Great Power Technology

Western Pacific, Yongxia Island.

The first phase of construction of the "Great Wall on the Sea" project has been completed. After several months of round-the-clock efforts by thousands of people and dozens of large-scale engineering equipment, the first indestructible fortress has finally been erected on the island.

This fortress is entirely composed of a seven-layer structure of reactive armor, high-strength concrete, steel plates, star rock heat-absorbing layers, steel plates, mud and sand shock-absorbing layers, and steel plates. The thickness of the outer wall reaches an astonishing 3.6 meters, which can withstand the world's most dangerous All ground-penetrating bombs, armor-piercing bombs and precision-guided bomb attacks, and even in extreme cases, the sight port can be fully closed to withstand large-scale, saturated thermobaric bomb attacks.

At the same time, the fortress is also equipped with two ultra-high-power electromagnetic guns and four ultra-high-power laser anti-missile systems. Combined with airborne early warning aircraft, satellite data links and shore-based radars, the overall radiation range can reach nearly 600 kilometers.

And this range has almost reached the farthest early warning range of the aircraft carrier battle group.

It can be said that this fortress is the largest, most defensive, and most frontier deterrent ever built in human history. The moment it was built, the balance of the situation in the entire Western Pacific tilted towards China. A lot.

Today is the first day of complete completion of the fortress. The electromagnetic gun has just been tested. At this time, the cooling system in the fortress is running wildly. In just a few seconds, the high-temperature air is completely discharged and the internal temperature is lowered to 40 degrees. the following.

However, this is only the temperature under low-intensity test firing. If it faces high-density and high-intensity work in the future, the temperature inside the fortress may even rise to nearly 100 degrees.

At such a temperature, no one could come out of the fortress alive, but fortunately, this fortress was not intended to let living people in.

This is a split-design fortress. Its real center is not inside the fortress, but is unified in the Yongxia Island command center.

Through remote control from the command center, this fortress can flexibly attack all identified sea and air targets, and can intercept up to 40 missiles within 600 kilometers at the same time.

At this time, in the command center, the team responsible for the control of the "Beacon Tower No. 1" fortress was nervously conducting a laser anti-missile interception test. Under their control, the four sets of laser anti-missile systems in the fortress were used in an extremely complex manner. The algorithm is performing simulation work. A system does not just track one missile, but uses the most efficient overall method to interleave tracking of all incoming missiles.

The exercise has been going on for nearly half an hour. The anti-missile system has withstood three waves of imaginary attacks. The bright spots on the screen disappeared one by one. The disappearance of each bright spot means the explosion of an incoming missile, but in the last wave there were nearly 120 missiles. Under the saturation attack of missiles, the fortress finally fell.

"Huh... there's nothing I can do. At this point, I've basically reached my limit."

The operator in the control room took off his headphones, gently pushed open the operation panel, and sighed.

The soldier on the side nodded slightly and replied:

"We have done a good job. The maximum number of simultaneous interceptions has reached 56, and the success rate has basically reached 100%. This has far exceeded our design standards."

"If the other side really throws more than a hundred missiles like we practiced, then we don't have to think about how to intercept them. We can directly activate the defense mode to resist the wave. After defeating the reactive armor, we can rely solely on structural strength. At least it can carry a few hundred rounds."

"It's not difficult to interrupt our firepower, but it's not that simple to really defeat us completely."

After hearing his words, the operator frowned slightly, stood up from the chair and said:

"Such an extreme situation should not occur. According to previous predictions, this possible conflict should mainly focus on the air-to-air domain, and large-scale naval battles will not occur yet."

"The most important thing we have to do is to guard the Yongxia Island Airport and slow down their support and supply as much as possible, forcing their aircraft carrier formations to distance themselves, thereby reducing air pressure."

"Based on this judgment, I feel it is possible that we may have less pressure in the early stage, but once we open fire, it will inevitably become the most brutal area."

The soldier hummed, and after pondering for a moment, he answered:

"It's possible. The strategic position of Yongxia Island is too important. If it is lost here, our first island chain will basically be lost."

The operator walked up behind him and patted his shoulder, beckoning him to go out with him. Then, in the open space outside the command headquarters, after the two of them lit cigarettes, he said:

"Seriously, do you think there will really be a fight this time?"

The soldier was stunned for a moment, and shook his head in a daze.

"I haven't thought about this problem... Anyway, since I came to Yongxia Island, all my tasks and training have been prepared according to combat standards. Fighting or not... it makes no difference to me."

"No difference?"

The operator smiled and continued to ask:

"How come there is no difference? After all, there is a difference between war and exercises. People will die in war... Don't look at the calm situation now. If there is a war, our place will be the whirlpool in the center of the battlefield. Are you not afraid of death? "

Hearing his words, the soldier took a deep breath of cigarette and then replied:

"Afraid, how can we not be afraid? But what can we do? People are bullying us, how can we hide?"

"Squad leader, I'm not a new recruit on the first day. My mental quality is not that bad. I won't be hesitant at this time."

"I remember that on the first day I joined the army, our squad leader told me that my group of soldiers might really go to war."

"He said this so many times that my ears got calluses. I used to find it annoying."

"What now? Isn't this coming?"

"It's just a war... Don't say we are well-equipped now. I was not afraid before when the equipment was poor."

"A true man, just die when you die. What is there to be afraid of?"

The operator's expression moved slightly. He looked up at the setting sun in the distance, exhaled a puff of smoke with some emotion, and then said:

"Originally, I was thinking of doing some psychological construction for you alone, but in the end it turned out that you were doing some psychological construction for me... Okay, as long as you have this idea."

"We have the responsibility to defend our territory. If there is a fight, we will definitely not be able to escape. However, even if we cannot escape, we will have to bite off a piece of flesh for them."

"It's just a pity that our fortress has been built for so long and we still haven't gotten along well with it. Maybe it will be gone soon."

Hearing this, the soldier chuckled and replied:

"That's not necessarily true. What if we can resist? If the first island chain really can resist, then we will have to go sideways from now on."

"Walk sideways with a hammer! Don't seek hegemony, don't seek hegemony! How many times have I emphasized this to you, and yet you have completely forgotten it?"

"Then that's all I said...Okay, monitor, now that we've finished smoking, let's go in and do some more?"

"Let's go, try to break through the 60 mark this time!"

….

While the two little warriors, perhaps the most unknown in the world, were discussing the coming storm on this island under the sunset, there were also many others like them within the vast territory of China. The same soldiers talked about the same topic under the same sunset.

Although their expressions of this upcoming event were different, their attitudes were surprisingly consistent.

"If a man is dead and a bird is in the sky, he is afraid of a hammer, so fuck him!"

"Comrades, the time has come for the party and the people to test us..."

"A great cause for a thousand years, let's fight here!"

"Mom and Dad, I'll be loyal first, and then I'll go back and be filial after the fight."

"If you can't bear it, you have to beat me!"

"Don't say you didn't predict what you said."

These voices rise from the Kunlun Mountains, from the Great Gobi Desert, from the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River, from the hundreds of thousands of mountains, from the vast snowfields, from the thousands of miles of waves, and from the boundless space. They vaguely seem to merge into a sentence. .

A war may be coming.

But they didn't want to retreat.
