Chapter 786: No Decisive Decision
"Junhao, we have known each other for many years, I know your feelings, but this matter involves the form of the Vietnam battlefield and the country's foreign policy, we can't get too involved in it, we must do what we should do according to the requirements of our superiors."
The person who urgently made an appointment to meet Chen Mingzhe was Company Commander Yang. When he learned from inside sources that Chen Mingzhe had taken a big risk to find the president and wanted to apply to lead a team to Vietnam, he was very annoyed. That's why we had this unpleasant conversation.
"I'm sorry, Company Commander Yang, I know that you are not happy about what I do, but I have no choice, if a person even gives up his relatives and friends, then how can he talk about ideals, how can he talk about life, I don't understand what national policies are, but I must not sit idly by and watch them in a crisis and remain indifferent, otherwise my conscience will not be at peace."
After speaking, Chen Mingzhe put his legs together, saluted Yang Zhisheng, and left the flower shop directly.
"Stop for me, come back, do you hear me?" Yang Zhisheng was a little angry,
Seeing Chen Mingzhe's firm departure, Yang Zhisheng couldn't help but smile a little bitterly.
Thinking of Huangshan, in fact, Yang Zhisheng also wanted to rescue Huangshan, he had already sent a report to the headquarters, asking the headquarters to coordinate with the Vietnamese People's Army to help rescue him, but the headquarters refused this request, and the headquarters considered that if he did so, it would be tantamount to exposing the identity of Huangshan and other intelligence personnel, and the reason why this group of US military personnel were besieged was also a strategy of the Vietnamese People's Army, and it was inconvenient for the headquarters to intervene.
Yang Zhisheng silently watched Chen Mingzhe leave, walked into the flower shop, pondered for a few seconds, sighed, and left in a hurry.
Inside the White House, the secretary of state listens to the president's complaints.
"What kind of report these guys wrote, dozens of pages of reports, what they said is equivalent to not saying anything, and there are no opinions or conclusions.
Holding a joint meeting, gossiping, is simply quarrelling, shirking responsibility, and if we continue like this, we can only get defeat in Vietnam! ”
The president's voice became more and more high-pitched, and the secretary of state smiled bitterly for a long time, "Don't be angry, the president, they can't do anything about it." Now there are fewer and fewer people who dare to take responsibility. ”
"Don't mention taking responsibility, the Chinese general yesterday was just messing around, that kind of decision is not something he can do as a major general, it's just not according to common sense, what if the rescue fails?" The president was angry.
"I really want to remove him from his post and let him be discharged from the army directly." The president said hatefully.
The Secretary of State continued to silently listen to the President's complaints, "President, you don't really think that, do you? ”
The president was speechless and sat on the sofa, "But there is still someone who dares to take responsibility, if he really dares to lead the team to take over this hot potato, I am still a little relieved, after all, the disappearance of hundreds of outstanding American soldiers is not only a serious military incident, but also a serious political incident, and it is necessary to make a decision quickly." The missing person is also on a secret mission, and if something really happens to the missing person, if it doesn't work out, we will be very passive. There's always a bunch of people in Congress who are looking for fault with us. ”
The Secretary of State leaned over and heard the President's words, "Then you mean ......." ”
The two talked in a low voice.
Near noon, when the president and secretary of state walked out of the White House again, Chen Mingzhe had already waited again, and many people wanted to approach again, but were stopped by the guards inside the White House.
Jokes, the last time so many people waited to see the president's joke, they didn't stop them, it was the dereliction of duty of the guards, and this time let them get close to the president, then the guards can be laid off.
The president stopped and showed kindness to Chen Mingzhe, Chen Mingzhe's heart warmed, and he hurriedly walked over,
"General Chen, you're here again, I appreciate your bravery, it's just ......"
Chen Mingzhe was originally very happy, but when he saw the president groaning, he suddenly felt excited and uneasy, and hurriedly handed the document to the president.
The president glanced at the document, this is the second time he has looked at this document, the content is the same as yesterday's, the president nodded, ready to take the pen,
Chen Mingzhe hurriedly handed the prepared pen to the president, who signed the document and solemnly signed his name.
handed it to Chen Mingzhe and was about to leave, Chen Mingzhe took the document excitedly, and in addition to being excited, he wanted to say thank you to the president.
But suddenly he realized that something was wrong, something seemed to be missing inside?
"Mr. President, please go slowly, you have a problem with this signature." Chen Mingzhe hurriedly caught up with the president.
"I'm still in trouble, what's the problem, isn't it my name?"
"No, Mr. President, you only signed the consent, the information is inaccurate and cannot be executed!"
"It's not clear, I've agreed." The president said slowly, in fact, the president knew very well that he deliberately only wrote the word "agree", which he had discussed with the secretary of state, but he didn't expect this Chinese general to be so careful that he had to let him write clearly, alas!
The reason why Chen Mingzhe asked the president to write it clearly is because in this plan and request of Chen Mingzhe, he only put forward a plan, and the opinions of the following governors are two, 2 to 2 One opinion is to agree to implement it immediately, and the other opinion is to temporarily shelve, which one is agreed by the president, and it is not stated that if Chen Mingzhe implements the rescue plan, the president agrees, and if it is temporarily shelved, does the president also agree, which is tantamount to saying in vain, there is no clear opinion.
Chen Mingzhe is most worried about this opinion.
The president and the secretary of state looked at each other, and Chen Mingzhe's move really made them feel meticulous.
The president smiled bitterly, he wanted to play a word game here, but he didn't expect this Chinese general to be so persistent.
There was no way, and at Chen Mingzhe's repeated requests, the president had to add a sentence and agreed to immediately implement the rescue plan, which was to be implemented by Chen Mingzhe. The secretary of state's face twitched, I really didn't know that this Chinese general who jumped out of there was so resolute, and the secretary really wanted to take out his pistol and shoot this Chinese general twice to relieve his hatred.
Chen Mingzhe knew that this appointment might probably need to be forgiven by Congress, but Chen Mingzhe felt that this was not a big problem, and asked Mrs. John to lead a team to Congress to make trouble twice, and it is estimated that the problem will be solved.
Those guys on Capitol Hill are all attacking their opponents under the banner of democracy and freedom, and if they can't stand on a moral standpoint, I'm afraid they will be scolded by the people for the rest of their lives, and I believe they won't stop them.
When Chen Mingzhe took the order signed by the president to appoint and agree to send troops to rescue John and others, Chen Mingzhe's heart finally fell to the ground, no one knew what Chen Mingzhe thought in his heart, and he didn't care what others thought, he rushed directly to the Ministry of Defense and the CIA headquarters, and began to deploy troops.
