Chapter 149 Establishment of a Special External Department
"Fuck, this damn vampire, is he so poor and crazy?! Ten times?"
"Ten times I can buy a dozen atomic bombs and stuff them in his PY.
After hearing the deputy's words, Ross kicked the chair in front of him and spoke angrily.
The current situation was already giving him a headache, but now the other party actually asked for ten times the one-time price.
You must know that each drone they purchase here costs more than 10 million U.S. dollars, and they have to buy at least a hundred units to control the situation on the scene. If it is ten times more, it will be more than 10 billion U.S. dollars, almost Over 20 billion.
You must know that the county they are standing under has a GDP of less than 100 million US dollars a year.
Let’s not talk about whether he agrees or not.
With such a huge amount of money, Ross had no doubt that if he really gave it to him, the military generals would fly to him overnight and tear him apart, then take it out and sell it. .
"But, sir! If we don't agree, without the support of their drones, we won't have many available troops to devote to on-site virus control."
"Just relying on the local police, I think it's just giving us more enemies."
"And with all due respect, many police officers have begun to show fear after learning about the monster they are facing through news videos."
The deputy on the side also deeply understood the mood of his commander. After all, when he first heard the news, he was also angry. However, he understood that he had to give what he had to give. After all, there was no investment from the opponent's mechas. When it comes to on-site control, relying solely on the flesh and blood of the soldiers and armored vehicles is just delivering food.
"Perhaps, sir, you can convince the White House that we can use heavy firepower to carry out coverage bombing!"
"Or we can just kill first and then show off!!"
"I believe that as long as we control the scene, the White House will not be so aggressive."
After a pause, although the deputy felt that he should not say it, he still made another suggestion.
But after he finished speaking, he saw Ross looking at him as if he were a fool.
"Okay! I will step down from my post immediately. How about you become the general and be responsible for the on-site orders?"
After taking a deep look at his deputy, Ross took the initiative to speak.
"Haha! General, you are joking. You know, I have always just wanted to assist you!"
"How can I possibly do anything in your position, General Ross?"
After hearing Rose's words, the deputy at this time also smiled.
"Don't say you are my deputy. Even if you are a general, an admiral, or the president, he would not dare to give this order."
"If you order a bombing in the presence of our civilians, and it's still our territory, can you use your walnut-sized head to think about how big the public opinion will be on this matter?"
"Even if the president and the military all stand up to protect us, the angry American people and the whole world will not be able to tolerate us."
"idiot!"
Looking at the deputy in front of him, if Ross hadn't known that the deputy had been with him for more than ten years, for a moment, he would have even thought that the deputy was bribed by his competitor, and then cursed angrily.
"Sorry, sir, it's my problem."
"Then what should we do next!"
After seeing Ross being so angry, the deputy on the side couldn't help but apologize again and again, and then asked.
"Contact Pioneer Technology! If you purchase another group of tyrants, I won't believe it. Without him, Stark Group would not be able to solve this incident."
"Forget it, I'll fight it myself!"
After hearing the deputy's words, Ross also gave instructions, but after finishing speaking, he waved his hand and made a call himself.
"Hello?! General Ross, is it done so quickly?"
After connecting the phone, Killian, who was sitting in the office, said while watching the scene through the surveillance camera.
"Your Excellency Killian, the situation is urgent now. Without further ado, I need at least fifty tyrants and one billion US dollars. Can we get it done immediately?"
Without exchanging too many pleasantries with Killian, Rose got straight to the point.
After all, the president only gave him one day, and he couldn't waste any more.
"Fifty heads?! Of course, no problem, but actually you have a better choice! General Ross."
After hearing Rose's words, Killian smiled slightly, and then spoke in a mysterious tone.
"Better choice? What do you mean?"
And sure enough, after hearing Killian's words, Rose calmed down immediately, and then asked patiently.
"As our company continues to grow and expand, and in addition to the significant increase in crime rates in various cities we have seen in recent times, I am preparing to establish a system to protect company employees and residents of major cities. service department.”
"And if you agree, you will be able to see how powerful they are right away!"
After hearing that Rose took the bait, Killian's mouth curved slightly, and then he spoke.
To be honest, if this incident hadn't happened, Kilian would have been able to secretly expand his private armed forces. But now that he has this excuse, he can take advantage of this opportunity to get everything done in one step.
He believed that even for the sake of his ability to solve this crisis, the White House would agree.
"You want to turn your private armed forces into something similar to a government armed organization?"
"What exactly do you want to do?"
After hearing Kilian's words, Ross, who was already particularly keen on military affairs, instantly saw through Kilian's request. But what puzzled him was what the other party wanted to do with such a big movement. Then he asked.
"That said, we can protect our company's employees and serve residents of major cities to a greater extent within the scope of the law."
"So I need the presidential authorization signature from the White House to agree to the legal armed services established by Pioneer Technology in the United States to maintain national security."
"General Ross, if you can't make the decision, it's still not too late to call and ask. I'm not in a hurry. Believe me, as long as you agree, I can resolve the battle within half a day and completely resolve this matter."
"And within a day, all the people were out of safety, and within a week, the entire county was restored to the way it was at the beginning of the incident."
After hearing Rose's words, Killian said with a smile.
Then, Rose took the initiative to hang up the phone. Needless to say, Killian knew that the other party was reporting.
"Babai, how are the preparations going?"
At this time, Killian also asked the smart computer in front of him.
"Already prepared, a total of one thousand Black Watch troop members equipped with nanosuits, ten thousand T-800 robots, thirty thousand comprehensive service robots and fifty thousand medical assistance robots."
"Everything has now been landed on the large transport aircraft and can be rushed to the scene at any time."
Along with Killian's question, Dabai's voice immediately rang through the headset in Killian's ear.
"very good!"
…
And with Killian's confidence that he was sure of victory, Rose on the other side at this moment almost lost his temper.
Only then did he convince his immediate boss, four-star general Winston Harrison.
Let him connect with President Ellis.
"Harrison, Ross, how is the situation at the scene? Is it stable?"
After connecting to the live video link, President Ellis first greeted four-star General Harrison to show respect, and then spoke to Ross on the other side of the screen.
"Your Excellency, you are encountering some problems now. The best my troops can do is support me in stabilizing the current situation!"
"If we want to take full control, we need at least twice as many troops."
After hearing the dissatisfaction in the tone of the president in front of him, Ross gritted his teeth and said.
"Impossible, don't even think about it, let alone double the number of troops, even one more person, I can't give it to you."
"The White House think tank has reviewed everything. It was your initial carelessness and failure to control the situation that led to the current series of problems. I will not hold you accountable now, but what you need to know is that regarding I have enough complaints here to fill a basket."
After hearing Ross's words, the president directly vetoed it without thinking, and then snapped at him.
"Sorry, President Ellis, although there are certain problems on our military side in the initial handling, I believe the biggest problem is still the problem of local law enforcement and armed forces. Believe me, this is definitely not what we want to see. of."
"The reason why Ross came to you this time is also to propose a solution."
At this time, after watching the president reprimand Ross as if reprimanding his son, Harrison on the side took the initiative to speak.
"Tell me!"
After listening to Harrison's words, Ellis frowned and looked at Ross, then put away his temper, and then spoke in a deep voice.
"Your Excellency, according to my preliminary negotiations with Pioneer Technology, Pioneer Technology is willing to take the initiative to help us solve this biochemical leakage crisis, and promises that it will only take half a day to fully complete it and return to normal within one day. It also promised to take the initiative Help us complete the restoration work of urban construction."
"But they have a few requirements."
At the end of the sentence, Ross obviously hesitated.
"Go on, what's the request?"
After seeing Ross's appearance, President Ellis couldn't help but urge him.
What he hopes most now is to suppress this matter as much as possible. If possible, it is best to deal with it comprehensively.
God knows why he always does these things when re-election is about to happen.
"What they initially proposed was that they wanted to be formally integrated into our armed system. They hoped that the arms department under Pioneer Technology would become a legal armed organization under the US military..."
After hearing the president's instructions, Ross immediately began to speak, but before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Ellis.
"This is impossible...the army is the army, and no external factors can be mixed into it."
Then President Ellis said directly without listening.
"Yes! So after I firmly rejected their conditions, they proposed the last one, which is to establish a special department recognized by the US government and signed by the President personally."
"An armed department that serves the safety of Pioneer Technology employees and maintains the safety of citizens in cities within the United States."
At this time, after hearing the president's interruption, Ross paused and then continued.
"This is acceptable, but what do they want to do? Become volunteer police officers in American cities?"
"Isn't the happiness of our current city residents enough to reassure the chairman of Pioneer Technology?"
After hearing Ross's next conditions, President Ellis's face finally improved, but he still said dissatisfiedly.
"Haha, President Ellis, young people nowadays are like this."
"I finally got rich and have some money in my pocket, but as long as I see the news of people dying in the country, I will feel that my safety will also be affected."
"This is normal. After all, which rich person doesn't cherish his life?"
"In fact, this matter is very simple. You just need to agree to sign, but require that their actions must be carried out under the supervision and management of government agencies. This is enough."
"Isn't he going to serve the public and build a beautiful city? If this is done well, it means that President Ellis has a sharp vision and dares to innovate and reform."
"If it is not good, it will also hit the face of his pioneering technology. It has no impact on you, Mr. President."
After seeing the president's unhappy expression, Admiral Harrison at this time also stood up with a smile and spoke with emotion.
At this time, after listening to Admiral Harrison's words, it must be said that Ellis couldn't help but show a heartbeat on his face.
After all, as Harrison said, if this matter is done well, if Pioneer Technology can really be made into a star benchmark, it will be of great help to his next election.
Even if things get worse, under the supervision and management of the local government, it will not be too bad. It can be said that there are only benefits and no harm.
As for the worry that Pioneer Technology will become more powerful and come to an uprising, it's a joke. In this world, the US military is synonymous with the world's strongest military force. Not to mention a small company, even the former Soviet Union and the current Russia dare not take the initiative to provoke them.
"Okay, no problem, I will sign the presidential order immediately, but the deadline is only today. If I don't see the matter perfectly resolved before I get off work tonight, you will pack up and give way."
After nodding in agreement, the president spoke to Ross in front of him.
"Don't worry, Mr. President, I promise to complete the task! I will live up to the trust of the president and the White House."
After hearing the president's agreement, Ross also stood up with a happy face, and after a standard military salute, he also spoke.
Then, with the phone hung up, everything was settled.
And Killian, who was in the Pioneer Technology Building, also received the message of "OK" from Ross on his mobile phone, and his face smiled even more brilliantly.
"Dabai, take action!"
Then, with Killian's order.
In a huge lake deep in a mountainous area in Florida, the river water was seen pouring back from both sides, and a huge platform began to rise slowly in the middle, and on it, there were super-large transport planes nearly 700 meters long... No, perhaps at this moment, it can be described as a spaceship.
Directly after coming out, it flew straight to the target location.
...
After a long time.
Just when Ross was still worried about the movement of Pioneer Technology, he suddenly heard exclamations, and then when he went out, he saw pieces of shadows covering the sky and the sun slowly emerging in the sky above his head.
After seeing this scene, Ross felt as if he had traveled through time and space at once.
What caught his eye were several warships that covered the sky, and each of them was several times larger than the largest aircraft carrier of the US military that he knew so far.
In the eyes of everyone, a transport spaceship suddenly appeared in the sky.
The visual impact it brought to them was unimaginable.
It was a behemoth that no one had ever seen before. Even from the bottom, one could see the technology that was like an alien civilization. The whole body was like an aircraft carrier flying in the sky, and there were dozens of artillery tubes that were almost as thick as missiles underneath it.
There was also a color that was full of steel beauty, coupled with the uneven super-strong alloy metal and the dots of light on the warship composed of various lighting lamps, all of which told the future technology and oppression of this big guy.
The heavy steel texture on its surface was like what was shown in the science fiction blockbuster Star Wars, representing the cutting-edge wisdom and civilization of mankind.
The only difference from the extremely sci-fi appearance in Star Wars is that what appears before them now is more like a steel behemoth with extremely violent aesthetics created by human technology in the real world, belonging to modern wisdom.
At this moment, the spaceships appeared directly above their army like a huge mobile fortress, covering the entire sky tightly.
At this moment, just as the soldiers came to their senses and were about to point their guns at the transport ships in the sky, Ross's cell phone rang.
