Rebirth of the Military Industrial Overlord

"Eric did he really say that?"

"Yes George, he said it in a very positive tone."

"So Brent, what do you think?"

"Eric's inference is basically consistent with the inferences made by our intelligence agencies based on various signs. Therefore, we have reason to believe that the result he predicted is really likely to happen in the near future, and we need to make a difference. Be prepared for the follow-up impact of the series."

George Herbert Walker Bush nodded slightly. As the Vice President of the United States and the former CIA director, he has detailed sources of intelligence. He even knew that there were many acne inside the body of the giant red bear. It has already happened, and the many agents they have worked hard to cultivate have gradually grabbed more and more power, and are accumulating strength for the final victory, waiting for the seemingly fierce one at an appropriate time. In fact, the already weak giant bear took a fatal blow!

When will that time really come?

No one can accurately predict, but everyone knows that if Soviet Russia is forced to withdraw from Afkhan, it will be an obvious signal, a turning point in history. From that day on, the entire Western camp will shift from strategic defense to strategic Attack, and slowly tighten the noose around the giant bear's neck!

After a moment of silence, he asked, "Brent, I have a question, that Eric, will he stand with us?"

Brent. Scowcroft thought for a while before repliing carefully: "At least for now, I think, it should be, we have a common enemy, so at least for now, we don't have to worry about his position."

"I noticed that you used a few time-limiting words, Brent, it is rare for you to use words like this carefully."

"George, you will understand when you meet that little guy. He is too smart, and I have an illusion that under his young appearance, there is a sophisticated heart hidden. He always knows very clearly. He knows exactly what he wants, and he knows how to get what he wants. At the same time, he can always hide his true intentions very well. Frankly speaking, personally, I don’t want my enemies His name is in it."

"It seems that you have a high opinion of him."

"Yes, I have to admit this, and it's not just me. Skeff Mellon has been doing business with this little guy. He even said to me before that he regretted it a little bit and regretted that he had just met Eric. When I was fighting, he didn’t let his ineffective nephew Matthew continue to entangle with him, and Werner, Bush, you know, I have a good relationship with Werner, and we often undertake some business together, Werner’s current You have seen the situation. He was very successful, and as far as I know, a big reason for his success comes from his cooperation with Eric."

"I know that you jointly promoted the OPEC oil production increase and price reduction case and resolved the Lebanon incident." George. Bush frowned, "I also know that behind the two cases, there is the little guy. It seems that you are right. At least for now, Eric still has many common interests with us. but……"

"But we must make a plan B." Brent. Scowcroft said: "Eric once refused to become a U.S. citizen. This is a dangerous signal. We must be prepared for this."

"So, what are you going to do? Brent, I think we talked about it. If I can be elected successfully next year, you will again be the National Security Assistant, and this is obviously what you should consider."

"Busch, I have been thinking about this issue since I came out of Eric’s office. Now, I have some ideas, but to turn these ideas into a real plan B, I still need a special one. People who know very well will be responsible."

"You have already been chosen, right?"

"Yes, I have someone to choose."

"Who?"

"One of my students, she has been paying attention to Eric from the first day he set foot on the country of America. I think no one in America knows Eric better than her."

"she was?"

"Yes, she, and she is still black. She has a Ph.D. from the University of Denver. She is currently an associate professor of international relations and a faculty assistant at Stanford University. By the way, she can speak very fluent Russian and has a very good view on Soviet Russia. Consistent."

"Brent, it looks like you are recommending her to me, your student."

"Yes, Bush, I don’t want to hide this. Condoleezza Rice is my best student. If I become the President’s National Security Assistant again after the general election next year, I hope she will serve as Soviet Russia. Director of the Department of Affairs."

"Soviet Division? Why not Huaxia Division?"

"Because I think that in your first term of office, the main problem we face is still Soviet Russia, and Rice can play a big role in this regard. As for Eric, I think, at least in Until Soviet Russia’s threat is completely eliminated, he will not have a fundamental conflict with us. It can even be said that in most aspects, we will maintain consistent interests. The possibility of plan B being activated is very small. Dr. Rice It only takes a small amount of energy to prepare."

George Herbert Walker Busch nodded slightly, and then after a little thought, he said: "Brent, I agree with your suggestion, then this matter is left to you, now let us talk about it. Another suggestion from this little guy. Regarding Cam Ranh Bay, this is really an interesting suggestion."

"Yeah, I think so too." Brent also smiled. "I never imagined that there will be someone in this world, a single individual who cannot be supported by the power of the country, who will have the courage to challenge it. For the Soviet Russian fleet, should I say he is brave or reckless?"

"Maybe that kid is an admirer of Rambo." George. Bush shrugged his shoulders and joked: "But we should give him some confidence, right? After all, it is Soviet Russia that he wants to challenge."

"But I can't imagine how he will implement this plan. Cam Ranh Bay is one of the best deep-water ports in the world, guarding the strategic passage of the Pacific and Indian Oceans. In 1979, Soviet Russia leased this port from Annan. Later, the Soviet Russians built this port in accordance with the standards of its Western Pacific Fleet Headquarters. Now it has become Soviet Russia’s largest overseas military base. There are more than 30 ships deployed here all year round, of which one-third are Directly fighting ships, the "Minsk" aircraft carrier uses this port as its first berth. I can't imagine how Eric will deal with these big guys."

"So he didn't reveal the specific plan to you?" Bush asked curiously.

Brent. Scowcroft shook his head and said: "He refused to say a word, only made a small request."

"Oh? What's the requirement?"

"He asked us to approve the previous plan of his shipping company to purchase two second-hand dredgers from Holland Boscalis. This contract was suspended and is under investigation due to possible violation of the "Batumi" agreement."

"Uh, wait a minute for Brent, you have to tell me what this Boscaris company in Holland does, and what the dredger can do."

"Well, Bush, let me briefly explain that Holan Boscalis is the world's largest river and port dredging business contracting company. It was established in 1910, and the dredger is naturally the main source of silt cleaning in ports and waterways. Equipped, of course, it is also necessary equipment for the construction of the port. At present, China cannot build it on its own."

"Dredger? Port construction equipment? Haha, it's getting more and more interesting. Does our kid want to build a military port on the opposite side of Cam Ranh Bay? Where can he build it? On the reef? Even if he can do miracles, on the reef A military port was built on Shanghai, where is his fleet? Relying on those sampans of China? Brent, to be honest, I am now more and more looking forward to this meeting with Eric."
