Chapter 514: The "Patriotism" of Capital

Empire State Building, New York

A private party is underway.

The meeting was attended by representatives of the Morgan consortium, the head of the Rockefeller consortium, the head of DuPont, the Carnegie family, and the leaders of the shipbuilding industry.

These are the people who really control the United States in the shadows, and they join forces and even have the ability to change the president of the United States.

Seven years ago, during the Year of War in Europe, they gathered here to encourage and support the Cactus Ghana's radical policy of getting involved in the war in Europe, and to harvest Britain with the help of the Anglo-American Washington Accord.

After replacing Wilkie as president of the United States five years ago, they gathered here to encourage President Wilkie to adopt an aggressive foreign policy on Asian issues.

After the outbreak of the Pacific War four years ago, they got together and made a concerted effort to express their full support to the president in winning the war.

After Dewey succeeded Wilkie, who died violently, these people quickly expressed their loyalty to the new president, supported the war, and supported Dewey's plan to flood Japan with a "sea of warships."

These people are the founders of the world's largest industrial empire in the United States, they produce massive amounts of steel, extract oil, produce all kinds of chemicals, and make planes, warships and other war machines.

They understand very well that there can be no reason for large-scale construction without large-scale destruction. Therefore, in addition to producing these "physical goods", they also create economic crises, famines, and wars, and use war to expand "market demand", so as to help "maximize" their own interests.

For them, "peace" is just a "break" to digest what they used to eat, crises and wars, but a "meal time" to let go of their bellies and eat and drink.

Originally, they wanted to wait a while before they stopped squirming and entered the "rest time". But shortly after Independence Day, they gathered here to discuss the topic of "peace."

I am afraid that they have not come across a time in their lives when they "loved" peace more than yesterday's Independence Day.

Because just yesterday, they were all collectively "frightened". "Tricks" from the European continent, let these people "master" the United States. I tasted the feeling of being put a gun to my head and then pulling the trigger. Even if the gun was later confirmed to be an empty gun, and there was no bullet in the barrel at all, the feeling of brushing shoulders with death and peeing their pants was definitely unforgettable for them.

"Damn, that kind of thing shouldn't be in this world at all! I was in Washington at the time, and if that thing was real, I was finished! ”

"It's the same. I was in New York! My bonds, my factory, all the stuff is here. If that thing does explode here, oh my God, it's horrible! I have access to the situation in Panama, where it is very miserable, tens of thousands of people. All of a sudden, just all of a sudden! Oh, God. Atomic bomb, this is really a hell thing that shouldn't be there! ”

"Jay. Mr. Hormel (founder of the Spam Luncheon Meat Company) must be happy right now, the market is full of people rushing to buy canned food. All the junk food he produces is now out of stock. ”

"I have property in Washington, D.C., I have property in San Francisco, New York, Los Angeles, almost every city by the sea. I don't want to see that. Because someone's madness was blown up into the sky with a bang one day. I heard that there was still a lot of pollution after the explosion, and the land could not be restored for several years. God, I don't want to see that happen to me and my children. ”

"I've had people build bunkers on manors that can protect against that, not just in Washington, but in New York, Philadelphia, San Francisco. Build every place I frequent! But it takes time, and it won't be possible to complete it in a few months. Hell, I love the sun, I love the beach, I love the sea breeze, I don't want to live in this cold reinforced concrete coffin! ”

"Even if those bunkers are built, can we hide in them all day? Can we be right in there when that thing does explode? I hate this kind of life of worrying about it every day. ”

"Dewey is crazy, he is demanding nuclear retaliation against Canada, against Britain, against Germany! He doesn't look at what kind of toy he is holding in his hand, and what is the other person holding in his hand? The British openly ridiculed our nuclear experts on the radio, saying that the same material, made with their technology, would be several times more powerful than what we did! The thing that Dewey exploded in Hokkaido was just a small firecracker compared to the one they threw in Panama! ”

"The British, the Germans, the Soviets all offered to come together, don't use that, why don't you agree to them? They have a divine messenger, this thing is better than ours, is it difficult to take a step back now? Dewey, he was just a mortal, who did he think he was, did he really think of himself as St. Peter? Even though he was St. Peter, there were several fellows across from him who claimed to be oracles. ”

"This madman must be stopped! Can't let him mess around anymore! He has been sitting in the presidency for too long. It was a big mistake for us to let him be re-elected without an election, and it was time to correct it. If it doesn't work, we can find some mentally ill madman to greet him. ”

"What we should be thinking about now is how to stop the United States from getting into the game of destroying each other with its opponents before they begin! The demands of the European gangsters for the non-use of nuclear weapons against each other are not excessive, and we should accede to them! ”

"Agree with you!"

"I agree."

"I'm going to tell the Republicans to make the right choice."

"I'll deal with the people of the Democratic (Crab) Party."

"I'll take care of the media."

"That's the end of it beforehand. And what about the war, do we need peace talks? ”

"No, there can be no peace talks! The war cannot be stopped until our absolute security is assured. ”

"What do you mean?"

"Canada! After being idle for so long, it's time for the Army to play its role. The British wanted us not to use nuclear bombs, and we promised them, but they had to hand over Canada. It was so close to Washington that I didn't want to see a plane fly over Canada with an atomic bomb and drop it on my head one day. ”

"Do you think the army's arms orders have been too few in recent years?"

"Hmph, don't think I don't know. You were speculating on the dollar before March, but you were shorting the dollar in June, and you were in collusion with the British. ”

"Over there at Buckingham Palace, there are also many people who are guests of your house!"

"Multi-side betting. It is the key to not failing. I had some information beforehand, but I didn't expect them to play so big. Okay, let's get back to the topic. On the Canadian side, what if the British don't agree? ”

"If they don't say yes, we're threatening to support the president in starting a nuclear war and throwing that thing just at the heads of the British. Nothing is more important than our safety. Canada must separate from the Commonwealth and accept the protection and control of the United States, and ensure that no one will use it as a base to attack us, this is the bottom line that cannot be compromised! ””

Ten years ago, there was a line in Lin Han's masterpiece "The King of War". The phrase resonates with everyone here, which is called: "The greatest misfortune of the arms dealers who sell war in the world is to accidentally turn themselves into the largest users and "users" of arms when selling arms."

Although many of the giants here are not all pure arms dealers, they have made huge profits through this war. Technological progress has made the earth smaller, and I thought I could hide in the United States, which is protected by two oceans. They who counted the money of the war with peace of mind woke up. Suddenly it was discovered that the flames of war had gotten out of control, and under the shadow of nuclear war, even they had a great chance of being killed.

In order to save themselves from becoming "victims" of war, they began to think about the "preciousness" of peace.

When these real manipulators of the war began to "yearn" for peace, some people quickly felt depressed.

"The thing I regret the most now is the night of July 3rd. After receiving the atomic bomb attack on Artura Island, the B29 bombers at Farob Air Base were not ordered to take off and drop atomic bombs on Ottawa at the first time! ”

On July 7, U.S. time, three days after the nuclear explosion, President Dewey stood in his office in the White House. Through the glass of the office, I looked at the crowd of demonstrators holding placards in front of the White House, holding placards reading "Stop the war", "Don't destroy the world", and "Let the children go home", and spat at the secretary with a heavy heart.

The "bomb" attack, which took place from the night of 3 July (referring to US time) to the early morning of the next day, finally gave all arrogant Americans a taste of the fear that was once dominated by nuclear annihilation.

Even the American industrial giants, who made a fortune with the help of President Dewey's shipbuilding plan, also felt the fear of death that "hung by a thread."

Over the past three months, the U.S. government has spared no effort to publicize the tragic deaths of pigs, horses, cattle and sheep placed near the nuclear site during the first nuclear test to the world through films, terrorizing the world as well as its own people. The "five consecutive nuclear explosions" that occurred on the National Day of the United States caused this nuclear fear to flow back to the United States from the whole world.

The voice of anti-nuclear war was much louder than Dewey had expected, and the voice of anti-war was equally ferocious and so powerful that President Dewey did not expect.

It's one thing to threaten someone with a gun, it's another thing to have someone put a gun to the head.

A few days ago, an American was shot with a gun to the door of the head.

In the past, President Dewey used various means to constantly suppress domestic anti-war voices, but the greater the pressure, the greater the rebound. The "swindling" attack and the fear bonus brought about by the "five consecutive nuclear explosions" have led to a serious decline in the official suppression of the people, and in addition to the secret agitation, anti-war voices have been gushing out like an open floodgate in the past few days.

Those who oppose the war are not only ordinary citizens, but even the military-industrial giants, who have unswervingly supported President Dewey's war policies in the past, have expressed their opinions to the president through their own channels: they do not support the unlimited use of atomic bombs in war.

For President Dewey, this was the fatal blow.

The bluff bomb attack combined with the five consecutive nuclear explosions was essentially a "psychological attack," and the target of the attack was not only the hearts of the American people, but also the "fragile hearts" of the oligarchs and plutocrats in the United States.

Although they love money, they love their lives even more.

"If I had ordered a nuclear counterattack at the first opportunity, it would have been a fait accompli by now"

Looking at the crowd of anti-war demonstrators outside, and at the anti-nuclear war rhetoric in the Washington Post that just came out today, President Dewey reluctantly muttered in his mouth. He knows very well that at a time when the news is strictly regulated, there must be someone behind it. These three days of behind-the-scenes talks. President Dewey has met with great resistance in Congress and within the Republican Party, and the opposition to his nuclear retaliation against Canada has been very loud.

In the next war, the possibility that he wanted to solve the problem with nuclear weapons no longer exists. In the past three years, the United States has invested extremely much in the atomic bomb, and the atomic bomb was even regarded by President Dewey as the biggest trump card of the "God Butcher" for a time.

But now. This card has been scrapped under the pressure of surging voices against "nuclear annihilation" in China.

His secretary said, "Mr. President, your choice is not wrong. The other side also has nuclear weapons, and if we use them, they will use them again, in that case"

"You don't understand!"

Dewey interrupted the secretary and shook his head vigorously.

"You don't understand, you don't understand, nuclear annihilation is actually not terrible, they don't have so many atomic bombs, the real key is not here, not here!"

President Dewey closed the curtains. There was a very tired expression on his face.

He sat back at the table, rubbing his temples with his hands.

"The United States of America, which has been overdrawn in this war, is too much overdrawn, and if we do not end this war as an absolute victor and get enough war dividends after the war, the United States will collapse. Did I really build this huge fleet just to deal with the Japan to the west? No, he's just a rock in the way. ”

It's been four days since the nuclear explosion. President Dewey slept only sixteen hours in total because of lack of sleep. His eyes were bloodshot, and he was extremely frighteningly red, and his spirit was also very abnormal at this time.

"What I really want is the Pacific, it's Southeast Asia, it's India. It's Africa! The United States of America was hungry, hungry, and had to eat enough to be able to guarantee that it would not starve to death after this war ended. The atomic bomb is the guarantee that we use to threaten the world and allow us to eat enough food! ”

President Dewey at this time. Like a mentally ill person, his eyes were straight, his eyes were looking vacantly ahead, and he was babbling to himself.

"Those hooligans in the Old World also have an atomic bomb, so we don't eat wantonly anymore, but what is it? We can't eat enough, and we can make them unable to eat either. And what about nuclear war? If the United States of America can't end this war in a winner-takes-all way, the United States will be destroyed anyway, so why not drag those five evil gods to destroy together? These five countries with evil gods have prevented the United States of America from stepping on top of the world and made us fall, but I can also make them fall from the pinnacle of civilization through nuclear war! ”

"The country has two oceans, and if we blockade the Atlantic, how many atomic bombs can they throw at the United States? The Eurasian coalition seems to be very strong, but in fact the main forces are Britain and Germany. As soon as these two countries are finished, this alliance will disintegrate. How big is the UK? How big is Germany? A few atomic bombs can greatly reduce the national strength of these two countries, and they are more afraid of nuclear war than we are! As for the USSR, Germany weakened, Stalin, the speculators, they did it to Germany, and when the time came for the Soviet-German war, this anti-American alliance would naturally disintegrate! ”

President Dewey stood up with his hands propped on his desk as he spoke, and walked around his office in circles like a marquee, with a look of remorse on his face.

"I was too hesitant in the past! I should have done it a long time ago, as they had done, to load the atomic bomb into a ship, and then quietly transport it on a cargo ship into the ports of England and Germany, and then detonate it, just as they had done in Panama. ”

President Dewey continued to nagging to himself:

"I'm so stupid, how did I think of using a congressional vote to deal with this? Those Wall Street guys, those oligarchs, they've eaten a lot of the last four years of war. They don't care at all what will happen to the United States of America after the war, they only keep everything they have eaten for the past four years. The "swindle bombs" thrown by the old Europe, all these American moths were frightened, and they actually sang in front of me, and these vampires actually said to me, there is nothing in this world that is heavier than life, hum, when they encouraged President Wilkie to build the second largest white fleet four years ago, they shouted that there is something more important in the world than life."

"That little "deception" scared these vampires in the United States, I really shouldn't have given the right to decide to the puppets in Congress, I should be bolder, more daring, tomorrow Congress will agree to sign an agreement with that side not to use atomic bombs. It will be a boring conventional war, and the United States may lose, but so what? That's exactly what those guys want, we have the atomic bomb, and they know that the people in old Europe can't swim in. It would be better if all the warships were sunk, so that the United States would pay for more warships! That's what they want. I just want to see that, bastards! ”

Tomorrow's congressional vote is just a formality, and he already knows the outcome in advance.

The war will continue, because those insatiable guys want to make more money on arms. It's just that without nuclear bombs, this war will only evolve into an "inefficient" conventional war and a tug-of-war.

President Dewey was well aware of the need for a "limited war" to be fought by conventional means alone. It is impossible for the United States of America to defeat Japan, which has the support of the whole of Europe and Asia behind it. Once the war goes on endlessly, the United States will only exhaust its national strength in the long war until it is forced to give up.

Although relying on the geographical advantage of the two oceans, President Dewey was confident that the United States would not be invaded by other countries. In essence, President Dewey was an idealistic politician rather than a politician. For this war, although he himself has some selfish intentions, he does not want to become the first American president in a hundred years to sign a defeated armistice. But he can also see that the United States has been overdrawn too much in the past three years. If we do not enjoy the "victory dividend" after the war, we will face a huge economic crisis after the end of the war.

At that time, the United States will fall into the even more terrible hell of the Great Depression, and he wants to start a nuclear war like crazy, so that the United States will fall into hell at the same time. Pull several other major powers in the world into the "nuclear hell" together, so that everyone can "compare the rotten" together.

However, he is not the one who really controls the United States.

On 8 July, the US Congress voted on whether to launch a nuclear retaliation against the Eurasian Union.

At that time, marches "against nuclear war" broke out across the United States. When the parliament voted, countless people shouted loudly outside.

The ending is also "expected". Members of Congress, in response to the call of the protesters outside, finally rejected President Dewey's "nuclear retaliation" bill with a high vote of 180.

The following month was a garbage hour for the United States and the Eurasian Union to engage in "negotiations on the mutual non-use of nuclear weapons".

After more than 10 days of bickering, the two sides signed an agreement in Washington on the 20th of that month, under which the five countries that had stepped on the nuclear threshold promised each other not to use nuclear weapons in war.

After the nuclear flame was sealed, the whole country in the United States cheered, and old Europe also wiped a cold sweat to celebrate the avoidance of a nuclear war. Although the war was still going on, by this time the Norwegians had jumped out to show their presence and nominated to sign the contract

The leaders of the five countries presented the "Nobel Peace Prize," and after October, the award actually fell to the leaders of the five countries. So much so that Chairman Li Runshi unexpectedly became the first Chinese to win the Nobel Prize.

In addition to the treaty on the non-use of nuclear weapons, the United States and Britain also reached an agreement: Britain renounced Canada, Canada became independent and the United States signed the so-called North American Mutual Defense Agreement, which was the "compensation" that the Americans demanded from the British. President Dewey, who was forced by the consortium behind him and domestic pressure, declared that this was the need to ensure the absolute security of the United States. If it does not sign it, the United States will not hesitate to launch an all-out war against Canada in order to guarantee the absolute security of the United States.

In this matter, the Soviets did not want to replace the British, and although the Germans were eager to see Britain and the United States fighting each other in Canada, Artoria persuaded the British upper echelons to choose to back down and avoid an impossible war.

The nuclear crisis is over, but the war between the Old and New Worlds continues. The most ironic thing is that the war has reached this point, and although both sides have even used atomic bombs, there is still no formal declaration of war between them.

The Eurasian Union calls participation in the war "active defense" and the participating troops the Volunteer Army.

And the Americans, who don't want to completely tear their faces, also pretend not to know about this. (To be continued.)
