The US military base chief remained unfazed by Watanabe Goro\u2019s questioning.<\/p>\n
He said with a serious expression, \u201cBased on the situation just now, we should indeed adhere to the Antarctic Treaty and not send a single soldier to Antarctica. But now, the situation has changed.\u201d<\/p>\n
At this moment, Goro Watanabe felt a bit doubtful about life.<\/p>\n
He rubbed his eyes, repeatedly confirming that the man in front of him was the base commander who had just told him that he would never send a single soldier to Antarctica.<\/p>\n
How come in the blink of an eye, this bastard has organized hundreds of Navy SEALs to prepare to support Antarctica?<\/p>\n
He couldn\u2019t help but ask, \u201cWhat has changed? Has our leader requested permission from your leader to send troops?\u201d<\/p>\n
The U.S. military base chief gave him a disdainful look and said, \u201cAs far as I know, your president doesn\u2019t have that much influence.\u201d<\/p>\n
After saying that, he picked up the walkie-talkie and shouted sternly, \u201cWhy hasn\u2019t M142 arrived yet? Hurry up, we\u2019re going to be late!\u201d<\/p>\n
Watanabe Goro was speechless.<\/p>\n
After all, he is from the Ministry of Defense, and about half of the weapons used by the Self-Defense Forces are made in the United States, with many others being jointly developed by the US and Japan.<\/p>\n
Therefore, the moment he heard \u201cM142,\u201d he knew that the other party must be referring to the American M142 tracked self-propelled rocket launcher.<\/p>\n
This thing is highly mobile and has stronger firepower. The new model can launch guided rockets with a range of 300 kilometers.<\/p>\n
Moreover, it features 6\u00d76 all-wheel drive and powerful performance, designed for all terrains. Even if you were to drop it onto the Antarctic ice sheet, it would definitely be able to run smoothly.<\/p>\n
The M142 abandoned the tracked design, weighs just over five tons, and can be easily carried by a single transport aircraft in three stages.<\/p>\n
Watanabe Goro thought to himself, \u201cDamn, are these Americans out of their minds? Either they don\u2019t send a single soldier, a single bullet, or even allow pilots to carry sidearms, or they just bring out self-propelled rocket launchers and put them in Antarctica to shoot down the snowmobiles of scientific expedition teams from all over the world. It\u2019s like beating up grandsons! It\u2019s easier than a tank shooting down a truck. After all, these things have a much longer range than tanks, and once they are equipped with guided munitions, they can hit any target within 300 kilometers.\u201d<\/p>\n
The next second, Goro Watanabe suddenly realized a very serious problem: Could these SEALs and M142 self-propelled rocket launchers be prepared to attack our scientific expedition team?<\/p>\n
Japan originally hoped that the United States would send troops, not because it wanted to kill these traitorous scientific expedition members, but because it wanted to take them under control as quickly as possible and capture them alive.<\/p>\n
Sending soldiers to capture them alive is perfectly reasonable.<\/p>\n
However, sending out self-propelled rocket launchers has absolutely nothing to do with capturing them alive.<\/p>\n
Watanabe Goro broke out in a cold sweat and quickly said, \u201cCommander, our\u2026 our plan is to prioritize persuasion to surrender. Even if persuasion fails, we should prioritize capture rather than attack. With such heavy firepower, if a misfire occurs, the consequences will be dire\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
The U.S. military base chief said coldly, \u201cYou have no right to question or interfere with the military operations of the United States military.\u201d<\/p>\n
Goro Watanabe choked up: \u201cOur research team members are only suspected of treason, we can\u2019t just kill them!\u201d<\/p>\n
The U.S. military base chief said, \u201cOur previous operation was to transport you to Antarctica. Now our operation is to transport our soldiers and weapons to Antarctica, and we\u2019ll drop you off on the way. So, if you still want to ride this plane, you\u2019d better shut up, or you can just get off!\u201d<\/p>\n
Watanabe Goro immediately became much more obedient.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
