Chapter 439: Carter's Attitude Changes
White House.
President Carter was impatient, he was in the conference room, walking back and forth, and he hadn't been so impatient since his first day as president.
President Carter did not agree to this at all, and did they not know how much of a chain reaction and how serious the conflict would be caused by the dispatch of armed forces to rescue the hostages?
They actually dispatched a whole crew of transport planes, several hundred people, to the capital of the BS country, what a problem this will bring to themselves!
However, Carter has no choice, when these personnel have already gone to BS country, he can't hold back, as the president of the United States, he wants to protect the safety of the American people, but also protect the safety of the army, and he can't drag his feet.
Therefore, he could only give an order for the army to fully assist.
"If they can come back, court-martial!" Carter couldn't bear it anymore and said to his men.
It would be difficult to get me court-martialed and sentence them to a few years in prison, after all, they want to influence the political direction of the country, which is simply terrible.
And as the president of the United States and the leader of all the military forces of the United States, he cannot tolerate such a thing under his nose.
When you are what you are? Is it air?
"They are a Vietnam Veterans organization." Camelot on the side couldn't help but say: "They are no longer soldiers, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to use a military court to try them, right?" ”
"Don't think I don't know." Carter continued to be angry: "They were still soldiers a few hours ago, and as long as their discharge process is not completed, they are still soldiers, and the army dares to do this kind of thing behind my back, is the army going to rebel?" ”
Carter was angry.
The military of any country can rebel and rebel, but the United States is different.
The history of the United States is not long, only a few hundred years, since the founding of the United States, freedom and democracy are their creed, and the military will never interfere in politics, which is also an iron law.
For example, the command of the army is the president's, and the commanders at the lower levels must not disobey the president's orders, and at the same time, the president is elected by the whole country, and after the presidential handover, the army will listen to the new president, and during the general election, the army will not do anything to influence the general election, but only provide protection.
In this way, unrest in the army was absolutely prevented.
But now, he has set such a bad precedent, and he will never let it go.
"Even if they have retired and stole military aircraft, this is a serious crime, prosecute them!" Carter continued.
Carter's anger is multifaceted, and at the same time, only by expressing his anger can he vent his dissatisfaction and calm his mood, and he is now in chaos.
Time is still passing little by little.
"The transport plane has landed in the capital of the BS country."
"Vietnam veterans have been dispatched."
"They returned to the transport plane."
"Take off, take off!"
One by one, the news came slowly, and every time he heard a piece of news, Carter's heart had to be entangled for a while, because there were still many dangers waiting for them in the future.
"Come back, they've flown over Turkey!"
When he heard the news, Carter felt a large stone in his chest and hit the ground with a bang.
Coming back?
It's that simple, back?
This group of so-called Vietnam veterans actually succeeded in rescuing the hostages?
At this time, Carter's inner change was quite strong, he didn't expect that this operation would be successful, just now, his mind was full of what to do if the action failed.
The number of hostages will soar further, and it will be even more troublesome to rescue, and if the people are accidentally injured there, the other side will be dissatisfied, and these Vietnam veterans may be killed.
At that time, domestic public opinion will definitely condemn BS country one-sidedly, and at that time, even if Carter doesn't want to do it, it will definitely go to war.
Carter thought about all kinds of terrible situations, he just didn't think, what if it succeeded?
In this sense, Carter was an out-and-out pessimist, and he did not think that the troops would succeed in this matter, or that in this case, he did not think of using the army at all.
Something that can be negotiated and settled, can't everyone sit down and discuss? Why do it?
Carter didn't think about using the army, he didn't think he could succeed, and now he actually succeeded?
Carter's brain was still blank, and at this time, Camelot was already rejoicing: "If it succeeds, I know they will succeed, God forbid, our hostages, finally safe!" ”
Camelot was very pleased.
You know, the army has been infamous for many years, and the Vietnam War has completely stinked the reputation of the army, and the people do not blame the top brass of the White House who made the war decision, but point the finger at the army, so that the army cannot raise its head.
Later, I survived the Vietnam War, came out of Hokkaido, and lost my land again, although it was caused by the president's pacifist spirit, but in the eyes of the people, it was still the army's inadequacy.
And this time, finally, the army can raise its eyebrows.
The army has planned a perfect rescue operation and completed this feat, and the army armed with taxpayers' money is to rescue taxpayers at a critical time!
"Succeeded? And that succeeded? Carter muttered in his mouth, still not believing.
"President, this is a great opportunity!" Warren on the side, his face was also extremely excited: "President, at this time, it's time for you to make a televised speech, convey this good news to the people of the whole country, we have dispatched the army, and finally rescued our hostages, this news will definitely inspire the whole country, and your support rate will soar." ”
Carter knew that his approval rating was already low, and now, since this rescue was successful, he should definitely take advantage of this opportunity.
Just now, the so-called Vietnam veterans who were still cursing this sortie and wanted to send them all to court-martial, but in the blink of an eye, everyone ignored the fact that these people had retired from the military and tacitly did it for the army.
If it's a Vietnam veteran, a civil organization, where will the face of the U.S. government go? What the President of the United States couldn't solve, was solved by a group of Vietnam War veterans?
"Yes, that's right, I want to express this good news to the people of the whole country, all the people who went out this time are all heroes of the United States, I want to hold a grand welcome banquet for them at the White House, and I want the whole country and the whole world to know their names!" Carter said, "Prepare me for a televised speech right now." ”
