My days as a landlord in Gotham

(seven)

"The Homeland Strategic Defense Attack and Logistics Agency wants us to coordinate with the North American Aerospace Defense Command and give an aircraft a special identification code?"

Chairman of the United States Joint Chiefs of Staff, Admiral Michael Mullen looked at his secretary and asked doubtfully, "Are their heads caught by the door panel?

Without the authorization of Mr. Minister of Defense, who can issue such an order? "

The U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff is equivalent to China's General Staff, but they do not have actual military command power, only the right to make suggestions.

That's why Michael Mullen was incredulous when he saw the request from the Homeland Strategic Defense Attack and Logistics Support Agency.

If an order is to be issued to NORAD, it must be authorized by the President of the United States and issued by the Secretary of Defense of the United States.

The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, who is the highest military advisor to the President of the United States, of course knows that the Homeland Strategic Defense Attack and Logistic Support Agency is actually a unit under the name of the US government, but even if it is a friendly unit, such things that violate normal procedures are absolutely not allowed. made.

Otherwise, not only would he immediately lose his current position, he might even be sent to a military court.

Thinking of this, Mullen's tone also took on a stern tone, "You tell the Homeland Strategic Defense Offensive and Logistics Agency that if they have any military needs, please contact the Pentagon directly, and don't make small moves!"

Director Fury soon received the rejection message from the other party, and then pressed his forehead in his office with a headache.

If it was convenient to contact the Pentagon, Director Fury would have acted long ago.

He just doesn't want the U.S. government to know too much about the inside of S.H.I.E.L.D., so he doesn't want to contact the Pentagon.

Once the U.S. government knows that the allies of S.H.I.E.L.D. have the ability to navigate planets, it is estimated that the White House will force itself to hand over this technology.

Don't look at the fact that although the United States has slowed down the pace of space exploration, the US government has always given up the space program.

Although one of the purposes of the U.S. government’s launch of the space program was to bring down the Soviet economy, another purpose was to promote the improvement of U.S. defense capabilities through the implementation of the space program.

If the U.S. government possesses planetary spacecraft technology, it means that U.S. military power can break through the defense forces of any country and deliver a fatal blow to the enemy at a time and place where the enemy is completely defenseless.

Director Fury is well aware of the craziness of the hawks in the government and those in the military after knowing this technology, so Director Fury intends to minimize the number and level of insiders.

I didn't expect the Joint Chiefs of Staff to reject my request without even thinking about it. Director Fury doesn't know how to deal with it now.

After thinking about it, he still called the World Security Council first. Since he wanted to raise the level of the meeting, he should simply raise it to the highest level.

When the U.S. government wants aerospace technology in the future, it should communicate with the World Security Council. Anyway, several major countries have permanent director positions in the World Security Council. It depends on how they check and balance and divide the spoils.

Sure enough, when the World Security Council heard that an alien fleet of unknown origin was approaching the earth with malicious intentions, the directors became nervous.

Regardless of the fact that the countries behind these directors have the ability to destroy the earth, but until the end, who wants to destroy the earth without incident?

The result is when everyone threatens each other "I can destroy the earth"

At that time, when there really came an alien fleet that could really easily destroy the earth and prevent the earth people from spreading even a civilization, everyone panicked.

Fortunately, Director Fury said that the matter has not reached the point of no return, and besides you hooligans who have nothing to do to threaten each other and throw nuclear bombs, there are still several forces silently guarding the earth.

Now Director Fury said that he needs foreign aid. Foreign aid has the ability to detect deep space, and they also have the ability to travel between planets.

After hearing these two technologies, the directors who were still worried about their future asked whether these two technologies could be owned by them.

Even Russian director Lebekov slapped the table and said that if foreign aid is disobedient, they will be destroyed humanely!

Facing this group of pig teammates, Director Fury had no choice but to respond coldly. The strength of force possessed by foreign aid far exceeds the level of earth technology.

And people might not be afraid to face that alien fleet, so let's not create another enemy.

After Director Fury's coaxing and intimidating words, these directors had no choice but to put away their selfishness for the time being.

Then everyone quarreled for a while, and finally reached a consensus.

Order the U.S. government to order the North American Aerospace Defense Command to provide the identification friend or foe signature, allowing the foreign aid of S.H.I.E.L.D. to send deep space probes to designated orbits.

Although the U.S. government is somewhat dissatisfied with the World Security Council's finger-pointing, but this council is still organized by itself, and now it is really facing the end of the earth, so the U.S. government also smashed its teeth and swallowed blood.

Soon Director Fury got the IFF signature code sent by NORAD.

In fact, the identification code of friend or foe is an encrypted password, which is sent to our troops on the battlefield through a special frequency band, so that our troops who receive this password will naturally list the person or vehicle that sent the password as ours. Members, so that when launching a strike, we can try not to hurt our own personnel as much as possible.

Li Lei entered the characteristic code forwarded by Director Fury into the Poseidon. In order to meet the needs of the earth, Hamada Hiroshi made many improvements to the Poseidon with the assistance of the Red Queen.

"This time, Hong and I are responsible for the mission of launching 'Thousand Mile Eye [-]' and 'Thousand Mile Eye [-]'."

Li Lei said, "I am the pilot of the Poseidon, and Hiroshi Hamada is the mission officer.

Hiroshi Hamada's auxiliary engineering armor set is the only one of our armors suitable for outer space walking.

As for the three of you, you are responsible for staying on Earth, but you also have tasks. "

Li Lei didn't know how safe the Poseidon was, so he didn't plan to take everyone into space.

However, in order to appease the emotions of the three little ghosts, Li Lei also assigned tasks to them.

"Jason, you are the ground commander, and all operations are based on your judgment; Adam, you are in charge of liaison, and communicate with S.H.I.E.L.D. at any time.

As for Nuliang Rikusheng, you will be in charge of the logistics. "

After Li Lei assigned the tasks, he and Hamada Hiroshi walked into the Poseidon.

When Li Lei and Hamada Hiroshi were making the last inspection of the Poseidon, Jason and the others were also returning to the command center in the basement of the apartment.

In fact, the real commander is the red queen. After all, it is safer to leave it to manual labor for such a thing that requires very precise operations.

And Li Lei also reaffirmed the landlord's privileges to the apartment, to prevent anyone from harassing the group of brats when he and Hamada Hiroshi left.

Li Lei has now confirmed that the members of Hydra and the World Security Council have some understanding of their own strength. Presumably, they should obtain their own technological products from both open and covert directions.

For these people's delusions, Li Lei said that if he dared to stretch out his claws, he would chop them off.

"Poseidon, this is Gotham, now confirm the progress of your self-inspection."

While Li Lei was still checking the Poseidon system, Jason's voice came from the earphone.

"The self-inspection progress is currently 70%, if there is no accident, Poseidon will leave the base in half an hour.

When Poseidon enters the center of the Atlantic Ocean from the offshore base, we will choose an opportunity to launch. "

"no problem.

But please contact us for the specific launch time after confirmation, we also need to notify S.H.I.E.L.D. "

After talking with Jason and others, Li Lei and Hamada Hiroshi had already changed into their portable combat uniforms and put on their helmets.

Although this combat suit has no armor function, it can survive in various extreme environments, and outer space is no exception.

Both Li Lei and Hamada Hiroshi were waiting for the Poseidon's system self-inspection to complete, so they chatted one after another.

"Ray, what do you think of this alien fleet?

I think you should know something. "

Hamada Hiroshi said.

"Actually, I do know something vaguely, but I'm not sure."

Li Lei said, "Everything can only be determined after our deep space probe starts to operate.

But I hope my guess is wrong, otherwise it will definitely be a very bad thing for the earth. —By the way, when will our satellite be deployed?

And is there any update on the base from Bruce?

In the past few days, we haven't followed up with him in time. "

"You don't have to worry about satellites. We have achieved coverage of North America and will soon cover South America and the Pacific Rim."

Hamada Hiroshi said, "However, the project at Happy Port is more troublesome, and the current progress has not reached one-third.

Because Bruce has to recruit superheroes outside, they don't have the ability to keep a close eye on the scene. "

Li Lei nodded. He knew that the Justice League base was completed very quickly because of the intervention of Superman, Flash and Green Lantern. In addition, Cyborg also did a lot of technical support.

This is much better than relying on Bruce alone to do his best.

It's a pity that the Justice League is just an empty shelf now. Apart from Bruce, it seems that it only has its own power.

Fortunately, Li Lei has tracked down through the Internet that Tony has started experimenting with his armor. It must not be too long before Iron Man will appear.

Li Lei has decided to pull Iron Man into the organization of the Justice League and not let him go to the Avengers.

As for Captain America, Li Lei thinks he can fight for it if he can, and he doesn't want to face too much.

Firstly, Li Lei doesn't want to completely destroy the Avengers, and secondly, Li Lei is also worried that the Justice League will split because of the relationship between Captain America and the Winter Soldier.

"Okay, Poseidon has completed the self-inspection, please leave the base."

Li Lei said in the communicator.

"Permission to leave."

Jason quickly agreed to Li Lei's request.

With Jason's instructions, Poseidon also entered the Gotham River through an underground pipeline.

Gotham City is the mouth of the Gotham River. Since Li Lei had activated the IFF system, the Coast Guard offshore did not feel that there was anything wrong with the presence of the Poseidon.

In the North American Aerospace Defense Command, several US military executives are staring at the surveillance screen.

They want to see the Poseidon for the first time and get its relevant data.

Even if it is just appearance data, it will be of great help to the development of future US spacecraft.

In particular, Hydra has dispatched several submarines and remote sensing fleets in the Atlantic Ocean through their influence in the military. They have greater ambitions than the US military and hope to obtain more direct data.

"The Poseidon has entered the sea area where it is scheduled to take off."

Li Lei said, "Now inform S.H.I.E.L.D. of our takeoff time."

"clear."

Jason notified S.H.I.E.L.D. as soon as he got the data such as the take-off location and time of the Poseidon.
