251, holding the winning ticket

The head of the Air Force was already holding a winning hand, just waiting for the others' reactions when they saw the vector engine later.

Of course, he wasn't about to reveal his secret, or Lin Mo's secret early; otherwise, what fun would there be?

Thinking this, the expression on his face gave nothing away as he simply smiled and said, "I don't have any secret weapons or dependents. In dogfighting, haven't you, the Navy, always had the upper hand?"

"I've also come to realize, it would be embarrassing to send out the J-20 fighter jets. It's better to go with the J-10; that way, if we lose, we can find some excuses."

"Don't you agree?"

If the head of the Air Force had been boastful now, perhaps the others would have believed him.

But it was precisely because of his demeanor that everyone was a bit unsure whether he was telling the truth or bluffing.
