In the early morning, it rained heavily.

The weather in the Meriken Washington D.C. today is very bad. It has rained for a day. It is already early in the morning and it is still falling, which makes the entire Special Administrative Region feel a sense of depression.

A group of young young men with sexy tattoos didn't hold umbrellas, and they were walking around the sidewalk in a transparent raincoat.

They held canned beer in their hands, drinking and shouting as they walked.

At this time, three black cars rushed past them.

"Swish swish swish swish--"

The water accumulation beside the road was not wasted at all, and it splashed on them continuously.

"Fake! You heard it, Fake!"

"Shet! Shit!"

The young man immediately cursed and threw out the beer can in his hand.

However, their actions were meaningless. The three cars had no intention of stopping. They turned a corner in front and disappeared into their sight.

"Who did you see the license plate just now? Let's check where they are. I'll find someone to get their car."

"That's right, who saw it, I have friends in the gang in this neighborhood and can do a vote together!"

A group of people shouted, only one person was thinking, because in his impression, this was not the first wave of similar convoys in the past, they were all in the same configuration.

For example, in the same model of black sedan, the front and rear cars flashed with police lights, but the sirens were not ringing. As for the license plate, he saw one clearly, which was not the common type at all.

This situation seems to be only possible for certain major actions, because the car must be carrying some big shots.

Thinking of this, he no longer wandered around the streets. No matter what news it was, he had to make some preparations in advance. No matter what guessed right or wrong, he had to prepare the time and time to run away.

As a secret leader of a gang, he doesn't want to have nothing.

The MP sitting in the car ahead didn't know that his car had an impact on a small gang leader. What he was thinking was a major issue related to the life and death of the country.

Originally, everyone would lose their temper when they were called in the early morning, but when they heard it was a special presidential order, they had to put on their clothes and get in the car quickly.

The ability to issue such a presidential decree is enough to show that the country is in a very dangerous situation.

As for the specific situation, he didn't know, nor did the staff who came to pick him up.

"It's troublesome."

This situation was happening throughout the SAR, with dozens of convoys starting from various places and heading towards Congress in the rain.

At the same time, all over the country, those members who could not arrive at the parliament within a short period of time were also called up. Although they could not arrive at the scene, they had to show up and see the entire meeting.

Fortunately, it is the Internet age, so you can participate in online meetings through confidential channels.

The black car that had been flying all the way finally arrived at Capitol Hill. Under the black night sky, the white building also turned into a black building. Only when the lights shine, can we know that it was white.

When we arrived here, the escorted convoy stopped directly, and only the vehicles carrying the members of the parliament entered. Even so, the steps at the entrance of the building were full of cars.

There is no way, they were all pulled out of the bed, and the time they arrived was almost the same.

The black sedan stopped, and the field staff in a black suit opened the door with a black umbrella, allowing the MPs who were also wearing black suits to get out of the car.

When a bunch of black suits walked into the Capitol, I always felt that they were not like good people, and the meeting they were going to hold was not serious.

"This damn weather, damn time, why are we here?"

Some congressmen came in and cursed.

"Do you know what's going on? Why did he sign a special presidential decree?"

Some members of the parliament asked.

"I don't know very well, but it seems to be for national security, and it's related to the opposite of the ocean."

Some MPs know something, but they don’t know too much.

"What, was it that the Russians started the war? No, I have to go home quickly to pack up my things and leave here!"

Well, well, even if you are a "person" in Meriken, this is really not a blind publicity.

"I heard that it seems to be related to Tianxia, ​​not to the Russians. They don't even have money now, what can they do?"

The individual MPs were a little depressed when they were on the road. At most, they called other MPs in the car to try to understand the situation. However, after a group of MPs gathered together and found their own small group, they became much more lively.

Even though they were still worried about national security last moment.

After entering the semicircular conference hall, many people have arrived, and many avatars have also lit up on the large screens in various directions, indicating that this meeting is urgent and important, and all members must be "present".

The MPs sat in their own positions and chatted with each other. This kind of situation is too rare. There are not so many "numbers present" in normal times. They only need to meet the minimum number of people to hold meetings.

As the number of people increased, the buzzing talk became louder and louder, until the last MP arrived and the gendarmerie outside locked the door.

"Bang bang bang~"

The Speaker knocked the wooden hammer hard.

"Quiet! This meeting was because the President signed an emergency special presidential decree, so it did not follow the normal process. Please speak directly by Mr. President."

The meeting started, and went straight to the topic. He didn't talk nonsense. He sat in his own position and turned on the microphone and said: "This meeting involves our national security. Tianxia's space fighter jets have already taken off and are always wandering over us. Therefore, the Space Force and the National Space Program cannot be the same as before. We must have new changes to deal with this new situation."

Understanding the king's words really scared the members of Congress, but it is not enough. They only know that there is danger, but they don't know how dangerous it is, so they need professionals to talk about it.

This is what the Merecon Department of Defense Advanced Research Projects Bureau does.

This time they came a lot of people. The person in charge of popular science was a senior researcher named Cromwell. He was a handsome man in his thirties who had a lot of wax on his hair and looked smooth.

He gave the congressmen present a popular science on the Navigator's "Dart X" single-stage orbit spacecraft, and then used the "X-37b" in the test of Meriken for an analogy. Compared with the two, the gap is not an ordinary big one.

The former is the aerospace vehicle that Meriken imagined, while the latter is the aerospace vehicle they achieved in reality. The gap is... the distance between dreams and reality.

"...You may not know what the wave-crossing body configuration and swept large delta wing of the 'dart x' means. Let's put it this way, the wave-crossing body is the common appearance of hypersonic missiles, while the large delta wing is the commonly used wing form on fighter jets."

After hearing what Cromwell said, the congressmen suddenly realized.

Didn’t you understand if you said this earlier? You have to say a lot of professional data before, and who knows what you are talking about?

When it comes to missiles and fighter jets, everyone knows that even weapons and weapons vehicles, the positioning of "Dart x" is no longer gone, it is a space fighter jet that poses a great threat to Meriken.

King of Understanding and the Commander of the Space Force John nodded frequently now. Cromwell is OK, and unknowingly brought people's thoughts to the right track.

It's a talent.

After confirming the threat, it will be easy to talk about it. Since there is already a space force, the threat from space is naturally under their control.

Then John then rose again, and the reality said that he was not in enough work, and then led the topic to the current situation of the Space Force.

"Other services have their own proprietary weapons, and the Space Force only has control over satellite cameras. As it turns out, the camera cannot shoot down enemy space fighters!"

John said so.

"We need real space weapons. Even if we can't have new ones in a short period of time, we must quickly arm the x-37b and turn it into a temporary orbital bomber."

"And I suggest restarting the 'Adventure Star' program, which is the real overlord of Earth orbit. Its technical verification machine 'x-33' can compete with 'dart x', not to mention that we have a large number of pre-technology of 'x-33'. 20 years have passed, and I think we can achieve it in a few months!"
