"What to do? Don't just stand around, think of solutions."
Zhi Ye asked the military commander-in-chief.
"I'm sorry, President. At this stage, the only way I can think of is to shrink our military power, defend our homeland, deploy heavy troops on the borders and islands, and be on tight alert to prevent countries that we have suppressed from taking the opportunity to counterattack."
The military commander thought for a while and said.
"Is the matter so serious?" Zhiye asked.
"It's more serious than this." The military commander said seriously, "This is only at the military level. The problem is that military failure will lead to a comprehensive collapse of economy, technology, and culture. If there are not enough troops to suppress our
Friendly countries, they will not tolerate us sucking blood from them. When our military strength shrinks, they will take advantage of our influence and refuse to use the U.S. dollar as payment currency. Without monetary hegemony, we will not be able to use financial resources.
Harvest the world’s leeks.”
"And our debt ceiling has reached a new height. If we cannot repay our foreign debt, they will confiscate our overseas assets. The stocks of those big companies will collapse, countless wealth will be wiped out, and 90% of the people will become impoverished.
Countless people will be weighed down by debt, and the total economic collapse will intensify conflicts among the people. They will take to the streets again to overthrow us. Compared with these, those overseas countries have abolished our patents and suppressed our culture.
Products are all trivial matters."
The military commander-in-chief said.
"What if you print money? If you don't have enough money, just print it. If you print more, you can pay back what you don't have."
Zhi Ye asked.
"President," the military commander-in-chief said with a wry smile, "if you want to print money, you need to be backed by strength, either credibility or strength. Without the support of the military, no one will recognize the money we print. Moreover, because
A large amount of money printing, coupled with the return of a large amount of overseas currency, will cause the money on the market to suddenly increase several times. The total number of commodities will remain unchanged or become scarce, which will lead to an increase in commodity prices, and then a substantial currency surge.
Devaluation, the more we print, the faster it will depreciate. Soon, our banknotes will be able to catch up with those of Zimbabwe."
"What if we forcefully maintain military strength? What if we forcibly dispatch troops to overseas military bases? I don't believe they dare to rebel!"
Zhiye patted the table.
"But..."
"I don't want to listen, but execute it immediately!"
Zhi Ye roared angrily that in order to keep the building from falling down, she had to show strength, otherwise, the building would collapse and she would have failed in this world.
She didn't want to just hand over her eldest sister's head to Zhang Tuohai.
"I didn't expect you to have such a skill. I underestimated you. Now let's see what other tricks you have!"
Zhiye signed the presidential decree overnight.
On the one hand, the nuclear-powered money printing machine began to print a large amount of banknotes and distributed them to the military and various arms companies, allowing them to work overtime to produce various weapons.
On the other hand, the federal troops who received the departure fee began to board transport planes and head to the Lighthouse Kingdom's military bases around the world to suppress those "friendly countries".
The federal soldiers holding a lot of money were very happy about this.
In their eyes, stationing in friendly countries is a good job. Compared with the more strict management of the mainland, in those friendly countries they are the emperors who enjoy privileges. They are not paid for food and sleep. It is commonplace that they are not paid on the streets.
If someone is beaten to death, as long as you escape back to the garrison base and don't get caught by the local police, then you're fine and you can go back to your country on a military plane.
As long as you never come to this country again, you will always be able to get away with it.
For the soldiers who could only live with their lives in the homeland, this was a rare feeling of being able to enjoy privileges, and they were extremely happy.
Moreover, this time, Congress was extremely generous and paid the departure fee in full, and also paid back the arrears, which made them feel like they were in a dream.
Many soldiers started discussing on the plane how to eat, drink and have fun in the local area and become a master.
However, as soon as they got off the plane, they felt that something was not quite right.
What was underneath the plane was not a welcoming crowd holding bouquets of flowers, but groups of soldiers armed with live ammunition.
A large number of people were escorted to the station and were strictly prohibited from going out.
Many construction teams are working outside the station, and a high wall is rising from the ground. It looks like it will seal the entire station.
They don't look like a garrison, but more like prisoners with weapons.
"What's going on? This is different from what's advertised. Isn't it said that you can eat and drink for free here, and you won't be paid for it? Why is it like this? You are cheating. I want to go back!" A new arrival
The soldiers were shouting.
Many people began to inquire about the situation from colleagues who had been here for a long time.
Those colleagues said with a wry smile: "This place was indeed what you said before. However, since our military port was destroyed and two-thirds of the fleet sank to the bottom, their attitude has changed. Now they think they are stronger than us."
Strong, of course you disobey the supervision and are thinking of expelling us. Now everyone here wants to leave, but you are sent in. You can only be said to be sent as cannon fodder."
"What military port was destroyed and the fleet sank? Is it true or false? When did it happen? Don't lie to me!"
A big-headed soldier is in a hurry.
"No, you don't know about such a big thing?" The garrison in the camp was also shocked, "This is something that happened in the country. You are from the country, so you should know better than me?"
"I don't know." The new big-name soldiers shook their heads in unison, saying that they didn't know these things at all. The domestic news was all singing and dancing, the stock market economy was booming, and economic experts called for a bull market to be around the corner, encouraging retail investors to buy the bottom.
Enter the market and don’t miss this golden opportunity.
"Then you are controlled by the news. In fact, the situation in the country is far from as good as you imagined. Two-thirds of the fleet was destroyed, several high-tech companies were destroyed, a large number of key factories were destroyed, and a large amount of farmland was burned, because
The company and factory buildings were destroyed, resulting in a lot of lost equipment that could not be replenished. The previous battle to clear out the mercenaries consumed a large amount of weapons and ammunition. Now the ammunition reserves were urgently needed. There was no way to replenish production, and the farmland was destroyed.
As a result, food production will be significantly reduced, and food prices may rise, so it is better to save more money, otherwise, I may not even have money to buy bread when I go back."
An old garrison said.
Hearing the words of the old garrison, the new soldiers panicked. They had experienced a cold wave when their electricity bills soared hundreds of times. At that time, they relied on burning wood to survive. If there was a food crisis, they would have
I'm afraid it's a question of how many slices of bread I can buy with the little money I have.
