Can You Make A Nuclear Weapons Too?

“Are you here?”

The company, which returned in a hurry, had already gathered key executives.

The first thing that caught my eye was Lim Hyo-sik, managing director of the Strategy Office, which is in charge of external information.

When their eyes met, he quickly got up from his seat and continued explaining.

“About 1 hour and 40 minutes before the current time, an earthquake wave was detected in Punggye-ri, Gilju-gun, North Hamgyong Province.”

“Is there any solid evidence that it was a nuclear test?”

“According to the news of the NIS, yes. The exact details will be confirmed when radionuclides are detected in about two days, but right now, in terms of waveform characteristics and sonar detection, we believe that a nuclear test is certain.”

“If the NIS judged that, it is highly likely to be true. But are there any chances of success?”

The eyes of the executives poured on me as I asked.

Expressions that say that my calm demeanor is surprising.

However, since the North Korean nuclear test was not so surprising to me, he casually folded his arms and answered the question from Executive Director Lim.

“Yes, I think there is a high possibility that it was successful considering the shape and size of the seismic wave.”

“It’s a success in the first experiment…”

I focused on that part.

Contrary to history, the first nuclear test was delayed.

However, being successful from the beginning is a bit stinky.

Besides, there were no prior indications this time, I wonder how that's possible.

“Anyway, we didn’t really know that in America, did we?”

“It seems so. The news is that the White House is now in an emergency meeting.”

The person who answered was Ahn.

The aspect of being once the head of the National Intelligence Service is revealed here.

He had dozens of documents in his hand, as if he had already gathered quite a lot of data through antennas that stretched out in all directions.

“Is that possible? How many US reconnaissance assets are monitoring Punggye-ri?”

“I was surprised by that too, but apparently there were no prior signs. By the way, I do have one hypothesis that I have come up with.”

“Tell me.”

He looked at him and nodded his head as he spoke.

He immediately took out a piece of paper he was holding, handed it to me and continued the conversation.

“Do you remember the other day when North Korea showed signs of a nuclear test in Punggye-ri, and then just shut down the tunnel?”

“Of course I remember.”

“Perhaps at that time, I think I had finished preparing in advance.”

“··································································································. Then the movement was a show for this day?”

“Rather than that, it would be more accurate to say that the experiment was stopped for some reason at the time. Then, when the actual experimental period approached, we secretly used the facility again.”

“But what about the import of nuclear material? No, aside from that, even if the tunnel preparations were already in place, it would have been difficult for the movement of moving personnel or the movement of other additional equipment to escape the surveillance.”

"I'm skeptical about that, too, but I think there's a good chance they made a passage from the inside of the tunnel to another place."

Representative Ahn held out another sheet of paper at the same time as he replied.

It looks like it was taken from a satellite.

After staring for a while, I noticed a round circle marked about ten kilometers from the tunnel and asked again.

“What is this mark?”

“There is a logger’s lodging and yard in Punggye-ri.”

“By the way, why did you mark it here?”

“It is very likely that nuclear material and additional equipment were brought into the mines through that place.”

“Then you mean you dug a tunnel from here?”

“In the end, that’s what it is.”

“What a nonsense… the entire ground here is granite. You said you dug 10 kilometers in a place like that? Even while deceiving the eyes of the reconnaissance assets? Does common sense make it possible?”

At those words, Ahn's lips twisted.

As soon as he looked at him with his narrowed eyes, he spoke again.

“I’m sorry, but it’s difficult to understand North Korea with our common sense.”

“·················ogue.”

Unable to respond, he shook his head.

Seriously, was it once or twice that they did something beyond common sense?

Just looking at the number of undisclosed tunnels stretching southward makes sense.

Anyway, what is the reason why the Blue House and the military have been quiet until now?

In a situation where it would have been normal if my phone had already rang a few times if it had been normal.

“The Blue House seems to be waiting for a response from the United States. If there is a countermeasure from that side, we will also make a gesture.”

The words of CEO Kim Young-gi, which he heard at the same time, resolved the doubts.

It was like he was looking at my expression the whole time.

I looked at the watch for a moment and got up again.

“If that’s the case, isn’t it meaningless to gather around like this? You just leave work today.”

“In this situation?”

One of the executives implicitly objected.

It's as if I'm not at all comfortable leaving my seat in this kind of situation.

But what does it mean that we are killing time in a situation where the US has not yet responded to anything?

“The response from the White House will probably come at the earliest, maybe tomorrow. They, too, will need time to come up with measures. So there is no need to waste any energy.”

“But, in case you don’t know, shouldn’t we have to wait?”

The midfielder looked restless until the very end.

As soon as I saw it, the thought that crossed my mind is that this is why the habit is scary.

It is the yoke of the people of this country, who must be very nervous on the day they hear news from North Korea.

“As I said, the reaction of the United States is unlikely to come within today.”

“I don’t know. Even an urgent statement that the United States will bomb North Korea.”

It was only after hearing those words that I realized the underlying reason for the executive's nervousness.

possibility of war.

that's what i was afraid of

In fact, even if there is a war, one day, the foundation that has been built up until now will be completely destroyed, so it is possible to feel fearful.

“Well, I think the chance of bombing is slim.”

“·················ogue.”

“I don’t think this administration will implement what the former US administration, which was not hesitant in war, did not do it. Besides, right now, we are stuck in the US, Korea, or Iraq. Ignoring that reality and bombing it is not an easy decision.”

“·················ogue.”

“If the situation worsens and a large-scale conflict occurs, another battlefield will arise in Asia, and it is questionable whether the United States will carry such a risk at this time.”

“·················ogue.”

The executive scratched his head at those words.

It's like I'm finally feeling relieved.

I let out a laugh and was about to get up again, but Secretary Kim hurriedly ran into the conference room.

"President! The discourse was released in the United States.”

Unexpectedly, the reaction of the United States, which was quicker than expected, instantly created tension.

Contrary to my rant, I really want to conduct bombing.

However, the TV screen, which was soon lit up by Secretary Kim, was pouring out discourses that reproduce history.

[President Obama made a statement at the White House a little while ago. It is said that North Korea's nuclear development is expected to implement strong sanctions through international cooperation, along with criticism that it is an unacceptable act.]

"Hmm······."

A little disappointment followed.

History is changing anyway.

It is true that I thought that there would be some change in this part as well.

“Let’s go to work.”

That doesn't mean we want war.

Frankly, what is war in the same situation now.

Still, the Chinese have their eyes wide open and have a desire to occupy North Korea.

Considering the Chinese people who always insist that the area north of the Cheongcheon River is their own land, it is not true that it is unreasonable to actually wage a war now.

“If there is a war, it will be a matter of time until North Korea is restored, but that is the problem.”

The possibility that the Chinese will rush to eat North Korea at that opportunity.

Of course, the situation will be different depending on how Russia comes out, but will Russia pay attention to the country where the war with the United States happened anyway?

‘Besides, if you start with a strategy of negotiating after taking over, it’s a headache.’

In that case, there is a high possibility that the United States will also agree to the negotiation because it is concerned about a world war.

Frankly, the United States, which cannot step out of Iraq right now, will not be able to easily reject China's proposal to share the land at an appropriate level.

“Twitter.”

It wasn't too much of an imagination.

Actually, the Chinese guys have made such a proposal to the US.

Recognize unification, but let's create a buffer zone by managing the area north of the Cheongcheon River.

When I first found out about it, I literally felt the blood rushing up.

Who the hell does it mean that people cut off other people's land as they please?

‘It is not for nothing that China is the enemy of the millennium. By the way, in this situation, the introduction of the ascending stage interception system should be hastened, but I don't know how the government will come out.'

In fact, that's exactly what I believed in.

Even if North Korea has perfect nuclear weapons and delivery means, we have already developed the means to neutralize them.

It will take some time as the electrification has not been progressed yet, but will that be a problem?

After all, it will take at least six more years for North Korea to miniaturize its nuclear weapons and mount them on missiles.

'Does that mean that the opportunity to clean up North Korea hasn't completely disappeared yet?'

******

[U.S. President Obama said in a phone call with the Chinese prime minister this morning that the two countries had reached an agreement on sanctions against North Korea. This will allow sanctions against companies in China that support North Korea to begin in earnest.]

A few days later, it was reported that China, which had been watching for a while, had finally agreed to the sanctions plan.

But I am the only one who knows that the effectiveness is close to zero.

In particular, when it comes to sanctions on petroleum products and food, which have a huge impact, I was even more shaken because I knew that China would do some trickery.

[Our government has decided to rush to secure military reconnaissance assets in preparation for the North Korean nuclear threat. In addition, early securing of the intercept system in the ascending stage is also...]

The Korean government's response also did not deviate from the expected range.

Well, in our current situation, there are limits to what we can do.

Of course, the transfer of OPCON is taking place, but it is not yet a complete transfer.

No, even if there is an OPCON, arbitrary warfare is still unreasonable because of China, so it may be a natural response.

[The government has decided to promote the construction of an integrated logistics support ship this morning. The total number of ships is expected to be about 4, and the project cost is known to reach up to several trillion won.]

A few days later, the government again hinted at the early execution of the newly established mid-term defense plan in the name of reassuring the people.

In addition to the additional construction of up to six Yi Sun-sin-class destroyers, the improvement of the existing Yi Sun-sin-class is promoted.

And the construction of as many as four integrated logistics support ships.

Perhaps the president was intending to pass the naval power augmentation project, which had been put off as an opportunity, at once.

[Does excessive military spending make sense in this economic crisis?]

[Then, are you saying we should stay still in the field that North Korea is threatening with nuclear weapons?]

On TV, discussions continued on the government's measures day after day.(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

The funny thing is that opposing opinions are popping up at the same time regardless of whether they are male or female.

In particular, Lee Yong-jae, who was a core member of the ruling party, but is now almost treated as trash, was particularly serious, and he mobilized the media every day to criticize the government's policies as if he was trying to use this opportunity as a spearhead for revival.

[Even the ruling party must know how to criticize the president's wrong policies. According to what you hear, Jin Hyun-seung, chairman of the Jaewoo Group, is the real powerhouse of this country, but everyone knows that it's not just nonsense, right?]

“Lee Yong-jae. It is said that he came from a representative family of private chaebol. There are also rumors that some of the country's leading newspapers have close ties to him.”

Director Kim Young-gi, who was watching the news together, implicitly gave information about Lee Yong-jae's family.

Apart from the fact that he came from a private school, even a newspaper company.

Somehow, I thought that there seemed to be a lot of beliefs, and I think that was the reason.

“Which newspaper is behind him?”

“The Hanseo Ilbo and the Daeil Ilbo are representative.”

“It's a pretty traditional place.”

“These are places that have survived like hardships. Well, that's not going to be the case. After all, those newspapers, like Lee Yong-jae, are heavily supported by Japanese sources.”

"Ttt, even if you step on it like that..."

I sighed.

I want to know how long Japan's deep-rooted involvement in this country will last.

Is it possible after war?

So, will they admit it only after the country has been completely trampled on?

“I don’t know anything else, but one thing seems certain. Politics is like a drug. When you see Lee Yong-jae, you can feel that.”

Director Kim Young-gi let out a continuous sigh.

Politics is like a drug.

To this day, those words resonate with me.

“By the way, I think we should do something at this point too.”

I also agreed with that.

Now they're starting to produce even fake news.

I am the leader of this government.

Well, from a certain point of view, I can't really say that it's wrong.

Wouldn't that be seen as a person holding the president in his hand and waving it?

“It should be.”

If we remain silent like this, the lie will soon turn into a truth.

If we do not move now, there is a high possibility that the government and even myself will be in a difficult situation in the future.

“Do you have any thoughts in mind?”

“First, contact the PR office and ask them to contact the editorial staff of each media company.”

The method I chose was to return their method.

If they use the press, I will use it too.

After all, the media is an organization driven by the logic of money.

Their mistake is that they forget that I have the advantage in the logic of the money.

‘Yeah, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to clean up the people who would rather organize them on this occasion.’
