Guide to Galactic Dominance

In the White House of the United States, President Bellevin, who is approaching the end of his term, is in a state of distress.

Senior officials from the Pentagon reported: "Air Force Commodore Cornell, who caused the San Francisco incident, has been suspended and investigated, and the military's recovery of the wreckage of the crashed fighter jet has basically been completed."

Bellevin nodded. He also understood that Cornell was the scapegoat of the Pentagon and the White House in this matter, taking the blame when something went wrong. Because the order to shoot down the alien fighter jets was approved by President Bellevin and ordered by the Pentagon, Cornell was just executing the order. It's just that he failed to complete this task, and also caused a series of extremely bad effects, so he had to be dealt with.

NASA Administrator Knight also reported to Bellevin: "It has been determined that all the alien fleets originally located in the sun have arrived in the earth's low-Earth orbit. We do not have the ability to observe them in real time, so we cannot accurately determine how long their voyage took. time, but the most conservative estimate is that it only took them less than three minutes. This is calculated from the time we lost the observation of the target near the sun to the time we discovered them near the earth, and it is very inaccurate. But even In this way, they also conducted a faster-than-light voyage that subverted physics."

This situation also caused a stir in NASA. Tech geeks marveled that super-light travel is really possible. Some people couldn't help but be excited. If they can exchange academic knowledge with aliens, it will definitely make the earth's science and technology advance by leaps and bounds, and understand the world. The extent has also been greatly deepened.

The premise is that aliens do not destroy the earth.

Knight also continued to introduce: "This fleet has changed from six ships to five ships. We can't judge the whereabouts of one of them. However, just five ships have already caused huge pressure on us. Except The two largest spaceships and the smallest alien spacecraft are also larger than the Ford-class aircraft carrier we just built and launched. Since the alien spacecraft does not move within our visual range, we can understand the movement (excluding super-light speed) Navigation), so we cannot judge its flexibility for the time being. We cannot rule out the possibility that, except for super-light navigation, the other party's performance is not outstanding in short-distance movements."

Bellevin was a little angry and said: "That's enough, I don't want to listen to your so-called optimistic guesses. The previous optimistic guesses caused us to lose two of the United States' best fighter planes in San Francisco, causing hundreds of casualties. We are going to The other party regards it as the most difficult crisis that mankind has ever faced."

Bellevin is usually informal and looks vigorous and free-spirited, but in fact he is still a bit indecisive. He asked: "Are you still unable to get in touch with them? As long as we can communicate, things will be easier to handle."

Knight shook his head: "The other party didn't respond to all the communication signals we sent. I don't know if they didn't receive it or they couldn't understand it."

NASA expressed its desire for peace in the communication, San Francisco got its ass kicked, and the Americans were less afraid to act rashly. But when five huge alien warships floated in the outer space of the earth, Americans' nervousness rose again.

Secretary of State Robinson said: "The UK, France and other EU countries have indicated that they hope to maintain full cooperation with us in this incident."

Translated into human language, this meaning actually means following the lead of the American Big Brother. Although these countries are all developed countries, they do not have the strength and influence to lead the overall situation and can only follow the United States.

Bellevine also has a headache. He will leave office in more than two months. If these unlucky aliens can come later, he will not have to have a headache. It will be the turn of the Republican tycoon who is full of nonsense and stupid. Worry. But I'm glad it's me. If it were that guy who talks about running a train, maybe humanity would really be doomed.

Defense Secretary Eddington said: "The alien fleet is eyeing the enemy, and judging from its configuration, it is very likely that the other party is a war fleet purely engaged in military purposes. Then the other party will definitely not be friendly when it comes to the earth. If aliens are allowed to If we launch an attack on the Earth first, we will suffer greater losses than the San Francisco incident, and human civilization will be destroyed. I suggest that we launch an intensive nuclear strike against the alien fleet first. We have a sufficient number of nuclear bombs to attack this planet in outer space. A group of aliens, even if their technology is more advanced than ours, facing such a large-scale nuclear bomb will definitely be able to severely damage them. The United States has mobilized all aspects of power and technology to deal with this situation."

Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Morse also said: "The San Francisco incident is undoubtedly a test of the aliens' military power on our planet. We failed, and then the aliens who feel reassured may intensify their aggression against us. . Therefore, even if we do not have the ability to completely defeat the enemy, we must show the courage to die with the opponent and hurt both sides. When aliens know that invading us is not worth the gain, not only will they not get a complete earth, but they will also suffer heavy losses. , then they will have to retreat or even engage in peace talks with us."

Bellevin stared at the two military representatives and said, "You are gambling! You are gambling with the fate of the earth and the lives of billions of people."

Addington sighed: "This is our last bargaining chip. If we gamble, we may still have a chance of survival. If we don't gamble, we don't know what consequences we will face in the future, whether it is slavery or destruction."

The Belleventians were fighting, and it was difficult to make a decision. He asked: "Should we discuss it with our partners in the European Union, the Russians and the Chinese."

Morse said: "What's the use of discussing it? Except they will create more trouble for us and make us miss the opportunity, they can't do anything. These people don't have the strength to fight back against aliens, and they can't even fight back." Avoid stumbling upon us in this process. This is a major decision related to the future of mankind, and it should be made by the United States, which leads the world."

At this moment, Beilevin felt the glory and burden of being the "ruler of the world". The senior officials present did not want to remain passive, because no one could predict what the aliens' next step would be, and what it might do to the earth and the world. What harm has the United States done. Therefore, strike first to gain advantage and strike later to suffer disaster. Use all the trump cards the United States has to frighten its opponents and gain opportunities for peace and negotiation.

It’s no different from what Iridium thinks. The Americans are also preparing to fight a war of hearts and minds. The tilt of the balance of victory is not determined solely by force and technology, but only subjective expectations.
