I built an armada.

From the failure of the second round of negotiations to the fierce conflict at sea.

After listening to the report, Su Dingping pondered for a moment and grasped the specific situation at the front line, realizing that they had not yet lost.

Even though many details of the development of events deviated from his expectations, the overall direction and outcome were still within his range.

If the Eagle Tribe only deployed one carrier battle group, then with the current strength of the Dragon Xia Navy, it would be completely easy to take it down; it would be no match for them at all. Su Dingping had no doubt about this whatsoever.

If we don't even have this much capability, then wouldn't it be a waste to build so many 10,000-ton destroyers, 052D destroyers, and modern 054 corvettes?
Whether it's a frigate or a destroyer, they all use the most modern technology, even surpassing the technological level of the warships equipped by the Eagle Tribe Navy. If they still can't defeat a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier fleet composed of these women, then it's not very meaningful.

Furthermore, it makes it seem like the navy's training level is very poor and the navy soldiers are useless?

Winning this naval conflict was a foregone conclusion, something Su Dingping had anticipated. The only unexpected turn of events was that Captain Willis of the Enterprise carrier group would choose to surrender under these circumstances.

The situation has developed to this point, and whatever happened before or what unexpected circumstances arose is no longer important.

At this moment, Professor Zhao and the others also came over, approached Su Dingping, and cautiously asked, "Commander Su, has something happened at the front?"

"An accident? No."

Su Dingping glanced at him in surprise, then explained briefly, "Everything is going very smoothly, and progress is excellent."

"What? Everything went smoothly?"

Professor Zhao and the others were stunned, their eyes widening as they stared intently at Su Dingping.

Holy crap, if everything was going smoothly, why did you look so serious just now? We thought something had happened over there. Did you lie to us?
"Just now, you looked so serious..."

Professor Zhao gave a brief explanation of what he had just seen.

Upon hearing this, Su Dingping immediately laughed and waved his hand, saying, "Oh, that's what it is. It's nothing."

"Let me tell you, it's just that I had a slight disagreement with the commander, but it has nothing to do with the fighting on the front lines."

Upon hearing this, Professor Zhao and the others visibly breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling much more relaxed.

They were genuinely worried that something might have happened at the front. In any case, they were still very concerned about the development of the battle at the front.

Not long after, Guo Xueyun came up, staring intently at Su Dingping, and said softly, "Commander Su, did the Yunfan-3 ballistic missile launched earlier achieve its intended strike effect?"

As researchers engaged in missile research, they naturally pay close attention to the strike effect and are able to fulfill their responsibilities without failing at critical moments.

If the advanced ballistic missiles they develop can be used at critical moments on the battlefield to destroy key targets in one fell swoop, then they will be very happy, which is more important than how high the bonus is!
"The strike effect was quite good."

Su Dingping took a deep breath and calmly explained, "The Yunfan III anti-ship ballistic missile hit the USS Enterprise with great accuracy, directly crippling the carrier and greatly weakening the carrier fleet's combat capabilities!"

"Therefore, our goal is to continuously develop ballistic missiles that are faster, have longer ranges, and have higher accuracy, as well as supersonic missiles!"

"In the world of martial arts, speed is the only thing that cannot be broken. Once the speed is increased to Mach 15 or above, then it can destroy all the golden dome or other bullshit shields that the enemy has built at a cost of hundreds of billions of dollars."

"Our Yunfan series of anti-ship ballistic missiles were developed based on this concept, and have become powerful weapons to strike at the heart of the enemy's defenses!"

Upon hearing these words, Professor Zhao, Guo Xueyun, and the others were overjoyed. Their pupils shimmered with excitement, even sparkling with a crystalline luster.

If they master all the relevant core technologies, then the Yunfan series of anti-ship ballistic missiles will be able to be mass-produced and continuously supplied to the troops.

Thinking of this, the look in their eyes suddenly became incredibly firm.

"Our goal is definitely not to stop at Mach 15, but to continue to climb faster. The next goal is to reach Mach 20. That's my expectation for you, so you still need to work harder!"

Su Dingping held up two fingers on his right hand and earnestly instructed that the Yunfan series of anti-ship ballistic missiles would never stagnate in technology, but would continue to break through speed limits.

Of course, the range also needs to be increased to exceed 5,000 kilometers to achieve long-range sniping of targets. The Eagle Tribe's aircraft carrier fleet must not be allowed to get close to the Dragon Summer Tribe at a distance of 5,000 to 6,000 kilometers.

However, 5,000 to 6,000 kilometers is not the limit for this series of anti-ship ballistic missiles. The goal is to be able to hunt down the Eagle Tribe aircraft carrier as soon as it leaves port!

Su Dingping's goal was to completely destroy the Eagle Tribe's proud aircraft carrier fleet.

If possible, this technology should be disseminated to the Slipper Army in the future, turning the Eagle Tribe's aircraft carrier fleet into a pack of stray dogs!

Encouraged by this encouragement, Professor Zhao, Guo Xueyun, and the others were all in high spirits, their blood boiling with excitement.

Su Dingping then turned to Professor Zhang Qianyi and asked, "Old Zhang, how's the inspection of Yunfan No. 2 going?"

Professor Zhang Qianyi glanced at the documents in his hand and reported truthfully, "Reporting to President Su, Yunfan-2 has completed all checks. It can be launched at any time once the coordinate system is entered!"

Su Dingping nodded, a satisfied smile on his face. It seemed that Yunfan-2 was like an arrow on a bowstring, ready to be launched at any time!

On the other side, at the Naval Headquarters military base.

After hanging up the phone, Liu Huaming couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief, but his brows were still tightly furrowed and had not relaxed. Su Dingping had given him a big problem, and he had no choice but to help solve it!

"Commander, how is it?" Xu Dongguo asked impatiently.

"Hey!"

Liu Huaming sighed and replied helplessly, "Dingping is really stubborn. No matter how I try to persuade him, it's no use. He insists on personally boarding the USS Enterprise."

"The key is that I can't refuse the reason he gave!" Upon hearing this, all the bigwigs showed astonished expressions. They never expected Su Dingping to make such a bold request, which was completely disregarding their own lives.

Just because Su Dingping dared to make such a request doesn't mean they would agree.

"Holy crap, Dingping is dreaming! We absolutely cannot allow that."

Qian Wenbing immediately swore and said anxiously, "Sir, he is our navy's treasure. His personal safety must be the top priority. The navy's development speed can be slower, but with him around, we will have an aircraft carrier sooner or later."

“We are building warships in large quantities like dumplings being dropped into boiling water. We can take some time to settle down. There’s absolutely no problem. You can tell Dingping that we’re not in a hurry and can wait.”

Xiao Chongjun chimed in, "We've waited for over a decade already, can't we wait a little longer? Commander, tell Dingping that we don't need to rush. It's okay if the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier is developed a little later. Our navy can hold out for a while with our current equipment."

Xu Dongguo expressed a similar sentiment, naturally wanting to stop Su Dingping from taking the risk.

"Do you think I didn't say it? I've talked myself hoarse, but he just wouldn't have it. He insisted on boarding the ship, and that was the only request he made."

Liu Huaming picked up his teacup and took a sip, then said helplessly, "If I continue, he'll point at my inflexibility and say I'm stubborn."

“Tell me, how am I inflexible? How am I stubborn? All my earnest advice was just to prevent him from taking risks. I was thinking of his best interests!”

"But then he turned around and accused me. I really wanted to spank him."

"You know what? He also cited the example of those nuclear weapons experts who, disregarding the effects of nuclear radiation, personally went to the nuclear explosion center to collect data. Clearly, he's made up his mind like a stubborn mule, what am I supposed to do?"

After a slight pause, Liu Huaming shook his head with a wry smile.

"That guy even told me that he believed we could definitely guarantee his personal safety."

"Tell me, what am I supposed to do with that guy?"

After hearing the whole story, Xu Dongguo and the other bigwigs all wore bitter smiles; they were helpless too. Su Dingping had gone mad; his dedication to scientific research had reached a point that moved even them. They were completely powerless to stop him.

Such a young man is definitely a great blessing for the navy. With him around, the three armed forces can be said to have no shortage of new equipment. But his persistence is also maddening.

The key point is, they can't refuse either!
"Now that you all know what's going on, let's all use our brains."

Liu Huaming glanced at everyone and asked, "You all need to think of a solution. What should we do next?"

"Anyway, I can't refuse, so it's up to you guys now."

When Liu Huaming threw the problem at them, Xu Dongguo and the others exchanged glances, their faces showing helplessness. In the end, they could only shrug and indicate that there was nothing they could do.

They could not refuse Su Dingping's request, but no matter how they operated or what kind of deployment they made, it was impossible to guarantee 100% security.

In any case, the Enterprise carrier fleet is located in the waters of the Eastern Wilderness Tribe. If they approach the warships, they will encounter a counter-threat from the enemy!
Any slight mistake could seriously threaten Su Dingping's personal safety.

A moment later, Qian Wenbing broke the strange situation: "Dingping is really crazy. He's obsessed with scientific research. He's completely disregarding his own life and death."

Xu Dongguo nodded in deep agreement and said, "He is indeed crazy, but it is precisely because of his crazy pursuit of scientific research that our navy has achieved such a rocket-like development speed today."

"The army and air force wouldn't envy us and would be thinking of poaching Dingping every day."

Xiao Chongjun said, "But he has given us a big problem, and we simply have no way to make a decision."

The group looked at each other, but had to admit that this made perfect sense; every coin has two sides.

If you want to reap the rewards, you must also be prepared to bear the corresponding risks.

Whether it's developing warships, missiles, or nuclear weapons, every project is fraught with enormous risks, and there are countless examples of laboratory explosions.

As for Su Dingping, if it weren't for the existence of the virtual space of the Military Industry Illustrated Forging Space, the laboratory would have been bombed many times. But it was virtual, and even if it was bombed ten thousand times, it could be restored to its original state with a wave of the hand.

Naturally, Su Dingping could proceed with confidence and boldness, without fear of any explosion risks, and without needing to be cautious, advancing step by step.

This means that even if the same batch of projects is given to different research experts for development, Su Dingping is often many times faster than the actual team.

There is an objective reason for this, such as developing an engine for a missile.

If an engine explodes during testing, the test must be stopped, all parts retrieved, the project reset to zero, and the cause of the explosion investigated.

Once it's found, it has to be sent back to the factory for reforging, and then the tests have to be done again, which takes up a lot of time.

In contrast, Su Dingping didn't need any of that. After the explosion, he could simply wave his hand and use the Military Industry Illustrated Forging Space to reset the moment before the explosion, identify the problem, and then conduct targeted research.

This is equivalent to performing a simulation inside a supercomputer, but with a level of accuracy that is many times higher than that of a supercomputer.

Even if it's very difficult, with hundreds of explosions, it won't waste any time, and there's no need to spend a lot of time reforging.

And precisely because of this, his research and development progress is often faster than in reality, and the success rate of the products he produces is extremely high!
After some discussion, the four of them unanimously agreed with Xiao Chongjun's suggestion.

"Sir, we can't make this decision ourselves, so let's ask Marshal Xue. See if he can persuade Dingping again? It would be best if he could dissuade Dingping from taking the risk."

"While Xue Shuai is trying to persuade Ding Ping, let's also think carefully and see if there's a better solution?"

After hearing this suggestion, Liu Huaming pondered for a moment and also felt that this was the only way to proceed. (End of Chapter)
