-- Global Online, Allied Military Announcement

****

Just when Ling Yu and the others had just completed a forced landing with almost no losses, the North American Theater Command in Ottawa was already in a mess.

The commanders of the army, navy and air force of the alliance, when they took refuge in Icarus, would return to their headquarters separately, and then establish a command network through the guò communication network, and if they encountered an ongoing campaign, then at the beginning of the campaign, the commander would directly assemble to the temporary campaign headquarters in the corresponding theater, such as Europe would go to Berlin or Nuremberg.

But the chiefs of staff and the president, national security advisers and cabinets will still return to Washington.

"What's the situation now, have you made any contact with Andrews Air Force Base?"

The North American Theater Command in Ottawa was naturally the department that was the first to take on the response to Washington's attack, and at a time when the chief of the Army General Staff was still in Washington's life, Deputy Chief of Staff Yang Chengze naturally took over the banner of the Supreme Commander.

At this moment, even Yang Chengze does not believe that this solar storm is caused by purely natural factors - it is such a coincidence. Based on the build-up, the ACA knew exactly when the solar storm would break at least a month ago, which is almost impossible.

But now this is not the point, the point is that it is necessary to restore the contact with the parliament, the president and the chiefs of the general staff of the three services.

"Andrews Air Force Base did not respond! We're still in touch! ”

The voice of the communication staff officer was already a little hoarse, but after responding, he began to operate busily on the control platform, Yang Chengze nodded, and unconsciously pinched a crack in the electronic board in his hand with his left hand.

David. Morgan...... You bastard!

He had received reports of Director Morgan's suicide at the Pentagon half an hour earlier, and just as he realized what Morgan might have done, an attack was taken on the east coast of North America. and reports of the attack on the Newport military port reached him.

No doubt. The target is Washington, D.C., where many dignitaries have just arrived.

Although Helis had come to this conclusion a few hours earlier, the alert-level reports from Ling Yu and Helis to the entire East Coast and Washington had been detained in the Pentagon's underground computer room, where Morgan had sent Anderson and his cronies to the far reaches of North Africa, where they were at the heart of the Pentagon. Most have been replaced by allegiance to Morgan and his ideals. and the agents whose Eye of Unity has long been lurking.

Yang Chengze can be sure. For this day, Morgan has been planning for at least ten years, and this may be a revenge - David. Morgan's son, Julian. Morgan died a decade ago as an Air Force pilot. And Morgan has always expressed dissatisfaction with the fact that the league is no longer launching a large-scale offensive against the ACA.

On the way to the command center, Yang Chengze kept frowning, perhaps it was he who released this monster - he had long known Morgan's political position, so he used him to complete the plan in Paris, but it was different from what he expected, although the plan in Paris was successful, but the alliance was busy establishing a military alliance with the Knights, it was impossible to launch a large-scale battle plan in the short term, and he thought that without the help of Kronos, Morgan and his secret service would not have been able to instigate such a large-scale plan, But now it seems that Morgan did not intend to rely on himself from the beginning, but has been working with the ACA from the beginning.

People who desire war always want war, whether it is the ACA or the Alliance, they will always lead the world to war for different reasons, strictly speaking, Yang Chengze himself is doing it, but now is not the time he expected, and it is not the place he expected.

Like Speaker Isaac on the other side, senior officials of the alliance, including Yang Song-taek, knew that this blow hit the heart of the alliance -- the alliance had only been established for a few decades, had just completed economic and military integration, and the estrangement between ethnic groups and the problems left over from history still existed, and in this case, if the entire cabinet died and the parliament fell apart, the internal friction of the alliance would only intensify, giving the ACA a chance to take advantage of.

"Sir, Icarus has been contacted by the Vice President, who asked him if he was ready to take the oath of office."

"Job, shit! These stupid politicians know about infighting, and he is stupid X and doesn't want to think about who listens to him when he is appointed! ”

Yang Chengze directly slammed the electronic board in his hand on the table, and then scolded, he knew that the vice president on Icarus only had "constitutional significance" - the president represented the party, the people, who would follow a guy who had never heard of before? He held his hand on the platform with only three fingers, and immediately added, "Inform Icarus that it is wartime, and that the vice president should be relieved while the president's death has not yet been confirmed, and according to the constitution, the president will not be deemed dead until forty-eight hours after his disappearance." ”

Obviously, scolding could not solve the problem, but Yang Chengze still maintained the greatest restraint, took a breath, and looked at the communications staff officer next to him again.

The worst possibility is that the Pentagon has completely fallen, and all the quantum communication systems in the theater that need to be relayed by the Secret Service will be paralyzed, but after all, Washington, as the temporary location of political dignitaries, still has some independent quantum communication terminals that can communicate with the headquarters of major theaters around the world at any time, Yang Chengze frowned and recalled again - there is one in the underground bunker of the White House Museum; The Capitol Hill Museum's underground bunker has one; Andrews Air Force Base has a ...... There may be one in the Museum of Natural Science, but that's a sample for people to visit. No one knows if it can be used.

Not knowing the scope of the Secret Service mutiny, and failing to get in touch with Capitol Hill and the White House Museum, Yang had to assume that the president and others had been killed as traitors, or at least, had not been able to take refuge, so Andrews Air Force Base was the last hope.

"Sir! Anderson. Deputy Director Li online. ”

"General, I've read the report, and I have something to tell you."

Anderson's avatar appeared on the screen, his eyes red and the wind buckle rudely ripped open. Apparently it was also because of this incident that I was devastated. But this did not affect the ability of this deputy director who was born in a submarine soldier, and his words were still full of spirit and logic.

"Before, I was warned by Ling Yu that there might be traitors within the Secret Service. Although I didn't expect it to be Director Morgan. But I still made targeted preparations. And this time Icarus suddenly evacuated, which made me feel a little abnormal, so I gave the order anyway. Anderson took a deep breath. I can guarantee that the president, the principal cabinet officials and the secret service agents of the residents' quarters did not mutiny, at least the agents around the president were specially selected by me, including the three TFs, and I gave the order - do not trust anyone, including me, in a dangerous moment, and be prepared to protect the president and the enemy for a long time. ”

"This news is too important, Director Anderson." Yang Chengze was stunned for a moment, then let out a sigh of relief, saluted Anderson, and made a guarantee that did not match the identity of a politician, "If the news is true, when it is over, I will give you a guarantee for this half life." ”

"What do you want to guarantee now," Anderson smiled bitterly, then rubbed his nose and let out a long sigh, "It's useless to regret it now, I've ordered to go back to Washington immediately, and we'll deal with the situation together." ”

"No, you don't come back." Yang Chengze shook his head gently, "You can't solve the problem when you come back, in wartime, the Allied forces can command the secret service agents, and it's useless for you to come back, there is a good chance that the other fleet of the ACA will have some conspiracy, it's better for you to keep an eye on it, and I will also transfer the 133 commando team to you." ”

"Okay, then it's all up to General Yang here." Anderson gave a rare military salute, and then smiled helplessly - Yang Chengze made such an arrangement, but on the other hand, he was also guarding himself, after all, now that the Secret Service is like this, it is really not an easy matter to believe who should be, as a commander, Yang Chengze definitely does not want his subordinates to have any unstable factors.

"Don't worry, I'll leave Ottawa and head to New York, where the Alliance has a command center under construction, Fort Bradley, and I'll be in command there." Yang Chengze looked up and returned a military salute, then cut off the communication.

"Sir, the first battle report has been delivered from Fort Bradley."

As soon as the words fell, the voice of the staff officer came.

"Upload it to me, we'll see it on the road," Yang Chengze took a breath and looked at a general and a group of staff officers in front of the map table next to him - this is the original team of the North American Theater Command, led by the commander-in-chief of the North American Theater of Operations, Aaron. Admiral Hughes, "Admiral, I'll leave it to you here." ”

"No problem, Yang." Aaron. Hughes is also a veteran of the Alliance, but his tactical ability is not outstanding, he is the kind of decent defensive officer, and the reason why he is the commander of the North American theater of operations is also because there have been no large-scale offensive operations in North America for four or five years, "Go ahead, I'll block the problem of that group of politicians on Icarus." ”

"The order and authority have all been given to you, and my side will continue to organize the troops around Washington to the rescue according to your arrangement," Admiral Hughes stated in a flat tone, his voice like a calm stream of water, "The supplies and the evacuation of the population will be left to us, all you need to do is organize the soldiers who are still resisting, and then tell us what you need." ”

"Okay, thank you." Of course, Yang Chengze knew how much trouble he would save by having such a person in his rear to take care of him, so although Admiral Hughes's position was not as high as that of his deputy chief of staff, he still shook hands with the other party politely.

"I only hope that by the time our troops arrive in Washington, the rescue operation will not turn into a battle." Admiral Hughes took a breath and squeezed Yang's hand tightly.

"No, I promise."

Dropping a sentence, Yang Chengze turned around and walked out of the headquarters quickly.

***

After solving the problem in the rear, what Yang Chengze had to do was to focus on the battle in front of him.

It was only four or five hours between now and the start of the attack, and with the ACA completely cutting off the means of communication, this telegram from Bradley Fort finally gave him and his staff a preliminary idea of the current war.

The ACA's offensive method is not fancy, first of all, it uses stealth attack aircraft to destroy the air defense and radar systems on the east coast - this first one makes Yang Chengze shake his head helplessly, because of the over-reliance on Icarus and the pervasive satellite network, the allied military, which firmly believes that ACA fighters cannot break through Icarus's surveillance, has long stopped upgrading the radar system on the east coast, there is no doubt that this is the product of political compromise, and Yang Chengze himself agreed to spend the budget on a more important front, Instead of making a barrier in the rear that is useless 99% of the time.
