Text 0669 Script and director and real purpose

"What does this matter have to do with the military?"

Five minutes ago, Mr. President was still looking forward to a new day, but five minutes later, he already showed signs of a headache. "If the ship is gone, let people go and find it. I really don't understand what this has to do with the military."

He endured not swearing, and the military representative submitted a "Navy Expansion Plan" to the President's Cabinet and the Ministry of Defense early in the morning, and the head of the directly troubled Mr. President was buzzing.

Up to now, I have only heard of the reduction of the army, but I have not heard of the expansion.

Moreover, there is no need for the Federation to expand. In a short time, there is no possibility of war in the world. Even if it does, it has nothing to do with the Federation. The military's emergence at this time is obviously a bit inexplicable.

The Secretary of Defense was standing at the desk of Mr. President. He looked at the report in his hand, and then spread his hands. "Yesterday a federal freighter heading to Ameria was missing..."

Mr. President nodded impatiently, "I know, but what does this have to do with the military?"

The Secretary of Defense was a little embarrassed, "The military..." He quickly changed his words, "The Navy feels that this is very likely a trick of some countries. They want to see our jokes. Our cargo ship is in the federal home. The door will be lost, and the whole world will think that our navy is nothing but that."

"Even if we can defeat Gafra's fleet!"

After saying these words, the Secretary of Defense's tone was slightly lowered, not as passionate as he was just now, "Moreover, the navy's establishment is still a defensive establishment during the evasionist period, and it is a bit difficult to use."

When the president heard this, he flipped through the expansion plan on the table, and the room fell into a brief silence.

The Navy’s view is that it is currently in the golden age of the development of the Federal Navy. In the past, in order to prevent misunderstandings from some countries, the Federation had only one semi-complete naval formation.

A formal formation and a reserve formation. After the naval battle, in order to prevent other countries from considering the Federation as the main defensive enemy, the Federation did not expand the navy. This also means that the navy's organization has always maintained the scale of the escapism period.

The era of escapism was a thing of the past. At that time, the military and soldiers were not valued by society and could not help it. But now the navy is clearly very strong, and the federal policy has changed from conservative to radical. Some things must be changed.

For example, expansion. After the expansion, there will be more captains, more colonels and even generals. This is the key!

After all, it's for power.

There are already three or five generals in a full formation. There are so many **** generals. So many officers are waiting to be promoted. How can they be promoted without expansion?

Moreover, the commander-in-chief of the navy with only one formation and the commander-in-chief of the navy with many clusters are not the same in any respect.

So the Navy’s request for this expansion is naturally not surprising.

After more than half an hour, Mr. President had almost read it. He closed the report, clenched his fists against his chin, and thought seriously.

His ability to stand firm with the military has indeed given a lot of help, of course, this also has Truman's credit, he is a bridge connecting the military.

When the military gave him help, he should give feedback. This is the way the Federal President is an official-the people who helped me should give me double feedback.

If someone does not abide by this rule, then everyone will not choose him next time.

Mr. President is still thinking about re-election. It is impossible for him to give up the military, but now the expansion seems a bit...too radical.

This is not just a matter of simply approving and sending it to Congress for discussion, but considering the attitude of the entire international community.

The expansion of the navy means the strengthening of maritime military, which means that more strike forces can cross the Great East Ocean, which forms a terrible deterrent to all countries along the Great East Ocean.

What if these countries unite?

What if they further form a military alliance?

These **** need to think, it's not that simple.

Mr. President looked up at the Secretary of Defense, "What do you think?"

The Minister of National Defense pursed his lips and did not make a statement, but his failure to make a statement at this time is the biggest statement, which means that the position of the Ministry of Defense has been biased towards the military.

"You will really trouble me!" Mr. President grumbled unceremoniously. He could not refuse directly. After all, the support of the military is very important, and they cannot directly agree. This may bring additional politics. risk.

He considered it for a while and said, "Report it to Congress for discussion!"

There is a little smile on the face of the Secretary of Defense. The Federal Ministry of Defense and the military belong to two agencies, but they overlap. Approving the expansion of the Navy means that the Federation will have more generals, and some previous generals have the opportunity to go further. .

People from the Ministry of National Defense can jump back into the military to survive and get promoted again, and people in the military can also jump into the Ministry of National Defense to accumulate civilian work experience and lay a solid foundation for the promotion of senior generals in the future. This is beneficial to everyone. matter.

After watching the Secretary of Defense leave, Mr. President drank the coffee he had originally planned to savor slowly. He needed something to clear himself up, or calm down.

Agree, but don't push, it seems a bit stupid, but this time period is too sensitive.

He not only wants to stabilize the support of the voters that he has received, but also does not want to lose the support of those conservative voters. Any blind decision before the result is out is stupid, and he must be careful.

With the approval of Mr. President, the expansion of the navy was included in the process. At the same time, a large number of federal newspapers have begun to promote a topic-does the Federation need to show the world its strength?

From "Federal Daily" to "Daily Entertainment", whether it is serious current affairs and political publications, or the kind of lace tabloid that chases gossip and supplement girls all day, they have begun to ask this question.

We are already so strong, so should we let others know.

And one of the core events that promoted this incident was the disappearance of the freighter.

To be honest, if there is no promotion of public opinion, 99% of the people in the federal society will not care if a freighter disappears, because those have nothing to do with their lives, not at all.

There were no family members and no belongings on the freighter, and they would not be moved when they heard the news.

But when this matter is raised to the level of national dignity and national self-esteem, whether a country should show its strength or not, the enthusiasm it brings has detonated public opinion.

You must know that people were already embarrassed enough in escapism in the past few years, and the facts have proved that evasion is worthless, so retaliatory activism began to prevail, and people were more radical than ever.

"63.1% of people believe that disarmament should be stopped and the current navy should be expanded, and additional warships should be sent to protect the Federal merchant ships from pirates."

"Twenty-two percent of people believe that the current situation should be maintained, and that force should not be overly flaunted to cause misunderstandings among neighbors..."

The results of the polls in Lynch's readers' newspapers showed uncontrollable smiles on their faces, "The Federation is showing its strength from the inside out, and the future will be a better future."

Sitting around him were high-ranking men in navy uniforms, including two generals.

Everyone’s face was full of smiles, and they were obviously satisfied with the whole thing.

Lynch’s aircraft company is actually just a link, a node, and its value is to give the Navy and members of Congress more opportunities to contact.

What really gave Lynch the naval friendship was his plan to promote the expansion of the navy.

When he proposed this plan, Mr. Truman knew that the Navy could not refuse.

The one who was guarded by some low-rank naval officers in the middle was a lieutenant admiral. He has been a lieutenant admiral for almost 20 years, and he has not had a few years.

I thought that in this life, I could only retire with the rank of lieutenant general, and then left a regretful remnant life, but I didn't expect that there would be such a chance in the end!

Once expanded, the generals in the navy will more or less change their positions, the colonel will become the brigadier general, the brigadier general will become major general, the major general will become lieutenant general, the lieutenant general will become...admiral!

Of course, if you want to promote this matter, you must get the approval of 60% of the members of the Congressional Military Committee ~lightnovelpub.net~ and more than 50% of the members of the Congress vote in favor. This is not easy.

Due to historical and political issues, the military was very unwelcome in the past. It was probably similar to the kind of "can neither defend the country nor make contributions". Under the distorted propaganda of politicians, people don’t like soldiers, and they don’t want their family members to join the army. .

So the Navy didn’t consider this matter at first, until Lynch mentioned his ideas and plans. There was a great success rate, and the whole thing did not require anyone to pay a penny. Lynch paid out of his pocket to lobby Congress for approval. Navy expansion.

Faced with such a rich and influential friend who is willing to establish a relationship with the military, how could the Navy reject him?

Not to mention that Mr. Truman also played a key role here. As the political spokesperson introduced by the Navy, his attitude can also affect the Navy's choice to a large extent.

"Mr. Lynch, do you think we have a chance to succeed?", the lieutenant general made no secret of his desire, and the questions asked were quite fruitful.

The major general next to him and the other school officials all looked at Lynch with fiery eyes. This was the moment they had been looking forward to most in the past ten years.

Lynch nodded without hesitation, "As long as I follow my script, the Navy can expand before the presidential election."

"Gentlemen, once we can get the opportunity to expand before the presidential election, it means that we will be able to carry out a second expansion during Mr. President's tenure. By then, the size of the navy will far exceed any time since the founding of the Union. "

"This will be the most glorious era of the Navy!"
