The Undead Empire That Travels Through the Multiverse
Chapter 28 The President’s Roar
But just when the action forces and FBI agents felt that the battle was over and began to move in to clean the battlefield and treat the wounded, the destroyer that was originally moored in the river bend and had not participated in the battle suddenly made a move.
I saw a battle alarm sounding on the ship, and the entire ship began to enter a fighting state and began to cruise. The crew on the deck also quickly entered the cabin and closed the door.
Subsequently, the missile launch port cover on the deck was opened, and two cruise missiles spewed flames and quickly rose into the air. After turning a corner, they headed straight towards the battlefield.
Along with the two cruise missiles, several anti-aircraft missiles were launched.
The tail flame ignited by the missile launch formed several white trail clouds in the sky, but no matter who saw such trail clouds, they would feel sincere fear and fright.
Because this is not a harmless natural phenomenon, but a symbol of destruction and death.
At this time, the two fighter jets originally used to guide missiles were still circling over the battlefield, and everything was still normal on the display in front of the pilots.
However, several anti-aircraft missiles have quickly approached the two fighter jets, and the distance has entered the no-escape zone.
At this moment, the airborne radar on the fighter jet seemed to be blind. It did not react at all. It was still sending signals to the missile, guiding the missile's direction, correcting the missile's flight trajectory, and ensuring that They can hit the target accurately.
The advancing troops on the ground naturally saw the missile track cloud in the sky, but it was too late.
The supersonic cruise missile has entered the terminal guidance stage. At this time, it is too late to run.
As the ground force commander watched in horror, two cruise missiles slammed into the factory and the advancing tank troops, while several anti-aircraft missiles also accurately hit two fighter jets and several helicopters in the sky.
In an instant, a violent explosion enveloped the entire area where the abandoned factory was located. The sky and the ground were all filled with flames caused by missile explosions and ammunition explosions.
At the same time, under the destroyer that was maneuvering tactically in the river bay, a black shadow was approaching quickly. Two slender and thick tentacles pierced the water, whipped on the destroyer's hull like a whip, and then tightened instantly. .
The entire warship was twisted into a bunch like paper. The consequences of modern warships abandoning defense in pursuit of speed were clearly revealed. The fragile hull could not resist the destructive force brought by the two metal tentacles.
The hull quickly cracked under the pressure of the tentacles and flooded. The crew members ran out of the cabin as if fleeing for their lives. However, when they wanted to abandon the ship and jump into the water to escape, they found that there were more tentacles standing up in the water.
In the desperate eyes of all the crew members, these tentacles wrapped around them and began to assimilate them.
——————————————
In the Presidential Office of the White House, the President took off his reading glasses with a trembling left hand and barely maintained his calm: "The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Director of the FBI, and Secretary of Defense are staying."
The three people whose names were called looked at each other and felt a hint of nervousness on each other's faces. Others in the office filed out and left the presidential office after the president finished speaking.
The person walking at the end thoughtfully closed the door of the President's Office.
"That's an order! Destroying the Terminators is an order!" the president roared angrily, banging his right hand on the perseverance table presented by the Queen of England in front of him: "How did you carry out my order?"
Facing the president's roar, the three people couldn't help but tense up, and their faces showed embarrassment.
It's no wonder that the president is so angry. This action is really embarrassing.
A tank battalion and half an Army aviation squadron from the Army, a destroyer from the Navy, two F22 fighter jets from the Air Force, an air assault infantry company from the Quick Reaction Force, two elite agent action groups from the FBI, plus the National Guard's An infantry battalion and the NYPD's star squad.
Together, these forces were enough to launch a war in a small country, and even changed the government in a small African country, but they were caught in a small trap by the Terminator.
It was simply the heaviest loss suffered by the United States since the Gulf War, especially for the Navy. The sunk destroyer was the first U.S. warship sunk since the end of World War II.
"Has things reached this point? All the troops are lying to me! Even the FBI!" However, when the three people in front of him were embarrassed, the president's roar continued: "These generals are all disloyal. Unjust coward!"
Hearing what the president said, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff had to say: "Our generals..."
"Coward! Traitor! Idiot!" However, the president could not listen to any words at this time and still loudly scolded his generals for being useless.
This comment was obviously an insult to the entire US military. The Secretary of Defense couldn't help but defend himself: "Mr. President, this is a bit excessive..."
"These generals are the scum of the American people. They have no sense of honor!" But obviously, the defense secretary's defense only deepened the president's anger: "The reason why they call themselves generals is because they studied in the military academy for a few more years and learned How to eat with a knife and fork! Your knowledge is holding me back!"
Such language is obviously unacceptable to the Secretary of Defense and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Although the president is nominally and functionally the supreme commander-in-chief of the U.S. armed forces, in fact whether the president can order the military still depends on whether he can obtain the support of the military.
After all, the president's term is four to eight years at most, but generals are tenured for life, not to mention those generals with real power. They are the ones who truly control the US military, the world's largest military force.
The Secretary of Defense and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff are representatives of the military’s interests.
Therefore, when the two of them saw the president insulting the army and generals so much, they couldn't help but feel very dissatisfied with him.
Even though the war is going like this, the generals are very frustrated, but this is not the prerequisite for the president to insult the military.
So the Secretary of Defense stood up and loudly interrupted the president's rant and further insulted the generals: "Mr. President, I have to remind you that the top priority now is how to handle this matter, rather than continuing to insult the generals. Vent your anger, and if you really want to pursue this matter, one of the generals will resign over it."
This is a solution that has been discussed within the military for a long time. The military really needs to throw in a general with enough weight to take the blame for this matter.
Hearing this, the president couldn't help but temporarily suppress his anger. He sat on the chair a little tiredly and asked, "Then what are your countermeasures?"
