I painted an aircraft carrier on the courtyard house for Dongda University.

Two months passed in the blink of an eye. Inside the command center of Red Alert, the atmosphere was oppressively tense. The holographic projection was densely marked with the coordinates of six key military nodes worldwide, their flashing red lights underscoring the urgency of the situation. Zhou Weiguo stood before the projection, his brow furrowed. His usual arrogance had vanished, replaced by a heavy, somber demeanor. He turned to Shaot, who stood waiting beside him, and asked in a deep voice, "Shaot, is everything ready?"

Shaot stood tall to one side, his expression equally solemn, holding a terminal in his hand. He reported to his commander in a steady tone: "Master, all deployments are complete. Currently, a carrier battle group has been secretly deployed in each of the six military bases of the United States and Britain, including the Philippine Kra Air Base, Subi Naval Base, Guam Ander Air Base, Apu Naval Base, Diego Garcia Island in the Indian Ocean, and the British Indian Ocean Territory."

她顿了顿，精準报出编队配置，没有半分差错：「每支航母战斗群均配备尼米兹级核动力航母1艘、055型万吨大驱2-3艘、052D/052DL型驱逐舰2-4艘、054A型护卫舰4艘、901型综合补给舰2艘、核潜艇2艘，攻防体系完备，可随时投入作战。」

"In addition, each of the provinces of Christmas, Amanda, Cigar, and Venezuela has also been equipped with an aircraft carrier battle group, forming a defense and deterrence network that coordinates internal and external forces."

Shaot added, his tone now tinged with concern, "However, all carrier battle groups rely on rift generators to conceal their presence. Once operations commence, the rift generators' concealment effect will instantly fail, and our entire strength will be completely exposed to the world. Master, do you think we should reconsider?"

Zhou Weiguo slowly shook his head, a resolute glint in his eyes, his tone unwavering: "There's no need to wait any longer. Xia Country is in dire straits, being jointly blockaded and suppressed by the US and Canada. It's a matter of life and death. We must rush out and draw global fire for Xia Country."

He spoke with certainty and composure: "Red Alert units are not afraid of death. Even if there are losses, we can simply reactivate Nannan and restore all her memories and combat power. We have nothing to be afraid of."

After a slight pause, Zhou Weiguo's tone became more resolute: "Thousands of deep-sea mining trucks operate day and night on the seabed, extracting energy and accumulating strength—isn't it all for this moment?"

He abruptly changed the subject, pressing in a deep voice, "By the way, have all our own people entered Red Alert space already?"

Shaote immediately nodded, his expression becoming even more serious: "Yes, Master. Apart from the commanders and soldiers waiting outside, all your family members have safely entered the space and are ready for combat. There are no omissions."

"it is good."

Zhou Weiguo nodded heavily, a cold glint in his eyes. "Since the whole world doesn't want China to have nuclear power, then we, the ASEAN, will show the world what real nuclear deterrence is! As for the goose..."

He sneered, his tone icy, "We'll settle this score for joining forces to suppress Xia Kingdom later!"

...................

As his thoughts drifted back to two months ago, Zhou Weiguo couldn't help but sigh to himself.

At that time, intelligence personnel from the United States reported that they had somehow intercepted information about China's development of cutting-edge projects such as nuclear weapons, nuclear submarines, nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, and long-range ballistic missiles. They were utterly shocked, as even the United States, which they considered "great," had not yet fully mastered these advanced technologies.

Initially, the United States was convinced that the Goose was secretly aiding the Xia Kingdom, so they secretly sent people to communicate with the Goose. However, when the two sides met, they were both shocked.

The giant goose didn't believe that Xia Guo could independently develop these cutting-edge technologies. Subsequently, it sent out several delegations to investigate and actually found out the truth: Xia Guo had already quietly built a powerful industrial system and had broken through many nuclear weapons and military technology barriers on its own.

This realization completely panicked both Canada and the United States. These two top global powers secretly reached a consensus and colluded: Canada immediately stopped all aid to China and increased its border defenses, while the United States launched a comprehensive sanction and blockade against China. A conspiracy against China was thus launched.

Militarily, the United States went all out and issued an ultimatum to the Xia Kingdom, demanding that the Xia Kingdom hand over all personnel responsible for the development of nuclear weapons, nuclear submarines, nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, and long-range ballistic missiles, or it would declare war on the Xia Kingdom.

Upon receiving the news, Zhou Weiguo was already trembling with anger, but he never expected that while he was still furious, Yi Zhonghai would once again come to his door with Bang Geng and Jia Dongxu demanding an explanation.

He didn't say much at the time, just threw out 1000 yuan, closed the door, and that night took out the virus medicine that Nannan had given him and secretly injected it into each of them.

It was at that time that his Red Alert system suddenly broke out, completely unlocking many cutting-edge technologies. The crack generator, the Type 055 10,000-ton destroyer, and other advanced equipment and technologies were the results of this system breakthrough.

In order to help Xia Guo get out of its predicament, Zhou Weiguo immediately activated the full-power mining mode, and devoted all his efforts to producing Red Alert units and building a combat system. Today, all the Red Alert combat units for this operation are finally ready.

Zhou Weiguo's gaze was as cold and hard as iron. He turned to Shaote and gave the order: "Shaote, immediately notify the Amanda Province Embassy in the United States and the Embassy in New Zealand to formally notify both countries that in half an hour, our ASEAN Cigar Province will test-fire two intercontinental ballistic missiles, which will land in the Marshall Islands and New Zealand respectively. We earnestly request permission from both countries. It is imperative to emphasize that both ballistic missiles are equipped with nuclear warheads with a yield of more than 5800 megatons of TNT."

Shaote dared not delay for a moment, immediately straightening his posture and accepting the order in a deep voice: "Yes, Master! I will make the arrangements immediately!"

Before he finished speaking, he turned around and strode towards the communication terminal. He picked up the communicator and simultaneously contacted the two embassies, accurately conveying Zhou Weiguo's instructions. Throughout the process, he remained serious and dared not make the slightest mistake.

After a while, Shao returned to the command center, his expression still grave. He reported to Zhou Weiguo, "Master, both the Black Palace and the Goose have agreed to our request. However, their tone was full of mockery, even sounding somewhat laughable. They probably don't take our test launch seriously."

Zhou Weiguo slowly shook his head, his eyes devoid of any emotion, his tone cold and resolute: "I don't need to know what they're thinking now. I just want to see how their two countries react when both missiles hit their targets simultaneously. Pass down the order to begin the test launch!"
