Chapter 285: Military Request
The small conference room fell silent, and President Bernie Sanders frowned, unable to make a decision.
The problem is so serious that if something goes wrong, the entire human race will be destroyed, and President Sanders will not dare to make any decisions without fully understanding the situation.
"Mr. President, a planet is waiting for us to develop, why should you hesitate to do such a good thing?"
"Mr. President, our army can destroy any enemy, please believe us. ”
"Mr. President, the Miracle Gate is a gift from God. ”
“……。 ”
After waiting for President Sanders' choice for a long time, the five or six generals present couldn't help but urge, and President Sanders's frowning brows were slightly relaxed, and under the influence of the generals, he seemed to be a little moved.
Seeing this, Professor Manli's face turned anxious, and he hurriedly introduced: "Mr. President, generals, the real combat power of the incorruptible foot insect is not so weak, due to the earth's gravity environment, air environment, long-distance teleportation,...... and so on, the sicklefoot failed to show its true lethality. ”
After a pause, Professor Manry's questioning gaze fell on the generals' faces, and he asked, "However, even so, we still suffered heavy losses, if against an army of hundreds of thousands of sickle-footed insects, generals, what price are you willing to bear?"
Hearing this, the faces of several generals couldn't help but become solemn, they had seen the battle video of the sicklefoot and the soldiers, this creature was completely a machine born for killing, with a keen sense of battle, ferocious, tenacious life, not afraid of welding to death, many soldiers died from the sicklefoot death's counterattack.
If they were against such an army of sickle-footed insects, 10,000 sickle-footed insects would be enough to make them pay the price of a division, hundreds of thousands, then .......
The faces of several generals present changed instantly, and they couldn't help but be frightened by the battle situation they imagined.
"Don't mislead us, Professor Manry, the chances of this happening are low! Even so, our air force, the Panzer Corps, is enough to crush any giant insect creature. One of the youngest generals in the scene retorted.
Professor Manli looked at the young general, nodded and admitted, "General Sisley, you are right, our air force unit, the armored corps, is indeed easy to kill a large number of sickle-footed insects. ”
After speaking, Professor Manley looked at President Sanders, changed his words, and introduced: "However, the sicklefoot is only the lowest division of labor of this species, Mr. President, please turn to the fifth page of the anatomical information, the sicklefoot has a pair of undeveloped fleshy wings on its back, if necessary, under the stimulation of some kind of growth hormone, it should be possible to completely evolve a pair of wings, obviously, this species should also have flying bugs." ”
Hearing this, President Sanders hurriedly turned the information in his hand to the fifth page, and the anatomy of the back of the sicklefoot insect was impressive, a symmetrical deformed fleshy wing organ.
Soon, this information was circulated in the hands of the generals, and the meeting immediately fell into a brief silence, and the atmosphere was depressing, as if a diluted treasure had been discovered, which I thought was within reach, but a powerful treasure guardian was discovered, and the treasure was about to be lost, which was really uncomfortable.
General Sisley broke the silence, looked at Professor Manley with reluctance, and asked, "Professor, is this worm intelligent? If not, we can still deal with it." ”
Hearing this, Professor Manli frowned, shook his head helplessly, and said: "I'm sorry, due to the lack of analysis data, I can't make a conclusion, in addition to the complex biological signal receiving system and combat nerves, the sicklefoot brain has not found brain tissue that has thinking and storing memories, but according to the population size of the species and their division of labor, it is likely that there are powerful bugs." ”
"Mr. President, Professor Manry has made the situation very clear, although the risk is not small, but we still have to open the door of miracles, if we can control this planet, we will have an infinite future. ”
"Mr. President, I agree with General Sisley that our army is enough to wipe out all the bugs. ”
"Mr. President, I do not recommend opening the 'door of miracles' immediately, but we still have to be prepared, and if we don't open it now, it doesn't mean we won't open it in the future. ”
"That's right, we can't give up on the planet linked to the 'Miracle Gate'. ”
“……。 ”
After listening to Professor Manley's presentation, the generals became less radical, looked at President Sanders, and expressed conservative proposals.
Listening to the attitudes expressed by the generals, President Sanders couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, it is imperative to explore the other side of the planet at the 'Miracle Gate', but it can be prepared for five or seven years, maybe when the door of miracles is opened, he is no longer in the position of president, and when the time comes, the huge and heavy decision to open the 'Door of Miracles' may not require him to make a choice.
President Sanders nodded with a smile, looked at everyone, and asked, "Generals, what kind of preparations do we have to make?"
"Mr. President, a 'Steel Megacity' must be built to fortify the 'Miracle Gate'.
"Mr. President, we should expand the size of the army and add 5-8 military bases around the 'Miracle Gate' to prevent anything from happening to the 'Miracle Gate'. ”
"Mr. President, we need to develop a weapon to restrain the giant insect creatures, Professor Manry, and we'll send a military weapons expert to consult with you when the time comes. ”
"Mr. President, we must increase our investment in the research of the 'Miracle Gate', and we must find the right way to control the 'Miracle Gate' as soon as possible. ”
“……。 ”
As soon as President Sanders's words fell, the generals' eyes lit up one by one, and they expounded with emotion that they couldn't have liked this kind of military action more, which often means that their military power and financial power can be greatly improved.
President Sanders nodded and asked them, "Generals, trouble, you guys tell me an approximate number." ”
"To build a 'defensive steel city', expand the army, add another 5-8 military bases, weapons development, and increase the scientific research force of the 'Miracle Gate', Mr. President, we need about 500 billion dollars. General Wells made an estimate and replied.
Hearing this, President Sanders' face changed, and he immediately vetoed it, saying: "Impossible, the country doesn't have so much money." ”
Because of the relationship of Xingyao Group, the profits of many high-tech enterprises in China have declined, the financial market is turbulent, and the number of unemployed people receiving relief funds has been rising, which has seriously affected the country's fiscal revenue, resulting in government debt like a snowball.
