Can You Make A Nuclear Weapons Too?

Chapter 217

[···········.]

His posture, which had been leaning his back on the chair, was naturally corrected.

Because Liam’s voice, which had a lot of energy, had a strange feeling.

However, perhaps he had taken the meaning of silence differently, he hurriedly continues.

– Oh my, is this a problem you didn’t know about?

[Ah, not really, but I think the government’s action was a little faster than I expected.]

– Then, as expected, it is a problem that Chairman Jin was aware of.

There was a feeling of sadness in the way he spoke.

It must have been a feeling he could have.

In fact, I was hiding the important fact when he was the first to tell me what could be information.

As he was about to explain the situation, his words continued again.

– It’s not that I don’t understand. It must not have been easy for Chairman Jin to deliver such news to me.

[Not that it wasn’t easy to deliver the news, but because I wasn’t even sure that the decision would actually be made.]

– So you understand. In fact, there were rumors circulating here too, but I did not know that the Korean government would really decide to withdraw.

Liam’s tone seemed to be quite surprising.

After all, the recent president’s tough attitude has made it difficult for even me to adapt.

The good news is that the toughness did not come from arrogance and self-will, which made it easier for me to plan for the future.

To be honest, there is nothing more tiring than being the president of a person who has a strong stubbornness and can’t make a proper judgment when it comes to decisive things.

-By the way, the government’s response doesn’t seem to be very negative, so that’s a good thing.

[···········.]

He was silent again at his next words.

Isn’t this a negative reaction to the fact that the troops are being withdrawn immediately?

this is a little bit weird

When he asks a question with a puzzled mind, he implicitly continues.

– What other reason could be more convincing than not knowing when war might strike on the Korean Peninsula? In fact, that’s why the White House seems to be reimagining the East Asian strategy.

[Are you rethinking your strategy?]

-What has happened is that you are going to make Korea the first line of defense for China. To do that, of course, the repatriation of the troops will be necessary, so it is the will to tolerate it.

[···········.]

It wasn’t particularly surprising that we were going to use us as a card against China.

Other than that, the recent dispute between us and China could have given the United States an opportunity to change its mind quite a bit.

Liam’s words continued again, as a bitter smile was about to form.

-Anyway, according to South Korea’s measures, the United States seems to have decided to withdraw, leaving only the troops to maintain minimum security and educate the new Iraqi government.

[Of course it is. In a situation that is rapidly regaining stability like now, a continuous presence will only incur unnecessary costs.]

– That’s right, I mean, but what I really want to tell you is from now on.

[···········.]

-Chairman Jin, how do you think the US military will dispose of the surplus equipment of US troops stationed in Iraq?

His eyes lit up at those words.

Come to think of it, in the case of the US military, surplus equipment is often donated in the process of withdrawing troops stationed abroad.

For other reasons, including increased operating costs due to oversupply.

However, when I ask him a hint, he answers with a smile.

-That’s right, most of the equipment is likely to be donated locally, but I was wondering if the Korean government would be interested.

[If it’s surplus equipment…are Polar Bears included?]

-Isn’t that obvious? The number of Polar Bears scattered in Iraq alone is 30,000. Aside from the issue of repatriating them to their home country, considering the maintenance costs in the future, there is a high possibility that they will probably give up quite a lot of quantity. By doing…

[If you do, the 30,000 Polar Bears should be taken over by our military.]

As soon as I spit out a reply, I heard laughter from the other side.

As if he knew it would.

Now that I see it, it seems that he was calling with that in mind from the beginning.

– That’s why I called. If it’s Chairman Jin. No, I thought the Korean government would of course be interested.

[What is that…]

– But, is that the government’s will? Or is it only Chairman Jin’s thoughts? Wouldn’t it be helpful for me to know that too.

He paused for a moment at the sudden return of his question.

In fact, what’s the problem with receiving donations, because if the quantity is 30,000 units each, the budget for the subsequent repair work may be a problem for our government as well. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

In the end, I asked for permission to give me some time using the phone call with the government as an excuse, and after that, I quickly tried to talk to the Blue House and other military officials.

“Yes, what I want to say first is that with that amount, we will be able to deploy Polar Bears not only in our mobile corps but also in mechanized units at once.

– From our point of view, this is a story that could only be possible in a dream. But wouldn’t the cost of the repair be too high?

Again, the president was the first to worry about the budget.

After all, as the head of the country, it was a natural reaction.

However, when the call came back after a while, the attitude was different.

– According to the defense minister, in the case of the Polar Bear in Iraq, the repair cost would not be very high. Is it true?

“It must be very likely. Unlike other equipment in the US military, most of the Polar Bears have not been produced for a long time.”

-If you do, we will bring it to you. No, President Jin, please do your best so that we can receive the donation at any cost.

Click!

I clenched my fists and put the phone down.

To be honest, it would have been better if Jaewoo produced and delivered those 30,000 units to the military, but that is absurd.

Rather, if we bring it in and repair it, we will do our own thing. Also, the government is not as good as the government.

“Hmm······.”

But then, a question came to mind.

I mean, even if I understood, the US government would not have looked nice to us to withdraw our troops.

Why would you want to do this kind of favor in that situation?

[President Liam?]

Thoughts lead straight to action.

Perhaps it was an expected question, Liam’s tone of voice became extremely cautious.

-That’s actually… well, it’s good. I’ll be honest. The White House seems to be planning to fill the vacancy of the South Korean military with the Self-Defense Forces. Therefore, you can think of the donation of polybear as a means to stave off a kind of backlash from Korea. As Chairman Jin knows, the issue of dispatching the Self-Defense Forces is not a sensitive area for the Korean government.

[···········.]

I shook my head at those words.

There is nothing free in the world.

However, dispatching the Self-Defense Forces does not mean that only the United States wants it.

I wonder what the hell Japan was thinking in sympathizing with it.

‘No matter how far-right the far-right fought, how did they come to a national consensus?’

fuck.

As I was pondering my thoughts, I suddenly burst into laughter.

Regardless of what changes are taking place in Japan, I have already imagined the consequences of their decisions.

No matter how stabilizing it is, there are still rebels in Iraq.

Will the Self-Defense Forces be able to withstand them?

-Actually, the intention of the White House is somewhat understandable to me. After all, Iraq has entered a period of stability, so wouldn’t it be possible to play the role of a stabilization force even with the Self-Defense Forces?

[I do not know······.]

At that, he spit out a harsh reply.

As if he misunderstood his intentions, Liam continued his words.

– If the post-war reconstruction project is something that bothers you, you don’t have to worry about it. Even if they dispatch troops, Japan will not have a share in the post-war Iraq war.

That was natural.

You can’t just let the bear run the trick and let the king take the money.

He tries to nod his head involuntarily, forgetting that the opponent is not in front of him, but his excuses follow again.

-To be honest, I was against it. However, the conditions that Japan offered to step forward were too attractive, so this time, it was unable to dissuade the government.

[···········.]

-Apart from other things, there is no reason to reject the idea of ​​increasing the purchase quantity of the F35 to a maximum of 240 units immediately. In addition, even more so if Nokid was selected as a partner in the next stealth fighter development project.

After listening to it, I understood the situation.

Seriously, even Liam would be shaken by a paycheck of that size.

But I think Japanese politicians are probably crazy.

If the F35 is 240 units, do you not calculate how much it will consume just for the annual operating cost?

The operating cost is already high, so even after just a decade or so, you will have to pour money equivalent to the cost of the introduction.

No, second to that, what about the decline in utilization?

No matter how much maintenance rights are obtained, the maintenance of major parts will be handled by Nokid.

How are you going to view the resulting decline in the utilization rate?

‘On a subject that even the F-15 can’t handle right now…’

In hindsight, that’s a problem.

For the time being, Boeing cannot afford to pay attention to maintenance of the F-15.

In a situation where the problem of more than 200 F-15Js could not be solved.

‘Well, that’s it…’

As I deepened my thoughts, I burst out laughing again.

Because the problems facing Japan have nothing to do with me.

No, on the contrary, for me, it is something that should be welcomed.

If that’s the case, then the Yukjadae and the Moat will become dog hairs in the future.

[I don’t know anything else, but I think we should inform our government about the dispatch of the Self-Defense Forces. Anyway, thanks for the news.]

I hung up the phone, holding back my laughter.

Afterwards, I was impatient as I thought that the Korean government would oppose the measures of the United States, but fortunately, there was a reassuring response in the phone call with the president that followed.

-If the Self-Defense Forces do such a shovel, we are welcome.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

“right. That’s a shovel to heaven.”

******

[The government has decided to withdraw most of its troops stationed in Iraq. The withdrawal schedule has been decided by the end of this year […]

Shortly thereafter, the full-scale withdrawal of our troops dispatched to Iraq began.

Most of the personnel except for the troops currently transferred to Saudi Arabia and some engineering units.

The size of the transport fleet was truly enormous, as they had to carry the supplies donated by the United States along with them.

[The government has decided to supply the combat vehicles donated by the US military to the front-line units after undergoing repair work for a while. The repair cost is not high since the quantity is about 30,000 units, but…]

Shouldn’t it be from the US, or from Japan?

In any case, the unexpected income will result in a huge increase in our power.

3,000 units.

In fact, at that size, it goes beyond covering the entire Mobile Corps, and it will also benefit from any number of armored units in the future. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

“Are you in good shape?”

Director Kim Young-gi shone as he watched the state of the Polar Bears arriving one after another.

As if local maintenance was done well, the main parts and engine are still in good condition.

If this is the case, the repair cost will not be a big burden.

“Even so, it would be quite expensive to renovate all 30,000 cars.”

Of course, the burden from the overwhelming quantity could not be ignored.

In particular, it was the part of modifying bulletproof armor to suit our circumstances.

As for the installation of other additional weapons.

However, the number of weapons added is only a fraction.

Also, when it comes to the repair of the gloves, the solution would be that we weren’t playing in the meantime.

Through continuous research on recombination of materials, the production yield of bulletproof materials has been raised by more than 60%.

[Some soldiers of the Self-Defense Forces were dispatched on behalf of our military to maintain peace in Iraq this morning.]

After some time, Japan began dispatching the Self-Defense Forces in earnest.

Combat equipment and vehicles that I saw for the first time when it was developed. And their broadcasts highlighting the other armed forces.

It’s clear that they intend to show off their power, but in my view, it’s just a sigh.

Arms aside. How can it be so easy for a unit that includes a special operations force to appear clumsy like that?

In particular, that expression and the age of too high a person to be pushed back.

In case something really happens. Will those clumsy troops be able to withstand the tough battle in the desert?

Can you make nuclear weapons too?-218
