Chapter 221
Old Biden didn't care at first.
But.
After listening to Burns' words, his face changed instantly.
His wrinkled face showed an expression as if he had seen a ghost.
"Director Burns, what did you say?"
"Take military action against Longguo?"
"Burns, that's Longguo, a big country in the East, not a small country like Sakura Country or Goryeo Country. Do you know what you are talking about?"
He tapped his fingers on the table and looked at Burns in surprise.
Why take military action against Longguo for no reason?
Is it because the military of the Eagle Sauce Country has too much funding and has nowhere to spend it?
If so, he doesn't mind cutting military spending and spending the money elsewhere.
Not only that.
Now is an important period for the election.
If he rashly takes military action against Longguo, it would be good to take advantage of Longguo.
If he doesn't take advantage of it, it will put the Eagle Sauce Country in a dilemma.
By then, his votes will probably plummet.
Maybe after he steps down, he will be accused of other crimes.
He will never be the victim!
Seeing that old Biden refused without hesitation, Commander Thomas frowned.
Then, he stepped forward and explained.
"Mr. President, I think you misunderstood what Director Burns meant."
"When we say military action, we don't mean to directly use force against Dragon Country, but to provoke Dragon Country and use it to bring out some of Dragon Country's current secret weapons."
Wolf took over Thomas' words and analyzed respectfully.
"That's right!"
"Mr. President, only if we have a comprehensive grasp of the deployment of Longguo's military weapons can we 'strike the snake at its weakest point' and curb Longguo's development from all aspects."
"According to the data from our military advisory research institutions, Longguo has been very active in military movements since the second half of last year."
"This can be seen from their last military expo and the 12-nautical-mile dispute."
"We must strangle Longguo in the cradle when it rises, otherwise there will be endless troubles!"
After that, the three of them remained silent and waited quietly for Old Biden's reply.
Even if they had a beautiful idea.
They planned to take this opportunity to disgust and anger Longguo.
But whether they could do this or not was up to Old Biden.
Who told him that he was now the president of Eagle Sauce Country?
However.
Old Biden seemed to be frightened by what happened to the president of Goryeo after he stepped down.
He still seemed indifferent to the three people's earnest persuasion.
He shook his head and refused.
"No matter how much Dragon Country rises, it is like an ant trying to shake a tree for Eagle Country, the first in Blue Star. It is useless and the three of you are worrying about nothing."
"With Dragon Country's current national strength, even if they are given another fifty or a hundred years, they will never catch up."
"Eagle Country's technological level is far ahead of the whole world!"
Old Biden waved his hand.
The black silk secretary standing next to him leaned forward slightly, poured a cup of coffee and sent it to his mouth.
Sipping the bitter coffee, Old Biden had a comfortable expression on his face.
The expressions of Thomas and the other two were not too good.
After looking at each other, Burns nodded and spoke again.
"Mr. President, only by being prepared for danger in times of peace can we have long-term stability."
"What's more, Eagle Country is about to hold a general election."
"With the 'contributions' made by Mr. President during his term of office, he will surely be successfully re-elected, right?"
Burns glanced at Old Biden with a smile.
During his re-election, the greatest contribution made by old Biden was to let the world know that there was a president who liked wrestling in the United States.
As for other aspects, it did not leave a deep impression on the international community.
So when Burns said this, old Biden's face suddenly became very ugly.
"Director Burns, what do you mean by this?"
"During my term, I worked hard and brought the United States to another height. Do you think I am incompetent and have not made any achievements?"
Burns waved his hands hurriedly.
"No, no, no!"
"Mr. President, you misunderstood. It's not that I am dissatisfied with you, but..."
He was halfway through his words.
Burns took out an investigation report from the file bag and slowly pushed it in front of old Biden.
"Mr. President, this is a domestic opinion poll report."
"The second is a poll report on the candidates for the next election from various organizations."
"Mr. President, from the survey report, we can see that many people are not very satisfied with your performance during your term!"
"Even some people and organizations that supported you before are like this."
"Mr. President, the situation is not good..."
Old Biden said nothing, his eyes fixed onThe investigation report in his hand.
The wrinkled face was very gloomy at the moment.
He naturally heard the threat in Burns' words.
But at the same time.
The data in the investigation report in his hand was real and true, without any falsification.
His public support rate was plummeting and had reached a very dangerous situation.
Let alone re-election.
If this continues, I am afraid that I will be investigated by the FBI after I step down!
Old Biden looked worried.
He waved his hand and signaled the secretary to leave.
Then, he looked at Burns and the other two with an unprecedented serious look.
"Director Burns, what do you think?"
Hearing this, Burns smiled.
He said.
"Mr. President, Longguo has always attached great importance to the movements over there. In this case, why don't we make a little effort on this issue?"
Old Biden frowned, extended his hand to invite the three to sit down, and then asked.
"What exactly?"
"Arms sales!"
Burns blurted out.
Hearing this.
Old Biden was suddenly startled and looked at Burns in surprise.
"Arms sales?!"
"Director Burns, this is not a good decision."
"If it is an arms sale, Longguo will probably jump up and down."
Although the Eagle Sauce Country had sold weapons to them before, Longguo's national strength was weak at that time.
What's more.
When they sold weapons, they did not do it in a big way, but quietly.
But now if they directly announced the sale of weapons to them.
With Longguo's current military strength, I'm afraid they will have to make a big move.
This is not a wise choice.
Wolf analyzed on the side.
"Mr. President, this is exactly what we want."
"First, test the bottom line of Longguo!"
"Second, use this opportunity to expose some of Longguo's new combat weapons. Especially their weapons and equipment in the past two years, our database has not been updated."
"Take this opportunity to collect information."
Thomas assured on the side.
"The Seventh Fleet will escort and ensure the safety of this arms sale!"
Hearing their words, old Biden picked up the coffee and took a sip.
His brows were furrowed, thinking about the pros and cons.
After a while.
Those turbid eyes suddenly became fierce.
"In that case..."
