Glory of the Sun God (Marvel Sun God)

Chapter 1763: Undecided but painful to make up your mind

Hesitant, this is a difficult question for people to figure out. .biqugev After all, tens of thousands of lives are at stake. If it were possible, who would have any hesitation in such a matter?It's better to use all your strength to fight for that glimmer of hope.

But this was only said officially, and was meant for ordinary people.For those who truly hold the power of the country, they must consider the issues of gain and loss before making such a decision.

Gains and losses, this is an obvious question.

In this matter, what he can get is the lives of these tens of thousands of soldiers and a stable situation after they return home safely.At a time when the United States was experiencing turmoil due to the war, their return was like inserting a calming needle that could calm all the turmoil.

This is what Stark and the others need, and this is why they have been sparing no effort to rescue them.

But there is a premise for this, that is, everything they do is hidden in the dark and not known to anyone, as if these tens of thousands of people have never disappeared.

However, when the location is changed to the Middle East, whether all this can be done in a secretive state has become a question that needs to be discussed.

After all, it is under other people's noses, and it is such a sensitive place.It is almost impossible to remain unnoticed.

And if their actions are exposed, then the impact will be an issue they have to consider.

It doesn't matter if Israel and the small countries in the Middle East know about it. After all, even if the United States is in decline, it is still a skinny camel bigger than a horse. No matter what, it is not the turn of these small countries to meddle in their own affairs.However, the world situation is deeply intertwined. As long as these small countries know about it, it will not be too far away for the big countries to know about it.

The United States mobilized its troops and even invested precious military power to excavate two ancient cities in this chaotic place in the Middle East. Even a fool can realize that something is wrong with this kind of thing.And as long as those big countries devote a little energy and carefully investigate this aspect, they will not be far away from finding out the final truth.

The Americans secretly deployed their troops to attack Hell, but they had no news about such a major matter.This kind of thing can only show one possibility, that is, the Americans have something secret in their hearts, and they intend to use this war to achieve some ulterior purpose.

Once you have this kind of wariness, it will be difficult to let it go.And if things really develop to this point, then the United States will really lose its wife and troops.

Today's world situation is complex, and a large part of the United States' economy and international exchanges relies on the help of several other countries.Especially at the economic level, Stark has been bound to the great powers in the East from the beginning when he attacked domestic capital forces.

The Stark government was able to lead the United States through such serious pain, and the help of the Eastern powers in this regard was an indispensable key factor.Even today, their economies are still inseparable from each other.And if it is said that this incident caused bad blood between the two countries, then such a result is definitely a situation that the Stark government does not want to see.

The ability to survive the previous major economic earthquake relied on careful planning and a certain degree of luck.And if such an earthquake happens again, no matter how thorough Stark's response is, there is no guarantee that his luck will be as good as the last time.

It is better to avoid such things as much as possible.And how can we avoid this kind of thing?The best way is to keep them in the dark.

It's difficult to do this.After all, the other party has many eyes and ears, and it is impossible to turn a blind eye to such an obvious action of yours.But no matter how difficult it was, Stark still wanted to struggle.So at that moment, he said this to Strange.

"Doctor, if I give you the power to mobilize the army, how many people and how long do you think you will need to pull back these two doors!"

What the hell?Upon hearing this, Strange's first reaction was to curse in his heart.

He is a mage, and mage is a typical example of living in isolation.And even if he had experience as the chief surgeon in an operating room before this, he only had to manage about a dozen people at that time.

Commanding an army is something only soldiers do.And excavating ruins is the specialty of archaeologists and tomb robbers.Neither of these two disciplines had much to do with him, and now, Stark actually asked him how many troops he would need to excavate a ruins. This was no different from asking Yu Blind.

Are you trying to make things difficult for me, Fat Tiger?Strange's face certainly didn't look good when he felt he was being challenged, so he responded with a straight face.

"Your Excellency, I am a mage, and at most I am a doctor. If you ask me to subjugate demons or cure diseases and save people, I can do it. But if you ask me to command the army and excavate ruins, this is It’s not too overwhelming. There is no such thing in the major I learned when I was in school. So, you’d better find someone who knows this field.”

After hearing Strange's reply, Stark realized what was wrong with his question.And this also made him feel that he had lost some control in his heart.

This is an obvious mistake, and I have never made such a stupid mistake in the past.Now I have actually done such a stupid thing.Then I can only say that I am a little unable to control myself.

Gains and losses, this is really a difficult issue for him to measure.After pinching his eyebrows and weighing his own opinions, he turned his head and asked General Ross the same question.

"General, how many people do you think you would need to do something like this?"

General Ross is a veteran. He has done a lot of things like lurking in secret and setting up strongholds behind enemy lines before he became a general.So Stark's question didn't bother him. He just thought about it and gave a standard answer.

"Give me 500 people, equipped with large machinery, it should be about the same. Of course, I will also need the cooperation of some professional archaeologists and agents. I am not sure about the time. If everything goes well, it will probably take three weeks to a month. Bar."

He gave this answer under the premise that everything went well, but even so, his answer still did not satisfy Stark.

Unlike General Ross who turned a deaf ear to Strange's warning, in his heart, Strange's warning still held great weight.

He is the president, the one who coordinates the overall situation.In this position, no matter what kind of risk it is, he must be prepared to deal with it.And just like what he said to Strange before, the existence of these tens of thousands of soldiers is the means he can think of to deal with this risk.

The threat from hell, no matter how great it is, is only related to the invasion from hell.As long as there are troops there to deal with it, things will not completely get out of control.And within the army, there is obviously no existence that can compare with these armies that have been on an expedition to hell.It can be said that as long as they can be transferred back safely, the so-called crisis is not a crisis in his eyes.

After experiencing the initial confrontation with Hell, Stark already had a general understanding of the level of Hell.In his heart, hell obviously no longer has the miraculous status in mythology. They can be defeated, and since they can be defeated, it is unnecessary to overestimate them.

Neither take it seriously nor despise it.This was his basic attitude towards this threat from hell.Compared with this possible threat, he is more concerned about the overall situation of the country.

Maintaining stability is a top priority.No matter what situation he faces, he does not want to see a situation that may cause turmoil in the country.So at that moment, he said this to General Ross.

"In terms of time, I hope to control it in a shorter time. As for the manpower, it's up to you. I only have one request, and that is that no one can discover our movements under any circumstances. Can you do this?"

This request was so high that after hearing these words, General Ross immediately hung up his cigar and smoked vigorously.

Under normal circumstances, he would not do this. After all, there are women among the senior officials present.Even if it was out of gentlemanly demeanor, he would not lose etiquette in this regard.But now, he can't think about it so much.It was really difficult for him to make up his mind without using tobacco to stimulate his brain.And he shook his head and said this after he took a few puffs of a cigar.

"Time is very tight, I'm not sure. This is not a problem that can be solved by having more or less manpower. If there are more manpower, it will be easier for the news to leak. But if there are less manpower, it will be difficult to control the time. To be honest, I don't have much confidence, Mr. President."

When he was in this position, there was no need to beat his chest and hold on to the end in order to move up.If it works, it works. If it doesn’t, it doesn’t work.We are all grasshoppers on the same rope, and it is only right to have one opinion.

And since General Ross was honest, others could no longer hide it.So immediately, Nick Fury expressed his worries.

"Your Excellency, please don't forget one thing. The door we are looking for is probably the way for the devils to enter the world. In other words, it is in the hands of those devils. Such a vital thing , it must be heavily guarded, and if we want to snatch it, a bloody battle will definitely be necessary!"

"Fighting is not terrible. I believe that we can win this war with our strength. However, I think it is better for you to carefully consider the possible consequences of this battle."

Nick Fury's words have a hidden meaning.And the implication of what he said was clearly understood by Stark, that is, once they start a war with the devils because of this, their actions are very likely to be exposed in front of everyone.Is it really worth exposing what they have always wanted to hide in front of everyone just for the sake of a possibility?

This is a question that Nick Fury has been considering since Strange said this method, and now he has this question in front of Stark.Faced with this question of his, even Stark would find it difficult to give an absolute answer.

It goes without saying that the importance of rescuing people is very important to him and to this country.But in order to save people, they would not hesitate to expose the country's secret operations, and even push the credibility of the entire country into the abyss. Is this really worth it?

Most people might say it's worth it because it's life.But in the eyes of those in power in the country, this account cannot be settled like this.

For those who hold the power of the country, life in many cases cannot be regarded as life, but should be regarded as a strategic resource.

Just like the wars waged by those countries in past history.As long as there is a war, no one will die.And since we know people are going to die, why do we still start such a war?The reason is very simple, that is, the country's interests require that they must launch a war, even if it is at the cost of death.

And what is the national interest.Talk about territory, resources, and population in real terms.On a more illusory level, it refers to various aspects such as national credibility, economy, and deterrence.

Using the lives of soldiers to protect one's own national interests is something that everyone in charge of national power should learn.This is the meaning of the existence of the army, and if the interests of the country are ignored because of the lives of soldiers, then for a qualified person in power of the country, this is obviously putting the cart before the horse.

Stark had already realized the problem at this time, and when he realized this problem, the peace in his heart began to become unbalanced.

At first, he was still hesitating, wondering whether he should keep the country's secrets and ensure that their actions were not known, or do everything possible to bring those soldiers back from hell.

He wanted to find a way to get the best of both worlds.But now it seems that having the best of both worlds is simply impossible.He could only choose one of the two, and this was the key to his hesitation, because at that time he still couldn't tell which was more important.

But now, the priorities have become clear.Risking the country's credibility just because we don't know whether the trip will be possible is obviously an insane move.Although the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers are important, they are not important to such an extent.

He figured this out, so he nodded immediately and spoke to the people present with a heavy tone.

"I understand what you mean, Director Fury. In that case, let's leave it as it is. Do you have any opinions?"

"No, sir."

As spokespersons, Nick and Fury naturally cannot have any opinions.Therefore, Stark's eyes are more focused on General Ross, the representative of the military.To this, General Ross responded like this.

"Your Excellency, the duty of a soldier is to sacrifice for the interests of the country. If there is no better choice, I am willing to accept this arrangement!"
