Go back in time and be a chaebol

Chapter 1306 Doomsday Clock Midnight (Third update, please subscribe)
In another world, October 10th was known as "Black Saturday". It was the most climax, tense, dangerous and critical day during the entire crisis.

"On this day, the outbreak of nuclear war came closer than at any other time in the nuclear age."

This is what people in later generations said.

At the same time, the price of air tickets from Los Angeles to Southeast Asia has risen to US$9000 per ticket, but even so, there is no demand because no one can buy the tickets. The saying "tickets are hard to come by" is now. Those with quick brains have already flown to Mexico and then chartered flights from Mexico to Southeast Asia at a high price.

Anyway, at this time, all the rich people are fleeing!
They are trying every possible way to escape.

Reagan and Nancy also got in their cars and, along with thousands or tens of thousands of other cars, headed south along the interstate.

At this time, the interstate highway was already crowded with cars, and all the cars were heading in one direction - south!
Towards Mexico.

“Are we really going to Mexico?”

Nancy looked at Reagan and recalled their love time. Although the two of them met during the filming of a movie and they would quarrel over some differences, they were more sweet during the process of love. She could feel that their hearts were more closely connected.

Later, they got married, and then had children. Then, just as they were looking forward to a new life in the future, the end of the world happened... Although it hasn't come yet, who knows?
“Mexico should be safer.”

As Reagan spoke, he looked in the rearview mirror at his adopted son Michael, daughter Patricia, and five-year-old son Ronald Jr.

Looking at them, Reagan's eyes flashed with a hint of determination, and then he looked out the car window. What came into view was a desolate mountain range with large dark clouds on the mountains, which looked like smoke and a surging sea.

The black smoke seemed to be the breath of the God of Destruction, as if telling the people on the ground that the end of the world was approaching. Occasionally, fighter jets whizzed past in the sky. Although no one knew where they were flying to, Reagan became more resolute as he watched the planes flying away.

At this time, the congested road finally got stuck in traffic, and tens of thousands of cars were stuck here.

People can only wait anxiously, waiting for the road to be restored, but in fact, this is simply impossible.

“Everybody is driving toward Mexico.”

A man listening to the radio in front of him shouted:
“Mexicans, it looks like the Mexicans have closed their borders!”

"What? Damn it, do those Mexicans want us all to die here?"

"Damn those Mexicans! They want us all to die here, and then they'll take over California after the world war!"

"Any more news?"

Reagan, who was sitting in the car, did not participate in the outside discussion. On the car radio, the Governor of California was giving a speech to comfort everyone:
"Although the current situation is still very tense, it has not deteriorated further. Everyone should stay at home as much as possible to avoid being stuck in traffic..."

"If anything happens, we can go to the nearby desert."

Reagan turned to 17-year-old Michael and said:

"Michael, go find some water, we need to be prepared!"

"But, Dad, didn't the governor say that the situation wasn't that tense?"

Listening to his son's words, Reagan said directly:

"I'm an actor, I can tell who is reciting a script!"

On this day, everyone is making a decision, for themselves and for their family!
In Washington, in the White House, there is a person who also has to make a decision!

At this moment, Kennedy, who was already extremely anxious, was in unprecedented tension. He had to come up with an idea that would satisfy both parties, but he did not dare to make a hasty decision.

After all, the final decision is not about choosing a Hollywood actress, but about the life and death of this world!
It determines the destruction of the world.

and then?
Nuclear winter is coming!
What comes after nuclear winter?
It’s the Ice Age, it’s the end of the world, it’s the extinction of mankind!

Not only Kennedy felt this way, but his staff also thought so. Some pessimistic people even said goodbye to their families quietly. Of course, some White House staff had quietly left here. They had already felt the crisis. The most important thing now was to be with their families, whether they escaped or waited for the end of the world!
Just when Kennedy was in a dilemma and extremely anxious, a U.S. Air Force U-2 high-altitude reconnaissance plane was shot down over Benes, Cuba. Before he could digest this and stop the Pentagon's reckless advance, another unexpected incident occurred over there. A U.S. U-2 plane was lost inexplicably while flying in the Arctic region and entered Soviet airspace. The Soviet Union urgently dispatched a group of fighters to intercept it, although the United States immediately sent fighters to retrieve the reconnaissance plane. At the same time, in Moscow, the Soviet Air Defense Force reported to the Kremlin that a U.S. plane had entered Soviet airspace in the Arctic region.

"We believe this is the Americans conducting reconnaissance in preparation for the next bombing."

After receiving this report from the Air Defense Force, Khrushchev also felt that the situation was extremely urgent. After all, a few hours ago, the Soviet intelligence agency had cracked the US military's code - Kennedy ordered missiles to be aimed at more than 200 cities in the Soviet Union!

Now the planes are coming again, this really looks like a nuclear war is about to break out!

Faced with such extreme pressure, Khrushchev realized that he had to make an appropriate decision immediately, and immediately convened a meeting. After learning of this situation, all the participants and marshals fell silent, and Khrushchev immediately said:
"Comrades, now we must find an honorable way out of this confrontation."

When he finished speaking, everyone in the conference room fell silent. No one wanted to perish together with the United States, and it was very likely that the Soviet Union would be razed to the ground, while the United States would only have dozens of cities turned into ruins. Everyone would do the math, and this deal was not cost-effective.

Only a few marshals said angrily that if the United States dared to attack the Soviet Union, they would raze all of Europe to the ground in the first place. But when they said this, they also showed their guilty conscience - because the Soviet Union was not strong enough to destroy the United States!
We can only take Europe as a hostage!

"In order to prevent those American warmongers from taking risks, we must be prepared!"

Marshal Chuikov said:
"Therefore, we must mobilize the troops in Eastern Europe and prepare our air force for attack. Once the Americans take action, we will completely destroy Europe at the first opportunity and turn all of Western Europe into ruins!"

Looking at the silent crowd, Zhukov, a Soviet marshal who became famous in World War II, said:

"I will go to East Germany now. Once the war breaks out, I will immediately order the army to attack. We will never stop until the enemy is defeated!"

No one doubted Chuikov's will. After all, during the Great Patriotic War, he was famous for his resolute implementation of iron orders at all costs.

"Yes, I agree with the Marshal. The United States is not just testing us. They may launch an attack at any time. We cannot be unprepared."

"Yes, in 1941, we already made a mistake with Hitler. We cannot make the same mistake again!"

This is exactly the post-traumatic stress syndrome brought about by the Great Patriotic War!
The "Great Patriotic War" that broke out suddenly, with almost no signs or preparation, left a very deep impression on the memories of everyone in the Soviet Union. It was for this reason that they dared not take risks again. In the cognition of the Soviet marshals and generals, there was always only one point of view - "We must be prepared!".

Under such circumstances, the Soviet Union took the second step - the full mobilization of the troops stationed in Eastern Europe and Eastern European countries. At the same time, the Soviet Union's medium and long-range bombers were put into combat readiness, and the MiG-4 intercontinental bomber also began combat readiness cruises.

What's even more terrible is that the US reconnaissance satellite discovered that the Soviet Su-7 fighter-bombers stationed in East Germany were ready to take off. This is a tactical bomber that can carry nuclear bombs. Although its combat radius is only a few hundred kilometers, it is enough to destroy the Federal Republic of Germany!

In addition, the Il-28 bomber and other bombers were also preparing for the attack. Everyone could see that the Soviets were planning to take action!
It can be said that the situation has shifted in another direction!

At this point, the situation has become extremely critical, even out of control, and a nuclear war is about to break out!
Faced with one bad news after another, the entire White House was shrouded in a heavy atmosphere of "pessimism and depression". Although the United States had made all preparations for the war, they still didn't know, no one knew, whether the next day would bring a war of destruction or the bell of peace.

At this moment, the Doomsday Clock has finally reached its final moment!

"Robert, what should we do?"

In the Oval Office in Whitehall, Kennedy looked at his brother and said:
"Are we really going to destroy the world? Those generals think we can win."

Unlike the tension in the White House, there was excitement in the Pentagon. They were ready. As soon as the president gave the order, they would launch an attack on the Soviet Union worldwide at the first possible moment.

"Even if we win, there will only be ruins left!"

Robert said:
"Now, we must find a way to end all this, otherwise all of us will become sinners in this world, John, you and me, all of us!"

He is really scared!

It’s not the fear of becoming a sinner, but the fear of the end of the world!
Just as Robert finished speaking, his door opened and the office director hurried in and said:

"Mr. President, the phone is coming from Southeast Asia."
