Rebirth of the 1980s: The Military Industry Empire

Wang Chongming became excited.

Of course, he knew why he had come to the Military Academy. On the surface, it looked like he had returned to the capital and didn't have to travel back and forth, but in reality, he had been exiled here!

His military power was gone, and many people no longer respected him. He had been feeling very frustrated, and now he finally had an opportunity!

As long as he could stand out in this war game, he would regain the attention of his superiors. Even if he couldn't lead troops in battle in the future, he could still become a staff-type talent, or even get to work as a staff officer for his old leader. Need I even mention the benefits?

A loss may turn out to be a blessing in disguise. Perhaps he could use this opportunity to advance further? When the time comes, with the favor of his old leader, dealing with Qin Yang would be as simple as crushing an ant, right?

So, without even having breakfast, he happily followed the person who had come to call him to the large lecture hall.

The Military Academy mainly trains military commanders. At this time, the large lecture hall was full of people. Among them were not only college students who had come through the college entrance examination, but also some military leaders who had come for retraining. So there were both old and young, and they were all discussing animatedly below.

The dean sat above, looking at the people below. When his gaze turned to the door, he happened to see Wang Chongming coming in, and immediately waved his hand: "Old Wang, come, sit here!"

Wang Chongming excitedly sat to the left of the dean.

"Comrades, we all know that a war has just broken out in the South Atlantic. This is the first war of the 1980s, and it is mainly a naval battle, which can greatly broaden our horizons. The higher authorities have instructed us to immediately conduct a war game to see how this war will proceed. Now, let's invite Researcher Wang to tell us his views."

"Comrades, we all know that war on the surface is a contest of soldiers, but in reality, it is a contest of comprehensive strength such as population, resources, and economy." During this period, Wang Chongming had also learned a lot of knowledge here, and he could talk about these theories in a systematic way.

"Now, let's compare from all aspects and look at this issue objectively." Wang Chongming said: "From an economic point of view, Argentina has developed rapidly in recent years, but it still cannot be compared with the old empire... From a resource point of view, although Britain has lost many colonies, it is still deeply rooted and still has a very solid foundation... From a population point of view, Britain also has an advantage."

Wang Chongming's spittle flew everywhere as he spoke for more than twenty minutes.

"Researcher Wang, according to your analysis, Britain is sure to win?" the dean asked.

"Of course not. Because the fundamental thing that determines the outcome of a war is not one or two advanced weapons, nor is it the strength of a great power. What determines the outcome of a war is people! Our ancestors said that those who have the Tao will receive more support, while those who have lost the Tao will receive little support. Justice will prevail!" Wang Chongming became excited.

Wasn't this obvious? Britain was no longer the empire on which the sun never sets before World War II. Did Britain still have a global formation? The navy didn't even have an aircraft carrier, and only a few helicopter carriers were left to show off. Britain simply didn't dare to launch this war!

Therefore, Britain would definitely obediently admit defeat, how dare they send troops.

First praise Britain, and then say that it doesn't dare to fight, and if it does fight, it will definitely lose. This will leave a deep impression on everyone, enough to attract attention, and will also make everyone admire his talent and strategic vision!

"The Falkland Islands originally belonged to Argentina. The British only took possession of them because they discovered them first during the Age of Discovery. This is purely robber logic. After all, Argentinians have lived there for generations and can see the Falkland Islands every day. The Age of Discovery was an era of rampant pirates. The British now look very civilized, but in fact they are all descendants of pirates!" Wang Chongming continued: "After the end of World War II, the British withdrew troops from various colonies, but they refused to give up the Falkland Islands, which eventually led to Argentina using force to recover the Falkland Islands. This is a historical inevitability! Now, Argentina's momentum is like a rainbow. If the British dare to send troops over, they will definitely be hit with a devastating blow. Therefore, I dare to assert that the British simply do not dare to send troops. Although this war has only just begun, it is already over!"

This was Wang Chongming's point of view: This war was nothing to see, because it was already over! Although Qin Yang's prediction of the beginning was surprising, he was the one who predicted the end, and he also had a very strategic vision!

"The British don't dare to send troops?" Someone below exclaimed.

"That's right, they don't dare to send troops. They absolutely cannot win this war on their own. They have to rely on the Western world led by the United States, but we know that Argentina also has a very good relationship with the West. Not long ago, Galtieri also visited the United States, and he must have received the affirmation of the United States, otherwise how would he dare to launch this war? If the British really dare to send troops on a long expedition, then what awaits them will be a head-on blow! Now, because of the recovery of the Falkland Islands, the entire Argentine people are boiling. I dare say that as long as the British dare to go there, every Argentine will take up arms and fight them to the end!"

Justice will prevail, people's war. These statements are very in line with the mainstream views at this stage, so Wang Chongming's words quickly won rounds of warm applause.

Wang Chongming felt that his whole person was about to float up, and his heart was greatly satisfied. Just as he was about to sit down contentedly, he unexpectedly saw someone walking in from the door, and his face was immediately filled with doubt:

Qin Yang? Why is he here?

"Sorry, it seems I'm late. I'm very sorry. The army has been pestering me." Qin Yang said to everyone: "However, seeing everyone discussing so lively, I won't say anything. I'll stay below as an audience."

"General Qin, please come up quickly!" The dean stood up, almost jogging over, and enthusiastically took Qin Yang's hand: "You are the one who predicted this war, and the time was accurate to the minute. This is simply a miracle! Of course, we have to listen to your views on this war!"

The dean invited him? Wang Chongming's face drooped. Dean, we are our own people, how can you trust an outsider so much? Is this appropriate?

"That's right, General Qin, how will this war proceed? Please give us a war game."

"General Qin, if you don't say something shocking this time, don't even think about leaving!"

"Oh, then I'll have to show off. As the saying goes, a starving camel is bigger than a horse. Although Britain has declined, its foundation is still there, and it cannot be compared with those third-rate countries." As Qin Yang spoke, he came to the rostrum and looked at the already full seats above.

"Old Wang, please go down and give your seat to General Qin." The dean said.

Wang Chongming's face turned black. He slowly stood up, and then suddenly thought of something: "General Qin, are you saying that the British will win this war? Wait, are you saying that the British will send troops?"

"Yes, they will definitely send troops."

"With their little navy, they want to cross the entire Atlantic Ocean to conquer Argentina? Aren't they afraid of being completely annihilated?"

"That's right, they have declined, but it's more than enough to beat Argentina," Qin Yang said.

"More than enough? General Qin, what are you joking about!" Wang Chongming raised his voice a few notches: "Fighting a war is about the right time, the right place, and the right people. The British don't have any of these. What are they relying on to win?"

"Relying on the fact that they used to be the empire on which the sun never sets. What, you don't believe it? Want to bet?"
