Chapter 1201 - The Island Owner
The battle on Island One was intense and brief. However, in this contest between China and Vietnam, it played a crucial role!
The Vietnamese attempted to attack and take back Island # 1 through the tunnel. As the Vietnamese special forces were annihilated by Ji Feng and his men, even the landing craft was captured. It could be said that this was the end of the curtain.
The Vietnamese would never have dreamed that this perfect ambush would end in such a way.
However, what they didn't expect was that the failure of this ambush meant that Vietnam had no choice but to admit defeat in this game.
Ji Feng and the others guessed correctly. Viet Nam indeed wanted to take the opportunity to take back Island # 1. In order to gain the upper hand in the negotiations with China, at the very least, it would be able to save the Northern Army.
But in the end, not only were the forces that ambushed Island # 1 completely annihilated, but the battle between the armies that fought at the border of China and the northern army of Vietnam was also completely wiped out. Under the powerful a.s.sault of the Chinese military, they were finally forced to surrender!
The impact of this result was shocking!
Since the start of the war, the eyes of the entire world had been focused on this place. Vietnam had a very strong military force, especially the navy, and not only did the j.a.panese navy sail across the sea, even the United States fleet was dispatched. This put a lot of pressure on the Chinese navy, otherwise, even if the Chinese navy didn't attack with its full power, they wouldn't have let so many missiles land on island 1.
The Vietnamese navy itself is quite strong.
Under these circ.u.mstances, everyone would think that there would be a fierce battle between Vietnam and China, or even a long-lasting tug of war.
This was what j.a.pan and the Western countries wanted to see the most, because this way, not only would China be dragged into the mire of war, but it would also severely drain China's power, forcing the focus of China's work to shift from economic construction to war with Vietnam.
Therefore, whether it is j.a.pan or the United States of America, all of them are trying to help Viet Nam as much as possible.
However —
No one would have thought that this war would end so quickly!
No one would have expected that the Chinese Army would be so strong. Although the outside world had already fully estimated the Chinese Army's combat strength at the beginning of the battle, everyone was now suddenly surprised. They thought that they had already overestimated the Chinese Army's combat strength, but they still underestimated it!
The fighting strength of the Chinese Army was too strong!
When the news of the end of the battle spread out, the entire international community was shocked!
Including j.a.pan and the United States!
In just three days, the Chinese army had completed the siege of Vietnam's northern army, and they were forced to surrender after forcefully killing off the northern army!
The battle strength displayed by the Chinese Army in this battle was truly shocking to countless people.
Even the details of the battle were of great interest to all countries, including the United States.
How was this possible!
With so many troops, even if they were a motley crowd and so many people had advanced weapons, it would not be easy to take them down!
Unless, it's a Chinese aircraft cannon missile together, that's a possibility.
However, according to the accurate information and the feedback from the observers, the Chinese Army didn't use any missiles at all. On the other hand, there were aircraft, and they had a short air battle with Viet Nam.
But is that the main reason for the army's failure in northern Vietnam?
Countless military observers and experts were a.n.a.lyzing the reason why China won so quickly, but for many countries, the result was that China won.
This was not good news!
At the same time, Island # 1 was still occupied by the Chinese - even though China still insisted that Island # 1 was taken back by the citizens, no one believed it.
Of course, Viet Nam was very dissatisfied with the word 'retract'. However, a war of words could not solve any problems. No matter what one said, it could not cover up the fact that Vietnam had failed!
Regardless of whether Vietnam was willing to admit it or not, they could not ignore the fact that they had lost!
Right now, it was no longer a matter of whether or not to take back Island # 1, but how to rescue the captured northern army from Hua Xia.
If the war couldn't continue, then there was only one way left — — talk!
When Ji Feng got on the troop carrier and returned from Island # 1, he also heard about the truce between the two sides. Although Vietnam still refused to back down, it was an indisputable fact that they didn't continue to attack.
It wasn't that they didn't want to attack, but that there was no other way!
The only secret tunnel leading to Island # 1 was sealed. The special forces attacking Island # 1 only sent back the news of being ambushed, and then no word came back. It was obvious.
Since he couldn't attack, he could only sit down and negotiate.
No matter how reluctant he was, he could only hold his nose and accept it. Unless, Vietnam was already prepared to have a big battle with China. However, it was obvious that Viet Nam wasn't ready for such an outcome, so they could only continue their conversation.
Half of the team still came back with Ji Feng.
Zhang Lei didn't return. This fellow had been provoked by the battle. He was fully aware of his own shortcomings in only fighting, so he insisted on staying and continuing to study.
Ji Feng didn't force him. Plus, if he stayed, he could represent the Tengfei Corporation. This way, the country's excuse would be more reasonable. After all, the country's reputation as the # 1 Island was taken back by the commoners.
Zhao Yongzhan and Tan Yong also did not return. Although the situation was now clear, the final result could not be determined after a day of negotiations. The defense of Island # 1 had to be careful for a day.
And Ji Feng being redeployed was an order from the higher ups of the military. Rumor has it that it was even the head commander who personally gave the order to Liberation.
Therefore, Ji Feng was taken to the front of a seaplane by a troop carrier. He was picked up by someone to fly to a base in the Southern Sea Region. Then, he was taken to Jiang Prefecture by another plane.
When he arrived at Jiang Prefecture, Ji Feng found out that the military actually wanted him to continue working with experts from the military to research the transfer of laser cannons to other equipment. For example, the laser cannon and the laser gun were loaded onto the plane, the warship, and so on.
This was definitely a complicated project. For Ji Feng, he was not proficient in modern weapon technology, so after some consideration, he decided to share the laser gun and laser cannon technology with the military.
However, his condition was that at least one thousand regular warriors would retire from the field, and if they could listen to his orders, they would be stationed on island one for a long time!
At the same time, the country was going to a.s.sist him in two airports on Island # 1, one for military and one for civilian!
In addition, the facilities, equipment, and other things that were needed on Island # 1 needed the help of the country!
The military did not hesitate to agree to his request, because using these things to exchange for the laser gun and laser cannon technology was definitely a national gain!
The military agreed straightforwardly, while Ji Feng was even more straightforward. On the day of the agreement, he pa.s.sed the detailed information about the laser gun and laser cannon to the military, the weapons were already available, how to transfer them to other equipment was not something he needed to worry about, he didn't want to worry about that, the military had many experts anyway.
Even Ji Feng was not envious of these equipment. As long as Island # 1 obtained them, he would not be interested in these equipment!
In the following days, Ji Feng spent most of his time in his study.
If he could take down Island # 1, then he would have the foundation to carry out his plan. Now, he could bring out many techniques that he couldn't bring out previously.
Therefore, he needed to properly plan out a few things while at the same time bringing out some of his techniques.
Other than that, Ji Feng spent the rest of his time discussing about moving to Island # 1 with Xiao Yu Xuan and Tong Lei.
Especially Tengfei Group. Ji Feng planned to move their headquarters to Island # 1. Jiang Prefecture was a branch directly under their control, but the research lab had to be moved!
Thus, during this period of time, Xiao Yuxuan didn't stay idle either. She was busy with organizing the Soaring Flying Group and doing various aspects of the transfer and so on.
After that, Ji Feng took the time to pay a visit to Rongpeng and explain his plan to him. At the same time, he also told him not to worry that everything in the country would be as it was before, without any problems.
After doing all this, Ji Feng began his most important task — — managing the island.
Ji Feng's gaze locked onto the orphanage. Although with the development of science and technology, the entire Earth had become a global village, but Island # 1 was at the heart of the struggle. It was unlikely that many people would be willing to bring their families over, no matter how generous the conditions were.
However, the orphanages that w.a.n.g Xin and w.a.n.g Hu came from were different. Those orphans were fatherless and motherless people. Their biggest wish was to be able to eat and read.
This was also possible on Island One.
Ji Feng even believed that the future of Island # 1 lay in the hands of these children.
Of course, this was all preparation work, and he had to wait for everything to settle down.
A month later, the negotiations between China and Viet Nam finally came to a conclusion. Viet Nam would compensate China for their losses. The two sides would sign a friendly agreement and China would release the captured northern army.
In short, Vietnam had offered a large sum of money and other compensation to redeem the captive northern army, but there was no mention of either side of Island One, as if the place had been forgotten.
However, everyone knew that both sides were holding back. If there was a chance, or the time was ripe, Vietnam would take back Island # 1, and China would hold onto Island # 1, the bridgehead of the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean.
There was no point in arguing now. Island # 1 was already controlled by China, and Vietnam would not embarra.s.s themselves.
So far, China had completely achieved its strategic goal of 'fighting a small war' and taking down Island # 1. And Ji Feng had also become one of the beneficiaries. Next, he would be the master of Island # 1!
