My Wife is Actually a top-tier Soldier King?!-Chapter 1192 - 1090: The Great Battle! A Fatal Strike!
The atmosphere was scorching.
During the remote video conference meeting.
The pro-war faction and the opposition were clearly divided, with huge differences in opinion.
Padding Shayol was certainly part of the pro-war faction, and his stance was the most aggressive.
In his view, there were countless reasons to kill Wu Jie, but not a single reason to spare his life.
The opposition also had many reasons.
Firstly, tactically.
In recent years, the enemy’s scientific and technological advancements have been continuous and various high-tech innovations are emerging, enhancing their comprehensive national power significantly.
They are not some impoverished weak country but are capable of launching satellites and spacecraft into space, as well as building naval carriers and submarines that traverse the oceans.
They have a well-developed military technology R&D and manufacturing system, capable of independently developing and manufacturing various weapons and equipment.
They could no longer be bullied by anyone.
This operation involves dispatching the most advanced Vulture Fighters, to penetrate deep behind enemy lines.
The advancement of the Vulture Fighter is unquestionable, but what about its reliability? Can it be guaranteed to be 100% fault-free?
Last time, when Squadron 277 executed a highly confidential mission using a secret test stealth helicopter to transport special forces, didn’t it malfunction and crash unexpectedly?
That mission, fortunately, occurred in a weak and poor country, with reasonably good diplomatic relations, otherwise it would have caused a major incident.
If during this operation, the Vulture Fighter malfunctions at a critical moment and crashes in enemy territory, what then?
This represents the second strategic issue.
The enemy is not some weak country; in recent years, as their comprehensive national power has grown, they have become increasingly assertive in international affairs.
If the Vulture Fighter loses control due to a malfunction, even if it self-destructs at the critical moment, it could still leave various wreckage and debris behind, could this not give the enemy a handle to exploit?
Besides, don’t claim it to be the best in the world, unparalleled globally.
If it were truly invincible, the Carson Naval Carrier Battle Group would not have been suffering brutal attacks for so long without discovering the assailant.
Nor would it have been possible for the battle group, aircraft, tanks, and all electronic equipment to be instantly killed in a mysterious way at the Baldet Battle.
Therefore, those in the pro-war faction, who dares claim the Vulture Fighter is 100% advanced, stable, powerful, and could easily strike in and out smoothly?
Lastly, it’s a matter of interest.
Up to this point, why kill Wu Jie?
Although Wu Jie holds a position in the Security Bureau, he is fundamentally an impulsive businessman.
Because he initially led multiple countries to bully and sanction Tanglong Industrial Group, Wu Jie made enemies with Star Federation.
Later, because of the Detox Pill, Rosdelle’s Auxiliary Business Association audaciously kidnapped many people, extorting Wu Jie with the Detox Pill in exchange.
With deep-seated resentment, Wu Jie obtaining a nuclear warhead and selling it to anyone other than the Star Federation is perfectly reasonable.
Moreover, as long as the nuclear warheads don’t end up in hostile nations or in the hands of terrorist forces, even if the other side controls them, what can they do?
Although there are various contradictions and differences between the two countries, they also have massive mutual economic interests.
The Star Federation needs to export personal computers, smartphones, tablets, software games, food, cars, medical equipment, grain, energy, and import metal materials, electrical products, industrial rare earths, cheap clothing, daily necessities, etc.
Perhaps dispatching Vulture Fighters is possible to stealthily attack and kill Wu Jie without a trace and without any harm to themselves.
But at this critical juncture, even if there is no evidence on the other side, they would definitely know it was done by the Star Federation.
With the intent to blame, is there ever a lack of pretexts?
Moreover, the Star Federation itself has more than enough motive.
Previously, when Wu Jie was returning to his country, they sent out heavy combat aircraft to aggressively intercept and demonstrate military force.
A large cargo plane, mid-flight, had its fuel consumption abruptly surge due to remote human interference, nearly causing it to crash into the sea.
All these incidents happened not too long ago.
If the stealth attack succeeds and Wu Jie is killed.
It would only infuriate the other party thoroughly!
So...
Is it necessary to dispatch the most advanced Vulture Fighters just to kill one man, Wu Jie?
Considering the economic trade between the two parties amounts to hundreds of billions of Gold Coins each year, why not abandon the airstrike?
Even if an assassination is truly necessary, other methods involving spies or agents could be employed.
If one attempt fails, then try ten times, a hundred times; surely he can be eliminated eventually, so why rush it?
In short.
The opinion of the opposition is simple.
Vulture Fighters are not 100% reliable, the economic and trade interests between the two countries are more important, and there is no need to rush in killing Wu Jie; time and money can be spent to slowly wear him down.
It took ten years to eliminate Ladan.
Why not spend another ten years to eliminate Wu Jie?
...
Of course.
For Padding Shayol and other leaders of the pro-war faction, they don’t think this way.
They vehemently countered the opposition’s opinion.
Firstly.
Indeed, the reliability of the Vulture Fighters can’t be guaranteed to be 100%.
Perhaps the enemy has unexpected advanced radars, perhaps the Vulture Fighters might malfunction unexpectedly.
But haven’t we arranged two Vulture Fighters that have undergone various tests without any issues; could there still be problems?
If the enemy has advanced radars, just retreat; with the speed advantage of the Vulture Fighters, they can definitely escape.
If one malfunctions, isn’t there still another one?
Therefore, tactically, there are no problems.
On the contrary, without a real battle test, how else can we know the true military strength of the enemy?
Secondly.
The economic and trade interests between the two countries, both past and present, involve huge amounts and many corporate benefits and many people’s employment, but the future is not necessarily guaranteed as the other party is currently developing rapidly.
