Chapter 267: Far-reaching
Unlike the atmosphere of spring breeze and rain in China, the lobby of the Houston Space Center in the United States is full of anxiety and uneasiness. The reason for the www.biquge.info is not complicated, the former does not have the will to dominate the world, and seems to be content to become a regional power in Asia.
The United States, which has been the hegemon of the planet since the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991 and does not want to be squeezed out, even if the enemy is an alien.
NASA Administrator Charles Brown. With a gloomy face, Bolden looked at a report in his hand, and reprimanded his subordinates around him: "You guys have given a solution to the problem, I don't want to see a simple list of facts, now fools can see that aliens are going to land on the moon." The question is, where will the great United States go when the aliens are genuinely present! ”
It is no wonder that the director of the bureau is angry, and the new president of the White House, Trump, called just now, demanding that the director must submit a proposal in the shortest possible time to maintain the hegemony of the United States.
Damn big-mouthed president! Charles felt like a dog on the day, and the grievances in his heart couldn't be described, this was completely beyond his ability, okay? This is an alien that can build a spaceship several kilometers long, and the current level of technology on Earth is still far from good.
Such anger could not be vented to the president, Charles had to vent to his subordinates, and after pouring out the grievances in his heart, Charles felt a lot better.
"I'm sorry, but I don't think there's any way the United States can stop aliens from landing on the moon." Among the independent-minded Americans, there were a lot of thorns, and there were immediately refuted by the chief.
Charles glared at him and said angrily, "Mark, if you don't want to do it, let me leave, or shut up for me!" ”
The director who was on the fire didn't care about the usual unspoken rules at all, and directly threatened him. In normal times, Charles would probably receive a summons from the court because of this move, but at this time he doesn't care about this anymore, aliens have appeared, and the summons is a fart!
Mark was a little stunned, and looked at his colleague for help, but he got helpless eyes. Everyone could see that the director was in a state of rage as if he had taken the wrong medicine, and it was better not to provoke him.
Mark, who didn't leave, stood in place with a dead face. Now the situation is not good, it is not easy to find a good job, he does not want to lose his job, and there is a mortgage and car loan waiting for him.
The assistant came up, handed over the phone, and whispered, "The president's phone." ”
Charles took the phone, the gloom on his face disappeared immediately as if he had met the sun, and was replaced by a courteous smile, as if the president was standing in front of him: "Sir, what can I do for you?" ”
"I'm still waiting for your advice, and many senators need professional judgment to make up their minds. I need your assurance. The voice coming out of the mobile phone revealed a bit of madness.
Charles seemed to think of something, and his voice trembled: "President, what are you going to do?" ”
"Hehe, didn't you guess it, that is, to take out this alien spaceship and bring the United States back to the top. As long as it is near the earth, the glory of the United States will not be what it used to be, and no other country will accept the American ruling. ”
Boom! Charles seemed to hear his heart beating violently, and the whole person stood stupidly, with a surprised expression on his face. Such an action surprised the subordinates around them, but they did not dare to ask, this was a call from the president, and they might be in trouble if they knew it.
Director Charles plucked up his courage and shouted, "No! This cannot be done. Not only will it not solve the problem, but it will also push the United States off the cliff, which is a completely suicidal move. ”
"If nothing is done, the United States will still slide into the abyss. Since the result is the same, what is the difference between a little earlier and a little later. That's what you suggested, I'm disappointed, it looks like NASA will soon have a new director. The president hung up.
White House
The new president, known for his big mouth, threw away his mobile phone and said to more than a dozen veteran senators around him: "Let's continue the previous topic, everyone agrees to launch an attack on the so-called alien spacecraft, right?" Even without Charles' endorsement, we can find others, and that's not a problem at all, it depends on your determination. ”
Are Rump and other politically vetted fritters crazy? No, if they are really crazy, they will not be able to sit in the current high position at all, but they will see it very thoroughly. Knowing that without the support of force, the US economy will be squeezed out of half of its water, and that is when the end comes.
Now Americans live the best standard of living on the planet, relying entirely on the strength of the military industry, maintaining a strong dollar status, and shearing the wool of the world. When this pillar is broken by aliens, all kinds of problems hidden by the ornate robe will erupt together, sending the United States into the abyss.
"Voting begins, those who agree to attack the alien spacecraft please raise their hands." Tremp asked slightly nervously.
The veteran senators here are able to influence the majority of the senators, and if they make a decision, it is equivalent to a decision in the Senate. If you add him as the president, you can basically get nine out of ten.
Whew, everyone raised their hands.
"I'm old, but I'm not old, and I know that this is the most dangerous time for the United States since World War II. Thinking about how we had defeated the ferocious Axis powers, I was prepared to show the courage I inherited from my father. An old man with gray hair and beard said firmly.
"Yes, this alien spaceship must have been damaged from the Indian Ocean from the Indian Ocean, otherwise it could completely suppress the Earth and occupy all the resources and minerals. There is no need to go to the desolate moon at all, it must be like this! "It's like cheering himself up," said a senator in his forties.
"Am I the only one who saw the report? An island off the coast of Ceylon disappeared, and soon an alien spaceship appeared, and I think the two may have been connected before. The ship had been dormant for too long, and it was in dire need of a lot of supplies to repair it, and this was the weakest time, and now the attack would have the greatest effect. ”
After everyone spoke, everyone felt that their confidence was sufficient, and the dangers that had been in the past were probably imaginary, but they did not exist in reality.
Tranpe's eyes froze, and he dialed the Pentagon and gave the order to launch a nuclear bomb.
With the consent of Congress and the president, the Pentagon, despite feeling that it was somewhat inappropriate, fired 100 nuclear bombs with a yield of two million tons at the Rainbow Bay area of the moon.
