Can You Make A Nuclear Weapons Too?
Chapter 73
Follow me!
I woke up to the phone ringing from dawn.
The sender was Oh Jung-geun, Minister of National Defense.
He cleared his throat and pressed the call button, and an excited voice came from the other side.
-I'm sorry since early in the morning, but the North Korean high-speed boat went south again.
jump!
I hurriedly got out of bed in shock.
The first thing that came to mind was the consequences of what happened afterwards.
At the same time as the thought, the minister's words continued again.
-And exactly three shells smashed all three!
“············Three ships?”
-Yeah, the whole fleet that came over was finished. Damn you, I stomped on a mine in the car waiting for another taunt. Anyway, with this incident, that damn North Korean high-speed boat won't even dare to venture out to the west coast anymore. I wondered if I could properly close the eyes of our dead soldiers at some point...
The minister was very excited about the situation.
Seriously, even for me, the sacrifices of our soldiers have always been like a thorn in my neck.
Although I was worried about the future, the old congestion went down as well.
“What is the North’s response?”
- Oddly enough, there is no movement.
It was probably a reaction from fear of escalation.
By the way, didn't he say that he would strike the entire coastal base this time if the North provokes again?
It's a bit odd that there's nothing to say about him.
“Did you also hit the coastal bases in the North?”
-Originally, it was planned, but the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff strongly objected.
For a moment, my head went numb.
If the Minister disapproved, I don't know why, Chairman Lee Dong-wook of the Joint Chiefs of Staff
Wasn't he a person who had a firm belief in retaliation more than anyone else?
'Something else I don't know is happening.'
-It's a pity, but with this incident, revenge for the 1st Battle of Yeonpyeong has been made clear, so we have to be satisfied with this for now. For details, there will be a briefing from the Ministry of National Defense soon, so please refer to the news and come to the government building soon.
The call ended with that.
When I turned on the TV urgently to wake up my body, which had not yet returned, all channels were already covering the incident.
[This morning, the North Korean army made another provocation in the sea near Baengnyeong Island. Fortunately, this time, there is no damage to our military, and we have completely destroyed three North Korean high-speed boats that were attempting provocation.]
The reporter was particularly excited.
It seems that the focus is on the outcome rather than the essence of the event.
I turned the channel just in case, but in other places, the focus of the news was only on our side's victory.
‘No one is interested in what they were thinking of when they carried out the provocation again.’
Actually, that's what I was most curious about.
Such frequent provocations are more likely to put them in a corner.
Their attitude was completely incomprehensible.
[This seems to be able to appease the spirits of my colleagues a little bit.]
As his thoughts deepened, a familiar face appeared on the TV.
Captain Yoon Tae-hwan, a victim and party to the First Naval War.
It seemed that an interview with him at a fast-paced broadcasting station was in progress.
[According to the military announcement, it is said that with this, the North Korean military will no longer be able to make provocations on land or at sea.]
The reporter ended the interview with a remark that raised the public's anxiety.
The last glance at Captain Yoon Tae-hwan's face showed a smile he had never seen before.
I wondered if it was even possible to completely shake off the trauma, but it was a feeling that I was a little freed from the burden of feeling on my dead comrades.
**********
[The United States has warned that it will no longer stand by North Korea's provocations. In addition, if North Korea proceeds with further provocations, it has been declared that the US military may also take retaliation this time.]
It was only a few days later that the aftermath of the incident struck.
Although the North Korean side suffered a great deal of damage, the excessively frequent provocations still touched the heart of the United States, thanks to which the ROK-U.S. Combined Forces Command immediately announced its intention to deploy two carriers on the Korean Peninsula along with an announcement of its position.
[Our government is cautious about US intervention.]
The Blue House immediately expressed concern over the hard-line US measures.
Words are intervening, which means that they may soon launch an active bombardment.
In that case, a real all-out war could happen, so the government tried to persuade the United States by mobilizing all channels.
[The Japanese Cabinet has issued a statement that it actively supports the US response. In addition, we have informed you that our intention is to respond to the situation based on strong triangular cooperation between the United States, South Korea and Japan.]
“You’re being pissed off.”
Abusive language was inadvertently spit on the news of the Japanese side's reaction.
Vice President Kim Young-gi's gaze at the moment.
As I ruffled his hair, he smiled faintly.
“Recently, they say that far-right groups are gaining ground in Japanese politics. They are in a position where they want more tension between us and North Korea, so I understand why they are so excited.”
Come to think of it, I think it was around this time when the Japanese right wing began to gain power in earnest.
Of course, even before that, Japan's political sphere itself was a playground for far-right groups, but it was still a situation where people around were noticing.
It must have been around this time that they completely ignored their surroundings and came to the fore.
“I think there is a possibility that the US will really bombard, but what do you think, Vice President?”
“It cannot be ruled out. Isn't that why the Blue House has mobilized all sorts of routes to step out now?"
“There must be quite a few anti-war opponents in Congress, wouldn’t it be better to attack them?”
“I was probably the first to run to them. As our government, we would know that it is more effective to contact the Democrats and Chi-Chinese lawmakers and the Republican Party first than directly dealing with the current administration of the United States, which is focused on Japan.”
Vice President Kim repeated hopeful words.
Even so, anxiety that does not go away easily.
It was not because of the fear of war itself, but because of the fact that the country was not yet able to deal with the aftermath of the war.
If an all-out war really breaks out in this state, then the country will be divided into quarters due to post-war treatment by foreign forces, shouldn't that be avoided?
“You don't have to worry too much. War on the Korean Peninsula is not something that the United States can easily decide on. Moreover, North Korea is not in a state of lowering its tail right now.”
That was a little reassuring.
It is said that North Korea is not making any further provocations even though it has lost three high-speed boats.
Thanks to that, it's a pity that the situation is going to end as it is, but if it was meant to go to the end, the US bombing would have already become a fact.
“In this case, we are very fortunate that our military did not hit the North Korean coastal base.”
“It is said that Chairman Lee Dong-wook of the Joint Chiefs of Staff at the time objected.”
"Ah! That's exactly what I wanted to ask. Originally, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff also supported the principle that if North Korea provokes again, it would strike the point. But why did you suddenly change your policy?”
“It was actually… it seems that he received information from the new deputy commander of the ROK-US Combined Forces Command. The U.S. is looking for opportunities with frequent North Korean provocations. Isn't preemptive bombing even being mentioned within the US government due to the nuclear development issue? It seems that they decided that the United States could really bombard us if we took an active role in that field, but looking at the attitude of the United States now, it was the right decision.”
"Hmm······."
“By the way, what I don’t understand is the attitude of North Korea.”
Vice President Kim continued.
I glanced at him and there was a pretty serious expression on his face.
“What do you mean?”
“They must have known that we had installed artillery on Baengnyeong Island. And it wouldn't have been difficult to infer that it was a long-range precision artillery system using smart shells. In that situation, why did you carry out an unreasonable provocation again?”
Actually, that was the part I was most curious about.
With their intelligence, they would have already noticed enough that they had installed a long-range precision artillery system on Baengnyeong Island.
Yet, instead of being careful, the reason why he ran like a moth.
“...and so is he.”
Moreover, they would have known better that the situation was unfavorable to them.
As Vice President Kim said, nuclear development could make it a target for the US at any time.
Still, do you continue to attack like this?
This is the part that is incomprehensible to common sense.
‘What the hell do you have?’
“Anyway, I think the Korean Peninsula will be a little quieter for the time being if only the U.S. talks well. Now we have realized that our response is firm on land as well as at sea.”
Executive Director Kim Young-gi stood up from his seat with an expression that seemed to be relieved.
It seems that the form of taking the suit is going out somewhere.
“Do you have any appointments?”
"Hmm······."
Vice-President Kim Young-gi looked at me with a sudden look.
It's as if all of this is because of you.
Unsurprisingly, from his mouth soon a long sigh and complaints poured out.
“I don’t want to say that the president appointed me as the final manager for the normalization of Ssangwoong Motors, so I’m in a situation where I can’t even eat lunch properly.”
I had nothing to say about that.
The reality is that no matter how professional managers are promoted, group-level involvement is inevitable until normalization.
Among them, I was in a situation where I entrusted Ssang-woong to Vice President Kim Young-gi and CEO Yoon for the Daeyu Truck.
“Then let’s go together.”
“Do you want to go on a local inspection together?”
Vice President Kim asked with round eyes.
“Anyway, it’s time for me to go on-site inspection. I have some things to pass on. We just have lunch there.”
**********
“Welcome, Chairman.”
The new CEO of Ssangwoong Motors was already on standby at the Pyeongtaek plant when they arrived.
He's not named Geometry.
He was once the managing director of gear car development, and he was a dominant position in the commercial vehicle field, starting as an engineer and moving up to managing director.
"Nice to meet you. My name is Jiwook Choi, in charge of new car development.”
Director Choi Ji-wook was also no ordinary person.
He has worked for a whopping 15 years at the Institute of Automotive Design in Italy, so he has a sense of excellence.
At one time, Germany's Mercedes-Benz had also promoted recruitment, but in the end, Hyun-cheol's persistent invitation could not be overcome and he made a nest in Ssang-woong.
“Let’s talk while we eat.”
People rushed out to guide them at those words.
It's like taking me to a restaurant I know somewhere.
However, the restaurant I chose was a cafeteria on the other side of the factory, and we ended up serving it to the factory employees and using the leftovers to make a meal.
“Honestly, the possibility of revival is close to zero with only the vehicles currently being produced.”
It was after the meal was finished to some extent that I took the first luck.
It was a late lunch, so we were the only ones occupied in the spacious restaurant.
All of a sudden, the whole place became quiet, and all eyes focused on my lips.
“For this reason, the group plans to invest about 400 billion won in new car development over the next two years.”
In fact, 400 billion was not a small amount.
A level that can introduce at least two new models.
The CEO was embarrassed by my attitude to develop two new models in a short time.
“How about developing only one new model for now? Among the existing products, there are still one or two popular models, so the loss does not seem to increase significantly.”
“Of course, I know the risks are great. In particular, considering Ssangwoong's dominance in the market, it is also true that it is impossible to know how many years it will take to recover. However, if we continue to stick to the existing model, which is said to be boring because we are not used to it, Ssangwoong's stagnation will become steeper."(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)
“·················ogue.”
The president was silent about that.
No, the smile I saw at first glance was rather a little excited.
In fact, he could work on development regardless of money, so there would be no reason to dissuade him.
Whoops.
I looked at Secretary Kim at that point.
Then she pulled out a large wad of paper from her bag she was holding and immediately laid it out on the table.
“This is a design format that we want Ssangwoong to use as a concept in the future.”
“Design format?”
Director Choi Ji-wook was the first to respond to that.
In the future, it is only natural that he will be responsible for the area he will be responsible for.
I was afraid he might be offended by my attitude of violating it, but fortunately, he glanced around at the drawing with his eyes shining.
“It’s an RV.”
“Because Ssangwoong’s main focus was probably there.”
“Isn’t this design unusual?”
Contrary to fears, Choi Ji-wook spit out a lot of exasperation.
After all, the overall design itself is different from the existing mainstream styles.
In particular, the long and thin headlights and the large and shiny radiator grill that contrasts with it.
And although the body line, which is often reminiscent of a sports car, is quite futuristic, it would have attracted more curiosity because it was a design that did not feel burdened.
“Well, this time, we are going to start developing a new engine, so you need to prepare.”
While the admiration of the people continued, he hurriedly threw words.
As if surprised, the eyes of the CEO and Choi Ji-wook flashed back to me, and I handed them the materials I received from Secretary Kim again.
“This is a detailed guide to improving engine blueprints and parts materials. The development period is one year. Except for the crankshaft makers among the parts makers, all of them will be procured through existing companies.”
“Why the crankshaft…….”
“In the case of a new engine to be developed this time, it will be difficult to cope with wear resistance with existing materials. Because of that, I plan to use the ones from the companies I selected in the future.”
After saying that, he got up from his seat.
In my mind, I wanted to exchange opinions about normalization as much as possible, but the afternoon schedule was left.
It was because he thought it would be too tight to keep his promise if he wasn't in a hurry.
Follow me!
As I was about to get into the car, my phone in my pocket cried.
The sender is the Director of the National Intelligence Service.
There was a passing moment, so when I calculated the date, Putin's visit to Korea was just around the corner.
“Finally he is coming.”
