Chapter 127: Director Zhang of the Deception Bureau's Suggestion

Besides air defense, Syria also requested cutting-edge Longguo weapons such as the Yingji-18 and the Lin Lin Jian-20.

Of course, that was impossible.

Last time, he had provided the Syrian side with Yingji-18 anti-ship missiles purely to teach the Ugly Country a lesson.

He simply hadn't expected those people in the Middle East to escalate matters so drastically, even triggering a war.

Therefore, he certainly could not provide them again now.

Because selling them in large quantities would make them easy for the enemy to intercept; once this anti-ship missile fell into the hands of the Ugly Country,

given the Yingji-18's combat record, they would undoubtedly disassemble and inspect every single screw.

Once the Ugly Country mastered the performance of the Yingji-18 anti-ship missile, they would inevitably seek countermeasures.

Once the Ugly Country grasps the performance of the Yingji-18 anti-ship missile, it will inevitably seek countermeasures,

It will be very difficult to achieve further combat results next time.

Moreover, even if Lin Yi were willing to sell the Yingji-18, the actual destructive power of a single missile is extremely limited.

To sink a large surface vessel like an aircraft carrier,

what is needed is a dense, saturation-style attack.

It is not every time that one gets so lucky as to strike an aircraft carrier's ammunition depot directly and trigger a sympathetic detonation.

In Lin Yi's view, if Syria had enough money to buy the Yingji-18,

it would be more practical to purchase more air defense missiles instead.

Thus, the Syrian side placed another order worth 500 million USD this time,

primarily for various models of the Type-01 air defense missiles.

It is precisely because the DWS platform continues to pump blood into Syria

that this country and the Houthi armed forces in Yemen do not fear the Ugly Country.

As soon as the Ugly Country dares to dispatch its troops, the Syrian side is prepared to deal them a crushing blow.

The vast amount of weaponry they have purchased has not yet been deployed.

Instead, it has all been hidden away.

However, the subsequent developments exceeded Syria's expectations.

For the following half-month, the Ugly Country did not launch any amphibious assault operations.

In reality, those people in the Pentagon are absolutely no fools;

they know that even if they dispatch a coalition force to engage in ground warfare against the opponent, they may not necessarily gain any advantage.

After so many years of war, the people of the Middle East have long since developed methods to counter the Ugly Army.

As for the Ugly Country, the loss of even a single soldier represents an astronomical figure, something the lives of people in the Middle East can never compare to.

Therefore, they would rather use missiles and fighter jets to deplete the living forces of Syria and Yemen

than sacrifice the lives of their own soldiers to fill the pit.

According to the Pentagon's strategic objective, the goal is to simply drag out the conflict until Syria's living forces are completely exhausted.

It must be said that this scheme is extremely poisonous.

Interestingly enough, due to the war in Syria,

Mother Central Television prematurely launched a program titled "Dragon Nation Public Opinion Arena," the nation's first integrated media news commentary show.

"Integrated media" refers to fully utilizing various media carriers to comprehensively integrate different media forms—such as radio, television, and newspapers—that share commonalities yet possess complementary strengths, in terms of manpower, content, and publicity.

It is a new type of media that achieves "resource integration, content fusion, mutual publicity blending, and shared benefits."

Mother Central Television had originally planned to launch this program in March,

but seeing that countless military enthusiasts online were deeply interested in the war between Syria and the Ugly Country,

Mother Central Television, after seeking approval from leadership, decided to launch the program ahead of schedule.

Furthermore, they invited special guests such as Director Zhang and Du Wenlong to interact with netizens.

Consequently, some netizens expressed confusion regarding the Ugly Country's daily expenditure of hundreds of Tomahawk missiles and its frequent bombing campaigns.

In response, Director Zhang explained:

"This is the Ugly Country's strategy; because they possess a complete military industry, they can engage in continuous attrition,

whereas the Syrian side cannot afford such a war of attrition.

Although it appears that Syria has indeed achieved some results so far, such as shooting down over a dozen F-18s,

unless the Ugly Army's F-22 and F-35C stealth fighter jets are shot down, their morale will never be affected.

Conversely, having been bombed for so long, the morale of Syrian soldiers is bound to be impacted.

The strategy Syria needs now is the 'On Protracted War' once mentioned by the Great Leader back in the day.

However, the premise is that the Syrian side must prove that the Ugly Country is not invincible; merely sinking one Nimitz-class aircraft carrier is not enough to break the Ugly Army's golden body.

Unless Syria can also destroy an F-22 Raptor fighter jet..."

Hearing Director Zhang speak thus, the host could not help but ask:

"Then, Professor Zhang, do you believe that with Syria's current strength, they are capable of destroying the Ugly Army's F-22 Raptor fighter jets?!"

Upon hearing this, Director Zhang laughed heartily and said:

"Impossible, absolutely impossible; at least with Syria's current air defense systems, it is simply unachievable!"

To this, Professor Du Wenlong, sitting nearby, nodded in agreement.

"Alright, let us continue with our audience interaction segment... This is 'Dragon Nation Public Opinion Arena'; if you have any questions regarding military matters, you can call our hotline or leave a message on our official website, and we will select lucky viewers from among them...."

The host stated.

Meanwhile, in Magic City, located a thousand kilometers away from the Imperial Capital,

Lin Yi watched the program just aired on Channel 7's Military Channel and murmured to himself:

"Take down an F-22? That's not impossible!"

Just then, a pleasant voice rang out from the kitchen.

"Time to eat!"

Li Li Xueying, wearing an apron, was seen walking out while carrying a bowl of pork rib soup.

With just a slight bend of her waist, a patch of snow-white skin became visible.

At this moment, the place where the two were located was not Lin Yi's luxurious mansion in Huangpu District,

but rather a high-end apartment complex rented by the company for Li Li Xueying.

Covering an area of 103 square meters, even in Songjiang District,

the monthly rent alone reached over 8,000 yuan, an amount that Li Li Xueying, with her salary as a little secretary, could definitely not afford.

But what could she do when she had such a good boss?

He directly rented this apartment for her according to the company's talent benefits package.

Ready to move in with just your luggage, featuring central heating throughout the entire unit.

Of course, within this small apartment, their relationship had advanced by leaps and bounds.

They had long since done everything together.

One had to admit, this little secretary possessed an impeccable figure.

A pair of snow-white beautiful legs, a chest boasting 38D giant pandas, and round buttocks.

It was truly enough to make any man unable to stop himself.

What delighted Lin Yi the most, however, was that this woman was still a virgin.

According to her, while at Fudan University, she naturally had no shortage of suitors,

but unfortunately, she felt those young men were all too superficial.

Most of them lacked even a shred of planning for the future; each one was aimlessly ambitious,

dreaming of becoming officials and climbing step by step, or starting businesses to become billionaires.

But after her investigation, she found none of these people worthy of her attention.

That was until she met Lin Yi.

To be honest, Lin Yi had not used any sweet talk or clever words.

Yet, with his identity as the president of Fengyi Technology and a billionaire, he only needed a rented apartment costing 8,000 yuan

to win over the gorgeous Li Li Xueying.

One had to admit, this was reality.

Perhaps for this little secretary, even if someone gifted her many luxury items or sports cars, she would disdain them.

But for the one she admired, even renting a cheap hotel room could trick her into giving away her first time.

Of course, Lin Yi was absolutely not a swindler.

However, to say he liked Li Li Xueying that much would also be untrue.

Compared to Li Li Xueying, he actually preferred Han Han Han Yajing,

but unfortunately, that girl was rather conservative, making it difficult to truly make progress with her in the short term.

Moreover, Lin Yi quite enjoyed that kind of romantic relationship.

Strolling through the streets, watching movies, and hand-in-hand touring the famous sites of Magic City during their free time—

these were all things Lin Yi had never enjoyed before.

As for Li Li Xueying, Lin Yi's feelings toward her were more of a physical need.

To be precise, it was desire.
