Spark

The sea situation calmed down at an extremely strange pace, which Chen Nian never expected.

——

No one in this world, even a traveler like him who knows everything about historical events, would have guessed, let alone guessed, that the opponent didn't have a way to the dark, but retreated in spite of the difficulties.

Of course, the retreat is temporary.

At least, it is impossible for us to relax our vigilance because of their temporary weakness.

Fleet mobilization is still carried out according to the established strategy, and the shipyard and various military factories are also working non-stop, intending to use the shortest time to make up for the so-called "quantity" gap as much as possible.

Moreover, discussions on the follow-up strategy have already begun

office.

The leader speaks.

".On the whole, this time we were able to force the opponent back. It is a strategic victory, and it is a technological victory."

"Various military industrial enterprises, various scientific research units, especially the Xinghuo team, played a major role in the confrontation during this period."

"All kinds of new equipment and new weapons, including Wuzhen-9, YJ-21H, 055, and 001, have provided us with the necessary conditions for victory."

"Therefore, the recognition of these scientific researchers must not be discounted."

"After discussions among various parties, the current commendation plan has also reached a consensus internally, so I won't go into details."

"Currently, the most urgent task of each department is to implement our commendation and give our team another sigh of relief."

"I won't go into details about the whole task, Lao Xu, you can arrange it."

"clear."

The middle-aged man sitting on the right nodded slightly, and wrote something down in his notebook.

"How long will it take to finish?"

"About two weeks. If there is a need for adjustment in the future, I will submit the application again."

"Okay, it's up to you. This work is very important, so don't make any mistakes."

What the old man meant by "going wrong" is very simple, that is, don't cause dissatisfaction in the various departments below because of the distribution of awards and commendations.

After all, we are now in a critical period of strategic sprint, and it is very likely that a very small "fluctuation of people's hearts" will have a major impact on the implementation of the overall plan.

At that time, if the final result is unsatisfactory, it will be worth the loss.

But of course, as an experienced old comrade, it is impossible for Lao Xu to make such a mistake.

His idea is very simple, it is difficult to level a bowl of water, so it is better to be simple and rude, just pour a few more bowls of water.

Anyway, the result of this battle is big enough, and it is to establish a new deterrence and open the door to the future.

What's wrong with giving out more prizes?

If possible, I would like to take the opportunity to make a big push and directly bring the social status of scientific researchers to the core agenda for discussion.

Thinking of this, he opened his mouth and replied:

"Leader, don't worry, I know this very well."

"Although the overall finances are tight this year, the scale of growth is still very fast. There is no pressure to spare some budget to do this."

Hearing this, the old man immediately understood what he meant.

"That's good, you take care of it."

After a short pause, he continued to add:

"For the commendation of the organization, we just follow the rules and regulations."

"But for Chen Nian, everyone should put more thought into it."

"Although this matter will not be discussed on the work agenda, everyone knows its importance."

"It's better to actively offer suggestions and find ways to make him remember us and remember our kindness."

Everyone in the conference room nodded in unison. Seeing this scene, Old Xu couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

What kind of honor is this?

Although there was no public recognition, nor any titles, but in this small room, everyone was given the same task because of him.

Throughout the history of this country, there are really not many people who have won such honors.

This kind of "comprehensive attention", Chen Nian is the first person who pioneered the world.

After talking about the topic of commendation, the old man took off his glasses, and then said:

"The next topic we're going to talk about is talking behind closed doors."

"I don't need to introduce too much, everyone knows the current situation."

"There are signs of division within NATO, and the United States is already in an extremely isolated position regarding the maritime situation."

"We can assert that if the US continues to stir up trouble, Britain, France and Germany will definitely stand up to oppose it first."

"At the same time, they have actually made a retreat, and the strategic alliance with the South Island is disintegrating."

"That said, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity presented itself in front of us."

"Our question is, should we take advantage of this opportunity to achieve the ultimate strategic goal in one go?"

Hearing the old man's question, everyone in the meeting room fell silent.

Even if the tone was set at the beginning, indicating that the discussion is now behind closed doors, this question is still difficult to answer.

Did you say fight?

It is easy to win, but no one can predict where NATO's bottom line will be.

It is very likely that after noticing the changes in the situation, several countries that were still tough and opposed will soon unite again.

At the same time, it is easy to fight the country, but difficult to defend the country. What if the war of annihilation develops into a protracted war?

But if you say not to fight, such a good opportunity is in front of you, and it would be a pity not to seize it.

If you miss it, it will definitely not be easy to find another window of the same kind in the future.

The old man looked around, waiting for everyone's answer.

But after a long time, Old Xu raised his hand first.

"I will speak on behalf of everyone on this issue. In fact, I know that everyone has the same idea."

"Fight, I'm afraid there will be problems later. If I don't fight, I'm afraid I won't have another chance."

"But I want to explain one thing, how did we create this opportunity?"

"Is it a coincidence? Is it luck?"

"no!"

"It's the three major fleets, the Second Artillery, our navy, land and air forces, which were developed bit by bit under the premise of highly technological development."

"So, the opening of the window is inevitable."

"And, I can predict that this window will never close."

"Why? Let's think about this question."

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the conference room was a little stunned.

Old Xu didn't stop, but continued talking.

"The reason is simple: because the development of technology does not stop, but accelerates."

"Let me put it more bluntly."

"As long as Chen Nian is still alive and standing by our side, this window will always be open."

"My suggestion is that we don't need to take risks."

"Going to fight now, going to recycle, it is a false name, and it is our development and layout that are interrupted."

"The yield is too low to be necessary."

"What's the rush? With Chen Nian as the secret weapon, are we still a little while away?"

Meanwhile, the other side.

Lu Yuan, who had been imprisoned for more than three months, finally ushered in the day of release. It is undeniable that he was excited at this time, but this excitement was not only because he was about to return to the familiar island, but because He knew that releasing himself was an important signal:

A sign of a fundamental reversal of the situation.

The mainland no longer needs its own crew as a bargaining chip to keep the situation under control. They already have everything in their hands.

——

Is this good news?

Maybe, for some people, definitely not.

Not even for Lu Yuan who was a few months ago.

But now, after personal experience and learning, his thoughts have undergone subtle changes.

Of course, he still doesn't want violent conflicts to break out between the two parties, and he still doesn't want things to go to the last step.

After all, he also has special affection for his compatriots there.

This feeling is not so easily wiped out.

But on the other hand, it is undeniable that he wants the mainland to prevail.

Not because he has completely fallen to the mainland psychologically, but because he realized one thing:

Rather than being beaten to the bone by the old beauty, it is better to let the mainland come to scrape the bone to cure the poison.

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan could not help but sigh.

Wu Hai, the staff member who was standing beside him and who had been in charge of him, noticed his expression, and asked with a slightly teasing tone:

"Why, judging by your expression, you still don't want to leave?"

Lu Yuan didn't shy away from it, but answered bluntly:

"I really don't want to leave, but I can't if I don't, and you won't issue me a visa."

"I still want to go to Guizhou to see how your villages are connected to roads. When I go back, I might not be able to come back again."

In fact, although the exchanges between the two sides of the strait are not frequent at this time, there are basically channels.

Some ordinary people can also obtain the so-called "family visit visa" after applying.

But Lu Yuan's identity is too special, and he has also participated in key events, not to mention whether the mainland will grant a visa, the South Island will definitely not let him go.

If you really want to come again, I'm afraid you really have to wait until "that moment".

For this point, Wu Hai is naturally well aware.

So he intentionally asked:

"Then do you want to come quickly, or don't you want to come?"

After hesitating for a few seconds, Lu Yuan replied:

"I want to come quickly."

"Became a sect?"

Hearing this, Lu Yuan shook his head firmly.

"It's not about unification. It should be said. I'm a developmentist, a profit-seeker."

The words were cryptic, but they also contained a special sense of humor. Wu Hai laughed and replied:

"Then you've made some progress, stop talking nonsense with you, go on board, you should go too."

Lu Yuan nodded, and asked the last sentence:

"Are you going to do it?"

Wu Hai did not answer.

Therefore, Lu Yuan no longer hesitated, and stepped onto the gangway that had been prepared long ago.

After walking onto the deck, he subconsciously looked back.

In his line of sight, there are high-rise buildings full of vitality, and farther to the left is a sea-crossing bridge under construction.

This continent is awakening at an astonishing and incredible speed, and I am one of the witnesses of this great era.

The security ship, which has been carefully maintained, set sail smoothly. Under the escort of a Huaxia Coast Guard ship, the security ship slowly sailed away from the coastline.

Lu Yuan still stood on the deck, as if he wanted to keep the shadow of this continent in his heart.

However, just after the security boat turned out of the port, he suddenly saw a scene that he probably shouldn't have seen:

In the distant military port, several warships are leaving the port.

He knew the models of those warships, but even just by their size, their combat effectiveness could be judged.

Lu Yuan suddenly felt a cold war in his heart. He hurried into the captain's room and asked the captain who was also looking at the warship in the distance:

"What's the situation in the mainland? Will there be any accidents?"

"There are so many who are in the same direction as us? What are we going to do?"

The captain frowned and shook his head silently.

After half a minute, he opened his mouth and said:

"Ah Yuan, I'm not as familiar with them as you are. How can I know things that you don't even know?"

"However, Lao Mei has retired, what do you think they are going to do?"

"They don't avoid us any more—or, did they do it on purpose for us to see?"

"I have no idea."

Lu Yuan shook his head, his heart beating faster and faster.

No way?

Could it be that after they let go of their chips, they still want to get more chips?

Or, do they want to take this opportunity to solve the problem at once?

This is definitely not what I want to see

But so what?

The opponent's strategy will not change because of anyone's wishes, as long as they decide to do something, they will definitely do it.

Those behemoths slowly disappeared from Lu Yuan's sight, and he gave up his worrying thoughts.

never mind.

This is not something you should worry about.

Ah Wan and Abba are still waiting for me at home, maybe after going back, the best choice is to find an air-raid shelter to hide as soon as possible

With such uneasy worries, Lu Yuan returned home smoothly and met his family members smoothly.

The boats seem to have disappeared - was it just a coincidence, just a misunderstanding?

Lu Yuan gradually felt relieved, but on this night, at the gathering dinner for him, the family of three saw an understatement, but it was like a thunderbolt on the TV at the same time:

...

A wry smile appeared on Lu Yuan's face.

It was not a misunderstanding.
