"Davis is still there, our military exercise is fine. ”

Amelia asked.

"I've ordered Davis to ramp up his intelligence gathering, and as for this exercise, I'm personally more inclined to the actions of Mirama and the Uighandi, whose purpose is nothing more than to show us off their new airship. At this point, it seems that there is a strong connection between the two, but it is too early to say that they will immediately throw themselves into the arms of the Holy Alliance. ”

McLaughlin was adamant that if Miramar and the Uyhandi government really had this idea, then the CIA agents should be able to get this information, even if they were sluggish.

"Still. McLaughlin spoke again, satisfying the appetite of everyone present.

"I'm more inclined to have some of the people in power behind them, like the Buck family, than Miramar and the Uyhandi government. ”

In fact, after McLaughlin finished the first half of his sentence, everyone had already thought of this family that leaned towards power in Miramar and Weihan, especially the old Buck as the speaker, is definitely an ambitious guy, especially in recent years, he will occasionally throw out some remarks about amending the constitution and supporting the lifelong system, which also disgusts some free and glorious countries.

"The Buck family is indeed suspicious enough that it cannot be ruled out that they will have this idea of kidnapping their own selfish desires with the state. This is dangerous, and we must stop it as soon as possible, at least to separate their family from Mirama and the Vihandi. ”

Kakino, who had been gloomy, spoke, and when McLaughlin said the identity of the renegade just now, he also explained on the spot, but it will be interesting to see how effective it is, after all, the focus of everyone's attention is not on this now.

"I agree with Speaker Kakino's suggestion that while we at the Department of Homeland Security do not have the authority to carry out operations outside the borders of the Republic, we do have knowledge of the Buck family's property in the Republic and are ready to take action against these targets. ”

John Lennon said with some excitement that the Department of Homeland Security, as a full-time domestic intelligence, will have a certain degree of attention to the vast majority of foreign-funded enterprises, especially this kind of industry of foreign high-level people, if the relationship is good, you can make a friend, if the relationship is poor, then take a bite, this is also Lennon's consistent style after taking office, many people call him "hyena" in private, which is not without contempt.

After Lennon finished speaking, there were a few sneers from the military headquarters, but Lennon, who had long been accustomed to this kind of treatment, was already invulnerable, and he didn't pay attention to these at all.

"Yes, you can make a plan first, but you must not act without my authorization. ”

Amelia also knows a lot about Lennon's virtues, but there is no need to oppose it at this time, as for the Buck family, Amelia, who has just entered his second term, is just a clown, he fully believes that the Silver Eagle Republic can easily erase their influence in Mirama and Weihandi if they exert their strength, compared to a Buck family, he is more troubled by the current corruption situation of his party.

"Also, Minister Wycombe Abbey, you military still have to be on guard, although Mirama and Vihan Derrena will definitely not dare to do anything openly, but maybe they will do something in private. ”

Amelia continued.

Several military bigwigs also nodded obediently, as if they had become a different group of people than when they surrounded Caterina and McLaughlin before.

"The hardest thing here is Director McLaughlin, although there is a lot of flaw in your lack of intelligence this time, but there is a reason for it, and the matter of investigation will be put aside first, but for the intelligence collection of the Buck family, it must be put in the first place, and my request to you is that if you don't move, you can't give the enemy any respite. Do you understand?"

"No problem, Your Excellency, we will successfully complete this task. But what should we do with the Clevelands? To tell you the truth, I had already sent two teams to Cleveland before I arrived. ”

McLaughlin had expected this to be the end result, but the revenge on the Cleveland side could not be stopped, and the operation would still go according to plan, especially for McLaughlin, who was bound to repay the flaws, this operation lost thousands of loyal Republic officers and soldiers, and the relevant Cleveland people would have to pay the price of blood anyway.

"Well, just do it, just follow the old CIA tradition. ”

Amelia also showed his iron-blooded side at this time, and the CIA tradition he said was life for life, which is easy to understand, the Cleveland people could actually let go of the insignificant detachment in the event of a failed operation, but since they did so, they had to bear the wrath of the Republic, even if it couldn't be a large-scale war, but the CIA people retaliated that not everyone could bear. Countless hostile nations have suffered heavy losses under this tradition, and it is clear that the Clevelands have chosen to forget this, or that they are overconfident in their own strength.

McLaughlin hurriedly nodded again, with Amelia's endorsement, he was ready to send more squads, after all, to kill thousands of people, just two squads are really stretched.

"Speaking of which, the military information investigation of Cleveland will be at the same level as Astor, although the chance of them finding trouble again is very small, but we still have to know ourselves and the enemy, and the military must also work out corresponding plans during this time. As for the Senate and House of Representatives, I hope that the two Speakers will be able to do more this time. ”

Although Amelia's current tasks are basically within the powers of the president, and there is no need for the Senate and the House of Representatives to authorize it, there is still an attitude to have, and Amelia also believes that no one dares to pull back in this situation, otherwise it is not just a matter of insecure status.

Kakino and Missy Rowling nodded solemnly, especially Kachino, who regarded Christian Bale's defection as the biggest stain on his political career and a great disgrace in his life, and he had already made up his mind to speed up the bill currently under consideration in the Senate to increase investment in the military and intelligence fields, which could be regarded as a kind of compensation for the incident.

"President, folks, there's one more thing you have to guard against, and that's the Astors. ”

After Amelia finished speaking, Caterina put forward her own point of view, which is also where she grows, never confined the development of a thing to a certain range, for most events, Caterina is used to using this divergent thinking to analyze, which is also a big reason why she can get to where she is now.

Apparently everyone including Amelia and McLaughlin had ignored this, and Caterina had made everyone's already somewhat relaxed minds tense up again.

"Vice President Katerina is right, this time the Cleveland people did not get any benefit and caused a fuss, if I were them, they would definitely bring in the Astor Empire to restrain us, whether it is the possible changes in Miramar and the Vihan Land or the substantial blow to us, the mad dogs of Astor will be very interested. ”

McLaughlin echoed in a deep voice, and Caterina's words just now struck him hard in his heart, "yes, I have forgotten that there is a tiger watching this wolf." ”

McLaughlin's words even more weight Caterina's point of view, if it is just against the Astor or the Clevelands, or even against the two at the same time, the top two countries in the Holy Alliance, the Silver Eagle Republic can withstand it through gritted teeth, but in addition, there is a second or five boys who need to be treated with caution, which is too heavy a burden for the Republic, and everyone has no good way for a while.

Even Amelia, who had just shown her composure, frowned, but when he looked around, he noticed that the only one with a less nervous expression was Caterina who had just asked the question, and it seemed that his deputy had something in mind.

"Katarina, what do you think?"

Amelia asked with a smile, he was very satisfied with this deputy, compared to the vice president of the previous term, Katerina was stronger in both ability and personality, Amelia already had the idea of training him to become the next party leader, and continue to lead the party to retain the presidency after his retirement.

"This matter is no longer suitable for us to do alone, and I suggest that we should bring in cooperative countries, so that we can have enough strength to solve the current problem." ”

Caterina said confidently.

"I have no offense, Your Excellency the Vice President, for neither Cleveland's provocations against us nor the possible changes in Miramar and Vihandi are inappropriate to disclose at this time, as this would greatly affect our position in the Alliance, and none of our hardcore allies at the moment can be mixed in such an exchange. ”

John Lennon said with some sarcasm, he had always looked down on Caterina as the vice president, so he also scoffed at her suggestion, but as soon as his words fell, he heard a few more sneers, and this time his old rival McLaughlin was also in the voice.

"Why, Chief John, do you think what I said is wrong?"

He had already practiced the laughter of others to the point of ignoring it, but McLaughlin's laughter was unbearable for Lennon.

"I'm sorry, Minister Lennon, but it seems that you didn't listen well when I just explained. ”

McLaughlin said with a playful look on his face, he now understood what Caterina meant, and although he didn't want to admit it, he also thought it was the best option at the moment.

"What, you just.... ”

Lennon was about to refute McLaughlin's words when he suddenly remembered something he had just overlooked, and he couldn't help but chop up, and stood there embarrassed not knowing what to say.

It seems that Minister Lennon listened carefully, but his brain reacted a little more slowly. ”

For John Lennon, Caterina was also very disliked, and there was no respect in her words, so she turned to Amelia and said to Lennon.

"President, I suggest uniting the Chuck Federation, and they are also inextricably linked to this incident, so we can't let them stay out of it like this. ”
