Not only is the Han government studying the situation in the Pacific at home, but Warsonton is also keeping a close eye on every move here.

At the White House, President Busch is discussing the latest situation in the Pacific with Secretary of State Baker, CIA Director William, Secretary of Defense Cheney, and other dignitaries.

Although the present stage is on the eve of the imminent launch of the war against Saddam Hussein, and preparations for the Gulf War have also entered the countdown, this does not prevent Hua Songton from paying close attention to the changes in the situation in the Pacific.

In particular, there is a vast strait in the Pacific Ocean, which is a key strategic node, and it is impossible for Warsonton's global perspective to ignore this position.

The soldier's warmongering style was evident from the time he was president.

As long as he is faced with military policy, he will frown, and when he has to deal with the economy, he will yawn.

That's why Bushi lost the 1992 presidential election.

Regardless of the economic stance, the general evaluation of charity in the West is positive, especially the disintegration of the Soviet Union and the successive changes of power in Eastern Europe during his tenure, and Western commentators regard this as a contribution of charity.

In the Persian Gulf War, Busch decisively declared war on Iraq, which made the West tend to support the side of Ash in military policy.

It can be said that during the administration of Bushi, the achievements of military operations took precedence over economic problems. In contrast to the military, the performance of the charity in the economic problems of the United States is much worse.

It can even be said that the achievements in the field of the seven economies are terrible.

The first economic problem that Bush Sr. faced when he took office was the fiscal deficit.

In 1990, the country had a deficit of $220 billion, a threefold increase since 1980.

He believed that the solution was to reduce government spending, but under pressure from the Democratic-controlled Congress, the only option was to raise taxes to solve the deficit.

When he ran in 1988, he promised not to raise taxes during his term in office, but that move broke his campaign promise.

During his tenure, the country also experienced a six-month recession, with unemployment jumping to high levels and a sharp increase in federal welfare spending.

By 1992, the unemployment rate had risen to 7. 8%, the highest since 1984.

"William, tell me about the situation in the Pacific."

"Yes, Mr. President. Since the outbreak of the war around the Han Kingdom in the Pacific, the Han Kingdom has sprung up and defeated the two countries of Philippine and Nanban.

Especially the defeat of the Nanban, this naval battle was indeed unexpected by everyone.

After the naval battle, because the two countries of Philippine Island and Nanban lost in the foreign war, **** occurred in the country, which led to the fall of the old government and the new government.

Of course, there was a Han element in this, and the CIA noticed some signs, such as the appearance of the Southern Barbarians in the civil war on the Philippine Island, who were mercenaries.

Who hired them? Obviously, it cannot be ruled out that it was the Han State.

At present, the governments of both countries are negotiating separately with Han in order to end the state of war between the two sides as soon as possible.

However, to this day, we have not seen any agreement from them.

The main factor in this is probably that Han's asking price is too high, so that the other party cannot accept the price offered by Han.

Previously, part of the Cambodian army took advantage of the civil strife in Nanban to occupy part of the territory in the southwest of Nanban. At that time, all parties in the civil war in the South Barbarians had no time to take care of it, so that the Cambodian army succeeded.

Now that the situation in Nanban has stabilized, it is time to fight back against the Cambodian invasion.

However, the intensity of this counterattack was somewhat large, and it actually broke into the territory of Cambodia.

So far, at least, the C.I.A. has not seen what the Nanban government wants to achieve in this military operation.

Whether it was the Nanban government that wanted to make a fortune when it invaded Cambodia so that its own government could afford to repay the war reparations demanded by the Han state, the CIA did not dare to draw a final conclusion.

As for the Cambodian side, at present, there are many factions in their country, each of which has its own army, and it is difficult to form a joint force against the Nanban army.

In order to preserve their strength, the regimes of the Khmer People's Army (KMT) Pobut and Nukh side, Song Shuang of the Khmer People's Army, and Han Samlin were unwilling to confront the Nanban army head-on, resulting in the rapid advance of the Nanban army, which was about to threaten Phnom Penh. ”

Busch noticed the question about mercenaries and turned to Secretary of State Baker: "What do you think about mercenaries?" ”

Beck thought for a moment and replied: "Mr. President, the question about mercenaries is not surprising, the population of Han is too small, especially the army.

As long as it involves land warfare, the Han State is definitely powerless, and the mercenaries are probably just a supplementary force.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that it is inconvenient for the Han State to directly send troops, and wants to use this force to disturb the situation in the other party's country so that a situation favorable to itself can appear, nor does it rule out adding bargaining chips for the next step of negotiations.

Since the mercenaries appeared, it can only show that the Han State occupied a strong position in the negotiations with the Southern Barbarians and achieved some achievements. At the same time, it also shows that the attitude of the Nanban shows signs of yielding, and it is a form of cooperation with the Han state before the two sides reach an agreement. ”

"Well, it makes sense, although the Han State immigrated millions from Yahua, it is a drop in the bucket to be scattered in various industries. If there was really to fight, especially a land war, the Han had to resort to mercenaries. However, the situation in Cambodia must not get out of control, and Han intervention is still needed if necessary. Hua Songton attaches so much importance to the Han Kingdom, and they should be honored for it. ”

President Busch still agrees with the Secretary of State, saying that this is not the point of the issue.

"Mr. President, the last time I spoke with the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Han Dynasty, I already expressed my intention on this issue.

The Han foreign minister said that the situation in Cambodia is under control, and the Cambodian issue has been added to the talks. The attitude of the Han State was that if the Nanban did not give in, or if the situation in Cambodia got out of control, the Han State would not rule out sending troops to intervene.

On this issue, I think Han Guo is somewhat optimistic.

The Nanban had successfully invaded the territory of Cambodia, and would not easily retreat without getting enough benefits.

In particular, so far, the United Nations has not taken any measures on this issue, and no resolution has been formed, which has further fueled the ambitions of the Nanban. ”

At the time of the invasion of Cambodia, Hua Songton had reached a consensus to delay the intervention of the United Nations and try to involve the Han state, preferably allowing the Han state to send troops to the Indochina Peninsula.

Bu Shi was in a good mood, and a smile appeared on his face from time to time, and he said: "Yes, it is possible for the Han Kingdom to support a pro-Han government on the Philippine Island, which is not a problem.

At present, Warsonton's focus is on the Middle East, and he will not have the energy to solve Pacific affairs until the end of the Gulf War. ”
