Developing Cold Fusion, With a Carrier Strike Group as My Escort

"Dragon Nationer, can your entrenching tool cut through an M1A2 main battle tank?"

At a defense expo, Zhang Yan, who is demonstrating an entrenching tool, is challenged by a colleague from the Ugly Nation.

Zhang Yan then takes his self-designed entrenching tool and cuts straight through the M1A2's depleted uranium armor.

The entire defense expo takes a strange turn.

Expert A: "Good heavens! His entrenching tool can turn uranium-238 in depleted uranium armor into plutonium-239, triggering controlled nuclear fusion?"

Expert B: "Good Lord! Beneath that misleading entrenching-tool design, it's actually a fast-neutron reactor?"

Expert C: "My goodness! It's so tiny, the nuclear reaction is practically at room temperature, and the radiation is negligible. It's confirmed: this must be a controlled cold-fusion device!"

As the outside world looks on in confusion, a carrier battle group suddenly appears at sea. Zhang Yan stands on the carrier's deck, dumbfounded. "This is ridiculous. A carrier battle group is escorting me home!"
