Chapter 671: Every Other Autumn
As mentioned above, Phoebe has quite a lot of requirements for information, in addition to being accurate and requiring continuity, so she also attaches great importance to some confidential information. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
However, although her current level of secrecy is enough to see a lot of confidential information, these materials are still inaccessible, to be precise, just like Phoebe behaved when she told the truth, after the U.S. secrecy level exceeds level 19, all information will only be open to you if you are aware of it, otherwise, it is no different from continuing to keep it secret from you.
And the most troublesome thing is that when it is realized that there is relevant confidential information, when the confidentiality special is not equal, there is still a provision that you need to be 3 levels higher before you can read it, which is why the confidentiality level of confidential documents is only up to 27, but it is rumored that the confidentiality level can only know everything when it reaches 30 - this is a joke in itself, because the confidentiality level of people can only reach 27 levels at the highest.
Now Phoebe, although six levels above the president's rank, still has a large information gap, which makes her often think about how to completely swallow the Classified Information Bureau, which is part of the Congressional Archives Committee.
A few days ago, after talking to Lee so-man, who came to say that she was going to have a banquet for Girls' Generation, Phoebe left South Korea, nominally to do the final work for the post-production of the new movie, and in the name of covering up, she dropped out of MIT, and what was covered up was naturally that the company was trying to prevent someone from taking advantage of the reports of her northern neighbors on her and Lee Yun-hin, and doing something unfavorable to Girls' Generation.
Of course, Phoebe was able to reach the Congressional Archives to review the classified information that Barbara had conveyed to Langley that she wanted to see.
What Phoebe wanted to see was a record of the apparent exchange of information between the Chinese and American intelligence communities during the Geneva Conference, and when Barbara told Langley, she made it clear what Phoebe wanted to see, and Langley also gave Phoebe something to see, that is, confidential information about the Anglo-French merger.
As we all know, in January 2007, the United Kingdom lifted the ban on a number of classified documents, including records related to the secret contacts between France and Britain in 1956 to seek membership in the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth.
Phoebe naturally wouldn't refuse to ask for more information, but she also knew that Langley's move might have a purpose.
And before reading this information, Phoebe had her own judgment, she believed that even if Britain agreed at that time, the United States would actively stir up this matter, because from a certain point of view, the European Community established the following year, I am afraid that the United States in order to avoid the British who did not react at the beginning, suddenly figured out that it was going to merge with France, which was absolutely a nightmare for the United States to control the European continent, so it quickly created a European Community structure for France.
Of course, in Phoebe's view, the EU is all on the list of enemies, and what about the European Community, so she has no strong demand for information in this regard at most - her current focus is to help Mila settle in China, let Mila learn the habits of Chinese thinking in a short time, and prepare for the next step - not only the next step of girlhood, but also for Titan's next plan.
However, the facts obviously gave Phoebe a resounding slap in the face, and the information provided by Langley to Phoebe at that event made Phoebe think of only one thing: she was taking it for granted.
According to Langley's records, before the advent of this framework of the European Community, China ...... It was also after that, for a long time, Britain was ruthlessly hacked when it encountered China, and sometimes Britain's approach even made the American intelligence community have to worry about whether China and the Soviet Union would get back together because of the British hatred of China......
Anyway, Phoebe felt that this information was really worthwhile, and even she understood what Langley meant, obviously, the American intelligence community has not been very at ease with the United Kingdom, because Britain has been very experienced in the continental balance policy, and also knows very well when there is a place to take advantage, this time Phoebe will inherit the Welsh noble title, which can be regarded as creating an opportunity for the United States to enter the core power circle of the United Kingdom, so although the American intelligence community and the diplomatic community have not paid much attention to her affairs on the surface, they are actually waiting for the dust to settle before celebrating, lest the cautious British mess up this matterγ
In other words, Langley has always treated Phoebe as her own, which makes Phoebe feel very good on the one hand, and on the other hand, it also makes Phoebe feel a lot of pressure - in her opinion, Langley is not her own person, just a collaborator.
When Phoebe leaves the archives, she sees Barbara stretching against the car, and when she approaches, she says, "What's the matter?
Barbara smiled and shook her head, "No, it's the feeling, um, it's powerful, you know? When I was in Langley, I didn't even think I'd be here." β
Phoebe stretched out her hand to open the co-pilot's door and said, "I just let you in, why didn't you go in?"
Barbara shook her head while opening the car door: "Okay dear, I know that you have a good memory, and your ability to read and filter information is higher than mine, even better than ten, and my current job is mainly to be your assistant, listen to your arrangement, you say, I go to see those, isn't it another time to delay and waste my own brain?"
After hearing Barbara's words, Phoebe was stunned and said, "Alas, how did you figure this out?"
Barbara started the car, shrugged her shoulders, and smiled, "Ebrun helped me figure it out." β
"Ah, that'......" Phoebe replied with some noncommittality, and Barbara moved the car.
The car moved for a while, and Barbara glanced sideways at Phoebe and said, "Don't you want to ask something?"
Phoebe shook her head and said, "You can probably guess without asking, the relationship between you and Ebron is obviously developing very quickly, and I can even think that you have been trying to kill people for nearly a month." β
Barbara gave Phoebe a blank look, then smiled again: "It's a bit unfortunate that I didn't make it." β
Phoebe asked, "Why do you seem to be a little happy?"
Barbara smiled: "Of course, I want to wait for you to inherit the title, and then give me a family knighthood, and then get married, if it is really fatal, my wedding is not so prominent, and everyone's eyes must be on Ebron." β
After hearing this, Phoebe immediately nodded and said, "Okay, don't worry, the noble council has accepted my request for the classical ceremony of the Welsh Swordsmen's Order, and the time has been set, and it will be held this autumn." β
"How many months?"
"This will be arranged according to the timetable of the British royal family, so it is not easy to say at this time, but autumn should be a certainty, hmph, the classical etiquette of the Welsh Swordsmen is open-air, I don't believe they will choose a cold day for Elizabeth to stand in the autumn wind. β
"Hey, how do you say she's a queen too, don't say that. Barbara gave Phoebe a strange look.
Phoebe shrugged her shoulders and said, "Well, Her Royal Highness's body can't stick to a full classical canonization ceremony, especially in the open air. β
Barbara gave Phoebe a strange look at this time and said, "You seem to be very dissatisfied with her?"
Phoebe thought about the confidential information she had just seen, nodded and said, "To be honest, do you think I rarely do this?"
Barbara nodded.
Phoebe said what Langlido had just seen to her, and then said, "See? So I'm obviously going to be prepared to show an attitude that they will approve of, and of course I'm not going to be so stupid in front of the British." β
Barbara nodded this time and said, "Well, I'll just say that you didn't look like you at all...... Okay, I see, I'll report back to Langley, well, let's just say you're stressed. β
"Well, that's right, it's stressful. Phoebe smiled and nodded.
Barbara said again at this time: "By the way, the Welsh side seems to want you to go, when will you go?"
"Well, before the canonization ceremony, according to classical etiquette, I need to take a ride around the fiefdom and then ride to London, to be honest, I know you all think I'm asking for help, but I can't help it, the reputation of the Lorek family in Wales is not very good, and the reputation of the regicide Lorek has followed this family for too long, and I have to make some changes. β
"It's still a double quotation mark murderer, it's already good not to say that your family is a traitor, at least thanks to the English royal family for this. Barbara laughed.
Phoebe could only shrug her shoulders helplessly.
Barbara smiled again, "All right, my dear wise and brave Viscount the Kingkiller, Her Royal Highness Miss Raven, where will you go in a moment?"
"Hmm...... The airport, there's not much to do in Washington anyway, I don't want to socialize, that's your business. Phoebe said.
Barbara glanced at Phoebe with a smile and said, "......"
Well, that's right, Barbara didn't say anything, she felt that Phoebe seemed to be a little different from before, to be precise, as if she had such a thing as "Miss Temper".
Phoebe glanced at Barbara and said, "I've been learning to joke lately......"
"Hah~" Barbara smiled knowingly, and then said, "Seriously Phoebe, this is not for you. Of course, I also agree with what you said, you are really not suitable for entertaining others, it should be others entertaining you, you just need to maintain the way you were before. β
"Really?"
"Of course, don't forget that with the huge and growing Titan behind you, and the allies united by interests, the Queen of England can be bowed by you in a way...... To be honest, we were all a little unwilling. Barbara glanced at Phoebe.
Phoebe tilted her head to look at Barbara for a moment, then nodded, "Don't be like a child." β
Barbara glanced at Phoebe again with a smile: "Ho...... That is why you will evaluate it like this, you have to know that everyone is actually just more enthusiastic about the present and future of Titan, and through the construction of your fiefdom in Wales in the past few months, everyone has also understood that the British and the old lady Lorek are actually not happy, so they feel a little unwilling. β
Phoebe nodded and said, "Well, that's why I said, don't be like a child." When Titan was established, I said that this world has its own operating rules, and only by following this rule to the end can we really go our own way, before that, there is no grievance or grievance, in fact, it should not be us who really feel wronged, you know, the classical canonization of the Welsh noble swordsman regiment is the legal etiquette stipulated by the king of England back then, if I make it, the British royal family can't do what they did back then, hehe......"
Barbara also smiled and nodded: "Well, well, you are right, not only can we see the jokes of the British, it is estimated that Wales and the local councils will not dare to easily infringe on your interests in the future - after the financial crisis, they are not doing well, and your investment has made the Welsh people very hot." β
Phoebe said "um", nodded, and said: "I know, but as I said, there are rules for the operation of this world, according to the rules, they have been under me from the beginning, so they can only please me, otherwise they will not get anything, of course, according to the rules, what should be given to them will still be given, but no more, don't think about it, I hope the people in the Welsh Parliament can think it out for themselves." β
"I've seen enough, in a way the Welsh are more brainless than the English. Barbara shook her head slightly.
Phoebe shrugged and said: "When the time comes, let the banking community liquidate the repayment ability of some people in the council in advance, anyway, the new president's bailout strategy is obviously biased towards the financial industry, but the financial industry must also set an example, such as readjusting the value of asset appraisal or something, if you want to rectify Wales, we now have a lot of means." β
Barbara said sadly: "I hope that no one will go bankrupt because of this, and their families will be pitiful." β
"It doesn't matter, we'll sponsor social security then. Phoebe smiled.
Barbara pursed her lips and looked at Phoebe again, and smiled, "You're so bad." β
"It's just the worst-case scenario, and if they don't target me, I don't target anyone else. Phoebe shrugged.
Barbara smiled again, slowed down at the approaching iron gate, the gate was unattended, but it was obvious that someone was operating through the surveillance, and when the gate opened, Barbara turned to Phoebe and said, "By the way, your Russian pronunciation is still quite standard, help me correct the sound." β
"Oh?
Barbara: "Π£~"
Phoebe does not doubt the others: "Π£~"
Barbara had already approached Phoebe just now, and when she saw Phoebe obediently reading it, she immediately leaned her face over......
It didn't take long, but the iron door had been open for a while, and Barbara was satisfied to start the car, then glanced at Phoebe, who was looking puzzled, and said with a smile: "That guy from Ebron taught me." β
Phoebe was still confused.
Barbara laughed again: "Okay, just to cheat the kiss, haha~"
Phoebe shook her head, then craned her neck to look in the rearview mirror and said, "Why are you using this lipstick?" As he spoke, he found a wet towel and began to wipe his mouth.
Barbara also glanced at her lips, then smiled wryly, "Well, you're right. At the same time, I also wiped the wet wipes that Phoebe handed over in time.
Phoebe said again at this time: "By the way, I saw that Asterya mentioned that the Ukrainian special forces don't seem to be mixing well?"
Barbara nodded and said, "Actually, they haven't been doing very well. After speaking, he glanced at Phoebe: "You seem to have been interested in them before, right?"
Phoebe nodded and said: "After all, we can only find people with combat effectiveness from the retired soldiers of the border brigade, so it will be a little insufficient to cope with the next situation." And if the United States is looking for it, we are obviously powerless, Langley and the NSA are keeping a close eye on it, whether it is the strategic command department, the navy, or the air force, we can't believe it, or those in Eastern European countries are better to operate. β
"Uh...... Why do you say that? We're actually very powerful. Barbara was puzzled.
Phoebe tilted her head and looked at Barbara for a while, looking at Barbara a little hairy, before she said: "Barbara, you used to operate in Eastern Europe with the support of a complete support system, so in terms of security, you will naturally treat the United States and us as one, which is a kind of psychological inertia." However, as our strength increases, no matter how much Langley's side supports us, it is limited, and we must have more of our own strength. β
Barbara pondered for a while, nodded, and said with a wry smile: "You're right, but you said that the Ukrainians did it, what should we do, you know, at least in terms of treating the personnel of the special forces, Ukraine is still doing very well, and it is difficult for us to poach people." β
Phoebe looked at the front of the car window and said: "Then find a way to create something that the Ukrainians will spit on and hate, for example, killing people and setting fires is not tolerated by the people of this country - I know that the Ukrainians have specially formed a special unit that has always been directly under the Ministry of Internal Affairs, specifically for domestic stability, and such a force, as long as we operate it well, can easily be caught in the resentment of the people." Let's spread the reasons for the guilt of SS officers in Ukraine at the end of World War II, when they were on trial, and the international tribunal convicted them......"
Barbara frowned slightly, then nodded, "Although you are fulfilling the orders given by your superiors, you do not think about the correctness of the orders when you fulfill the orders, so you are guilty." β
Phoebe smiled, nodded, and did not speak.
Barbara was silent for a moment, then shook her head and said, "It doesn't look like a plan that can be accomplished in the short term." β
Phoebe nodded and said: "Half a year to a year, this plan really can't be rushed, the most important thing is that they will also be Titan in the future, so, this plan ......" Phoebe said here, turned her head to look at Barbara and said: "You can't let Titan do it like before, I need you to use your network in Eastern Europe to do it." β
Barbara immediately understood what Phoebe meant, Phoebe had just clearly mentioned that it was a force belonging to the security agency, not a military agency, and that this matter had to be done through an intelligence network with which she had contacts, apparently with the help of Langley's hands. Although Phoebe said to be guarding against Langley, it was obvious that this matter was not for Langley - this made Barbara wake up, yes, because it was a force of the security agencies, obviously Langley and the NSA would not worry about anything, if Phoebe was plotting against the military special forces, it would be difficult to say what the result would be, so he nodded and said: "Okay, as long as there is a complete plan, it is no problem to find an executor." β
Phoebe nodded and said: "Before this, Titan wants to increase the search for the remains of soldiers in the field in Ukraine, it just so happens that the life of the Ukrainians is not very easy, we can pay to invite their 'field survival experience' troops as guides, so as to contact feelings in advance, such as if someone in someone's family is sick and cannot be cured, you can let their people enjoy the treatment of Titan employees in advance." β
Barbara smiled at this time: "Don't you worry about the people of Titan, do you think it will be uncomfortable to recruit a large number of Ukrainians?"
Phoebe nodded and said: "Indeed, this must be a big problem, but you know, our Atlantic Floaters have been activated, and the surface area of five thousand square kilometers, even if there are nearly eight thousand American troops and family members, the island is still empty." And after the success of my plan, our people will feel empathy because of the experience of Ukrainian servicemen, and it will not be a big problem to accept them. β
"What about the language problem? You used to have a vague meaning of using English and Chinese as a second or third foreign language, and now you want to add Russian?"
"That's a problem......" Phoebe nodded.
Seeing that Phoebe was silent, Barbara pursed her lips and did not speak.
After a while, Phoebe said, "The language problem is really a big problem. I'm afraid we won't be able to keep the people we recruit after a long time. β
Barbara nodded.
"But even if we keep a tenth, it's good for us, and even if we don't have such a plan, to be honest, looking at the way that force is used, it's actually very simple to deduce what will happen to them in the future, and I'm just pushing it a little bit to make the result appear faster. β
Barbara was stunned for a moment, frowned, and said, "You mean, sooner or later, the Ukrainian side will take the initiative to give up support for the troops?"
"It's to give up support for the stability maintenance force, and when the time comes, the Russians will most likely take over the force. Phoebe said.
Barbara frowned and nodded slowly, "In that case, then you have to write this matter in the action plan, at least so that when I convince Langley to cooperate, they will realize the seriousness of the problem." β
Phoebe nodded, "Okay." β
Barbara added: "By the way, don't say that you want this force, let's just say that you see this tendency, and only have this plan for the purpose of not increasing the strength of the Russians, and we are just reluctantly arranging the whereabouts of this force." β
"Hmm. Phoebe nodded again, and then Phoebe smiled again: " Actually, I'm still very interested in the core contaminated area of Chernobyl, you know, in our space program, there is a very important direction is the protection technology of high-energy particle flow, our finished product is almost completed, and the miniaturized equipment used on the ground has also been made, but it can only be tested in the laboratory, and it needs a fully open environment for testing, but it is obviously too ostentatious to transport things directly to Zyrnobyl, if we can let the Ukrainian soldiers cover for us, it would be great. β
Barbara nodded.
Phoebe continued: "I thought about whether to find a nuclear power plant to solve some problems, but it is quite appropriate to think that this matter can be done together with the matter of buying the Golden Eagle troops, and it can be regarded as letting the people of the Golden Eagle understand that joining Titan is not just joining a small company casually. β
Barbara nodded again, "Well, I agree, with their knowledge, if they know the test we are going to do, they will definitely understand that Titan looks like a little, but in fact it must be extremely powerful." β
Then, Barbara suddenly asked Phoebe a question: "What do you really think about Russia?"
Phoebe looked at Barbara.
Barbara said: "Although I don't know what your specific plan is, you should know that the Golden Eagle unit you want was established by pro-Russian people, and this unit naturally has pro-Russian characteristics, so I guess you want to use the pro-Russian and anti-Russian crowds in Ukraine to make trouble, so as to make this force a role on the cusp, right?"
Phoebe held out a hand towards Barbara and said, "Well, I'll admit it, Eastern European things are really your forte. β
Barbara shook her head and said: "To answer my question, Ukraine is now in Langley's action plan, and they want Ukraine to join the NATO system, aren't you afraid that Langley will ask why your plan can fit so well with their plan?"
Phoebe pretended to be innocent and shook her head, "It's just a coincidence, really. β
Barbara sighed again: "Well, it's a coincidence, but my first question is, what do you think of Russia?" β
Phoebe nodded and said, "Well, Russia, you can't make them too weak. To be honest, I don't like the U.S. messing up Russia completely, you know, the Russian mind is still very interesting, and it will provide Titans with a lot of different ideas, and in this regard, the Russian-Americans can't do the Russians. β
"So?"
"So, I want to help the Russians, not to make them too weak, of course, it is enough to keep them alive, not too strong. β
Barbara nodded, glanced at Phoebe and said, "But what you did in Ukraine is not also digging the corner of the Russians?"
"Actually, I'm reducing the burden on the Russians, you know, taking in a high-level army, the financial pressure on the Russians will definitely increase. Phoebe shook her head.
Barbara frowned and thought for a while, and said: "Your idea is a typical idea in the diplomatic circle, if you mess up Russia, the life of the traditional diplomatic family will not be easy, after all, with the backing of the United States, the diplomatic work with the Russians will obviously become very simple, people outside the circle can do it, and the family in the circle will inevitably reduce a lot of opportunities." β
Phoebe nodded, "Well, we are all members of the diplomatic family, so we have to do something for this circle." β
Barbara couldn't help but smile a little and said, "Your expression looks like a strong sense of responsibility. β
"Well, that's good. Phoebe smiled and then pointed ahead, "Where are you going?"
Barbara said proudly, "Didn't you guess it all just now? But don't worry, I'll do the main work, you just sit in the corner and deal with a few stunned youths, and it's no problem to drag it to the corner and beat people. β
"What kind of people's party?"
Barbara shrugged: "The IRS and the Secret Service, oh yes, and the people from Dapa, I'm going to deal with them mainly, you basically don't have to pay attention to the others, just show your face." β
Phoebe nodded, and said, "From the Secret Service?"
Barbara nodded: "Well, the Secret Service, by the way, it's possible that Troy is also there." β
"Oh, he didn't go to China with Mira?"
Barbara smiled: "The Secret Service had approved his resignation before, but as soon as the news of his engagement to Mira spread, the Secret Service immediately repented and sent people to chat with him every day, wanting to pull him back." This kind of high-level drinking party, the Secret Service will definitely bring him with you in the spirit that even if you leave, you have to give me something at the end, you know, all the agencies under the Congress. And you know, if Mira hears that you're going to be at this party, I'm afraid she'll let Troy protect you. β
Phoebe shrugged and spread her hands.
Barbara smiled and said, "I know you don't need protection, but the eldest sister told me that you are the most precious one in the family, and there must be no mistakes." β
Phoebe had no choice but to say, "It's really troublesome, why do you want me to come to the drinking party?...... Oh, I see, you want me to help get Troy out of the Secret Service maelstrom, right?"
"Hah! Clever, that's what it is. Barbara laughed.
"Well, who let me make the idea...... By the way, the outside world seems to know my attitude towards the new president, so how about I criticize him again in front of the Secret Service at this reception?"
Barbara nodded, "Well, good idea, it's best to get Troy to go along with you, but you need to remind him that he's a little slow to react in this regard." β
Phoebe nodded, "yes, I see...... But Barbara, I'm still your boss, aren't I?"
In the car, Barbara's hilarious voice suddenly came out, she sometimes thinks Phoebe is very smart, but sometimes she is stupid and cute, no wonder Sunny Taeyeon and they all like to bully Phoebe, well, the bullying just now, it's really not enjoyable, forget it, let's talk about it later......
