Defense Secretary William Howard Taft was really confused, and he was a little tired of the game of politics. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

In his politics seemed to have nothing to do with justice, and he preferred to pursue a career as an impartial judge rather than the law. This should be a relatively normal job.

However, this world is so helpless, most of the time, we are doing things that backfire on our wishes.

Taft still wanted to say it: "Your Excellency, I think, I prefer, I studied law, I should be a judge." ”

Theodore Roosevelt returned to his seat, closed his eyes, sighed, and said, "In this world, it's not about what you want to do, it's about what you should do." We have no choice.

My old friend, we all have to learn to adapt and adapt to this colorful and cruel world. Learn to grieve and compromise when necessary. Only in this way can we go longer. There's nothing more fun than being alive. ”

"Compromise? Is it always necessary to compromise without principle? So what's the point of this world? Taft shook his head helplessly.

Roosevelt took off his glasses, rubbed his tired eyes for a while, and said, "Our world, our lives, have no meaning in the first place, but our thoughts and practices give them meaning."

My old friend, sometimes you don't have to be so stubborn about an idea, if you do, you will be bound to death by your own attachment.

I have been emphasizing from the beginning that this is a jungle world of the strong, and what we need is not to pretend to be B here and flaunt our senseless nobility everywhere, but to work pragmatically. What we need is a goal that we have set from the beginning, in other words, what we need is a result that we desire.

It doesn't matter what the process looks like, as long as we get the results we want, that's the meaning, the meaning of this world, the meaning of each of our lives.

In the words of the literati, it is called, for the sake of the results we seek, we can do whatever it takes! ”

Taft was completely devastated, and he waved his hand at Roosevelt weakly and said, "Don't say any more, these political theories of yours will drive me crazy." You say, how do we do it, I don't want to think about it so much, I'll just execute. ”

Roosevelt frowned, before, in his eyes, his secretary of defense should be his ideal next president, but this is too persistent, and it is really a little helpless. Now maybe this guy is better suited to be an impartial judge.

Roosevelt picked up the telegram on the table, and between the lines of the text, the tough tone of the king of Hainan made him feel a strong signal.

Roosevelt was like a tiger roaring in the mountains and forests, smelling the smell of blood, and suddenly became excited.

This was also a signal of battle, and Roosevelt suddenly felt that it should be very pleasant to be able to compete with an opponent like the King of Hainan. At this moment, President Roosevelt's heart was already full of infinite expectations for this war.

The coolest trick in the field of knots

"Your Excellency President, I don't want to listen to your despicable remarks now, I just want to know how we, the United States, will respond if the King of Hainan blockades Taiwan, and do you really want to fight a war in the Taiwan Strait that we can't predict the outcome of?

If we really go to war with the Hainan army, we will not be able to control the war situation with absolute superiority in the early stage, and if it continues to be consumed for a long time, I am worried that our warships will not only not be able to supply artillery shells, but may even be short of fuel for the warships.

As far as I know, the opponent we are facing is the King of Hainan, who is a super tyrant, and after the "Pyongyang Treaty", Japan compensated him with nearly 200 million silver, which is simply rich and makes the whole world blush.

Against such a rich man armed with gold to the teeth, our fleet is like a poor beggar who doesn't even have pants, and I'm afraid we can't afford to play! ”

Roosevelt frowned and said, "Are we really out of money?" ”

"The majority of the people in the National Assembly and the two houses are opposed to this war against Hainan, and they believe that there is no need for us to pay for such an untrustworthy deflated person as Japan, so your Excellency, this military budget for sending troops to Taiwan has not been approved."

Roosevelt paced back and forth in the room, he seemed to feel a kind of extreme powerlessness, and he scolded angrily: "These stupid pigs, they only know profit! ”

Taft was surprised and asked blankly: "Your Excellency President, it seems that you have also said before, do we only have interests in our eyes when we engage in politics?" ”

Roosevelt was stunned for a moment, and then explained: "The interests I am talking about are not the same as the interests they are referring to, the interests I am talking about are the present and future interests of a country, and those stupid congressmen are only clinging to their immediate interests, these rat-eyed guys!" ”

After Roosevelt finished this complaint, he suddenly burst out laughing.

The enemy is not a star, and Dugu Sun learns the skill of the ship

Roosevelt, who was a little out of order, said: "Your Excellency, is it necessary to continue to carry out our military plan for the Taiwan Strait?" ”

Roosevelt said categorically: "Of course it will be carried out!" ”

Sun Ke is the coolest revenge, and the moon queen is examined

Taft said: "Will this be a risky military operation, please think carefully!" ”

Sun Ke Yuanqiu's coolest moon after the month was examined, and his politics seemed to have nothing to do with justice, and he preferred to be an impartial judge than the law. This should be a relatively normal job.

A shallow smile appeared on Roosevelt's stiff face, and he said excitedly: "We have our own secret weapon, and with it, it will be much easier to deal with the Hainan army's blockade of Taiwan Island." ”

Taft knew that the secret weapon that President Roosevelt was referring to was the two transport submarines that had been successfully launched not long ago, and he seemed to understand Roosevelt's thoughts and nodded.

Roosevelt immediately telegraphed to Tokyo, Japan, regarding the telegram from the king of Hainan, asking them to immediately reply to the king of Hainan, telling the king of Hainan that since the Japanese army had not yet completed the handling of many matters in Taiwan, he asked the king of Hainan to postpone the time of receiving Taiwan, and urged Tokyo to immediately organize a joint fleet, move closer to Taiwan, cooperate with the US South Pacific Fleet and the Far East Fleet, arrive in the Taiwan Strait, and prepare for war with the Hainan army, and stressed that all the logistical supplies of the US military in the Taiwan Strait should be borne by the Japanese side.

After receiving President Roosevelt's telegram, Tokyo immediately sent a telegram to Fengtianfu in northeastern China and proposed to the king of Hainan to postpone the handover to Taiwan.

When the last sentence of the Meiji Emperor President Sfuku, he scolded, "The Americans of the Marergobi, Lao Tzu is now dying of poverty, and he will come to blackmail us again!" ”
