White House, eight a.m. US time, Obama stayed up all night. He has not yet told other dignitaries and lawmakers about the downing of the reconnaissance plane last night, and Obama is also worried that if this bombshell is dropped, these people will probably lose their minds quickly, and if it is beyond his control, it will be a little bad.

When everyone came to the conference room, Obama took the lead in saying good morning to everyone, so that everyone vaguely felt that something was wrong, but they couldn't say what was wrong, Obama's expression was very decadent, as if there were many grievances hidden in his heart.

"Your Excellency." The Minister of Defense asked tentatively, "Is something wrong?" ”

Obama smiled bitterly and did not answer his question, but asked rhetorically: "Ladies and gentlemen, everyone knows the situation in the United States now, and I have a question for you, if one day, our homeland is attacked, and we are powerless to resist, what should we do?" ”

"How is that possible?" A parliamentarian blurted out: "There is no country in this world that can stand shoulder to shoulder with us, in terms of military strength, we are the most powerful country in the world, and for more than a hundred years, we have never considered the issue of an attack on our homeland, is this possible?" ”

"Stop kidding yourself." Obama interrupted him in an unkind tone, saying: "If you still think that we are a military power, then please find a way to organize a naval team for us, I don't have high requirements, I can equip an aircraft carrier fleet." ”

"This," said the councillor smugly, "I can't help but have so many technicians and pilots now." ”

Obama gave him a cold look, and then said: "Ladies and gentlemen, we have to face this problem now, and it is not impossible for the United States to be attacked on its homeland, and I will tell you a very unfortunate news that our Dawn Goddess reconnaissance plane was shot down by an anti-aircraft missile near Shanghai, China, yesterday. ”

"What" Everyone was stunned, and the secretary of state blurted out: "Is that the reconnaissance plane that claims to never be shot down -- the Goddess of Dawn?" ”

Obama nodded and said with some shame: "Yes, we always thought that except for the Russian S-500, no anti-aircraft missile could shoot down the Dawn Goddess, but we made a serious mistake, that is, to underestimate the military power of the Chinese too much, it seems that the Chinese's prevention and control technology is already very advanced, and even in the last days, it has not been weakened at all." ”

"So," the secretary of state hesitated for a moment and said, "The weapons and materials at our base in Guam should have been looted by the Chinese, right?" ”

"Quite possibly." Obama did not hide it and said: "The aerial photographs of North Korea, South Korea and Yuben have been analyzed, they do not have our weapons and materials, and the Chinese are so mysterious that they even shot down our reconnaissance plane without even giving warning, I am afraid that there must be a ghost in their hearts, so we have enough reason to believe that all our weapons in Guam have fallen into the hands of the Chinese." ”

"So what are we going to do?" The defense minister sighed and said, "If we annoy the Chinese, they can send our fighters over us and bomb us within 24 hours." ”

A parliamentarian said with a sad face: "This is over, the Chinese have been grudging against us for a long time, and now they are so much stronger than us, they will definitely retaliate, they know that we are now in Washington, we can't prevent them, Your Excellency the President, let's apply to the British for exile!" ”

"What?" Obama frowned and scolded: "You asked me to go to England to set up a political axe in exile? What about our people? What about our land and resources? ”

"Then let's get out of Washington for safety." The Washington, D.C. official said, "We're leaving Washington, looking for a safer city, and we're moving all of our people there." ”

"Impossible." The Secretary of Defense said coldly: "We are already very short of supplies now, and it is not easy to stabilize Washington, if we evacuate Washington at this time and go to a new city, this way will require a lot of supplies and is very dangerous." ”

"Let's talk to the Chinese." The secretary of state saw that everyone was full of sorrow, so he spoke: "I think the Chinese should not take the initiative to attack us, if you have studied Chinese history, it is not difficult to see, in fact, from ancient times to the present, the Chinese rarely take the initiative to provoke wars, most of them are foreign countries attacking and provoking them, and what the Chinese are better at is civil war and internal fighting, in addition, it is to resist foreign enemy aggression, and rarely invade others, this nation should still be very peace-loving, besides, now is a special period, The energy of the Chinese must be focused on development. ”

Obama said lightly: "Since the Chinese have shot down our reconnaissance plane, then I think there is nothing to hide, I will contact the Chinese political axe, many things still have to be talked to them face to face, if you can let me go to the best." ”

"Otherwise, I'll go." The secretary of state said: "I went to this country with my husband in '98, which is somewhat familiar, plus I am a woman, I will be relatively soft, and many things can be better negotiated with them, after all, the United States is now at a low point, and it should show weakness to the Chinese to a certain extent." ”

The defense minister said: "Now it is not a question of which of you is more suitable to go, but whether the Chinese will let you go, and if the Chinese do not take the United States in their eyes at all, then they will not bother to talk to us about any issues." ”

"I'm going to get in touch with the Chinese government to see if they agree with my visit to China." The secretary of state stood up, and without saying a word, he immediately asked his secretary to draft for himself, and Obama did not block it, after all, he knew in his heart, the Chinese did not have a good impression of him, and if Secretary of State Hillary Clinton could open up the situation, it would be a good way

Hillary's request for a visit was passed to Patton, and Chairman Han no longer paid attention to this kind of thing, and the attitude he showed during this period of time was no longer that of a principal, but gradually retreated behind the scenes to give advice to Patton.

In Xie Tian's view, he has absolutely no interest in provoking a war with the Americans, but the Americans have always been arrogant, often because you don't want to quarrel with him, but he takes the initiative to trouble you, just like the goddess of dawn who has just been shot down by the army with a missile, it is enough to see the arrogance of the Americans, who dare to fly the plane into China's airspace without knowing the details of China now, and the arrogance is beyond the limit.

At present, the people in the Provisional Military Commission are already a little dissatisfied with Obama, and now China and the United States are also in turn, and China's strength has surpassed the United States by a large margin, in this case, who will take Obama in his eyes? He wants to visit, naturally no one wants him to come, and the United States has now simply changed its routine and asked Hillary Clinton to send a diplomatic letter requesting a visit to China, but even Hillary could not let her enter China, so Xie Tian ordered a refusal almost without consideration, and instructed diplomats that all requests for visits by Americans could be directly rejected without reporting.

Hillary Clinton soon received a letter of rejection from the Chinese side, and Hillary knew that she had to stand on Chinese soil to make a turnaround, so she did not ask Obama for instructions, so she replied directly to a letter, which simply mentioned such a sentence: The United States already knows about Guam, and the United States has contacted China not to verify or pursue the matter of Guam, and the reason why she asked to visit China is also to hope that the specific rules for the peaceful development of the two sides can be achieved. Face-to-face meetings with Chinese leaders.

Xie Tian also knew in his heart that the Americans must have known about Guam, otherwise it would be impossible to send planes from afar to investigate, and since Hillary Clinton was so generous and directly picked up this layer of window paper, there was no need for her to continue to conceal it, so she replied: "If Mrs. Hillary is willing to visit China, the Chinese side is also willing to make specific talks on this, but because it is a special period, Mrs. Hillary's visit to China must be subject to the arrangements of the Chinese side, and the Chinese side will send a plane to Washington after determining the time of the visit. Bring Hillary Clinton to China. ”

Hillary Clinton did not expect the Chinese to be so cautious that even the planes of the US political axe were not allowed to enter China's airspace, and if she wanted to visit China, she could not take her own special plane, so she could only wait for the Chinese's plane to come and pick her up in Washington.

Xie Tian also quickly made a decision, since Hillary Clinton wanted to talk to the Chinese, then he would not delay and let her come over as soon as possible, so he sent a team to Washington Airport in the United States on an Air China Boeing 747 passenger plane.

When the Chinese plane landed at the Washington airport, the American dignitaries who went to the airport were in a very complicated mood, everyone knows that China is now different from the past, they have preserved more strength after the outbreak of the zombie virus, and they have started to rebuild faster, and they have obtained a large number of weapons and materials from the United States, and their current strength is absolutely the first in the world, which makes the psychology of Americans not only very angry, but also sour.

The person in charge of the contingent going to the United States is called Dong Jian, a clerk in the office of the Provisional Military Commission, and he does not even have a real official position, but only has the identity of a secretary; in the US intelligence on China's political axe, there is not even the slightest information about this person, and the unhappiness in the hearts of the Americans can be imagined, knowing that China does not attach importance to them, but now it is very rare for Chinese to be willing to talk to them, so the Americans do not dare to make extraneous troubles.

Dong Jian's English is very good, he once studied in Britain for six years, so he can communicate with the Americans very easily without an interpreter, the Americans originally invited him to the hotel to rest for a while, and then wait until the right time to take off before going to China, but Dong Jian refused, he was not even ready to leave the plane more than 1,000 meters, and said to everyone very resolutely: "Our plane will take off and return to Shanghai on time in three hours, so your country does not need to hold a banquet for us, please Mrs. Hillary to prepare as soon as possible, three hours later, Come with us to Shanghai. ”

The Americans calculated in their hearts that they would take off in three hours and arrive in Shanghai at about half past one o'clock local time. Hillary Clinton was very dissatisfied in her heart, and said to Dong Jian: "I can't believe that your country would let me land at your country's airport at night, this is not in line with diplomatic etiquette at all, and it has never been done before in the history of diplomacy, and I personally feel that this is an insult." ”

"I'm sorry Mrs. Hillary." Dong Jian said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "This is the arrangement of our Provisional Military Commission, I am just an official who executes orders, so everything will be done in accordance with the orders of the Provisional Military Commission, and after three hours, our plane will take off and return, please consider whether to board the plane, in addition, if you decide to board the plane, you can only bring a maximum of two entourage." ”

"Two?" Hillary was speechless angrily, in her opinion, the Chinese really did not give her face as the secretary of state, thinking that when she accompanied her husband to visit China, the situation was simply to hold herself to the sky, everywhere in China must be the highest level of treatment, and the Chinese have a good face since ancient times, in order to make their visit with their husbands more perfect, the Chinese are almost to the point of working the people and losing money, many details are perfect, but now, the Chinese are so rude that they want to sneak down at night, And the entourage can only bring two people, so it doesn't look like it's going to visit, but it looks like it's going to take political refuge.

Dong Jian glanced at Hillary and said lightly: "Madam, tell me when you think about it, and I will wait for your reply in the cabin." With that, Dong Jian strode up the spiral staircase, returned to the inside of the plane, and left a group of US dignitaries under the plane.

The congressman said: "Fortunately, His Excellency the President did not come, otherwise, it would be inevitable to be humiliated by such an unknown young man, and the Chinese are too much." ”

"No way." Another accompanying official sighed: "Who makes the Chinese have strength now?" In this world context, whoever has the strength has an absolute position, and you say that in a country like China, who else can intervene in him now? It's just because of Pakistan's request for help that without saying a word, planes were sent to bomb India on a large scale, which is much tougher than the previous Chinese political axe. ”

"Yes." Hillary sighed, but her expression was extremely firm: "I have to go to China to see, see how strong the Chinese are now, see how far they have developed now, even if there is endless humiliation waiting for me, I must go!" ”

After that, Hillary said to her assistant, "Edward, you come with me." ”

"Yes, ma'am." Edward nodded, and asked, "Who else are you going to go with you?" ”

"No need." Hillary said lightly: "One of you is enough, you know Chinese, you can be my translator, don't the Chinese only let me bring two followers at most?" Then I'll just bring one. ”

"It's just that I'm afraid there will be a lot of inconvenience at that time." Edward spoke, "It's better to bring a female assistant." ”

"No, you don't." Hillary waved her hand and said, "It's not that I can't take care of my own normal life, is it that after I go to China, the Chinese political axe can't even care about me?" Don't worry, let's get on the plane now. ”

"Now?" Edward began, "I'm not ready, I don't have a lot of papers and my laptop with me. ”

"You don't have to." Hillary said lightly, and then, she strode out, went directly up the spiral staircase of 747, and went up a few steps, Hillary turned her head and said to the dignitaries below: "Go back and tell Your Excellency the President that I will do my best to fight for the interests of the United States." ”

Everyone nodded and said goodbye to Hillary, but no one was optimistic about Hillary's trip to China, after all, the American leader has never had such an aggrieved way of visiting, this time I am afraid it is going to be a precedent, and after arriving in China, I don't know how many unpredictable things are waiting for Hillary.

Hillary got on the plane, and the assistant Edward immediately followed, and as soon as they got on the plane, two flight attendants walked up to the two and said in Chinese: "Please come with me, you two, your room is ready." ”

Edward translated to Hillary, who nodded and said to the two flight attendants, "Trouble you two to lead the way." ”

Both flight attendants had a high level of English, and when they took Hillary and Edward to a room in the cabin, this room was for Hillary, and there was a room next door for her entourage, but both rooms had one feature, that is, there were no windows.

Hillary also noticed this, there were no windows, which looked a little weird, after the two flight attendants took them to the door of the room, they told them that they could ring the bell to call them, and then the two left, and there was no one else here, Edward saw that the cabin had been modified, and this section of the cabin, like the room, had no windows, that is, they couldn't see anything outside at all.

"The Chinese have prepared two air cells for us." Edward sighed and said, "Madam, I can't imagine why you would accept such an interview, this is not a visit at all, but an insult. ”

"Don't say it." Hillary Clinton stretched out her hand to stop Edward's words and said, "We are here to solve problems in China, not to feel the superiority of the world hegemon." ”
