A brand new, top-secret weapon with strategic value has erged!
This is almost a consensus among all nations!
Just a few years ago, people were still valuing the dominance and oppressive power of group charges, and many believed these would never beco obsolete.
Now it seems laughable — as soon as Mariluo’s weapon descends upon the people, thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of soldiers can be instantly mixed with the dirt, indistinguishable from one another.
The notion of group charges, trench warfare — the advent of airplanes and weapons with strategic value and intent have utterly changed the form of warfare.
So extremists even shouted slogans of the "theory of the army’s extinction" after getting firsthand information.
They believe that under such dense bombings, the human body simply cannot withstand it.
Even new tanks can’t withstand it.
Bombs rain down like rainwater, with no place to hide or shelter, so what’s the purpose of having an army?
Do you think your country has too many people, or dostic pressures are too heavy, so you want to use the hands of your enemy to reduce the population pressure?
No one would willingly walk to their death; the army had its glory days, then ca the navy, and now and in the future, it belongs to the air force!
Regardless of whether these extre claims are correct or have any guiding value, all nations have started to heavily build up their air forces.
Lynch has also received more orders. After all, presently only Darkstone Airlines’ planes are available for military sale; Kemoko’s are due to defense orders and are not sold externally.
This is a general trend in global currents, and even the rational ones agree with these views.
But they disagree that the army is headed for extinction.
In their words, people won’t stand idly by waiting for bombs from the sky to fall down, crack their heads open, and kill themselves.
People aren’t that foolish; people will run, but bombs won’t run!
This statent has quickly gained recognition from rational society; a hundred years ago, people still fought on horseback, but now the ergence of chanized troops has made soldiers more than just about "running."
Transport vehicles, armored vehicles, infantry vehicles — any of them can move large numbers of soldiers quickly unless bombs have eyes, otherwise they simply can’t hit the soldiers.
Apart from these debates, nocturnal bombings have also beco a focal point of public discussion.
During dayti, it’s possible to see planes flying in from a distance and be prepared for defense, but what about at night?
Planes blend with the night, indistinguishable from the sky — what asures other than hearing can effectively defend against such attacks?
So have suggested that high-powered searchlights might solve this problem.
All at once, stocks of military and optical electronics began to soar, and so bulb companies announced to society that they would develop searchlights that could illuminate the sky at night, laying a solid foundation for the Federation’s airspace safety...
A night raid by Darkstone Airlines sparked so much public opinion, and the Ministry of Defense’s anxiety is understandable; no one wants sothing of this nature suddenly falling on their heads.
According to feedback from frontline soldiers sent by the Ministry of Defense, the entire bombing was just one round, divided into two phases.
They were very, very curious about how Darkstone Airlines and Lynch managed to do it, how they covered so many areas with bombs in such a short ti?
If war broke out, dropping one such attack on the enemy’s important city...
There’s a feeling of excitent!
anwhile, a small nation with a population of less than two hundred thousand suddenly jumped out and accused the Federation of researching inhumane weapons, attempting to challenge world order and destroy world peace.
This small nation demanded that the Federation imdiately disclose the design and paraters of such a weapon and list it in the banned production and use weapon catalog worldwide!
Even dostically, so voices erged, such as —
"Such strategically valuable weapons should not be held in private hands!"
Mr. Truman looked at Lynch; he mimicked the speaking tone of those people very realistically, as if he himself had said it.
"It’s fortunate that there are still many issues holding back so people now, and Congress won’t support such views, but you need to let people know that this weapon is safe and can be constrained."
Congress has long beco the paradise of capitalists, and it’s impossible for capitalists to support such "nationalization" suggestions because if they agree, it ans they would suffer losses when their opponents need it.
No matter how well you do, it doesn’t stop them from thinking what you’re doing is dangerous; capitalists won’t allow anyone to so brazenly touch their cheese.
And this is the most normal behavior of capitalists; once they feel the rules of capital are challenged, even if they have enmity with Lynch, at that mont they would stand firmly together to defend the rules of capital.
At least, even if they can’t stand together, they won’t stand on the other side.
This is sowhat different from politicians; so boastful capitalists say Federation politicians are like dogs — you give them a bone, and they’ll bark at others.
Lynch looked at Mr. Truman, "What kind of constraints do you think it needs?"
Before Mr. Truman could speak, Lynch took the lead and said, "It doesn’t need anything; in my hands, it’s far safer than in the hands of politicians or the military."
"At least to soone like , peace is more valuable than war!"
He pointed upward with his finger, "If they knew how it’s done, that would also an our potential or direct enemies would know too. The Federation has no secrets!"
This is also a very troubleso issue; Mr. Truman pondered for a while, acknowledging Lynch’s viewpoint that the Federation doesn’t really have any secrets.
"I can help persuade those people, but you must sign an agreent with the Federation Governnt; it will be used as a decisive weapon, and before you use it yourself, you also need to notify us in advance!"
Lynch did not hesitate, "No problem!"
Actually, from a certain perspective, this matter not only does not harm Lynch but also has many benefits.
These benefits are intangible, just like... when a child holds the button that can destroy the world, what all the adults have to do is not to intimidate him or punish him, but to ensure he remains happy.
Only when he remains happy will he not press that damned button.
Of course, this analogy is sowhat exaggerated, but the logic is the sa.
Once this sensitive weapon is used, it will encounter nurous diplomatic troubles, so if Lynch can avoid using it, then don’t let him use it.
So what about so minor trouble he encounters... what can be done?
Of course, it will be solved by the governnt!
"Actually...", Lynch seed sowhat hesitant at this mont, "... the technology can be transferred to the military, you know, my love for the Federation is no less than anyone else."
"The strength of the Federation is also beneficial for us rchants."
Mr. Truman laughed after listening, "I’ll convey your opinion to the Ministry of Defense, and they will send soone to discuss it with you."
Initially, Lynch wanted to keep this technology hidden, but after reconsidering, the cluster bomb wasn’t that significant because as the technology of airplanes advances, nearly all countries will research such weapons.
Technological advancent will lead airplanes to develop in two directions: either they have a greater payload or faster flight speed; it’s essentially either of these two trends.
Once the payload reaches a sufficient degree, they can completely replace cluster bombs with small aerial bombs.
Dropping hundreds of bombs at a ti — from a destructive standpoint, it’s almost indistinguishable from cluster bombs, maybe the only difference might be in the ti of explosion.
One detonates forces over a wide area instantly, while the other destroys everything, including buildings, in a short ti.
Even in urban warfare, the value of destroying buildings has more strategic significance than solely destroying forces!
Given that, it’s better not to hide it; instead, exchange this thing for so benefits.
Lynch quickly shifted his thinking, making a decision after weighing the options.
This is the inherent trait that most successful people possess — once they have made a decision, they promptly begin implenting it.
Instead of repeatedly considering the advantages and disadvantages of their actions.
Humans are intelligent beings, and the most terrifying aspect of intelligent beings is their tendency for calculation.
Even a little loss or gain can drag so decisions to a point where they perfectly miss the best opportunity.
Lynch wants benefits: simple, direct, and without causing resentnt.
He put out the strategic-grade weapon and gave it to the military; could the military and the Federation Governnt pretend not to know anything?
No, they couldn’t, because if they truly give nothing, the disappointed would be far more than just Lynch — there would be many more!
After resolving this issue, Mr. Truman felt sowhat sentintal; Lynch never seed to make him feel depressed.
He thought about it many tis and finally ca up with the word "depressed" to describe that frustrating feeling.
It’s not really disappointnt or failure because it was never Lynch as the unreasonable party — it was him, or the Federation Governnt, Congress, even the military.
Lynch could have rejected them, which would only make them feel depressed.
But Lynch never did; he was always able to negotiate or compromise in a suitable manner to resolve these differences, making them instead feel like Lynch was at a loss.
It’s very mysterious.
Mr. Truman attributed this to Lynch’s "trait"; he is a very special person, and there is only one Lynch in the world.
And there will only be one Lynch; there won’t be others.
Even if soone else is nad Lynch, they won’t be him!
He is unique!
