Niu Chao's official residence sits on an inconspicuous hill in the presidential palace.

It is surrounded by lush trees, and there are no mountains or waters.

As the so-called president of the Dongyu Island authorities, this position made him feel depressed.

The mainland's preparations for war, the dispute over Heping Island, the pressure from Lixiongguo, and the entanglement of the populist party on the island made Niu Chao, the president, not suspiciously scorched by the flames.

The hostility between the two sides of the strait has been perpetual for half a century, and in the face of the oppression and integration of the two directions of civil and military on the opposite side, Niu Chao is very conflicted in his heart.

He knew how he was elected as president.

The populist party's presence on the island remains huge. In the last election, if it weren't for the corruption of the head of the populist party, Adou, his chances of coming to power would have been almost slim. Based on the fact that the populist party's tendency to independence on Dongyu Island endangers its global strategic interests, and because it does not want to fight with Woo Guo, he privately advocates the election of Niu Chao instead of Adou within the pro-Li Xiongguo group in Dongwoo Island. Although this is not in line with the values of the country, the election is just that. It's all a game of interest groups. Moreover, Li Xiongguo controls Dongyu's political ecology, and Niu Chao is just Li Xiongguo's voice in Dongyu. Niu Chao knows this very well.

But the mainland does not eat white rice either.

The fall of the previous president, Adou, has a lot to do with the fact that the intelligence channel was "intercepted" by a piece of information. The so-called "intercepted" is actually information sent to the door. The fact that Adou's son-in-law and the cabinet officials of the president's office embezzled tens of millions of dollars and deposited them in Swiss banks was exposed. The so-called "confidential secretary fee" was misappropriated to enrich their own pockets, and no matter how much the people of Dongyu Island supported independence, they could no longer support Adou, the president who could not be supported. It seems that an unclean ass is a bureaucratic dangerous * bag. Maybe one day it will be blown to pieces. Even if you're president.

Through the investigation of the Dongyu Intelligence Bureau, the greedy information about the then president Adou came from an international organization in the country of Rixiong. Digging deeper, it is actually related to the Overseas Intelligence Section of the National Security Bureau of the mainland. Li Dun, director of the Dongyu Intelligence Bureau, admired and feared the methods and grafting of his mainland counterparts this time. The mainland did not leave a single trace of the stars, so it borrowed the hand of Li Xiongguo to get Adou down. This kind of energy reminded Li Dun of the recent incident in which Major General Liu Deman, director of the Communications Department of the Ministry of National Defense, was successfully plotted against by the mainland and provided the mainland with a military optical fiber map arranged by Dongyu Island in cooperation with Li Xiongguo. As a result of the assessment of this incident, Dongyu Island suffered a direct economic loss of 170 million Li Xiong coins, while the indirect military and defense losses were incalculable.

The mainland hopes that the two sides of the strait will be stable, or at least not to make trouble for the mainland. Therefore, it is also expected that Niu Chao will be elected as the head of this region. And sincerely after Niu Chao was elected, he has spared no effort to develop economic and trade relations with Dongyu, even if it is greatly beneficial to Dongyu. Although the mainland's final plan has made the people on both sides of the strait no longer hostile, and the process of eventual peaceful reunification is very slow, it is in line with the current situation of the two sides of the strait and the ultimate strategic design of the Yu country. Therefore, the intensity and breadth of cross-strait economic and cultural exchanges have loosened the ice of political relations between the two sides. Exchanges of high-level visits by the ruling party have become the norm. Senior officials of the populist party also recently visited the mainland for the first time, which made people on both sides of the strait feel relieved. After all, the same bloodline, the same culture. Why can't you get along with your brother all the time? Doesn't this make Waiyi laugh shamefully?

It's just that more than a thousand ballistics* on the other side are aimed at Dongyu, but they have always made Niu Chao tremble.

The meaning of the mainland is very clear: the brothers can talk and toss as much as they want. It's just that if you change your surname and don't recognize your ancestors, I'm sorry, it's true! Where is there a brother in the door who doesn't recognize his father? Even if he leaves the house, he must not become a threat to the sect.

Niu Chao was listening to the report of Navy Commander Kong Zhi.

"President, the mainland side is in full swing preparing for war, the naval ships of the national countries are in formation, and the aircraft carrier formation of the Lixiong country is also in place. The atmosphere of war is very strong, but we Dongyu do not move, and the officers and men are restless. There is evidence that the military is opposed to the government's disposition of friction with countries on the front line. ”

How could Niu Chao not know about the restlessness in the army?

It's just that the sovereignty dispute of Heping Island, in peacetime, Dongyu can make a show, drive a few warships, escort the escort, and the president will make a statement such as "resolutely defend" to appease the people. But when the real guns are live and the bayonets are red, it is not a situation where Dongwoo can shout in a high-profile manner.

A week ago, Li Xiongguo sent a special envoy to Dongyu secretly to meet Niu Chao.

The special envoy of the country of Li Xiong said: "Your Excellency, the government of the country of Li Xiong has taken a position of supporting the country of peace on the dispute between Yu and the country of Peace. President Lee Woong has asked me to convey to Your Excellency not to join forces with the mainland army to flank the Ball Country in the dispute between Yu and the Ball Country over the Peace Island. We don't allow Dongwoo to send a single soldier to participate in this war. We believe that such a big move by the mainland and the whole country to prepare for the war is not just aimed at the global countries, but is an attempt to seek Dongyu by taking advantage of the dispute over Peace Island. Your Excellency the President, Dongyu's security has always been within the scope of the obligations of the Lixiong Kingdom, and in the past few decades, without the military support of the Lixiong Kingdom, the mainland must have already invaded Dongyu. Where are you looking for the presidency? The international community has long been vigilant against the military threat to Yu. In recent years, the national power of Yu has been on the rise, and the military's hardline stance has posed a threat to the security of the surrounding countries. Although Dongyu has warm economic and trade exchanges with the mainland, and the people on both sides of the strait are relaxed, these are all allowed by Lixiong and we are happy to see them come to fruition. However, Your Excellency, Dongwoo's values are different from those of the mainland. The people of Dongwoo are unwilling to live in an authoritarian and corrupt environment. Our alliance has always been based on universal values. Dongyu, the land of projectiles, if the * on the other side flies, it will be a sea of fire in an instant. Li Xiongguo will not let this happen. Therefore, you only need to be vigilant and do not participate in the fighting. ”

This makes Niu Chao very difficult.

In his heart, Niu Chao hated the ball country's aggressive attempt to seize the island. When Niu Chao was still a hot-blooded youth, he once led the youth league to the streets at the expense of imprisonment to oppose the country's idea of Peace Island. Peace Island was originally an island affiliated with Dongyu, and this view has been adhered to for half a century. Today, I want to get rid of my face and see the truth, but I was "instructed" not to act rashly. Niu Chao was aggrieved but couldn't attack. He knew very well that Li Xiongguo was really going to take the mainland this time. If it's for Dongwoo, it's nothing. But fighting for Peace Island with the ball country, Dongyu stood aside and stood still, watching the mainland fight with the ball country, doesn't this make the foreigners despise Dongyu? How can we face it in front of our ancestors?

Difficult! Difficult! Difficult!

Damn the ball country!
