The atmosphere in the meeting room was a little heavy.

The policy of neutrality has always been the political platform of Lemar's various parties. They are far away from other countries, and their lonely perseverance is in the Eastern Ocean.

They don't need to establish diplomatic relations with other countries, and they don't need to get involved in those terrible wars.

But now, they seem to be being forced to make a choice!

This incident is not a simple isolated incident, it is actually the final effect of many choices stacked together.

Mr. President is a little depressed. In fact, he is a little bit regretful now, and the top leaders of the People's Democratic Party are also a little bit regretful. If they agreed to the federation at that time, they might not be so troubled now.

In fact, Lemar's feelings for the Federation are a little deeper than those for Peng Jieao.

At least they were all neutral countries at one time, during World War I...

At some point their political stance was also unified, and it was much easier to accept the Federals than the Penteos.

But now, the problem has become a little more complicated.

In the end, Mr. President did not make a decision immediately, but discussed first, and after discussing a unified result, he decided how to contact.

The Federation has "our own people" in Lemar. When the cloud of war suddenly enveloped the world, the Federation began to actively start the "Dandelion Project".

Dandelion is a very interesting plant. When its seeds are mature, the seeds will gather in the corolla and become a fluffy ball, and then blown by the wind, these seeds will be scattered everywhere with the wind.

The core of the Dandelion Project is like this floating seed.

It is possible that tens of thousands of special workers were scattered around the world after Penteeau's conscription began.

Many of them are lurkers, who live in the local area and integrate into the local life.

Because they still have time, they still have one or two years, enough for them to settle down.

And another small part is constantly buying middle and high-level managers in various countries.

This is not something shameful, everything is for the national security of the Federation.

At the secret meeting of the Congressional Appropriations Committee, it was said that a lot of money was specially approved for the acquisition of middle and high-level officials and important officials in these countries.

In Lemar, too, someone was bought off.

So that night, Mr. Truman knew the news.

What he cares about is not the President Lemar, his cabinet members, and some issues discussed among the Democratic Party, but the Penteo people, who found Lemar at this time.

Soon a map of the world appeared in front of him. As a former senior soldier, he knew exactly how the map should look.

In fact, whether it is Sadoras or Lemar, they are all in the northeast of the Federation. In other words, if the Penteos want to attack from this aspect, then the northern part of the east coast will become the front line.

But Mr. Truman's gaze continued north to Marilo.

Everyone knows that Peng Jieo has the strongest army in the world, and they will not simply fight a landing battle with the Federation on the territory of the Federation.

This is not in line with the spirit and ideology of Penteo's powerful army, so he believes that the eyes of the Penteo people should be on Mariro.

Marillo has achieved freedom with the "help" of the Federals, and they have begun to learn to oppose and resist violence, which just makes them look like they are in anarchy.

Of course, this is also an inevitable process towards freedom and fairness. Only when they are scattered first and then closed again can they become a whole.

They lack a unified regime in their territory. Once the Penteos land from Maliro...

That would be a disaster for the Federation!

While researching the history of Penteo's past wars, Mr. Truman discovered a not-so-interesting phenomenon.

The Penteos are very good at getting the conquered on their side, and then go with them to conquer others!

Once they land in Mariro, and the Mariro are not their opponents, it is very likely that the Penteo will engulf the Mariro to form a more terrifying ground force and launch a frontal ground offensive from the north!

This is definitely a disaster for the Federation!

The only good news right now is that the population of some areas in the north is decreasing because of the cold weather, so that these areas can be put into a state of war without mobilizing ordinary people to leave their homes.

He thought for a moment, and then recorded the matter in his notebook. He needed to communicate and discuss with those from the Ministry of Defense.

And this also shows the importance of Lemar more and more. It is like a springboard between the two worlds. Whoever controls this place first will be able to prevent the other party from easily causing harm to himself.

To the south of the Eastern Ocean, close to the equator and the tropics, there are many islands. These islands can block the enemy's attack, but it is not as simple as the north.

Once the Penteos had established themselves in Lemar, Mr. Truman did not think that Sedoras would be able to withstand their invasion of Marillo.

The reason is simple. With Lemar as a supply station, their transport ships can completely bypass Sedoras and approach Marillo from a more northerly direction or other directions.

Sadoras can only be said to be a nail, nailing large-scale operations in the Eastern Ocean, but there is no good way for small-scale or rapid invasions!

And Sadoras is Sadoras after all, it is not a state of the Federation, and many things are not so easy to do.

The people of Sadoras can give up a port and a nearby island for the federal people to build fortifications, and they can't ask for more.

This also means that Lemar will become very important!

National affairs are dealt with in the Federation at a significantly faster rate than those... not particularly important.

Lynch was also asked to attend the meeting because he was the contractor for the Modric Port fortifications.

On this island, he not only built a large military port, but also built a large airport, and built many forts on the surrounding small islands.

If there is a change in strategy, Lynch can make timely adjustments here.

The whole meeting was rather boring, and most of the time was spent in silence. In the end, the Strategic Command believed that there was more than half the possibility that the Penteo people would open the situation from Mariro.

This is indeed a disaster for the Federation. Once the local war starts, no matter whether it wins or loses, it will be an unbearable failure for the Federation!

"We can control Lemar first...", an officer of the strategic command put forward his own thoughts, "On the one hand, we can do these possible preventions."

"We can first deploy some fortifications in the important hubs in the north, and deploy some mines in the eastern ocean of Mariro."

"Then proceed to let Lemar stand on our side." He glanced at Lynch and smiled, "I personally suggest that the project of Modoric Port can be stopped on the surface, and we can talk to Lemar first. Conduct a second round of diplomatic negotiations."

Lynch has no attitude towards this. He said that he can stop or start work at any time. Anyway, the federal government does not lack his money in the military budget.

Exchanging diplomacy with attitude is a very common diplomatic method, and it is also an expression of sincerity.

Mr. Truman is now in charge of diplomacy. He thought about it and agreed first.

Making a decision without touching it is a manifestation of being irresponsible to yourself, to your work, and to the future of the Federation!

Lynch originally wanted to leave first, but Mr. Truman wanted to say something to him, so he asked him to wait.

As a result, it took about forty minutes to wait.

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

Opening the door and getting into the car, Mr. Truman first apologized to Lynch for taking so long to come out, then he sighed, "More and more things bother me, and for the first time I find that my energy is a little bit Can't keep up."

The war is getting closer, and some members of the World Development Council expressed the hope that the Federation would best send some troops to help them resist the attack of Penteo's army.

Those who express this kind of willingness are all small countries, which do not have any strong military confrontation capabilities.

Now the federation is the core country and is in the development stage. If it is rejected, it will not be good.

But if it is agreed, it will weaken the Federation's own strategic plan. Now that Peng Jieo has started to launch diplomatic tactics, maybe the war will break out in the first half of next year!

For the first time, Mr. Truman felt that there was not enough time and energy. Even if he worked until two or three o'clock in the evening every day and got up at eight o'clock the next morning to continue working, there were still things he couldn't finish.

Lynch looked at him rubbing his cheeks tiredly, with a half-smile, "Actually, we have easy choices for some things, but for some reason we don't want to make ourselves so easy."

Mr. Truman turned his head to look at Lynch. He felt that Lynch's words had other meanings.

Lynch smiled, "If Lemar's president can't stand on our side, why don't we change to a president who supports us in the last period of time?"

"They also have many domestic parties and regional forces, and these can be used."

"There will always be someone willing to stand by our side~lightnovelpub.net~ We just need to give them a hand!"

Mr. Truman was thoughtful. In fact, they also discussed this consideration when they discussed in a small area.

But in the end, they chose a more complex approach.

Sometimes people are always constrained by human ethics and moral principles. They know that some problems are easy to solve, but they always see troublesome solutions.

It's not that hard to get across.

Mr. Truman didn't answer, but he seemed to have made some new decisions in his mind.

He then talked about what he wanted to say to Lynch.

"I'm too busy during this time, and I don't have time to take care of the election office. If you have time, help me take care of it."

"There are not many people I can trust, and there are even fewer people who can help me at this time. You are one!"
