The cabinet meeting ended after more than two hours of quarreling.According to the current situation, the meeting formulated a series of countermeasures.No matter what solutions Bowman and his ministers can come up with, one thing is certain, the powerful old empire of the United States can no longer laugh at this moment.

The current world situation is very delicate, as unusually calm as the prelude to a storm. Except for the media's daily reports of the war situation on the Iranian battlefield, the governments of all countries have remained silent.Everyone knows that the war in Iran is actually a game between China and the United States, but the United States is in the open, while China is in the dark.

The London Times wrote in an article: The Middle East is like a huge powder keg, and Iran is the fuse of this powder keg. The power to decide when the powder keg will explode is now in the hands of China and the United States. In Huaxia's hands.Through this contest, the whole world will undoubtedly recognize China's leadership in the world.In less than three years, China has achieved a beautiful leap from being on an equal footing with the United States. From now on, in this world, the United States may also depend on China's winks.

Just after the four aircraft carrier battle groups suffered heavy blows and withdrew from the Arabian Sea and the Persian Gulf in embarrassment, the United States did not give up continuing to carry out military strikes against Iran, but urgently withdrew them from bases in Japan and South Korea. The troops of the two divisions were put into the Iranian battlefield, and at the same time, more than [-] advanced fighter planes were sent from all over the world to the military bases around Iran, in an attempt to use the ground forces to quickly capture Iran under the attack of overwhelming air power The capital Tehran and several other large cities, thus further controlling several large oil fields in southern Iran.

From this point of view, the United States has also learned a lesson and adopted a tactic of avoiding reality and ignoring it. Since Iran now has very advanced heavy-duty anti-aircraft carrier missiles, it will be useless to send more aircraft carrier battle groups.According to the data released by Iran, the effective range of the Striker heavy anti-ship missile is [-] kilometers, which far exceeds the combat radius of the aircraft carrier battle group.

Since the attack from the sea failed, it can only rely on strong air power, which is also the last bit of capital of the United States.In their opinion, although the Iranian Air Force has recently obtained 10 advanced J-[-]Bs from China, it is not enough to deal with as many as [-] NATO fighters.

Iran's air force is once again in crisis. On the seventh day of the war, Iran's air force has less than [-] fighters left. Not to mention protecting other strategic targets, even the sky over Tehran cannot be defended. After the Iranian army lost its air cover, it also retreated steadily.

The NATO coalition forces were overjoyed when they saw that the situation in the air battlefield had reversed. Their fighter planes became more courageous at this time, as if they had entered no man's land. They not only launched attacks on some suspicious military targets in Iran , and even bombed several very large oil fields in Iran. For a while, thick smoke billowed over Iran, like hell on earth.

The Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued an extremely strong statement, strongly condemning the NATO coalition led by the United States for bombing oil fields and facilities invested by Huaxia, and causing the casualties of nearly a hundred Chinese citizens.The statement clearly stated that in order to protect the lives and property of Huaxia enterprises and safeguard Huaxia's interests in Iran, the Huaxia government will take all necessary means to retaliate against the NATO coalition forces.

Once the news was released, it once again caused a sensation all over the world. Everyone can see that Huaxia's statement means that it will directly participate in the war.

The Times, which was the first to publish the forecast results of this war, published another commentary. In the article, they wrote triumphantly: At the beginning of the war, we expected that China would inevitably join the war. The current situation is following the development as we had previously judged.This statement by the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs is actually a declaration of war against the NATO coalition forces.Huaxia, which has become stronger, is very likely to dispatch their powerful air force in the early stages of joining this war. It does not rule out dispatching a powerful army that defeated the U.S. Army in the last century.The fuse of the Iran war will also accelerate the burning speed. Once the powder keg in the Middle East explodes, it will cause World War III.

Bowman couldn't sit still again, and urgently called a meeting of cabinet members. They knew what it would mean if China joined the war. If there was a war between two nuclear powers, one of them would inevitably activate the nuclear button in the end, and fight a battle that would make the country suffer. A nuclear war that destroys the world.

Just when Bowman announced the start of the meeting, the White House press officer hurried in and turned on the TV under the surprised eyes of all the ministers.

Without explanation from the press officer, Bowman and his cabinet knew what was on TV.

The female announcer of Huaxia TV announced: "At ten o'clock this morning, Huaxia conducted an anti-missile exercise in the Pacific Ocean. Four missiles launched from somewhere in the ocean to China's mainland were successfully intercepted after 23 seconds into the air. Our Now it can be announced to the world that Huaxia has established a trinity powerful anti-missile system including space, air and ground. Missiles launched from any part of the world towards China will be within 30 seconds of lift-off It was intercepted by us. Here we advise some war madmen not to try to play with fire, once this result occurs, they will surely reap the consequences of China ten times or even a hundred times."

The scene of the Huaxia missile exercise appeared on the TV. The missiles launched by the four deep-sea submarines suddenly exploded and caught fire before adjusting their flight trajectories, and fell to the sea surface with billowing smoke.The picture of the exercise is very clear, even the US reconnaissance satellites cannot do this.

The chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Admiral Kornford, stared at all of this in astonishment, but he knew that this picture was absolutely real, and there was no fake element.If a nuclear bomb is intercepted and exploded within 30 seconds after lift-off, the place where the missile was launched will suffer, which is equivalent to detonating a nuclear bomb on its own head.

Bowman shook his head vigorously, trying to wake himself up, and asked, "Why didn't our satellite monitor these situations?"

Secretary of State Michael pointed to the watch on his wrist: "Mr. President, the ten o'clock in the morning announced by Huaxia is our current local time, which means that what they broadcast is the live exercise."

"Crazy, crazy, Huaxia is crazy, they are threatening us naked!"

The ministers all know that Bowman is telling the truth. Huaxia has shown their strong confidence to the world through the live broadcast, which is to tell the United States not to try to fight a nuclear war with Huaxia. However, it is the United States itself that suffers.Huaxia's move is tantamount to a death sentence for the thousands of nuclear bombs owned by the United States.The nuclear bomb was intercepted and exploded overhead before it was launched. No one could afford such serious consequences.

The anti-missile system that the United States has been clamoring for decades is still only in the experimental stage, and the ideal interception capability is only 50.00%.Don't say that it can only intercept 50.00%, even if a missile lands on Washington, the United States will be over.

The Chinese nation is terrible. It is their creed to do nothing but talk. The United States has been clamoring for decades and failed to do something, but China has done it quietly.If it weren't for the war in Iran, China would still not announce these secret weapons they possess in advance.It was only now that Bowman and his cabinet members realized that Huaxia's trump card really existed, and they were not trying to scare them.

CIA Director Bill.He stared at the picture with a gloomy face, and after seeing it once, he looked it upside down again, and then sighed heavily: "This picture is real, which means that Huaxia's anti-missile system has succeeded. From now on, No country in the world can carry out nuclear deterrence against China, but we have to live with trepidation under the deterrence of China's nuclear weapons.

On the [-]st, [-]rd, and shortly after Mu Guoxing left the General Staff Combat Command, the NATO coalition forces took off nearly [-] fighter planes from Iraq, Kuwait, and aircraft carriers parked in the Persian Gulf, killing Iran one by one.

From the perspective of tactical command art alone, NATO's move is undoubtedly very beautiful. From this point, it can also be proved that the command system of the NATO coalition forces is still very strong, and the combat capabilities of the troops are also very high.

A heavy ground-penetrating bomb dropped from a B2 stealth bomber accurately hit Iran's Central Homeland Control Command at the northern end of the Herod Mountains. Several other important military targets were also bombarded by the coalition forces. Indiscriminate bombing.During this period, apart from a small number of ground-based anti-aircraft weapons that played some insignificant roles on the Iranian side, the Air Force did not even have a fighter plane to take off to meet it.

This is not to say that Iran's air force has no capabilities, mainly because the powerful electronic jamming capabilities of the United States have played a role.The advanced anti-stealth radar Iran purchased from China was not deployed here, and the old-fashioned air defense radars have lost their effect at this time. In addition, all the stealth bombers dispatched by the United States in the second attack, the strength of the two sides is very different. Iran It is inevitable that the side suffered a big loss.

In addition to this, there is another most important factor, that is, the Iranian side underestimates the military strength of the NATO coalition forces.The victory in the first air battle made them relax their vigilance.Under normal circumstances, after the first air strike, it is difficult to organize another air strike within two hours, and the United States took advantage of this loophole.

The strategic deception of the NATO coalition forces before the war was also very successful. It can also be said that it hid one-third of its strength. Pay attention to it, but think that Huaxia is creating a tense atmosphere.

It's no wonder that the Iranian side has this illusion, mainly because they trust their intelligence personnel too much. You must know that in modern warfare, you can't just trust your eyes. A person's observation is not as comprehensive as a high-altitude reconnaissance satellite.

Looking at the images transmitted by the satellite, nearly a hundred fighter jets at several Iranian military airports were on fire. Wen Yiqiang and Mu Congwu looked at each other, and both shook their heads helplessly.

"This time I taught Iran a profound lesson. I hope it can wake them up. We have warned them beforehand, but the Iranian side just refused to listen, and there is nothing we can do about it."

Mu Congwu nodded: "The Iranian side was dazzled by the short-lived victory. This is also because their top strategic decision-makers underestimated the war. Now let them fail once, and there is still time to learn some lessons. If you wait until the critical moment of the war It will be troublesome to make such a mistake again. It’s just a pity that we sold them dozens of J-10As.”

The satellite reconnaissance assessment report came out soon. The NATO coalition forces' strike effect this time is beyond doubt. With only two heavy ground-penetrating bombs, Iran's Southern Homeland Air Defense Command was completely destroyed. There are also seven military The airport, eleven barracks, and four other important military command systems were also destroyed in whole or in part. The NATO stealth bombers and the F22 escort missions all returned safely. Until this time, the Iranian Air Force It was only then that a dozen fighter planes were barely assembled and launched into the air to fight.

Seeing that the planes of the NATO coalition forces had already flown out of the country, the Iranian Air Force had no choice but to return.At this time, Iran does not dare to cross the border to attack the airport of the NATO coalition forces. Once this happens, it will cause a serious international dispute. Maybe the NATO coalition forces have already made preparations and are waiting for them to die.

"Well, is the situation bad?"

Mu Congwu, who was reading the report, raised his head and said with a wry smile: "According to the assessment, the NATO Air Force has wiped out 40.00% of the Iranian Air Force's air defense force in one fell swoop."

Wen Yiqiang took a look at the report, thought for a while and said: "It seems that No. [-] is busy again. I don't think it will be long before the President of Iran will definitely call No. [-] and ask us to provide them with advanced fighter jets urgently." .”

Mu Congwu nodded, he knew very well that this was an inevitable result.In the air battle that just passed, the J-10A fighter produced by Huaxia played a huge role. Its air combat superiority far surpassed that of the MiG-29. It can also be said to have taken on the main force of Iran's air defense, and this also It is one of the reasons why the NATO coalition forces gave priority to strikes.

"You should also go back and rest for a while. This war will last for a long time. It is enough to have them here to continue to observe. You, the commander-in-chief, have a heavy burden on your shoulders in this war. Don't Tired out the body."

Mu Congwu smiled and said: "Don't talk about me, you should go back to rest. I went to the next door to stare for two hours. I can only stay here for a few days."

Seeing Wen Yiqiang go out, Mu Congwu rang the summoning order, and said to the colonel officer who walked in Xunsheng: "It is estimated that there will be no movement within two hours. You can watch here for a while. I will go to the lounge next door to rest, and call me in time if there is any important situation."

Mu Congwu's estimate was not bad at all. Until 9:50, the third batch of NATO coalition tactical attack aircraft entered the sky over Iran.The vanguard of the bombing is the US Air Force attack force with F35B as the main force, and the US Navy Air Force attack force with F35C as the main force.The tactical bombing focuses on Iran's regional air defense command, air defense missile positions and front-line airports.

The bombing lasted for a full hour. According to the analysis of the images transmitted by the satellite, NATO has achieved remarkable results in this round of bombing.The F-35 of the U.S. Air Force was divided into seven fleets, which bombed the regional air defense headquarters, anti-aircraft missile positions and front-line airports in Khorramabad, Ahvaz, Isfahan, Yasuji, and Shiraz.The hit rate was more than 7%, and almost all ground targets were destroyed.

美国海军的3支航空联队总共出动36架F35C，轰炸了波斯湾沿岸的7处防空指挥中心、6处远程防空导弹阵地、军用机场与远程岸舰导弹发射阵地，命中率竟然达到了95%，21个目标全部被摧毁。

This time the bombing left only 40.00% of Iran's air defense combat capability, which means that on the first day of the war, Iran lost 60.00% of its air defense capability.

However, the nightmare was not over yet. At 12:52, 96 B86 bombers took off from the continental United States and launched 52 AGM86G air-launched cruise missiles over the Mediterranean Sea.According to the US military plan, all B52H bombers will be retired before next year, and the AGM86 series of air-launched cruise missiles will also be withdrawn at this time.Probably the U.S. military wants to use up all the AGM52G in stock before the B86H is retired.This is probably the last "stage performance" of the B[-] series of bombers and the AGM[-] series of air-launched cruise missiles.

Not only that, several "Burke"-class missile destroyers in the USS Nimitz aircraft carrier battle group that has been cruising in the Persian Gulf have also launched hundreds of AGMM1C9D cruise missiles at military targets in Iran. A naval gun with a caliber of 55mm struck the coastal defense missile launch site east of Bandar Abbas.

As Wen Yiqiang expected, at five o'clock in the afternoon, Iranian President Hassan personally called the hotline of Huaxia No. He was polite and calm, but Number One could tell that Hassan couldn't sit still anymore.

"Mr. Chairman, the NATO coalition forces dispatched thousands of fighter planes today, and used cruise missiles from warships at sea to launch five air strikes against us. We have suffered heavy losses. Now we have lost more than 60.00% of our air defense forces. This has greatly exceeded our capacity."

No. [-] listened to Hassan's speech calmly, and looked at the war report just sent by the Military Commission. He knew what Hassan was going to say next.

"Mr. President, we express our sympathy for the losses suffered by Iran. The tactics of the NATO coalition forces are also changing. I hope that the Iranian side will notice this in the future. At the same time, please pay attention to the information we provide you."

Bowman and his cabinet ministers are in mourning. They all know that Bill's words are true. Before, they thought about using nuclear weapons to challenge Huaxia. Now that they don't even have the last resort, what will they use to confront Huaxia in the future?

In fact, Huaxia's anti-missile system is not so powerful now, and it only has regional anti-missile capabilities.When Mu Guoxing took office, he visited the Northwest Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics. At that time, Liu Qiang, the director of the institute, told him that if Huaxia wanted to build a sophisticated anti-missile system, it needed at least eight space-based blue-ray weapons.In the past two years, Huaxia has only built a new space-based weapon, plus the original experimental one, which cannot completely intercept missile threats from all over the world. Nuclear submarines under the ocean are still unstoppable.

The reason why Bowman and his cabinet officials believed this fact was mainly because Huaxia's strategic deception was so good.For decades, China has kept a low profile and kept secret about its development in military science and technology. All countries in the world are also accustomed to this practice of China. It is easy for others to be fooled by occasional big words. This is what is said in the Art of War What is false is real, and what is real is false.

Secretary of Defense Chase first fired at CIA Director Bill: "Mr. Bill, the CIA gets so much money every year, what have you done? Why has Huaxia's anti-missile system been established, and the CIA still hasn't grasped this aspect Don't you think it should be explained to us?"
