Chapter 927 Risk of Strategic Exposure
'Strategic-level aerial reconnaissance missions covering the entire country and extending to neighboring countries...'
As the theater air force commander Zhou Tianyi finished speaking, the entire conference room fell silent. The theater standing committee members, including Gu Chengyuan, couldn't help but frown subconsciously.
The reason why the scene showed such a solemn atmosphere was not because of the plan itself, but because of the huge impact that would be produced after the plan was implemented...
You know, there is a saying that goes, 'When you stare into the abyss, the abyss also stares into you'...
Once the theater launches a strategic reconnaissance operation covering the entire country and extending to neighboring countries, it is not certain whether the surrounding small countries will discover it, but the surrounding countries will definitely discover it...
For a world power like Zhou Bang, the level of air defense is no joke.
Normally, due to distance and focus issues, even if the fighter jets from the Zhongzhou theater are detected by the enemy's strategic radar, they will most likely be treated as some kind of clutter and ignored.
But if it flies overhead, it will be very close to your head and it is impossible not to be discovered, especially when performing a reconnaissance mission.
Therefore, once this reconnaissance plan is implemented, it is equivalent to Zhongzhou War Zone being exposed to all the major surviving forces in the country while conducting reconnaissance across the country...
There is no consolation for the civilian forces. They just know it has been discovered, and no matter what their attitude is, it will not affect the Zhongzhou war zone.
What really made the standing committee members of the war zone on the scene hesitate was actually the official power, or to be more specific, the central court located in Shenjing!
Different from the conventional weapons in the hands of the major war zones, the central government holds the magical weapons that can protect or destroy a country.
To use a playing card as an analogy: in the Zhou Dynasty, when it came to weapons distribution, the central government held all the bombs, including the king bomb, and all the other cards were distributed to the local troops.
In the end times, the central imperial court seemed to have lost contact with most regions and seemed to have suffered a great weakening in military power, but what was the reality?
Its deterrent power is not lower than before the end of the world, and is even higher. The reason is that it has been freed from the supervision and restraint of public opinion. It is just like how ordinary survivors once viewed the Zhongzhou war zone: a tiger out of the cage!
With all the "bombs" in hand, and no need to consider public opinion, will there still be so many concerns about using the "bombs"?
Just like comparing modern wars with ancient wars, why is the probability of massacres in modern wars reduced to a negligible level? Is it because modern times are more civilized? Of course not!
The main reason is that there are too many modern means of communication. Once many bad but cost-effective things are done, there is no way to completely block the news. Once they are mastered by hostile forces or countries and used as an excuse to launch sanctions and attacks, the losses caused are often not worth the gains.
However, in the end times, when information is almost blocked, the above concerns do not exist at all. The gathering places in various places are equivalent to information islands. At this time, if a saturation nuclear bomb is launched, people next door would think it was an earthquake if they felt it.
Even if there really is a "nuclear explosion immortal" who survived, it is highly likely that he would not even know who threw it, so there would be no so-called negative impact...
At that time, some short video clips will even play out: slapping someone hard while they are sleeping, then hugging them and patting and coaxing them to comfort them: "Oh~ you are having a nightmare, don't be afraid~"
So in this situation, the Zhongzhou war zone has to prepare for the worst. What if there is a character like the bald man in the central court?
Believing in "pacifying the country before fighting foreign enemies", he suddenly launched a saturation nuclear explosion on the Zhongzhou war zone? ?
Who can withstand this? !
This is not even a low probability event, but a high possibility!
What kind of immortal figure could stand out from the nearly 30 billion people in the Zhou Dynasty, enter the cabinet and rule the world?
In a political career of at least 40 to 50 years, from the bottom up, how many jobs must one go through? How many problems must one face? And to make the crucial leap, one must go through at least two provinces in government and make achievements.
You have to know that any province of the Zhou Dynasty, if placed in Europe in terms of population and area, would already be considered a powerful country.
From this we can see how inhuman the top politicians of the Zhou State are!
Therefore, for Gu Chengyuan and other leaders of the Central Plains War Zone, facing the Central Court is no less than facing the 'unknown' abyss...
Because it is impossible to guess what the thinking logic of Zhou Bang and other top political figures is, and what choices they will make...
It is like the layout in Africa, the Middle East, and all kinds of black technology blowouts. If you trace the origins carefully, you will find that these started decades ago when the entire Zhou Dynasty was still poor, and the top level had already withstood tremendous domestic and international pressure and started to make moves.
The so-called overall situation is determined by the scenery that can be seen at the moment. People on the first floor can only see the lawn, people on the second floor can only see the first floor and the lawn, and people on the third floor can only see the second floor, the first floor and the lawn...
Therefore, under such circumstances, Gu Chengyuan and the Standing Committee members of the Zhongzhou War Zone had to assume the worst possible scenario.
The most important thing to avoid in everything is "I think" or "I feel", especially when it comes to issues at the national level. Any assumption may lead to devastating consequences.
I think the overall situation may be unity and fighting against the end of the world, and the overall situation at the core level of the Zhou State may be that there is a solution to the end of the world, and the overall situation is to wipe out the variable of the Zhongzhou War Zone...
...
Considering all the above, the entire conference room fell into silence for a long time...
It is no exaggeration to say that this is a critical decision involving the survival of the Zhongzhou War Zone. No one dares to speak lightly, not even Gu Chengyuan...
I can only say that the development of weapons is too amazing. It has actually developed a sense of equality for all. The Zhongzhou war zone cannot withstand the saturation attack of nuclear bombs. Even the superpower America across the ocean will have to kneel down...
...
Finally, after nearly ten minutes of solemn silence, the theater chief of staff Wu Bin slowly stood up. He glanced at the entire audience, and spoke in a steady and cautious tone:
"Report to the chief, fellow comrades. After preliminary research on the operational plan submitted by Air Force Commander Zhou, I believe that there are several major strategic concerns, which need to be carefully considered by the chief and the comrades present."
“Specific questions are as follows:”
"First, regarding mission cost-effectiveness (practicality). With the current actual control range and projection capability of our theater, its strategic radiation radius mainly covers the adjacent provinces."
"At this time, if we invest resources to carry out deep strategic reconnaissance covering the whole country and even extending to neighboring countries, will the intelligence benefits match the resource consumption? Is there a risk of misallocation of strategic resources?"
"Second, regarding the risk of strategic exposure (security). All of you here are well aware of the modern military situational awareness capabilities. Such large-scale, high-frequency, wide-area aerial reconnaissance operations, their strategic intentions and platform trajectories are easily detected, identified, and tracked by multiple parties."
"While achieving unknown effects, the concealment of our theater's core command system, important base facilities and strategic deployment will inevitably be seriously threatened. How should we evaluate and respond to the deterioration of the strategic security situation caused by this?"
"The above two points are the core concerns I raised as the theater's chief of staff based on the current enemy and our own situation and the overall security interests of the theater. My words may be blunt, but I am only fulfilling my staff duties and have no intention of disrespect. Over."
After saying that, Wu Bin nodded slightly to Gu Chengyuan and the standing committee members of the theater who were present, and especially gave an apologetic look to Air Force Commander Zhou Tianyi.
Wu Bin was promoted by Gu Chengyuan, so he was considered an outsider among the war zone standing committee members. Although he was not afraid of offending anyone, he did not want to offend anyone casually.
Isn't work all about cooperation? Why create conflicts when they can be resolved with a statement?
What's more, his words were indeed a bit embarrassing. After all, he pointed out the huge strategic risks that could threaten the theater command center.
