Chapter VII Photo General

"Colonel and Mick each have a project in their hands, Colonel's you know, it's the S.S.R. Science Strategy Corps, Mick's I don't know, but it's definitely a very expensive project."

"However, the Military Council has a limited budget and is only prepared to allocate funds for one of the two projects."

"In the past month, the Colonel and Mick have been fighting on the committee every day, and neither of them will back down, and yesterday Mick was slapped by the Colonel."

"Actually, it doesn't matter if Mick's project doesn't get funding, anyway, his family has a big business, and he can still be a major general without a project."

"But the colonel can't do it, if the S.S.R. project is cut, he will definitely be slowly marginalized, and finally hand over all the projects in his hand, take a spare position, or retire directly."

"I see." Paul nodded, "That's... What does it have to do with me? ”

"Because you, the hero, are the only trump card in the hands of the colonel, as long as you don't retire from the army, you can become a general within ten years, a senator within twenty years, and a president within thirty years, and your relationship with the colonel is so good, everyone in the committee knows that giving the colonel an allocation is investing in you."

Donna sighed, "But, you just proposed to be discharged from the army at this time, and you were in the newspaper, doesn't that mean that you have taken away the colonel's hole cards?" There was no need for the committee men to curry favor with the Colonel. ”

"Oh~~~" Paul scratched his head.

Now I finally figured it out.

In the past, when the war was fought, it was about who did it, but Phillips had to be shorter than Mick, and now that the war is over, Mick, with his huge network of connections and the ability to slap horses, will naturally squeeze Phillips farther and farther away, until he disappears forever.

And Paul's departure will greatly accelerate the speed of Phillips' disappearance.

Maybe in three or five years, Paul came to visit his old boss and found that he had gone to the farm to feed the pigs, and the loyal Donna followed him to grow vegetables.

Paul pouted: "Colonel, this old stubborn, why didn't he tell me clearly." ”

"You also say that he is old and stubborn, how can he tell you plainly: Paul, without you, I can't kill that sissy Mick."

Donna looked at Paul complainingly, "Actually, the colonel scolded you and scolded you and gave you a punishment letter, all of which were trying to keep you in his way, you just thought he was reluctant to let you go, but you didn't understand that he couldn't do without you." ”

“... Oh. Paul really didn't expect that.

After all, he is a big man, how can he have Donna's careful thoughts.

Donna continued:

"After you left today, the Colonel went to the General Staff to report on Mr. X's note and applied for the transfer of troops, and Mick was present at the time, and he immediately said that the Colonel was demented, and the portal or something was a joke."

"In the end, although the staff agreed with the colonel to move the troops, they let Mick go with him."

"In other words, you'll see Mick at the 107 military airfield tomorrow night, and since he is a higher rank than the colonel, he is the supreme commander on the field."

"I can imagine that if there were no portals at all tomorrow night, Mick would say that the Colonel had lied about the military and caused panic."

"If the portal appears, Mick will direct the troops to complete the mission and take all the credit for himself."

"Take the good things yourself, and push the bad things to others, this is Mick's usual method, and he uses it perfectly."

"Oh yes, the reason why you haven't been promoted to lieutenant for so long is because Mick, the colonel has gone to the staff to pat the table several times for your promotion, but Mick always goes through various relationships to card your process."

Hearing this, Paul couldn't help but frown.

Although he has decided to retire from the army, he doesn't care about promotion or anything.

But.

Lao Tzu can not do it, but you can't not give it!

Mick's decision to squeeze Phillips away violated Paul's bottom line.

After all, Paul must have a lot of places to go in the future, and Phillips needs to mobilize army resources to help.

Donna continued, "Now that I've made it clear to you, you don't want to be discharged from the army, do you?" ”

"Of course not."

"That's good... Wait..."Donna was stunned, "Do you mean that you won't be discharged from the army, or that you won't want to be discharged?" ”

"I should be discharged from the army, and I don't want to stay in the army anymore."

Paul shrugged, "Well, you've come to cook vegetables for me, and Phillips has been on the battlefield with me, so I'm sure I'll have to take care of this matter before I leave the army with peace of mind." ”

Tomorrow, without affecting tomorrow night's plans, we have to find a way to make Mick eat a big.

Or... Eating Mick deflated... Let's put it into tomorrow night's plans.

It doesn't seem to be a conflict.

"You're ready to... How to cook? Donna asked, slightly worried.

Paul's audacity was well understood.

"You don't care about this, thank you for the reminder." In appreciation of Donna's behavior, Paul devoured the salad on his plate.

But in the middle of a few large bowls of vegetables, he resolutely did not move.

After the meal, Donna goes to wash the dishes, while Paul lies on the bed, turns on the system, and continues to look at the world of Raiders of the Lost Ark from God's perspective.

The German Nacrush force was already on its way to Crescent Canyon, but the pace of the march was very slow.

Because, the protagonist of "Raiders of the Lost Ark", Indiana. Jones, his father, his companions, and the three of them are trying to stop Nachard from getting their hands on the Holy Grail.

As a result, the speed of Nasha's march was greatly reduced.

However, this did not exceed Paul's expectations, he had seen Raiders of the Lost Ark in his previous life, and Nash's harassment by Dr. Jones was already within his budget.

Naja arrived at Crescent Canyon tomorrow night.

"The dishes are washed, I wish you all the best tomorrow night."

After saying this, Donna left.

For the next day or so, Paul didn't make any preparations, so he lay down in the officer's dormitory, swayed in the officer's club, chatted with the girl stationed at the scene, and went to her house to lie down.

and teleportation training without a single day break.

At 6 p.m. the next day, Paul arrived at the 107 military airfield in the northern suburbs of Washington.

At this time, the airport and the surrounding area of 3 kilometers have been cordoned off, and outside the blockade line is full of heavily armed guards and police, and no idle people are allowed to enter.

This shows how much Colonel Phillips trusts Mr. X, despite how ridiculous Mr. X's words sound.

The doorman recognized Paul, the hero of the war, and when he saw him, he immediately saluted solemnly and opened the door to let Paul in.

It wasn't Phillips who greeted Paul behind the door.

It's Mick. Arthur!
