Reborn Before the Apocalypse: My Backing is the Nation

Chapter 41 Laser

God's Horse ensures international peace!
Don't be too sensitive about the "God's Horse Spirit"!
Daniel wanted nothing more than to tear the document in front of him to shreds and then throw it at the face of the person who drafted it, from a distance of ten thousand kilometers.

You shot me right next to the head with a gun, the bullet was only 1 centimeter away from my head, and you still told me not to be mentally sensitive.
What's the difference between an intercontinental ballistic missile flying over our heads and someone shooting me 1 centimeter from the side of my head?
Who knows if your hand will slip and the bullet will just happen to smash my head? Just like who can guarantee that your missiles won't suddenly fall down?

Another multinational emergency meeting was convened, and an agreement was quickly reached.

"The United Nations issued its strongest warning to that Eastern country, demanding that it immediately halt its intercontinental ballistic missile test launch plan."

If the other party refuses, then... the same applies!
We will also launch intercontinental ballistic missiles that pass through the other side's territory! Furthermore, we will take all necessary measures to intercept their intercontinental ballistic missiles!

At this moment, the international situation suddenly became tense, and many small countries fell silent.

The topic of this intercontinental ballistic missile is causing a huge uproar online, with everyone anxiously awaiting that day.

Perhaps... a full-scale nuclear war is really on the horizon? Is the world truly about to be destroyed?

Time slipped by quietly, and before we knew it, the appointed day arrived.

Jiang Yang and Zhou Yu returned to the command center to watch the live broadcast of the intercontinental ballistic missile launch with everyone else.

At this moment, countless eyes around the world are focused on this scene.

"Three, two, one..."

The countdown is over.

Jiang Yang saw a dazzling burst of fire suddenly erupt from the once lush green forest.

A colossal cylindrical missile, as tall as a dozens of stories, slowly ascended into the air, rapidly increasing its speed amidst smoke and flames. In just two minutes, it had soared into the sky and disappeared from sight.

Instantly, countless somewhat alarmed discussions appeared online.

It launched! It really launched!
On the other side of the world, in the International Security Joint Conference Room, Daniel was trembling slightly.

Our missile interception system is already ready. But whether we can actually intercept it is uncertain.

If it cannot be intercepted, and it does indeed fall in your city...

Intelligence indicates that this type of intercontinental ballistic missile can carry ten hydrogen bomb warheads, with each warhead having a yield of up to 150 million tons of TNT.

A single warhead can destroy an entire city.

Furthermore, it also has the capability to release individual warheads separately. That is, it can release one warhead when it flies over a city, and release another when it flies over another city.

In theory, this single missile could destroy ten major cities, causing more than 100 million casualties.

This is a truly strategic weapon of mass destruction.

At that moment, he knew that his life might be on a countdown.

He noticed a slight tremor in his boss's voice.

"Intercept them! Organize an interception immediately!"

Our missiles are launched! Launch!

In the vast jungle, a giant missile, dozens of stories high, flew out, disappeared into the sky.

Doomsday Base 7.

Despite having gone through several life-or-death trials, Jiang Yang was still slightly nervous at this moment.

"Our missiles should be intercepted, right? At the same time, the enemy should have launched missiles as well, and our interception system..."

Gu Changshan remained calm and composed, his voice steady and collected: "Don't worry, it's alright."

call……

Jiang Yang let out a soft breath and refocused his attention on the live stream.

The public view is now an animated simulation. However, the Doomsday 7 Base remains a real-world location, composed of multiple signal sources including missile signals, satellites, and ground bases.

At this moment, the Earth in the image has taken on a spherical shape, indicating that the missile has climbed to an extremely high altitude. Several red dots are rapidly flying towards this missile.

Jiang Yang's heart slowly rose.

He knew that this was the initial stage of missile interception, that is, intercepting a missile in the early stages of its launch when it was moving slowly and trying to gain altitude.

Those red dots did not intersect with our own missiles.

Jiang Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

He looked at Gu Changshan: "Did we intercept the enemy's missile?"

Gu Changshan shook his head: "We haven't started intercepting them yet."

Jiang Yang was taken aback.

On the other side of the world, Daniel stared intently at the screen, his heart pounding.

"The missile was successfully launched and no interceptor missiles were detected during the launch."

"Huh, huh..."

This can probably be considered good news.

Our side failed to intercept the enemy's missiles, but the enemy also failed to intercept our missiles.

The initial phase, or the ascending phase, lasted approximately 5 minutes.

At this moment, the originally massive intercontinental ballistic missile has been drastically shrunk to less than ten meters in length.

Its massive shaft had completed its mission and separated from the projectile.

At this moment, the warhead is about 2000 kilometers above the ground. Due to the inertia of its initial velocity, it begins to "glide" along an elliptical trajectory at a speed of several kilometers per second, and will reach its target in about 20 minutes.

During this process, it has only a small amount of power and can only make some minor adjustments to its attitude and trajectory.

Time passed slowly and solemnly.

Jiang Yang knew that at this moment, not only were his own missiles flying towards the enemy, but the enemy's missiles were also flying towards him at a considerable speed.

"Interception initiated!"

Gu Changshan issued the order in a deep voice. The next moment, the image of a satellite silently floating in space and orbiting the Earth appeared on the big screen.

Its surface device moved slowly, revealing several windows that looked like glass lenses.

After a few seconds of countdown, Jiang Yang saw its lens seem to light up slightly, like a candle being lit in the darkness, not at all dazzling.

The brightness lasted for less than a second before returning to darkness, then brightened again after a while, and then went dark again.

The alternation of light and darkness seemed to be sending some kind of signal.

"This is……"

Jiang Yang couldn't understand what was going on.

But the next moment, Gu Changshan's voice came over.

"Interception... Successful!"

Jiang Yang suddenly looked up.

How did it succeed?

What did you do?
Gu Changshan's expression remained serious, and his tone remained calm, without the slightest emotional fluctuation: "In the previous ten minutes, our laser interception satellite was activated a total of 55 times, hitting the enemy's missile warhead 48 times, successfully destroying the enemy's key components such as navigation, communication, and attitude engines."

This is the first time we've used laser-based satellite interception in actual combat. Excellent, it hasn't let us down.
