Chapter 919: The True Meaning
There was a large desk in a corner of the command room, and there were several people sitting. Mu Yang knew only two of them, one of which was Mike Hampton, the new commander of the US Army Africa Command.
The terrorist attack at Lemoniere Base was fired by Muyang last year, causing the US military to lose four warships and 500 soldiers to be killed and injured. In such a major accident, David Rodriguez, the former commander of the US African Command, was fired and Mike Hampton was transferred.
The other is Todd Helton, the director of CIA in Djibouti. Although Todd Helton's identity is not obvious in Djibouti, Mu Yang, as the Chinese ambassador, naturally has more knowledge about the situation in Djibouti than others.
Todd Helton's information has been in the national database for a long time. Mu Yang naturally saw photos and information about this American fang hidden in Djibouti. This time, it was the first time I saw a living person.
There were four or five people here, including soldiers and plainclothes, but obviously Mike Hampton and Todd Helton were mainly two people. These people were sitting at the rectangular desks and were talking about something, but due to the distance, the sound of the computer host and the sound of people walking around, the sound was a bit turbid.
Mu Yang carefully distinguished it. Except for some individual syllables, he couldn't hear what they were saying specifically.
"Luka, can you find a way to hear what they say?" Mu Yang asked.
"Detect a non-recyclable mechanical mosquito and flies." Luca said.
Mu Yang remembered that this kind of mechanical mosquito and flies was still the equipment he gave to Luka himself. It is one of the special agent equipment and is very useful, but it cannot be recycled. After use, it is basically discarded and self-destructed.
"Okay, let it go."
The mechanical flying chess that was the size of a fly flew over the heads of everyone and stopped on the side of a chandelier. The sound immediately became clear.
"Hulton, I said before, send more people to do so, but now, even the Chinese Embassy has not entered, and they have all been killed. Is this your business?"
"The country is very dissatisfied with this operation. We did not achieve the expected results and we also have to compensate the other party's personnel for the money they lost. You must know that this money was paid by the military." Mike Hampton said unhappily.
"General Hampton, the responsibility cannot be attributed to us. You must know that the plan was formulated by your military, and we are just cooperating. If you foresee that China would have such a strong defense, why don't you fire a missile from a ship and directly blow up the Chinese embassy?" Todd Helton was obviously speaking an angry words, and everyone knows it.
Isn't this nonsense when launching missiles?
"What should we do now? Give up is absolutely not possible." Hampton said angrily.
"How do I know that your military is the protagonist, we are just responsible for providing intelligence and assistance."
"We are just trying to find an excuse for this operation. Now, regardless of whether the losses are caused to the Chinese Embassy, our original purpose has been achieved, right?" said Superintendent Helton.
"Since that's the case, let's leave and act according to the original plan." Mike Hampton stood up and left angrily.
Todd Helton, the director of CIA in Djibouti, shrugged, stood up, and left the office with his subordinates.
With a slight "bang", the mechanical fly exploded into a pile of tiny debris.
"Luka, come back, be careful not to be exposed." Mu Yang sent a message to Luka and then closed the communication.
What is an "excusation", what is an excuse for Americans to do, what is their plan?
Mu Yang fell into thinking.
The United States has suffered repeated losses in Africa. In order to regain the initiative, it will definitely cause trouble, but Mu Yang cannot guess how he wants to act. However, their ultimate goal must be to target China and curb China's development in Africa.
An hour later, "Luca" appeared silently in Mu Yang's room, and Mu Yang took him into the space.
When Mu Yang woke up the next morning, when he turned on his computer, he saw overwhelming news reports about the terrorist attacks in Djibouti and the Chinese Embassy. Not only European media, but also American media were reporting on this matter.
In China, the Chinese embassy in Djibouti was also reported on morning news that the Chinese embassy in Djibouti was attacked by terrorists, and then said that the embassy had no casualties, and all the 30 terrorists attacking the Chinese embassy were shot dead on the spot.
This suddenly attracted a lot of interest.
"The Djibouti Embassy is mighty, and those who dare to offend my tiger will be killed."
"I looked at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs with admiration. I used to think that they could only talk and protest."
"Terrorists are all paper tigers, Americans are equipped with Marines, China has only diplomats, Americans just drive away the terrorists, Chinese diplomats have killed all the terrorists, it is mighty."
Subsequently, at a regular press conference held by the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the Blue Hall, spokesperson Mengying solemnly condemned the terrorist attacks.
Mu Yang looked at the reports on US news websites again and it was also condemning the terrorist attacks. Some people said that the attack was probably still done by IS. After all, they have now become the largest terrorist organization in the world after al-Qaeda.
Moreover, the last time the US military base was bombed in Djibouti, I came forward to admit that it was their actions. The United States then carried out retaliatory military operations on IS, so people naturally thought of IS.
Mu Yang looked at the reports seriously. The media first condemned the atrocities of terrorists, and then worried about the security issues of US interests in Africa. Finally, some people shouted that Africa is still in chaos. The United States needs to maintain the security situation in Africa, send more soldiers to Africa, and increase the military strength of the Djibouti military base.
After looking through more than a dozen mainstream media, I found that their tone was basically the same, as if they had agreed. The situation in Africa was extremely serious, and the United States must increase its troops in Africa, etc.
Some people even say that aircraft carrier formations need to be sent.
When I see these reports, I always feel that the limelight is wrong, as if the United States is intending to guide these media to report on this matter.
Don’t believe in the so-called freedom of news reporting in the United States. The government will not control news and public opinion. That would be a big mistake. In fact, the US government’s control over public opinion is extremely strict, but they regulate the media through legislation.
And if the media wants to report what they want, the US government will also use government power.
Mu Yang suddenly had a thought in his mind. Could this be the true intention of the Americans? (To be continued.)
