He Liuyang was sitting in Liu Yuanqing's office, with a pile of newspapers in front of him, which were mainstream newspapers published at home and abroad that day.
He Liuyang randomly picked up a copy from abroad. It quoted the words of the Associated Press, and the lines constantly alluded to the Chinese threat theory. He believed that He Chaoyang's words were arrogant and arrogant, and he was trying to undermine the peace and stability of the entire world.
The next few foreign media reports also quoted reports from the Associated Press, but the angle has shifted to China's military.
At the end of each report, they all put pressure on the Chinese government to disclose the full-year military budget!
"unusual."
Liu Yuanqing said: "Yes, if it is normal, at most it will be threats, but this time it seems like there is an ulterior motive." Everyone's war of words is not just a day or two. If they are all talking, then what will happen?
No one cares about anyone else, they just call each other out in the media.
But if you point the finger at the military budget, it will have a different flavor.
"Any ideas?"
He Liuyang put down the newspaper, "It's just a sentence, asking for the disclosure of the military budget, which is outrageous."
Liu Yuanqing half-smiled, "It's not a day or two that this old American wants to be made public in our country. The key is why we chose this time."
As the process of internationalization accelerates, China has become more and more transparent in terms of financial disclosure. China would never have made its military budget public more than ten years ago, but in recent years it has been made public at specific times.
Since everything will be made public, why is the United States so anxious?
He Liuyang narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Liu Yuanqing and said calmly: "The United States is going to conduct military exercises again?" If not, Liu Yuanqing would not call him over in a hurry.
Liu Yuanqing said: "I'm just saying that you have a poisonous eye. It would be a pity not to be a counselor!" This kind of sharpness is not something ordinary people can have. You know, there are many twists and turns in this.
Liu Yuanqing placed a piece of information in front of He Liuyang and said: "This was just sent by the headquarters this morning. It is a secret letter sent by the Intelligence Office in Mi."
He Liuyang glanced at Liu Yuanqing, but did not take it. He raised his eyebrows and said, "What does this have to do with me."
Liu Yuanqing feigned anger and said: "Don't pretend to be stupid for me, kid! Take a look first!"
He Liuyang took it and opened it. It was indeed a piece of heavyweight information.
The intelligence stated that the US military and the South Korean military planned to hold joint military exercises in the South China Sea. The South China Sea is located in southern China and is part of the Pacific Ocean surrounded by mainland China, Taiwan Island, Philippines Island, the Greater Sunda Islands and the Indo-China Peninsula. Exercises here will
It is obviously an attempt to intimidate China.
However, according to intelligence personnel, the United States and South Korea have already agreed on this exercise and only need to confirm the specific date.
“Is the source trustworthy?”
Liu Yuanqing saw that He Liuyang deliberately ignored the important points and said angrily: "Fart! This is the intelligence sent by the headquarters. Although the two countries have not made it public yet, it is absolutely credible! You kid continue to pretend to be stupid for me, don't you?"
He Liuyang smiled and said: "This kind of thing should be handled according to the usual practice. If they practice it, we will practice it too."
No one knows how to conduct military exercises. No one intends to actually fight anyway.
Seeing He Liuyang's lack of interest, Liu Yuanqing pointed at him with a smile and said, "You kid, you really want to have a show."
He Liuyang smiled and said: "How can it be?"
"Okay, let's get down to business." Liu Yuanqing put the secret letter away and said: "It is indeed as you said, the superiors also plan to hold a military exercise. The time will be around the South China Sea. But it has not yet been composed of which military regions it will be.
Yes, but it is certain that our army will recruit more people."
He Liuyang frowned and said, "You want me to bring someone to participate?"
Liu Yuanqing said with a smile: "It's time for the 65th Army to open its eyes." Although each exercise is only for others to see, the military regions in the mainland also fight fiercely.
"I estimate that this time it will be a confrontational exercise," Liu Yuanqing said with a little light in his eyes: "If it is a confrontational exercise, each military region will send the main force to fight. We cannot fall behind!"
"Chief, have you had trouble with the 65th Army again recently?"
Liu Yuanqing said: "Fart, why is the 65th Army the ace army this time? Our 23rd Army is not bad either. I tell you, you have to go if you don't want to go this time. Last time, you little bastard took everyone out.
Only then will I be embarrassed in front of the 65th Army!"
Originally, there was not much difference between the two armies in army operations, and because of He Liuyang, the 23rd Army's Army Mobile Operations would be even better. But unfortunately, He Liuyang happened to take people to perform a mission abroad last time, and the 23rd Army ended up losing.
First of all, Liu Yuanqing has been dissatisfied from two years ago to now. Whatever he says this time, He Liuyang must be blamed.
He Liuyang knew Liu Yuanqing's thoughts and said: "This time I will leave you with the people, and the leader can direct them as you like."
"Come back here! What do you mean!" Liu Yuanqing pointed at He Liuyang and said, "I tell you, I have already put down my words in front of the commander. This time you have to do it for me even if you don't do it!"
"Chief..."
"Don't look down on this military exercise. Do you know who is in charge of our military region for this military exercise?" Seeing He Liuyang listening, Liu Yuanqing said: "The Chief of General Staff is out on a mission. This time the personnel will be assigned by the Deputy Chief of Staff.
The person in charge is Gao Shize."
He Liuyang didn't expect that he would actually face Gao Shize like this.
"Who is he going to send?"
Liu Yuanqing shook his head and said: "I don't know, but it must be someone from the Gao family. After all, Gao Shize is old and needs to support new people to take over. At present, it seems that Gao Shize is very likely to call back Gao Xing, who is stationed overseas.
"
After all, military exercises are a good excuse to make personnel transfers, and after the military exercise is over, the corresponding personnel can be promoted. It is an excellent time to place people.
"Gao Xing, you are back after all." He Liuyang said mockingly, and there was finally a hint of seriousness in his eyes.
Looking at He Liuyang's look, Liu Yuanqing knew that if Gao Xing really came back, it would be certain that He Liuyang would participate in the military exercise. He felt so comfortable in his heart, "You are also old classmates, and we are both well-educated. You have to behave well."
"Let's talk about it after the list is finalized."
Liu Yuanqing smiled and said: "Nine times out of ten."
Gao Shize sat at the General Staff Headquarters of the Western Pacific Theater and handed out the main list of personnel for this exercise. On it, the word Gao Xing was clearly listed.
After the military exercise was determined internally, diplomats from the Chinese Embassy in the United States appeared in front of foreign media and told the world: "China is a country with freedom, independence and sovereignty, and no country has the right to make irresponsible remarks! We advise some
Country, while talking about others, take care of yourself first!"
Such a tough answer immediately caused a big stir.
Some reporters smelled something unusual. The Chinese diplomat’s answer seemed too tough this time!
