Under the influence of Lynch, some of Mr. Truman's ideas have also changed greatly.

He had attached great importance to the establishment of diplomatic relations with nagariel. In addition to the things, resources and other things Lynch said, he probably hoped to surround a group of allies around the Baylor Federation.

Everyone is very confused about how to go in the future. They don't know whether to step on the road or sink into the mud. If the Federation has more allies, it will have more opportunities to share the pressure and more confidence to refuse.

But now, his idea has changed. He doesn't want to admit that an adult was persuaded by a young man, but the fact is that he was convinced.

Lynch's words magically cut into his nerve center along his most "fragile" place, which made him tremble and blood boil.

All soldiers are willing to write their own medals with brilliant war, defend the dignity of the country with iron blood and heroic force, and bleed and sacrifice for the prosperity of the country.

Lynch's words are very in line with the appetite of Mr. Truman, who was a soldier. After he is persuaded, he will convince the president. This time, he not only went by himself, but also invited others.

One was the head of operations of the National Security Council and the other was the Second Secretary of defense. The three appeared in the president's office together.

In these two days, we all know that the Preton Pirate Group - their next opponent may be a pawn supported by the Royal Navy of gavra.

As we all know, some things are not easy to do in the way of countries, such as attacking merchant ships, fishing boats and even cruise ships of some hostile countries.

If any country sends troops to do such a thing, it will certainly lead to a storm of public opinion.

Gavra is a monarchical country. The emperor cherishes his face very much, so supporting a person who does dirty work has become his best choice, which is also the favorite way of most politicians.

Once the naval battle to eliminate pirates begins, it is likely to push the Federation to an unknown place.

The conservative party, which has been silent for a long time in recent days, has also stood up and denounced some ideas of the Progressive Party in the media. It believes that blindly launching a military attack on the irrelevant nagary will bring terrible consequences to the positive image that the Federation has just established in the international community.

They did not tell the public that the Preton Pirate Group may be faked by the Royal Navy of gavra, which will bring panic and unrest to the whole federal society, which is not in their interests.

What they need is to stop this diplomatic activity that is worthless in their eyes, rather than let social unrest and people panic, so they just tell the people that doing so is not in line with the federal interest demands at this stage.

Of course, they also created some questions to attack the establishment of diplomatic relations with nagary and put forward some seemingly soul torture questions, such as "why should we help others develop rather than leave opportunities at home".

In the confused stage, there will always be all kinds of ideas, and the people will be firmly attracted by different ideas. Some people do stand on their side.

In recent days, some spontaneous demonstrations have interfered with the continuation of the establishment of diplomatic relations. Some people even marched outside the presidential palace. Their slogan is "take care of ourselves first", which is very in line with the style of the conservative party.

Using mostly similar slogans, they called on the federal government to keep at home some of the resources and wealth originally intended to aid nagary.

In short, some of the president's situation is getting better, but he is also facing some new problems. Just when he himself was hesitant, Mr. Truman found him with two lobbyists.

"Do you know what happened yesterday?" Truman asked the president a question after introducing the identities of the two entourages around him.

The president nodded, "yes, I already know. You told me about it last night!"

After the incident, Truman told the president some things that happened in the negotiation process and his tacit performance with Lynch, so that he could have a preparation, but the deeper content had not been said. He came to see the president only after he found two people he thought could help him convince the president.

Mr. Truman looked at the two people around him, then looked at the president, "we have signed a confidentiality agreement before we came. What we want to say next is that only the three of us know except you."

The president was a little surprised. His expression showed appropriate surprise. Senior federal officials are rarely required to sign confidentiality agreements. Only those contents that may have an unpredictable and great impact will be required to sign. His attitude suddenly became correct. The expression also became dignified.

"In fact, I didn't finish my report with you yesterday. Later, I talked with Lin Qi. He thought what we really need now is not who stands with us, but that we can defeat our opponents!"

The president's expression was always dignified. At this time, his eyebrows also tightened, "our opponent?"

This is a standard question sentence, and ends the whole sentence with a slightly empty tone to keep its original meaning.

"Our opponent!" Mr. Truman repeated, and the game became very certain. "We want to create an opponent and defeat it. We can get everything needed for the development of the Federation from the war, build the self-confidence of the federal people, and unite us closely as a whole. Let's defeat the next opponent!"

The president shook his head slightly. "That's what you're talking about. It's terrible!"

He didn't say why it was terrible, but everyone in the room knew that this was imperial hegemonism. In order to expand their own forces, they plundered and expanded everywhere, which was in sharp contrast to the spirit of a free and peaceful Federation.

It's not true that some people think these are not good enough. The leaders and ruling class of any country want their country to expand to every corner of the world.

Only when the scope of rule becomes larger, the power in their hands will become more sweet, but sometimes some things are not as simple as words, but also need corresponding strength.

Now imperial hegemonism... Is not very popular in the world. This world war has changed many things, including the form of some ruling classes.

Plunder does not necessarily mean that the territory of the other party should be included in the bag. It can also be carried out in some other ways, but this does not mean that hegemonism will disappear completely. It just changes its form and continues to exist in another way, which will not change in essence.

Mr Truman didn't show some kind of guilt he should show?

Maybe he should feel guilty for his ideas, but at this time, there is another luster on his face, a luster... Like being favored by something.

"Mr. President, the war between us and the Pirate Group stems from our demand for victory. We need a huge victory to cheer up the whole Federation. If we defeat the Preton Pirate Group, we can obtain a long-term and stable supply of raw materials."

"But now those people in nagariel and Preston seem to have some agreements. They intend to give up establishing diplomatic relations with us. Once they do that, we will face some huge problems."

"First of all, the conservative party may take advantage of the momentum. Recently, they have begun to criticize some of your new policies in the media. We can't quickly open up the situation in the international community, which has also brought some negative effects to you."

In fact, the president and his cabinet have done very well, but the problem is that the Bailey Federation is to share the cake. This alone will not make people like him. Naturally, it is impossible to bring much benefits and orders to the Bailey Federation.

On the contrary, with the limited opening of some free markets, some foreign goods have begun to be dumped to the Federation, which is the most serious in the three free trade zones in the south.

A large number of high-quality and low-cost foreign goods have completely defeated domestic goods. Many small businessmen pack and transport these goods to various places, squeeze the market share of similar goods, and give a heavy blow to some domestic enterprises that are still struggling to maintain.

These are all problems, but they are not obvious enough, but some swing people are on the conservative side.

In their words, there is no benefit now. On the contrary, more factories have closed down. If the more countries that have established diplomatic relations, the more factories have closed down, it would be better to continue to engage in "escapism".

"Secondly, the frustration caused by the failure to establish diplomatic relations will make the people feel a deep disappointment, which will make us more insecure, and there will be more and more social problems and contradictions, or even outbreaks."

"Third, a foolish and backward small country such as the United Kingdom of nagary can embarrass us or tease us in diplomatic relations. If we can't wash away the shame, our international image and status will only be lower and lower."

"People will not respect peace loving fools. They will only fear butchers with sickles in their hands."

"Gavra has today's status, not how much they love peace, not how many small countries they have helped develop industry and economy, but their warships all over the world!"

"Mr. President, this is also my intention today. Once this diplomatic activity fails to meet our expectations, I hope you can authorize us to launch this war!"

The president's eyebrows almost screwed together. He waved his hand. "Let me stroke it. Are you sure you just said the word 'War'?" his expression was very serious. "I thought we were just going to fight a group of pirates."
