Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 3021 The Alliance chickened out? That won't do!
Nine departments, research institutes.

Yang Xiaotao came here as soon as he hung up the phone.

Of course, he didn't know what Master Qian and Master Wang were talking about. Even if he did, he would give Master Qian a thumbs up and say, "Master is awesome!"

Future air combat will not only require missiles to fly faster, but also to be able to spot and track aircraft.

The aircraft will gradually return from its ultra-high speed state to its high-speed combat state, and the avionics system will be upgraded accordingly, with a comprehensive improvement in stealth capabilities.

As aircraft become increasingly powerful, missiles without strong anti-jamming capabilities and guidance functions will find it difficult to hit their targets simply by relying on ultra-high speed.

Therefore, improving the guidance and lock-on capabilities of missiles is the future direction of air combat.

Yang Xiaotao was well aware of this, so he did not develop an even faster aircraft than the White Horse fighter.

Moreover, in his view, the white horse and the blue horse had already reached their peak, and there might not be anything better after them.

That's why Yang Xiaotao chose turbofan engines, changed his career path, and strived to be the best in this new field.

But right now, we need to design the carrier-based aircraft first.

Thinking this, Yang Xiaotao picked up the phone and called Bosi.

Persia.

Mosidov was inspecting the newly established machine factory, accompanied by local officials and professionals sent by China.

Recently, the housekeeper has been coming back frequently to say that the workers in the factory are very motivated, and the products they produce are not only of good quality, but also completed very quickly.

This made Mosidov very pleased.

Only by developing industry can an industrialized nation break free from the shackles of an agricultural society and truly develop Persia.

But if we want to develop, we need to have more machines.

We must have machine tools to manufacture machines for all industries.

These things, in the past, could be purchased by the Persians from the League, from the United States, and from other countries.

Anyway, they have a lot of oil underground, which means they have a lot of wealth.

However, all that money can buy are machines, not technology.

Therefore, they can only pay someone to repair the machine after it breaks down.

So when they wanted to develop their own industrial facilities, they found that they had already embarked on a path set by someone else.

Now, he has decided to start over.

And so these factories came into being.

This place not only has machines, but also teaches them how to make machines.

The machine tools purchased from China have become a cradle for cultivating talent.

These changes have become increasingly apparent over time.

Seeing the roar of the machines, Mosidov smiled and couldn't help but encourage the factory director.

"The workers are very motivated, and you've done a great job in that regard."

Hearing Mosidov's praise, the factory manager nodded and smiled obsequiously. However, he did not take credit for it. Instead, he glanced at the Chinese technician beside him and said, "Sir, all of this is thanks to the help of the Chinese technicians. Without them, we could not have achieved what we have today."

Mosidov turned to look at the middle-aged man and said, "Engineer Wang, thank you for your efforts for us."

"I will definitely report to Mr. Yang Xiaotao."

Wang Gong's real name is Wang Yuan, and he is a level six fitter in the Ninth Department.

Wang Yuan volunteered to come to Persia to support the construction efforts.

First, he responded to the call of his superiors, believing that going out to work was also a form of revolutionary construction, and he felt that as long as it was beneficial to the revolution, it was worthwhile.

Secondly, they want to get better treatment. Their original salary for working outside will not stop and will still be sent to their family. However, the money they earn here will also belong to them.

Now, after working here for over a year, I've saved more money than I would have earned in my entire life.

However, instead of being happy, he was worried. Was taking so much money back a blessing or a curse?

Third, they want to go out and see the world.

Having never been abroad in my life, I naturally had to sign up now that I had the opportunity to go.

So I came here, and then I realized that this place is not as good as Beijing.

“Mr. Mercidov, this is our duty.”

"Of course, we would be happy if you could say something nice to Minister Yang."

Having spent a long time here, Wang Yuan has come to understand the personalities of the people here. He believes that being straightforward is better than being humbly indirect.

"Haha, okay, I will definitely tell you."

Mosidov said happily, and then continued walking forward.

"Our great leader told us that we can have enough to eat and wear by ourselves."

"This means that all achievements require us to create them with our own hands."

"Our lives will become better as long as we use our creativity."

Suddenly, a passionate voice came from the workshop. The words were spoken in Persian, which instantly stunned Mosidov.

He had also looked at the little red book when Ding Wei got it before.

It must be said that much of the content above is full of philosophical insights.

Just like the saying goes, study hard and make progress every day.

This statement best reflects the sentiment of Yang Xiaotao among the people he knows.

It is precisely because the other party studied hard and made progress every day that they have achieved what they have today.

Therefore, Mosidov generally agrees with the content on Xiaohongshu.

Just thinking about those believers in China gives me a headache.

These guys are completely unreasonable, like they've been hit on the head. They attribute everything to their beliefs; they're practically idiots.

But these kinds of stubborn people are the most extreme, and sometimes he has to make concessions and appease them.

So when Xiaohongshu sent it to him, he wasn't optimistic.

Even if the content here is excellent.

So he adopted a hands-off approach.

How far they can develop depends on Ding Wei and his team's abilities.

I never expected that this newly opened factory would actually develop.

That's a bit fast.

Mosidov listened for a while from a distance, then nodded slightly, and led his men toward another workshop.

"We women are part of the nation."

"We are also capable of labor."

"As our great leader said, women hold up half the sky."

As he approached the workshop entrance, he heard the same shouting. Mosidov saw a woman in overalls without a headscarf raising her arm and shouting loudly.

Dozens of women without headscarves surrounded her and shouted in response.

Hearing the commotion inside, Mosidov didn't go any further. He simply said to the factory manager beside him, "The workers are very enthusiastic. You need to manage them well."

The factory manager stayed close to Mosidov, observing his every move.

Seeing that Mosidov didn't seem angry, he immediately understood that the other party didn't dislike this behavior.

What does he have to be afraid of if Mosidov agrees?

Moreover, this factory isn't made of clay.

These factories built with aid all have factory security teams, and the tools they carry are not just fire pokers. After seeing the factory, Mosidov left in silence the whole way, but he knew clearly in his heart that the changes in the factory's power supply all stemmed from that little red book.

Thinking of this, Mosidov suddenly laughed.

He felt he had found a way to deal with the believers in the country.

On the other side, Ding Wei, Li Yunlong, and Kong Jie were also discussing the situation in Persia.

"Old Ding, you're a real talent."

Li Yunlong gave a thumbs-up in admiration, then picked up the iron jar and clinked glasses with Ding Wei.

Ding Wei sneered when he heard Li Yunlong's praise, but picked up the jar and clinked it against Li Yunlong's, saying, "You can't say anything nice, you little brat. How can you say something so insulting?"

"Hey, Lao Kong, look, he doesn't appreciate my praise at all."

Kong Jie simply drank his wine, not getting involved in the 'grudge' between the two, but he still said to Ding Wei, "Your move was indeed impressive."

"However, this is also related to the fact that the people here are a bit slow on the uptake."

Ding Wei looked smug. "It's not that they're lacking common sense, it's that they lack faith."

"So I brought them faith."

Li Yunlong took a sip of wine, touched his mouth, and laughed, "With your actions, Lao Kong and I have been outdone by you."

"Alright, this time you win, Lao Ding."

Ding Wei felt incredibly proud upon hearing this, but the next second he heard Li Yunlong say, "But don't get too cocky. I recently heard some news that the Alliance in the north is going to open up satellite launches to the public. As long as you have the money, they'll help you launch and send the satellite into space."

"We are currently in contact with the Persians."

"I'm just thinking about how to use this to my advantage and cause some trouble for the league."

Ding Wei put down the wine jar, his expression grave.

"Old buddy, where did you get this information from?"

Kong Jie also looked over, "Li Yunlong, don't give false information."

Li Yunlong tilted his head and pulled a long face, "Kong Erlengzi, if you can't speak properly, then don't speak."

"What do you mean by 'falsely reporting military intelligence'? Would I have said that if I wasn't sure?"

"Let me tell you, I've not only heard that they're going to launch satellites for other countries, but they've also said that in the future, member states can send people to participate in the space program."

As soon as Li Yunlong finished speaking, Ding Wei interrupted him, "Come on, with their skills, if they could go up there, they would have already. It's probably just an empty promise, it's meaningless."

Li Yunlong nodded. "However, I think it's still possible to help launch the satellite. I heard that they've already spent a lot of resources on the moon landing, so they probably want to make some money this time."

Ding Wei nodded, "That's not surprising. No matter how big a family fortune is, it can't withstand such squandering."

"So, Lao Li, what do you want to do?"

Li Yunlong grinned, revealing his bright white teeth, and replied without hesitation, "What else can we do?"

"Of course, we should send out a message saying that they are no longer capable."

"They're thinking of getting a refund, but I'm not going to let them."

Ding Wei shook his head. "Old Li, if I were you, I would tell the people in China about this and let them handle it."

"What?"

Ding Wei picked up the bottle and poured wine for the three of them, then picked it up and said leisurely, "Because you can only vent your anger over this."

"But if we tell the higher-ups, it might cause an even bigger commotion."

After thinking it over for a moment, Li Yunlong finally nodded, "Okay, we'll do it your way."

After the three finished speaking, they continued drinking.

It wasn't until the next day that Li Yunlong reported the news, and then Wang Huzi received the news and called Beijing again.

When Boss Peng received this news, he immediately realized that there might have been some changes within the alliance.

Otherwise, the league wouldn't be so easy to talk to.

Upon receiving the news, Mr. Peng immediately sought out information about the alliance's activities.

Sure enough, after some investigation, an anomaly was found.

After the United States successfully landed on the moon, the Union continued to attempt to reach the moon, eventually leading to a situation where the United States became the sole superpower.

Despite numerous attempts, the alliance has yet to complete the task.

Moreover, after the last spacecraft launch failure, the entire Soyuz space program was like a wilted eggplant, showing no signs of improvement.

The spacecraft, which was originally scheduled to launch last year, has still not been launched.

It is said that there are safety hazards in the spacecraft, which have not yet been eliminated.

However, this precisely exposed the Alliance's weakness in space technology, which was still a step behind the United States.

It now appears that the league has clearly backed down.

Or rather, the league chickened out.

Of course, the league backing down is not good news.

When they first devised the Star Wars program, they were setting a trap for the Alliance.

Now, the league may have to jump out of the hole, which is not good news for them.

After much deliberation, Mr. Peng finally approached Yang Xiaotao.

When Yang Xiaotao arrived at President Peng's office, President Peng explained the situation shortly after he sat down.

"Are you saying that the alliance may no longer invest in space research?"

Yang Xiaotao was somewhat surprised; he had never heard of this in his previous life.

Given the pride and stubbornness of those in the Alliance, how could they possibly let the United States keep riding on their backs?
Moreover, the United States' propaganda has never stopped.

Everyone, inside and out, is mocking the League for not being capable of landing on the moon.

But now, the Alliance is actually withdrawing from the space war?

How can this work!
Yang Xiaotao didn't want the alliance to deviate from its original trajectory because of his involvement.

After all, a powerful and domineering neighbor is not a good thing for the neighbors.

Faced with Yang Xiaotao's doubts, General Peng nodded slightly, "Yes, according to our comrades' observations, this possibility does exist."

"And the possibility is not small."

After listening and pondering for a moment, Yang Xiaotao said solemnly, "President Peng, since you asked me to come, you must have a task to assign. Just tell me!"

President Peng laughed, "Yes, we do have an idea, and we need the cooperation of your Ninth Department."

Yang Xiaotao sat up straight. "President Peng, you said that as long as our Ninth Division can do it, we will definitely complete the mission."

Mr. Peng smiled with satisfaction, "The matter is very simple, just postpone your satellite launch date a little longer."

"Satellite launch?"

"Yes, it's a satellite launch."

Yang Xiaotao asked curiously, "We were originally scheduled to launch in March, but it's been postponed to early April. Will it be postponed again?"

General Peng nodded. "I need about two months to make the arrangements. Are you facing any difficulties in your Ninth Department?"

"Two months, that's fine."

Yang Xiaotao pondered for a moment, then finally nodded.

Two months, that is, mid-April, by which time the satellite will be launched and the nuclear power plant will be able to start generating electricity.

Peng then told Yang Xiaotao the general plan, since the plan required the use of satellites, and informing Yang Xiaotao would save some trouble.

Upon learning the specific plan, Yang Xiaotao could only say, "Peng Zong truly lives up to his reputation."

If this works out, the alliance will be absolutely thrilled.
