Chapter 1388: Chapter 450: The Dust Covering History (Part 2)

"Instead of causing trouble here, why don’t you find a way to intensify the investigation of internal issues? I don’t want to hear about someone using a nuclear bomb to light up New America’s future like fireworks."

"Europe will definitely react to this. You should hurry and convene a meeting to prepare for the impact. I’ll handle Lin Miao’s situation."

Miles wasn’t entirely reassured about Lin Miao, but at least the other’s life was in her hands, and hackers could decipher some of his thoughts through radio signals.

If there were any rebellious intentions, she would know it.

Based on Song Zhaomei’s reactions, Lin Miao recruited retired veterans out of concern for his personal safety, mistrust of military technology and the federal government. He hoped to assemble veterans for some security and also maintain law and order in construction zones, handling gang issues, which is perfectly understandable.

It’s just that Miles was somewhat dissatisfied with Lin Miao monopolizing the veterans’ loyalty. Does it mean the federal government is so stingy that he needed to spend his own money?

To the unaware, it might seem like he’s trying to keep his own private army.

Looks like he needs a firm reminder of whom he is actually working for.

In terms of results alone, Miles was still relatively satisfied.

This is different from gathering congressmen to make them pay for a construction project. Doing that would mean the government begs him, but what Lin Miao did was make him beg the government, with the federal government holding the dominant position.

Corporations are willing to invest in the renewable energy recycling industry chain. Though struggles over ownership will inevitably follow, the beginning is always the hardest part. Once it’s started, and a breakthrough is made within the state government’s jurisdiction, the remaining issues can be tackled gradually.

To make a statement, Miles said to the secretary outside the door in front of Lucas,

"Bring Lin Miao to me. This is simply outrageous!"

"I’m already here."

Thump, thump, thump!

Already prepared for this, Lin Miao didn’t even need the secretary to inform him. As soon as the words were said, he had already arrived at the White House to offer an apology.

The speed was so surprising that even Miles was a bit taken aback.

What does it mean to be sensible?

This is what it means to be sensible!

And when Lin Miao heard Lucas’s accusations against him, his brows furrowed, and he angrily shouted,

"You’re talking nonsense, Lucas. I’ve put up with your Military Science for a long time!"

Lin Miao’s angry tone began to carry a hint of grievance,

"I can endure all hardships for the New American Federation, but I just don’t understand. Why is it that when doing the great tasks of the state, the more one does, the more injustices they suffer?"

"Why do you have to hold on to me over a few pieces of writing?"

"And was the war on drugs fought for me? Wasn’t it for New America? What benefit does this war bring to my company?"

"But your military technology in Cuba has been dragging and unwilling to send reinforcements to help me. Many of my good brothers have died! Do you know?"

He spoke with a voice choked with tears, sincere and heartfelt, with every word filled with the painful grievance of being wronged despite his unwavering loyalty to the great America.

It left Lucas somewhat at a loss as to how to respond, as everything the other said was true.

"That’s still no excuse for recruiting private soldiers."

"Your security and city safety are contracted to military technology. At no point is it your concern to worry about the New American Federation’s military affairs?"

"Not my concern?"

Lin Miao sneered,

"I was shot at as soon as I arrived in Washington. Is that what you call nothing to worry about? Military technology has probably been infiltrated by Europeans like a sieve, hasn’t it?"

"If your people truly have skills, then New America’s internal traffic security must be stable, right? The logistics goods loss rate must be low, right?"

"And as for private soldiers, stop speaking nonsense. Those are loyal patriots of the New American Federation. They have only one allegiance, and that is to Miles, President Mai!"

Currently, New America doesn’t have much partisan struggle. The House of Representatives is basically dominated by military technology, with others fragmented and unable to rally against military technology, having to rely on the president.

This is why Elizabeth, Donald, and Miles can sit in their positions for decades without stepping down.

As long as military technology can be pressed, Miles generally wouldn’t say much, just go all out and confront them.

"You..."

Lucas wanted to retort about why they should care about security when they never managed it.

For military technology, chaos is beneficial. Chaos prompts people to purchase military security contracts, bringing them profits.

But that couldn’t be said here.

"Let me tell you, the New American Federation...."

"The New American Federation’s name isn’t for you to utter!"

Lin Miao loudly cut off Lucas’s remaining words.

"Eighty million population, sixty million unemployed, now the responsibilities of 38 states and millions are on my shoulders!"

"Alright, let’s not argue anymore."

Seeing Lucas’s spirit suppressed, Miles’s displeasure towards Lin Miao also dissipated.

The more Lin Miao and military technology’s stance is antagonistic, the more enemies there are, the better. Ideally, the whole world will go against Horizon, and Lin Miao will find no one else but Miles to rely on for protection.

By that time, no matter how many secrets he still hides, they’ll belong solely to me.

Miles said,

"About recruiting retired soldiers, I will have someone activate the veteran assistance fund. I will personally donate the first 50,000 US Dollars, and then let companies from each state donate together to pay for their wages and medical insurance."

Stupid, as if anyone else would pay besides me.
