Chapter 288: The President's Visit
The fact that the joint exercise of the three countries was actually a trap for the celestials was leaked out on the Internet, but what was even more shocking was that the three countries jointly dispatched a total of nearly 1,000 MS, and it still failed to suppress the celestials in absolute numbers.
After the losses of the Three Kingdoms Alliance were leaked out, it caused a huge sensation around the world, with more than 900 MSs, and the number of remaining intact bodies was less than 300, which once again subverted the world's perception of heaven and man.
All of a sudden, more conflicts in the Third World have calmed down, and there are no armed conflicts and terrorist attacks anywhere in the world.
Even the world's top and most powerful three countries are not opponents of heaven and man, and at this time, where will anyone risk the intervention of heaven and man to develop some armed conflicts, for a while, all news organizations around the world broadcast the most, where there is a truce agreement, in addition to all kinds of talk shows.
As the first military commander of Japan's special economic zone, Xiao Ran also received an invitation for an interview. However, this invitation was rejected by Xiao Ran, because there was a more important matter waiting for him to deal with.
On the second day of the complete failure of the three-nation alliance exercise due to the intervention of the heavenly people, the president of UNION himself contacted Xiao Ran by video phone and told Xiao Ran that he would go to the Japanese Special Economic Zone in person in the near future.
However, after learning the news that Colonel Jett had inquired about, Homer . Billy seems to have been punished for his failure to command, and was temporarily deprived of Homer by the other two countries. Billy's rights to all the face, to the point where there is no Homer. Knowing any changes in Billy's military position, and knowing this, coupled with what the president said, Xiao Ran also speculated on an outcome that seemed a little unlikely.
That is to let him take over again as the military commander of the combined army of the three countries. And it's a completely different army than before.
When the president arrived in Japan, he did not make a big fanfare, but covered up his whereabouts and came directly, and the plane landed in Xiao Ran's headquarters, when Xiao Ran received the news that His Excellency the President was about to arrive. He immediately took all the senior officers of the entire headquarters to the tarmac to wait.
Not long after an inconspicuous plane stopped on the tarmac, the president, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, also appeared in front of Xiao Ran.
"Salute!" Xiao Ran shouted, and everyone raised their right hands towards His Excellency the President, watching the President slowly walk off the plane until he walked in front of Xiao Ran. He put his hand down.
"General Xiao, although we often have video calls, I haven't seen you for a long time." His Excellency the President didn't seem to be worried about the huge losses caused by the defeat of the Three Kingdoms Alliance, with a relaxed smile on his face, and patted Xiao Ran on the shoulder.
"It's been a long time since I've seen you, Your Excellency." Xiao Ran also replied with a smile, but still asked strangely: "Your Excellency President, is there anything important that I need to deal with when you come here in person this time?" ”
"That's right." The president nodded, looked around and said, "This is not the place to talk, go to your office and talk." ”
"Hmm." Xiao Ran nodded in response. After bringing the president into his office, Xiao Ran also instructed Nalo and Hixa to prepare tea and research and development materials for the new MS, and then walked into the office alone.
Xiao Ran's office is one of the most important places in a headquarters, and it is also the place where the military chief of the entire region is located, even the president needs to abide by the corresponding rules, the president's power is great, but at least in this office he is not the master, Xiao Ran did not come in, he stood in the middle of the office. It wasn't until Xiao Ran stretched out his hand that His Excellency the President sat on the sofa in the office.
"You may be seated."
After both of them sat down, His Excellency the President nodded to the entourage behind him, only to see the entourage take out a thick document file and hand it to Xiao Ran. The president also said, "You go through all this stuff first." ”
Xiao Ran opened the document bag with a puzzled attitude, took out the document and looked at it carefully, the first part of the document is all the preparations, plans, and corresponding responsible persons arranged for this joint operation of the three countries, and the specific number of MS. There are the size of the battery positions, and even the number of participants is detailed to the single digits.
There are also various plans originally arranged at that time, coping methods, and expected goals to be achieved, but in the end, they were completely defeated, and then there were listed loss items and so on.
Xiao Ran was not interested in the first part of the document, but after reading it carefully, after seeing the second document, he suddenly raised his head in shock: "Your Excellency President, what is this?" ”
His Excellency the President sighed slightly: "Because of the huge losses caused by this time, as well as the inability to deal with the celestials, as well as the assessment of the danger of the celestials in the future, our three kingdoms finally decided to truly unite and become a unified force. ”
Xiao Ran was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the header of the document in his hand: UNION, the People's Revolutionary Federation, and the AEU Three-State Integration Plan.
This plan should only be a rough plan, but it also explains many things, such as the dispersion and integration of powers, the party parliament that will govern in the future, the arrangement of military divisions, the integration of resources and technology, etc., covering almost all aspects, and finally it is proposed that a real response team will be established.
From the point of view of the plan, the power of this team will be great, and the people who join this team can ignore the orders of everyone except the military commander of this team, in order to have a unified command and management, and have the right to choose their own personnel, the newly integrated Earth Federation will provide strong support for this team in all aspects, funds, manpower, materials, MS, technology, etc.
Moreover, this team also has the right to mobilize the military forces of individual divisions, and this right alone is enough to make many people red-eyed.
Xiao Ran put the document on the table after reading it, and the time, it was almost forty minutes after His Excellency the President walked into this office, perhaps too preoccupied, Hiksa and Nalo did not find out when Xiao Ran came in, and the president was also holding a tablet at this time to look at the development technology of the new MS with great interest.
It wasn't until Xiao Ran put the document down that the president looked up at Xiao Ran and asked, "What do you think about this?" ”
Xiao Ran groaned and said: "It is a good thing that the three countries can unite, it can play a very good role in the stability and peace of the whole world, and militarily it can be more unified command without distinguishing between you and me, and the resources will also be balanced, which will be more beneficial than disadvantageous for people's livelihood." ”
"But the last team to hear about it, will it have too much power?" Xiao Ran frowned and looked at the president and said.
"The power is a little bigger, but only in this way can we really give full play to the combat effectiveness of this team." The president nodded and said, "Independent command, others can't intervene in order to gather strength, and only in this way can we deal with the threat brought to this world by heaven and man." ”
Xiao Ran shook his head, and didn't say anything anymore, but asked, "So His Excellency the President came here in person today, and it is also related to this matter?" ”
"Homer. Lieutenant General Billy was the best person to command this force, and he was impeccable in terms of experience, ability, and military knowledge of the three countries. But because of this defeat, the other two countries lost trust in him. The president shook his head helplessly, but he didn't want to hide Xiao Ran and say something good, but said generously: "And after selection, your file also appeared on my desk again." ”
"Compared to other candidates, you are younger, and you also have extremely superior abilities, and you will not be immobile because of rigid thinking, maybe there is a lack of experience, but against the celestials, none of us have experience. And you also have the advantage that others don't, and that is that behind you, there are several huge families supporting you. ”
The president looked at Xiao Ran with a smile and said, "So I'm going to recommend you to be the chief officer of this team." ”
Xiao Ran was really stunned after hearing what the president said, he never thought of serving as the commander of this kind of unit, once he did, it would be a trouble, where would he have time to drive the Secret Angel Gundam to fight, and whether he could make achievements or not, it was not a good thing for him, how could this kind of thing fall on his head.
"Huh...... Hehe. Xiao Ran smiled a little at a loss, but in the president's opinion, this was clearly caused by Xiao Ran being too happy, taking a deep breath, Xiao Ran finally nodded, compared to the disadvantages, the benefits of being the chief officer of this team will naturally be more, and he has no reason to refuse this big pie that fell from the sky.
"I am very willing to be the chief officer of this team, and I am very grateful to His Excellency the President for his favor." After Xiao Ran solemnly finished his words of thanks to His Excellency the President, he asked with some curiosity: "But will the other two countries really want this team to be headed by someone from our country?" ”
His Excellency the President glanced at Xiao Ran with a meaningful smile: "Soon, there will be no difference between UNION, the Human Revolutionary Federation and the AEU in this world. ”
Xiao Ran showed a hint of understanding in his eyes, and nodded slightly. (To be continued.) )
