The Great Commander of Lighthouse Country, King Chuanyi, stared with wide eyes as the spring breeze tossed his corn-tassel-like hair. He couldn't believe what he heard.
"Our aircraft carriers have been hijacked by people from Country C?" In fact, the president couldn't even rember all the nas of his nation's aircraft carriers, but he was very aware of how significant their roles were. These included potentially naming one of the carriers after himself in the future.
His White House Chief of Staff, Pubos, said, "Even more shocking to us is that the so-called island-building operation by the people of Country C turned out to be the construction of a large island within a single day in the South China Sea, covering an area of over a hundred thousand square kiloters, even bigger than Cuba."
King Chuanyi pursed his lips, which was actually his expression when he was serious, "With the help of those aliens, I wouldn't be surprised by any bizarre occurrence. The critical issue is that our carriers have been hijacked by the C-country bastards. Damn it, who ca up with this crooked idea to test Country C's bottom line in the first place."
Pubos remained silent, because the person who wanted to show off power near the waters of Country C to assert Arica's continued greatness was none other than King Chuanyi himself. Only now, King Chuanyi didn't want to take the bla anymore.
"Mr. President, this is a very severe public relations crisis. Our fleet has been defeated by the people of Country C, and they've also demonstrated miraculous power by creating a gigantic island. Our allies and other countries around the world will have their reverence for us reduced to the lowest, and those oil tycoons in the Middle East have already sought to please Country C.
OPEC is even ready to decide on using RMB as the trading currency for oil. If we cannot resolve this crisis properly, Arica will accelerate its decline!" Girard, King Chuanyi's son-in-law, a young real estate businessman who had beco a high-level adviser in the White House, said. However, his way of thinking and even his choice of words were more like a businessman's than a true politician's.
The new Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff also chid in, "We are still in a state of conflict with Country C. The U.S. forces stationed at Ni Hong and South Rod have entered the highest state of combat readiness, prepared for any possible attacks at any mont. The aircraft carrier USS Reagan and its fleet have left the port of Yokosuka, but they're certainly not safe.
Even without the Iridium Star people, Country C has weapons like the Dongfeng-21D and Dongfeng-26, and we could lose the Reagan at any mont."
By now, King Chuanyi couldn't calm down at all. Although he was a very blunt and sowhat clever guy, the situation still made him agitated and his adrenaline surged.
"So, General, do you have any good suggestions to help us avoid such an ugly situation?" King Chuanyi asked.
The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff expressed regretfully, "Aside from bowing down to Country C, I think we have no other options."
King Chuanyi was furious, slamming the table and cursing, "What kind of nonsense is this? Didn't you say that the ones violating international law are the people of Country C? It's their fault, they started the war."
His Vice President Camason helplessly said to the president, "Sir, you're absolutely right. Country C has violated international law. However, now it's difficult for Country C to be condemned by other nations because after rging with Iridium Star to form the Star Alliance, it has beco the most powerful political force and violence machine on this planet, capable of destroying everything.
The leadership of this planet had already started to shake at that mont. When Arica was still the dominant power, we too trampled on international law more than once. It's only a talisman for the weak and never truly restrains the powerful."
King Chuanyi looked dissatisfiedly at Camason, "Whose side are you on? I'm beginning to doubt whether you're a fake Lighthouse Country vice president disguised by a C-country person."
Camason said with resignation, "I'm only trying to protect my country, nothing more."
At that mont, soone knocked on the door of the office, and after it was opened, a dignified and beautiful woman walked in—it was the good sprout from the bamboo of Chuanyi, his daughter.
It was evident that so were displeased with the highly favored First Daughter coming and going from the president's office. However, over the past few months, several high-ranking officials who had opposed King Chuanyi had been dismissed. No one wanted to jeopardize their position and job, so they kept quiet.
The First Daughter Chuanyi picked up the remote control and turned on the television in the president's office, saying, "Gentlen, you'd better watch this."
On TV was a live CNN broadcast of a joint press conference held by Country C's Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Departnt of Defense.
The two spokespersons stood shoulder to shoulder, giving the impression that the matter was very serious.
"Spratly Island is a large island built in our sovereign South Sea using Star Alliance technology, and it's an inseparable part of the Star Alliance.
Our country will establish a special administrative region on Spratly Island and start to fully implent the complete Star Alliance societal citizenship treatnt, develop our civilization, and create a better life and more opportunities for our people. There is no doubt that our country has reached an agreent with the other surrounding claimant countries.
Spratly Island is a territory of our country, and this has been confird. Any acts of sabotage against our national security by foreign countries with ill intentions are intolerable!"
"... We have repeatedly warned those with malicious intentions not to try to provoke the bottom line of our people. Our country's sovereignty and territorial integrity are sacred and inviolable. Any actions that infringe upon our sovereignty and territorial integrity will not be tolerated! The rampant and unreasonable actions of so countries have already been stopped by our military.
For a long ti, we have endured the establishnt of military bases at our doorstep, the repeated close reconnaissance, and even the direct infringent of our territorial sovereignty. Today, we want to say no to this bully!"
"Country C hereby solemnly declares that within the next 72 hours, the responsible country must dismantle all military facilities within 3,000 kiloters of our country, withdraw all military personnel, offer a serious and candid apology to our country, and cease all hostile actions that are detrintal to our national security and world peace.
Return to the right path of peaceful developnt for all humanity and the advancent of Earth's civilization construction."
A reporter imdiately asked, "Mr. Spokesperson, what if the responsible country you ntioned does not do so?" Experience tales with empire
The spokesperson adjusted his glasses, and although his face was elegant, it was covered with a layer of frost as he said, "That's quite simple, it's war! If they don't leave on their own, our military will send them away."
