Chapter 185: Appeal

Even in the entire history of the United States, Ulysses Monroe Polk can be regarded as a very effective president, he can be said to be one of the most high-profile political figures in recent years, playing the economic card to power, in office for nearly eight years, the United States' comprehensive national strength has been steadily rising, an economy has gradually shown a decline in the world's largest power to the right track, he launched two wars against some small countries during his reign, deterring countries around the world while also completely uniting the hearts of the country's people, this superpower has been threatened by countless powerful opponents, in his hands suddenly rose, directly throwing the other opponents away from a distance.

President Ulysses Monroe Polk has a fairly high approval rating in Congress, among the people, and even among some of the big chaebols, and is moderate at home and tough on the outside, and such a political leader, who can almost be said to be far-sighted, is likely to re-ascend to the presidency by a landslide if there are no accidents.

The extension of his political life is his primary concern at the moment.

The only one who broke this convention was President Franklin D. Roosevelt about a hundred years ago, the president who broke the convention during the war, and the longest-serving president in American history, with a term of office of 12 years and 40 days, and Ulysses's greatest ambition was to surpass President Roosevelt's tenure.

Although the U.S. Constitution clearly stipulates that no one may serve more than two terms as president, and no one who takes over or acts as president for more than two years during the term of another person as president may not serve as president for more than two years.

This constitution has also become the best weapon for Ulysses's political opponents to attack him, and Ulysses's strengths lie in his political achievements, prestige, high approval ratings, and age.

Especially age.

He is on the young side of the U.S. presidency, and with his impressive accomplishments, he feels he can make an exception, totally.

And a lot of others think so, too.

For more than half a year, Ulysses has been operating quite successfully, making frequent appearances in various fields, giving speeches, talking about his governance measures, and so on, all of which have received very positive feedback.

Ulysses was so confident that he could almost see that the next presidency was beckoning to him.

If

If there was no U.S. government to take in Jiang Jinhao, a traitor to the Shenzhou Empire.

This incident almost directly pushed Ulysses into the abyss.

Jiang Jinhao is the cause of a series of things, it is because of him that the Shenzhou Empire sent super agent Lin Xiaocao, and then, this super agent of the Shenzhou Empire didn't know what was crazy, and directly broke the rules and regulations of the agent, stood on Columbia TV, and provoked the US government in front of the whole world.

Under World War I, 4,156 civilians died, 843 elite police officers died, and the United States' secret service system, known as the number one in the dark world, was almost wiped out!

This is simply an unavoidable bad effect, and the damage caused to Ulysses is almost unimaginable.

Every life is like a slap in the face of the president and the government, and it is also in front of the eyes of the whole world, which fully demonstrates the cowardice and incompetence of the US government and the secret service system.

It's a complete disgrace!

Moreover, after World War I, several secret research bases in the United States were all looted by mysterious people, which can be described as heavy losses, which directly led to a sharp decline in internal and external support for Ulysses, casting a heavy shadow on his political demands.

The sudden entry of thirteen X-level masters into the US secret service system after the war made all aspects of the United States even more shocked and vigilant, and in the short period of the game, all aspects of the United States became a mess.

At this time, Ulysses, who should have been anxious, suddenly quieted down.

Whenever the night.

At the end of the day, President Ulysses would sit on the balcony of the White House, cup of coffee, and watch the lights of Washington D. Ton at night.

The president liked the sense of tranquility, which made him feel more at peace and could focus more on the situation in the country.

The rain gently beat on the thick night, and in the darkness, everything about the president was faint, and it seemed that all of them were swallowed up by the darkness, and even the political officer next to the president could not see his face clearly.

The phone rang suddenly.

The energetic administrative officer took out the phone and looked at it, his eyes lit up, and he directly connected the phone.

The talk time of the phone is less than a minute.

The administrative officer said a few words to the person on the other end of the phone, then hung up the phone, stepped forward, stood beside the president, bowed, and said, "Mr. President, Mr. Josh Morgan has asked for a video conversation with you." ”

Request, not request.

This shows the toughness of the Morgan family, and it also shows the attitude of the Morgan family.

However, the 30-year-old political officer is loyal and lively, of course, he knows that Mr. President's recent situation is not optimistic, so in the face of the Morgan family's giant, he must lower his posture and politeness, he used a word of request, but also the attitude of Josh Morgan is correctly expressed, at this time, perhaps a word that concerns the dignity of the president will make the president misjudge, and then affect the next situation, the administrative officer must be cautious and cautious.

President Ulysses was silent for a while, took a sip of his coffee that had cooled, nodded, stood up, and said, "Go to my private conference room." ”

Ten minutes later.

The White House, a private meeting room in the presidential quarters.

A large screen slowly lit up in the conference room.

In today's Skull and Bones Society, the face of Mr. Josh Morgan, the current patriarch of the Morgan family, one of the two giants, appeared on the screen, with a smile on his face and a light breeze.

President Ulysses sat quietly in the chair behind his desk, his expression serious, his eyes focused on the Morgan patriarch on the screen, and did not speak.

But the administrative officer, who was very close to the president, noticed that the muscles in the corners of the president's eyes were beating slightly.

"Good evening, Mr. President. ”

On the screen, the energetic Patriarch Josh Morgan said with a smile, his tone was low and calm, his eyes were sharp, and his every move was magnificent.

"Hello, Josh, oh, it looks like you're in good spirits. ”

The president was silent for a while, smiled slowly, and hid all the emotions in his heart, the man in the video, the patriarch of the Morgan family, the current president of the Skull and Bones Society, is definitely a figure worthy of anyone in the world to take seriously.

In the Skull and Bones Club, Morgan and Rockefeller, the two giants, have penetrated into almost every vein in the Americas, and their strength far exceeds that of other families, nominally, the two families are responsible for the daily operation and adjustment of the Skull and Bones Club, but in fact, in terms of human nature, even if it is two people, there will be a subordinate relationship, which can be obvious or not obvious.

Between the two, there will also be this kind of relationship similar to politics, and the two families are naturally inevitable.

In this generation of Skull and Bones, Josh Morgan is obviously the actual leader of the Skull and Bones Society, although the contemporary patriarch of Rockefeller is also extremely extraordinary, but both in terms of mind and wrist, compared with Josh Morgan, it is a little worse.

Fortunately, the contemporary patriarch of Rockefeller is not a stupid person, and he clearly found his position, since Morgan Josh is more clever than him, he directly acquiesces in the leadership of the Morgan family.

And the Morgan family is not stupid, naturally understands the truth that the two families can only be stronger if they are close together, so although they have leadership, they are also sincere cooperation, and they have never suppressed their close partners, and the two families have always been on the rise.

Trying to minimize internal friction and be consistent with the outside world has always been the internal purpose of the Skull and Bones Society, and it is one of the highest purposes.

The world is big, the interior is small, the world's resources are many, and the resources inside are few.

Everyone in the Skull and Bones Society understands this very well.

And this generation of Skull and Bones will not only face the old enemy elite club, but also a brazenly rising royal family, in this case, even if the Morgan family has the power of the leader, the pressure will be proportional to the power, and it really doesn't make much sense to fight for leadership.

And the Morgan family can lead the Skull and Bones Club for decades to withstand the two strong enemies of the outside world, and even within the Skull and Bones Club, they all think that this is the dedication of the Morgan family, in this case, no one will compete with him for power.

"Of course, Mr. President, I just got the very interesting news that there seems to be a skirmish at the Beneteau resort, and you see, the plan has already begun, shouldn't we be happy?".

Josh Morgan said with a smile.

"Indeed it should. ”

Ulysses nodded: "I just got the news that Cortlian has died, which is a real pity. ”

"Oh?"

The smile in Josh Morgan's eyes became more and more obvious: "If this is also regrettable, then Mr. President may be regretted many times tonight, the emperor is not a person to deal with, but this is a matter for the future, Mr. President, I don't know the position of Cortlian, do you have any candidates?"

Ulysses' body tightened.

Cortlian's current position is the captain of the Dawning Secret Service Team, and when he dies, this position will naturally be vacant.

And this time, among the thirteen X-ranks, the U.S. government, the royal family, and the Skull and Bones Society, there are some positions that naturally have to be handed over.

His appeal is for re-election.

The appeal of the thirteen X-class is to get the power of the American secret service.

The U.S. government's demand is stability.

Is the appeal of the Skull and Bones Club the Dawning Special Service Brigade?

"Is that what you're looking for?"

The president sat up straight and asked slowly.

"Not exactly. ”

Josh Morgan smiled mysteriously, looked at the president, and continued: "Dear Mr. President, it doesn't matter what my appeal is for the time being, but we should consider what His Majesty the Emperor is still on the front line, what is his appeal?"
