Chapter 1290: Last Two Days to Ask for Monthly Votes at the End of the Month!!! Those Who Don’t Have Monthly Votes Can Cast a Recommendation Vote!!!
The headquarters of the Secret Service is very close to the White House. From the front door of the White House, the small house on the left side of the White House is the headquarters of the Secret Service in the White House. Basically, if you shout louder, the other side can hear it. So when the attack started, all the secret agents at the headquarters immediately took out weapons and bulletproof vests from the armory and planned to rush to the front door of the White House for defense.
Before they could make any move.
A few whistles were heard.
A secret agent just climbed onto the roof, ready to occupy a favorable terrain and start sniping. As a result, countless black objects were seen flying in the sky, which were about the same size as birds from a distance.
But this secret agent was a sniper before joining the Secret Service. He knew one thing very well, that is, birds are actually very smart. The guns and cannons here are roaring, and those flying birds are not deaf. They have already run away. At this time, those who dare to fly here... must not be flying birds!
For safety reasons, the secret agent immediately contacted his superiors to report.
"Sir, there is a suspected drone flying towards us."
The superiors also take it seriously. Washington, DC is a no-fly zone. After the 911 terrorist attacks, the US capital Washington implemented the world's strictest flight restrictions. The Federal Aviation Administration and the Department of Homeland Security established a circular area outside Washington, called the "Air Defense Identification Zone (ADIZ), requiring any aircraft entering to identify themselves in advance. There is also a smaller area, the 15-nautical-mile area around Reagan International Airport is called the No-Fly Zone (FRZ).
In addition, the Federal Aviation Administration has also drawn a no-fly zone with a radius of 25 kilometers over Washington, DC, with the Washington Monument as the center. Any aircraft is strictly prohibited here, remember, any aircraft, unless specially authorized. Otherwise, any unauthorized aircraft will be shot down.
The air defense is mainly provided by the Andrews Air Force Base stationed more than ten kilometers southeast of Washington. The Air Force is responsible. The 121st Fighter Squadron of the 113th Wing of the Air National Guard is responsible for patrolling over Washington and intercepting aircraft entering the no-fly zone. In addition, the Navy has also deployed fighter-attack aircraft at the base to provide reinforcements in case of emergency. To strengthen defense, the U.S. military has also established the "Capital Region Joint Forces Command" at Fort McNair Army Base to coordinate and manage the land, sea and air forces responsible for defending the region.
However, generally speaking, no one takes small remote-controlled aircraft and other aircraft seriously.
But now it is a special situation.
The superiors think that no matter what the reason, it is best not to allow any aircraft to approach the White House.
"Shoot it down immediately!"
"Understood! "
Soon, several Secret Service agents came to the top floor with sniper rifles. There couldn't be only one sniper point. The Secret Service deployed more than six sniper teams on the Secret Service headquarters building.
After receiving the order to shoot down, the six sniper teams immediately sniped the flying drone.
But the next second, the six sniper teams opened their mouths and stared at the sky in the distance.
"Oh my God!"
"Everyone hide!
! Airstrike!
!
"
In the distant sky, there were actually a large number of drones!
It was a black mass, just like migratory birds!
With this number, a few sniper rifles would be useless!
As the sniper team sounded the alarm, several objects like distribution boxes above the Secret Service headquarters suddenly opened, and several thick gun barrels stretched out from them.
That was the most advanced automatic defense system in the United States - Hydra.
Yes, that's the name.
This defensive artillery was originally designed by Stark Group for the Navy. It has a fully automatic fire control and aiming system and is powerful. Each anti-aircraft gun is equipped with 5,000 37mm shells, and the firing rate and initial velocity of the shells are very high. After all, this thing was originally intended to be placed on ships to take on the responsibility of close defense of ships, such as air defense and anti-missile and targeting small surface targets.
For this purpose, the Stark Group installed the most advanced cdc469e system on it, which is responsible for the mathematical calculation, logical judgment and control functions of the system, so as to solve the errors of the fire control system with a large closed-loop correction method. Use the projectile Doppler data to improve the ballistic data of the projectile pre-stored in the computer. The computer stores the ballistic table, which contains the velocity of the projectile near the target, and the radar observes the velocity of the projectile in real time (Doppler), so as to obtain the difference (the difference between the measured velocity and the velocity calculated by the computer), which is then low-pass filtered into the ballistic prediction equation to obtain the muzzle velocity. The muzzle velocity will help estimate the correct projectile flight time.
The projectile impact error observed by the radar is processed by the aiming error estimator and combined with the pre-corrected data as the aiming correction amount. The fire control solution is corrected in real time so that the system obtains zero average aiming error. During the entire shooting process, closed-loop control is used from the time the miss amount is obtained.
In short, it is very advanced.
Of course, advanced means expensive.
So the Navy chose the cheaper Phalanx defense system.
But the Department of Defense still purchased it, on the one hand because of the relationship with the Stark Group, and on the other hand to better protect high-value targets, such as the White House.
A total of thirteen Hydras were set up around the White House.
Nine of them were set up around the main building of the White House, the main protection target, and three were set up at the Secret Service headquarters.
As the drone approached, the Hydra artillery opened fire directly.
As countless eggshells were thrown out, drones were shot down one after another.
But this caused another consequence.
Those drones will explode!
As the drones were shot down, it would be fine if they exploded directly in the air. When they fell to the ground, they would immediately cause countless casualties!
What's worse is that those drones obviously have a very good control system. As the Hydra artillery opened fire, those drones actually scattered like a whole flock of birds. They distanced themselves from each other, some continued to rush straight to the Secret Service headquarters, and the other part began to continue to disperse and attack from multiple directions!
Although the Hydra artillery was very effective, no drone could approach the headquarters building within 300 meters.
But a good tiger cannot stand up to many wolves.
Just three blocks away from the White House, a garbage truck stopped on the avenue.
It directly blocked the traffic, which blocked the civilians who were planning to escape.
Then the driver of the garbage truck opened the door and ran away at a speed of 100 meters, leaving a group of people who were planning to drive to evacuate and cursed.
But the next second, everyone's curses were suppressed.
The steel plate on the garbage truck fell off directly.
Then rows of black pipes were exposed.
The people were shocked.
Even the dumbest people knew that this thing was not a good thing!
Just as the people screamed and fled.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!
One by one, black shadows shot out from those things that looked like gun barrels!
After those things were shot into the air, they actually unfolded directly and turned into drones!
Buzz!
After circling a few times, those drones formed a cluster and flew towards the White House!
This situation continued to appear in the community streets around the White House.
Suddenly, there were so many drones that it felt like they were covering the sky and the sun!
Boom!
The loud noises turned the entire Washington, D.C., into a battlefield! Pennsylvania Avenue became the center of the battlefield!
Under the White House.
The Secret Service protected the president and came to the underground command center.
"What's the situation outside?"
After the White House underground command center was breached once before, this facility was fully upgraded and will no longer be easily breached like last time.
The current White House underground command center needs to be opened from both the inside and the outside to be opened. Otherwise, no matter whether it is the people inside or outside, they cannot open the nearly 80-centimeter alloy door of the underground fortress! At the same time, the structure of the underground fortress has been strengthened. In addition to the reinforced concrete with a thickness of 1.5 meters, the fortress wall also has a 50-centimeter-thick alloy wall for protection.
Even if it is bombed with a nuclear bomb, don't think about blowing it up!
So once the door is closed, unless it is safe inside and outside, the people inside don't want to go out, and the people outside don't want to come in.
"The Secret Service is still fighting the enemy, and the battle is still happening on the periphery. In addition, the reinforcements will arrive in 20 minutes!"
Benjamin looked at his staff and cabinet members with a sullen face.
He felt that the funds he approved were all wasted!
Neither the CIA nor the National Security Agency had any advance warning, and the FBI has not received any news so far. The Shadow Bureau and SHIELD knew a lot about foreign affairs, but now that the enemy had come to their doorstep, they didn't notice it.
As if they had seen the president's death glare, a group of people lowered their heads and dared not look at the president.
What else is there to say?
This is the second time the White House has been attacked!
Not to mention the president, even they themselves feel bad.
It's not that embarrassing.
"Tell me, my secretary. Where is my x-team?" Benjamin took a deep breath. He must solve the problem as soon as possible, the sooner the better! Otherwise, every minute, America's face is being consumed, and the prestige of the federal government will also be damaged.
"I'm sorry, Mr. President..." Defense Minister Ms. McMillan said a little ashamedly: "X-team is now in Alabama... There is a problem there."
X-team was a project prepared by the FBI and the Department of Defense, but later McMillan had a good personal relationship with the president, and the last time the White House fell, the tough attitude and courage of the female defense minister who never bowed her head made her gain a lot of political reputation.
In this kind of electoral system, political reputation can be converted into power.
So under McMillan's operation, the FBI lost control of Team X.
Team X became a special force under the Department of Defense.
The FBI, the Shadow Bureau and S.H.I.E.L.D. protested against this. After all, what does the Department of Defense need such a team for? To fight foreign wars? It's a waste.
Unfortunately, it was useless. The president was persuaded by McMillan.
After all, power struggles are everywhere.
But now, when the president needs it most, Xiao X is not here... This is a bit embarrassing. In order to convince Benjamin, McMillan used S.H.I.E.L.D.'s disobedience as an example, and repeatedly reiterated that the president should retain his extraordinary power, otherwise the president's authority would be insufficient.
She, McMillan, is the president's most loyal partner, and she will control this power very well.
As a result, now...
Benjamin's eyes widened.
Alabama... Is there anything there that is worth the Department of Defense sending Team X?
"I think I need a report!"
Benjamin said almost gritting his teeth.
I don’t care what the Department of Defense is doing in the country. What I care about is that something happened that needed to be handled by the X team, and I, the president, didn’t know about it!
If McMillan wasn’t indeed his staunch political ally, he would definitely question him on the spot.
Then he looked at the Attorney General.
The FBI is under the jurisdiction of the Attorney General.
In the past, the FBI didn’t need the Attorney General. When Kennedy was in office, he was unhappy that the FBI was out of control, so he let his brother serve as the Attorney General, hoping to control the FBI. Then the two brothers were assassinated one after another. Although it cannot be said that the assassination of the two brothers was related to the FBI, the successors will always have a grudge in their hearts.
After seeing this situation, the presidents who followed naturally could not let the FBI go, so after years of hard work, the Attorney General’s control over the FBI became stronger and stronger.
“Our special execution team… is also on the mission.”
The FBI was taken away from the X team by the Department of Defense, so they naturally couldn’t give up, so they also formed their own special ability team.
Unfortunately, their special ability team is no longer there.
As for the CIA next to them… forget it. Now the CIA is having a headache, their special team... has rebelled.
Unlike the Department of Defense and the FBI, the CIA's special team did not recruit mutants, but was composed of super agents created according to their top-secret plan.
[To be honest, I have been using the book to keep up with the latest updates, switching sources, and reading in many voices, both Android and Apple are available. ]
That is the famous Jason Bourne.
However, due to some inconvenient reasons, the CIA determined that Jason Bourne had rebelled. Not only that, but the Stepping Stone Project was also involved.
The so-called Stumbling Stone Project, in simple terms, is an agent training program that only a very small number of CIA executives participated in and knew about. Only officials at level 5 and above have the right to review relevant documents. The Stumbling Stone Project is described as a patriotic plan on the surface, but in fact it is training professional killers to maintain political purposes or cover up CIA scandals in some shady ways. Agents participating in the Stumbling Stone Project were sent to various parts of the world to wait for missions after receiving inhuman physical training, as well as drugs and psychological stimulation.
Usually they have the identity of normal people, just like the big brother and big sister next door, but after receiving the mission, they will immediately enter the agent mode. They are very familiar with guns, blasting, transportation and close combat, and their language ability and escape skills are also very superb. The mission is clean and neat, leaving no trace. Once the mission is completed, they disappear in the crowd, truly coming and going without a trace. Under the control of drugs, they may not even know that they are agents on weekdays, but they will be awakened by special codes, such as a nursery rhyme or a string of characters.
In short, Jason Bourne learned about the Stepping Stone Project and the dirty things behind it, and by the way, he also found out that his father was also killed by the CIA because of this plan. So Jason Bourne defected.
By the way, another plan was involved.
The Black Rose Project...
This caused the CIA to clean up all the participants of the Black Rose Project in order to kill them, including the new generation of super agents born in the Black Rose Project.
Then the CIA was lame again, causing the agents of the Black Rose Project to defect.
Now the CIA is already in a state of panic.
They can't be counted on, and Benjamin is still trying to clean up their messes!
"Well... my friends Kai and Tony are not on Earth now..." At this point, Benjamin's face became worse and worse: "The elites of SHIELD and the Shadow Bureau went to the Arctic..."
Something is wrong!
Very wrong!
"Why are they all at this time... No, no, it should be why these terrorists are at this time."
Everyone present was smart and soon heard the clues.
Yes, how could it be such a coincidence that the terrorists just happened to launch an attack when many elite troops under the US government were no longer there?
This time point was chosen too coincidentally.
It's really not that Benjamin thought too much, but it was too coincidental.
At their position, they don't believe in so-called coincidences at all.
