Six Hundred and Eighty-Eight: Intelligence
In the U.S. Congress, Congressman Jerry held a document to impeach the current government at the meeting.
His sudden opening made the originally harmonious atmosphere immediately point the finger at the president.
Congressman Jerry said: "At this juncture, please give us an explanation from the president as to why he chose to station troops in a mercenary land?"
The president took the prepared document and felt that it was no longer needed. He didn't know what to say. He looked at Jerry and thought: Why don't you die? Don't you have cancer? What a nosy person.
But he said: "Isn't this obvious? The Middle East accounts for half of the world's oil. Although they are not powerful countries, don't forget that most of the U.S. national debt is in their hands. These tycoons do not treat money as money. It’s the same thing. The country can’t do this by pinching America’s nose these years, so what’s the problem with stationing mercenaries in the world’s second largest mercenary land with oil reserves?”
"No problem." Jerry said.
"So what do you have to say?"
Jerry took out a document and said: "I received a piece of information here, accusing you of covering up the defeat of two soldiers stationed in the mercenary land. This is very unfair to the soldiers who died. And I also heard that now There are still more than seventy soldiers on the run, President, are you so calm and don't care about their lives?"
The president's face changed slightly: "Jerry, you have to use your brain when you speak."
"I have a list of people who died this time. If you don't believe that the president allowed these people to enter the land of mercenaries, you can check in the police station system whether the people on my list are army soldiers. In addition, they all have passports. A record of going to the same place in unison. There were two times in total, one time with 80 people and one time with 200 people. More than 200 people were lost and sacrificed in the defeat. Let me ask the president, what benefits did you bring to the United States in this battle?"
"This..." The president suddenly didn't know what to say.
To be precise, he didn't take any advantage and had nothing to say.
After a long while, he said forcefully: "Congressman Jerry, I ask you to clarify the situation. Are you the president or am I? You are not in office yet, so everything I do is decided by the parliament, and you have no right to interfere." .”
"I have no intention of interfering, but I have an obligation to let everyone know what you are doing and what you have done wrong. You rashly stationed troops in a mercenary land. This is obviously a thankless act. If this matter is exposed, it will It’s no different than previous Israeli scandals.”
The president slammed the table and said in a deep voice: "Jerry, I ask you to think carefully about how much damage this matter will have to the image of the American government if it is exposed?"
Jerry: "You're wrong. I'm just disappointed in your decision-making as a president, not the image of America."
The president looked at Jerry thoughtfully, and suddenly the two of them felt a tense situation. Not only them, but as this secret operation was exposed, the members of the democratic camp suddenly became sensitive.
At this time, the most active ones are the Republicans who are fighting against democracy.
They felt that Jerry was really good at causing trouble.
But they like it.
"Congressman Jerry is right, there was a lack of consideration in this action."
The president felt that he had to pull out the arrow.
He dismissed the representatives from the Republican Party on the spot, and said forcefully: "Since it's been made public, let me be frank and talk about my interests. I am bound to win the land of mercenaries!"
If the land of mercenaries can really be taken over by the United States, it will be a great joy. After all, if the country benefits, their interests will benefit the same. Although the two parties agree on the political power and it is a life-and-death struggle, there are some rich people behind it. It's just a money game. Whoever gets the mercenary land will benefit. At most, it will end with more and less for both sides.
"You go on." The opponent Republicans motioned for the president to continue.
The president looked around at all the representatives and said forcefully: "As for the defeat of the first garrison, I admit that I neglected the harsh climate environment there without fully understanding the mercenary land. Everyone, I think What I’m saying is that the place there is far more complex and dangerous than we imagined, and for our soldiers, the terrain and environment are no less important than conquering the Vietnam War that year!”
Jerry sneered: "Do you mean that defeat is within your reason? Or that this battle is destined to end in defeat? In this case, why do you still want soldiers to die? You don't respect their human rights! "
The president said loudly and passionately: "Anyone who achieves great things does not stick to trivial matters! Everyone sitting here should know how much we are willing to pay for crude oil! The United States is good at everything and leads all countries in all aspects, but only in crude oil resources, We have been being pinched by the thugs in the Middle East. Therefore, crude oil and underground mineral resources are political tasks for us! Not to mention me taking office, even if it were all of you sitting here, you would try your best to do something in this regard. . Therefore, I think everyone present will definitely not object to this price in exchange for a legitimate reason to enter the mercenary land. We can take this opportunity to argue that there is no government in the mercenary land that can control the situation. Worried about the destruction of the country’s own citizens, let the peacekeeping troops enter with the slogan of seeking peace!”
The eyes of everyone present lit up.
The peacekeeping forces are led by the United Nations Special Forces and are military forces with the mission of supervising the armistice.
Since the United States will be blocked by other countries from stationing troops, no one will object to letting peacekeeping troops come forward.
Jerry didn't expect that the president in front of him would have the courage to save his position in the face of battle. He felt that he lost tonight.
Back in his villa, Jerry threw his coat directly on the sofa. He said to his assistant: "Contact Mr. Statham for me and make an appointment."
"Okay Congressman."
Statham came to Jerry's house at night.
Jerry drank a glass of red wine and said a little decadently: "Today I impeached the president, but this guy is really good at it. I guess there will be no way for him to lose points in front of those capitalists for the time being."
Statham: "Tell me, what's going on?"
After Jerry briefly told Statham what happened today, he tentatively asked, "Does your boss have any information?"
Statham was smoking and silent, thinking and digesting the information Jerry told him.
After a long time, he tentatively asked: "Mr. Jerry, have you ever joined any organization?"
Jerry frowned: "What do you mean?"
Statham: "For example...the Jews have their power groups, and the blacks have their guilds. What about you? Do you want to join a new organization?"
Jerry shook his head: "Sorry, I don't have that intention at the moment."
"Understood." Statham nodded, stood up and said, "Then, I will tell you if there is any information."
When Jerry walked Statham to the door, he couldn't help but ask: "Is your boss also in this organization?"
"Every organization has a confidentiality agreement, sorry." Statham said to him.
"Understood." Jerry nodded, but it seemed that Statham seemed very mysterious and cautious, which made him a little curious about the organization in his mouth.
