Location: America Pentagon Personnel: America Pentagon Chief/Amerika Secretary of Defense - Austin Austin

rubbed his sour eyes, and after withdrawing from the previous nervous state, the physical discomfort immediately came to the door again, just now with his impulse and perseverance, he ordered these old diseases to make way for himself, At that moment, he felt as if he had found a little bit of the feeling of his youth.

But now, his thigh began to ache again, and the shrapnel in it seemed to remind him that he was old, both physically and mentally far inferior to when he was young, and a moment of perseverance could allow him to overcome the pain in his body for a short time, but this was only temporary after all, and it couldn't be taken care of forever...

But ah....

Wasn't he like this in the past, using the blood and perseverance of his youth to order those difficulties that could not be overcome to make way for himself, and to use the sword in his hand for his actions... The gun in his hand carves a path for himself, and if anyone dares to stand in his way, then grab his head and order him to make way for himself.

At that time, compared to myself, I had very few things in my hands, nothing, and there were not many people who could do things for myself, and everything around me needed to be solved by myself, but even so, those enemies and difficulties that were considered impossible to overcome made way for themselves.

Because it's his own order....

I vaguely remember that I was seriously injured at that time, and my whole body was in sharp pain, and now I think back on how I survived it at that time?

Maybe it's because of the youth...

And now, he is the Minister of Defense of América, the supreme administrator of all armies, able to manage all armies, this position is a height that many people can't even look up to, but it is also what countless people yearn for, but...

But...... There's always something missing...

Although the Pentagon's operational command room is much more advanced than the previous front-line command post, and it has the most authority, and can call on the arms of any department at will, but on weekdays... Austin was in the center of the military power, and when he was in command, he always felt that something was missing...

Is it the loss of management and command of the army?

No...... I'm still in control of everything...

Is it a loss of control of the battlefield? Your own brain is not as good as it used to be?

It doesn't seem to be... My mind is still active, and I can still prepare for what I think...

Is the body not as good as it used to be?

Austin silently looked at his hands, the passage of time even his own hands have not let go, he can always leave his own traces anywhere.

Austin then looked at Mr. President in front of him, who had been eroded by the years just like himself.

Got it....

Austin understands what's missing....

What's missing... It turned out to be the original intention, and his original intention was wrapped in layers of calluses over the years, and one after another ravines were like chains deeply strained into the calluses, and the original intention of his former heart was firmly located in the body of this old dragon clock, and he could no longer reveal half of it...

"It turns out that I'm still old..."Austin sighed slightly, and in a trance, he seemed to be really old, and the original harsh words were not so difficult to accept at the moment.

Suddenly, he seemed to be able to understand the words of the person in front of him, and understood what he meant, but...

I still feel a little disgusted...

It's like an ignorant child in the eyes of adults, even if you understand the meaning of the adult's words in your heart, know the connotation and understand the true meaning, but... I still can't stop feeling disgusted in my heart, but this time it has changed from simple irritability to... Helpless....

The helplessness of knowing that you can't change the other person, the helplessness of knowing that what you do has no meaning, the helplessness of knowing that you can't do anything...

Helpless...... It's so helpless....

......

"I'm sorry for the tone I used to deal with the councillors." Mr. President smiled slightly, and Austin said with a slight sigh.

"Hurry up, you... There's a lot to say, right..."Austin said suddenly, sometimes people change very suddenly, comprehension and growth are in a trance, if it was before, he might have just ignored him and stared at him with his own eyes, and now...

Let's relax your body a little bit, so that your muscles don't have to be so tight...

"Huh?" The president was stunned at first, because Austin on weekdays would not use this state to talk to himself, what caused him to change? Or is he still unable to keep it after all?

"Hehe, I didn't expect you to learn this..." The president smiled slightly, but it could be seen that he didn't seem to like this very much, but at the moment his smile was more ugly than crying, maybe this was also his true feelings.

The two old friends, at this moment, actually changed the way and attitude of dialogue between each other...

It's ridiculous to say that he always hoped that his old friend would understand him now, but when his old friend actually stepped into that ranks, he would feel sorry again, and feel that his old friend was also polluted...

"Learn from you, hurry up, I'm going to see the survivors after I explain it, if we can know from them who knows the situation that day, we can avoid this war."

Austin's voice sounded a little tired, and it seemed that he didn't care about his words and actions at all, all he cared about now was whether the damn war could be ended, whether he could stop it from breaking out.

“...... I'll tell you about that later, but now I want to ask you how long it will take to get to the grassroots level if I issue an order to the army now. "Mr. President doesn't seem to be asking the question itself, but confirming something with Austin.

"If it is to assemble troops, it only takes half an hour for the states and bases under the command of the Pentagon to assemble and attack anywhere."

Austin immediately replied that this was his confidence in the strength of America's army, and this was only a conservative estimate, now that the automatic reorganization of the army has been completed, the deployment and transportation of personnel are more concentrated at the command level, and if the troops are transferred to the front line to carry out strike missions, with the support of global bases, it only takes ten minutes to achieve a military strike anywhere in the world.

"But what if it's a decree? Especially with regard to decrees within our borders. The president asked again.

"What do you mean...

After all, he has been friends with Mr. President for many years, and Austin certainly understands what the president's words mean, and now the domestic economic situation has not been very good, and the president has been trying to find ways to improve the current situation, but due to various restrictions of the system, the issuance and implementation of various decrees has always been a headache.

And now he actually said so....

"It seems that you, who don't care much about politics, know this very well..."The president smiled again, but bitterly.

"Remember the legacy of the last war?" The president asked.

"Of course I remember that we lost a lot for wheat and rice... There is so much land that cannot be cultivated, and our paper money, our money, is less than gold can be exchanged. Austin said slowly, he doesn't care about or get involved in politics, but that doesn't mean he doesn't understand, in fact, he knows better than many members of Congress about the current situation at the grassroots level of the entire American society.

But he is powerless....

"But we can solve these problems." Mr. President said, this time his voice was sonorous and unquestionable, as if he were telling the truth.

But Austin still can't tell the difference, and in the face of his old friend, he can't tell the truth from the lie many times, and even if he does, it's meaningless.

"What do you want to say?" Austin, who was already tired, didn't want to continue to dwell on the issue.

"We need old friends of time." Upon hearing Austin say this, Mr. President smiled with relief, at least he was back to his normal state.

It's good....

"You know, we have a lot of problems right now, but what we need is time, a time that will allow us to solve problems and an opportunity and time to be able to execute our orders at maximum efficiency." The president didn't have words full, but Austin already knew what the president meant.

"But this opportunity needs to be created by ourselves, and I want to end this meaningless race..."Mr. President said his purpose, as for whether Austin in front of him will choose to believe, it doesn't matter, he will still do the orders he gives and do it much better than others.

"Then I understand, but I still reserve my opinion on this, and if I'm not mistaken, you have another thing to say..." Austin looked directly at the president, he knew the character of the old friend in front of him, and called him without even a secretary in charge of recording the conversation, it was definitely not that simple.

"It's time to give me an answer about the survivors and the war." Austin's gaze was firmly fixed on Mr. President, and motioned for the other party to answer his question head-on, and not to try to escape.

"That's what we're going to say next, and that's what I—" The president deliberately sold a pass.

"The real reason for calling you here—" the president nodded, he had expected Austin's question, he looked at Austin and said.

"There have been some small changes in Europe, the Fourth World War has broken out, and what the survivors see and hear is now less important..."

Austin was shocked and angry at the same time, he never expected that this old friend in front of him would dare to do this, and dare to use his authority to do this in such a matter.

"Alborne! Do you know what you're doing!! Austin roared angrily, his hands slammed on the table, and the angry sound echoed throughout the conference room, but Alben in front of him looked at the roaring Austin very calmly, after all, as the president of a country and a qualified politician, he would not let his facial expressions get out of control because of this.

Being able to change your facial expressions anytime and anywhere, and to keep all your emotions in your heart is the most basic cultivation of a politician...

"Austin, don't get excited." Alben stretched out his hand and motioned for Austin to sit down and calm down his emotions, but how could Austin calm his emotions at this moment, this is not a playhouse.

"Do you know what we're talking about at the moment?!" Now Austin's mood is not calmed by a few words, he is angry at Alben's self-inflicted assertions, angry that Alben actually used his power to empty himself, and then started an irreparable war.

What does this mean? It means that he, the Minister of Defense, has been hollowed out, and once the war is lost or lost, he will be a scapegoat, and he can obey orders, but he will be falsely accused if he refuses to accept it.

But Alben's subsequent words completely extinguished Austin's anger and made Austin's whole person completely stunned.

"It wasn't me who gave the order to take the initiative, or it wasn't the Soviet Union, but East Germany..." Alben then pushed the file bag in front of him in front of Austin and said: "Take a good look, this war is different from what we imagined, we... It's time to repeat what our ancestors did more than 100 years ago.

Austin looked at Alben with a puzzled face, his first instinct was disbelief, but Alben had considerable confidence in the contents of the file, and Austin couldn't believe the contents.

"Nazis..."Austin was shocked when he opened the contents of the portfolio, he was shocked by what was on it, he couldn't believe it at all, but the information on it...

"We can't stop this war anymore, so I'm saying that the survivors don't matter anymore." There seemed to be something hidden in the president's words, at least that's what Austin's instincts at this moment told him, and what the president in front of him was going to hide.

"Will they be liquidated and buried in Arlington Cemetery?" Austin asked.

"Of course not." To Austin's surprise, this time Alborn's answer was very pleasant, "It seems that my previous words caused you to have some kind of misunderstanding, and it doesn't matter that they need a 'gardening vacation', after all, I believe that their hearts have been hit a lot, and they need to recuperate for a while." Alben's answer was so happy that Austin was a little skeptical.

"Well... I know, but I'll receive them. Austin said that this is also a warning and reminder to Alben that he will arrange for someone to stay by their side.

"That's as it should be." As for Austin's words, Alben knew that he didn't plan to attack those survivors, but now that the war has started, these voices and questions can only be issued after the war is over, and then these are the cards to be played when rebuilding order, but before that, they need to remain silent and rest.

But... Alben knew that the question was only incidental, and that this was not what Austin really wanted to know.

"It's coming," Alben calculated silently, waiting for Austin to ask.

"But why are you hiding it from me? He even used his authority to let no one inform me. "Austin asked one of his biggest concerns, and the reason he really couldn't bear to be really angry was the president's deliberate concealment, which was largely tantamount to betrayal.

"That's really why I called you here alone, and because there aren't any people around." Alben lowered his voice.

"We have traitors on our side."
