Supreme Golden Eyes - Chapter 589 Uproar

The fact that the U.S. supply-class fast combat support ship USS Rainier was attacked by unknown armed forces, caught fire, exploded and sank caused an uproar all over the world.Originally, NATO's air strikes on Yugoslavia were the focus of the world's attention, and the Americans were the center of attention. After the Rainier sank, the US military's fuel and ammunition failed, resulting in the intensity of its air strikes on Yugoslavia. A sharp drop, not a single bomb dropped in hours!

The Rainier sank at ten o'clock in the evening local time, while in the United States it was three or four o'clock in the afternoon on the 10th. This abnormal situation almost immediately attracted the attention of the outside world, and the keen sense of smell of the Western world media They are famous for their pervasive news network, and it didn't take long for them to get news from various channels.

That night, the TV station of CBS, a subsidiary of Viacom, the third largest media company in the United States, was the first to broadcast the major news that "the U.S. military suffered heavy losses due to an unknown armed attack"! (In the past few years, the Viacom Group has changed owners, and a new consortium, the Rock Fund Company, has exhausted various means to obtain an absolute controlling stake of 73.8%, and the Rock Fund Company is Ling Shaonan’s agent in the United States One of the companies. If I tell you that there is no shadow of Ling Shaonan behind the news, would you believe it?)

After CBS, other media groups were not to be outdone, and invited many military experts or retired generals to participate in TV interviews to analyze in detail the possible impact of this incident in various aspects.

From a large level, the impact of this incident on NATO's air strikes is still unclear. Some people think that the United States will increase the intensity of air strikes to boost the morale of the army and show that they will not be knocked down by this little trouble. Some people believe that the United States will gradually weaken or even stop its intervention in Yugoslav affairs under the strong pressure of public opinion, especially the families of American soldiers killed in the country.

But on one point their opinions are the same: the direct loss of the US military in this incident is really huge!The cost of the Rainier itself is as high as more than 3 million US dollars. The 2 tons of aviation kerosene and diesel oil on board, as well as the 1800 tons of air-to-surface missiles and precision-guided bombs are also worth hundreds of millions of dollars. The nearly [-] crew members and marines The pension is not a small amount, and the total sum will not be less than one billion US dollars!

And if other invisible losses are counted, for example, neighboring countries refused to let the US military use their bases because they were worried that the attack would be directed at them, causing the US military to have to withdraw the attack base and transport supplies from farther away. Moreover, in order to prevent this kind of incident from happening again, it is necessary to send additional escort warships to the supply ship, etc., and there will be many more troubles in the future.

Thanks to the publicity of the media, which made everyone in the world know, although the U.S. Navy has not investigated any clues, it had to hold an urgent press conference to explain the incident that night.At the press conference, the U.S. military spokesperson shamelessly played a trick: he first expressed his "regret" over the "mistaken bombing" of the Chinese embassy in Yugoslavia three days ago, and then immediately announced that the military The investigation into the sinking of the Rainier is underway, and it is declared that it will take the most severe revenge on the country or organization that caused the incident!

In this passage, although it is not stated explicitly, as long as anyone with a little sensitivity can hear it, the Americans linked the "Rainier attack" with the "mistaken bombing incident" three days ago. And it was determined that the Huaxia people did it, but because there is no evidence to support this assertion, they didn't say it directly!

As soon as this theory came out, there was an uproar in Western public opinion, and the "China Threat Theory" was turned up again. The argument advocating economic sanctions against China, and even direct military strikes appeared in various media, and it was very loud.

In this regard, the Huaxia Ministry of Foreign Affairs, with unprecedented efficiency, held a targeted press conference on the afternoon of the 11th, Beijing time a few hours later, to expound its own views. (I can’t help complaining that the level of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is far behind Premier Zhou, Marshal Chen Yi and others who were in charge of diplomacy when the People’s Republic of China was first founded. The foreign policy of those weak bones is to center on the interests of the United States and other countries. As for the interests of the country and the people of their own country, what has it to do with them?)

Of course, the tone at the press conference was still the same old one. It was nothing more than protesting against the misleading of the public by the U.S. government, which would have a negative impact on the diplomatic relations between China and the United States. The follow-up development of the incident is like this, this kind of non-nutritive cliché makes people's ears feel callused.

Americans naturally do not believe the rhetoric of the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs. In fact, Americans never fully trust anyone except themselves. The flattery of some bureaucrats has not played the role they thought it would have.

The crueler fact is that the U.S. government showed no interest in the press conference of the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs. They only thought that those people were farting, and they were obsessed with finding out that the attack on the Rainier was planned and carried out by the Chinese military. He tried to use this as a basis to blackmail, not only to make up for losses, but also to divert the attention of the domestic people away from himself, and further use the "China Threat Theory" as an excuse to urge Congress to pass a proposal to increase the military budget.

But unfortunately, the Americans are destined to be busy. After only a few hours, a piece of news turned all their plans into water, and slapped the U.S. government and military in the face. , They were so beaten that they stared at gold stars, and they almost suffocated to death!

"Haha! Mr. Ling, what a great skill. If you don't make a move, it will be nothing. If you make a move, it will be a shock!" After receiving the news that the USS Rainier supply ship was bombed and sunk, Lin Mingyuan immediately thought of Ling Shaonan. It's nothing hard to guess, Ling Shaonan only revealed it to him a few days ago.So, despite the fact that Moscow time was only after five o'clock in the morning, Lin Mingyuan made a phone call directly, and burst out laughing heartily.

"Hehe." With a chuckle, Ling Shaonan didn't seem to care too much: "It's just a small trick, it can't get on the stage, let alone a shocking world, at most it's just a little lesson for the arrogant Yankee, and a little interest back That's all."

"President Ling is too modest! If this is just a small trick, then I, the deputy chief of staff, would have no face to go out to meet people. Tsk tsk! The Americans have been bombing Yugoslavia for more than a month, because they did not invest in ground troops. Before that, only a few pilots were killed. Boss Ling is amazing, and the number of casualties of the US military has increased by a hundred times! You don’t know, after confirming this news, the boys under me are going crazy with joy. They are celebrating there! They don’t know you, otherwise, how many people would regard you as an idol! And don’t mention them, even I adore you now!”

The Huaxia embassy in South Africa was just bombed a few days ago. As the most passionate group of people in China, it is reasonable for the elites of the General Staff to be filled with righteous indignation, otherwise it would be too bloodless. Retribution, when hundreds of people were killed or injured, the comfort in my heart is self-evident.As for Lin Mingyuan's admiration for Ling Shaonan, it was purely polite. Ling Shaonan would not be so naive as to take it as the truth, thinking that he really had a fan of the general.

"But having said that, Boss Ling's subordinates are really talented and strong! From planning to implementation, it took only two days to complete such a perfect assault operation. I'm not being modest, but the gang of boys under me are really good! Impossible to do that!"

As soon as the topic changed, Lin Mingyuan brought the topic to Chen Xie and the others.Of course, this is not entirely flattery, the special team under him may not be able to do as well as Chen Xie and the others.This is not just a matter of strength. There are more than 30 master-level warriors belonging to the military. In terms of strength alone, they are more than a step stronger than Chen Xie and the others. More importantly, it is a matter of strategic thinking. Lin Mingyuan and the others never thought of it. This is the way to retaliate against the Americans.

"General Lin is absurd! The three special brigades of Changfeng, Lijian, and Fang are the real masters like a cloud. The boys under me are still far behind, and they have to practice hard for a few years." Although it was not stated clearly , but Lin Mingyuan's words clearly showed that he was interested in Chen Xie and the others. Ling Shaonan was unwilling to hand over all his trump cards, and directly blocked what he was about to say next: I even admit that I am not as good as you. Don't you have the cheek to make excessive demands?

Sure enough, on the other end of the phone, Lin Mingyuan was choked by Ling Shaonan. He really planned to take advantage of the situation and propose to let his special forces team cooperate with Ling Shaonan's people, and borrow their activity bases in Eastern Europe (Lin Mingyuan is in charge of special operations, of course guessing Those who got Ling Shaonan had a foundation in Eastern Europe, at least in the Yugoslavia area, while the Military Intelligence Bureau's focus was on the surrounding areas of China, North America, and Western Europe. If they got Ling Shaonan's support, their intelligence would be greatly supplemented. In fact, they I guessed right, Franio is a Serbian, and there are only two Chinese in Chen Xie’s group, and the others are all white in Eastern Europe, so they can easily integrate into the local area), of course, according to Lin Mingyuan’s deepest heart It would be even better if such a force could be incorporated!

Unexpectedly, Ling Shaonan could easily see through his plan, making his plan aborted.It feels really uncomfortable to be blocked before such words are spoken!
