Ge Tianxing asked for leave and was notified of the entire Miracle Association by the Tianping Organization. It is natural to ask for leave, but it is against human nature not to ask for leave. But if you don't return within the time limit, you will inevitably have to clear the property recorded in the Miracle Society.

Most of the people who have awakened the ability in Qiandi do not have any objections to this kind of treatment, on the contrary, they are very much in favor of it. Because of these people who have awakened the ability of Qiandi, they have born a native consciousness that is willing to maintain the miracle organization. From the perspective of the Miracle Association, it is natural to believe that "your own organization is not a kiln, you can come when you want, and you can leave when you want." In addition, supplementary regulations were quickly adopted,—— that is, leave may only be taken in non-wartime periods, and in wartime leave, leave is not allowed to be granted.

Of course, the new regulations have made some capable people hesitate and dissatisfied, but there are still many young capable people who are determined to do so in the local area.

The reason for this disagreement is the difference between the thinking of two types of people, who are still concerned about the freedom of the world, and those who are bent on rising in a fixed base area.

Ge Tianxing went back with hesitation. Yet the world continues to roll toward chaos.

After the raid in the Pacific, the Republic of California quickly initiated the declaration of war, and although the declaration of war did not clearly specify who the enemy was, the whole country issued a mobilization order, which was of course accompanied by a new economic policy. This will stimulate the market throughout the former American region. This caused an economic revelry in the former American region. The whole of America did not realize where California's military mobilization was going to be.

Before describing the military operations in California, let me briefly describe the current economic and political situation in the United States at this time.

The United States, China, Russia, such large countries will inevitably face uneven development in various regions in the course of economic construction in peacetime. Taking China as an example, in the opening of the global market, the coastal areas can import iron ore, coal mines, and agricultural products from all over the world, so the coastal areas have no material demand for the interior.

From the perspective of the state, in order to maintain the balance of the whole country, it is necessary to let the coastal subsidize the inland and build infrastructure in the inland on a large scale, although the number of roads built in the inland rural areas will not be of much use to the economy of the coastal areas. But the power to maintain the state with a foreign war must be built. This is because in peacetime the inland is useless to the coastal areas, but in wartime, the infrastructure and resources in the inland are the war potential, and they are the confidence to be able to wield the big stick to "reason."

However, the truth of the country's rights and interests is very easy to be challenged by the egoism of local forces. Ninety years ago, the reason for the division of the United States was the intransigence of the interests of the various regions. Developed regions such as California do not subsidize other underdeveloped regions. These capitalists are not willing to sell their products to their backward provinces at a lower price than the international price, nor are they willing to buy raw materials from the backward provinces at high prices.

In terms of the public opinion controlled by the capitalists of those years, why should we (the natives in the developed areas) support the money we make in the poor places. We can't afford federal exploitation, we want independence. And the sage prime minister also intervened. In the end, it economically tore apart the developed regions of the United States and the landlocked underdeveloped regions. And for so many years, we have strictly used military force to stabilize the stability of the Pacific Ocean and ensure the prosperity of coastal areas such as Galiwelfare. It further convinced Californians that they could not be landlocked in this place.

But with the conflict in the Pacific, the global trade chain is facing the threat of war, and the prices of oil, as well as various minerals, which are in the hands of those underdeveloped states, have begun to rise. There is no reason why the price of domestic raw materials is higher than that of the international market. When the price of raw materials in the international market is higher than that in the domestic supply market, there is no reason for the coastal to buy inland minerals, which is a reason to subsidize the inland.

On an economic level, as California began to demand the hinterland, there was a unified economic base for all.

And politically, and now in power, it is not a pure capitalist. And the superpowers mixed with the Hanqi group entered the upper level. In the past two years, the new rulers of the California Welfare District have made large-scale loans to the poor areas that had once been ignored. Invested in road construction and signed a lot of contracts that seemed to people at the time to be supplied at prices far beyond the international market price. Ensure a stable domestic raw material supply chain. Let the mines in these areas, as well as the primary processing plants, be opened again.

In the past two years, the Americas have convened several conferences of the League of Americas (similar to the European Union), at which the concept of the American Federation has been mentioned many times, and the concept of peaceful reunification has been preached in American public opinion for more than two years. And in the last four months ago at the General Assembly of the Union of the Americas. California's representative Huang Shengqi made an impassioned speech: "Ladies and gentlemen, 90 years later, under the banner of freedom, we have once again put aside our differences. This time we will form an unbreakable alliance. The popularity of Huang Shengqi's speech, in the eyes of Xie Xiao, a time-traveler, is comparable to Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" on another timeline

With a foundation for reunification in the economy, politics, and public opinion, can we really achieve peaceful reunification? The answer is no, and all these conditions are only conducive to reducing the resistance to military reunification.

True reunification does not depend on the handshake of the upper strata, but on the choice of sides between the middle and lower strata in the war.

So the war began, and on August 7, 2044, no one expected it, the California region launched a war in the name of unification. The suddenness of the war was comparable to the blitzkrieg attack on Poland during World War II.

On the west coast of the United States, stratofortresses take off from airfields. This was the case when the plane dropped nearly a million tons of incendiary # bombs on the Red Sun Empire during World War II. Over the course of a hundred years, it has undergone many modernizations and is still not decommissioned. Because it is still a very efficient means of transport at the moment. And there is no other model that can replace it in terms of transportation cost performance.

One hundred years ago, the plane arrived in Tokyo with a large number of incendiary grenades, and a hundred years later, in the cabin of the plane, a two-meter-tall metal mechanical soldier was on its metal safety rack.

This unit is codenamed Cyborg and is taken from characters from the Marvel universe. Even after the collapse of the United States, Marvel productions still appeared in Hollywood in the Republic of California. became part of the culture. Therefore, in reality, the military also uses cultural symbols in naming these troops

Metal electrodes were pierced into the muscles of the soldiers' torsos, and the electrodes were fitted with all-metal power armor. In the entire armor installation, there are life system abilities, mechanical system operation system abilities, and energy system abilities in the process, and each steel bone member is a bronze ability, and when injecting the transition potion, they can control the explosion of the super energy field more freely for another forty minutes. On their armor, there is a special power module created by a certain energy ability as an energy core.

Outwardly, these people are just like the comic steel bones, a humanoid mechanical tank weighing a ton. Of course, the most important thing is that this unit is a mass-produced unit, as long as it can provide high-energy blocks on a large scale and related parts for maintenance, this type of soldier can be recruited in large numbers. In these three years, the number grew to 13,000.

In the underground base of the Hanqi Group, in this base, the core personnel of the Hanqi Group are looking at the entire map of the United States. Airplanes have already arrived over various cities. The airdrop also began. It was a military coup. And at the time of the military coup planning, Huang Qisheng was still having friendly interest talks with various forces. It seems that there was no coup d'état at all.

No one in the group will be naïve enough to think that economic action alone can integrate the United States of America. Give economic benefits to the states, and the groups in the states will subconsciously want more economic benefits. Only with a military stick to combine. Only then can we set up the rules that have the final say in the distribution of economic benefits. The preparations for today's military operation can be traced back to the time when the United States had just broken up, and it is only in recent years that the Hamaki group has seen the dawn of success

In this military operation, the Hanqi group took 67 cities in the United States. The message came from the big screen that they acted very successfully. Groups of soldiers instilled in Huang Qisheng with American heroism landed on the streets of the city in controllable gliding parachutes. In groups of twenty, they rushed towards the key departments of the various cities. Took control of government departments, power plants. Waterworks and gas plants, whole

Once these lifelines are controlled, in the short term, there is simply no way to gather effective counterattack forces in the city, which is like a needle piercing the nerve center of a strong man, and all the actions of a strong man will be stiff.

###

On this night, all the cities that were hit were noisy. The military and police drove the loading trucks and the armed men who fell from the sky engaged in a fierce exchange of fire in the city. But the soldiers who were made of these metals, with the help of infrared equipment, accurately shot the head. The cops quickly fell into a meltdown.

This group of soldiers, in the sound of clanging metal, walked into the government department. Then the television station was controlled. A city-wide curfew was imposed.

The next day, before the forces in the city could figure out how to counterattack these freedom rebels. More troops under the American flag arrived, and the soldiers of the Republic of California quickly arrived in these cities, which were held by the Steel-Bone Corps.

Jeeps with blue stripes and white stars patrol the city. The soldiers didn't face a fight, all they did was take the cheers of the people, throw chocolates into the crowd, and of course many of them followed the example of General Patton and peed in the streets.

Of course, these soldiers are here to maintain law and order. However, it is ironic. During this period of occupation, the crime rate of these soldiers was quite high, especially against women.

The chaos is over, and when the forces can break the situation, the various forces will also do some counterattack planning, when thousands of troops enter the city. Very few people make unrealistic plans.

Sixty-seven large cities were controlled, and the former United States had been consolidated under the control of the Hanqi Group, integrating one-third of the original United States, while the rest of the regions had ambiguous attitudes. The reason for the ambiguous attitude, rather than the direct tilt towards the newly formed Confederation, is because the West Coast has turned on red alert.

California's lightning expansion shook the world, and of course, it was also unexpected by all parties, and it is not a new logic that the outside must be settled first. Political groups sometimes go so far as to cooperate with foreign enemies for the sake of internal security. Understanding California's actions does not imply condoning California's actions.

The Republic of Florida, as well as the Republic of New York, issued harsh words denouncing the fall of freedom in the New World. Demons breed in the New World. And the European side also condemned it.

The flames of war are finally beginning to stretch around the world.
