Siheyuan: The Era of Struggle

Chapter 249 The rising sun and the roar of the lion! (Subscribe)
"three!"

"two!"

"one!"

"Fire and launch!"

Following an order from the command console, the missile standing on the launch pad let out a loud roar, followed by a large amount of thick smoke spewing out of its tail.

In the blink of an eye, the missile seemed to have accumulated enough thrust, and it shot straight up into the sky with thick white smoke at the tail.

At the same time, the radars at various monitoring points on the ground were all operating at full power, constantly monitoring the flight trajectory of the missile.

After all, this missile is equipped with a thermonuclear bomb with a TNT equivalent of 200 million tons. If there is any problem, it will be no joke.

"At the No. 1 inspection point, the missile's flight attitude is normal!"

"Test point number two is normal!"

……

Reports from each monitoring point were gathered at the command center. At this time, except for the control console that received and sent commands, everyone was staring nervously at the flight trajectory of the missile on the computer screen.

In the second row of the crowd, several Gallic observers were looking at the trajectory chart on the screen and whispering to each other.

"Mr. Davis, have you noticed that their computers look so light?"

"I really can't believe that there is no desk-sized computer with such powerful functions that can be used to process experimental data of medium-range missiles."

A man in a Gallic uniform whispered.

"I just wonder if they are willing to cooperate with us in the field of computer technology?"

"Shut up, idiot!" Davis is a typical Gallic man, wearing a well-tailored suit. His blond hair and three-dimensional facial features make him look very gentlemanly.

But deep down, he has always looked down on our country, which has been bullied by them for hundreds of years, and he does not believe that we are qualified to engage in technical cooperation with them.

The reason why he accepted our secret invitation to come here this time was to find fault with us and use this to obstruct our cooperation with them.

Although the man was willing to cooperate with us, there were many people within their group who held opposing views.

The reason why we invited these Gallic people to visit us is to show them the progress we have made over the years and lay the foundation for future cooperation between the two sides.

After observing for a period of time, although Davis still had some prejudice against us, he had to admit that we were indeed qualified to cooperate with them.

It was already painful for Davis to admit that we were better than them in some aspects, and now he was even more annoyed when he heard the idiotic questions from his subordinates.

How could he not know what it meant that a computer no bigger than an office desk could be used to calculate and process experimental test data for missiles and thermonuclear weapons?

Of course I know that although Davis has some prejudices against us, he is not stupid.

Now this computer, which is not even as big as an office desk, plus the previous monitoring radar which is small in size but very powerful and stable in operation, all show that this ancient country has left other countries far behind in the field of electronics.

This idiot only focuses on computer technology. Doesn’t he know that integrated circuit technology is the key?

"What's wrong?" The Gallic military representative didn't know why Mr. Davis was angry, so he asked in confusion.

"Am I wrong?" The Gallic military representative said unconvincedly: "If we can introduce this computer technology, then our army's response speed will definitely be much faster!"

"Is it the speed of your surrender?" Davis was almost pissed off by the military representative.

Even if you want it, you can't say it directly in front of others. How can he negotiate with others afterwards?

"Mr. Davis, please apologize to our military. Your words just now have insulted the dignity of our military."

The military representative had forgotten that they were still at our missile launch base and spoke loudly with excitement.

Davis knew things were bad as soon as he heard what the military representative said.

He looked around and found that, as expected, everyone else in the command center looked over curiously after hearing the noise.

At the same time, Davis also saw that our translator was reporting something to the leader in a low voice?
Well, now that it has come to this, let’s just accept the shame.

"Do you military still have dignity? Your dignity was thrown into the Atlantic Ocean at Dunkirk."

Davis then saw that the Gallic military representative was still trying to explain himself, so he quickly shouted at him, "Shut up, and talk when you get back."

He was really afraid that the military representative would continue talking and reveal all their cards.

"Okay!" The military representative saw everyone looking at them and seemed to realize that he had said something wrong, so he shrugged and backed off.

Isn’t it just a compromise? I’m familiar with this!
After the chief understood what happened to the Gallic rooster representative, an intriguing smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

As the monitoring reports from each monitoring point came back, the test missile, with a rising sun, flew firmly along the planned route towards the target sea area.

At this time, near the target sea area, a supply ship with two missile destroyers surrounded the entire sea area.

Not far from them, there were several scientific research ships of unknown nationality cruising nearby.

"Commander, do you want to drive them away?"

A soldier asked the person in charge of the observation point at the shooting range.

"Don't worry about them." The person in charge waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "If they want to watch, let them watch as much as they want. This time we want them to know that we have swords in our hands now, so that they can restrain themselves in the future."

"By the way, remember to take good care of our guests and don't let anything unexpected happen to them."

"Yes, we have arranged for those guests to be on an observation boat farthest from the shooting range to ensure that there will be no problems."

At this moment, an emergency signal suddenly sounded on the ship, indicating that the missile was about to reach the target range. "Everyone, pay attention, the sun is about to rise, everyone return to your posts."

At the same time, several other observation ships also entered their respective observation points. Except for the observation personnel, everyone put on sunglasses and looked at the distant sky nervously.

The radars on the three observation ships were all activated, searching for traces of the missiles.

On an observation boat farthest from the shooting range, several Gallic men also put on sunglasses and looked around with binoculars.

"Everyone pay attention, everyone pay attention, the target has been found, the target has been found!"

"Target direction, 500 kilometers northwest, altitude 60 kilometers, speed 13.6 Mach! Flight attitude, 75 degrees, attitude normal!"

After hearing the notification from the radar station, everyone raised their binoculars and looked in the direction of the target sea area from afar.

In less than two minutes, a warhead with a red surface appeared in the sky. Just when everyone was ready, the warhead suddenly exploded 400 meters above the target sea area.

At this moment, it seemed that two suns appeared in the sky. The ring-shaped gas cloud had just dispersed, and a huge mushroom cloud rose into the sky.

Under the huge impact force, the sea surface at the center of the explosion suddenly sank, then surged up like a pot exploded, and finally turned into a huge wave, spreading in all directions.

"Oh my god! Oh my god!"

While our observation ship was collecting data, the Gallic people on the observation ship and the foreigners of unknown nationality on the research ship cruising nearby all exclaimed in amazement at the rising sun a hundred kilometers away. They all knew that the rising sun meant that the clay-footed giant had completely stood up again.

After the "sun" rose, the mushroom cloud that reached the sky had not yet dissipated when a loud noise was heard.

This sound, like a thunder explosion, seemed to announce to the world that a great country had proudly risen in the East.

"Data collection completed, requesting evacuation!"

At this moment, the voice of the data collection team came from the console.

"Agree to evacuate!"

Three hundred kilometers away from the shooting range, three observation ships gathered here to form a formation after evacuating the target sea area.

"How about it?"

After they reunited, the range manager asked hurriedly.

"Reporting to the commander, the missile has a range of 6000 kilometers, a terminal speed of Mach 15, and will explode 400 meters above the center of the range, one kilometer away. The explosive yield is 200 million tons of TNT equivalent."

"Has the data been reported?" the range manager asked hurriedly.

"The data has been reported!"

"That's good! That's good!"

The person in charge of the shooting range rubbed his hands excitedly, then waved his hand and said, "Order to return!"

"Yes!"

…………

“…It took us a hundred years to finally wake up this sleeping lion!”

"At this moment, he let out his first roar after waking up, and this roar was so deafening."

"I think from now on, no country will dare to easily provoke this lion that has just awakened from its slumber."

"It can use a powerful bow with a range of 5600 kilometers to accurately transmit its voice to every corner within this range."

"I think this is what the Gallic rooster of our dreams looks like, right?"

"So, we have become orphans in the world, what are we still hesitating about?"

The evening breeze on the sea was so intoxicating. Sludge lay on the deck, put away his notebook, stood up and walked to the fence, looked up at the bright stars above his head, and fell into deep thought.

If our country also possessed such a national treasure, would it have given up its interests in the canal in the past few years due to pressure from the Eagle Sauce and the Russian Bear?

Well, considering the speed at which his country’s army surrendered more than a decade ago, Slachi was not sure.

But he knew that if his country possessed this national treasure, neither the United States nor the Russians would dare to ignore the interests of their own country.

At this moment, he was extremely grateful that when his country was isolated and helpless, this ancient country extended a hand of friendship to them.

Although they had some unpleasantness a few years ago, that was because they were too honest and were instigated by the Eagle Sauce.

So let go of what happened in the past and look forward.

“Cheers to friendship!”

Slage poured himself a glass of wine, raised the glass to salute Dongfang from afar, and then drank it all in one gulp.

It is said that this wine is their national wine and is used to entertain the most distinguished guests.

"Ahem, this is really spicy..."

People's Daily: "Yesterday, after the unremitting efforts of our scientific researchers, my country's first missile and hydrogen bomb with a range of 5600 kilometers were successfully tested and are ready to hit the target sea area..."

"...After friendly consultations between the two sides, we have established formal diplomatic relations with Gaul..."

National Radio: "…This is an exciting moment, a moment when we have the confidence to say no to anyone…"

Agence France-Presse: "... just when everyone has abandoned us, the awakened lion of the East has extended a hand of friendship to us. At this moment, let us wish long live friendship!"

With the successful launch of our medium-range ballistic missile with a range of 5600 kilometers and the successful explosion of thermonuclear weapons, the previous fierce condemnations from the Eagle Sauce and the Russian Bear came to an abrupt end.

Everyone experiences joys and sorrows differently. Just as we are celebrating together, the Russians and the Americans are scared out of their wits by the news.

The missile has a range of 5600 kilometers and can carry thermonuclear weapons. After the two countries lay down on the map and measured it, they suddenly jumped up.

This means that the core area of the Russian bear is already within this range. As for the Americans, this range means that their troops stationed in the second island chain are no longer safe.

Now we have the ability to turn the table over with them.

"Yang Ning, take a look. This is the preliminary agreement on the cooperation project we have reached with Gallic Chicken. Do you have anything to add?"

Although Yang Ning is no longer responsible for the data processing of all scientific research projects, after all, most of our research results in the past few years were achieved so quickly thanks to Yang Ning's ability.

Therefore, when it comes to cooperating with Gallic Chicken, the higher-ups should first ask for Yang Ning's opinion.

Yang Ning read the agreement that Director Nie handed over. In addition to the cooperation projects that had been established before, Yang Ning found that there were many more that had not been mentioned before.

For example, in terms of computer technology, after the Gallic rooster discovered that our computer technology was far ahead of other countries, it proposed cooperation in this area. We provide computer hardware and they are responsible for developing software technology.

The two parties cooperated to create an industrial software, and on this basis, they jointly developed a new generation of CNC machining centers.

In the field of aviation, in addition to helicopter projects, they are also willing to provide us with their most advanced aviation engine technology.

The Gallic chickens have one thing to say: "We are sincere, take whatever you like!"

"No large surface ship technology?" Yang Ning asked curiously.

"The Gallics agreed to transfer this technology, but we can't afford the equipment now!" Director Nie said awkwardly.

"Oh!"

Yang Ning understood that it is indeed not suitable for us to vigorously develop the navy now. We are in a difficult period now. The higher-ups want to save some money and exchange more food for it.

After all, even if we have some reservations when it comes to our partners at Gallic Chicken, we still suffer losses overall.

As for how to make up for our losses, I guess we can let the Gauls make up for it with food.

Besides, the navy is so expensive that we can’t afford it with our current savings.

The supply ships and missile destroyers built before have already met our current coastal defense needs!
