Chapter 174

The first thing that came to mind at those words was the Cheonghae Unit.

2009. It was created for the international maritime safety of the Combined Naval Command.

But now it’s 2008.

Also, the timeline seems to be entangled, but the establishment of the Cheonghae Unit seems to follow its history.

“Was it possible to establish a separate unit?”

“Yes, of course.”

“Maybe the name of the unit is…….”

“It was named after Cheonghaejin, which was established by Ambassador Jang Bo-go of Unified Silla for maritime trade.”

A laugh came out of nowhere.

The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff tilts his head as if puzzled.

He shook off the thoughts he had heard for a moment and then asked again.

“When did you leave?”

“It’s been about a week. The president told us to refrain from reporting to the media for the time being, so it will only be announced tomorrow.”

Perhaps it was because of the burden of dispatching troops to Iraq.

No one would be so happy to hear that even a naval destroyer would be dispatched to a faraway land in the midst of a large-scale dispatch of troops already in progress.

In a nutshell, I’m going to do my job first and do a follow-up, but if that’s the case, it’s probably the same as not being able to hear good things.

“Ah! The reason I am telling you this is to inform you that the Warrior Platform has been provided to the UDT troops who were on board the dispatched destroyer.”

While holding a glass of water to cool off, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff continued.

I hadn’t heard of the military ordering an additional warrior platform from within the company.

Looking at him with a puzzled mind, he says with a shy smile.

“We diverted some of the payments to Iraqi troops. Because time was so tight, we couldn’t afford to place additional orders.”

“Then we will have to send the tribe back to Iraq.”

“Yes, that’s why I’m going to ask Chairman Jin a favor now. Because there should be no damage to the troops dispatched to Iraq due to lack of quantity.”

“I know what you mean.”

I nodded willingly and took another glass of water.

What immediately came to mind was an exoskeleton suit.

I was concerned that he would not have paid UDT for something that was not suitable for naval operations.

“Perhaps······.”

Still, I asked him right away.

Fortunately, it was good until the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff shook his head, as if that wasn’t the case, but the words that followed made me more embarrassed.

“According to Dr. Kim Hee-won of the Jaewoo Research Institute, the power-driven exoskeleton suit has not yet been tested for operational effectiveness at sea. That is why UDT has been given a non-motorized exoskeleton.”

“What are you paying for?”

“The unpowered exoskeleton. They say that there is no problem in naval operations because it is not operated by electricity, is it?”

“·················ogue.”

[At 10 am today, China held the expected military parade.]

A few days later, China held the expected military parade.

Perhaps taking into account the nature of the protest, it was a parade of such a large scale that it could be said that it was the largest in history.

‘To see the Chinese military parade on TV at this time.’

Suddenly, I thought that it was a little strange.

It was customary that China’s military parade had only been reported as fragmentary news.

However, perhaps because of the situation, the Chinese government actively allowed foreign journalists to film, unlike before, and for that reason, we are sitting in the office and watching for a long time.

“Nuclear missiles are appearing without fail.

General Manager Kim Young-ki, who was watching alongside him, clicked his tongue when he saw the first ICBM caught on the screen.

Well, among the means of force that China can be proud of, it must have been the best.

He responded with a smile and then turned his gaze again, and suddenly found a familiar object on the screen.

“Isn’t that an exoskeleton?”

I pointed my finger at the screen and said to Kim Young-gi.

Director Kim, who unintentionally looked at the TV at those words, was startled and approached the TV, and soon turned to me again and his mouth clenched.

“It’s an exoskeleton. wait! But why is Polar Bear over there?”

With that said, I also approached the TV.

What caught my eye was the combat vehicles that were following the troops equipped with exoskeletons.

It looked very similar to Polar Bear, as Director Kim said.

“Isn’t that a technology leak?”

Manager Kim Young-gi, who was bewildered, asked me with a trembling voice.

It’s a situation I’m still not quite sure about.

All of a sudden, the relaxation disappears, and the tension penetrates the heart.

Tee!

“Please tell Dr. Kim Hee-won of the research institute to come into the headquarters immediately.”

I finally called Hee-won before the military parade was over.

He must have been aware of the Awakened situation, and after entering the headquarters, he had all kinds of materials in his hands.

“Isn’t that something that caused a security problem?”

“What nonsense…….”

Hee-won was furious at my attitude.

However, when he did not take his sharp eyes off him, he continued the explanation by inserting a memory containing data into the laptop.

“I assure you, there is no technology leak. Are you saying that leaks into our system are justified?”

“·················ogue.”

In fact, I also thought it was impossible.

All systems in the lab protected by quantum algorithms.

In addition, while most of the key researchers are not only monitored by the National Intelligence Service, but also by Jaewoo Security, what is technology leakage?

In addition, the material rewards that researchers receive are so close to the eyes of other companies.

No matter how much you think about it, there is no reason to risk it yourself.

“Then you’re saying that it’s just a copy of the exterior, so why do you dare copy our design?”

“Well, China is a fake heaven anyway, so weapons are different. Maybe he was thinking that if we copied our design, it would work in the arms export market.”

“What level of performance?”

“There is no level. Just looking at this part makes me laugh.”

What Heewon pointed out was the movement of the soldiers equipped with exoskeletons.

Why didn’t you know in the first place?

A closer look reveals the awkwardness of the movement.

“As you can see, this awkward movement is evidence of poor signal processing. In this state, instead of increasing the power, it will only lead to a decrease in combat power. The same goes for that powerless type. Since there is no proper printing technology, it seems that they dealt with some strange material, but you can’t guarantee durability until then.”

“Hmm······.”

“And the same goes for combat vehicles. Look at this joint here. This is also proof that there is no bulletproof material deposition technology, but I am extremely doubtful that it can actually show proper protection.”

Suddenly, a smirk erupted.

Before returning, I remember their history of copying all kinds of American weapons.

Nevertheless, the reason I am not comfortable is that they have narrowed the limits of technology by continuously stealing American technology.

Now the thought that it’s going to be tried against us makes me annoyed.

“We will have to pay more attention to security in the future. No, don’t do it, take this opportunity to check all of the researchers.”

“To what extent?”

“Account tracking of not only you but also people around you.”

“Do I have to do that? If it became known that the account was closed, it could be controversial?”

“I know. So I’m going to ask the NIS. Fortunately, in the case of the National Intelligence Service, it can make excuses for alleged industrial technology leaks.”

“·················ogue.”

******

It has been over a month since the incident of the Chinese military parade.

Heewon posted a report on the researchers who conducted the investigation.

Most of the time, there are no issues at all.

The only thing that bothered me was Kim Do-hyeon, a researcher who was recently recruited to the Missile Development Center, and the fact that he was recently dating a woman from China was a foreign student.

“If you’re a new researcher, it doesn’t seem to matter because you’re in a position with little access right, but it really bothers me that my girlfriend is Chinese.”

Knowing the history, of course, I had no choice but to be suspicious.

It must have been one or two times that China achieved its purpose through the beauty world.

One of the most notable incidents was the case of Christine Pang, who at one time turned American politics upside down because of her alone.

‘Is there only one incident? The US defense industry has not had one or two accidents caused by Chinese beauty.’

With that in mind, my concerns are not unreasonable.

“Can you ask the NIS to conduct some investigation on this woman? Or, please gather as much information as possible through the director of the strategy room.”

“When it comes to Chinese figures, it would be better to use the National Intelligence Service rather than the Strategy Office. Well, there is no way that the NIS would refuse to cooperate, as it could turn into an industrial espionage problem. Anyway, let’s find out as soon as possible.”

General Manager Kim Young-gi stood up from his seat as soon as he was afraid to speak.

“Huh!”

For some reason, I wondered if I could hear the door opening soon, and then suddenly a whistle came from his mouth.



“·················ogue.”

In front of the door I looked at, Manager Kim and Natasha were facing each other.

No, to be precise, the movement lines are twisted and they don’t know what to do with each other.

In the end, Director Kim takes a step back and yields her way to her with her blushing face.

“long time no see.”

“Yes, it’s been a while.”

Natasha’s Korean was quite fluent.

Even I am surprised.

Director Kim Young-gi, who had a blank expression on her face for a moment, asks her again.

“But, do you have any business for the president?”

Perhaps it was a question that came out of vigilance.

There’s no reason for her to come to my room at this hour.

Moreover, even though she is in charge of my bodyguard, she is clearly a Russian informant.

From the position of Chief Kim, who served as the military supreme commander, she must be wary of course.

“Yeah. In case you don’t know, the manager will also listen.”

Natasha nodded calmly and she walked over to me.

Director Kim Young-gi, who followed her again, took a seat on her sofa, and soon she pulled out some pictures of her from her arms and pushed them in front of me.

[For smooth communication, we will deliver in English from now on.][If you are comfortable with that side, then what…….]

She glared at her, reluctantly replying.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

For a moment, she took a deep breath and then spit it out again.

[Yesterday, a Russian merchant ship was hijacked by pirates off the coast of Somalia.][··········.]

Director Kim Young-gi and I looked at each other at the same time.

I feel like I’m thinking the same thing just by looking at your eyes.

What the hell does that have to do with us?

Then Natasha’s words continued.

[And this morning, a Korean merchant ship was hijacked.][··········.]

After that, Director Kim and I looked at each other again.

[Our merchant ships were also kidnapped?]

After spitting out the same words at the same time, we each got up in a different direction, and at that moment Natasha’s words continued.

[Yes, so now Russia has dispatched a destroyer to the accident area. And the destroyers dispatched by the South Korean Navy are also approaching it. The problem is that the hijacked Korean merchant ship is the Samyoungho. Jaewoo Thales came with loads of various special materials imported.][God damn it! I’ll do some fact-checking with the military first.]

After hearing the story, Manager Kim quickly took out his cell phone and left the room.

My phone vibrates momentarily.

The sender was Kim Hae-woong, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

“Yes, Chairman. Anyway, I just heard the news.”

– Already? If you are planning to come to the Situation Room, we will notify you in advance.

“I’m going. Jaewoo’s staff are also on board Samyoungho.”

I hung up the phone and immediately got up.

As soon as the car was about to pick up the suit, I suddenly wondered what Russia was going to do.

[What did you decide to do in Russia?][Russia will not negotiate with pirates.][··········.]

To some extent, the answer was predictable.

Even before the return, Russia actually took strict punishment against Somali pirates rather than negotiating them.

It won’t be any different now.

[So, when will the rescue operation start?][Maybe tomorrow morning, but I don’t know the details.]

I left her answer behind and left her room.

Russia and our merchant ships are being hijacked at the same time. An event that never happened in history.

Now, the countermeasures of the two countries will soon be known to the world, and it is true that I am a little worried.

‘If Russia takes a hardline policy and succeeds, we, too, will not be able to insist on negotiating…’
