Four o'clock in the afternoon.

Ulysses appeared in his office in high spirits.

Dressed neatly in a black suit, red tie, and neatly combed hair, the whole person looked like a refreshed Ulysses could no longer see the slightest haggardness.

Vice President Joseph has embodied in the office.

This call, which has the potential to change the world pattern and even break world peace, no civilian personnel are authorized to intervene, only Vice President Joseph temporarily acts as a recorder.

"Let's get started. ”

Ulysses straightened his cuffs and sat down in his office chair in a calm tone.

Joseph nodded and casually turned on the large screen in his office.

The screen lit up and was quickly split into several windows.

Obviously, this was a multi-person conversation.

The call requests divided into several windows were answered one by one, and on the screen, different faces appeared, each with a serious expression.

What happened in the United States has now shaken the whole world, everyone understands that the United States and the Shenzhou Empire have torn their faces, as far as the current situation is concerned, war is inevitable, both sides have killed and injured a large number of people, there is no possibility of reconciliation, all the major countries in the world are waiting for the collision of the two superpowers, sooner or later, but everyone knows that this is something that will definitely happen.

The world situation is changing.

And many countries in Asia are restless.

There is no doubt that it is the allies of the United States and the countries and regions that the United States secretly supports.

In order to curb the rapid development of the Shenzhou Empire, the United States has spared no effort in investing in Asia in recent years, instigating other countries to call out to the Shenzhou Empire and secretly provide military support, for the United States and its allies in Asia, it can curb the development of the Shenzhou Empire without war, this is the best situation, and now the United States and the Shenzhou Empire have made up their minds to go to war, and their allies of the United States will undoubtedly be cannon fodder in the front.

In other words, they will be the countries that are directly at war with the Divine Empire.

It doesn't matter if you provoke or anything on weekdays, if you really start a war with the Shenzhou Empire, none of the ally countries present have the courage to do so.

So for today's video conference, except for Ulysses, the hearts of any country present are extremely complicated, they all know how chaotic the United States has become, in just a few days, the loss of human and material resources of the United States is as high as one trillion, and the real murderer is still waiting for the opportunity to move, the United States must do something, otherwise it will be sorry for their world hegemony at all.

America's allies in Asia are extremely dependent on the United States, and even to put it mildly, it is the relationship between godfather and godson, and now if Ulysses asks several countries to go to war, the leaders of these countries really don't know what to say.

Hit, don't dare.

If you don't fight, you don't dare.

Whether they fight or not, it is not a consequence that they can afford.

Once they use troops against the Shenzhou Empire, their country will suffer extremely heavy consequences, but rejecting the request of the United States? This will undoubtedly completely sever the relationship between them and the United States, and they will be hated by the United States, and the status of the United States will plummet, and in the international arena, they will also become a few lonely ghosts, and they will no longer be able to stop the footsteps of the Shenzhou Empire, and once the Shenzhou Empire rises, they may become the godsons of the Shenzhou Empire again, and they will never be able to raise their heads.

Embarrassed!

Such a situation, in addition to embarrassment or embarrassment.

Ulysses looked at the faces on the screen coldly, silently, he could clearly see the uneasiness under the serious faces of his allies, not only them, but even Ulysses himself was a complex emotion of irritability and remorse in his heart, war, really came to this point, it is really not what the United States wants to see.

This war, whether won or lost, was a big defeat for the United States, but for the Shenzhou Empire, the war became an opportunity to break the situation.

The Shenzhou Empire, which has been dormant for decades and has been advocating making a lot of money in a muffled voice, now wants people to ask for money and money, has a strong military force, and has strong national strength, their patience seems to have reached the limit, and they no longer want to be restrained, so they plan to break the situation in the most brutal and rude way.

If you lose, it's a big deal to continue to hibernate, it's nothing more than a heavy loss.

Won and soared.

Therefore, they are willing and able to bear the consequences and losses of war.

The United States can afford it, but the problem is that there is no need or need to bear such consequences and losses.

It was the Shenzhou Empire that drove the United States to the point where war was inevitable.

The annoyance in Ulysses' eyes flashed, he lit a cigar, took a big puff, cleared his throat, and said, "Good morning, everyone." ”

The afternoon time in the United States is morning for the vast majority of countries in Asia.

There was a greeting on the screen, a very clear voice, but because there were too many people talking, it seemed extremely mixed.

The Emperor and Prime Minister of Japan, the President of South Korea, the President of India, the President of the National Assembly of Vietnam, the President of the Philippines, the President of Israel, the President of Singapore, the President of Indonesia, the Supreme Leader of Treasure Island

There are those who have always been supported by the United States, and there are those who have only received support from the United States in recent years.

The lineup is luxurious.

Ulysses looked at them carefully, silently reciting their identities one by one, hoping to feel the power they brought from their identities, and also hoping to increase his confidence.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I don't think I need to say more. As you should know, the United States has been in trouble recently, and in the past few days, the United States has suffered very heavy losses, although it has not shaken the foundation of the United States, but it has put us in a very passive situation, and as an ally of the United States, I need your help. ”

Ulysses said slowly, his tone calm and indifferent: "The United States and the Shenzhou Empire have declared war on each other, and both countries are currently in a state of first-level war readiness, as an ally, I need your actions to hit the Shenzhou Empire hard." ”

Simple, straightforward, and straight to the point.

The heads of state are all complicated in their hearts, this is the American president they are familiar with, the time to cater to them is just a statement, but the status of the two sides has never changed.

As allies of the United States, they seem to have become accustomed to American hegemony.

"President Ulysses, you must be cautious, although the Shenzhou Empire is very excessive, but once a war breaks out, the implications are too great. ”

After a brief silence, the somewhat aged Emperor of Japan spoke.

"And it is quite impressive to say that there is a significant gap between our national strength and the Shenzhou Empire, once the war breaks out, I am not optimistic about the outcome of the war. ”

The South Korean president, who has always been at odds with Japan, said calmly.

"Maybe there will be another solution? The war is likely to cause popular opposition, and I think it should be considered. ”

The Philippine president's tone was a little hesitant.

"Once the war is lost, the rise of the Shenzhou Empire will become unstoppable, President Ulysses, does the United States really have the courage to fight to the death with the Shenzhou Empire?"

The ridicule on the corner of the Vietnamese president's mouth flashed away, among the many allies of the United States in Asia, the relationship between Vietnam and the United States is the most delicate, and the impression brought by a Vietnam War still the nerves of the two countries from time to time, if it were not for the great threat of the Shenzhou Empire, Vietnam would definitely not get any substantial support from the United States.

"We need faith, confidence that we can win this war. ”

The Indian president said lightly, his eyes sharp and hot.

They may have been accustomed to giving orders from the United States and getting used to the status of being the younger brother, but this time the war is too big, this is mainly the conflict between the United States and the Shenzhou Empire, but now they are being cannon fodder to wage war, which is completely betting on the fate of the country to work for the United States, and now the participants are all heads of state, and it is strange that they can act willingly, who will not have their own thoughts?

In their hearts, it is in their best interests for the United States and the Divine Empire to lose both, and if they take a step back, even if a war really breaks out, they must see the hope of absolute victory, and the expected benefits before they can act.

"Mr. President, you know that Israel and the Shenzhou Empire are too far away, if the war breaks out, Israel's army needs to pass through Kuwait, Iran, Afghanistan, and Pakistan to enter the Shenzhou Empire, and once the war breaks out, Pakistan will definitely fight with us, and it will be difficult for Israel's army to reach the territory of the Shenzhou Empire. ”

The Israeli president was silent for a while, then suddenly shrugged his shoulders and smiled: "This war, I'm sorry, I can't do anything about it." If Mr. President is to get Israel involved, perhaps we can provide you with some military equipment. ”

Ulysses' eyes froze.

This is the first ally country to explicitly reject the United States, although the words are very tactful, but refusal is refusal, as for the support of other military equipment, it is just a retreat left by the other side.

Ulysses's eyes flashed on the face of the Israeli president, the other party's refusal was within his expectations, and the geographical problem does exist, it is not realistic to let the Israeli army reach the Shenzhou Empire, at least Pakistan will definitely work hard, in Asia, Pakistan is the most reliable ally of the Shenzhou Empire, and supporting the Shenzhou Empire is completely unconditional, whether it is from their own interests or from an international standpoint, once the war breaks out, Pakistan must do its best to support the Shenzhou Empire.

Moreover, Pakistan's problem is not as simple as blocking Israel's way to advance, his most important role is to contain India, the border between the two countries, if India invests too much in the war with the Shenzhou Empire, Pakistan will stab India at any time.

A similar problem is also in South Korea.

Although North Korea, which is closely linked to South Korea, has a delicate relationship with the Shenzhou Empire in recent years and seems to be drifting away, when war breaks out, North Korea's position is unlikely to be biased in favor of them, or even neutral.

Ulysses smoked his cigar silently, his eyes shining thoughtfully.

"Relations between us and the mainland have eased a lot in recent years, and the cooperation between the two sides is quite pleasant. ”

In the silence, the supreme leader of the treasure island said half a sentence in a somewhat dry tone, he did not continue, but the appearance of wanting to speak and stopping had already expressed his inner thoughts.

"Doesn't Treasure Island want to be independent?"

Ulysses suddenly laughed and said: "Treasure Island independence, you are the founding head of the country, what a moving prospect?

He turned his eyes to the Indian president and continued: "President Shahrukh, don't you want to completely resolve the territorial dispute between India and the Shenzhou Empire? After this war, maybe India will get more than just a small piece of disputed area, you will even get more than one million square kilometers of land in the entire Tibetan area, it's very exciting to think about, isn't it?"

"Hmm, Your Majesty the Emperor, the historical feud between Japan and the Shenzhou Empire has lasted for a long time, do you think that Japan and the Shenzhou Empire will be at peace forever? Oh, I forgot to say, in two years, the Shenzhou Empire will be the Emperor's Shenzhou Empire, heh, it seems that the headquarters of the Imperial Family is very close to Hokkaido? Only separated by a Soya Strait, I wonder if you can see the scenery of Hokkaido from the southernmost point of the Imperial Headquarters? Once the Shenzhou Empire rises, don't His Majesty the Emperor and His Majesty the Prime Minister need to think about the future fate of Japan? The issue of fishing islands seems like a good excuse, doesn't it?"

"Oh, and President Claudi, President Ruan, the issue of Scarborough Shoal and Taiping Island may be solved together this time, the scenery of the Nansha Islands and the South China Sea Province is good, you two, what do you think?"

"And South Korea, it seems that the dispute between South Korea and the Shenzhou Empire in Changbai Mountain has not stopped, right? Wouldn't it be better if Changbai Mountain was enlarged to the entire Jiangbei Province?"

Ulysses' unhurried words seemed to have a magical effect, making the heads of state of the various allied countries breathe a little heavier.

"Look, guys, we have too many problems with the Divine Empire, and we need to work together now to get back what you want, don't we?"

Ulysses laughed.

"You have to be able to win. ”

Emperor Mingwu of Japan said in a calm tone, among the people present, only he can say this, the emperor, as the supreme leader and symbol of Japan, actually does not have real power, this kind of detached person, can unscrupulously say something that other heads of state cannot say.

"We have to win, and it is a big win to get everything that Mr. President said, and it's a very difficult thing to do, it's too risky, and I don't think anybody in this room will deny that. ”

Everyone fell silent.

The old emperor paused and did not continue, what he wanted to say was that even if victory could be achieved, what the United States promised them now would not necessarily work.

Ulysses has just said too much about what countries can get after winning the war, but what the United States can get, he didn't say.

"Risks and opportunities go hand in hand. ”

Ulysses said lightly: "Everyone, the war between the United States and the Shenzhou Empire is inevitable, I need your strength, and I can also give you some of what you want, and this is a war for the United States, the US military will naturally not be absent, the Pacific Fleet will become the main force in this war, I will also send three aircraft carriers directly to Asia, at the same time, the United States will also give you more military and economic assistance, victory belongs to us, I firmly believe this." ”

No one spoke.

After a while, the Vietnamese president smiled and said softly: "President Ulysses, about the war, I think I need to think about it. ”

Immediately echoed and joined in.

Ulysses smiled and said calmly, "Of course, I'll wait for your good news, so let's adjourn." ”

In the office, the small windows on the big screen gradually dimmed.

Ulysses sat in his office chair, looking at the screen, gulping on his cigar.

Smoky.

"It didn't look good. ”

Joseph closed the notebook in front of him, turned off the big screen, and sighed.

"Expected. ”

Ulysses smiled: "Allies are not their own people after all. ”

"What are you going to do next?"

Joseph stood up and asked softly.

"Communicate with them individually. ”

Ulysses calmly said, "It's time to throw them a few bones." ”

It was interrupted for two days-

It won't break anymore
