Chapter 707 Peace Treaty

"In fact, we don't plan to equip too many laser satellites. We will fund research and development upgrades, but the final number of operational satellites will be maintained within 5, not too many."

Lu Jianfei first revealed a big secret that made Lin Ju smack his tongue, and then continued the previous topic:

"We have two conditions, reducing the number of nuclear submarines and opening up commercial trade protection. In exchange for these two conditions, China will not have more than 5 laser anti-missile satellites in the next 10 years, and Amei will not have more than 5 laser anti-missile satellites before 2030.

The definition standard for laser anti-missile satellites is that the light source power exceeds 1 megawatt. If the power cannot be determined, the mass is determined to be more than 10 tons, and all spacecraft within the first cosmic speed range.

As for the laser smelting satellites used by the United Mining, they need to be jointly supervised by the two countries, and they must not have the ability to maneuver to low-Earth orbit, and the number must not exceed 3."

The primary purpose of exchanging economic benefits is one of the transaction rules formulated by the above.

In the view of the leaders and think tank researchers above, even if mankind is facing an unprecedented risk of war, the situation will remain controllable for a considerable period of time, and the possibility of a large-scale civil war on Earth is very low.

In this situation, it is unnecessary to devote too much energy to the military. As long as the balance of power can be roughly balanced, the two sides can check and balance each other and prevent one side from taking risks.

If the conditions are ideal, Ame also agrees to a large-scale disarmament, and the speed of upgrading its own weapons can be slowed down. It is better to shift attention to space.

Although forgetting war will lead to danger, if the war is destined not to start, and you are desperately preparing for war, everyone has seen what the outcome will be thirty years ago.

And our think tank believes that Ame will not want to fight another war, and both sides are more restrained in this matter.

It is definitely a good deal to use the reduction of weapons that is beneficial to itself in exchange for visible and tangible economic benefits, not to mention that Ame is also required to reduce the number of nuclear submarines.

As long as Ame agrees or is willing to negotiate on this, it means that the other party is also unwilling to see the war, so our strategy is feasible and correct.

After more than 20 years of rapid development, China's economy is about to reach its peak, but passing this peak means a downhill road. The market has become the most critical issue in the future, and preparations must be made early.

Especially now that we need to accumulate funds for large-scale investment in space, we must lay a good foundation as much as possible before we can explode.

Lu Jianfei explained as clearly as possible. He didn't want Lin Ju to have any objections, but the latter didn't seem to react much.

This is actually not much different from part of the situation expected by the base. The base has always believed that although it is a fantasy to expect human unity, large-scale melee is unlikely to happen.

But he found a problem that was not mentioned:

"Control the power and number of laser weapons, what about spacecraft? We will definitely go to Mars and Titan in 10 years. It is impossible not to bring high-power laser weapons. They are the only high-energy weapons we have like nuclear bombs."

"So this is an exception."

"Although we have not reached any specific restrictions in this regard, we have established a basic principle: no matter what attitude we decide to take to deal with alien crises, it is absolutely necessary to develop space power.

Therefore, space battleships - or something else, are always unlimited in their power to fight against alien civilizations, otherwise they will tie their own hands and feet."

"But if we develop spacecraft with powerful weapons, it will be easy to attack the earth, From this perspective, the previous restrictions are meaningless. "

Lu Jianfei nodded, did not refute Lin Ju's words, and then explained:

"So this is just a basic principle. In practice, these offensive spacecraft are not allowed to be deployed within a certain range. I think it is likely to be limited to outside the asteroid belt, or the orbit of Mars.

The construction process must be strictly supervised, and it is best to manufacture or assemble on Mars. After the manufacturing is completed, the offensive parts must leave the earth quickly under supervision and be sent to Mars or other planets before they are allowed to be assembled on the spacecraft. All high-energy weapons must be registered.

In this way, even if the Martian spacecraft rushes back to the earth, it will take at least several months, and either party on the earth will have enough time to deal with it. "

Manufacturing or assembling on Mars with local materials? This is too difficult.

Lin Ju just thought of the intention behind this question:

If humans do not even have these capabilities, the space force they build may not be able to shoulder the task of resisting alien civilizations or conducting escape operations.

Even if this still creates many loopholes, but that time will be at least 10 or 20 years later, and we need to believe in the wisdom of later generations.

Ten years is long enough for an agreement to be effective. It took the Third Reich only ten years to increase its annual production from 500,000 marks for a loaf of bread to 8,000 aircraft.

Lin Ju:

"To develop space power, we need not only technology, but also strong industrial capacity. The current ones are not enough. Even if we have advanced technology, it is impossible to accelerate the development of the entire society. The real warship manufacturing will be at least ten years later."

"This is even more true for Ame. Fortunately, we have ensured at least ten years of peaceful development. What we need to do during this period is to fully enhance technology and industrial capacity. There will be no hot war, and there will be no particularly serious incidents that interfere with trade and economy.

The next 10 years are very important. Once this stage is over, no matter whether the alien civilization is malicious or benevolent, we will fully develop space power for at least several decades until we think we have the minimum self-protection ability. "

Lu Jianfei did not say the second half of his sentence, that is, if it can be thoroughly confirmed that the alien civilization is hostile to humans, the state of preparation will continue until the day the war breaks out.

Just like the world war, humans have never had such experience before. Even think tanks have to take care of the present for 10 or 5 years. No one knows what will happen decades later.

Lin Ju: "Then we have to live as long as possible, otherwise future humans may think that alien civilizations don't matter and just concentrate on enjoying it. "

Lu Jianfei: "At least you are the most likely person to see that day. "

The atmosphere became somewhat inexplicably sad when the topic of life and death was changed. On the scale of the universe, human life is too short, and a generation is even shorter. The duration of a cosmic war may even be enough for the rise and fall of a country.

When the breadth of thinking jumps out of the earth, everything we usually know seems to be eclipsed and meaningless.

Both of them were silent for a while, not knowing what they were thinking, and then Lin Ju said:

"Let's go, General Lu, I will give you the permission to enter here, and you can directly check it if you want. "
