Chapter 446 What is the real reason?
Howard bowed quickly and said, "Your Majesty is wise!"
"We should have gotten rid of the foot basins long ago. They take up too many of our resources."
"We gave a lot to them, and yet, we didn't get a word of thanks from those guys."
The Eagle King asked, "Has Lewis also wanted to evacuate from the foot basin a long time ago?"
Howard nodded: "Yes, the military has wanted to withdraw a long time ago."
"Their losses in recent times have been really tragic."
"According to incomplete statistics, the base lost more than 1700 people in three months, two ammunition depots were destroyed, 32 fighter planes were destroyed, and five ships were destroyed."
"Our people basically don't dare to leave the base now, because once they leave, their safety will not be guaranteed at all."
"Even in the base, we are attacked from time to time."
The Eagle King frowned and shook his head and said, "It's really pitiful and hateful."
"How could the powerful Eagle Army fall to this point?"
"They can't even fight a peace war. How can they talk about super giant hegemony?"
Howard also quickly echoed: "Yes, Your Majesty, the Eagle Army is sinking too quickly."
"Let's put it this way. Their training is lax, their discipline is broken, and they have no fighting power at all!"
"Lewis was terrible at his position."
The Eagle King waved his hand and said, “Lewis can’t do anything!”
"The Eagle Army has a complex network of interests and has formed a huge interest group."
“This interest group is very powerful.”
"Even if we can appoint a chief officer, even if we have nominal power to appoint and dismiss personnel, we still cannot touch their interests!"
"At first, I tried to send an inspection team to Jiaoben to check their accounts. As a result, the people I sent encountered an accident as soon as they arrived in the nearby airspace. The plane plunged directly into the sea and everyone died."
"In fact, I know that they just shot the plane down with a missile!"
Howard gasped, "Ah?! No way? Are they so cruel?"
This was the first Howard had heard of this.
He really couldn't believe that the Eagle Army stationed in the basin could actually do such a thing.
Eagle King sighed and said, "After this incident, I never dared to review the affairs of Wujiao Headquarters again."
"I'm worried that if they get desperate, they might kill me too."
Howard said, "Your Majesty, do you think it was Snyder who gave the order to shoot down the audit team's plane?"
The Eagle King shook his head and said, "Actually, it doesn't matter whether it's him or not."
“The Eagle Army has now formed several interest groups.”
“They are so powerful that we simply cannot break their collusion of interests.”
“They incur huge expenses every year.”
"But most of the money was embezzled and divided among the leaders."
"What's most annoying is that they are so greedy, but such wastes!"
When they really started to work, they couldn't get anything done.
"It would be better to withdraw these things! At least, we don't have to fill a bottomless pit."
……
The content of the private conversation between the Eagle King and Howard should not be able to be leaked.
However, the eagle now is actually a wall with holes on all sides.
There is no secret about it at all.
It has only been a few hours since Howard and the Eagles King finished their conversation, and related news is already flying all over the Internet.
"The eagle has decided to withdraw from the foot basin! This withdrawal will be a major sign, marking the beginning of the real global contraction of the eagle."
“This is expected to be implemented in a week at most.”
Such a piece of news spread quickly on Weibo.
Moreover, it soon spread all over the world!
Weibo now has a universal translation system online.
Any blog post can be translated into the readers' target language by just clicking on translate.
This feature is amazing.
This indicates that the barriers to information dissemination have been completely broken down.
As long as a blogger's content is good enough, it is possible for him to be promoted to countries around the world.
That’s billions of users.
As long as one piece of news goes viral around the world, the number of readers could reach billions.
The traffic fees this brings to the blogger will be very considerable, and can bring in up to millions of dollars in revenue.
This is also the main reason why many people secretly open private Weibo accounts and then suddenly post shocking news.
Because the benefits are indeed too great.
Eagle King soon discovered that this news had become a hot topic on Weibo.
He was a little angry and a little helpless.
What the hell, what I just said to Howard in the office was posted online in the blink of an eye.
Is there a monitoring device installed in my office?
It's entirely possible.
It can't be that Howard himself leaked the news, right?
The Eagle King was a little angry, so he asked people from Department C to come and check the situation in the office.
Department C sent technical personnel to conduct a comprehensive search of Eagle King's office, and indeed found monitoring equipment in a hidden place.
This made the Eagle King very angry.
Because this indicates that there is a traitor inside the Eagle Palace.
Moreover, there are actually not many people who can enter the Eagle King’s office.
Who on earth dared to install eavesdropping equipment in Eagle King's office?
Eagle King asked Department F to investigate.
However, the result of the investigation was that Department F actually found several more monitoring devices in Eagle King's office.
Moreover, these devices are very small and disguised even more cleverly. If you are not a professional and the equipment is not sophisticated enough, you will not be able to find them at all.
Eagle King was furious: Damn it! Department C just checked, wow, they found so many monitoring devices now?
Does this mean that these devices were installed by people from Department C?
In fact, it is normal for Department C to monitor Eagle King.
After all, they listen to anything that can be listened to.
Department C is also a very powerful interest group.
This department is also very aggressive, and a lot of smuggling is done under the protection of Department C.
The Eagle King felt a little frightened.
Because he suddenly realized that he had no one he could trust at all.
Just like this time, Department F found out that there were many more pinhole surveillance devices in the office after Department C’s investigation.
Does he dare to go crazy and conduct a thorough investigation on Department C?
He doesn't dare at all!
If he dares to investigate the C Department, he should be prepared for a convertible warning.
The Eagle King was really helpless.
However, since the decision has been made to evacuate from the foot basin, this matter must be pushed forward.
Since the foot basin is useless, you should leave decisively.
In fact, if the Eagle Army insisted on continuing to stay in Jiaoben, then even if the Eagle King forced the evacuation, it might fail.
The interests of the military-industrial complex are also inviolable.
Why did the Eagle inexplicably get involved in the Peninsula War and the Vietnam-Monkey War after World War II? In fact, it is because the powerful complex needs to continue to fight to maintain its own interests and development.
For this complex, only constant wars can make them earn more.
Now, the foot basin has become a useless thing for this complex.
Because there is no oil or water to be squeezed out of the foot basin.
Moreover, the Eagle Army elites are also facing huge dangers in the foot basin.
Can't they bear it anymore?
At the Eagle King's order, Lewis, the chief of the Eagle Army, convened a press conference.
Lewis said in a press release: "We have worked very hard on the development of the foot basin!"
"If it weren't for us, the Foot Basin would have probably been completely destroyed long ago!"
"But they have no gratitude!"
"While we were protecting their safety, they were launching a sneak attack on us!"
"We can't be such a fool forever!"
"So, we finally decided that we were going to evacuate the foot basin!"
"Our evacuation will take place in three days."
This announcement was earth-shattering.
Because the news that the eagle was going to evacuate from the foot basin had already spread a few days ago.
At the daily press conference held by the Eagle Army a few days ago, reporters kept asking whether the evacuation of the foot basin was true.
The spokesperson at the time looked confused and said he didn't quite understand it.
But now, the Eagle Army has completely started to show its cards.
It was just a rumor, but it was confirmed so quickly?
This is a bit scary.
The people of Jiaoben have mixed feelings about this.
But Bangbang was a little panicked.
Bang Bang There were several reporters at the scene, one of whom was called Park Ji-seung.
Park Ji-Seung is an international news reporter for the Correa Daily.
He has also been the Eagle correspondent for some time.
Park Ji-seung has actually obtained a green card and he also has a house in Ying.
He had seen the news on Weibo a few days ago that the eagle was about to leave the basin.
He felt angry when he saw the news.
He thought: How could Dad possibly evacuate from the foot basin?
If they withdraw, wouldn't that mean they are handing over the entire Dongya to Long?
Therefore, Park Ji-seung does not believe this news.
He thinks this is fake news.
He also has his own Weibo account, so he would argue and quarrel with people in various ways.
He left a comment under every piece of news about the Giant Eagle's withdrawal, saying it was fake news. He also said that if this was true, he would eat shit.
As a result, a lot of people commented on his message saying that he was a rip-off, and quite a few people expressed their willingness to provide him with live food and drink services.
Park Ji-seung is going crazy.
When the Eagle Army held a press conference this time, he saw that Lewis was going to host the press conference personally, he decisively signed up and went there early.
He wanted to ask Lewis in person on the spot to see if the Eagle Army would categorically refute the rumor.
When Park Ji-seung arrived at the press conference, before the question-and-answer session even started, Lewis announced that he would withdraw from the foot basin.
This news was like a bolt from the blue.
Park Ji-seung felt very uncomfortable after hearing this.
Because, if Eagle gave up even the foot basin, then Bang Bang and the others would definitely not want it either.
After all, Bangbang is closer to the dragon, and it takes more effort to stay there. If the foot basin is lost, it will be difficult for the Eagle to stay in Bangbang. After all, their supplies have to be transported in through the foot basin strait.
Except for the foot basin, the entire southern sea area is now almost in the hands of the dragon. The safety of the Eagle base cannot be guaranteed at all, okay?
Park Ji-seung's mood suddenly sank to the bottom.
He thought, it seems that Eagle is really going to completely withdraw from Dongya...
Once they completely evacuate, Bangbang’s safety will be in danger!
Park Ji-seung was very anxious.
So, during the following question time, he raised his hand desperately.
Eventually, he was chosen to ask questions.
Park Ji-seung stood up, forced a smile, and said, "Mr. Lewis, I would like to ask, what exactly was the reason for you to finally decide to evacuate the foot basin?"
"If you withdraw from the foot basin, wouldn't that be equivalent to handing over the entire wealthy and important Dongya region to your opponents?"
"Without Dongya's support, your hegemony will probably be shaky."
“Have you ever considered the relevant issues?”
Lewis said: "We have always been taking on extra responsibility to maintain global security order!"
"However, we found that the vast majority of people in the world do not understand us. We have paid a lot, but we have also received the harshest criticism!"
"We have suffered a great loss and we are very sad."
“So, I think we should make a change!”
"We will leave the foot basin and hope that the foot basin can maintain its own safety!"
Park Ji-seung quickly asked, "Mr. Lewis, I want to know one more thing, which is: Will you keep the base in Bangbang?"
Lewis did not hesitate, saying, “We will discuss this issue in due course.”
"If the Bangbang people like us and welcome us to stay, perhaps we will choose to stay!"
"Of course, this also depends on how the situation develops."
"Everyone, I guess you have all seen the news. The reason why we decided to evacuate the Foot Basin this time is mainly because of the fierce opposition activities in the Foot Basin."
"Those opposition forces were horrible and committed many horrific atrocities."
"We did not suppress them out of kindness."
"But if they don't want us to stay, then of course we have to leave."
Lewis took the opportunity to complain about the foot basin people.
Park Ji-seung breathed a sigh of relief.
Because, it can be heard that the giant eagle actually does not want to leave the basin.
The reason why they chose to evacuate was mainly because the resistance of the foot basin was too serious.
"Mr. Lewis, I can't understand why the Foot Basin people would make a fuss! I think they are all ungrateful guys!"
"If it weren't for the Giant Eagle, they wouldn't be where they are today!"
"But please rest assured that we at Bang Bang will never be ungrateful. We will treat you like our family."
Park Ji-seung spoke to Lewis in a tone that was so flattering that it was sickening.
Lewis nodded and said, “Thank you for your support and understanding.”
"I firmly believe that our friendship with you guys will last forever."
These words made Park Ji-seung feel warm inside. He thought that his father was so humble and was so good to him.
The second reporter Lewis called on to ask questions was CNN reporter Colt.
Colt's question was not so peaceful.
He said loudly: "Mr. Lewis, I sincerely want to ask you: What is the reason for the Foot Basin People's rebellion?" (End of this chapter)
