As a direct descendant of the founding father of the United States, John Washington is not mysterious or outstanding, but it is undeniable that he is a celebrity and he is rich because he is the son of a banker. The life circle of Washington's direct descendants is naturally With good connections and prosperous careers, ordinary people with innate conveniences can easily achieve success.
But getting rich does not mean that you are noble, especially outside. Not to mention New York, the United States, and even Europe. John Washington is a well-known playboy, and he is a notorious playboy who causes trouble from time to time. He was arrested by the police in Europe However, because he got into a jealous fight in a nightclub and ended up needing to be extradited by the US government and was detained by federal authorities, it was ridiculous, but this is his style of life. People who know him and know him all understand his background and know that His ancestors were so great, but he was not accused of being unworthy of their ancestors. This is also influenced by mainstream Western concepts.
If George Washington's descendants will enjoy eternal wealth because of his glorious deeds, that is unacceptable to the American people, because such things only existed in the feudal era in the past. George Washington was a great man, and John Washington was an unruly man. Young Master, no one would forcefully confuse the two because of their blood relationship.
Even if John Washington was despised by the world for his heinous crimes, I am afraid no one would slander the other party¡¯s ancestor, the great George Washington.
It doesn¡¯t matter whether Michael¡¯s joke is true or not, whether John is acting like a real person when he is spending time and drinking while not doing his job, or whether he is just a hypocritical human skin. The key thing is that as time travels and the years change, he still shoulders the legacy left by his ancestors. Mission, defend the interests of the United States!
Although he cannot become a federal general marshal and command thousands of troops like his ancestors. It is impossible for him to aspire to become the supreme leader of the free world, but at least he doesn't feel shabby now.
Among the eight people sitting in the two rows in front of him, in addition to Michael's status in the American plutocratic power, there are also generals from the top military levels, professors from the highest universities, think tanks from the white-house staff team, and partisans. The elite in power. Ranking leaders in both houses, etc.
It is impossible for the huge force formed by the people gathered around him to dominate the United States, but it is not a fantasy to shake up the trend and development of the United States from different directions and entry points.
John looked at Michael, his expression showing no trace of frivolity at this moment, and asked seriously: "Michael, you have been in contact with the Minoan Alliance, and we want to hear your objective risk assessment."
The others stared at Michael with keen eyes. His face was as heavy as water, and his voice was calm but powerful: "The Minoan Alliance came into being more than two years ago. First of all, according to my guess, their strength comes from technology. And what kind of technological strength do they have? This will bring up a person we have discussed before, Tang Xin. Although he is dead, but. Let's look back at the Hongxin Group he created with his own hands. I believe. At least the Minoan Alliance, at least It has the same technological strength as Horizon Group.¡±
Everyone¡¯s hearts were shocked, and John¡¯s face was as stern as ice. In a meeting many years ago, they had discussed the dangers of Horizon Group.
The background at that time was that the S2 virus was sweeping the world. Tang Xin threatened the Secretary of State of the United States at the negotiation table. People present speculated that Horizon Group wrote, directed and acted on its own to stage a global crisis and profit from it. Originally, it had happened at that time Discussions about whether to go to war with the Horizon Group mobilized all their energy to eliminate such a power group that directly threatened the interests of the United States. Fortunately, the Horizon Group stopped it, and they could not figure out the real strength of the Horizon Group, so they finally let it go.
But as a key target of focus, Horizon Group has made achievements in seismometers, anti-gravity, space programs, leading the revolution in the electronics industry over the years, in addition to its dominance in the medical field. Every major move made by the Horizon Group cannot be underestimated. Even more fearful.
Fortunately, the man who transformed decay into magic and omnipotence is dead!
This is what Michael confirmed.
After Tang Xin¡¯s death, the Horizon Group did not continue its earth-shattering actions. It seems that the magic of the Horizon Group will end here, and it will become one of the plutocrats pursuing fame and wealth in the future.
But this world is where you sing and I appear. Horizon Group has just stopped its magical performance, and the Minos Alliance has appeared on the stage.
Judging from the current situation that the Minoan Alliance can make cities "fly", the technological strength they possess cannot be described as inferior to Horizon Group. It is simply transcendent and formidable!
"The first time, the Minoan Alliance's action was to use mercenaries to rob goods shared by China and Eros. They were rich but had no fists. The second time, the Minoan Alliance launched a war againstIn retaliation, Wolf and others dispatched a submarine to blow up Tang Xin's island. So far, the U.S. intelligence system has not found the exact location of their submarine. Its anti-tracking and exploration capabilities are absolutely beyond imagination. The third time, not long ago, five American F-35s launched an attack on the Sky City, but the electronic system was destroyed. According to the driver's recall of the emp impact range at that time, the Minoan Alliance had already deployed ground weapons. Put into use in the air range, gentlemen, time and time again, the Minoan Alliance is in a rising period, and the extent to which its final strength will reach is unknown. "
When evaluating opponents, hard power is the basis. As for strategies, strategies, etc., these cannot be quantified.
John and the other listeners looked pessimistic. After a moment of silence in the room, John raised his head and asked Michael, "What's your final opinion?"
Michael looked around everyone, his eyes swept over everyone who stared at him deeply, and said in a deep voice word by word: "Horizon Group is an example. After it became strong, it tried to reverse the United States' absolute advantage in the global economic system. At the same time, , it also changed China's national defense strength, forcing the United States to make changes in its strategic deployment in East Asia. Assuming that the Minoan Alliance's position on the international stage turns to our enemies, then the situation that the United States will face in the future will be very Severe, I think, when the Minoan Alliance was just a small city, an existence that only needed our full attack to destroy, we had to make a desperate move to eliminate it, so that we would not have to bear the risks we may face in the future. Now is a critical period, It would be dangerous to allow it to develop, and the situation is urgent. Simply put, the Minoan Alliance is not a partner in our camp. In that case, it is an enemy."
As soon as Michael finished speaking, everyone at the table whispered to each other and asked others for their opinions. Most people supported Michael's proposal because they had learned from past mistakes, such as Horizon Group.
After the discussion, John raised his chin and said thoughtfully: "But I have read the military report. Your operation failed a few days ago. The reason has not been found yet. Bullets, missiles, and bombs cannot harm that building at all." Cities. We are desperate, what method are we going to use to eliminate them?"
An unsmiling middle-aged man sitting opposite Michael said in a deep voice: "We have studied that city, and it is obvious that there is no energy access from the outside. A defense system that can eliminate external attacks will obviously consume huge amounts of energy. Therefore, use The simplest tactics are expected to be able to break through the city's defense line. Indiscriminate bombing, dispatching fifth-generation fighter F-22 Raptors to carry out large-scale and sustained air strikes, exhausting the energy they have to maintain the system. If the battle still cannot be resolved, that city The city happens to be over the deserted ground in Africa. Could it be that nuclear missiles can¡¯t destroy it?¡±
The room fell into silence.
John cupped his cheek and thought for a moment, while the others looked at him in unison, waiting for his decision.
The use of nuclear weapons is no joke.
After a long time, John clapped his hands and said softly: "Then, which president should be called to give the order?"
His words obviously supported the previous person's suggestion.
The woman sitting on his right hand stroked her glasses frame and said with a hint of helplessness: "At this time, neither Hillary nor Romney wants to get involved in matters related to that city. My personal thoughts are the same, I want to shift the responsibility to the other party."
Another older woman beside her also said in a deep voice: "The same is true for the voices within the two parties. People are marveling at the modern miracle, but how to face this miracle, few people have thought about whether the United States should show friendship or show friendship. Hostility? If this city turns from a miracle into a nightmare in the future, then who will bear the responsibility?"
Faced with this situation, John was a little caught off guard and said blankly: "You mean, the president doesn't want to do it anymore?"
well
Michael lowered his head and sighed. The reason why he was late was because he heard the latest news and rushed to meet with representatives of several major consortiums to personally confirm the reliability of the intelligence.
The new president of the United States has been elected. Romney, who almost counterattacked the Obama administration eight years ago, broke the 12-year leadership position of the Democratic Party on behalf of the Republican Party.
And this was also the glorious victory of the Republican Party after George W. Bush sadly stepped down. They took turns taking charge, from Hedong to Hexi for thirty years and from Hexi for thirty years. The Democratic Party represented by Hillary Clinton suffered a disastrous defeat. The first female president in the history of the United States did not even participate in the re-election campaign. It can be described as a great shame. She made a mistake in the Sanlaka incident and lied to the people like her husband. This not only caused her political career to end after only four years as president, but also caused the Democratic Party to lose its reputation.Hopes plummeted, and the country was handed over to the Republican Party.
However, Romney will officially take office as president in January next year. It is during this transitional period of power transfer that the incident of Castle in the Sky appeared in the world broke out. The two presidents who are about to become the past and formally inaugurated began to tacitly understand each other. Shift the responsibility to the other party.
Hillary¡¯s cancer was cured, and by the way, she helped advertise Horizon Group¡¯s medical technology. But the irony is that she exchanged her career for her life.
Although the president will no longer be able to serve, he will become a laughing stock. There is only one president in the history of the United States who has voluntarily given up his re-election bid, and that one took over because of the assassination of John F. Kennedy. The Democratic Party was divided against the backdrop of the split of the Democratic Party at that time. He gave up running for re-election, while other presidents who only served for one term were really not too cowardly to dare to stand on the electoral battlefield. Bush only served as president for one term and lost on the electoral battlefield, but at least, he was Defeat, not surrender.
Hillary has not given up on herself, nor will she become a fool and accept any dirty work that attracts criticism in her arms.
That city in the sky has become an international topic. If it is not handled carefully, it will bring unimaginable consequences. It is like a bomb. Hillary will not pull the fuse. At the end of the curtain, what she can do Just pretend to be deaf and mute and not express any opinions.
Coincidentally, Romney, the president who is about to officially take office, is also secretly mobilizing interpersonal relationships to urge the United Nations to quickly come to a conclusion on this matter, and to make a final decision before he officially takes office! (To be continued.)
