Chapter 501 The Breath of the Future

The problem of food and lodging for nearly 10,000 people is not easy to solve. Fortunately, each ship carries its own food, which is enough for them to eat for several months. Anyway, if they don't finish the food, they will definitely take it back.

Basically, the weapons of the American prisoners were confiscated, and the weapons on the ship could not be used. They couldn't cause trouble even if they wanted to.

The weapons and equipment on the ship cannot be repaired without being returned to the factory for overhaul.

The aircraft carrier that turned into a dead fish last time is still vivid in my mind. Now that aircraft carrier is almost repaired, and now there is an entire aircraft carrier fleet to be repaired. The repair shop is not short of orders, but the American The maintenance costs are probably quite high.

Falcon International did not mistreat them. They still eat whatever they were supposed to eat before. The cooks are still the same cooks, but they have less freedom.

However, Falcon International's management is not strict, and they are allowed to come to the deck every day to relax, as long as they don't cause trouble, and don't make any moves that would misunderstand "people".

The "surveillance officers" flying over the battleship are not real people. If you do anything illegal, they will really shoot.

When they seized control of the battleship, American soldiers had seen the "play by the rules" scene of smart weapons. Anyone holding a gun would be targeted and alerted, and as soon as the muzzle of the gun moved, he would be immediately beaten into a sieve. There is no room for negotiation.

You can accuse them of being inhumane, because they are not human in the first place, but you cannot accuse them of deliberately killing people, because the surrender message has been shouted many times before.

Human soldiers may hesitate, but smart weapons will not hesitate. It is you who do not follow the rules, and there is clear combat video as evidence.

It's the same now, but the weapons on the drone have been replaced by non-lethal weapons. After all, they are now guarding prisoners, not in combat mode.

Although no one can die from being attacked by current weapons, no one wants to take a hit, because whether it is a tranquilizer bomb or an electric shock bomb, it will make you unconscious immediately, and then someone will come and drag you away.

The people on the ship don't know what happened after they were towed away. Although there are many speculations, everyone who came back said everything was fine and there were no signs of abuse on their bodies. They just behaved honestly from now on. no.

On the one hand, Falcon International is very active, and that is to announce the living conditions of prisoners of war to the outside world. It also provides some communication equipment every day to allow prisoners of war on board to contact their families.

The purpose of disclosing living conditions to the outside world is to prevent anyone from spreading rumors that Falcon International mistreats prisoners of war, which is detrimental to the development of the company and affects the company's international reputation. If we want to grow and develop, we must not have such a negative impact.

There is still news in this area. If we don't do this, there will definitely be overwhelming negative news. The United States can't start from the military, but it doesn't mean that it can't start from other places.

The only thing is that the captives were a little embarrassed during the filming process. After all, the majestic American aircraft carrier fleet became their captives. It was so embarrassing to have to broadcast it.

As for allowing the captives to contact their families, well, this is purely to show Falcon International's humanistic care.

After the United States and Falcon International entered the negotiation process, all walks of life in the world are waiting for the outcome of the negotiations. Although the details of the negotiations are not disclosed to the public, you can tell by seeing the black faces of the American negotiators coming out of the venue after the negotiations every day. The United States has suffered a big loss this time.

If it is a negotiation between countries, there will definitely be some time to wait, but the negotiation between a private company and the country is much faster, especially when the private company takes the initiative.

The ashes of prisoners of war and those who died in war can be handed over to the United States for free. After all, Falcon International is not a terrorist organization and will not ask for ransom. Moreover, Falcon International is currently contracting the coastal defense of the Dansu Kingdom and is considered the navy of the Dansu Kingdom, so the transfer of prisoners of war is also State behavior.

It's just that Falcon International is a private company after all. This issue of interests cannot be compromised. People can take it away, forget about the warships, and the warships are indeed the spoils of this war.

At first, the United States would never agree. Although these warships have already been laid down and many electronic equipment have been damaged to varying degrees, they are still world-class warships, not to mention there is an aircraft carrier here. Once repaired, they will be restored. It is a majestic aircraft carrier fleet.

But Falcon International also disagrees. Otherwise, you can pay to redeem the prisoners of war and warships. As an essentially private company, it says that paying money can solve all problems.

It would be nice if I could hand over the prisoners of war to you for free. I also want to get the warship for free, but what will Falcon International do with the expenses incurred by this war?

Moreover, not everyone in the United States is looking forward to the return of these warships, so they also make small moves internally.

Although it is said to be a world-class warship, it has actually been in service for a long time. Moreover, the latest warship of a certain country is like dumplings. The technological gap with the US Navy is rapidly narrowing. The "old-fashioned" warships of the United States can no longer widen the technological generation gap. , so they urgently need new battleships.

The Navy's reasons are very good. They are not prepared to bear all the blame for the defeat. Their reason is that these warships are too old, so they cannot prevent Falcon International's EMP attack, so we need new warships.

Arms dealers and shipyards also shouted loudly, saying that if they don't build new warships, so and so will catch up, so it is better not to spend money to buy long-term warships, and it is the last word to invest money to build new ones quickly.

In fact, in the final analysis, it is still about money. Many arms dealers in the United States are private companies, and they are not enough to eat at home. The money for the new 30-year shipbuilding plan has not yet been funded, so how can there be money to buy old warships.

Face can be regained later. Think carefully about how to defend against Falcon International's super-powerful EMP weapons. With new battleships and more powerful force, just go for revenge.

The answer they gave in their analysis was that the technology of the warships was not advanced enough, which was why they had such a result. So they lobbied Congress and the president from all aspects, and they just said: "Hey, take the money to upgrade the equipment, and add another 500 million yuan." , you will be stronger!"

Therefore, with the joint efforts of domestic and foreign countries, the American negotiating team finally signed a series of conditions.

The signing of the final agreement shocked the outside world. The United States, which had once shocked the world, actually signed such an agreement with a private security company. This was something that had never been imagined before.

Especially after the United States defeated the other pole of the world at the end of the last century and became the only superpower in the world, no one would have imagined that this day would come.

Is this the so-called prosperity and decline? But it has not been thirty years since the United States became the world's only superpower.

Or is this what the earth will look like in the future?

After all, we are only a little over a month away from the legendary future of 2020.

And this incident has also taught other countries a lesson. Although the weapons-only theory is not 100% correct, with the development of science and technology, the scientific and technological content of weapons is becoming more and more important. This is a fact that cannot be concealed.

Take this incident as an example. If the radar on the US ship had not been able to detect the ambush of the deep-sea fleet in advance, the fleet's fire control radar could not have locked the missiles launched by the deep-sea fleet well, and various decoys could not have deceived the missiles flying over. , EMP defense cannot prevent the EMP attack of the deep sea fleet, and the US aircraft carrier fleet will not become like that.

If the technological level of the U.S. aircraft carrier fleet was similar to that of the Falcon International Deep Sea Fleet at that time, it is really not certain who would fight whom. Maybe the United States could continue to walk sideways on the sea.

Therefore, although many countries say they don't want it, they secretly increase investment in this area and start an overt or covert arms race.

Although there have been many arms races in history, this is the first time we have seen an arms race caused by private companies developing too fast and using more force than the state, putting tremendous pressure on many countries.

This is how the future of science and technology will come. If you don't develop your own economy and technology well, you will always go out to cause trouble. If others surpass you, then you will have to chase after you.
