Chapter 200: Increase Intensity, Produce as Quickly as Possible

Hamilton's expression grew increasingly ugly.

This kind of description sounded like science fiction, but Wilson's eyes told him that this young man was not lying.

Walking out of the medical room, Hamilton's mind was in a complete mess.

If what Wilson said was true, then where on earth did the Long Country people get this kind of weapon?

The Polar Bear?

Impossible, although their technology is advanced, they have not yet developed an Anti-aircraft System of this level.

Could it be... that the Long Country people really developed this kind of weapon themselves?

This thought was too ridiculous.

How could a backward country that had just emerged from a civil war develop an Advanced weapon system in such a short time that even the Di Guo did not possess?

It must be some other reason.

Perhaps it was terrain factors, or weather conditions... or perhaps his pilots were just careless and underestimated the enemy.

Regardless, he had to find out the truth.

Those high-and-mighty bastards at headquarters could sit in Washington and question him, but he was the one standing on the front lines.

"Prepare a reconnaissance plane," he said to his adjutant, "I want to know what exactly is in that valley."

The adjutant hesitated: "Sir, if the Long Country really has that kind of Anti-aircraft System, a reconnaissance plane..."

"Don't talk to me about 'ifs'!" Hamilton snapped, "It is impossible for the Long Country to have that level of technology. It must be some other reason, I want definitive proof!"

The adjutant saluted and turned to leave.

Hamilton stood before the window, looking toward the distant mountain range.

There, a Long Country army that should have been vulnerable had just shot down twenty-three of his Advanced fighter jets.

This defied logic, but he had to face reality.

Deep down, a faint voice had already begun to warn him: perhaps the Long Country was not as weak as described in the intelligence reports.

Just as dawn was breaking, Minister Zhao was awakened by the urgent ringing of the telephone.

He stumbled out of bed and grabbed the phone.

"What is it? So early..."

"Minister Zhao!" Li Mingyuan's excited voice came from the other end of the line,

"Our Anti-aircraft weapon has won a great victory! Li Yunlong's unit shot down twenty-three Di Guo 'Sabre' fighter jets in one battle yesterday!"

Minister Zhao sobered up instantly and nearly dropped the phone on the floor.

"What did you say? Twenty-three? All shot down?"

"Yes! Only one escaped back! The 'Flying Dragon-1' and the Tianluo System worked together seamlessly! The Di Guo pilots didn't even know how they died!"

Minister Zhao plopped down on the edge of the bed, his hands trembling.

This was the air power the Di Guo was so proud of, the most Advanced fighter jets in the whole world, and twenty-three of them were just shot down like that?

"The detailed battle report has already been sent to headquarters," Li Mingyuan continued,

"Li Yunlong said this was the most beautiful battle since the war began; the Di Guo planes were like paper, they couldn't withstand our weapon strikes at all!"

"Great, that's great!" Minister Zhao was so excited he was incoherent, "I'm going to headquarters immediately, this good news must be reported to the Chief at the first opportunity!"

……

One hour later, inside the headquarters conference room.

After hearing the report, the Chief revealed a rare smile.

"Good, good!" He slapped the table, "Finally, we can hold our heads high! The Di Guo relied on their air superiority to do whatever they wanted in Taiyang, and now we in the Long Country have finally made them taste bitterness!"

The conference room was filled with jubilation, and several Advanced generals could not help but applaud.

"Chief," Minister Zhao struck while the iron was hot, "I suggest immediately sending reinforcements to support Li Yunlong to expand the victory. At the same time, increase the production of the 'Flying Dragon-1' and the Tianluo System and rush them to the front lines."

The Chief nodded: "Correct, we must strike while the iron is hot. We have finally obtained a trump card to defeat the enemy, we must not miss this opportunity! Pass on my order: mobilize three divisions to reinforce Li Yunlong's unit, and all units must be equipped with the new-style Anti-aircraft weapon!"

Within a day, this heart-stirring news spread throughout the entire Long Country.

On the streets and alleys of major cities, people gathered together, vying to spread this exciting news of victory.

"Have you heard? We shot down over twenty of the Di Guo's most Advanced fighter jets all at once!"

"You bet! My uncle said those 'Flying Dragon' rockets can chase down enemy planes, and the Di Guo pilots were so scared they wet their pants!"

"It's about time we taught them a lesson! Relying on their advanced planes to do evil in Taiyang, now they know the power of our Long Country!"

In the factories, the workers were full of energy, and many voluntarily worked overtime, swearing to provide more and better weapons and equipment for the front lines.

In the Red Star Machinery Factory, the entire factory area was boiling with excitement.

Factory Director Yang Zhigang stood on the stage and read the latest victory report to all the factory workers.

"Comrades! The 'Flying Dragon-1' rockets and Tianluo System produced by our factory have shown great power on the front lines, shooting down twenty-three Advanced Di Guo fighter jets in one battle! This is an unprecedented Victory, and it is the pride of all the workers at the Red Star Machinery Factory!"

Thunderous applause and cheers erupted from the audience.

"Now, the front lines need more of these new-style weapons! The Chief has ordered us to double production! Comrades, do you have the confidence to complete this glorious mission?"

"We have confidence! We guarantee to complete the mission!"

"Provide more weapons for the front lines!" the workers shouted, their faces beaming with proud smiles.

In another office, Li Mingyuan was holding an emergency meeting with the technical team.

"According to feedback from the front lines, the performance of the 'Flying Dragon-1' exceeded expectations, but there is still room for improvement," Li Mingyuan said, quickly drawing a diagram on the blackboard,

"The sensitivity of the seeker can be increased by another 20%, which will make it more reliable for dealing with high-altitude, high-speed targets."

The technical staff recorded carefully, occasionally raising questions and suggestions.

"The range of the Tianluo System also needs to be increased; the Di Guo will likely adopt a high-altitude bombing strategy, so we must expand our air defense network further. Additionally, the production of the All-Terrain Tracked Vehicle must continue to accelerate; the feedback from the front lines is excellent, as it solved the transportation problem in the mountainous terrain of Taiyang."

It was already late at night when the meeting ended, but no one complained of fatigue.

The huge Victory encouraged everyone, and everyone was willing to give more to provide the best equipment for the soldiers on the front lines.

Walking out of the conference room, Li Mingyuan let out a long breath and rubbed his sore eyes.

Di Guo will not let this rest; they will send more aircraft and use more aggressive tactics.

However, the industrial foundation of Long Country is still very weak, and whether it can continuously produce enough new-style weapons is a big problem.

……

Inside the Di Guo airbase, the atmosphere was so heavy it was almost suffocating.

"The fourth reconnaissance plane has also lost contact, sir," the Communication Officer reported with a pale face,

"The last communication showed it had approached the target area, and then... it was gone."

Hanmidun Colonel stood in the center of the operations room, his expression as grim as iron.

Within four days, he had already sent out four advanced reconnaissance planes with only one goal: to confirm what kind of Anti-aircraft System the Long Country military actually had.

And the result? All four reconnaissance planes disappeared, and not even a single photograph was sent back.
