After hearing Yu Zhong's question, Defense Minister Pablo Garcia was immediately at a loss for words. With his big hand like a leaf fan, he pressed the case hard on the conference table, and finally sat down slumped.
An imperceptible smile appeared on Yu Zhong's lips. Defense Minister Pablo Garcia was a decent soldier, but he did not belong to his power. Naturally, he could not let Pablo Garcia shine. In Yu Zhong's heart, Pablo Garcia would be better off going to the frontline star system to command the fleet and fight, instead of staying in the high position of Minister of Defense. The federal election for Fuluo is coming soon. If the government changes, the position of Minister of Defense should also be replaced by someone who is obedient.
"Destroy our civilian passenger spacecraft!" All the federal police officers couldn't help but take a breath of air. These top leaders of the Federation are all human beings. They know that if they agree with Pablo Garcia, they will be ousted by the citizens of the Federation immediately. Although federal soldiers have many fewer worries than police officers in government departments, none of them wants to bear the infamy of massacring their own citizens.
The conference room suddenly fell silent, and you could only hear the "rustling" sound of some people's uneasy footsteps rubbing against the floor!
Some people kept peeking at Asimov and Yu Zhong. According to his position, Asimov should issue this order; according to his power, Yu Zhong can issue this order.
Yu Zhong sneered in his heart: "Hey, at this time, I still respect the Federal Constitution. Each of you has a higher status than me, and it's not my turn!" An attitude that has nothing to do with himself. .
The FBI subordinates have not yet handed him the preliminary results of the investigation of 100 hijacked spacecraft, so Yu Zhong will not take action easily. His current principle is that as long as the FBI does not assume responsibility, everything else will be allowed to develop freely!
Asimov felt everyone's attention and had to step forward to break the silence. He was the person with the highest status here. He raised his eyebrows and said solemnly: "This matter is too important and it is not for us to decide." Come on, let our Head of State decide!"
Hearing Asimov's words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly responded: "Yes! Yes! How can it be our turn to decide such a major event! Chief of Staff, you'd better hurry up as soon as possible Inform the Führer!"
Yu Zhong remained silent and quietly closed his eyes to rest. He got some inspiration from this hijacking incident and quickly planned some things in his brain, but he still needed something to confirm. At the same time, he thought to himself: "Huh, Chief of Staff, don't think that you can avoid taking the blame for this. The head of state. That guy Baierden is the most cunning among officials, otherwise he wouldn't have been rushing back from abroad when he received the "level one crisis response." "
Ordinary people in the federation thought that Biden sometimes appeared to be sick, old and dim, and let the power-hungry and foolish deputy head of state, Harris, help handle government affairs, but they did not know that these were all matters with great hidden dangers. Each time, after Deputy Head of State Harris had almost handled the situation, Bayerden's condition suddenly improved, and he took back the power given to Deputy Head of State Harris, leaving Deputy Head of State Harris, a woman with a somewhat dark skin, to rejoice in vain.
As the director of the FBI, Yu Zhong used his all-pervasive agents to investigate Baierden's physical condition: "That old guy is in great health, and he is still ambitious to run for the next head of state!" I can't bear to think of this. Zumi glanced at Harris, who was a little out of shape next to her.
Harris has slightly dark skin, brown shoulder-length hair, wearing a white suit, and a pure white pearl necklace around her neck. The charming luster of pearls and the gentle and sophisticated temperament soften Harris' strong suit look.
Speaking of which, Harris is also a legendary figure in the Fulo Federation. She is a hybrid of the Barking Tribe and the Deno Tribe. When she was young, she had delicate eyebrows and beautiful appearance. She was a perfect beauty.
Because of her ancestry and skin color, Harris was discriminated against and excluded. This made her aware of the issues of ancestry and skin color, and determined to change something by entering politics.
Hard work paid off, and after Harris hitched a ride on Bairden, she became the first female deputy head of state of the Foro Federation, and a mixed-race female deputy head of state.
This woman may have been left with a shadow in her heart by the oppression she suffered since childhood, and she is extremely passionate about power. It's a pity that the deputy head of the Fu Luo Federation is the shadow of the head of state. His status is usually not high and his actual status is not high.
There is no power. The deputy head of state only has power when the head of state dies or delegates authority to them. Biden took advantage of this and asked Harris to take the blame for him time and time again. Today, at such a meeting, Harris only had the right to attend and had no right to speak or make decisions, so she remained silent.
Asimov is the highest-ranking federal official here, so he said to Moses: "Mr. Moses, please connect to the special line of His Excellency the Head of State!"
"Copy that!" As soon as Moses finished speaking, a huge holographic portrait appeared in mid-air in the core conference hall of the Octagon Building, and every member of the Federation present could see him.
He was an old man with no beard on his face, a slender face, gray hair, and a very friendly smile. As soon as everyone saw him, they stood up immediately, and all the soldiers gave him a federal military salute. This is Baierden, the head of the Fulo Federation.
"Haha, you're welcome, please sit down quickly! Has there been any change in the matter of hijacking the spaceship? You won't contact me if I don't let you! Chief of Staff, please tell me!" Baierden Said in a friendly manner.
Asimov stood up again after sitting down, gave a military salute, and then told what happened just now. Bairdon thought for a while and said seriously to Asimov: "Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, if the strategic base points in our galaxy are known to the enemy, it will be equivalent to destroying our strategic depth, and the Federation will be in extreme danger!"
Speaking of this, Baierden looked embarrassed: "Although I know very well that the situation is urgent and I feel like giving an order, I am now on my way back to the country, and it will take three hours to reach the country. But those hateful robbers hijacked our The passenger spacecraft has been cruising near the strategic base point. If they test the accurate coordinates of our strategic base point within 3 hours, the consequences will be disastrous!" Z.br>
This is when Bayden suddenly patted his head and said distressedly: "Oh... my head hurts so much! I am abroad and cannot make reasonable and useful analysis and decisions on these domestic matters immediately, and there is no time. Allow! Okay, let's do it. As the head of the Furo Federation, I authorize Deputy Head of State Harris to be fully responsible for resolving this crisis. You can use any method you think is right!" When he said this, there was a cold light in his eyes. , his entire face was tense, and his tone was too stern to allow others to violate him. At this moment, Baiden's majesty and domineering power as the head of the Fulo Federation were fully demonstrated.
Seeing this scene, Yu Zhong thought to himself: "Look, I knew this old fox would pass the responsibility to others. Humph, I really admire him for showing such dignity even when he lets others take the blame."
Thinking about this, Yu Zhong turned to look at Harris next to him. Harris was surprised at first and then turned pale. She also realized how difficult this matter was.
Harris took a deep breath, nodded unnaturally towards Bayden and said, "I obey... I obey, Your Excellency the Head of State!" At this time, anyone with a discerning eye could feel the reluctance in Harris's heart.
Yu Zhong thought to himself: "I'm talking to Deputy Head of State, this is the inevitable result of your deep attachment to Baierden, and your fate will be determined by others. I, Yu Zhong, will never allow others to treat me like this, so I will control the federation by any means necessary!" "
Harris had mixed feelings in her heart at this moment. Instead of the joy of gaining power, there was a trace of fear hanging over her heart. She would not dare to issue an order to kill tens of thousands of legal citizens of the Fulo Federation at once. Then, after her power was taken back by Bayerden, she might be sacrificed at any time.
Harris glanced around at the federal police officers present, and finally settled on Yu Zhong and Asimov. She knew that these two people were the most influential people in the Fulo Federation besides Baierden. Asking these two people for advice could reduce the risk of being liquidated in the future. After all, they are jointly and severally responsible for their ideas.
Harris cleared her throat and asked Asimov: "Chief of Staff, do you also agree to destroy those 100 passenger spacecraft?" Her question was very skillful. As long as Asimov said yes, he would do it in the future. Take responsibility, typical of a slippery politician.
Asimov stood up, gave Harris a military salute, and said loudly: "Deputy Head of State, at this moment you have the power of the head of the Fulo Federation, and I will completely obey any of your orders!" It is worthy of being promoted to "Five-Star" The existence of "General" has no political skills at all.
Worse than Harris, he placed his status very low. The subtext was that I only carried out orders and performed my duties. The decision-making power had nothing to do with me, and he had no objection to Harris at all.
Harris was helpless. She was not the head of the Fulo Federation. She really had nothing to do with Asimov, the chief of staff with the rank of "five-star general". She turned her head to Yu Zhong and asked in a sincere tone: "Director Yu, What do you think we should do with those 100 hijacked spaceships!" This time, Harris changed her approach. She didn't play tricks and asked Yu Zhong for his opinion directly and openly. She understands the difficulty of this matter. The top federal officials here are not stupid, and little cleverness is useless.
Everyone around the U-shaped conference table also looked at Yu Zhong, wanting to see what the FBI director who had just objected to destroying 100 hijacked spaceships had to say.
Yu Zhong really didn't want to simply destroy the 100 hijacked spacecraft. Others only saw the strategic base points between the Nevada Galaxy and the Monforte Galaxy, while he saw the strategic base points of the 18 galaxies owned by the Fulo Federation.
The forces behind this group of robbers must be extremely powerful, and there may be their internal agents in the Fulo Federation, so they can hijack the federal spacecraft without anyone noticing. If they can't figure out the ins and outs of the robbers, they can hijack once, they can hijack countless times, and finally they can test the strategic base points of all galaxies in the Fulo Federation.
