Chapter 1163: Chapter 1163: Mr. President (Part 1)
Northwest, General Residence.
General Barton listened to the busy signal on the other end of the phone, frowned, and tossed the receiver to his assistant.
“Call over and see what’s going on?
The assistant redialed the number, and he frowned and walked to the window.
On the television, the cooperation between Andre and Gan Yuan had just been widely reported, and it was believed that it wouldn’t be long before Andre mobilized his navy.
At this ti, Gan Yuan’s military forces were already nearly double his, how could General Barton sit still?
He had been preparing for many years, just waiting for this day, yet he was forced into such a predicant by a little girl. General Barton’s heart was full of unwillingness, yet he was helpless.
Over the years, he had frequently visited other countries, hoping to make so reliable allies. However, those politicians seed to enjoy conversing with him on the surface, yet at such a critical mont, they all turned into turtles hiding in their shells, either claiming it’s inconvenient or simply not answering his calls…
Since the incident began, he had been actively reaching out, yet until now, not a single person was willing to genuinely lend him a hand. In the past few days, General Barton had not had a single peaceful sleep and was originally counting on Qian Xueying for so results. Who would have thought that woman had no good news at all?
“General!” The assistant carefully walked over, “The phone can’t get through.”
“What do you an?” General Barton turned his face.
“I tried several tis, but it couldn’t get through.” The assistant frowned, “I called Qian Xueying’s cell phone, and she directly hung up the call. When I called again… it was turned off.”
General Barton imdiately cursed, “Damn bitch!”
At this mont, Qian Xueying actually didn’t answer the calls from this side, there could only be one reason — that woman betrayed him!
“It seems, we can’t count on Qian Xueying’s side anymore.” The assistant looked at General Barton’s expression, “General, otherwise… should I arrange a plane to send Madam and them abroad first?”
The opponent’s military strength was obviously stronger than his own, and if a war really broke out, the Northwest was definitely not going to benefit, so the assistant inevitably reminded General Barton to leave a way out for himself.
General Barton took a light breath, then nodded. As the assistant turned to leave, he quickly called the assistant back, giving careful instructions,
“Rember, this matter must be handled extrely carefully, and not a single bit of information can be leaked.”
The reason General Barton left his wife and several children in the Northwest was mainly for two reasons: one, they were safer here; the other, to stabilize the military’s morale.
With him and his family here, his subordinates could naturally feel at ease fighting alongside him.
If the subordinates knew he had already moved his family away, they would naturally guess that he was preparing to abandon them, and thus, their morale would disintegrate.
The assistant nodded, “Don’t worry, I know!”
As the assistant left the office, General Barton walked again and stopped in front of a map on the wall.
On the map, the deploynt of Gan Yuan’s forces had already been marked with a red pen. At this ti, the opponent had already ford a semi-circle surrounding him, and General Barton’s gaze fell on the lower-left corner of Y Country.
So far, Gan Yuan seed to have had no contact with Caroline, and if Y Country did not intervene in such matters, perhaps he still had a glimr of hope.
No matter what, this ti, he couldn’t give up.
After so many years of preparation, he couldn’t let all his life’s efforts be defeated by a little girl.
