Chapter 501 The Breath of the Future

The problem of food and lodging for nearly ten thousand people is not easy to solve. Fortunately, each ship has its own food, which is enough for them to eat for several months.

Basically, the weapons of the prisoners of the Mi army were confiscated, and then the weapons on the ship could not be used, and they couldn't make trouble if they wanted to.

The weapons and equipment on board cannot be repaired unless they are returned to the factory for overhaul.

The aircraft carrier that turned into a dead fish last time is still vivid in my memory. Now that aircraft carrier has almost been repaired, and now there is an additional ship in the aircraft carrier fleet to be repaired. The repair shop is not short of orders, but the US The maintenance cost is estimated to be enough.

Falcon International didn't abuse them either. They still eat what they should have eaten in the past, and the cooks are still the same as before, but with less freedom.

However, Falcon International's management is not strict, and they are asked to come to the deck every day to let the air go, as long as they don't make trouble, and don't make any actions that make "people" misunderstand.

The "surveillance officers" flying around the battleship are not real people, and they can actually shoot you if you do something illegal.

When seizing control of the battleship, the soldiers of the United States have seen the scene of "doing things according to the rules" of smart weapons. Anyone with a gun will be aimed at the guard, and then as long as the muzzle moves, he will be beaten into a sieve immediately. There is no room for negotiation.

You can accuse them of inhumanity, because they are not human, but you cannot accuse them of deliberately killing people, because the message of persuading surrender has been shouted many times before.

Human fighters may hesitate, but smart weapons will not hesitate. It is you who did not abide by the rules, and there are clear combat videos as evidence.

It is the same now, but the weapon on the drone has been replaced with a non-lethal weapon. After all, it is now guarding the captives, not in a combat state.

Although being attacked by the current weapons can't kill anyone, no one wants to suffer, because whether it is an anesthesia bomb or an electric shock bomb, it will immediately make you lose consciousness, and then someone will come to drag you away.

The people on the ship don't know what happened after they were towed away. Although there are many speculations, everyone who came back said everything was fine, and there was no trace of abuse on their bodies, but they were honest from now on. no.

On the one hand, Falcon International is very active, that is, to announce the living conditions of the prisoners of war, and to provide some communication devices every day, so that the prisoners of war on board can contact their families.

The purpose of announcing the living conditions to the public is to prevent rumors that Falcon International abused prisoners of war. This is not good for the development of the company and affects the company's international reputation. If it wants to develop and grow, such a negative impact cannot be had.

Just like this, there are still news in this area. If you don’t do this, there will be overwhelming negative news. The fact that the United States can’t start from the military doesn’t mean it can’t start from other places.

The only thing is that the captives were somewhat embarrassed during the filming process. After all, the majestic US aircraft carrier fleet has become someone else's captive, and it has to be broadcast, how embarrassing.

As for letting the captives contact their families, heck, this is purely showing the humanistic care of Falcon International.

After the United States and Falcon International entered the negotiation process, all walks of life in the world are waiting for the results of the negotiations. Although the details of the negotiations are not disclosed to the public, you can see the black faces of the United States negotiators who come out of the venue after the negotiations every day. The United States has suffered a lot this time.

If it is a negotiation between countries, there must be some time to wait, but the negotiation between a private company and the country is much faster, especially when the private company takes the initiative.

The ashes of prisoners of war and war dead can be handed over to the United States free of charge. After all, Falcon International is not a terrorist organization and will not ask for ransom. Moreover, Falcon International is now contracted by the Dansu State’s coastal defense, which is regarded as the Dansu State’s navy, so handing over prisoners of war is also a state behavior.

It's just that Falcon International is a private company after all, and this interest issue cannot be negotiated. People can take it away, but warships are out of the question, and warships are indeed the spoils of war.

At the beginning, the United States absolutely did not agree. Although these warships are already lying down, and many electronic equipment have been damaged to varying degrees, they are still world-class warships, not to mention there is an aircraft carrier here. It is a majestic aircraft carrier fleet.

But Falcon International also disagrees. Otherwise, you will pay the prisoners and warships to redeem them. As an essentially private company, it said: Paying money can solve all problems.

It would be nice to be able to hand over the prisoners of war to you for free. If he wants to get the warship for free, what will he do with the expenses incurred by Falcon International for this war.

Moreover, not everyone in the United States expected these warships to come back, so they also had small movements internally.

It is said that it is a world-class warship, but in fact it has not been in service for a short time, and the latest warship of a certain country is like dumplings, and the technological gap with the U.S. Navy is rapidly narrowing. The "old-fashioned" warships of the U.S. can no longer bridge the technological gap. So they urgently need new warships.

The reason for the navy is very good. They are not prepared to take the blame for the defeat. Their reason is that these warships are too old to prevent the EMP attack of Falcon International, so we need new warships.

Arms dealers and shipyards also shouted loudly, saying that if they don’t build new warships, whoever will catch up, so it’s better not to spend that money to buy long-term warships, and it’s the last word to invest money to build new ones.

In fact, in the final analysis, it is still about money. Many arms dealers in the United States are private companies, and they can’t have enough food in their own country. The money for the new 30-year shipbuilding plan has not yet been paid, so how can there be money to buy old warships.

You can get back the face later, think about how to defend against Falcon International's super powerful EMP weapons, with the new warships, the force is even stronger, and it will be fine to take revenge.

The answer they gave after analysis was that the technology of the warship was not advanced enough, so this result was caused. Therefore, lobbying Congress and the president from all aspects, they just said: "Hey, use the money to upgrade the equipment, and add another [-] million yuan , you will be stronger!"

Therefore, with the joint efforts of domestic and foreign countries, the US negotiating team finally signed a series of conditions.

The signing of the final agreement shocked the outside world. The once-surprised country of the United States actually signed such an agreement with a private security company, which was unthinkable before.

Especially after the United States killed the other pole of the world at the end of the last century and became the only superpower in the world, no one would have thought of such a day.

Is this the so-called prosperity and decline?However, it has not been 30 years since the United States became the only superpower in the world.

Or is this what Earth will look like in the future?
After all, there is only more than a month away from the legendary future 2020.

And this incident has also taught other countries a lesson. Although the theory of only weapons is not 100% correct, with the development of science and technology, the technological content of weapons is becoming more and more important. This is an undisguised fact.

Take this incident as an example, if it weren’t for the fact that the radars on the US ships could not detect the ambush of the deep-sea fleet in advance, the fleet’s fire control radar could not lock the missiles launched by the deep-sea fleet well, and all kinds of decoys would not be able to fool the flying missiles , EMP defense cannot prevent the EMP attack of the deep-sea fleet, and the aircraft carrier fleet of the United States will not become that bird.

If the technological level of the U.S. aircraft carrier fleet was similar to that of the Falcon International Deep Sea Fleet at that time, it is really not sure who will fight who. Maybe the U.S. can continue to walk sideways at sea.

Therefore, although many countries say no to it, they secretly increased their investment in this area and started an arms race, overt or covert.

Although there have been many arms races in history, this is the first time we have seen an arms race caused by private companies developing too fast, surpassing the country in force, and putting enormous pressure on many countries.

This is how the future of science and technology came about. If you don’t develop your own economy and technology well, you always go out to make troubles, and if you are surpassed by others, you can chase after it.
