Chapter 448: Recall
Without prior announcement or respectful invitation, Ulysses received only a bland notice ten minutes before the meeting began. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
It was as if he were not the president of the United States at all, but a dispensable figure in the top echelons of the United States, as if...
It's like the bigwigs have already scheduled a meeting in advance, and suddenly find that there seems to be one person missing before the meeting ends, and then send someone to call him over.
The bigwigs do it casually.
But for Ulysses, the party who is still sitting in the presidential seat, it is full of embarrassment.
When Darbinite's secretary found Ulysses, the president, who is now arguably the worst president in U.S. history, was having lunch with Vice President Joseph in an apartment near the Philadelphia Police Department.
There are no villa cars, and there are even few bodyguards near the apartment.
This is Ulysses' temporary residence, and the pomp and circumstance are all about enjoyment, and obviously no one is in the mood at this time.
"They won't let you go easily this time. ”
At the dining table, Vice President Joseph held a knife and fork, skillfully cut the steak on the plate, and said in a calm tone.
"Of course, such a good opportunity, not to mention the competitors who are staring at my position, even if it is an ordinary class, they all know that attacking me in exchange for support from the people, we should all be used to it, right?"
Ulysses said without raising his head, the president, who had been in a panic in St. Mary's Hospital, regained his former calm and composure, he gently waved the knife and fork in his hand, and smiled calmly and confidently: "Old friend, do you dare to gamble?" They can do nothing but attack me senselessly, they can insult me, they can attack me, they can say that I am incompetent and stupid, they can accuse me of the cruelty when I ordered the missile bombardment of the Valiant Infantry Division, but no matter what, I will still be the president of the United States, and no one can change this, and no one dares to change this. ”
He carefully and attentively cut the steak on the plate into small pieces, smiling contemptuously and disdainfully: "Who dares to take over the current situation? Dabinite dare? Does Hovington dare? If they dare, with their current approval rating, they could easily sit in the position of president, but they don't dare, because they know very well that even if they succeed in sitting in my position now, as the war continues, they will sooner or later become the second me." ”
"Now for the United States, the masters of the imperial family are completely unsolvable problems, they are too destructive, before the emperor, Lin Xuanyuan, Wang Fuyu and they die, or before the victory of the war, they don't dare to come to the position of this president at all, and they can't sit still, so at least now, our position is very safe. ”
"Is it a completely unsolvable problem?"
Joseph suddenly spoke: "Marshal Ellahn is the best way to solve this problem. ”
"He will stand with us, and he can only stand with us, although we have a lot of contradictions, but if you give up on me, they will not achieve their goals in a short time. ”
Ulysses paused, and said in a flat tone.
"What exactly is the purpose of Atlas?"
Ulysses subconsciously raised his head and glanced at Joseph, the hesitation in his eyes flashed, and then he became calm as water again.
"Nothing. At least their purpose is harmless to the United States. ”
Ulysses said.
Joseph nodded, lowered his head and picked up the knife and fork again, the complexity and disappointment in his eyes flashed.
The door to the apartment was pushed open without warning.
The door panel slammed against the wall with a loud bang.
A young man in his thirties with gold-rimmed glasses stepped into the apartment, walked directly into the dining room, and said with a soft smile: "Good afternoon, Mr. President, oh, His Excellency the Vice President is also here, what a coincidence." ”
Arrogant and rude, with a hint of banter.
They rushed in so blatantly that even the bodyguards at the door who were responsible for keeping Ulysses safe did not raise a warning.
The corners of Ulysses' mouth twitched, the sneer on his face flashed, and he said lightly, "Is there something wrong?" ”
Erwin Mondo.
Dabinit's secretary, who is also the number one thinker next to the senior councilor, is simply a poisonous snake, with the venom of seeing blood and sealing his throat, killing people without seeing blood.
Erwin had been with Dabinite for almost seven or eight years.
Seven or eight years ago, Dabinite was just an ordinary congressman in the United States, soliciting funds for his party, expressing opinions according to the needs of his supporters, and shouting for the leader of his party.
At that time, as vice president, Ulysses was at his most energetic, sitting in the position of governor of Maryland, directly defeating the leader of Dabinit's party in the presidential election by a large margin and being elected president of the United States.
Today, seven or eight years later, ordinary congressmen who were not on the table at the time have nearly half of the voice in the two houses of the United States, and they also have a profound influence on the judiciary, and their influence in several states in the United States has also reached its peak, becoming the powerful figure who poses the greatest threat to Ulysses.
And Erwin Mondo can be said to have contributed to all this.
It is no exaggeration to say that without Erwin, there would be no Dabinite today, but without Dabinite, Erwin's life would be very exciting.
So in the upper echelons of the United States, almost no one dares to underestimate the energy of Erwin, who is now only Dabinit's secretary, but who knows if he will appear on the list of presidential candidates in a few years?
This is a top think tank with infinite possibilities for the future!
"Yes, Mr. President, I think you have received the news that His Excellency Dabinite and Governor Hovington had arrived in Philadelphia half an hour earlier. ”
Erwin smiled politely, an impeccable smile on his face, but there was a kind of coldness that made people's hearts chill.
"Of course, I received the news, and I was very relieved that Dabinite and Hovington were able to arrive in Philadelphia so quickly, and they really had the United States in their hearts, and their approach was worthy of where they are now. ”
Ulysses said in a cold tone.
"Congressman Dabinit's patriotism is unquestionable. ”
Erwin said with a serious and sincere tone.
Ulysses smiled and didn't speak, people of their status are patriotic or for their own power, the only thing that is certain is that they will definitely not do anything sorry for this country, at least in their hearts they will not do anything sorry for the United States, Ulysses didn't want to listen to this nonsense, waved his hand, and went straight to the point: "Say, Erwin, is there something wrong? I don't think you came here to discuss with me whether Dabinite is patriotic or not." ”
"That's true. ”
Erwin continued to laugh, but his smile was full of meaning: "Councilor Dabinite is very angry about the destruction of Washington and Ton, after getting the news of the destruction of the capital, Mr. Congressman almost fainted, he came to Philadelphia for the first time, and now he has decided to jointly convene a high-level meeting of the United States with Mr. Hovinton, President, as the President of the United States, you are qualified to participate in this meeting, so I invite you to participate." ”
As he said this, he raised his wrist and looked at his watch, and the meanness in his tone became more and more obvious: "You still have twenty minutes, and if you are late, then you can only be regarded as giving up your qualification to participate." ”
Twenty minutes.
The apartment is not far from the Philadelphia Police Department, but it takes at least fifteen minutes to get there, and from that point of view, time is already very tight.
"Convening a high-level meeting?!"
The furious flames in Ulysses' eyes flashed, his breathing became extremely heavy, and he gasped a few times before he took a deep breath, stuffed the last steak on the plate into his mouth, and asked with a smile: "You said that Dabinite held a high-level meeting in the United States?!"
The medium-rare steak was still bloodshot, and Ulysses bit hard, making his whole expression look extremely hideous.
"It was Darbinite Hospital and Governor Hovington who jointly convened this meeting. ”
Erwin subconsciously took a step back, his expression tinged with a hint of vigilance.
Ulysses in this state made him feel a hint of danger, such a madman, if not necessary, Erwin did not intend to provoke too much.
"What qualifications do they have to convene this meeting? Hmm? High-level meetings, heh, they can only be considered members of the top at best, who gave them the authority to hold such meetings? Who is it!?"
Ulysses' smile grew brighter and brighter, but the fierceness in his eyes grew heavier.
"Special circumstances deserve special treatment. ”
Erwin narrowed his eyes and said in a rapid tone: "Normally, the high-level meeting should be held at the White House or the Capitol, but in fact, we are holding this meeting at the police department in Philadelphia. Mr. President, you should understand that this is a war, and in a war, as long as it is good for the United States, we don't have to mind whether they are in line with the rules or not. ”
"But I'm the president of the United States!!"
Ulysses jumped up like a lion that had been raging and roared loudly: "They want to hold a high-level meeting, and they haven't even said hello to me before, and only now have you come to tell me that I am qualified to participate?
"I understand your anger. ”
Erwin said lightly: "But now the meeting is about to begin." ”
"I refuse to participate!"
Ulysses sneered, with a look of arrogance: "I am the president of the United States, you hold a high-level meeting, I want to see who will go to this ridiculous meeting in the absence of the president!"
"Actually, this meeting is very serious, and even from another point of view, the meeting has already begun, at least the people who should have arrived have already appeared in the office, President, are you sure of your choice? If you are sure, I can say hello to the conference room now, the meeting will start immediately, and as for you, you can continue your lunch. ”
Erwin chuckled, sniffled, and said with an intoxicated expression: "Medium-rare steak, this taste is really strong." ”
Ulysses's face turned pale, he gritted his teeth and suppressed the anger in his heart, and roared, "You said the meeting would start without me?!"
He paused and continued, "Are you sure!?"
"Of course. ”
Erwin said with a smile on his face, "Now that everyone has arrived, including Marshal Ellain, of course the meeting has to begin." ”
Al Lahn!
Ulysses' body trembled slightly, and he said in a hoarse tone, "What is the main content of this meeting?"
"The three aspects are Washington and Ton's reconstruction work and how to recover the losses of the United States, and second, how to win the war and kill all the royal masters. Third, there are quite a few high-level leaders who believe that you are no longer fit to be the president of the United States, so they will seriously discuss whether to remove you from the presidency at this meeting, and of course, if you attend the meeting, you can also express your opinion. ”
Erwin said with a smile.
Oust the president!
At this delicate moment, they dared to remove the President of the United States!
Ulysses' face turned pale in an instant.
