Galaxy Domination Guide-Chapter 677 - 663 Casual
Bai Zhongqi already had an office in Li'an Prefecture, which served as the location for the National Salvation Revival Association he had organized for the Eastern Land, as well as the command center for the unmanned technological weaponry that he directed with the Supreme Command.
"It's a pity that in this world, only subcritical nuclear reactions exist. People can obtain energy through the chain reactions of fission, but cannot make atomic bombs. Otherwise, just tossing a few atomic bombs with megatonnage would level Qikun and solve all problems at once." As the Chancellor, infamous for countless killings, Bai Zhongqi really didn't have much psychological burden when it came to such genocidal acts anymore.
He now controlled a large number of unmanned weapons produced by the Homeland Stone industrial base. The technological level of these unmanned weapons was not high, except for AI and automation control, they basically did not contain too much technology. Yet, being able to command them with the Supreme Command was the equivalent of granting the Chancellor formidable military strength.
However, due to the low technological level of this equipment, it still required maintenance logistics, which inevitably required manpower. Bai Zhongqi was now focused on training the logistic maintenance personnel of the Qing State military, but the process was slow. Therefore, whenever a piece of equipment had issues, it could only be left aside.
Bai Zhongqi would not send it back to Homeland Stone for repairs, because doing so would amount to consuming Star Energy twice, whereas bringing out a newly made equipment would only consume once.
As for Qikun's Army Air Corps using large squadron formations of World War II-style saturation bombings, Bai Zhongqi could only scoff at it. The Qikun people thought such bombings were especially imposing, while the Qing State military basically had no credible anti-aircraft capabilities, so they saw no issue with this approach.

But times have changed. Bai Zhongqi now had more than forty-two regiments of long-range anti-aircraft missile units (HQ-9) deployed in Qing State. The density of this arrangement was simply terrifying.
"Air defense radar has detected the enemy, engage interception!"
The Qikun Army Air Corps' Type 97 heavy bombers were large subsonic bombers with a high payload capacity, basically similar to but slightly smaller than the B-52 with a payload of more than ten tons. Escorting them were the Falcon-type fighters, also known as Type 1 fighters, the most numerous aircraft in the Army Air Corps at that time, a twin-engine heavy air superiority craft with some Ikarus lineage.
Due to the era's limitations, Qikun's aircraft were inevitably not stealthy, so on Bai Zhongqi's radar, all the small dots became clearly visible as they entered a range of 400 kilometers.
Missiles, in a normal old-world Earth nation, were expensive, but to Bai Zhongqi, they were of little value. Thus, after locking onto a large number of enemy aircraft, Bai Zhongqi controlled a multitude of anti-aircraft missile launchers and in one breath emptied the 8 missiles from his launch rack (different from the original launch vehicle).
The radar warning receivers aboard the Qikun aircraft blared incessantly, an unprecedented situation for the Qikun people, some pilots even became flustered, firing off decoy flares that were of no use, in vain attempts to evade.
A swarm of anti-aircraft missiles plunged into the formation, like spraying insecticide at a swarm of mosquitoes. Shrapnel warheads swept through, destroying the flight capabilities of many aircraft. The Type 97 heavy bombers were somewhat sturdier, so they could still fly despite being damaged, but the Falcons were not so lucky, having their wings clipped and plunging straight down.
Of course, anti-aircraft missiles weren't Bai Zhongqi's only form of air defense. After suddenly encountering an attack from anti-aircraft missiles, the Qikun Army Air Corps was then struck by a wave of air-to-air missiles.
"What's going on? Where are these air-to-air missiles coming from? Our radars aren't picking up any fighters!"
With a generational advantage, the fifth-generation stealth fighter J-20, under Bai Zhongqi's command, fired medium-range missiles at these Qikun aircraft from different directions, while the radars on the Qikun fighters had no capacity to detect the J-20 beyond 50 kilometers.
"Stay outside the enemy's detection blind zone and continue to fire!"
Stealth fighters didn't want to engage in close combat with ordinary third and fourth-generation fighters, preferring to settle the battle beyond visual range if possible.
This total of more than two hundred Qikun military aircraft sent in one wave were completely wiped out by the Qing State military's air defense forces in a mere twenty minutes.
Saito Hidetsugu, standing at the Commander's headquarters outside the border, was trembling all over. The terrified cries of the pilots in their final moments had him shaken to the core.
"It's an ambush, an ambush! We've encountered massive anti-aircraft fire!"
"Ahhh, Jade 02 has been shot down."
"How could this happen, we're still more than forty kilometers from the coast."
"So many missiles!"
...
From start to finish, not a single Qikun military aircraft ever saw a missile launch platform, neither in the air nor on the ground. They were simply swept from the sky, one by one, by long-range missiles.
If Navy's Hengtian Jinyi had been there, he probably couldn't have laughed either, although there was significant rivalry between the branches of the military, after all they were Qikun people, sharing the same goals and vision, which was to occupy the Eastern Land, thereby granting Qikun vast hinterland and population resources, and the capital to compete for world domination.
But the uncanny possession of so many advanced missiles and inconceivable combat capabilities by the Qing State's forces left all Qikun military personnel deeply worried.
Meanwhile, at the Zhang Family mansion, Zhang Shixiong received a call from Bai Zhongqi, who informed him that the Qikun bomber fleet had been completely wiped out, and he still couldn't believe it a hundred percent.
"Mr. Bai, it's not that I doubt you, but after all it's one-fifth of the power of Qikun's Army Air Corps; even strong nations like Okes and Ige, when facing such force, would have to weigh their options."
Bai Zhongqi couldn't be bothered to explain to this man and simply hung up the phone.
Listening to the beeping sound on the phone, Zhang Shixiong could only reluctantly put the phone down.
"Could it really have been all resolved at once?"
Before long, the J-20 fighter still on reconnaissance mission sent back footage of the Qikun military aircraft wreckage floating on the sea, completely confirming Bai Zhongqi's statement. Zhang Shixiong instantly went from extreme anxiety and panic to brimming with confidence.
This warlord, who had transformed into a model of resistance, immediately gathered his generals and began to plan the next military operation. Within a few days, Bai Zhongqi had replaced the equipment of his hundred thousand troops from Qing State with brand-new gear. Although most of the soldiers were still not familiar with the new equipment, Zhang Shixiong believed that with Bai Zhongqi's help, he could definitely achieve success.
As long as they could secure one victory after another, then the future Bai Zhongqi had mentioned, about becoming the President or even the Emperor of the Eastern Land, was also an expectation to look forward to.
And the first assassination attempt on Bai Zhongqi was waiting to happen at this very moment.
