"Whether we look at the problem under the new national defense situation or in order to expand the Republic's external voice, aircraft carriers have to be built." Ye Kaijian's words finally calmed these people down.
Then he softened his tone and said, "The 3 million square kilometers of sea territory is not only composed of a few islands and reefs, and piles of guano, but also contains marine fishery resources, rich rare mineral deposits, and abundant oil and gas field resources.
These are the fundamentals of a modern country. According to the current development rate, in twenty years, almost every household in the city will have a car, and some families even have more than two cars. Our current oil and gas reserves,
How can you hold on?"
"Think back when Japan launched its war of aggression against China, wasn't it just to expand its living space? What it needed was nothing more than these energy and resources, or cheap labor."
"I know you are all experts in politics, but when it comes to economics, you are not good at it."
"As a politician, it is right to have a long-term vision, but you cannot be short-term. A wrong prediction will bring huge practical difficulties to the entire country."
"Some people may use the Manchu Qing Dynasty as an example, saying that Li Hongzhang spent huge sums of money to build huge ships and heavy artillery to build the Beiyang Navy, but in the end he lost to the slightly inferior Japanese Navy. But this matter depends on the environment at the time.
Yes, Emperor Guangxu ate an egg, and the price the eunuch quoted him was ten taels of silver. How can a completely decayed dynasty be compared with us?"
"A hundred years ago, the root cause of the rise of great powers was resources. A hundred years later, the root cause of the rejuvenation of great powers is still resources!"
"In an environment where the shadow of nuclear weapons has spread all over the world, we are destined to fight wars dominated by conventional weapons."
"In order to maintain the maritime security of 3 million square kilometers, protect the Republic's marine resources, and deter the enemy, aircraft carriers must be built!"
In fact, these words are very simple, but once some people reach a high position, they will feel that everything is under their control, and gradually no one dares to say these words to them.
There are so many sufferings among the people, why can’t those in high positions see it?
Just like when Taizu was still alive, he deeply lamented that he had been surrounded by all kinds of lies and deceptions. What he saw and heard were all untrue images and untrue words, which did not touch the real situation at the grassroots level.
How can we make targeted adjustments if there is no chance?
It is still the same today. As soon as the leaders go out, tensions start to rise in various places. All kinds of arrangements, arrangements, and deceptions are made like a dragnet, without leakage.
Regarding the real situation, some people are incapable of speaking, some are capable but unwilling to speak, and some are capable of speaking but cannot do so because it will harm their own interests. The True King has no desires and desires and is capable.
Those who give lectures can truly be called phoenixes and unicorns.
Ye Kai is undoubtedly a clear-minded person. He understands both the suffering at the grassroots level and the struggle at the top. He also has very strong strength. From his standpoint, it actually doesn’t matter whether he talks about it or not.
From the perspective of his own conscience, since he could predict that their decision-making was wrong and would affect the national destiny decades later, Ye Kai naturally could not let it go and had to point out some of their shortcomings clearly.
"Actually, there is really no point in what I say." Seeing that everyone was immersed in complicated thoughts, Ye Kai waved his hands and said, "It's not my turn to worry about national affairs. The reason why I speak like this is also
I just see that you don’t understand the situation at the grassroots level and don’t know some things, so I feel a little pity for you. Saying these things is just an offending thing.”
After finishing speaking, Ye Kai bowed to the previous member of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the other leader of the Central Military Commission who had spoken, and expressed his apology, "My words just now were a bit extreme. Ye now apologizes to these two people in public."
I apologize."
"Hey……".
"It's okay, it's just a dispute over political opinions, it's nothing."
When the two of them met, they felt a little embarrassed. Although they were a little annoyed by Ye Kai's attitude just now, in front of everyone, they were already apologizing. Besides, they were juniors, so how could they be so fussy about it? In that case, it would be too much.
There was no standard anymore, so everyone waved their hands to indicate that it was nothing.
"If you are willing to fight, you will perish. This is a good saying, but there is another sentence behind it. If you forget to fight, you will be in danger!" Ye Kai said, "Military industry, energy, medical care, housing, education, these are also the foundation of the country and cannot be acted rashly. If only
Because I was greedy for the immediate benefits, I gave up these things. If I still regret it in the future, I will see the results in not a hundred years, but in ten or twenty years.
Ye Kai's words were like a sage's prophecy, so convincing and conclusive that after everyone listened, they began to ponder in their hearts. Could it be that the grandson of the old Ye family is really that powerful?
Can you predict whether the enemy will succeed in everything?
Some of the things that happened before are enough to prove that Ye Kai is a rare talent. At this time, he is vigorously promoting the large aircraft carrier strategy. It really makes people think that this young man is very extraordinary.'
"What's the military's opinion?" Comrade Jiang Cheng asked after listening for a while.
Ye Kai has talked about it. In fact, everyone attaches great importance to this issue in their hearts. Although it seems to be just a decision now, as Ye Kai said, twenty years later, it is likely to be a decision that affects the destiny of the country.
A big thing.
As senior executives, as big bosses who have no problem living for another twenty years, they naturally hope that twenty years from now, when people look back on this period of history, they will say that their decisions at that time were wise and they created a glorious history.
, no one wants to be pointed in the nose and scolded, saying that they did not know what kind of madness they made at the beginning, and what a stupid and wrong decision they made.
The second old man glanced at Tian Wenjian, the trusted deputy chief of the Military Commission, and said, "Old Tian, tell me. As an uncle and grandfather, I naturally can't express my support for my grand-nephew first. In that case, it would be a bit too arrogant, which would make people look at me."
I feel like this is a place where everyone speaks, and it’s a family.
Tian Wenjian glanced at the second old man, coughed, and then said, "In principle, the military supports General Ye Kai's plan for the large aircraft carrier strategy."
After a pause, he continued, "Taking the Gulf War as an example, we can see the huge power of integrated sea and air operations. This is a revelation and a spur to us. We are entering the information age.
, The application of high technology will shine in war. Iraq was defeated so quickly in the Gulf War because they only had ground troops."
The so-called integrated sea and air operations are actually the war concept that the United States is taking shape.
Meinian believes that in the future, the military will be polarized, and the development focus of the ground services will shift to low-end warfare, with the purpose of combat being anti-guerrilla and counter-insurgency. In addition to continuing to support the ground services to cope with current operational needs, the navy and air force have begun to consider
High-end warfare, with the support of high-tech space technology intelligence and network communication technology, relies on advanced equipment to create a rapid response, unified command, and powerful firepower that can cover the opponent's main war nodes in a short period of time and completely or mostly paralyze the opponent's organization.
A military strike group with command and counterattack capabilities can seize the initiative in the initial stage of the war, inhibit the counterattack capabilities of powerful opponents, and lay the foundation for the final victory of the US military.
To achieve this goal, the U.S. military must have a more secure and reliable reconnaissance command system and powerful deep strike capabilities.
According to some existing sporadic information, the United States' integrated sea and air warfare mainly relies on the following systems to exert its power: the ship-based unmanned aerial surveillance and strike system with the X-47B as the core, long-range anti-ship missiles
System la**, high-speed cruise missile system exceeding five times the speed of sound, conventional rapid global strike cpgs, ssgn cruise missile nuclear submarine, multi-layer ballistic missile defense, etc.
"If the United States wants to accompany the war in the Western Pacific, in addition to its existing military bases in the Western Pacific, it must rely on aircraft carriers. The question now is how to ensure that these bases and aircraft carrier battle groups can both exert firepower and form an effective attack on the opponent.
It can also ensure that the opponent's countermeasures will not threaten the survival of these bases and aircraft carriers."
"If the effective coverage of the opponent's firepower exceeds the effective radius of the aircraft carrier's aircraft, where to place the aircraft carrier during wartime will naturally become the most troublesome issue for the US military."
"If the U.S. aircraft carrier cannot come within the attack range of carrier-based aircraft, the combat effectiveness of the U.S. aircraft carrier fleet will not be able to be used. If it enters the opponent's fire strike circle, how can it ensure that it will escape unscathed after the attack?"
"If the attack is successful and you are sunk, at least you will die together and you will not lose. If you are sunk before completing the combat mission, you will naturally die in peace."
"So our judgment is that we can ensure maritime rights and interests without an aircraft carrier on the eastern front. We only need existing nuclear submarines as the aircraft carrier's deterrent weapon."
"But in the South China Sea, facing dozens of small countries that only need to be dealt with with conventional weapons, to resolve these small countries that have many conflicts of interest with the Republic, two aircraft carrier formations must take turns to perform tasks.
, to ensure the security of the South China Sea, this is the minimum limit."
"From a financial point of view, if we build our own aircraft carrier, the cost will be much less than that of Europe and the United States. After all, their investment in labor, materials and research and development is much higher. We don't need that much, a quarter
The investment is probably enough.”
"Of course, if funds become abundant in the future, it will be more appropriate to have four aircraft carrier formations, and our ocean-going interests will be protected to a certain extent."
While he was talking, the door was suddenly pushed open.
"I heard that my grandson is causing trouble again?" Mr. Ye appeared at the gate and asked gracefully.
