Advanced Players in Arc

"How should we deal with this situation? We have never encountered this situation before, and there is no case that we can learn from."

"What else can we do? The other party is just a private company. We are the great United States. Of course we have to fight them back. If we beat them until they surrender, everything will be solved."

"Things are not that simple. Now isn't it because the opponent's individual force is stronger than ours? They can attack our submarines at any time, and the effect of our submarines on them is extremely unclear, which is very detrimental to us."

"Yes, and the other party also has a record of killing one of our aircraft carrier fleets. It can be said that they have rich experience in dealing with all kinds of our ships. Although they are only targeting our strategic nuclear submarines now, they can attack all our ships at any time."

"The most important thing is that all their warships can dive and turn into submarines, which is very detrimental to us, making it difficult for us to detect them and attack them."

"Is there nothing we can do? Just watch them demonstrate against us and we do nothing? Is this still the United States?"

"That is, the combat effectiveness of their individual ships is high, but their numbers are definitely not as large as ours. We can defeat the smaller ones with more, but I don't believe we can't annihilate them. If necessary, we can even bring in other countries to form a joint force. , the Arclight Group’s territory doesn’t even have strategic depth, we will definitely be able to penetrate it in a short time, then we will win.”

"No, it's not that simple. You have forgotten that in addition to the navy, the Arc Light Group also has an army and an air force, and they have great scientific and technological advantages, especially they also have space advantages. Their aerospace planes only need to be slightly modified. , that is, air and space fighters, our chances of winning will be reduced by a few percent..."

"It is indeed difficult to defend against attacks from space. They are too fast and difficult to intercept. I don't know how the laser interception system at the laser laboratory has been upgraded. If this happens, can it be intercepted successfully? "

"Yes, space... The focus of our research on the initial island is aerospace technology. I believe there will be results soon. We in the United States cannot live without a space force. This is very important and related to national security. I suggest that we pay more attention to this matter. Some, faster."

Regarding the issue of strategic nuclear submarines being teased, although the people present are all in the interests of the United States, their perspectives of thinking about the problem and finding solutions are different. After all, the people here are also divided into hawks and doves, and their respective perspectives are different. What is advocated is the use of force to solve problems or peaceful evolution.

At the very least, the military and government consider issues from different starting points. Although they are divided into hawks and doves, it is obvious that what the government needs to consider must be more comprehensive.

The military only needs to consider whether it can fight and win the war, but the government cannot.

Domestic and international political issues, as well as domestic economic issues, and even external related issues, as well as the chain issues that may arise from this matter, etc., are all things that the government needs to consider, so it cannot blindly criticize, or even Giving in when the time comes is also the best choice.

However, the President of the United States turned off the video after appearing here for a while, because it seemed that there was no practical solution to this matter in a short period of time. He just said to the Chief of Naval Operations before leaving, "Inform all units of the Navy, especially It is those strategic nuclear submarines that are being followed and provoked that stay vigilant, and if the other side makes any move out of bounds, let the submarines immediately counterattack."

"But be careful not to attack the Arc Light Group headquarters, which is Arc Light Island, because we are not 100% sure yet whether our opponent is the Arc Light Group."

"Yes, Your Excellency," said the Chief of Naval Operations.

After giving instructions to the Navy, the Air Force and Army also gave some instructions. Although the other party has only approached the Navy now, there is no guarantee that the other party will not attack the Army and Navy.

And once it is really decided to go to war, the Air Force and Army must also make corresponding preparations, strive to attack with all their strength in the shortest time, and then defeat the opponent in the shortest time.

The shorter the time, the more beneficial it is to the United States, because the United States’ foreign combat history in recent decades has clearly told them that the longer it takes, the easier it will be to be dragged into the quagmire of war, and at that time, it will be more harmful to the United States. disadvantage, so the length of time the war lasts matters to them.

After instructing the side responsible for combat operations, the President of the United States looked at the Minister of Intelligence again, "80% accuracy is not what I want. What I need is 100% confirmation of who our opponent is, so that we can formulate targeted plans. , Only in this way can we ensure that we have a greater chance of victory with minimal losses if a war breaks out, so you have to figure out who the opponent is in the shortest possible time."

“Remember, I want 100% and I need clear evidence!”

"Understood, Your Excellency," the intelligence minister assured, "we will identify our opponents as quickly as possible, with 100% accuracy in the shortest possible time, and find the evidence."

After confirming that everything had been said, the American president turned off the video screen, then closed his eyes and rubbed his temples.

It's so nerve-wracking to deal with this stuff.

But in just ten seconds, he opened his eyes, reached out and pressed a button on the phone on the table and said, "Tell the team to wait a moment. I want to rest for fifteen minutes. Let me know in fifteen minutes and we will go again." Congress.”

"Okay, Mr. President," came the reply on the phone.

Before going to Congress, he had to keep his spirits up. As president, he had great power and could even directly declare war on any country. However, the military expenditures needed for the war had to be appropriated by Congress, which made him very hurt.

This time the matter is so big, the United States must make all preparations. Once it decides to go to war, all military expenditures must keep up, otherwise the war will not be fought.

Moreover, the current situation of the United States is also very complicated. It cannot just fight a war as it used to. At the changing point of this era, many people have different thoughts and considerations, so what will happen to Congress? He really said No, maybe there will be another big melee, and we will have to fight in Congress first.

Although in news reports, those who fight in major meetings are small local councils and the like, they actually exist here too, but they just don’t report them.

Even if he doesn't need to rest because he is tired from work, or if he wants to have a "big battle" for a while, he still needs to maintain his mental and physical strength.

After he went to Congress, the situation there did not disappoint him. The situation was more complicated than he imagined, and...he actually had no way to refute it.

The earth has entered a period of rapid change, and everyone can see this.

After the Arc Light Group was born, this sign began to appear. The pace of innovation in science and technology was dizzying. Moreover, after several incidents caused by the Arc Light Group, countries around the world increased their investment in science and technology. .

Then came the stunning appearance of the Initial Island, which was like a shortcut key for the world. Many countries began to adjust their national plans and embarked on the fast track of technological innovation. They even no longer cared much about international affairs. Various other There are fewer disputes, and it seems that all the focus is on the initial island and things related to it.

Because they all know that as long as they seize this opportunity, everything else will be easy to talk about. Even the things that are difficult now will no longer be difficult in the future.

But if you miss this opportunity, you will have to follow others to eat exhaust fumes, and the taillights will not be visible.

So at such a critical moment, as the president of the United States, he doesn't want to think about how to develop the country quickly, but he still wants to cause trouble.
