National Survival: I Supported the Dragon Nation by Hunting Dinosaurs

The Blue Hall of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Beijing, the capital of China.

It was exactly 2 PM.

The press conference hall, which normally holds 500 people, was now packed with people, even the aisles were full.

More than 120 top media outlets around the world have set up their cameras and microphones, and the flashing lights are almost blinding.

The Prime Minister of Japan has been making outrageous statements on the international stage, claiming that China has committed crimes against humanity and demanding UN sanctions.

Although the United States has not directly intervened, its NATO-dominated media system is operating at full capacity to portray China as a militaristic and war-mongering machine.

Today's high-profile global live-streamed press conference is China's response.

The side door was pushed open.

The spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Dragon Kingdom walked steadily toward the press conference platform.

He didn't bring even a single speech draft; his face was ashen, and his cold gaze swept across the entire room.

The noisy Blue Hall fell silent instantly, with only the frantic clicking of camera shutters remaining.

CNN's star reporter has raised his hand, ready to throw out a pointed question about the "deliberate murder of a Japanese sailor."

The speaker ignored anyone who raised their hand. He placed his hands on the podium, leaned forward, and began speaking directly.

There will be no Q&A session today.

The sound traveled around the world through the microphone, carrying an undeniable force.

"I will only report one thing. An act of state terrorism that crosses the bottom line of human civilization and tramples on the basic principles of international law."

The spokesperson pressed the remote control in his hand.

The giant LED screen behind him lit up instantly.

The image is not text, but a high-definition, unedited video recorded by the military.

At night, the sea surface is crisscrossed with the stark white beams of searchlights.

A completely black submarine was forced to surface, its conning tower bearing the Rising Sun Flag paint scheme of the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force.

Chinese special forces soldiers rappelled down the deck, pointing their guns at the submarine crew kneeling on the ground.

The foreign journalists in the audience were in an uproar.

The reporter from NHK, Japan's largest broadcaster, suddenly stood up, his face filled with disbelief.

Screen switch.

Inside the submarine, missile launch tube number one.

Wearing heavy protective suits, bomb disposal experts carefully pulled a warhead with an extremely ugly appearance and its surface covered with radiation warning signs from inside the tube.

As the camera zooms in, a clear string of English serial numbers and the factory stamp of the US military-industrial complex are engraved on the side of the warhead.

"Dirty bomb!" the spokesperson's voice rang out coldly.

"If a device loaded with highly concentrated radioactive isotopes were detonated on the continental shelf of the East my country Sea, it would cause an irreversible ecological disaster that would last for at least three hundred years."

The image on the screen changed for the third time.

This is a white-walled interrogation room.

Under the glaring incandescent light, a blond, blue-eyed white man was handcuffed to an interrogation chair.

His cheekbones were high, his eyes were filled with despair, and there was a noticeable bruise on the bridge of his nose.

The CNN reporter nearly dropped his camera. He recognized the man—a senior CIA operations director, codenamed "Viper."

The video has started playing.

The viper's voice was processed, but it was still clear.

"My name is James Ward, Director of the CIA Special Operations Division."

In the video, the viper swallowed hard, his voice trembling.

"This operation is codenamed 'Taigei'-class submarine, provided by the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force. Our mission is to infiltrate the vicinity of the East China Sea Fleet's home port and detonate dirty bombs."

Interrogator's voiceover: "Who gave the order?"

"The Cabinet Intelligence and Research Office of the Japanese government conducted a joint assessment with the CIA, which was tacitly approved by the White House National Security Council."

Viper lowered his head. "In retaliation for the Dragon Kingdom's destruction of its overseas bases, and to paralyze the Dragon Kingdom's East China Sea defense system."

The video freezes on the viper's pale face.

The Blue Hall was deathly silent for a full ten seconds.

The Japanese reporter looked ashen-faced and slumped into a chair.

The American journalist blushed and tried to connect with his country back home.

Ironclad evidence.

People, submarines, dirty bombs, confessions.

The chain of evidence is perfectly closed, directly nailing the United States and Japan to the pillar of historical shame.

The spokesperson coldly observed the chaos below the stage:

"The Dragon Kingdom has always adhered to the principle of peaceful coexistence, but peace is not something that can be begged for; it is something that must be fought for."

In response to the nuclear terrorist attack jointly planned by Japan and the United States, China is about to launch a countermeasure!

"The country at fault shall bear all the consequences."

After speaking, the spokesperson turned and left, leaving behind a world in uproar.

......

At the same time.

Washington, D.C., the Oval Office of the White House.

"Bang!"

An expensive crystal ashtray shattered against bulletproof glass.

The American decision-maker braced himself on his desk, his chest heaving, his once meticulously combed blond hair now a disheveled mess...

Inside the office, the Secretary of Defense, the CIA Director, and the Secretary of State stood in a row, utterly silent!

The television screen was still playing footage from the Dragon Kingdom press conference on a loop.

"Can anyone tell me what's going on?!"

"Didn't you swear that the Tek Concealment Generator in Area 51 was absolutely perfect?"

Why were they captured alive by the Chinese?! Why couldn't that idiot Viper even commit suicide and instead spilled everything?!

The CIA director wiped the cold sweat from his brow, his voice trembling:

"Mr. President, the technical department has analyzed the last faint signal transmitted from the scene."

It wasn't a submarine malfunction; it was the Dragon Kingdom... The Dragon Kingdom possessed a technology capable of directly paralyzing the Tek energy circuit.

Our concealment field was forcibly shut down the moment we entered their waters.

Upon hearing this, the temperature in the office seemed to drop to freezing point.

The Minister of Defense gasped.

Tektronix has failed? What does this mean?

This means that the "Tek Defense Array" that the United States is so proud of may have become a piece of paper that can be easily broken in front of China!

China not only has the Dongfeng-5C missile, which can hit any target, but now it also has a hammer to smash their turtle shell.

"Damn it! Damn it!" The decision-maker slammed his fist on the table.

He felt an unprecedented fear.

The Dragon Kingdom not only overturned the table, but now they even want to chop up the chairs they're sitting on for firewood.

"Mr. President, now is not the time to dwell on technical issues."

The Secretary of State forced himself to calm down.

"China's press conference has ignited global public opinion. The international credibility of the United States will be completely bankrupt."

"Reputation? Do we still have any reputation?!" the decision-maker roared.

But he was, after all, a seasoned strategist who had been navigating the political arena for many years, and his instinctive political sense led him to make a swift decision.

"Cut! Perform physical cutting immediately!"

The decision-maker's eyes were cold and ruthless:

"Draft a presidential emergency declaration immediately."

First, James Ward (Viper) suffers from severe paranoid schizophrenia.

He was secretly dismissed by the CIA two weeks ago; all his statements are pure hysteria from a mentally ill person!

"Secondly, that dirty bomb was scrap material from overseas; the United States had absolutely no idea where it was!"

"Third..." The decision-maker paused, then gritted his teeth and said, "We strongly condemn Japan's unilateral theft of nuclear materials and its attempt to carry out terrorism!"

The United States is completely unaware of this matter and will cooperate with the international community to impose severe sanctions on Japan!

The CIA director was stunned: "Mr. President, this is tantamount to sending Japan straight to the guillotine. Prime Minister Takahashi pledged his loyalty to us just yesterday..."

"Shut up!" the decision-maker from the United States said coldly.

"The current Dragon Kingdom has the power to destroy us!!! And we are completely powerless against them!"

......

Twenty minutes later.

The Prime Minister's Residence in the Land of Cherry Blossoms.

Prime Minister Takahashi slumped on the large leather sofa, his eyes fixed on the tablet computer in front of him.

On the screen was the emergency statement just released by the White House of the United States.

"Mental illness...discarded goods...one-sided terrorism..."

Takahashi muttered to himself.

"Baka! Baka yarou!"

Takahashi suddenly grabbed the tablet and slammed it hard onto the floor, shattering the screen instantly.

He was sold.

Sold completely and thoroughly, cleanly and completely.

Before the operation, the US special envoy assured Tektronix that everything would go smoothly.

Even if something goes wrong, the great United States will provide a nuclear umbrella for Japan.

But now, with the submarine seized and the dirty bombs confiscated, the United States has turned around and pinned all the blame on him.

"Your Excellency the Prime Minister!"

The Minister of Defense scrambled into the office without even knocking, his face as pale as a sheet.

"Something terrible has happened! Something drastic!"

Takahashi abruptly raised his head, his eyes bloodshot: "What could possibly happen? Has the sky fallen?!"

"It really collapsed..." The Defense Minister trembled.

"The Dragon Kingdom... the main aircraft carrier battle group of the Dragon Kingdom's East China Sea Fleet weighed anchor and set sail five minutes ago! Heading straight for our country!"

Takahashi's head buzzed, and his vision went black.

"What are they trying to do? Declare war?!"

"The Dragon Kingdom has just issued its highest-level navigation warning and announcement of live-fire exercises..."

The Defense Minister swallowed hard.

"The exercise area is defined within the 12-nautical-mile territorial sea line of our country's Kyushu Island, Shikoku Island, and Honshu Island."

One of the target areas... even covers the entrance to Tokyo Bay!

"Within twelve nautical miles?! This is an invasion! This is blatant aggression!" Takahashi screamed.

"No, they say... this is helping the international community eliminate the breeding ground for terrorism."

Takahashi rushed to the desk and grabbed the red secure telephone that connected directly to the top echelons of the Chinese government.

He had to communicate, he had to explain, even if it meant kneeling down and begging for mercy, he couldn't let the Chinese fleet sail into Tokyo Bay...

The phone rang three times.

connected.

The voice of the Dragon Kingdom's decision-maker came through the receiver, calm and utterly undisturbed.

"I am Xiao Gao! Your Excellency, please allow me to explain!"

"This is a misunderstanding! It's a one-sided outburst! We absolutely did not intend to target China!"

Your exercise area is located within our territorial waters, which is a serious violation of international law! You cannot do this!

On the other end of the phone, the decision-maker from Longguo listened quietly as he finished speaking.

There were no emotional fluctuations.

"Takahashi".

The decision-maker of the Dragon Kingdom spoke slowly.

"International law is for humankind, not for wolves."

"Since you dare to send dirty bombs to my doorstep, I'll put a cannon on your bedside table."

"Wash your neck clean and wait!"

"Beep...beep...beep..."

The call was abruptly disconnected.

The dial tone echoed in the empty office.

Holding the microphone, Takahashi collapsed limply under the desk, as if his spine had been drained.

It's over...it's all over.

......

Dragon Kingdom, Eastern Theater Command, East China Sea.

A fierce wind swept up dark clouds, and the sea was turbulent.

But on this raging sea, a massive steel fleet is cutting through the giant waves with unstoppable force, advancing eastward at full speed.

The aircraft carrier "Fujian" is in the center.

On the spacious flight deck, dozens of J-35 stealth carrier-based aircraft, armed with live ammunition, are ready to take off at any time.

On either side of the aircraft carrier are two Type 055 destroyers, each 10,000 tons, resembling sea fortresses.

All 112 vertical launch units were in a ready-to-launch state, and the cold light of the YJ-21 hypersonic anti-ship missile flashed inside the missile bay.

On the periphery, four Type 052D destroyers and six Type 054A frigates form a tight air defense and anti-submarine network.

Beneath the surface, several attack submarines, like deep-sea ghosts, locked onto every target in the waters ahead.

This is the toughest and most terrifying combat formation ever displayed by the Chinese Navy since its establishment.

Fleet flagship, joint command center.

Fleet Commander-in-Chief Lin Zhennan, dressed in a crisp naval officer's uniform, rested his hands on the chart table, his gaze piercing.

"Report to the Commander! The fleet has broken through the first island chain and is now fifty nautical miles from the territorial waters of Japan!" the Chief of Staff reported loudly.

"What was the reaction from the Sakura Kingdom?" Lin Zhennan asked coldly.

"The highest level of air raid sirens has been sounded throughout the entire country of Japan."

The remaining six destroyers of the Maritime Self-Defense Force remained in Yokosuka Port and did not dare to leave the port.

Japan Air Self-Defense Force F-35 fighter jets circled inland, not a single one daring to approach within 200 kilometers of our fleet!

Lin Zhennan sneered.

"The deep-seated flaw of bullying the weak and fearing the strong has not changed for hundreds of years."

He straightened up, adjusted his military bearing, and looked at the dotted line on the big screen that represented the twelve nautical miles of the Sakura Kingdom.

Once upon a time, this dotted line was a chain used by others to blockade the Dragon Kingdom. Today, this dotted line will be utterly crushed by the Dragon Kingdom's steel warships.

Lin Zhennan grabbed the fleet's broadcast communication device.

"Attention, all ships."

"I am Lin Zhennan."

The deep, powerful sound echoed throughout the cabins and decks of every warship. Tens of thousands of Chinese naval officers and soldiers gripped their weapons tightly, their eyes resolute.

"Ahead lies the territorial waters of the Kingdom of Sakura."

"Once, their powerful ships and cannons smashed open our country's gates."

"They committed heinous crimes on our land!!!"

"Today, they are again attempting to pollute our homeland with dirty bombs, cutting off the living space for our future generations!"

"China doesn't provoke trouble, but it's absolutely not afraid of it! Our forbearance is not weakness; our restraint is not retreat! Today, we'll use cannons and truth to teach them a lesson!"

"Pass on my orders!"

"Full fleet, Level 1 combat deployment!"

"Main guns, remove your gun covers!"

"Fire control radar, full-band activation, lock onto all military targets along the Tokyo Bay coast!"

"Dive straight into their territory within twelve nautical miles! Anyone who dares to obstruct us, sink them on the spot!"
