Volume 8 A Hundred Years of Grudge Chapter 5 The Warmakers

When Notsuka Pheasant got up, Toki Tanikatsu and Sato Shin and others went. 【Reading.com】

Gu Shu Liangping didn't mind who made an intelligence briefing in front of the prime minister, but those soldiers were different. In the view of Dongji Gu Sheng and others, having civilian personnel make defense briefings is simply the greatest insult to soldiers. In fact, Tsukasa Ohno was not a mere civilian official, but was a senior adviser on defense policy at Mitsubishi Heavy Industries before he became the Prime Minister's Defense Secretary, providing important reference opinions for Mitsubishi Heavy Industries' development of weapons and equipment. In addition to this, he also served in the Japan Air Self-Defense Force for 8 years, flew 4 fighter jets, and was an officer of Osaku when he retired.

The fact that Ono Tsukasa Pheasant was able to serve as the defense secretary has a lot to do with the fact that he started a business with Murakami Sadamasa in his early years.

With this extraordinary status, Ono Tsukasa has a very high status in the "shadow cabinet", and is one of the few people who can talk to each other on an equal footing.

"As the minister said, the war on the peninsula is not over yet, and China is preparing for the next war." Unlike Murakami, Ono Tsuka's words are more assertive, "I believe everyone remembers the program for building China's national defense and military forces mentioned at the army meeting by Wang Yuanqing, who was still the vice president at the time. Although that statement did not meet the status of the 'program', after that, China successively introduced a number of military exhibition plans, including the construction of several large aircraft carriers, the expansion of naval strength, the equipping of the air force with fifth-generation fighters and strategic bombers, the expansion of the scale of the air force, the implementation of comprehensive military reform by the army, and the comprehensive improvement of the rapid combat capability of the troops. These initiatives, without exception, are directed at us. ”

Although Katsuto Dongji Valley looks down on Ono Tsukasa Pheasant, they all admire Ohno Tsukasa Pheasant.

Compared with the military, Ono Tsukasa Pheasant is much better at speaking, and he has a clear and well-organized thinking, and can point out the key points to attract the attention of others. This kind of talent not only dwarfs Dongji Gu Sheng and others, but also allows Xiang to grasp the situation more accurately.

In Ryohei Taniki, Onozuka's eloquence has a lot to do with his work experience after retiring.

When he started a business with Murakami Sadamasa, Ono Tsukasa was in charge of company promotion and product promotion, and he was a very good marketer, and his eloquence was naturally extraordinary.

"In addition to the policy of repression in foreign affairs, China's military preparations have never stopped." Ono Tsukasa glanced at Shunji Kiryu and asked the assistant to distribute the prepared documents to the participants. "According to the information we have now, it is very likely that China will start a war within the year."

As soon as this remark came out. There was an uproar in the meeting.

Tani Ryohei was a little surprised. While Murakami's attention was focused on Ono Tsukasa's pheasant. He glanced at him. Although after the creation of the NSA. The Ministry of Defense has also established the Defense and Security Intelligence Agency. But the intelligence agency is very small. The capacity is quite limited.

Looking at it, he was surprised to be surprised. Gu Shuliangping's heart was full of sinuses.

Toki Tanikatsu and Ono Tsuka Pheasant are in a competitive relationship, Minister Wei won't be so idiotic as to give up his "political capital" to the most threatening opponent, right?

It is certainly not the National Defense and Security Information Agency that provides local information.

Where did Ono Tsuka's information come from?

With this question, Tani Ryohei took the document handed by Shunji Kiryu and looked at it casually.

"Ohno-kun, this information of yours ......"

"Although some of the information has not been confirmed, most of it is credible enough. Gu Shujun should be able to confirm this. ”

Ryohei Tani raised his head, and when he looked at Tsukasa Onozuka, the other party was also looking at him.

"Ohno, let's get to the point." Murakami Sadamasa pulled the topic back.

Be sure to know the source of the information!

Gu Shu Liangping lowered his head and looked at the document in his hand.

"Let's start with the China Navy, as we all know, the China Navy poses the greatest threat to us." "The three large aircraft carriers that will start construction in 2025 were launched last month, and the outfitting work is progressing much faster than we expected, and it is expected to be completed within this year or early next year," said Ono Tsukasa Pheasant, who walked around the podium on the conference table. Because our four Zuihe-class aircraft carriers will be completed at the beginning of next year, we have every reason to believe that it will not wait until the beginning of next year to start a war. If the war starts this year, China will have three large aircraft carriers and one medium aircraft carrier, and we will have only two medium aircraft carriers, which is only one-third the strength of the China Navy. If we wait until next year to start the war, China will have only six large aircraft carriers and one medium aircraft carrier, while we have four large aircraft carriers and two medium aircraft carriers, which is 70% of China's strength. Because China must defend itself against India, the China Navy must maintain at least one carrier battle group in the South China Sea, and a maximum of three in the western Pacific. It is clear that an early strike is good for China, and a late fight is good for us. ”

"It's not just the Navy that will decide the winner."

When Takashima said this, Uesugi Tadashi glanced at him.

In fact, in our war with China, the importance of the air force was not military. Ohno Tsukasa Pheasant smiled faintly and said, "Looking at the strength of the Chinese Air Force, with the completion of the final test flights of the J16 heavy fighter known as the 'Thunder Dragon' and the J177 multi-role fighter known as the 'Swift Dragon' in January and March this year respectively, the China Air Force will definitely be equipped with these two fighters within the year, or have been equipped in small batches now." The H111 strategic bomber, known as the 'Thor,' flew last month, and will certainly be able to complete the finalized test flight within this year. Of course, in our battles with China, the purpose of strategic bombers is not very obvious, and the H99 equipped by the China Air Force is enough to perform the vast majority of strategic strike missions. Based on the information we have gained over the years, we have sufficient reason to believe that the strength of the China Air Force is no less than that of the US Air Force. After the outbreak of war, the China Air Force will enter the war as a striking force. Whether we can hold the airspace and control the airspace, I'm afraid even Takashima-kun is not completely sure, right? ”

Takashima Rinchi gritted his teeth and did not raise the bar with Ono Tsukasa Pheasant, because these words were not wrong.

"No matter how powerful the air force and navy of China are, they can only fight a maritime conflict like the East China Sea War with us!"

Ono Tsukasa Pheasant glanced at Nobu Sato, who was full of faces, and said with a smile: "The key is that Shina has an invincible army. ”

"Does Shina have the ability to land?"

"Of course there is, and it's the same as the traditional way of landing." Ono Tsukasa suddenly became extremely serious and said, "The focus of the reform of the Shina Army is not on the ground armored forces, but on the airborne forces. Sato-kun should know that in the old war and the peninsula war, the Chinese airborne troops wielded a very amazing combat effectiveness. During the Peninsula War, China attacked Jeju Island in advance and first dispatched airborne troops to capture Jeju Airport to open the way for the Marine Corps. Of course, Sato-kun would have argued that the Airborne Forces were only infantry and were no match for armored forces at all. It is true that, at least during the war on the peninsula, the Airborne Forces in China suffered extremely heavy losses when they fought against American armored forces. But one thing is for sure, China is arming the Airborne Forces with its most advanced technology and striving to create the first Airborne Armored Corps! ”

"Airborne armored troops!?" Shin Sato was startled.

Ono Tsuka: Nodding slightly, he said: "As early as a few years ago, to be precise, eight years ago, Shina made a substantial breakthrough in the field of new materials. Shortly after the end of the Korean War, China made significant achievements in the mass production process of high-strength alloys. What the specific results will be, we are not yet very clear, only one thing is certain, except for the construction of the attack aircraft codenamed Q9, China will use all high-strength alloys to build airborne combat vehicles. What is more noteworthy is that China has made a major breakthrough in electromagnetic gun technology. If the information we get is correct, China will definitely use electromagnetic cannons on new airborne combat vehicles. Of course, there is no reason why China should not use electrically driven equipment on the new airborne combat vehicles. As the commander of the army, Sato-kun should know how advanced a tank can be produced by combining these three technologies, right? ”

Sato's face became distorted. If Onozuka's words become a reality, all tanks and armored vehicles of the Japanese Army will be able to be sent to the History Museum.

The three commanders of the army were all speechless, and the conference room was much quieter.

After hesitating for a while, Ji Gu Sheng said: "Even so, it is impossible for Shina to replace weapons and equipment for the army within a few months, we ......"

"Will it take months? As long as there are some advanced preparations, China will be able to seize the initiative in the war and then win the war with relatively backward equipment. The United States, while equipping a large number of unmanned fighters, has not eliminated fourth-generation fighters. In the entire military system, advanced equipment is the finishing touch, not the whole thing! ”

was refuted mercilessly by Tsukasa Ono Pheasant, and Toki Tanikatsu looked a little angry.

"I don't think it's worth arguing at all." It was only at this time that Murakami Sadamasa came forward to calm the argument. "Armament build-up is only a necessary part of preparations for war, not the whole story. One thing is enough to be sure of China's intention to go to war, and in any case, China will not look at our alliance with India without any indication. For China, it would be ideal to defeat us or defeat India before we enter into an alliance with India. From a practical point of view, China has little reason to deal with India, and we will become the focus of China's attack. ”

After hearing these words, Tani Shu Ryohei knew that it was not Ono Tsuka Pheasant who was actively promoting the war, but Murakami Sadamasa.

Without asking, Tani Shuryohei's guess a few hours ago was not wrong, Murakami Sadamasa would not convene a meeting of the cabinet and all important members of the military department for no reason!

Japan is preparing for war, absolutely the most important intelligence! (To be continued, if you want to know how to know the future chapters, more,!) )
