Chapter 430: In-depth Cooperation

"Lin Xuanyuan disappeared in Philadelphia. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Joseph came to Ulysses's office again, looked at Mr. President, who was sitting in the office chair with a gloomy expression, and said in a somewhat gloomy tone.

Sullen...

It seems that since the terrorist attack, this has become the only expression on Ulysses's face.

And before that, they would never have imagined that just one person could bring such a big loss to the entire United States.

One person, with a group of shrimp soldiers and crab generals, against a country!

And against a superpower.

Before that, Joseph would have thought it was a joke if he heard about it.

But now he couldn't laugh at all.

The San Francisco Siege, the Los Angeles Bombing, the New York Massacre, and now the Philadelphia Massacre...

In just a few days, the loss of the United States has reached an unimaginable level, and the pressure on Ulysses has never been greater, the pressure comes from the media, the people, and Congress, and even the military and political terms, and the people's calls for impeachment of the president are getting higher and higher, Joseph is completely sure that if the current situation is too delicate, and some strong contenders for the president do not want to face the Shenzhou Empire, so they choose to let Ulysses take the blame, then it is definitely not Ulysses who is sitting in the president's office now.

And these pressures and changes, without exaggeration, are all brought about by the royal family.

In other words, it was brought by the two princes of the royal family.

Two earth-shattering supremes.

Special services, special services, all countries in the world have their own special service systems, and the original intention of establishing the special service system is completely unanimous among all countries, that is, to gather a small group of people with the most effective combat effectiveness in the country and use them at critical moments to cause huge destructive power far beyond their numbers.

To put it simply, it is to use a small number of people to exert the greatest destructive power.

And the only one who really uses this to the extreme is the royal family.

A Lin Xuanyuan, with a hundred elites, in a few days, exerted a destructive power that surpassed his own number by tens of thousands of times.

In just a few days, the world has truly seen the horror of the world-shaking supreme, and it has also made all countries realize the value of the special service system.

Joseph had already begun to think about a problem.

Or rather, after the Philadelphia bloodbath, he finally made up his mind.

That's the deal from Atlas.

As Ulysses's friend and right-hand man for many years, Joseph and Ulysses have a close friendship and are deeply trusted by Mr. President.

Five-star general!

These are the trading conditions of Atlas.

The rank of five-star general is a unique military rank in the United States, formally established in the middle of the last century, approved by Congress, equivalent to the rank of marshal in other Western countries, under normal circumstances, the basic condition for promotion of five-star general is that he must have served as the commander of the Allied theater of operations, and the winners of this honor over the years are related to World War II, Marshall, who served as the commander of the European theater, MacArthur, the commander of the Pacific theater, Bradley, etc...

If Atlas wants to get this five-star general rank, first of all, this basic condition is not met, and if Ulysses wants to grant Atlas the rank of five-star general to the patriarch, opponents may use this as the best excuse to object.

However, so many years have passed since World War II, and if you insist on bringing up the patriarch of Atlas, it is not impossible.

The Congress made it clear that the rank of five-star general was conferred only in wartime and that it would not be discharged for life.

Wartime granted.

Combined with the situation facing the United States today, the entire United States probably does not think that this is an era of peace, and the United States has this condition.

The only thing that worries is how the next series of things will develop after the deal with Atlas is reached.

Since the death of the last five-star general in the 80s of the last century, there has not been a single five-star general among the American generals.

Marshal of the United States.

This position, which can be said to be the supreme leader of the military, directly controls military power.

This kind of sensitive matter, whether it is successful or not, will have a huge impact on the United States, and if it can be successful, it can even directly change the power structure of the United States.

The Atlas deal seems to have been calculated that the United States does not have many options now, so the ambitious proposal of this deal is almost tantamount to blackmail.

Judging from the current situation, it seems that the United States has become less and less room for maneuver.

A Lin Xuanyuan has already tossed the United States into a mess, and the disadvantage of not having a super master in the United States is obviously and almost nakedly exposed, at this time, the United States really needs Atlas's master to help stabilize the situation.

And...

Behind Lin Xuanyuan, there is also an emperor who is recognized as invincible in the world!

What if the United States barely suppressed Lin Xuanyuan?

Once the emperor goes to the United States, everything will only turn out worse.

Thinking of that scene, Joseph subconsciously trembled.

He took a deep breath and looked up, only to meet Ulysses' eyes.

Ulysses' eyes were already narrowed, and there was a thoughtful glint in his eyes.

"I'm sorry. ”

Joseph smiled, a little apologetic, but fortunately the relationship between the two kept Ulysses from lashing out at his occasional wandering.

Ulysses shook his head and said lightly, "When was the last time you found Lin Xuanyuan?"

He had asked this just now, but Joseph was stunned and didn't hear it, Ulysses had already noticed that it was not the first time that Joseph occasionally wandered, and recently, his old friend's spirit was getting more and more trance-like, Ulysses saw it, but he couldn't say anything, the situation was getting more and more chaotic, and everyone's hearts were a little messy.

"For the last time..."

Joseph groaned and said with a wry smile: "Where is the last time? If there is really a word, it should be the time for Cato to fight Lin Xuanyuan, and since then, whether it is the city hall bloody case or the Demon Sword Armored Division explosion case, the people who have seen Lin Xuanyuan have died." ”

The corners of Ulysses' mouth twitched, but he didn't speak.

The shock brought by this news is not even smaller than the Philadelphia murder that Lin Xuanyuan personally created today.

Comes and goes without a trace.

This kind of superman-like character is a headache for anyone to face.

"Where's Cato?"

Ulysses asked.

"Now that he should be on his way back, Cato seems to be in a very bad mood. ”

Joseph said softly.

Ulysses snorted coldly, not only Cato, but also his mood as a president was also very bad, the magic sword armor division exploded, and Davis was killed in battle, which was equivalent to making him lose his voice among the military hawks, and also made his situation more and more passive.

"Cato... Cato..."

Ulysses narrowed his eyes and muttered to himself.

"Mr. President, perhaps we should really seriously consider the conditions of Atlas. ”

Joseph tentatively said that Atlas's conditions were naturally not easy to agree, but now they had no choice.

The smell of gunpowder between the Shenzhou Empire is getting stronger and stronger, and no one can guarantee when the two countries will go to war, and even the next second, the next minute, there will be a war, in this case, stabilizing their own back garden is the most important thing.

If the war with the Shenzhou Empire hadn't started yet, Lin Xuanyuan would have tossed the entire United States into a mess, which would undoubtedly affect the morale of the army, and it could even be said that he was defeated before the battle.

New York, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, San Francisco...

The four major cities in the United States are now miserable and miserable, and if Lin Xuanyuan is not stopped, the mentality and belief of the entire US military will probably completely collapse with Lin Xuanyuan's massacre all the way.

"Five-star general..."

Ulysses said lightly: "Do you think the pressure that Lin Xuanyuan is currently bringing to them will make them recognize a five-star general?"

They...

Joseph, of course, knew who they were referring to.

Referring to the old diehards in Congress, as well as figures from other factions in the United States.

A five-star general, a marshal of the United States, is a figure who can influence the overall situation, and it affects the most sensitive military power.

Although Lin Xuanyuan is now wreaking havoc in the United States, he has not completely broken the confidence of those people after all, and it will be extremely difficult for Ulysses to pass this appointment.

"But we have to prepare for it, don't we? Some things have to be done step by step. ”

Joseph said that this sentence has basically made his inclination very obvious.

In this case, he supported the deal with Atlas and Ulysses to promote Atlas's patriarch to a five-star general in the U.S. military.

"We don't have much time right now. ”

Ulysses took a deep breath and laughed at himself: "Step by step, it's too late." ”

"Is there no way?"

Joseph frowned and said, "After all, the emperor hasn't made a move yet, if..."

He didn't continue, but the meaning was already very clear, Lin Xuanyuan was almost unstoppable in the United States now, once they refused to cooperate with Atlas, then if the emperor went to the United States, that kind of scene would not be able to stop it at all!

"There's always a way. ”

Without waiting for Ulysses to speak, Joseph said to himself: "And I personally think that we should deepen our cooperation with Atlas, agree to their request, and cooperate more deeply in the name of a private person." ”

He spoke slowly, and when he spoke, his eyes were fixed on Ulysses, and there was something meaningful.

Ulysses's expression changed slightly, and he instantly understood the meaning of Joseph's words, and said quietly: "What do you mean?"

Literally. ”

Joseph smiled, lowered his eyelids, and said lightly: "The United States cannot live without you, whether it is before or after the war." ”

Ulysses didn't speak.

He was silent for a long time before he looked out the window and muttered, "It seems that it is time to talk to the patriarch." ”
