Chapter 701: Specially Able to Fight (Third update, please subscribe)
Facing McCarthy's smiling face, Li Yi'an was also touched in his heart.

This guy says he's a politician, but a lot of the time, he's actually a very genuine guy.

Li Yi'an has always been very sincere and generous to his old friends. This generosity is not just reflected in money.

Just like Truman, he likes Li Yian because of his status as a life mentor.

It can be regarded as the advice given to McCarthy before leaving, and Li Yian once again acted as a life mentor.

"My friend, I have many friends in the UK and the United States. Sincere politicians like you are very rare, sincere and real. That is why you will stand up and speak out for Americans, but you have to Be careful not to be taken advantage of by others.”

McCarthy was also moved by Li Yi'an's true feelings. He knew that this was a reminder between friends, so he said quite touchedly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. There are only two kinds of people in Washington, one is useful and the other is not useful, and everyone is trying to be the former. If you are the latter, just like me a few years ago... … It can be thrown away at any time, so exploiting is just the rule of the game in Washington.”

In fact, this is the fundamental reason why he cherishes this friendship very much. There is no friendship at all in Washington. Only players who play within the rules of the game.

But his Majesty treated him sincerely. That's why I stood up and spoke for him in the first place.

"But you have to be careful not to attack forces that are too powerful. Some departments with small energy can be attacked directly, but some departments cannot be touched, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous. For example, the military, just a few years after the war, those generals The reputation accumulated during the war is their capital. Even Truman does not dare to offend Mike. For now, the military is the department that should be in good hands. "

McCarthy smiled slightly.

Just like the aid to Nanyang this time, even the White House was hesitant and pretended not to see other old friends.

But the most fundamental starting point is friendship.

"Joseph, in the political game, we may always follow one principle - not to antagonize the strong."

"All right……"

"Your Majesty, Washington is different from where you are. We elected members must use some methods to attract the attention of public opinion. Otherwise, we are destined to be forgotten. Once forgotten, our political life will be over. Therefore, there are Sometimes we need some gimmicks.”

"That's true, but..."

Li Yian nodded and said,

Historically, after criticizing the political and cultural circles, this guy got a little carried away and attacked the military circles, and then resigned in disgrace. Li Yi'an's reminder to him was not out of concern for his friends, but out of concern for his friends. It's because McCarthy is very good at fighting, and he values ​​friendship very much. When things happen to him, he really gets involved.

"I see."

Listening to the heartfelt words of his old friend and feeling the sincerity he had never experienced before, McCarthy finally agreed.

In fact, McCarthy is very clear about the role he plays now. He needs to constantly create stunts to make himself appear in front of the media. Only in this way can everyone know about him and gain a longer political life.

That is to say, this guy, without saying a word, went straight up and labeled the congressmen who blocked the aid as Russian spies. Good guy, in terms of combat effectiveness, this guy is absolutely powerful. You have to find a way to keep such an old friend! It may come in handy in the future.

It's all about the friendship between the two people. It's over, outside of friendship. There are also some things that can be exploited, such as using this matter to attack opponents. Use this to increase your exposure.

"Your Majesty, my friend, I will remember your advice. When you leave Washington, I will definitely go there to see you off."

At this point, there was no need to talk nonsense anymore, Li Yian took the initiative to raise his glass and said.

"May our friendship last forever."

Li Yian said as he raised his glass and drank all the whiskey in the glass. "Joseph, whether you will be an important person in Washington in the future or you will remain silent, you will still be my friend, a true friend."

"Your Majesty, it is my honor to know you. I hope our friendship will last forever."

McCarthy also became sentimental. He was a rare and very real politician in Washington. Next, he naturally said some very touching words, and at the same time talked about the gifts he had prepared.

"I will ask Congress to increase assistance to Nanyang. My friend, please believe me, I will definitely promote this matter."

"Actually, I would rather you be more cunning, my friend. This is not what a qualified politician does."

Li Yian sighed with a look on his face.

"In front of you, there will always be only friends and no politicians!"

McCarthy said while joking.

"But walking out of here, it's just McCarthy who's like crazy!"

Then he repeatedly promised that he would never "become an enemy of the strong."

In this way, the two finally ended the topic, and then started chatting again, naturally talking about Li Yi'an's beauty.

Until now, some Americans are still worried about Heidi going to Nanyang with him.

In response, Li Yian naturally just laughed.

……

Two days later, Li Yi'an got on the train to New York. The reason he chose the train was because at this time, the road network in the United States was...very broken. It was not until after Eisenhower was elected president that he launched the U.S. highway plan, which was inconsistent with When he was young, he participated in a car trip across the continental United States and experienced first-hand the backward road system in the United States. Of course, another reason is that during World War II, he commanded the Allied forces to invade Germany and was amazed by Germany's developed highways. Unstoppable, he began to long for the establishment of a "broad ribbon across the land" in the United States.

So after being elected president, Eisenhower immediately began drawing a blueprint for highway construction in the United States. Although he had some grudges with Eisenhower, there is no such thing as a grudge against a politician. During his visit to the United States two years ago, Li Yi'an went to Columbia University while he was in New York. On the one hand, he visited international students, and on the other hand, he naturally talked with As the principal, Ike toasted to the past together.

However, when I go to New York this time, I will obviously not see him. Now Ike is in Europe as the Supreme Commander of NATO's European Allied Forces.

"It's a pity that when he was in England, he was in Turkey. Otherwise, it would be nice to deepen our relationship."

However, Li Yi'an knew very well that Ike was destined not to become his old friend. After all, old friends met at the grassroots level. Unless there was a connection of interest, the two parties would be just acquaintances.

But this will have little impact on Nanyang. After all, that guy learned the lessons of the United States' fall into the Korean War and actively pursued the policy of piecing together military groups. In this case, he will only increase assistance to Nanyang. After all, after he pieced together In the military group, there is always a need for someone who can fight.

Among the few small Karas in Southeast Asia, the only one that can point to the top is Nanyang. Moreover, there is also the help of Soviet Russia.

Thinking that in the next few years, the cooperation between Indonesia and Soviet Russia will continue to deepen. After Maize comes to power, Maize will definitely increase its assistance to Indonesia. The greater the movement of Russia, the greater the threat the United States will feel. , help will naturally come.

This is simply a pillow for someone who is sleepy!

"It seems that the original choice of not beating Indonesia to death was still correct. With him jumping up and down there, Nanyang can look cute!"

While sneering, Li Yian turned his gaze out of the car window and looked at the familiar scenery outside the window. His mind couldn't help but think of the train encounter a few years ago. I have to say that some things are always so unforgettable.
