Chapter 345: Strategy and Tactics of the Small People (2)
The Korean-French War went in a direction no one expected.
When China declared war, people were terrified that World War III could break out.
The French-Korean War and the Russian-Korean War.
Now that China has stepped in, the United States has no choice but to get involved, and at this point, it could be called a world war.
China eventually would not be able to handle the United States and would engage in nuclear threats with Russia.
“If this continues, won’t it really escalate into a nuclear war?”
However, the United States was suffering from internal divisions over responsibility for the America Treaty, and China was achieving overwhelming results against the Korean military.
The world did not take China’s announcement that it had shot down 120 F-22s at face value.
“The number of kills would be in the double digits, and there were probably one or two F-22s mixed in.”
“But isn’t the Chinese Air Force stronger than we thought? The Korean Air Force must be formidable as well, but they’re overwhelming us so easily.”
“It’s the Navy, not the Air Force.”
The world has come to believe that the Chinese military is stronger than expected.
But I did not predict Korea’s disadvantage.
“Korea kicked Britain out of the British Isles. Not directly, but only by supporting Ireland from behind.”
“Maybe it won’t lead to a nuclear war. South Korea is also a nuclear power, right?”
“South Korea is a country that possesses hydrogen bombs, not nuclear weapons.”
“Anyway, since it uses nuclear fusion, it must be considered a nuclear weapon. Is nuclear fission the only nuclear weapon?”
In any case, after the first battle, the French government in exile gained confidence.
The French, while somewhat reassured, were deeply offended by the fact that their own land was being defiled by the wars of the Orientals.
“Our proud French soil is being ruined by the war games of the yellow monkeys!”
“Ah, France! My great country, which I love! How sad, how sad!”
“How incompetent is the Elysee Palace that it can do nothing and just take the beating? And is it relying solely on the country of the yellow monkeys to wage war?”
“The Elysee Palace is now in the sea. It is being kidnapped by a new imperialist state in the East.”
And then another aerial battle broke out between South Korean and Chinese forces.
When footage of an aerial battle, shot at close range by a French journalist who risked his life, was released, morale throughout France soared.
“That’s it! That’s it!”
“What? Those Chinese guys, they’re pretty bad, aren’t they?”
“I ignored it because it was a Chinese-made fighter jet, but it turned out to be nothing to be laughed at.”
Footage of the engagement showed a number of South Korean fighter jets crashing helplessly.
Not even a single pilot was seen successfully escaping.
“What? Why aren’t the Korean fighter jets doing emergency evacuation?”
“I heard something. Korean pilots consider losing their aircraft to be the most shameful thing. So they would rather die with their aircraft than abandon it and make an emergency ejection.”
“There’s an air force that operates under such a crazy doctrine?”
“I told you, it’s the Navy, not the Air Force. Anyway, it’s a tradition not to abandon aircraft because it’s difficult to get promoted and get a job at a civilian airline after retirement.”
“It’s terrible, it’s terrible.”
In fact, there was no emergency exit because the pilot was not actually on board, but not knowing that fact only led to a great misunderstanding.
“Hey, that’s not true. In a training situation, it’s natural to have to protect civilian areas, so that’s understandable, but in a combat situation, you hold out until the end and don’t escape in order to protect your aircraft? No amount of retard military would do something like that.”
“But if it’s not like that, then it doesn’t make sense.”
“I heard that Korea has a very serious defense corruption problem. The fighter jet manufacturer colluded with the Ministry of National Defense to commit corruption.”
“Defense corruption?”
“In any case, Korean pilots cannot abandon their aircraft during training and will die together with them. Then, where will the fighter jet manufacturers embezzle their money?”
“Are you saying that the emergency escape device is just a rough draft? Because it won’t be used anyway?”
“That’s right.”
The Chinese army declared a grand victory after a successful second battle.
However, what is questionable is that the specific details of the criminal record were not disclosed.
It was different from the first engagement where they made a big fuss about shooting down 120 F-22s.
Rather, the results of the engagement came from the Korean side.
“Our military lost 80 F-35 fighter jets worth 90 billion won, equipped with weapons worth about 10 billion won. Fortunately, the pilots successfully escaped and were all rescued. Please note that there was significant material damage, but no casualties. Our military is adopting a strategy and tactic to save as many soldiers as possible, even if it means losing all of the expensive weapons.”
In short, the argument was that Korea suffered great material damage due to its humanitarian operation, but was in no way inferior in military power.
“Our forces did not suffer a single casualty, but the enemy suffered at least dozens of casualties.”
Families of soldiers who had lost their loved ones in the battlefield were relieved by the South Korean military’s announcement.
The Chinese were wildly delighted, but at the same time they were mocking the Korean army.
“Look at them talking about casualties because they are no match in aerial combat. This is just like a country of small-minded people.”
“The Korean military is said to have so much corruption in defense that their emergency escape devices are just empty shells. In the footage of the shootdown, not a single pilot escaped. The Korean military is lying right now.”
“My great Chinese brother! Just how far does your fighting prowess extend?”
And then the third engagement occurred.
Unlike the second battle, this time China hurriedly announced the results of the battle first.
“Our People’s Liberation Army Air Force succeeded in shooting down all 19 of the ROK Army’s KF-16s.”
In response, the Korean military announced the results of the engagement as if to refute the claims.
“We lost 12 F-35s and 25 KF-16s worth 90 billion won, armed with 12 billion won worth of weapons, but there were no casualties. We also achieved the strategic goal of destroying the supply base of the French ground forces… … .”
This confused the Chinese and the French.
-What? Who’s right now?
-South Korea claims to have lost 37 fighters, including two types of fighters, while China claims to have shot down 19 KF-16s. Who is right?
– It looks like China miscalculated the results of the engagement. Since Korea would not have exaggerated the damage, the loss of 37 ships must be correct.
-The Chinese Air Force is more powerful than we thought. It has an overwhelming advantage over South Korea.
– No matter how I think about it, the fact that they lost 120 F-22s in the first battle is a lie exaggerated by China. But considering that they continued to win against the F-35 in the second and third battles, I guess China’s J-20 is more powerful than we thought?
-I don’t know about the F-22, but I think the J-20 is a superior aircraft to the F-35.
* * *
After the first battle, China paid 50 trillion won to Ha Su-yeong on the condition that he maintain radioactive contamination of the upper reaches of the Yangtze River.
The Yuan and the Dollar were rejected, and only gold was accepted.
The amount was calculated based on the F-22 fighter jet release price (KRW 200 billion) for 120 units at an annual interest rate of 5% and monthly compound interest for 10 years, including the price of weapons.
The Chinese government, which had lost 470 tons of gold after making a mistake in order to boost the morale of the people, deliberately did not announce the results of the second battle.
But Korea is crazy because they announced the extent of their damage.
What’s crazy is that the Chinese military has never even seen the F-35.
All of the fighters shot down in the second battle were either KF-16s or older generation aircraft.
And then, as if waiting, a secret hotline came from Ha Soo-young.
-90 billion won each, 10 billion won for weapons. There are 80 in total, so let’s just give them 10 trillion won and finish it off. 94 tons of gold would be enough.
-What are you talking about? According to my report, the F-35 wasn’t even visible.
-Oh, the people are feeling good, so are you going to pour cold water on that?
To the commentator’s ears, it sounded like a threat: ‘Oh, so you’re not going to disinfect it?’
-Isn’t the atmosphere in China very good right now? The J-20 is performing better than expected, and the Chinese Air Force is making a name for itself around the world. I’m not just getting the cost of the fighter, but I’m also getting additional marketing costs.
The commentator was momentarily shocked, but then came to his senses after remembering that ‘all the fighters shot down were old fighters that were a headache even for the Korean military.’
-Comment, I think we are in a very beneficial deal for each other right now.
“Deal? You call this a deal?”
-War is originally a deal between kings, isn’t it?
The war is a war of kings… … .
Those words struck the commentator with a strangely sweet feeling.
-After all, didn’t the president decide to go to war for France?
-We both have to do our best and take what we need from this war.
“How much do you trust China?”
-As much as China trusts me.
The answer is that I don’t believe it at all.
The commentator burst into hearty laughter without a sound.
I was satisfied with the current feeling of strange trust because I was dealing with an unbelievable enemy. I was satisfied.
“Okay. Prepare 94 tons of gold.”
-The Yangtze River will still be clean.
After the deal that was not supposed to be known, a third engagement took place.
The commentator had preemptively announced the results of the engagement to avoid being ripped off this time, but Korea reversed the decision.
-Common sense tells us that there is no reason for the losing side to inflate the damage. That’s why it’s 37, not 19.
Ha Soo-young contacted him again, and Joo-soo felt like he was going crazy, but he held back and agreed to the deal.
* * *
The Korean-French War was centered on Paris.
It was a flow that no one expected.
The Korean and Chinese armies fought regularly as if they had made a pact, and each time the Korean army lost a large amount of expensive equipment.
“Something is strange. Based on what has been announced so far, it seems like the South Korean military has lost more F-35s than it has acquired.”
“The process of introducing fighter jets itself must have been confidential. There are many cases where they are kept secret to hide military power.”
“Still, something feels strange.”
France has already been relegated to a rear-supporting role, focusing on supplying supplies to China.
Even that is a feat, considering that solar winds have caused damage to a lot of national infrastructure.
And finally, the Chinese army arrived in France through the borders opened by European countries.
During the thousands of kilometers of travel, the Chinese army was inspired by the achievements of the air force, but also felt strong jealousy and inferiority.
“It is time to avenge the humiliation of the Ukrainian battlefields.”
China sent some troops to Ukraine and suffered the humiliation of having the troops annihilated by a single railgun tactical aircraft.
“This time it will be different.”
* * *
The above and below water scenes of the Korea-France War were 180 degrees different.
When a battle broke out, Ha Su-yeong demanded compensation for combat losses without fail.
The Chinese government, which was vulnerable to the radioactive contamination of the Yangtze River, could not refuse this secret deal.
Fight, pay, fight again, pay again.
Above the water, the name of China was clearly shining brightly.
But it was different under the water.
Clearly, they were at war with each other, but a strange situation was unfolding in which the winner was compensating the loser for combat losses in real time.
