Can You Make A Nuclear Weapons Too?
Chapter 47
“What happened?”
Upon arriving at the Joint Chiefs of Staff, I was immediately escorted to the command and control room.
Shouts were taking place here and there, and the defense minister was in an emergency call with the president for a while.
“It’s 9:10 am. A large number of multiple rocket launchers were fired from the ridge opposite the enemy camp, about 40 kilometers from Yeonpyeong Island.”
The person who answered the question was the head of the National Intelligence Service.
As if he had just arrived, his head was sweating profusely.
“Is there really no damage?”
“Fortunately, the anti-artillery radar developed by Jae-woo detected it immediately after firing, and in just a few seconds, a counter-munition was fired and intercepted all of them. By the way, North Korea seems to be a bit perplexed. After all, looking at the mobilization of coastal artillery.”
“Are you sure you succeeded in intercepting the shells as well?”
“Actually, I am in a state of shock because of it. Didn't I say that it was difficult to intercept the original shells?"
“It was, but the guidance system has been improved compared to the original plan.”
In fact, I was surprised to add.
You succeeded in intercepting the shells that you expected to be just a theory.
In such a situation, Choi In-bae should be given a big prize.
No, I'd say it's not an award issue, it's a situation where we need to have a serious conversation.
“By the way, how are we going to respond?”
I suddenly remembered that and asked.
Were we standing still while the enemy was firing?
Perhaps the answer came from the Minister of Defense.
“About 10 minutes after the incident, we also fired smart cannonballs at the enemy positions through a K-9 prototype vehicle temporarily deployed on Yeonpyeong Island. As a result, all of the enemy's coastal guns were annihilated, and I know that the multiple rocket launcher positions over the ridge were also devastated.”
“Did you use smart cannons?”
I never dreamed that things would turn out this way.
From HVP to Smart Cannon.
Isn't this really a place to prove the performance of the weapons that Jaewoo developed?
“The field screen is being transmitted.”
As he was in his deepest thoughts, an officer who was analyzing the situation at the scene pointed his hand at the large monitor.
As soon as the screen brightened, what appeared was thick smoke rising from the coastal artillery camp to the north across the sea.
A strange feeling passed through my back at the scene that was contrary to the original history.
“Wasn’t there another response from over there?”
“Not yet. However, your Excellency has ordered us to hit the origin first before launching the second provocation from the other side. So, in about five minutes, our side will fire again, and this time, the target will probably be the main base of the North 4th Corps Artillery Brigade.”
The situation became more serious than expected.
On the day of the second bombardment, the state goes beyond simple response.
In other words, the military and government are now even considering an escalation.
Damn it, isn't this the beginning of an all-out war between North and South Korea?
“Issue the firing order to the field commander.”
In the end, the order to fire was issued from the minister's mouth.
The order was sent directly to the commander of the Marine Corps, and then again via radio to the commander who was on standby at the scene.
Kugugung!
After a while, it was reported through the military's CCTV footage that five of the waiting K-9s were spitting fire one after another.
It was obviously the smart cannons that I developed that flew along with the huge gunpowder.
Although you can't see it from here, there will probably be a riot in the enemy 4th Corps Artillery Brigade in a few minutes.
[The army started the second bombardment. The number of shells fired is a total of thirty rounds [...]
Due to the media companies that started reporting the situation late, the TV was showing Yeonpyeong Island.
Looking at the screen alone, it is almost as if we were the ones who started the provocation.
At the very least, there was no urgency on the faces of the evacuated civilians.
“·················ogue.”
After a while, I looked at the clock for a moment.
About 30 minutes have passed since the last shelling.
Nevertheless, the absence of the enemy's response means that they are concerned about an escalation of war, and I only hope that they will properly grasp the reality.
“Minister!”
At that moment, the door to the control room opened and a lieutenant-level officer rushed in.
As if something urgent was about to happen, he gave only a formal greeting and handed a yellow piece of paper to the minister.
“This is an urgent message from the North. To prevent an escalation, we want to stop shelling each other.”
"Sigh······."
At those words, the entire control room let out a sigh of relief.
The same goes for the defense minister.
Contrary to his resolute response, it seems that he was also very nervous.
“Is there nothing wrong with managing director Jin? It must have been the first time I had seen it in action.”
The defense minister, who glanced at me, asked with an awkward smile.
For a while, I was immersed in my thoughts analyzing the causes of the twists in history, and I would be lying if I said I wasn't nervous.
Scratching his head, he speaks again.
“Actually, it was impossible for a war to be complete anyway.”
“……”
“If there had been more escalation here, we probably would not have stayed still in the United States, Russia and China. Besides, what kind of war would a country have when the war is not a children's game, and there is no rice to feed the people right now?"
He chuckled briefly and got up from his chair.
He let out a long sigh, as if worried about what had to be done in the future, shook his head and looked at me.
“Perhaps managing director Jin will suffer just as much as me for a while. So, be prepared in advance.”
“·················ogue.”
I looked at him with a puzzled mind.
The minister then raised his finger and pointed to the high-ranking officers who were talking on the phone somewhere.
“Half of the calls to the control room right now are to make sure we're not harmed. including the United States, Israel and the United Kingdom. At least to the United Arab Emirates.”
With those words, he turned his gaze back to the officers on the phone.
The contents of the calls that were then heard.
A long sigh blew out.
*******
[It turned out that the damage to the North was more serious than expected due to this bombardment.]
[Due to our counterattack, most of the coastal artillery in the north near Yeonpyeong Island was destroyed. In addition, the main base of the North 4th Corps Artillery Brigade, which is about 100 kilometers away from the coastal positions, was also reported to have suffered serious damage, and according to some sources, the number of casualties alone is estimated to be as high as 200.]
[The military announced that the cause of no damage on our side was the result of a new defense system construction project. The defense system, also called the HVP system, is newly developed by Jauthales.]
For a while, the shelling of Yeonpyeong Island made the most of the news.
Thanks to this, the public's interest in HVP has reached its peak.
Perhaps it was because it showed such a successful result, public opinion began to call for the early establishment of the HVP system, and the members of the National Assembly, who were initially negative, changed their attitude as if they had always been.
[North Korea has delivered a notice that this situation is the result of excessive loyalty of the 4th Corps commander. Whether this is true or not has not yet been revealed, but our government will demand a clear preventive measure against recurrence.]
As expected, North Korea started cutting its tail.
The 4th Corps commander who was in charge must have been purged by now.
Nevertheless, the government, emphasizing its commitment to preventing recurrence, eventually received a promise to defeat the multiple rocket launchers near the ceasefire line.
“Ttt, you’re using shallow numbers. Who doesn't know that they're afraid of the range of smart shells anyway and back off."
Perhaps this opportunity will bring about a huge change in North Korea's strategy.
It was a natural result because I experienced firsthand the performance of a smart bullet that flew a whopping 150 km and delivered precision strikes.
Perhaps they too may be enthusiastic about the development of a large-caliber multiple rocket launcher to extend the range for a while.
But does that make any sense?
Anyway, by the day the system is installed near the ceasefire line, the area will already become an impregnable fortress.
“Sir, this is a call from the Chief of Staff of the U.S. Navy.”
The defense minister's prophecy has come true.
Britain and Israel, including the US Department of Defense. And this is the tenth call from military officials in other friendly countries.
I've been avoiding it with the excuse of being busy, but I shouldn't be avoiding Jeffrey's phone calls.
[Long time no see, President Jeffrey.]
-Fortunately, you can call. My aide said he couldn't answer the phone, so I called myself.
[I'm sorry about that... I got a lot of calls from all over Hado due to this situation, so I had to turn off the phone for a while.]
-I understand. Because the shelling of Yeonpyeong Island was reported as a topic all over the world. Our army, who had been fussing about HVP for a while, is now in a riot, and other countries must have been terrified. So, by the way, shouldn't we be talking to each other soon?
[of course. I'm sorry, but can't we discuss it in a few days?
- Why, is there any problem?
[What is the problem? Actually, I will be visiting the United States as part of the business group of the Korea-US summit soon, and I was trying to visit the president at the time.]
-Oh oh! It's nice to hear that. Then let's have a serious conversation.
Jeffrey's voice rose to the top.
He must have made a promise, but he must have been anxious.
I wondered if other allies would demand the establishment of the system ahead of the United States.
But I'm not stupid either.
If I do that, a powerful shield will disappear, and there is no way I can make such a choice unless I am crazy.
- By the way, I have to prepare myself.
[What do you mean ready?]
- What would you like? I'm going to prepare to meet Mr. Jin.
It was something I wanted to say as a surprise.
I'm not some kind of president.
[If you're concerned about my safety, don't worry. The number of bodyguards accompanying them is also five.]
- Not because of the guard. It's meant to be shown externally.
[......]
-Actually, I am well aware of what Jaewoo went through a while ago. By the way, no one knows the physiology of the US military industry as well as I do. So the US Navy is going to send a direct warning.
[......]
******
August 15th.
Finally, the president went on a tour of the United States.
The number of business people accompanying them alone is a whopping 30.
The number of reporters who accompany them for coverage is no less than that.
“Director Hyunseung Jin.”
Among the reporters were also familiar figures.
Han Ji-yeon.
A reporter for the TBS news agency, and a person I have had a pretty close relationship with.
In fact, when it comes to jjambap, would it be reasonable to say that such a blue young chick is on this plane?
Perhaps it was the desk's decision considering her relationship with me.
“It’s been a while, a reporter.”
“Can I sit next to you for a moment?”
"Sure."(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)
She took advantage of the break for a moment and took a seat next to me.
I noticed a lot of things to ask.
But right now, I don't have much to say, so most of the conversation was just small talk.
“But aren’t you married?”
"Yeah?"
“You are quite old now. Besides, Chairman Jin Hyun-pil's age is also old, so it must have been a lot of reminders in the family, right?"
There was nothing to say about that part.
The moment he hesitated in embarrassment, fortunately, the chief of staff got on the plane and drove the reporters to one place.
"magneton! I'm sorry, but reporters, please go to your assigned seats now."
In the end, Han Ji-yeon, who was kicked out of her seat, went to find her place with a sullen expression.
After that, she heard an announcement asking her to turn off her cell phone and other electronic devices.
Suddenly my phone vibrated loudly.
"Huh?"
I checked the screen to see if it was a company, and an unknown number was stamped on it.
Normally, I would have just ignored it and moved on.
I felt a strange feeling, so I immediately walked towards the door.
“Can I talk to you for a moment?”
“Yes, sir, since you have not yet boarded the plane, you have plenty of time.”
She got the permission of the chief of staff and got out of the plane.
As soon as I pressed the call button, I heard a familiar voice.
-female! Mr Jean. Do you know who I am?
Alexei's voice was clear, unless you heard it wrong.
But why is he suddenly?
[what happened.]
-What's going on? Mr. Jean is on a business trip to America, so I called to say hello.
[··········.]
- I'm joking, I'm joking. Actually, I called because I have something to tell you.
[What do you mean?]
-Motorshichi. We, Russia, do not intend to object if Jae-woo takes over. So, by any chance, if negotiations come from the United States, never bow down.
I was momentarily confused.
When I asked what his intentions were, he answered with a smile.
- Acting President Vladimir Putin and Prime Minister are very interested in Mr. Jean. You can think of it as a kind of gift.
[··········.]
Can you make nuclear weapons too?
