Chapter 733 - Taunt (1/2)
"Simple, I think… right now… Do you have about two or three nuclear power source in hand?" said Jiang Fei.
"Yeah, we do. But powering up three fighters is not something that simple!" said Han Tianyu.
"Stay with me. I'm not asking you to actually have enough power to engage in a real fight. I only wanted you to make a presentation, not a demonstration."
"What the hell is that supposed to mean?" Han Tianyu frowned.
"Heh. Presentation, not actual fights. I want you to present the power that we currently have! Make it big! Make it bold!" said Jiang Fei with a smirk.
"I don't get it…"
"Make a public statement to the Americans. Say that China has developed a new breed of Fighter Jets that are 100 times faster than those that the Americans have made. Tell them to step down the stage. If they don't, propose a one-on-one fight!" said Jiang Fei.
"I get it! I understand!" cried Han Tianyu after he had given it some thought. Han Tianyu was not a stupid old man. He was a cunning businessman and he understood what Jiang Fei was planning to do.
The current main problem with China's Military force was the lack of power source and the technology to develop a better power source. Even so, merely getting a few fighter jets to fly around was achievable.
Jiang Fei plan was to have a one-on-one fight with the Americans. Once they saw how powerful China had become in developing better jets than they could, the Americans would surely halt their attempt to attack and focus on gathering intel on the newly developed jets.
With careful bait placement, the Americans would obtain falsified information. They would know that China had very little fighters in hand as well as the problem of the power source. They would then be ready to strike China. By then, Jiang Fei might have already produced the weapons that China had requested of him to strike them back!
"It's risky, but I like it!" said Han Tianyu as he gave Jiang Fei a thumb's up.
"But of course!" said Jiang Fei as he snickered. Jiang Fei might not be good in planning a war but boasting and scaring others was his forte!
"It's on. I will make it happen!" said Han Tianyu. He picked up a piece of sandwich on the table and quickly left the room without even saying goodbye.
The plan was huge and required the approval of the higher-ups in the government. Fortunately, given that the situation was at a tipping point, the plan was approved without discussion.
The plan got to work as quickly as Han Tianyu got back to the military base. The first step of the plan was to find an elite pilot that could fly the alien machine. The best pilot amongst the top pilots in China was selected. The selection process would take some time but even if they could find a pilot at that very second, there was still the problem of a lack of power source.
Since the plan was at the highest on the priority list, another branch of the military force had halted the production of Androids to spare a few nuclear-powered batteries to make a total of five nuclear-powered battery packs. Three of these battery packs would be used for actual weapon's presentation while two of them would be used for training.
When everything was ready for the pilot to fly it, Han Tianyu and the rest of the officers had found out that the alien machines were not as powerful as Jiang Fei had described.
The speed of the fighter jets was only, at most, two times faster than the current fastest fighter jets. The second problem was the fighter's weapon. Although it did have a powerful particle beam cannon that could instantly destroy any target locked, the fighter jet had only very limited rounds. Two shots of them would immediately deplete half of the battery!
