Compared to Jiang Chen's last sentence, the reporters were more interested in his penultimate sentence.
Vice President, Wall Street … conspiracy?
There was simply too much room for imagination here.
If this sentence was said by someone else, it would be fine. The eight presidents who died during their terms of office, the cause of death of each was enough to create a conspiracy theory of no less than 100,000 words.
However, this sentence was said by none other than Jiang Chen.
Everyone knew that Celestial Trade helped the UA search and rescue the missing Air Force One some time ago. They wouldn't believe Jiang Chen's words were completely baseless! Obviously, Celestial Trade must have discovered something!
All the reporters at the scene faintly smelled the scent of big news.
However, just as they planned to ask, Jiang Chen did not give them a chance to ask questions. He directly announced the end of the press conference and turned to the backstage.
"It's too irrational to throw out this news at the press conference! If they know that we are also looking for the black box, then they will definitely stop us at all costs, even … "Natasha, who was chasing behind Jiang Chen, complained incessantly.
"Even fake a black box or a body, right? As long as Boeing assists, it's easy for them to do so. " Jiang Chen opened the door, sat in, and looked at Natasha, who also sat in, and said with a smile, "My dear Natasha, you have been away from the KGB for too long. Use your chest and think about it. Even if we didn't throw out this smoke bomb, would they let us search for the whereabouts of the black box?"
Natasha raised her eyebrows and wanted to refute. However, after thinking about it carefully, she suddenly realized that it did make some sense.
"Any war needs a reasonable excuse. Otherwise, even if we win, the mess left behind will be too much for us to handle." Seeing that Natasha didn't speak, Jiang Chen smiled and then said, "In the next week or two, our Seagull-class and the Orbital Airborne Brigade will be returning from Mars. When it enters the geosynchronous orbit, the UA can prepare to surrender. And before that, we can make some appropriate preparations. "
Although Natasha expressed doubts about Jiang Chen's confidence, she finally gave up on this point. Anyway, it would only take a few days. Whether he was bluffing or not would be revealed soon.
"It's a pity for Trump, war is not a good choice." Natasha changed the topic and sighed softly, "At least he is back in the country. With Russian agents and Ghost Agents watching, even if the FBA wants to play tricks, they have to think twice."
"I agree with your first point of view. War is indeed not the best choice, but now it seems that we have no better choice than war. Speaking of Trump, it doesn't matter to us whether he is dead or not. "
After a pause, Jiang Chen suddenly smiled.
"Believe it or not, even if he is dead, I can make the dead come back to life."
Natasha was stunned.
Her originally clear eyes were suddenly filled with a trace of confusion, and a layer of mist gradually appeared.
When Jiang Chen saw Natasha's expression, he immediately cursed in his mind.
Marina Ivanovna Nikolaeva, a former KGB agent, the mother of Natasha, and the knot between Natasha and her father that could never be untied.
"… I know what you are thinking, but it was impossible at that time." He stroked the blonde hair and looked at the excited and confused Natasha. He let out a sigh. "When you die, if you just need the same comfort, then cloning technology can do it. But you should know that it's fake. "
Jiang Chen knew what she was thinking.
She wanted to resurrect her mother who left her when she was a child.
However, this was impossible.
Even with science, it was impossible to bring the dead back to life. Natasha also knew this, but after hearing Jiang Chen say "can bring the dead back to life", she couldn't help but feel a trace of desire.
"You bastard!"
She secretly wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes. Because her embarrassing side was seen, Natasha's cheeks were slightly red.
Perhaps to cover up this embarrassing scene, she suddenly rushed up with tears in her eyes, kissed Jiang Chen's lips fiercely, and pressed him down on the sofa. After a while, she raised her head while riding on him. Her full chest heaved violently, and she said fiercely.
"You shouldn't have given me hope!"
"Sorry, I didn't know you would have such a big reaction." Jiang Chen reached out and gently fiddled with the hair on her cheek, but his hand was pinched.
The two fell into a speechless stare.
Just as the atmosphere in the car gradually became ambiguous, a weak cough suddenly came from the driver's seat in the front row.
Natasha's eyes met Ayesha's in the rearview mirror. She blushed, climbed down from Jiang Chen, and sat upright in the seat.
Ayesha, who was holding the steering wheel, looked awkward.
Although she didn't mind what the two were doing, she was driving after all.
After hesitating for a long time, she finally chose to cough weakly to indicate that she was still here.
…
On February 18th, it rained heavily in northern Colombia.
For the North Colombian soldiers besieging Bucaramanga, it was undoubtedly a torment. Not to mention the infestation of poisonous insects and frequent landslides and mudslides after the rainstorm, just the muddy mountain road was a big test for the logistics of the North Colombian army.
Because of the heavy rain, air support could not be obtained.
When the NATO Third Mechanized Division withdrew to Barranquilla, the two mountain divisions responsible for attacking Bucaramanga were forced to stop the offensive. The price they had to pay to attack the city without supporting firepower was unbearable, let alone a city in the Andes.
It was a fortress without walls!
The eastern battlefield was in a deadlock, and the central battlefield was also not optimistic.
The bad weather made heavy bombers unable to reach the battlefield. The coalition forces advancing in the direction of Medellin could only rely on howitzers, self-propelled artillery, and naval guns to support the battlefield.
However, the South Colombian Army was quite cunning and did not intend to fight the NATO Coalition Force on the plains. Not only were the main forces stationed in the urban area that NATO was wary of, but the rest of the forces also infiltrated into the rear of the NATO Coalition Force to engage in guerrilla warfare.
The consecutive days of heavy rain were undoubtedly a test for the attackers.
The NATO Coalition Force and North Colombia invested a total of more than ten divisions in the northern area of Medellin. Not only did they have more than 100,000 soldiers, but they also had more than 2,000 tanks. The NATO Coalition Force, which originally planned to take Medellin in three days and advance to Bogota in five days, was now nailed to the suburbs of Medellin and was in a stalemate with the Celestial Trade Army that came from the rear.
No one expected this war to be so difficult.
Whether it was armor, firepower, or even numbers, NATO had the advantage at present. However, South Colombia did not become the second Iraq, and the "Desert Storm-style" victory was not replicated.
What made the NATO Coalition Force commanders even more anxious was that so far, they had not seen the shadow of the orbital airborne soldiers. Those iron lumps were like the Sword of Damocles hanging high. They believed it was above their heads, but they just didn't know when it would fall.
Compared to the NATO Coalition Force fighting on the front line, the new President Mike Pence, who had just completed his inauguration, faced no less pressure than General Felton commanding on the front line.
He knew very well that if he could not end the war in a short time, the pressure from the country would put him in a difficult position. The UA was slipping into a quagmire deeper than the Vietnam War, and in this quagmire, there was an enemy they did not want to face.
There seemed to be only two choices in front of Mike Pence.
Either add another bundle of firewood to the stove, or draw the fire out of the stove …
