Chapter 816: Impeachment of the President

The battle in the Indian Ocean quickly spread to the other side of the world, and the Americans never dreamed that their own powerful sea power would be vulnerable!

What does Pakistan have? The Tomcat fighter is still made by mapping its own fighters, and the newly built aircraft carrier is only a medium-sized aircraft carrier, but in this way, the carrier-based aircraft formations of its two aircraft carriers were actually disabled!

The Hornet fighters have lost more than 50 aircraft, the A-6 attack aircraft have lost more than a dozen, and although a supercarrier can carry more than 80 fighters, all models must be fully equipped, such as helicopters, for search and rescue, such as the E-2 early warning aircraft, which are used to command operations, such as the S-3 anti-submarine aircraft, which are used to provide early warning, and these need to account for a certain proportion.

It can be said that the two aircraft carrier battle groups of our side this time have lost their combat effectiveness.

"Pakistanis are too cunning." Looking at the battle report, National Security Advisor Brent said: "The Pakistanis and we are separated by the Maldives islands, so that the huge sea warships of the two sides will not directly confront each other, but can only engage in the way of carrier-based aircraft, although our Super Hornet has strong comprehensive combat capabilities, but in terms of long-range interception, there is a certain gap compared with the Tomcat, a specialized fighter, and Pakistan also has long-range air-to-air missiles, although we have an advantage in quantity, but a disadvantage in quality, and, The Pakistanis unleashed a cyber war and destroyed our satellite systems. ”

The war has begun, but the United States has not been able to fight at first.

"The unsealing of our two mothballed aircraft carriers is underway, but the training of the crew of the aircraft carrier and the cooperation of the carrier-based aircraft wing will take a certain amount of time, and for the time being, we will not be able to send more fighters to participate in this naval battle, our air force. It is completely mired in the wars between Iran and Afghanistan. Cheney also said: "Our situation is not optimistic. ”

Now that the United States has officially started a naval battle with Pakistan, Pakistan has also been uncompromising and has exported a large number of fighter jets to Iran, which has made the United States more difficult to fight in Iran, and at the same time. In the name of supporting the Taliban, the United States has launched a military operation in Afghanistan, and although there has not been a direct exchange of fire with the Pakistani army, the air power of the two sides has already been contested.

At such a time, the United States does not have the spare forces to come up and support the battle at sea.

"Poindexter asked for air force support, and now our air force can't come up with extra fighters to support. However, the Air Force could promise to use B-52 bombers, equipped with Harpoon air-launched missiles or Tomahawk missiles, to carry out a saturation attack on Pakistan's naval formations. General Robert Jimmitt said.

The only way for the Air Force is to use the B-52! Right on the airbase on Diego Garcia Island, there are a large number of B-52 bombers on standby. An improved version of the Harpoon missile with a range of more than three hundred kilometers. It can be launched from a distance, and the air-launched Tomahawk missile, the United States has also been modified to have a specialized anti-ship version.

However, it was a strategic bomber!

No one continued to speak, and the scene was quiet. Only the second hand was ticking, and everyone had a question in their hearts, what good is it to do it with Pakistan now? How did the United States get to the current situation step by step?

No one blames Bush Sr. Now the elder Bush is not here at this important round table, and he has gone to Congress to be questioned by Congress, and if it is not good, Bush Sr. will step down in disgrace when he still has more than half a year left in office. Especially now, when the U.S. Navy has also suffered huge losses, Congress will not allow the United States to continue like this.

The U.S. economy is on the verge of collapse!

"Our country's economy has been declining in recent years, and now, our GDP is less than half of what it was in 90 years, and a large number of people in our country are unemployed and live on unemployment benefits from the government, but the government's unemployment benefits have been reduced by half compared with the original, and at the same time, the prices in our country have soared nearly tenfold! Many urban white-collar workers are now experiencing living difficulties, a large number of houses are in a crisis of supply interruption, and bad bank debts have increased greatly. One parliamentarian said: "All of this is because there is a problem with the basic policy of our country!" We don't want war, we want milk and bread! ”

Protests are taking place everywhere in the country, and Congress is now calling Bush Sr. over, apparently going through the process of impeaching him.

The House of Representatives acts as the prosecutor, while the Senate acts as an impeachment tribunal and exercises the power to adjudicate impeachment cases. The prosecution procedure in the House of Representatives is as follows: The Judiciary Committee of the House of Representatives votes to approve the articles of impeachment of the president, and the plenary session debates and votes, and if more than one-half of the members approve of impeachment, the bill is submitted to the Senate.

Bush Sr. needs to defend himself in the House of Representatives, convince these people not to go through the impeachment process, and tell them that he is doing what he needs to do for the sake of America.

"We don't want war, we love peace." Bush Sr. looked at these congressmen and said sternly: "However, this world will not be peaceful because of our love for peace, and peace will be fought by war!" Back then, in order to oppose the fascists, countless of our soldiers went to the battlefield for peace! I was shot down by a Japanese shell back then, and I was the only one in the crew who survived, but I have no regrets! Because, we know that we are fighting to give future generations a peaceful living environment! ”

The elder Bush's words are very contagious, he looked at those congressmen who were clamoring for peace, and those people represented the interests of the consortia other than the military industry, and I have to say that the current war has affected these consortia, and there is a reason why they oppose themselves.

"We are peace-loving, we were in the Cold War, we disintegrated our adversary, the USSR, as if our most powerful enemy of the United States had disappeared, and we could rest easy, but what? The terrorist attacks that have occurred in our country have taught us that war has never left us, and that there are still many countries in this world that hate us, and we must fight them! Bush Sr. said: "We must let our enemies know that if we oppose the United States, there is only one way out!" ”

Bush Sr.'s words are very inspiring, but unfortunately, all the old fritters are sitting below, the war has made the military-industrial giants rich, but what about the others? The domestic economy of the United States is about to go into shock, and what does the war have to do with itself? If you don't have money in your pocket, you can do nothing.

"Then why are we waging war against Pakistan? As far as I know, our navy has clashed with the Pakistani navy, and in Afghanistan, we are also supporting the Taliban government and opposing Pakistan. Another lawmaker said.

At this time, the news of the defeat in the Indian Ocean had not yet arrived, or Bush Sr. would not have fought with the congressmen here in a calm manner.

"Originally, I also thought so, Pakistan is our ally, and during the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, we also provided a large amount of Pakistani military supplies, including Pakistan's aircraft carriers, which we gave away free of charge." When Bush Sr. said this, he raised his voice even more: "But what about the result? We didn't expect that our allies had been playing tricks behind our backs to create stumbling blocks for us. ”

"Mr. President, when you speak, you have to talk about evidence." The lawmaker continued.

In the United States, the idea of equality is deeply ingrained. When the President of the United States was giving a speech, he had more than once encountered people throwing leather shoes from below. Now facing Bush Sr., there is no pressure on the congressman to ask questions.

"Of course there is evidence, we already have tangible evidence, Pakistan is in collusion with Iran! During the war in Afghanistan, we exported the Tomcat fighter to Pakistan, but we did not expect that Pakistan secretly sold the Tomcat fighter to Iran to earn a high profit! Pakistan also exports a lot of arms to Iran! This kind of behavior seriously damages the interests of our United States! ”

The United States has a pain, that is, Iran, and its hatred of Iran makes Americans subconsciously disgusted when they hear about countries that are mixed with Iran.

Grumman only secretly sold a small batch of parts to Iran, and as a result, Iran Gate broke out, and the final outcome was that the US Navy eliminated the powerful Tomcat fighters!

And Pakistan, which went even further, went even further and directly packaged the fighter planes sold by the United States to Pakistan at a low price to Iran!

"Now, Iran and Pakistan have united and fought against us together, we have no choice, only by defeating Iran, defeating Pakistan, and defeating all enemies who are against us, we the United States, will we win real peace, and peace is fought by war!" Bush Sr. continued.

Pakistan actually has a leg with Iran! All the congressmen were stunned, they were all infected by the angry atmosphere of Bush Sr., and seemed to have forgotten that when the Americans wanted to fight Iraq and Iran, Pakistan fully supported it!

"Now, although the domestic economy is sluggish, as long as we defeat Pakistan and control the Middle East, our economy will definitely regain its vitality." The voice of the elder Bush echoed throughout the hall.

Two hours later, the elder Bush, who was dragging his tired body, returned to the roundtable conference room and received the news of the naval defeat at the front, and his face turned pale.

The only thing that makes Bush Sr. confident in the current military strength of the United States is the navy, but he did not expect that in the contest at sea, Pakistan did not use such a killer weapon as anti-ship ballistic missiles, and the US Navy actually lost! (To be continued.) )
