Chapter 460 Are Military Exercises Also Broadcast Live?
Ugly country.
After receiving the $2 billion in consolation money from Bangzi Country, Edward finally felt much better.
Although it was less than half the requested US$5 billion, he was still very satisfied.
After all, five billion is just a casual number, and there is no hope.
He glanced deeply at Secretary of State Steven and Defense Secretary Hanson sitting in the office.
"Guys, I think it's time to show the world some muscles, otherwise they will forget who is the master of this world, what do you think?"
Edward said slowly and in a low tone.
That Chinese song always stuck in his throat.
The theft gang can basically be identified as Chinese. If he doesn't come back with revenge, he won't be able to think clearly.
Hearing this, Hansen and Steven looked at each other.
I didn't understand what Edward meant for a while.
"Your Excellency, what do you mean?"
When Steven heard the show of muscles, he subconsciously wanted to refute.
Last time I also talked about showing off my muscles, but ended up becoming the laughing stock of the whole world.
"I'm going to announce the results of the investigation and ask Huaxia for an explanation." Edward's face was calm, and he had already made a decision in his heart.
Hearing this, Hansen had an idea: "Your Excellency, President, do you mean to throw this blame to China and let them compensate?"
"It's all about blaming the blame. It was originally done by the Chinese. Every injustice has its own owner." Edward smiled enigmatically.
Anyway, netizens all over the world have basically heard that Chinese song. If he said that the theft gang was Chinese, not many people would question it.
As for whether it was the Chinese who did it, does it matter?
"Yes, the Chinese are so abominable, we must impose severe sanctions." Hansen nodded in agreement.
"Will China agree to our request?"
Steven asked worriedly.
China's national power is not much weaker than theirs. If they really refuse, there is nothing they can do.
"It doesn't matter, our aircraft carrier formation will be dispatched." Edward said lightly.
"..."
The two of them were stunned.
Hansen asked cautiously: "You mean we start fighting directly?"
This is too scary.
Although he is the Minister of Defense, he has no intention of going to war with China.
At first, he thought Edward wanted to sanction Chinese companies as usual. After a long time, why did the aircraft carrier formation come out?
"Think twice, Mr. President, once the war starts, it will be World War III, and the ugly country will probably be directly destroyed!"
Steven persuaded earnestly.
Originally, this matter was basically over. I could impose sanctions casually, as long as I wanted to do it. Wouldn't it be a big deal if we did it with real swords and guns?
As the saying goes, a White House made of iron is a president made of water.
There is no need to drag the ugly country into the abyss because of Edward's selfish interests.
They both thought that Edward had a mental problem after dancing.
I secretly wondered whether the United Parliament should change the president.
Seeing the cowardly exchange between the two, Edward felt extremely contemptuous.
Although he has no intention of fighting with Hua Xia, the performance of these two people is too embarrassing, don't they dare to say harsh words?
"You are overthinking. What I mean is that if the other party does not agree to our request, we will join forces with other countries to conduct military exercises near the South China Sea."
Edward slowly expressed his thoughts.
There are many countries that have been cheated this time. He believes that if they take the lead in organizing a large-scale military exercise, there is no reason for those countries not to agree, right?
Steven and Hansen breathed a sigh of relief.
It turns out it’s a military exercise, so that’s no problem.
"Don't worry, if the other party rejects our request, I will personally serve as the supreme commander of this military exercise and help you vent your anger." Hansen assured him, patting his chest.
As long as he doesn't fight with real swords and guns, he has nothing to fear. Isn't it just driving an aircraft carrier to show off one's power? He really liked it.
"Well, you go down and get ready."
Edward nodded with satisfaction, and he was going to call the leaders of other countries later.
Because based on his experience in dealing with China, China will definitely not agree to their request, so this military exercise is almost inevitable.
...
Corrupt country.
After Prime Minister Miles received Edward's notice, he thought for a long time and finally rejected the other party's request.
As for the reason, first of all, this military exercise will not be of any benefit to them. Instead, it may make China hostile.
Secondly, he didn't like Edward's arrogant and bossy look.
Chou Country was their younger brother in Fu Country before. Although the opponent's strength now exceeds theirs, it does not mean that they can command Fu Country.
However, Waguo and Bangzi agreed without hesitation.
They had no reason to refuse.
the other side.
After receiving the relevant notice, the Chinese Ambassador to Ugly Country rejected Ugly Country’s unreasonable request without hesitation.
Soon, Edward made a high-profile announcement about this military exercise.
The eyes of the whole world couldn't help but focus on it. Anyone with a discerning eye knew that Chou Country had lost its defense a bit and urgently needed to show off its force to save the face that Edward had recently lost.
...
Magic City.
Zhao Yan, who was thinking about how to earn faith points, frowned after seeing the relevant news.
"Military exercise?"
"It seems that the lesson I received was not profound enough."
Zhao Yan smiled inexplicably, he wanted to take care of this matter. Firstly, it is a great opportunity to earn new breeding, and secondly, he was the one who caused this incident, so of course he has to be responsible for the aftermath.
"But if it's a military exercise, there shouldn't be many people watching."
He suddenly thought of a serious problem.
The more people the better when it comes to earning faith points, but not many people should be able to see it at the military exercise.
Wouldn't that be a waste of divine power?
"Yes!"
Zhao Yan suddenly thought that what he was experiencing now was the awesome profession of god.
At worst, it would be enough to make the other party change their mind and do another live broadcast.
Thinking of this, he flicked his finger in a certain direction, and a golden light flashed out.
...
at the same time.
White House.
The powerful figures in the Chou Kingdom gathered together to discuss the specific matters of the military exercise.
Edward felt very unhappy and cursed: "Humph, they are all cowards! Only Japan and Bangzi agreed to participate in this military exercise!"
He made several calls in a row, but either refused on the spot or considered refusing.
The only ones who really agreed were a son and a dog.
Vice President and Senate Chairman Wilk smiled nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter whether those countries participate or not, we are enough as one country."
He was extremely confident about Chou's military strength.
I don’t think there’s any need to bring that garbage to lower my rank.
Speaker of the House of Representatives Whitman frowned, "The purpose of attracting other countries is to isolate China. It seems a bit difficult now."
At this moment, an imperceptible golden light penetrated directly into Edward's head.
His body shook slightly, then returned to normal.
"Everyone, I have an idea that can make those wavering countries stand firmly on our side."
Upon hearing this, everyone turned their heads and stared at Edward.
Seeing that everyone's attention was attracted, Edward smiled softly: "I am going to broadcast this military exercise globally via satellite, so that everyone can weigh the consequences of angering us. What do you think?"
live streaming?
The officials present were stunned.
How could such a big thing be such a child's play? Do a live broadcast?
They wondered if Edward was addicted to being an Internet celebrity and always wanted to start a live broadcast. Otherwise, how could he have such a stupid idea?
"Your Excellency, this is not good."
"Yes, there is no precedent for this."
"I think it's good. It can let more people see our advanced weapons and powerful military power."
Officials discussed it a lot, some in favor of it and some against it.
"Okay, that's it."
Edward made a decisive decision.
Seeing this, the officials who objected said no more. After all, it didn't matter whether it was broadcast live or not, so it didn't matter if they agreed.
