"Who is it this time?", the officer's voice sounded in the receiver.
The admiral glanced at the president and others in the distance, with a reserved smile on his face.
"It's me."
"Sir!", the officer's voice became very excited, but also a little confused, "Is it appropriate for you to call at this time?"
He did not call out "Your Majesty the General", nor did he call out the name of the admiral, or other titles, such as commander, but only used a very vague honorific.
His people are monitoring this call, and he also believes that the director general outside and more security agencies are also monitoring this call.
Would it be dangerous to make a phone call at this time, and would it expose myself?
The admiral breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It doesn't matter. We have resolved our differences. When it gets dark, you can put down your arms and leave the Congress. People in the federal government will accept everything inside."
"I can ensure that you leave safely. The mission is over."
After he said these words, there was no sound of surprise from the receiver, nor was there any direct feedback, only the sound of gradually heavier breathing.
About seven or eight seconds later, the officer's voice sounded, "Sorry, sir, I can't respond to your order."
The admiral's blood pressure began to rise sharply, and he suddenly realized that something seemed to be getting out of control.
"If you have any needs, you can tell me and I will let the federal government compromise."
The officer did not answer directly, but instead asked, "We were abandoned, right?"
"Because they agreed to your request."
The admiral said nothing, and his expression gradually became serious.
"Why do you think that?"
The officer's tone became a little excited, "They still haven't put the money into those accounts as we asked, and their arrogant attitude is dismissive of us!"
"We are not just tools, sir, we also have our own ideas and demands. Part of the reason for this operation is to repay the kindness you have shown us."
"But the other part is not for you or ourselves, it's what they owe us."
The admiral was a little annoyed. The situation was on the verge of getting out of control. He changed his hand to hold the receiver and turned away from the eyes of the government officials. "What do you want?"
"First, all the money must be paid into these accounts as we said. This is what they owe them."
"Second, we must immediately restore the reputation of some people who have no direct connection with the sex scandal case, but whose glory has been stripped away."
"Third, the president must stand up and apologize to the soldiers who died in the war and the disabled soldiers who did not receive help later, and promise to take care of their families."
"Fourth, the Minister of Defense must take the blame and resign..."
"No...."
"And the fifth one?"
"This is impossible!"
The admiral knew very well that only the first and third of these conditions were possible, but only possible, and the second and fourth were basically impossible to achieve.
As for the fifth item that has not yet been mentioned, you don’t have to guess to know that it is also not easy to implement.
The officer was interrupted and remained silent for a while after hearing these two sentences, "Then this is a matter between us and the federal government, sir!"
After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
The admiral looked at the phone in his hand at a loss, and he didn't even know how to turn around.
His hand slowly placed the receiver on the phone base. Connor saw him hanging up the phone and asked with a smile, "Is the problem solved?"
The admiral's expression looked very scary. He suppressed the urge to destroy his heart, tightened his face, and shook his head, "I'm sorry, things are out of control."
The smiles on Connor's and others' faces quickly cooled down.
"What's the meaning?"
After a moment of silence, the admiral spoke out the officer's request, "There are other conditions, but he hasn't finished them yet. If we can meet these four, he will tell us the next conditions."
Connor and everyone else's expressions were full of annoyance, which was probably the champagne being popped at halftime.
In fact, no matter which problem it is, it is very difficult to solve, because it will give some people a bad start.
As long as they are dissatisfied with the outcome of certain matters and launch similar terrorist attacks, will the federal government still have any prestige in the future?
The first one is relatively simple, but who will bear the additional expenditure of 600 million?
I am afraid that no one is willing to take on such a large "debt" for no reason. After all, in accordance with the relevant regulations and procedures of the federal government and the military, pensions and compensations have been paid out according to standards.
Legally speaking, the federal government and federal military have fulfilled their obligations.
Of course, it may still be lacking from a humanitarian perspective, but the law is always cold and cannot be so humane.
Therefore, this amount of money does not belong to "normal expenditures". It is not the kind of compensation that was not given from the beginning and now all the compensation that should be given has been given. These are additional and unreasonable expenses.
Whoever signs will bear this responsibility.
The second one is even more difficult to deal with. Even if some officers are not deeply involved in sex scandal cases, at least one of them fails to report the information, or covers up or conceals the facts, which is enough to erase all their efforts and contributions.
It is one thing to serve the country and the people, but it is another thing to do something wrong. Just because these officers performed well in the war, we cannot allow them to break the law within the army.
To rehabilitate them now will only complicate the already solved problems again.
As for asking Connor to apologize and promise to take care of those people and their families, Connor was not willing.
His face was just printed on a fucking twenty-five cent coin, and now he was about to apologize on such a heavy topic, and what did these things have to do with him?
This is all Mr. Trueman's fault. He didn't do this well. Now, Connor, a person who actually has little to do with this matter, is asked to take responsibility. He is also very angry, and it is impossible to agree.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! As for the Minister of Defense to take the blame and resign...
Connor glanced at the Minister of Defense, who was startled. He looked at Connor, thinking that he wouldn't abandon me at this time, right?
He immediately said, "That's simply too much to ask for," and turned Connor's attention back to the admiral.
"So, what we talked about before was a waste of time?"
The admiral pursed his lips and said, "Give me some time..."
Connor agreed to his small request, "You have..." He raised his wrist and glanced at his watch, "...three hours. After three hours, we will act according to the original plan."
"When that time comes, you know what I mean!"
If everything goes according to the original plan, then the conditions for the Peleus family to leave will not be established.
To let them leave, there must be a certain degree of "giving up". For example, they will leave with some property, even if it is not much.
It is also possible that some people will be taken away, or some other things will happen.
But if they can't get those terrorists to surrender voluntarily, then they will still die.
Lynch didn't expect such a development to happen. He was ready to go back to sleep with Catherine as soon as the time came, but unexpectedly there was a small twist.
The infrared transmitter that had just been half dismantled was installed again, and the snipers began to return to their positions.
In the Congress, the officer had a strange expression after hanging up the phone. He gathered several of his highest-ranking subordinates together and talked about the phone call just now.
In an instant, these people became angry!
The original plan to hijack the Parliament was formulated by the Peleus family, and they all had their own reasons for participating, and not all of them were "victims."
A few people participated because everyone else was participating. As comrades, they were willing to fight for their brothers.
Now that they have been put on the fire, Peleus and his family want them to give up, which they cannot accept.
It is no exaggeration to say that their identity information has been completely exposed. As long as they put down their weapons and go out now, they will be burned to ashes and thrown into the sewer in no more than three days!
Those in the federal government, members of Congress, and other related interest groups will not allow them to live for more than a week!
It may be a miracle that they can be tried and sentenced alive!
The greater possibility is that he will be executed secretly. The federal government only needs to promote a new news to divert people's attention, and it will not cause any problems.
"...So now I need to seek your opinion on whether to surrender or continue."
"I can't guarantee whether there will be any accidents after we surrender. Maybe they will keep their word, maybe not. I don't know that, so you have to make your own decision."
"But no matter what you choose, I will still be here. Someone has to do some things."
"If it makes people wake up and make them realize that many things in this world are unfair, then I am willing to be the fist to break this unfairness, even if I am bruised and bruised."
The others started a heated discussion, and except for two people, everyone in this group was willing to follow him and continue.
Firstly, they were prepared before they came that they would not be able to get out. Secondly, even if they really put down their weapons, there is a high probability that they would not be able to survive, otherwise they would be able to do what they wanted to do.
Then another group of terrorists came to learn the latest situation, until everyone knew the information.
Seven people planned to leave, but the officer did not bother them and watched them leave.
The remaining people continue to prepare for the next work and plans.
As soon as the seven people left the Capitol, they were caught by strong lights, and they were subsequently arrested.
