Chapter 1342: Direct Attack on the West Coast, Allied Nations Surprised
Elder Ye was beside himself with excitement. If Chen Jun's predictions were true, Yan's national defense would undoubtedly have achieved a qualitative leap. This meant Yan would have a stronger voice and greater deterrent power on the international stage. "It's called a hacker missile, right? When can it be launched?" Elder Ye asked impatiently, his eyes gleaming with excitement and anticipation.
"Right now!" Chen Jun's answer was concise and decisive, his voice revealing confidence and composure.
"Ah..." Mr. Ye couldn't help but be stunned. He originally thought that it would take some time to prepare, but he didn't expect that as soon as he arrived at the base, everything was ready, just waiting for the east wind.
Chen Jun went on to say: "This time we will use missiles to teach them a good lesson. This is a missile that has never been seen before in the world. It can be called the ultimate version of the Dongfeng series. It is just right to use this to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and let the world see the strength of our Yan Country." His eyes were firm and fiery.
With Professor Ye excited, Chen Jun invited him into the lab. The moment he stepped into the lab, he was overwhelmed by a tense and solemn atmosphere. Inside, everyone was completely absorbed in their work, busily and systematically completing the final steps. The instruments flashed various indicators and emitted a gentle hum, as if playing a tense symphony.
When Mr. Xu saw Chen Jun and the commander come in, he immediately stepped forward, saluted with an upright posture, and said in a loud voice, "Hello, Commander!"
Mr. Ye smiled and waved his hand, saying kindly, "Comrades, thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard. I came at the right time. The missiles have been installed. I was just about to ask for instructions on where to hit the first missile." Old Xu said, his eyes revealing his concentration on the mission and respect for his leader.
Chen Jun immediately stepped forward, pointed at the map and said, "Beautiful Country, the most prosperous west coast, here... launch missiles at this place." His finger landed firmly on a location on the map, his eyes revealing determination.
Following the map Chen Jun pointed out, Old Xu and the others were instantly stunned, their mouths wide open in astonishment. "Wow, this is a direct attack on the United States. You know, the United States is the most powerful hegemon in the world today, and has always been domineering internationally." This decision undoubtedly announced Yan Nation's tough stance to the world.
"Bomb their city center?" Old Xu couldn't help but ask, with a hint of hesitation and surprise in his voice.
Chen Jun raised his eyebrows and said with a firm look: "It hasn't reached that level yet. It will hit a place dozens of kilometers away from their city, causing waves of at least dozens of meters, similar to the effect of a tsunami. So, increase the fuel and increase the destructive power. What do you think, don't you dare?" There was a hint of provocation in his words, but it was also an encouragement to the scientific research team.
The three Xu brothers exchanged wry smiles. It wasn't that they didn't dare. Deep down, they were all branded with hatred for the invaders, a passion to fight the Western powers against their own poverty. It was just that this day had arrived so suddenly, and this momentous decision had left them feeling a bit bewildered despite their excitement.
Of course, it didn't take long for the three of them to react. They knew full well that this was for the dignity and interests of the nation. They immediately saluted Elder Ye and quickly followed Chen Jun's instructions to adjust the direction of the missile launch. Their movements were skillful and swift, their eyes filled with a sense of mission.
Time passed little by little in the tense atmosphere.
"Report, the missile has entered the missile silo and entered the final test. Please prepare and give instructions for the launch." A technician walked quickly to Mr. Ye and Chen Jun and reported loudly.
Upon hearing this, the air in the entire laboratory seemed to heat up, and everyone's heart was filled with tension and anticipation. Chen Jun smiled and said to Mr. Ye, "Captain, since we're here, why don't you give us the instructions?" His eyes were filled with respect for Mr. Ye.
But Mr. Ye shook his head and said seriously: "No, you are the chief engineer, you are the protagonist today, I am just a bystander, you give the orders!" Mr. Ye is well aware of Chen Jun's core position in this scientific research project, and he believes in his ability and decision-making.
Chen Jun smiled and nodded, not refusing. He walked steadily into the missile launch lab and stood beside the launch pad, quietly waiting for the commissioning work to be completed. His eyes were focused and calm, as if at this moment, the entire world consisted only of him and the launch pad before him.
More than ten minutes passed...
"Report, Comrade Commander, the missile debugging has been completed. Please give the order." The technician reported again with a hint of excitement in his voice.
Chen Jun nodded to Mr. Ye, who immediately waved his hand, indicating that he could give the order and that he had approved the operation on behalf of the military.
The next moment, Chen Jun immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and said loudly and firmly: "Pass the order, launch missiles at the western coastline of the United States, about ten kilometers away from the coastal area of the city center." His voice echoed in the laboratory, full of majesty.
"Received!" A clear response came from the intercom.
The next moment, everyone in the lab quickly sprang into action, manipulating the radar to lock onto the location indicated by Chen Jun. Simultaneously, a series of commands began to be precisely transmitted into the missile's chip, forming a memory. This chip was no simple matter; it was the "smart brain" of Dongfeng Express, ensuring its mission was accomplished. It would remotely communicate with the Beidou system in the air, accurately locking onto the missile's location and preventing any errors.
"Comrade Chief, the position has been locked. Please give us your instructions." The technician reported again, his eyes full of anticipation.
The next moment, Chen Jun's eyes widened, blazing with fury like thunder. A roar erupted from his mouth: "Fire..." The sound, like the roar of a sea lion, echoed throughout the command room, seemingly carrying boundless power. Simultaneously, the dark launch button, struck by Chen Jun's powerful fist, emitted a resounding mortar sound, as if cheering on the missile about to be launched.
In an instant, it was as if a fire dragon, buried beneath the earth, awakened and unleashed a blazing fire. Amidst the rising orange flames, the missile, like a sharp sword, plunged into the sky with the force of thunder. The surrounding air was twisted by this overwhelming force, the momentum was astonishing. A wave of heat washed over them, leaving them feeling an incomparable shock.
"Whoosh..." The missile soared into the air, and at a certain altitude, it spontaneously disintegrated. The remaining missile body, like a sword unsheathed, tore through the air at an even faster speed, streaking away. In the sunlight, the missile trailed a long tail of flame, like a meteor streaking across the sky.
In the sight of Chen Jun and the others, the missile quickly transformed into a meteor-like flash of fire, and in a flash, it disappeared from everyone's sight. Although no trace of the missile was left in the sky, it had already embarked on its journey, carrying the dignity and power of the Yan Kingdom.
"This speed is even faster than the previous Dongfeng 5C! Wow, this speed... is completely beyond my imagination. I can't afford to offend it. How does it compare to the speed of the Sky Fortress?" Ye Lao exclaimed in amazement, his mouth wide open. His eyes were fixed on the direction where the missile disappeared, as if he was still savoring the shocking scene.
Chen Jun said: "At the moment, it is not as good as the Sky Fortress, but this is just the beginning. In the future, it will definitely surpass the Sky Fortress." His eyes were full of confidence and expectations for the future development of scientific research.
"This is already exaggerated. I dare say that even if the speed of the most powerful missile in the world is doubled, it still cannot catch up with our missile. Chen Jun, you have created a miracle. I can't wait to see the true faces of the United States. For so many years, they have been pretending to be the world police. This time, the hat will probably be taken off by us." Mr. Ye said excitedly, his face filled with excitement and pride, as if he had already seen the frustrated look of the United States.
At this moment, he was so excited that he wanted to hug the missile in front of him to express his inner joy.
Nearby, the scientists, who had been working overtime for a month, wore fatigue on their faces, but their eyes revealed an uncontrollable excitement. They seemed to see the future of Yan Nation, a nation poised to ascend to the top of the world in international standing. Indeed, in their minds, this wasn't a rise, but a return to the top, for historically, Yan Nation had always been number one in the world. For years, the Yan people had endured much hardship and indignity to prepare for this day, but now, they refused to endure it any longer. They knew that blindly tolerating would only embolden the enemy; stopping war with force was the only way forward.
"Let the missile fly for a while, Chief, let's go have some tea and chat first." Chen Jun said to Mr. Ye with a smile. He wanted Mr. Ye to relax while waiting.
Elder Ye was startled for a moment before being dragged by Chen Jun to the lounge. There, they drank tea and chatted while watching the missile's flight through the screen. On the screen, the missile had already breached the Yan Nation's borders, rapidly traveling along the coastal plain. Even at a distance from the water, its speed was so great that waves appeared everywhere it passed.
The split waves seemed like the magnificent traces left by missiles, or like the hands of immortals, crushing the chaotic clouds.
Time passed little by little.
Just as the missile approached the west coast of the United States, the technicians here began to control the missile to carry out the final procedure... detonation!
Chen Jun, Ye Lao, and the others were all restless at this moment. They stood up abruptly, their eyes fixed on the big screen, their eyes full of eagerness, their palms sweating, their hearts pounding with anticipation and anxiety. After all, at this distance, the United States would surely have discovered the missile intrusion. If they intercepted the missile within this time, their original plan would fail, giving others an excuse.
"They were unable to intercept the missiles. They didn't even know that our missiles had flown to their doorstep and detonated successfully." Chen Jun said calmly, but his eyes revealed a subtle nervousness.
As Chen Jun spoke, a resounding boom echoed from the distant west coast of the beautiful nation. It felt as if the very heavens and earth trembled. Immediately afterwards, a tsunami wave, over thirty meters high, formed and violently crashed towards the bustling coastal city. Nearby buildings bore the brunt of the impact, their impact like small boats on the raging waves, teetering on the brink of collapse. Countless glass windows shattered with a crackling sound, and the fragments fell like snowflakes.
Although this process only lasted a few minutes, the shock it caused spread throughout the United States. This coastline is the most prosperous area in the United States, with numerous commercial centers and a dense population.
After such an explosion, local residents thought a tsunami had hit, and screams of fear instantly resounded throughout the city. People fled in panic, and the streets were in chaos.
After emergency rescue efforts were underway in various locations, it was finally discovered that this was a sudden attack. Immediately, the local area fell into a huge panic. The American army, which is always slow to respond to natural disasters, did not dare to neglect it and activated emergency equipment and arrived one after another...
At the same time, the troops at various military bases were just gathering. The Air Force had received the order immediately that the enemy was attacking and entered a level one combat readiness state. This was because in the 200 years since the founding of their country, no country had ever dared to directly attack their homeland. Even the attack in World War II was far away in the ocean.
It can be said that the people of the United States have not felt the horror of war happening to themselves since the founding of the country. Now, missiles have exploded directly at their doorstep. What does this mean?
As the world hegemon, they actually received a provocation, and their allies were greatly surprised.
White Building, emergency meeting.
Huangmao had already watched the video of the explosion. He was shaking his head and still couldn't believe what he saw. However, judging from the mushroom cloud formed by the explosion and the scene, this was not a tsunami at all, but a huge wave caused by a missile.
"Which country dares to launch missiles against our west coast?"
The defense official responded: "The enemy's missile was too fast, leaving us no time to react. The satellite department is still unable to trace the source, so we have to wait."
Upon hearing this, Huangmao flew into a rage, slamming the table and shouting, "The enemy's missiles have already exploded at our borders, and the relevant departments have not reacted at all. When did our troops fall so far behind? Why couldn't they intercept them in advance? We didn't even have any advance warning?"
This is indeed the crux of the matter. All the high-ranking people present were stunned by the question. They couldn't figure out why. The United States has the most complete satellite system in the world, which can detect missile attacks in advance. However, when the missiles were detonated at their doorstep, the relevant departments did not react?
Allied countries were surprised and had no more arguments.
