Chapter 262: Iron Fist (First Update, Ask for a Monthly Pass!)
Area 51 is one of the American refuges, a small city that houses 150,000 civilians and 50,000 soldiers.
Among the 150,000 civilians, 60,000 are elites from all walks of life, of which nearly half are scientists, and it can be said that Area 51 is currently the most elite part of American society, and the remaining 140,000 people, except for 50,000 soldiers, the rest are basically the immediate family members of elites and base workers.
Gallian. Smith's luck was quite good, due to his previous work experience in Area 51, he was sent here by the Ministry of Defense to take charge of the specific work before the Gaia Civilization fleet arrived on Earth. Smith is just an executor, but who would have thought that the war situation changed so quickly, the Earth Space Fleet was forced to surrender after only a few hours of resistance after the start of the war, after the moon base fell into the hands of the Gaians, the Gaian fleet soon launched a landing attack on the Earth, and the bigwigs in Washington began to evacuate in a hurry after the landing war began, and it was too late at this time, with the disappearance of the vice president, the presidential convoy was destroyed by the small spaceship of the Gaians, and the original supreme command of Area 51 can be said to be completely destroyed.
Lost the central figure, Assistant Secretary of Defense Galen. Smith became the supreme commander of District 51 without hesitation, and in the face of the grim shape of Galen. Smith convened an emergency meeting with the participation of several District 51 supervisors, garrison commanders, and the remaining senators.
At the meeting, Galen. Smith told everyone the bad news, and when they heard that the president's motorcade had been killed, everyone showed painful expressions, and even one female senator even hid her face and cried bitterly. What's more, most of the high-level officials of the U.S. government were among the victims, and now that the whereabouts of the vice president are unknown, it can be said that the core of the U.S. government has been basically wiped out by the Gaiaians.
"Gentlemen! Ladies! "Galen. Smith stood up, and in front of the mournful room, he said in a deep voice: "The death of Mr. President and government officials is indeed a tragedy, but please note that the war of mankind against aliens continues. The war against aliens is still going on all over the United States, including around the world, and we still have the strength and the ability to defend the earth, and I want to tell you that this is not a sad time, but that we need all to come together and drive these invaders out of our homeland ...... like our ancestors. ”
"We understand your point, Mr. Smith, but do you think we can win this war?" One senator asked suddenly.
When Galen. When Smith set his eyes on him. The senator shifted his sitting posture a little uneasily, and continued: "According to the information I just received, there are no more than 10 countries still resisting, France and Germany have reached the last moment, and there is a possibility of falling anytime and anywhere, I am afraid that by this time tomorrow, the resistance of the entire earth will be completely destroyed by aliens...... ”
"Sir, we are aware of all this, please explain what you want to say directly." Gallian. Smith interrupted him in an unkind tone.
The senator paused. Grinning reluctantly, he stretched out his finger and pointed to the top of his head and said, "Mr. Smith." The reality is cruel, the United States is now at its last moment, and if the resistance of our military has any effect, as a citizen of the United States, I certainly want to see the outcome of victory. But gentlemen, including the ladies present, the difference in strength between the two sides in this war is too great, with all due respect. In my opinion, I'm afraid that we earthlings will not be able to resist the attack of the other party at all. ”
Speaking of this, the senator looked a little sad, but he said sincerely: "Sometimes, the solution to war does not necessarily need to be solved by force. Especially when there is no hope of victory at all, as there is now. Some of the countries that have surrendered are said to have been no longer attacked by aliens, and this situation has also freed their citizens from the threat of war. Instead of letting the people shed their lives in vain, it is better to try another way to solve the problem. ”
The senator did not directly say what the other solution was, and it was clear to everyone present that he meant nothing more than surrender to the Gaian civilization. Although all the current networks and satellite settings on the earth have been destroyed by the Gaians, after the landing attack began, the Gaia civilization did not attack the countries that had surrendered, on the contrary, the Gaia civilization also used their technology to send the information of the surrendered countries to the whole world of the earth.
This situation is also the situation in which countries continue to announce their surrender in the following period, and when there is no hope of victory in the war and huge casualties, more and more countries have no choice but to surrender in the face of the desire for life. And now, this is exactly the method proposed by this senator, and in his opinion the war has been lost, not only the United States, but all the countries of the whole earth, and in the absence of the head of state and the leadership of high-ranking government officials, surrender is probably the only way out.
"That's what you think?" Gallian. Smith asked, staring at the senator with eagle-like eyes.
The senator hesitated for a moment and finally nodded: "Of course this is my opinion, in fact, it is not only me, I think most of the people present see it this way, for the continuation of mankind, in order to preserve the bloodline of mankind, sometimes it is ...... to make appropriate sacrifices." ”
Without waiting for the senator to finish, Galen. Smith reached out and pulled a gun from behind his waist with an expressionless face, and pulled the trigger in the face of the other man's instantly horrified expression.
A gunshot rang out, and the shocked expression of the senator who was still talking a second ago instantly froze on his face, and a deep bloody hole appeared in his forehead, and the back of his head was directly lifted off by a powerful bullet, Bai Huahua's brain and half of his skull flew out, and then the whole person shook and fell straight into the chair.
This scene happened so suddenly, when everyone reacted, the senator had already become a corpse, and the female senator, who was still crying just a moment ago, suddenly let out a piercing scream, but the scream quickly stopped again, because she saw Galen. As Smith swept toward her with a gray, merciless gaze, the fear in her heart stopped as if her throat had been choked at once.
"There has never been such a word as surrender in the history of the United States, and I hope you will remember that this is a war of life and death for mankind, and a battle for the fate of our human race! Now I declare that Area 51 will resist to the end, for humanity, for America, for our future! ”
"I agree with Mr. Smith, in the current situation, we humans must resist to the end, the aliens' intentions are clear, don't be deceived by their lies, once we lay down our arms we lose the ability to defend ourselves, the other side is absolutely going to exterminate us humans." The other senator stood up with an agitated expression, waving his fist and expressing his opinion. Smith was still like a pro-war faction.
None of the people present were fools, and they scolded this guy in their hearts for being too good at performing, and he seized the opportunity to show his loyalty so well, and at the same time, he suddenly woke up, and scrambled to pat his chest and said that he would fight with Galen. Together, Smith continued to resist.
When he saw that everyone had no objections, Galen. Smith's expression finally eased slightly, and he went on to propose the establishment of an emergency committee for the United States as the nation's highest temporary command body. Smith will of course be the chairman of the committee, and the members of the committee will be the members of the committee. This was unanimously agreed on the spot, and in less than half an hour, this emergency committee was formally established to replace the already finished US government to take over the supreme power of the whole United States. (To be continued......)
