Siheyuan: I eat melons while doing scientific research

Chapter 1100 End of intervention in the war?

When it came to "best", the minister hesitated, but his face prevailed over his conscience.

As the saying goes, a donkey will never fall down even if it dies. Whether it is the Russians or the Americans, they have all carried out this concept to the extreme.

Face? What is a face?

To be honest, the Russians' great strength and excellent integration capabilities were hardly used on early passenger aircraft, as passenger aircraft had too high requirements for economy, and it just so happened that the Russians were relatively weak in this regard.

Linochka had almost no hesitation about the minister's answer. In his opinion, this was inevitable, and he also felt that the southern comrades did not seem to be very good at this.

"Okay, I understand, Mr. Minister. However, the comrades in the south are very interested in helicopters, and they have also put forward new requirements for helicopters."

"New requirements?" the minister turned around and asked.

"Yes, they want to buy more Mi-6 helicopters, as well as the V-8A helicopters that we are still developing," said Linochka.

"Mi-6? This heavy helicopter is very expensive to use and can be replaced by medium-sized helicopters in most cases. Do they have such a great demand for it?" The minister felt that Comrade Nan Fang's choice seemed a little unwise.

"It is said that some of their construction sites are difficult to reach by road, and they want to use the Mi-6 to lift construction machinery in, so as to save money on road construction, or lower the level of the road. Compared with the cost of using the Mi-6, the road is obviously more expensive." We are very frank about the use of the Mi-6 and say whatever we have to say.

"The machinery has gone in, but what about the construction materials? What about the subsequent maintenance?"

“I don’t know, but some types of projects can be made with local materials if they are designed properly.” Linochka is a subordinate in front of the minister, but outside, he is considered a senior official and has his own abilities.

The minister nodded. "Well, they own almost all the terrain in the world, just like us. And the V-8A? They are already buying Ka-25s, and now they want the V-8A. It seems that they value helicopters as much as the Citigroup people do."

We have all the topography in the world except for the fjords. Well, a very famous country with fjords is in Oceania, but it’s a pity that our ancestors couldn’t get there.

Linochka nodded: "The Ka-25 is used on warships, and the V-8A is used on land. It seems that the southern comrades have great ambitions."

In any case, the V-8A is difficult to use on ships. Even decades later when we had amphibious assault ships, they still used a development model of the Gallic Super Wasp.

"Well... in principle I have no objection to selling them the V-8A, but this matter requires a higher level of permission. This weapon is too new," the minister said to Linochka.

No matter how advanced the V-8A is, it is only a transport helicopter, which reduces its sensitivity to a very low level. It can even be said that in terms of intuitive reaction, the sensitivity of this thing is not even as high as that of a full set of Ka-25 anti-submarine helicopters.

The rocket launcher is a weapon, but the truck under the rocket launcher is not. That’s probably the logic.

The only problem is, this thing isn't even finalized yet, it's a little too new.

“Perhaps the southern comrades saw the usefulness of helicopters in the struggle between the Southern Jiaozhi and the American and Southern Jiaozhi peoples,” Linochka said.

"I think our comrades should also consider using helicopters as a tactical tool, not just a simple means of transportation."

There is a clear difference between using it for transportation alone and using it as a tactical weapon. Both the Americans and the Russians after 79 are deeply aware of this.

The American helicopters dropped more in Jiaozhi, and the Russian helicopters dropped more in the Imperial Cemetery.

"Okay, I understand everything about this matter. I will handle it."

At about the same time, the Citigroup guys were having a headache over the loss of their helicopter.

"Mr. Commander, I have to remind you that since we started intervening in Jiaozhi affairs in 61, we have lost (deleted) nearly 200 helicopters and a large number of people on board. According to statistics, about half of the crew members and passengers of these downed helicopters are KIA." A military aide frowned and said to the commander of Citi.

If Gao Zhendong were here, he would probably laugh at them. You have just arrived, but you have lost nearly 5000 helicopters, and the KIA probability is almost the same.

This is the early stage of intervention, and there has not been a large-scale intervention, so there are less than 200 in two years. "Close to 200? Ah, my boys in California, Florida, and Texas, I pray for them. What is the main cause of the loss? Do you have statistics?"

"Orientals!"

"Orientals? Is there any evidence that they also joined the war?" The words of the military aide shocked the president of Citigroup. This was completely bad news. It had been less than 1953 years since 10. He knew very well what had happened 10 years ago. Was it going to happen again?

No matter how tough the Citigroup bosses are, the top Citigroup bosses are different from the rednecks below. They have perfect information channels, are educated, and are not fools.

"No..." Perhaps they did not expect the commander's reaction to be so strong, the military staff hurriedly explained: "However, in addition to a small number of our helicopters being destroyed by the guerrillas on the ground, a large number of them were shot down by the portable anti-aircraft missiles provided to the Jiaozhi people by the Orientals."

"Portable anti-aircraft missiles... This doesn't sound like the Eastern country we know." Citigroup's leader pondered, "So what are your suggestions?"

The military staff took out another document: "This is an informal discussion document of the joint meeting. Their suggestion is to expand the scale of intervention, enrich the forms of intervention, and try to cut off the ground transportation routes between the North Jiaozhi and the South Jiaozhi to prevent them from getting enough northern weapons. What causes us trouble is not only portable air defense missiles, but also rocket launchers, bazookas, and even every AK and SKS of the South Jiaozhi."

No matter what we call it, the Americans only recognize AK and SKS.

"Expand the scale of intervention and enrich the forms of intervention? Why don't they just say expand the war? In this way, we will need to invest more manpower, more materials, more expensive weapons..." Although the president of Citigroup has great ambitions but little talent, he still understands these things clearly. After all, he is no stranger to similar lobbying, as they are all monks in the same temple.

"No, no, no, Sir Commander, this is just a necessary measure to reverse the situation in Jiaozhi and consolidate the status quo of our allies. If you want to gain something, you must pay a price, right?" the military staff suggested. From a practical point of view, there is nothing wrong with his words, but when the price is too high to bear, it is worth discussing.

"No, I need to think about this matter. Or, can we consider pulling our legs out of this quagmire? That is the business of the Jiaozhi people, not ours." The Citigroup leader felt that his idea was correct.

Let our soldiers fight for the Jiaozhi people on a large scale? This father is too frustrated. Although the transport captain fought poorly, at least he fought from beginning to end. And these people behind are more rubbish than the other.

How can that be possible? How can we promote the idea of ​​the promotion camp?

The military staff held back the words that were about to come out of their mouths, and continued to persuade their commander: "Commander-in-chief, I wonder if this will make White Bear think that we are weak and retreating? And if so, the first iron chain to encircle the Orientals will be broken at the root of the chain."

The commander shook his head. "If it's about encircling the white bear, I will be happy to pay any price, but for the Orientals, it's not worth it. Their status is not that important. We have basically completed the encirclement of the white bear through Europe and the two countries of Japan and South Korea in East Asia. I don't think it's worth spending such a huge price on the Orientals."

The military staff are all annoyed. Others want you to add a few dishes, but not only do you not add them, you also want to take the pot away?
"Mr. Commander, the development potential of Oriental people is enormous. It is unwise to give up Jiaozhi rashly." He was trying to make a final effort. This "last" has several meanings.

The commander seemed to realize that he couldn't say it so bluntly. A smile appeared on his face. "Okay, my General, I will consider this matter carefully. Now let's change to a lighter topic. For example... the reporters will come to take pictures of me, my daughter and her pony..."

As one of the top internet celebrities in ancient times, the President of Citigroup has done a very thorough and thorough job in building his personal image. His family's daily life in White Hall can often be seen in newspapers. This is just like the street photos of celebrities, which seem to be taken unintentionally, but in fact, those who understand will understand the twists and turns behind it.

The staff sighed helplessly: "Okay, my commander-in-chief, I hope you will consider this matter carefully and deeply."

The Citigroup leader waved his hand absentmindedly, indicating that he understood. Then he looked at the opened office door and stretched out his hands: "My little angel, you are finally here..."

The staff member turned around and took a deep look at the office in White Hall.
-
Gao Zhendong had no idea how much trouble he had brought to the Citigroup bosses by flapping his little wings. Even if he knew, he would only be happy.

He was receiving comrades from the Defense Working Committee, who had come to get information, namely the first draft of the military equipment data bus standard compiled by Gao Zhendong based on MIL-STD-1553B.

Holding the feather-light floppy disk in his hand, the comrade from the Defense Work Committee locked it in a thick box, saluted Gao Zhendong, and turned to leave.

Gao Zhendong had just turned around and sat down when the phone rang.

After picking up the phone and hearing the other party's voice, Gao Zhendong was a little confused. Didn't your people just leave? Why are they calling again?

"Comrade Zhendong, please come to the committee immediately. I have a small matter to consult you about." The voice of the leader of the Defense Work Committee came from the phone.
