Chapter 247 Early occupation?

The consequences of the failure of the Los Angeles high-speed rail project far exceeded the U.S. government's expectations.

Compared to the size of the entire country, this is a very small thing.

However, due to the sparing no effort in the early stage of publicity, in the eyes of many people, this project has become a symbol of "making America rise again." But now, this symbol has fallen in such a way, no matter who it is, it is impossible for anyone to accept it.

The trend of economic decline is becoming more and more obvious, and because this project is directly related to the real economy, the impact on the real economy is even more exaggerated.

Public doubts about domestic companies and official capabilities have risen to the top, runs have occurred everywhere, material shortages have become more frequent, and in Los Angeles, the fiscal budget that has been almost drained by this project has become increasingly stretched.

Even the subsidies that were originally planned to be distributed to people who were unemployed and bankrupt due to the financial crisis have completely disappeared.

More than ten thousand people have fallen into a survival crisis as a result, and this is definitely not a small number

As time enters August, the high temperatures in the Northern Hemisphere have swept almost the entire North American continent, but Los Angeles, which is located in the temperate Mediterranean climate zone, is still rainy.

On August 12, the first large-scale demonstration broke out. With the intervention of the police, the demonstration gradually turned into a violent activity.

That night, more than a thousand stores and residents were robbed, and the Los Angeles police's call center was almost overwhelmed.

On August 14, the riots continued, but the people's goals gradually began to unify.

Led by individual leaders, the crowd began to rush towards the city hall, and the local military was dispatched to maintain order, but all was in vain.

In the early morning of the 15th, after the military opened fire, the situation completely got out of control. People rushed to the city hall and occupied it under the cover of chaotic firepower.

The national flag and state flags were all torn down and burned. The crazy crowd went about their business and even the walls were severely damaged.

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the largest riot incident encountered by the United States has occurred.

After the news broke, the whole world was shocked.

——

Except Chen Nian.

In Western Polytechnic University, Chen Nian sat opposite Chen Guo, shaking his head and thinking to himself:

I didn’t expect that zero-yuan shopping would arrive so many years earlier than in the previous life.

What’s even more outrageous is that Los Angeles actually broke the record on Capitol Hill and became the first official institution to be occupied.

Simply funny!

I, Ah Chuan, have all my merits taken away just like that?

Poor comrade, before he had a chance to play his role, he was already robbed of the limelight.

Seeing the half-smiling expression on Chen Nian's face, Chen Guo asked curiously:

"Why are you laughing there? What's there to drink?"

Hearing this, Chen Nian couldn't hold himself any longer.

He laughed and replied:

"Isn't this happy? Los Angeles City Hall has been occupied. The next step is Capitol Hill, and the next step is the White House."

"Goodbye!"

Chen Guo quickly interrupted him and said:

"It is better not to cause chaos in the United States. We have finally stabilized the situation and the domestic economy has begun to slowly recover."

"If we push them too hard and end up with everything being destroyed, and they not only export the economic crisis, but also start exporting war, then we will be in serious trouble."

"Well, they can do this kind of thing."

"Isn't that right? It's not like you don't know about things in the Middle East."

Chen Guo sighed and said.

Chen Nian was stunned for a moment, and then realized that he was talking about the previous attack on Iran's centrifuge equipment.

That incident was supposed to be the fuse for this large powder keg in the Middle East, but unexpectedly, due to the change in the balance of military power between the two sides, although this fuse looked scary, it did not detonate in the end!

In fact, from Iraq's perspective, it is not incomprehensible to choose to be patient at this time.

The reason is simple. Ever since Saudi Arabia obtained large quantities of weapons and equipment from China, their voice in the Middle East has quietly changed.

There are so many quasi-third-generation aircraft, close to 10 third-generation and a half aircraft, and they are even equipped with weapons and electronic warfare systems that far exceed the local combat effectiveness level.

Not to mention those drones that can fly over your head anytime, anywhere.

If a fight really breaks out, Iran will not gain anything.

Therefore, the final result was that both sides made several harsh words, conducted several exercises, and after flexing their muscles, it was over.

It is precisely for this reason that the impact of oil production cuts is far less than expected by the United States, which has also caused their economic recovery to be greatly slowed down.

Thinking of this, a strange idea suddenly popped into Chen Nian's mind:

Perhaps reducing weapons is not the only way to achieve world peace.

Issuing equal weapons to the hostile parties will equalize their strengths and reduce conflicts.

——

Good guy, what kind of King of War idea is this?

If China really keeps doing this, it is estimated that it will become another "kind doctor" in this century.

After a moment of silence, Chen Nian spoke:

"This is indeed a serious problem."

"Actually, even if they don't collapse in the short term, exporting war is a sure thing."

"What we have to do is not to maintain the situation and avoid exporting war."

"But try to find a way to nip the signs of war caused by them in the cradle."

"Although we now have various types of advanced weapons, it is obvious that the number of these weapons is not enough and they cannot achieve effective deterrence."

"No. 001 is speeding up, and at the same time, naval equipment must also quickly catch up."

Hearing Chen Nian's words, Chen Guo nodded solemnly.

But then, he shook his head and said:

"The navy still needs time, especially in terms of combat effectiveness. It is impossible to form formation-based combat effectiveness in a short period of time."

"We might as well continue to focus on the Air Force and Army."

"On the one hand, there are missiles, and on the other hand, there are fighter jets."

"With these two problems solved, at least in terms of local defense, we can achieve maximum combat effectiveness."

"Homeland defense cannot serve as a deterrent."

Chen Nian interrupted Chen Guo and continued:

"If we want to do it, we still have to build strategic bombers."

"How is the progress of the H-20?"

Chen Guo turned on the computer and turned the screen to Chen Nian's side.

"At present, all wind tunnel tests have been completed and the airframe is completely finalized."

"The next key issue to be tackled is the variable cycle engine."

"The 606 Institute has joined forces with the 603 Institute and is currently working on this project. It is expected that a prototype of the variable cycle engine will be ready within four months."

"Within six months, the H-20 should be able to make its first flight."

"However, its test period will be very long. You also know that this aircraft is a variable-sweep wing aircraft. It also has to take into account the stealth design and its structure is very complex."

"It doesn't matter if you go slow."

Chen Nian said thoughtfully.

"However, after the Chinese New Year next year, we really should give everyone a New Year gift."

At the same time, 605 schools.

Tang Changhong frowned as he looked at the latest report and said in a solemn tone:

"This design is not good. The variable sweep wing originally compresses the space of the wing fuel tank. The design of the fuel tank itself is already extremely complicated. If the gas filling device of the Tu-160 is used again, it is likely to be inefficient due to low efficiency.

This resulted in insufficient air pressure within the wing."

"Isn't this the reason why Lao Maozi threw down that Tu-160 in 2003? Why is there still no change at all in the plan we have adopted now?"

"They really don't plan to go any further? Just give up on this plane?"

Assistant Gao Yongyu on the side shook his head slightly and replied:

"I don't know what they think at the moment. Anyway, in this project they only played some role in the marginal field."
