206 President's Decision

After John and Crowe's secret operations in Africa, a week later, the White House security meeting was held again, but this time the content of the meeting was no longer aimed at the Asgards far away in the alien world, but the human country on the same planet----* *Recently submitted a Wakanda human rights status review report, it is said that a kind and enlightened duke in the country was forced to seek assistance from the international community under pressure from the upper echelons, hoping to use external forces to curb the increasingly severe treatment of innocent people by the royal family brutal rule.

No one cares about the specific details of the report, but because the country has extremely valuable mineral resources, economic value and military value are unparalleled, so once the news was disclosed, representatives from all walks of life in the political and economic circles attended and participated. Ross definitely, who has been promoting the plan behind the scenes, is no exception .

On the day when the meeting was held, the East Room of the White House, which could accommodate three hundred guests, was filled with a group of people representing the highest ranks of the entire country. Yue heard the intense conversation in the hall, like a competition whose voice was louder, and from time to time there was an excited voice sounding inside

Soon it was replaced by other voices.

"Wakanda is a very special African country. It is worth noting that its entire history has never been conquered by the foreign enemy "470." Everett, an expert on African issues, stood in the center of the hall and pointed to several maps for everyone. However, the crowd below didn’t care about the country’s history at all. The generals and bureaucrats kept whispering and buzzing like annoying flies. Just watch the valuation report on Vibranium deposits in hand, and look for possible interests from their own perspectives.

 ….Before you make your decision, I ask you to consider the unique historical heritage of the region, the British, the French, the Belgians...or any number of Christian and Arab invaders never Defeating the Wakanda people on the battlefield, they have a martial tradition, a bit like Yuenan or Japan, and they also have a well-equipped modern army, their strength should not be underestimated..."

Everett raised his voice in vain amidst the noise, trying to prove that Wakanda is different from other African countries, but his words were quickly interrupted by General Thaddeus Ross, who was present at the meeting on behalf of the Army.

"Please get to the point, Mr. Advisor, do they have a cooperative relationship with the Russians or Magneto's Latvinia?" The weather was hot, the general unbuttoned two collar buttons of his military uniform, and sat in the military representative's seat from a distance to look at the poor The advisor yelled.

 … They are not allied with any country, including the not-so-distant Union of African States and OPEC, although they may have substantial oil resources, according to geologists. "Facing the aggressive general, Advisor Everett could only answer honestly.

Although the value of oil at At the moment has gradually declined, this answer still caught the eyes of many representatives related to the energy industry.

"To mobilize public opinion..."

"Bigger than all of Nigeria..."

"Think about it, so much money lying there..."

Greed is like a blazing | hot torch, which immediately ignites human ambitions, and various voices resound in the hall.

Faced with such a helpless and isolated kingdom--not strong enough in force, but rich in wealth, not stable enough to provide sufficient excuses for foreign interference--Everett really I can't think of any power that can prevent everyone here from holding back their greed and not activating the War Machine.

Perhaps the only resistance at this time is the Congress. The consortium controls the entire country, but it is inevitable that some members will stand up to resist in order to win votes, but that may not be effective. The Constitution gives Congress the power to declare war, but if the president really makes a decision Determined, there will always be a way to bypass Congress to launch military operations. In fact, the United States has never officially declared war since the end of the war, but wars in North Korea, South Korea, Iraq and Afghanistan still occurred. The War Powers Act of 1973 "allows the president to carry out military activities for a period of 60 days without the consent of Congress. The above military operations are the product of this decree.

Just as he thought, the big shots in the Security Committee only cared about their interests, the vice president, the secretary of state, the minister of finance, and the head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff whispered around the president, and the excited generals couldn't even wait to ding their heads The boss made up his mind and started discussing the actual combat plan directly, as if they had obtained authorization in advance and could send troops into the Wakanda border at any time.

General Thaddeus even stood up and waved his arms vigorously, shouting passionately at the crowd.

"We don't need to worry about Wakanda's powerful fighters. Asgard is stronger. Magneto and Speed ​​still dare to rush into their lair. Compared with Mutant, will the 1.4 million United States troops be afraid of Wakanda's barbarians? Don't forget me The Thunder Commandos, the soldiers are always ready to serve the country!"

"Earth is our home field. We are obliged to maintain the security and stability of the entire world. Defeat Wakanda as soon as possible. Develop rich Vibranium resources. The national economy and military technology can be beneficially supplemented. If we give up fighting, we can only look at our own backyard." It is becoming more and more chaotic, and the future battle plan against the Asgard people may also be affected, now is the time to judge who is the real man, behind us is the whole earth, if we want to be free, we must not give in to evil!"

He unabashedly showed his covetousness towards Wakanda. This attitude was very in line with the wishes of the representatives of various consortiums in the observation booth. Many people also stood up and raised their arms and shouted. The atmosphere quickly climbed to a new peak.

Amidst the enthusiasm, a sharp gaze sensitively noticed that the general looked at Ross from a distance, the two seemed to have some kind of ulterior understanding, the owner of that gaze patrolled them for several weeks, Then he turned his gaze to the congressional seat, under the silent urging of this gaze [Stern, the head of the Senate Armed Services Committee, interrupted Thaddeus's speech with great reluctance.

"General, I remember that the Thunder Commando has been cooperating with companies affiliated with cutting-edge laboratories. Does this mean that in your plan, security companies like Overwatch will also become an indispensable member of military operations?"

Instead of targeting the general, the senator quietly targeted Ross and the cutting-edge laboratory.

It is not a new thing for security companies to undertake defense orders, but it is not a good thing for a reputable research institution like Advanced Lab to be too involved in overseas military operations. Negative impact.

So before the general could answer, Ross intercepted the senator's hostile question.

"As a research-oriented organization dedicated to advanced technology, our philosophy has always been peaceful development. The Watcher is just an accidental product born in a special period. Now all the shares under my name have been handed over to Mr. Coyne Marco. The senator can Directly consult the opinion of Chairman Marco...."

He pointed his hand to the side, and the triumphant Juggernaut appeared in everyone's sight.

At the moment Juggernaut has restrained his strength and his body shape has become close to that of an ordinary person. He is wearing a pen-tinged formal suit and looks like a basketball player sitting by the water fountain. No one can recognize that this is the previous battle with Hulk in Manhattan super strong man.

Although Juggernaut has a rough personality, he is definitely not a fool. He has received Ross's instructions in advance, so he naturally knows what opinions to express at this time.

"Watchman's decision is not to participate in the war, but we are willing to provide quality security services to our citizens who are at risk, and definitely do not exclude active military personnel

Juggernaut's powerful voice echoed above the hall, and Senator Stern couldn't help but feel his heart pounding.

Now who doesn't know that Marc is Ross's cousin, he means what Ross means, and what's the difference between saying that and going straight to war?

But in a literal sense, the Overwatch still did not send employees into battle, and the cutting-edge laboratory after the separation of relations has no reason to accept moral condemnation.

Seeing that the other party pushed the responsibility to the ground, the senator was also a little embarrassed for a while, but the gaze from a distance was always staring at him coldly, so he had to continue to find excuses.

Just when the senator wanted to stir up the topic again, the president surrounded by his staff finally made the final decision.

President Adams, who is forty-nine this year, is in the prime of life. As the youngest president in nearly a hundred years, he is at the happiest stage of his life, but he has his own concerns, that is, he has achieved nothing in the past two years since he took office, and the domestic economy has not improved. , international affairs suffered frequent setbacks, and dealing with Mutant did not achieve the desired effect, but gave birth to a Mutant country like Latvinia; the leaders of various countries gathered together to call on the world to sanction Magneto's evil organization, and the result attracted foreigners Planet Asgard 1.9 German invaders.

Now as far as Adams knows, the domestic media has nicknamed himself a "surfer". This nickname is definitely not out of compliment, but to ridicule him for always challenging huge waves, but every time without exception Some of them fell from the waves, and their bodies were smashed.

This nickname has always been a pain in the heart of the President, but he can't find a way to wash away the shame. Magneto and Asgard are not easy to deal with, so he can only bear it for the time being.

Fortunately, Wakanda gave him a chance. After the analysis of his staff, the president suddenly found that his career was facing a turning point. If he can successfully solve this closed and conservative country, his reputation may undergo a huge change. At the same time, he could also obtain strong support from the consortium. Driven by this idea, he finally made a decision to announce a military strike against the Wakanda royal family until freedom came in the country.

"You have sixty days to win, General, don't let me down like Stryker did," the President whispered as he passed Thaddeus.

As the president and others left, the line of sight in the distance slowly patrolled the hall for a week, and then quietly retracted.

A one-eyed black man stood up from his seat and followed the crowd to leave the White House. .
