Blackstone Code

Mr. President was as naughty as most children when he was a child. He liked to play with fire. Fortunately, he did not wet the bed, otherwise it would be difficult for him to become president.

Once he accidentally lit his pants on fire, and the fear at that moment made his whole body tremble, even though he eventually jumped into the pool to put out the fire on his pants.

The fires did not cause any substantial damage to him, but he was still trembling with fear and breaking into cold sweats.

A deep-seated fear!

Now, at this moment, after one o'clock in the evening, the moment he answered the phone, a wave of fear from the inside out instantly spread throughout his body.

The sweat was squeezed out of the pores at once, it was like magic!

It violated the laws of nature. An invisible big hand grabbed Mr. President, otherwise he would not have been able to sweat so much all at once.

The voice on the phone continued.

"Mr. President, the vehicle of the Ministry of National Defense is already at the door. Please take the vehicle immediately..."

Mr. President stayed for a few seconds after hanging up the phone. He turned around and started to get dressed.

His wife, the president's wife, just glanced at him and turned back to sleep.

She knew about Mr. President's cheating, but to her... it wasn't a big deal.

For people like them, neither the spirit nor the body actually belong to them from a certain perspective.

Mr. President got on the vehicle of the Ministry of National Defense and quickly arrived at the strategic command headquarters. At this time, some generals had gathered here. Seeing the president's arrival, they briefly said hello and began to explain the situation.

"At 12:45, our patrol discovered a group of Marillos crossing the border and exchanged fire while driving them away."

"At that time, we effectively prevented them from continuing to go south, but then more and more people joined..."

The major officer said this and shut his mouth. Everyone can guess the rest without thinking...

The configuration of the patrol team is one armored vehicle and two patrol cars. Together, there are about 20 people and three machine guns.

However, the patrol car's machine guns cannot be used after winter, because they are outside the compartment and are completely frozen in cold weather.

If you want to use it, you have to use hot water or heat it with fire.

The only thing that worked was the armored car's machine gun, which was placed inside the compartment.

There is no big problem with such a configuration in dealing with small-scale firefights, but once it encounters a larger-scale attack, it will be difficult to play any role.

If there are hundreds of enemies or more, these vehicles can only turn into a huge iron coffin!

After a few seconds, the President asked, "So how was the patrol station compromised?"

After he asked this question, the other officers looked at each other and said nothing.

In fact, the patrol station is much more fragile than the president imagined. It is just a concrete house. It was built to give patrol members patrolling the border a place to rest.

It is not really a fortification. When attacked by a large number of enemies and equipped with explosives, it is completely unable to withstand such an intensity of battle.

It didn't take long for some entrances to be blown open, and everyone knew what happened next.

The silence of the officers made the President realize that his question was unnecessary. He frowned and said, "So gentlemen, what are your plans next?"

"I don't want people to discuss this matter after dawn and laugh at us for not even being able to come up with a way to deal with it."

One of the major generals coughed slightly. He was the youngest general here, so naturally it was him who spoke.

"Mr. President, we think...we think this is a war, and if we don't put out this invader quickly, more people will soon learn from them."

"There are more than one million refugees on the border. If these people start to force their way south through armed means, it will cause terrible damage to the social stability of the Federation!"

"They have no basis for life in the Federation, and at the same time they all carry weapons with them..."

Mr. President raised his hand to stop him, "I know this, you just need to tell me what your plan is."

The major general looked at the other generals, and then said in a deep voice, "We need your authorization."

When he said these words, Mr. President realized what authorization he wanted!

War authorization!

In the Federation, there are only two ways for troops to be mobilized.

The first way is to hold a vote in Congress. If more than 66% of the people vote in favor, then the military can start conducting military operations at home or abroad.

The second way is presidential prerogative. According to the federal charter, the president has the prerogative to directly mobilize the military for military operations without going through Congress.

However, there is a limit to this. Generally speaking, when the time span and intensity of military operations do not exceed a certain standard, the president can make his own decision.

If a threshold is exceeded, then Congress must step in and hold a vote.

Gu Ling

This is a rule established to prevent the president from abusing his privileges and bringing danger to the country.

At this time, Mr. President's heart was surging and he was a little excited, because he knew very well that as long as he nodded, he would have the chance to be re-elected.

But……

He hesitated.

The military generals are looking at him. To be honest, if something like this happens at this time, the military can only intervene.

What they just said is not a joke to undermine the stability and order of federal society!

Once these people go south, more Marillos will go south, and more and more.

Not to mention building momentum for the federation in the international community, it is estimated that the war has really broken out and the internal problems have not been cleared up yet.

Political matters are left to the president and they will not interfere.

At this time, Mr. Trueman also got up. He did not come to the Ministry of Defense, but just sat in the room, smoking.

Judging from the information he received, there was basically no problem with his victory.

But if Mr. President declares a state of war at this time and mobilizes troops to go to the border to suppress it, he will have a chance to be re-elected.

This is the power given to him by the Charter, and no one can change it.

He didn't know what Mr. President would do. At this time, his heart was far less calm than his calm expression.

He also seemed to feel that particularly uncomfortable feeling. His heart was beating loudly, but it couldn't provide much strength to his body.

At 1:25, Lynch was awakened by the sharp ringing of the phone. He opened his eyes and looked at the dark ceiling. After the phone rang a few times, he stood up and picked it up.

The call came at this time, and it rang several times and continued, which meant that this was a call he had to answer.

In fact, when disturbing others late at night like this, if the other party does not need to know anything, the caller will put down the phone after three rings.

But not this time, and it matters.

"Lynch, there are some situations happening on the border between us and Marillo. Can you provide us with military assistance now?"

At the sound of Mr. President's voice, Lynch immediately stood up. He put his shoulder against the receiver of the phone while changing his clothes.

"Of course, anytime, anywhere. Can I know more details?"

Mr. President seemed to sigh, "We have arranged a car, you have half an hour..."

When Mr. Trueman knew that the president finally left this matter to Blackstone Security, he breathed a sigh of relief and felt some inexplicable guilt in his heart.

He felt that he... thought of the President a little too much, and this also made him make a decision at the same time, that is, to take good care of the President, his children, nephews, and younger descendants.

Ten minutes later, the sergeant was woken up by a phone call, followed immediately by the emergency assembly of the training camp...

It takes about two to three days to get to the northern border from here by train, but don't forget that Lynch has an experimental model of a large transport aircraft.

At that time, these aircraft and airborne troops were used for airborne landings, and there were also airports in the north.

While mobilizing Blackstone's field operations in Marillo to assemble at the border, he also airlifted the company's employees toward the border...

At the same time, Recatos had already led people across the border.

During the fighting, they lost some of their men, but they also successfully broke through the federal patrol blockade.

The people who have actually experienced these battles have experienced far more cruelty than the reports Mr. President has heard!

The patrol had already applied for rescue before it was wiped out, and it didn't take long for several patrols to arrive.

These patrols drove behind them in cars from a distance, and machine guns fired continuously. These Marillos were like cutting wheat, falling down one after another and never getting up again. The battle lasted for more than forty minutes.

Their movement was so great that many Marillos who had no intention of joining began to rush towards the border with weapons.

There were about three to four thousand people who eventually crossed the border. They took out patrol cars and armored vehicles, attacked patrol stations, and then continued south.

At this time, for these people, for people like Recatos, the joy in their hearts cannot be described in words!

The Federation is so big. With their abilities and means, they can gather a certain amount of wealth in a short time. When the time comes, they can change their identities and go to big cities to enjoy the blessings!

The sky gradually begins to lighten up, and there is still one final step before we can truly gain freedom.

Every day, refugees try to sneak into the Federation, and some of them get caught even after they have gone some distance.

Those who do not resist will be thrown back to the border.

From the mouths of these people, everyone knows that there is a blockade behind the border!

Only by crossing this last blockade can they gain true freedom!
