Let you upgrade alone, you lead the country into the heavens

Wu Yue was quite surprised, but still responded calmly.

"We still need to ask the president for his opinion on this matter."

......

Near the first island chain.

On the flagship of the Seventh Fleet, Max stared at the satellite image with his pupils shrinking slightly.

The Maritime Self-Defense Force's fleet, including one of its own cruisers, was sunk by the Mutual Aid Association's counterattack!

Only one French Alsa-class destroyer survived.

His face was extremely gloomy.

In just five minutes, nine ships were lost!

Even if a bunch of pigs were allowed to drive it, so many ships would definitely not be sunk.

At this time, an officer said nervously.

"Commander! The Mutual Aid Association's joint fleet is on the move. They've formed into combat formation and are heading for the first island chain!"

Max's face changed when he heard that.

The Mutual Aid Association’s combined fleet consists of 108 combat ships!

Although the Seventh Fleet, together with the warships of other countries, can confront them, they are not ready for a full-scale war.

He couldn't help but curse angrily.

"Has the Mutual Aid Association gone crazy? Do they really want to fight a war with us?"

The second-in-command asked, "Commander, does this matter need to be reported to the Department of Defense and the White House?"

"Retreat first." Max gritted his teeth.

......

The news that a conflict broke out in the East China Sea and that the world's biggest bully suffered a heavy loss spread throughout the world in an instant.

What’s amazing is that the details in the report stated that only one ship was forced to leave the East China Sea area because it was hit by a mutual aid association ship.

There was also a small amount of publicity in China.

In a residential area in Binhai City.

Looking at the result, Qi Tian held his breath and wanted to slap himself.

No, the Mutual Aid Association really dares to fight.

A total of nine ships were destroyed!

I used to say that mutual assistance would be cowardly, but now it seems that this is not cowardly at all.

He clearly raised his hand to slap her, waiting for the other person to move his face closer.

Looking at the messages in the forum that mentioned him one after another, Qi Tian felt like crying.

Damn it, if you get impatient again next time, I’ll be your grandson.

Speechless after hearing these comments, he simply deleted his account and ran outside to seriously ask his mother.

"Mom, is the Mutual Aid Association still recruiting community volunteers?"

"Gone." Qi Tian's mother shook her head and stared at her son with an expression that asked, "What were you doing this morning?"

"I deserve it!" Qi Tian sighed, closed the door and went into the house.

......

In the White House.

Chief of Staff Carl asked his subordinates with a serious face.

"Has the news been suppressed?"

The subordinate shook his head.

"I'm afraid the Republicans won't be able to suppress it, Chief of Staff. I thought they would make this information public and attack us."

Carl's face was heavy.

Are these guys only thinking about party struggles?

The only good news now is that the Mutual Aid Association does not want to start a war, otherwise, the first island chain to the second island chain will be hit by ballistic missiles in an instant.

This is not being done now, and the Mutual Aid Association does not want to engage in an all-out war.

So what’s the next step?

As he was looking gloomy, another subordinate entered the office.

"Chief of Staff, the President wants you to come over."

......

Going to the President's office, Carl discovered that the Secretary of Defense was also there.

He looked at the president first, "Mr. President."

The president had a cold face, and the question in his mind about why we couldn't compromise came out of his mouth in a different way.

"What are you going to do next?"

Carl frowned.

If the situation eases now, the result will be resignation and the end of his political career.

Since we have chosen to apply extreme pressure, we might as well take another gamble.

If conventional force is unable to deter, then there is only one option: nuclear weapons.

He immediately suggested, "If we hype it up internationally, cooperation will interfere with our free travel. Alternatively, we can test a nuclear bomb in the Bikini Islands as a deterrent."

The president closed his eyes for a while before opening them.

Cooperating with the mutual aid association is indeed the right thing to do, but he also knows that the entire administrative team, from Congress to the White House, has been put on the fire.

Their future political careers will be completely ended by the Republican Party using the doomsday and this incident.

He suddenly felt very bad.

Doomsday, mutual aid association, why do they choose to appear during my term of office?

With a slight sigh in his heart, the president looked up and said.

"Chief of Staff, do as you say."

"Yes." Carl nodded.

Soon, the news of the nuclear bomb test in the Bikini Islands spread widely around the world.

......

In the 2012 world, inside the temporary base of the Binhai City Mutual Aid Association.

The Hunter is standing inside the base.

This temporary base was converted from an abandoned airport and is perfectly suited for parking mechas, serving as the temporary command center of the mutual aid association.

After getting off the plane, Zhang Xuan walked towards the base command post while checking the documents in his hand.

After reading all the information, he couldn't help but sneer.

"What a secret they kept! Nine warships lost, thousands dead, and they managed to cover it up!"

"Should we spread some truth?" Guan Sheng asked with a wicked smile.

"No need." Zhang Xuan shook his head and explained, "The reason the current ruling party in North America in the 2012 world was able to win in 08 was precisely because the current black president attracted a lot of minority votes."

"Obviously, the other party wants to use this opportunity to gain an advantage in the next election. Believe it or not, in a few days, the families of the fallen soldiers will come forward to testify."

"Believe it." Guan Sheng nodded. Although he didn't know much about the situation in North America, he believed that the president's judgment should be correct.

All the way to the base command post.

Zhang Xuan was a little surprised to see the people in the command post.

The visitor was none other than Gianluca from the Pacific Rim World.

During the Monster War, this person was a member of the PPDC Board of Directors, representing the demands and will of North America, and was also a senior figure.

After the Monster War, the PPDC base and some of the personnel who voluntarily stayed behind all transferred to join the mutual aid association.

Gianluca also became an ambassador for the 'Pacific Rim Chapter' of the Mutual Aid Association, representing Pacific Rim North America.

As soon as he saw President Zhang, Gianluca smiled.

"Zhang, I heard you guys are having trouble in the 2012 world. I might be able to help you out."

Zhang Xuan frowned slightly, "How do you solve this?"

Gianluca replied seriously, "I'm going to lobby Congress."

"Oh?" Zhang Xuan frowned. "Then you know that the Mutual Aid Association had a conflict with them in the East China Sea, and the 7th Fleet and the Maritime Self-Defense Force lost a total of nine ships."

"Of course I know." Gianluca responded with a smile, but cursed in his heart.

These politicians!

It's a world-destroying crisis. I have to touch the mutual aid association to get into trouble. I'm not afraid of being directly excluded.

To the point that you have to clean up your own mess.

But there is no other way. Our Pacific Rim Federation is still too weak in the mutual aid association. It would be great if we could have another federation to share the firepower.

Thinking of this, he was just about to tell his plan, but unexpectedly Wei Yan hurried in, holding a stack of information in his hand and said with a smile.

"President Zhang, great news! They're planning a nuclear test on Bikini Island, and they're making a big push!"
