At the same time, the Pentagon in Magnesium was also immersed in a tense atmosphere.
The Minister of Defense of the Magnesium Country and a number of senior military officials gathered together to analyze the impact that Longxia Country's actions would have on the Magnesium Country through the military intelligence obtained by reconnaissance satellites.
Since the end of the military exercise in 1983, the once arrogant Chinese people have learned to be humble.
The most obvious example is the small country called Li Taowan. After a period of ups and downs, the entire country was almost razed to the ground. When they came to the big brother Magnesium for help afterwards, the Magnesians didn't even look at them.
It was also from that time that senior officials from Western countries discovered that the world pattern seemed to have become somewhat different after the disintegration of the Soviet Union.
In fact, the Magnesium people did not do nothing, but they learned to be smart. Unlike the stupid Parrot people, they did not put everything out in the open, making themselves the main target of the Longxia military exercise.
As the old saying goes, a dog that bites doesn't bark. Obviously, the Chinese are now the dog that doesn't bark.
But if you think it has become docile, you are wrong, because it has only learned to endure and wait for an opportunity. You never know when it will bite you hard when you are not paying attention.
"According to the high-definition images sent back by the satellite, we can clearly see that Longxia's current ships and carrier-based aircraft have made very obvious progress compared to more than ten years ago. When we were still equipped with third-generation aircraft, they already had fourth-generation aircraft that could beat us. Although our fourth-generation aircraft are now in service, we have no idea to what extent Longxia's fighter jets have developed!" said a four-star admiral of the Magnesium Navy.
"That's right. Actually, this is not what I am most worried about. I am really worried about two things. The first is the development level of their strategic nuclear submarines over the years. The second is how powerful the space weapons they are going to test in this exercise will be!" Another general from the Air Defense Command said with a frown.
"Gentlemen, after saying so much, what are your suggestions?" asked Mel Miller, the new Minister of Defense of Magnesium.
"Your Excellency, we cannot sit idly by. We must strengthen our military deployment in the Atlantic region, mobilize our personnel, and closely monitor their every move. We must have firsthand information before we can formulate our next plan."
"Wade is right. Although we weren't targeted by the Longxia people in this incident, analysis shows that they're also guarding against us in another island-grabbing and landing military exercise off the coast of Japan!"
As everyone finished speaking, Mel Miller pondered for a moment and then said, "Then we will implement it according to the plan we formulated earlier! Gentlemen, I hope you can understand that the Longxia Kingdom today is no longer the Longxia Kingdom that allowed us to bully them decades ago. It can even be said that they are now the most powerful opponent we have encountered since the founding of our country. Therefore, on this mission, I hope you can keep an eye on your men and not do anything to provoke them. We have only three main goals: first, to find out whether they really have the ability to block our navigation satellite signals and electromagnetic signals; second, to find out the true military strength of their navy, including the combat capabilities of their new generation of carrier-based aircraft; and third, to closely monitor the power of their space weapons! These will become important factors affecting the attitude we should adopt when dealing with the Longxia people in the future!"
Everyone looked at Mel Miller's solemn expression and immediately stood up and answered, "Yes, Minister!"
As the meeting ended, the Magnesium side also responded quickly. The ships originally carrying out missions in the Atlantic began to adjust their routes and quickly approached the waters where the Longxia aircraft carrier battle group passed.
In addition, a large number of reconnaissance aircraft began to take off in a planned manner from some of Magnesium's overseas military bases, further increasing patrol efforts in an attempt to grasp every movement of the Longxia fleet.
However, their cleverness lies in that they will not rashly make any provocative actions, such as flying around the Longxia aircraft carrier battle group during their daily patrols.
In response to this, the Longxia Kingdom did not make any response, but continued to head towards the exercise area according to the previously formulated strategy.
Apart from the United States and the United States, the other two countries in the five permanent members of the United Nations, China and Russia, have remained very quiet. On the surface, they do not seem to care much about Longxia's military exercise.
But this is just a superficial phenomenon, especially for the United States. You must know that the location of the English Channel is not only close to the United States, but also not far from the United States.
So how could they really be as quiet as they appeared on the surface? Although they did not immediately take large-scale military action like the Magnesium Country and the Parrot Country, they also secretly strengthened their reconnaissance capabilities just in case.
…
Just as Western countries heard the news and took action, Xu Zhengyang was standing on the deck of the electronic reconnaissance ship, looking at the rough sea, his heart filled with pride and a sense of mission.
He knew very well that this mission was of great significance to Longxia Country. It was not only a military exercise, but also an opportunity to demonstrate the country's strength to the world.
In the words of his father Xu Jianguo, if this exercise is done well, not only will Hong Kong Island be able to return smoothly, but all obstacles on the road to the return of Macau Island can also be cleared.
And when the two islands are successfully returned and those running dogs of the United States in East Asia have become obedient, our great motherland will have free hands to properly deal with that disobedient child. Whether to beat or scold him will all depend on us at that time.
Of course Xu Zhengyang knew who the disobedient child Xu Jianguo was referring to, so he had some expectations in his heart.
