xiao, there will be a day." Zhao Jianhui lowered his head. When he said this, he felt extremely sad. The current international situation is complex, and the country's military strength is still not at the level where "anyone who offends our big Han will be punished no matter how far away" is. It really makes people wonder what to do?

Thousands of years ago, my ancestors made this strongest voice. At that time, no one dared to compete with the strength of the Chinese nation. It is a pity that in the past one or two hundred years, this huge nation has been burdened with heavy disasters and can no longer run away. It has been left far behind by others.

A great man once said that if you fall behind, you will be beaten. This is a truth that applies to everyone.

Therefore, the Chinese nation has awakened. After standing up in 1949, after more than 20 years of faltering, it began to catch up after the 1980s, and finally climbed to the prominent position of the world's second largest economy in one fell swoop the year before last.

But even so, there is still a big gap between the current China and those developed Western countries. Especially in the military aspect, we are still lagging behind in many places. Without strong military support, the Huaxia Kingdom, which has a large amount of money in its pocket, is even more fat in the eyes of the great powers. Everyone's eyes are red and they can't wait to be defeated. Pounce on it and take a bite.

Hungry wolves can never be fed enough. In order to seek opportunities for peaceful development, we have made many compromises, but still received hostility. This world is inherently dominated by the weak. If you want to win the respect and service of others, you must have the ability to win the respect and service of others.

Even if the Chinese nation has always been suffering from the poison of Confucius, and it pays attention to gentleness, humility, benevolence, justice, etiquette, wisdom and trust, and pays attention to good intentions and good rewards, it must not forget that "sitting at home behind closed doors will cause misfortune to come from the sky." When you encounter evil neighbors who disturb you and prevent you from living a happy life, you must stand up and fight back.

Of course, now is not the time. But if you don’t work hard, you will never have this opportunity. Even someone as powerful as Zhao Jianhui would not be so arrogant as to think that he is invincible now. Therefore, even though he was feeling sad, he still said to Xiao Changrong: "There will be a day."

This is a man's oath, that is, to acknowledge the reality, and to work harder to make this day come sooner.

Xiao Changrong's Chinese-character face was as gloomy as water, his thick eyebrows were furrowed, and his eyes were wide-open. Even if he wasn't wearing a military uniform, he looked very powerful. At this moment, there was also a trace of sadness in his eyes, but as a senior commanding officer of the army, he would not reveal his emotions easily. He still had that livid face. He turned around and glanced at the small fishing village in the distance, feeling heartbroken. He gritted his teeth and said: "Secretary Zhao, I am a soldier, and it is the duty of a soldier to obey orders. If you have really made up your mind, although I cannot mobilize fleets and aircraft for support, I will go all out in other aspects... …”

"The support you have given me is already considerable." Zhao Jianhui pointed behind him and said no more. But Xiao Changrong understood the implication in his heart. With a dull smile, Zhao Jianhui continued: "I also know that we cannot send warships, planes, and missiles there, as that will only cause greater conflicts and disputes. But I have my own way, and the blood debt that should be recovered must be Want to get it back."

Xiao Changrong smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Are you really sure that you can use them to deal with the opponent's warships? I really can't believe it..." Zhao Jianhui clenched his fists tightly and nodded heavily: "Maybe. There are sacrifices, but this is what men of the Chinese nation should do. Even if our bones are broken, our spines cannot bend. "

Xiao Changrong nodded: "I understand. Then it's settled. Our army's exercise will start in the early morning three days later. You have to let them seize this opportunity..."

"Okay... I know that this is not a breath that a soldier can swallow, but you still need to swallow it. For a higher and more ambitious goal, this is your mission. Not causing international disputes is also what I have ordered from above. Guarantee. Just leave Commander Xiao and let's wait together for the good news they send back..." Zhao Jianhui reached out and patted Xiao Changrong's shoulder, then turned and walked out of the bamboo shed.

Looking at Zhao Jianhui's tall figure, Xiao Changrong's eyes couldn't help but become slightly moist. If he dares to do this, he can know with his toes just how much risk he has to bear.
