The third major event mentioned in the telegram had to do with Wallace.

A few hours ago, on the morning of the 19th local time, Wallace was sworn in as federal president in Golden Bay in the presence of several judges of the Federal Circuit.

Obviously, the move is fully in line with the laws of the Nuland Federation.

Here's the problem, though!

Before Wallace announced his inauguration, all the news about Lofus's death was just rumors, and there was no news from Hwaseong.

That is, the death of Lofos has not yet been officially recognized.

Legally, the president of the Union of Nuland is still Lofus!

The president is not dead, and the vice president is sworn in, which certainly does not have the force of law.

That's where Hale is great.

In any case, Hale has been in the dark for 10 years, and his political skills are definitely not comparable to that of a conservative politician like Wallace.

It's just that Wallace doesn't know what is going on, and he has no choice.

Why does Hale want to "keep it a secret"?

Obviously, when the situation in Hwaseong stabilized, Hale, in his capacity as secretary of state, would use the special circumstances of the war as a reason to let Wallace return to Hwaseong first and take the oath of office in the Gray House or Congress, so as to ensure that the situation in the Union could remain stable.

Critically, this is an irrefutable reason.

In addition, there will not be too long a delay, and perhaps on the 19th or 20th, the letter from the State Department will be sent to Wallace through the local government.

Herein lies the problem.

After receiving the message from Hale, will Wallace go back, or will he not go back?

There is no doubt that whether you go back or not, the result is the same.

Go back, he will definitely die halfway through. If you don't go back, you will voluntarily give up the presidency.

It was in this way that Wallace had to be sworn in before Hale sent a telegram and then set off for Hwaseong as the rightful president.

Obviously, the difference between the president and the vice president is wide.

The president is the supreme commander of the Nuland army, and all Nuland soldiers must obey the president.

And the vice president, not even a fart.

That is, after being formally sworn in as president, Wallace will be able to mobilize troops, at least to keep the West Coast troops under his command.

Crucially, unless Hale can abolish his presidency, he will have to accept a fait accompli on the premise that federal stability is paramount.

It can be seen that Wallace is in a hurry to be sworn in as president of the Federation, mainly for self-preservation.

As for whether to sit on the throne of the president, or what to do after becoming president, the vice president, who has been wandering outside the decision-making circle, obviously did not think clearly.

However, this is also the key.

Moreover, it also reflects the problems of Nuland's decision-making hierarchy, or the inevitable result of Lofos's exclusion of Wallace from the decision-making circle.

In the light of the circumstances, Hale's worries were a bit unnecessary.

What if Wallace returns to Hwaseong and lives in the Gray Palace?

The war has entered its fourth year, and the Nuland Federation has been in the war for more than two years, and the main war faction loyal to Lofos has all the real power positions, just a moderate president, and it is impossible to change anything, let alone resist the opposition of the federal government and Congress.

In the case of Lofus, then the president is the supreme commander with absolute authority.

For someone else, the president is nothing more than a sculpture, or other totems, more like a standard-bearer at the front of the line.

A president who has no real power is actually not even a totem!

To put it mildly.

If Wallace doesn't want to be a puppet president, the Gray House will be his prison!

Unfortunately, Hale didn't do this, but instead pushed Wallace to the other extreme, or to be precise, he was about to push Wallace to the other extreme.

According to the Sixth Bureau, Hale has received the support of both houses of Congress and will soon submit a proposal to remove Wallace.

Of course, it would be accurate to find that Wallace's swearing-in as federal president in Golden Bay was unconstitutional, and to strip Wallace of his vice presidency on this ground.

If all goes well, an order will also be issued to local law enforcement agencies to arrest Wallace immediately.

In this way, the next successor prescribed by law, the Speaker of the House of Representatives of Congress, will serve as president.

Here's the point.

Lofus's death is an undeniable fact, and there are enough witnesses and evidence to prove that Wallace was sworn in as president after Lofus's death.

Legally, Wallace is the president!

Crucially, the most crucial witness, Missy, Lofus's life secretary, had left Hwaseong and was on his way to Jinwan.

According to the information provided by the Sixth Bureau, she will be able to reach Jinwan on the 20th at the earliest!

The Sixth Bureau also provided a message.

It is likely that Lofus's death was related to Chull.

Even if Chull was not the murderer, he was largely responsible for failing to inform the staff of the Grey House immediately after Lofos's stroke, thus delaying the precious time of resuscitation. If the staff had been informed in time and first aid had been administered, Lofos would not have died.

Here, too, Hale is involved.

Before going to the Gray Palace to meet Lofos, Chull had a secret meeting with Hale for several hours, and it was Hale who sent him to the Gray Palace, after which he left the Gray Palace early on the grounds that he had other things to deal with, and did not stay until Chull had finished talking with Lofos.

With such a pull, Hale is also suspicious!

As for the powerful relationship, it is likely to be related to the Maple Leaf Country.

At least according to the speculation of the sixth game, Hale probably felt that the Maple Leaf Kingdom should be sacrificed, and the Maple Leaf Kingdom was originally a colony of the Bran Kingdom, and was still nominally an overseas territory of the Bran royal family, so he stood on the opposite side of Lofos on this crucial issue.

This is no ordinary disagreement that can be laughed at.

The policy toward the Maple Leaf Kingdom directly involves the basic strategy of the Newland Federation, or the most core interest, that is, the "Monroe Doctrine" launched by the previous president.

For nearly 100 years after defeating its long-cherished enemies to the south, the Nuland Federation has been steadfast in pursuing this policy.

It can be seen that if the Maple Leaf Kingdom is handed over and reverted to becoming a colony of the Bran Kingdom, even if it is temporarily borrowed, it is politically unimaginable.

This is also the key to Lofus's refusal to agree.

It's a pity that Hale is a politician, not a politician.

Perhaps, in his opinion, as long as he can win the big war, he can sacrifice everything.

If the two had serious disagreements on this issue, it could not be ruled out that Hale had borrowed Chull's hand or conspired with Chull.

Obviously, when Lofus's most trusted life secretary, Missy, arrives at Golden Bay, the situation is even more complicated.

From the initial analysis, it can also be seen that Missy's hasty departure from Hwaseong and desperate rush to Jinwan must be related to the cause of Lofus's death.

In addition, she must have had extremely important evidence in her hands.

In fact, she is the number one witness herself!

If Hale or the soon-to-be-president-in-office speaker of the House of Representatives go the other way and take the Maple Leafs as a victim, the situation may spiral out of control.

Fundamentally, it is actually driven by interests to make a simple thing very complicated.

However, this also shortened the duration of the entire battle significantly.
