Chapter 305
For a time, the number of foreigners traveling to Dragon Country from around the globe increased significantly.
Although many of these individuals were under the surveillance of the Anquan Bureau.
Nevertheless, quite a few still slipped through the net.
However, this is Dragon Country; even the world's top five intelligence organizations
would face severe restrictions operating here.
As for Lin Yi, the appearance of the DWS envoy
could be said to mark the DWS platform entering a new stage.
Chapter 227: Dragon Country's Extra-Spec Reception! The Envoy Arrives!
Actually, this all started after the previous B2 auction.
Wang Luchuan, head of the Anquan Bureau's special task force for DWS,
had been instructed by higher-ups to invite the person in charge of the DWS platform for a visit.
Originally, Wang Luchuan believed that an organization like the DWS platform, hidden in the shadows, would never agree.
But who could have expected that the other party would actually agree just a few days later.
Moreover, the state had originally assumed this visit would be conducted in secret and had already made preparations accordingly.
It was to be their first contact.
However, unexpectedly, the DWS platform announced this visit publicly.
It was as if they no longer intended to hide, but rather intended to appear out in the open.
Because of DWS's actions, the entire world was in an uproar, leaving the state quite passive in this matter.
Upon learning of this, numerous spies hidden within the country immediately became extremely active.
In a short time, the Anquan Bureau solved several spy cases.
However, by now,
this matter had become common knowledge to everyone.
The plans initially formulated by the state,
such as receiving them at a military airport and conducting secret operations, were all rendered useless.
After discussions at the highest level, the state simply decided to publicly receive the DWS platform's envoy with the "Four-Eight-Three" treatment reserved for foreign leaders.
Of course, regarding any discordant voices within the country,
the state imposed a complete blockade and dealt with them.
After all, every country has its share of self-righteous hypocrites.
These people believe the DWS platform is the root cause of many international upheavals, and that the weapons it sells
have claimed tens of thousands of lives in just one year.
Even now, in the Middle East, Israel is still engaged in fierce battles with various Middle Eastern nations,
both sides suffering heavy losses, and including the cheap weapons used by Hamas, all of which come from supplies provided by the DWS platform.
They argue that for such an evil organization, the state should not only refrain from receiving them but should instead detain the so-called envoy for interrogation.
And then dismantle this organization.
However, those who voiced such opinions
would be invited to the local police station for tea within a few hours.
As for how long they would drink that tea, it would depend on their attitude toward admitting their guilt.
The lightest charge would be picking quarrels and provoking trouble; for more serious cases,
it would be directly classified as endangering national security.
After all, these keyboard warriors completely fail to consider the actual situation.
Detaining their envoy for interrogation? Do you think the DWS platform is some ordinary, workshop-style arms dealer?
They sell weapons like aircraft carriers and stealth bombers worldwide.
Based on their currently known strength alone, they possess at least five aircraft carrier battle groups, hundreds of the most advanced F-35 carrier-based aircraft, and tens of thousands of troops.
Other aircraft and tanks are likely countless.
Tell me, if Dragon Country were to go and detain their envoy for interrogation, what would be the consequence?
By then, both sides would likely engage in a massive conflict.
According to Dragon Country's estimates, even if they could defeat the DWS platform with its current strength,
it would be a case of killing a thousand enemies while suffering eight hundred losses oneself.
The country's military strength would suffer losses of at least seventy to eighty percent,
and it would also face the risk of economic collapse in coastal cities.
And this is assuming the other party has no hidden tricks up their sleeve.
What if their strength exceeds five aircraft carrier battle groups? What if they possess even more powerful weapons?
For instance, nuclear weapons!
Dragon Country does not believe that a force capable of manufacturing so many Ford-class aircraft carriers
would be unable to produce nuclear weapons.
Moreover, if Dragon Country were to go to war with the DWS platform, those countries led by the United States
would probably wake up laughing in their sleep.
After all, when two major enemies go to war, regardless of who lives or dies,
for them, it is a dream come true.
They even hoped both sides would destroy each other.
Therefore, unless the highest echelons of Dragon Nation had collectively gone mad,
it was impossible for them to make a move against the DWS Platform's envoy.
Moreover, not only could they not attack, but they also had to protect the other party with the most stringent measures,
after all, if this envoy came to Dragon Nation and something happened,
it would inevitably cause the DWS Platform to turn its wrath upon Dragon Nation.
Thus, regarding security, the nation had implemented the most rigorous protection imaginable.
The Zhongyang Guard Regiment, the Imperial Capital Garrison Forces, and the army, navy, and air force had all begun comprehensive deployment.
This was to prevent any accidents from occurring.
It could be said that in terms of security, this envoy received treatment far more stringent than that afforded to the President of the Ugly Nation.
After all, besides arms trading,
the DWS Platform's several operations could be said to have thoroughly offended quite a few nations.
It was understandable that these nations might wish to do something irrational.
However, Dragon Nation absolutely did not wish to be implicated by such irrational acts.
Therefore, as long as the envoy was within Dragon Nation's borders,
they had to ensure the other party's safety.
On November 8th, the day before the new presidential election in the Ugly Nation,
a C-17 "Globemaster" transport aircraft suddenly appeared in Dragon Nation's airspace.
Immediately, the Dragon Nation military began verification.
After receiving confirmation from the other party, this super transport aircraft headed toward the Imperial Capital.
Upon receiving the information, the Great Leader of Dragon Nation, who had already made preparations for the welcome, sighed with emotion:
"This truly befits a representative of arms merchants, actually using such a super transport aircraft as their personal ride!"
It was well known that the C-17 "Globemaster" was one of the most advanced transport aircraft in the world,
with a cargo hold 26.82 meters long, approximately 5.49 meters wide, and 4.11 meters high, capable of carrying up to about 77 tons of cargo.
As a product of the 1980s from the previous century, this transport aircraft even possessed greater carrying capacity than Dragon Nation's newly developed Yun-20.
Regarding the DWS Platform's weapon manufacturing capabilities, even Dragon Nation felt deep admiration.
Thus, while the transport aircraft was on its flight path, two J-10 fighters quickly began escorting it.
Furthermore, the pilots on the aircraft spoke ahead of time via radio intercom:
"Welcome, Mr. Envoy, to Dragon Nation; Dragon Nation welcomes your arrival!"
