Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
It was 1997 now. Everything was still hidden under the calm. Their country continued to maintain a low profile.
After the sanction in 1990, America recalled all the temporary bases they built in China. The professional team demolished all the equipment and facilities with the help of the American army. They also blew up a few tanks that they finished building. At the same time, all the blueprints were destroyed too.
As for the air force, the United States Air Force stopped providing China with the most advanced F16A fighter planes as well as more than ten Type B fighter planes.
Ever since then, China has been remaining silent in its military affairs. They started going into torpor all the way until the large scale military parade of 1999. That year, they reviewed 42 pieces of equipment, of which more than 90% were new equipment. Most of them were self-designed and manufactured. These high-tech weapons and equipment became the main weapons of the country. It also showed the real rise of a big nation.
In the past, she wasn’t concerned about military affairs. But, after choosing this path and listening to what Commander Xia said, she believed that her country’s military power had jumped drastically. As the highest-ranking commander of the military, Commander Xia’s foresight was already ahead of the entire world.
Xia Jinyuan always discussed wars with his father so he never felt that this topic was difficult at all. However, he still felt a little worried when they spoke of it in front of Ye Jian.
He smiled and said, “Dad, are you testing me or testing her? If you’re testing me, we never managed to distinguish who is better on this topic. If you’re testing my future girlfriend, it might be too deep.”
“From a professional point of view, this is indeed a deep topic. However, to the two of you who aspire to be an outstanding soldier, this is something you must think about.” Commander Xia turned slightly serious as he said to the two youngsters, “No matter what your ident.i.ty is now, as long as you enter the military, you must have the initiative.”
He didn’t hope that his son would just be a conservative person. He also didn’t hope that his daughter-in-law was short-sighted. If they didn’t know anything, he could teach them. But, they mustn’t avoid it!
Ye Jian started thinking about Commander Xia’s question. She was reborn so even though she didn’t care much about military affairs in her past life, she more or less read about it in the news before.
She pursed her lips and weighed her thoughts in her heart before answering in a serious and sharp tone, “My view of future warfares is very simple. In the future, close combat will become an outdated tactic. The main tactics will be mostly long-ranged. Non-contactable tactics will definitely become the trend in future warfares.”
“Just like what you said, information warfare is a long-range tactic. It will become the main tactic during wars. An instance will be using long-range methods to control weapons and fire them accurately, just like the fighter planes dropping missiles from the air. The ground will be damaged but the fighter planes won’t. Everyone will aim to harm their enemy greatly while ensuring that their own people win.”
…
From the start to the end, Xia Jinyuan was shocked. He was entirely stunned by her words. He didn’t expect Little Fox to have such a deep understanding of future warfares even though she was very young.
Her understanding was so deep she was able to see what the future trend will be!
Commander Xia looked at Ye Jian in a new light. He was dumbfounded too. He repeatedly said, “Good, good.” Then, he smiled, “Very good! It’s rare that you have such foresight at a young age. If you really become Xia Jinyuan’s girlfriend, it’s his fortune!”
