At night, Branquno was called out from the bed by the secretary. When he arrived at Sautian, the second-rank, Secretary of State Sallivan, Secretary of Defense Duchwi, National Security Advisor Princeton, and Director Davis were whispering to discuss what had just happened... When he saw the president, Sallivan coughed dryly and stopped the topic.

Because Branmanno had outstanding political talents and mastered the way of governing the country, he was completely different from Westwood when he chose Secretary of State. Sallivan was not proficient in economy. He didn't even have much economic experience, but was a veritable diplomat. Before becoming Secretary of State, he served as an envoy abroad during Jabel's administration, and served as the chief representative of the United Nations during Frederick's administration. During Westwood's administration, he served as an assistant secretary of state specializing in Latin America. From choosing Sallivan

As Secretary of State, we can see that because of the lack of experience in the federal government, Brancono lacks diplomatic talent and needs a senior thug who is proficient in diplomacy. What’s more important is that Sallivan plays an important role in Brandino’s cabinet. Although as a shrewd politician, Brandivan not only has amazing value judgment, but also never favors a certain staff member, but due to his own abilities, Brancono still mainly listens to Sallivan’s suggestions and opinions in terms of foreign policy.

Because Brancombeno adopted a basic national strategy of comprehensive contraction, he needed a senior diplomat like Sallivan as a staff officer on diplomatic issues.

It is not difficult to see that what Brandino values ​​is not a certain political faction, but his own strength.

In addition to Sallivan, who is proficient in diplomacy, Brancono also has Princeton, who is proficient in international strategy, and intelligence expert Davis. Of course, military expert Duchway is also an important member of Brandino's cabinet.

It was completely different from what Westwood encountered when forming the First Realm Cabinet Government, after Brandino was elected, the list of cabinet members submitted to Congress was not questioned by anyone. Many senior politicians and political commentators even believed that Brancono formed the most powerful cabinet government in the United States during the century.

Being able to hold so many outstanding talents in your hands is enough to prove the means of Branforno cage giving people the hearts.

From another perspective, this is also a reflection of the unprecedentedly powerful challenges of the United States. According to comments from the American news media such as Deletion, during the reign of Brandino, that is, the year of strength to year of drowning, it will be the most important historical turning point that the United States has experienced since World War II. As the global Great Depression completely subsides, the order of great powers confirmed and consolidated during the Great Depression will become the main game rule of the international community. The rapid rise of great powers led by the Republic, the EU, and Russia will inevitably pose a challenge to the United States' international status and completely break the previous world pattern. If the United States cannot seize the opportunity in this once-in-a-century historical change, Apple will be eliminated by history and become a third-rate country.

It has to be admitted that Americans have a strong sense of crisis.

Strictly speaking, the comments are not wrong.

With the Fourth India-Pakistan War as a symbol, the Republic has already advanced on the road to challenging the United States. For any country with the potential to become a world superpower, the power year is enough to decide whether it can become a real world hegemon. At that time, the United States only used force for many years from the beginning of World War I to the complete replacement of Britain's hegemony after World War II. As a negative example, Germany only used force for many years from the beginning of William II to the complete defeat of the first World War.

From the standpoint of the United States, unfortunately, the Republic is not an example of failure.

Over the years, the Republic has never suffered a defeat in international struggles. The United States has repeatedly failed.

Under this circumstance, no one can say that the US's sense of crisis is created out of nothing.

According to the view of most people, between the past years and the years, the Republic will surpass the United States and become the new world hegemon. It is precisely this that the American news media will issue the theory of thugs and collapse of the United States, believing that the United States has encountered the most severe challenge in history.

In the opinion of Brandino, it is indeed the case.

When the Republic made a big fuss about the Sikkim issue, Brandino knew that the Republic had pointed its gun at the last powerful enemy beside India.

Mu Yong doubted that as long as India was defeated, the rapid rise of the Republic could no longer be prevented.

History has amazing similarities. Anyone who is proficient in American history knows that before the United States became a world power, the United States spent decades to solve its surrounding problems, such as defeating Mexico, which was originally much stronger than the United States, defeating Spain, which dominated the Caribbean region, and controlling Canada to the north, and finally embarked on the road to competing for world hegemony with traditional powers, and became the most powerful country after the two world wars.

After Branmano sat down, he first asked Davis to introduce the situation.

After listening to Director Tian’s story, Brandino was not surprised, but just looked at Duchiwei, who was sitting next to Sallivan.

"We discussed it roughly and believed that the information provided by the Si was highly reliable." Sallivan broke the silence and said, "At this point, China's strategic intentions have been very obvious. Sikkim is just the fuse for launching a war. China will not make a big move just to help Sikkim establish its country, and will not stop at this time. Although we all believe that there will be no obstruction in declaring war on India with Wang Yuanqing's prestige, we also know that the evil has been "Zhi Qing has been promoting political reforms and repairing China's development one. As the head of state, he is indeed likely to give a speech at the highest authority to convince those representatives who have reservations about the war, so as to gain the full support of the people. Of course, with Wang Yuanqing's influence, the war action proposed by him will definitely be passed. What is missing now is the final declaration of war. If this is something that has been prepared long ago, China will issue a declaration of war within a few hours."

Branmanu said calmly: "How much impact will China officially declare war on India?"

Sallivan smiled bitterly and said, "Although we have no reason to believe that Wang Yuanqing is trying to annex a country with a population of 1.7 billion. And there is no reason to believe that Wang Yuanqing will deal with India like he did when he dealt with Japan, we have enough reason to believe that Wang Yuanqing declared war on India. It is to prepare for the scale of the war. With Chinese laws, the government's war mobilization ability without declaring war is very limited. At most, it can only win a small-scale local war. Obviously, this is not a small-scale local war, but a

A comprehensive war of regional nature. Compared with the Japanese war, the Chinese army dispatched ground troops on the first day of the war and invaded India. If this situation continues, China needs to invest at least one million ground troops. In this way, Wang Yuanqing must obtain the war authorization, implement national war mobilization, and at least in local areas to ensure the final victory. It is also true that Wang Yuanqing must declare war on India. It can be seen that the declaration of war is a clear signal that China actively expands the scale of the war."

Bran forced the noon to think for a while and said, "There is no other possibility?"

"We have also discussed other possibilities. However, based on the current situation, there is no need for China to make a fuss about the declaration of war. Wang Yuanqing is even more impossible to make a fuss about China's supreme authority." Sallivan sighed and said. "Facts have proved that Wang Yuanqing is a difficult opponent to understand, but he is not without trace. Looking at all his decisions after he came to power and even before he took power, it is not difficult to find that any decision made by Wang Yuanqing is related to China's national interests. From this, we can infer Wang Yuanqing's final decision based on China's national interests."

Branfono frowned slightly and pressed down Sallivan's words.

The Secretary of State knew that the president was a very smart person, so he didn't show off his skills.

"Since that's the case, we should be prepared." Brandino turned his eyes to Du Qiwei and said, "There is no doubt that we have always underestimated Wang Yuanqing's ambition and determination to achieve his goal. Perhaps we cannot understand what Wang Yuanqing did at all, but we must understand. This time it is a real sword and a gun. It is no longer a false one. Since Wang Yuanqing is preparing to launch a full-scale war, the martial artists should take this opportunity to attack China."

"India will definitely be defeated. It will be the same if we have our support." Duqiwei sighed and said, "Even if we send troops to help India fight, it is impossible to defeat China on the South Asian subcontinent. Of course, based on the domestic situation, I do not recommend sending troops to India."

Branmano smiled and signaled Duchwie to continue.

"Since India will inevitably be defeated, all we can do is to provide support to India as much as possible." Duqiwei paused for a moment and said. "In other words, we must provide India with enough weapons and equipment before India is defeated, so that in the next few years, there will be no shortage of weapons and equipment in India to resist the occupying forces and the pro-China government."

"Turn India into a quagmire of war?" Princeton interjected.

Duqiwei nodded and left the opportunity to speak to the security consultant.

Branbuno did not let this question go and turned his attention to Princeton.

"This is indeed the best strategy we can take." Princeton was prepared for a long time. "India is not Japan. China cannot deal with India like it is against Japan, and the current international situation does not allow China to deal with India with extreme means. For China, the only way to end the war is to overthrow the current Indian regime and support the pro-China regime. Thus controlling India. From the perspective of China's domestic situation, Wang Yuanqing will not rashly fight a long-term war of attrition under the premise that political reform has not yet received significant results. Combining these two factors,

The country will definitely fight a decisive battle, achieve the goal of the war as quickly as possible, and then end the war action. From another perspective, Lurajapani is very clear about Wang Yuanqing's intentions, and has not made decisive concessions on the issue of war. He hopes to suppress China's war ambitions through strong resistance and ultimately force China to admit to launching a war that cannot be won. As General Duqiwei said, regardless of whether we intervene or not, India will lose this war. Wang Yuanqing prepared with four people and launched the war in the last two years of his rule.

From this, we can conclude that China has made sufficient preparations for war and will end large-scale military operations within one and a half years. The battle situation on the first day can also illustrate the problem. The Indian army is vulnerable, and China's military advantage is very obvious. The collapse of the Indian government and even the fall of New Delhi is only a matter of time. To this point, only two situations will occur. One is that India is completely defeated and left to China's mercy. The other is that a civil war broke out in India and a situation of confrontation between the north and the south has emerged. The former is most beneficial to China, while the latter is most beneficial to us.

With our full intervention, there may be a third situation. That is, the collapse of the Indian central government and a pro-China government will occur. Local resistance forces will grow rapidly. Entering the continuous "Youran situation may not be the most beneficial to us, but we can pass two or two; the purpose of the country. Judging from Wang Yuanqing's determination, it is difficult for us to make India the second situation mentioned above, that is, to establish a resistance regime in the south. In this way, we can only retreat and strive to make India a war quagmire that will prevent China from getting out of smoothly."

Brandino was also thinking while Princeton analyzed the situation.

The final result of a game between great powers is often mutual compromise. It is difficult for either side to achieve all goals. If the United States wants to prevent China from achieving its ultimate goal, it must lower its own goals.

After pondering for a while, Branjuno said: "It is true. We cannot stop India from losing, but only make India's defeat the most valuable."

Sallivan frowned slightly, as if he wanted to say something. In the end, he still held back.

Branmano turned his attention to Davis and said, "Because we cannot directly intervene in the war, Tian must take on the main work. In order to maximize the restraint of China, India must provide capital that is sufficient to resist China or other countries' long-term occupation before India is defeated."

"We need time to draw up a detailed plan." Davis paused for a moment and said, "It's enough for a thug. In addition, we also need the president's authorization and obtain the necessary funds to purchase weapons and equipment and establish weapons delivery channels."

Branbuno nodded and said, "I have seen the detailed thugs. "After I will give four actions authorizations. The funds will be subject to the Secretary of State and determined by the specific plan."

Davis glanced at Sallivan sitting opposite him and said nothing more.

"If India wants to have the capital to resist the war for a long time, we have to prepare diplomatically."

Branbano had long expected Sallivan to say such things, so he left the opportunity to speak to the Secretary of State.

"Although China has found a reason to expand the scale of the war, it will even join forces with neighboring countries including Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh, Myanmar and Sri Lanka. With the help of allies, it will reduce the pressure on war and at least achieve the goal of reducing military investment. The problem is that Western countries, including us, will not let China act recklessly, or at least let China occupy India without any resistance and overthrow India's legitimate regime." Sallivan exclaimed and said, "After the outbreak of the war, many Western countries, including the EU, have expressed strong dissatisfaction. After all, not only we have interests in India, but also in India, the EU, Canada, Australia, and even Russia. If China defeats India, the interests of these countries will be threatened.

The ultimate goal is to restrain China, and to achieve this pound, the purpose is to create unsolvable troubles for China. With the entire Indian Navy being wiped out, the Chinese fleet enters the Indian Ocean. China will definitely implement a strategic blockade on India in the near future to set a foundation for the final defeat of India. I believe that diplomatic actions must be carried out as soon as possible, joining forces with many Western countries, including Russia, to put pressure on China and force China to give up its strategic blockade on India. It can also delay China's war actions through other methods, such as peaceful mediation, and gain more time. From a diplomatic perspective, only when we take active actions can we provide India with the greatest help and take the initiative. Let China consider the pressure of the international community when expanding the scale of the war

No one objected to Sallivan's suggestion because, in the absence of the United States' military intervention, diplomatic action was the only way the United States could take, besides providing material and intelligence assistance to India.

Branbu No agreed with the Secretary of State's proposal, and of course the specific executor is also the Secretary of State.

As the meeting was about to end, the secretary came to the study, turned on the TV, and transferred to the International News Channel.

When they saw the news, everyone, including Branbano, showed a look of surprise because the Chinese head of state Wang Yuanqinggang issued a war declaration through the TV news channel.

The translation of the same voice of the new was very good, and the entire declaration of war only had a few hundred words.

After listening, Brandino and others immediately realized that this too brief war declaration was not as severe as everyone imagined, and Wang Yuanqing seemed to have reservations. Not to mention anything else, in the reason for declaring war, Wang Yuanqing focused on the fait accompli for India to send troops to invade Sikkim again. Although this is the main reason for China to expand the scale of the war, Wang Yuanqing overemphasized this reason in the war declaration. He must be avoiding more serious problems. In addition, in the purpose of the war, that is, the prerequisite for ending the war, Wang Yuanqing only briefly mentioned that it eliminated India's threat to the surrounding areas, without clearly mentioning whether it would overthrow the Indian government through war or carry out military occupation on India. Although the wording is very harsh, in the eyes of real politicians, this war declaration has other mystery.

Branmanno did not make any more decisions before figuring out the actual situation.

As a "bystander." The best strategy the United States can adopt is to "follow China's war and play a necessary role when necessary.
