**Chapter 182: Boss Tang, Loyal and Patriotic**
A team of Secret Service Agents arrived at the Blair Hotel scene almost simultaneously with General Ross. Leading them was a bald middle-aged man in a black suit and a purple tie.
The weather in Washington wasn't too hot today, but fine sweatdrops covered the middle-aged man's bald head.
"Director Sully!" Ross greeted the bald man. From his tone, it was clear they weren't particularly close.
Mark Sully, Director of the Secret Service.
Established in 1865, the Secret Service was initially founded within the Department of the Treasury, primarily responsible for combating counterfeit currency.
Its main duty was to combat the production of counterfeit currency domestically and prevent the forgery of important documents.
Later, the Secret Service gradually became responsible for protecting the President and their family, other high-ranking officials, and visiting foreign leaders!
Because it concerned their personal safety, every President, upon taking office, would replace the Director of the Secret Service with a trusted confidant.
Mark Sully was an old classmate of Federal President Garrett Walker. He had served in the Federal Rangers, and when Garrett Walker was Governor of Colorado, Mark Sully served as his security minister.
After Garrett Walker became the 45th Federal President, Mark Sully's status rose even higher, and he became the Director of the Secret Service.
It could be said that Mark Sully's position was built on the Federal President's trust. If something happened to Garrett Walker, he would be the first to suffer.
After all, the Secret Service itself is responsible for the Federal President's safety, equivalent to the personal Imperial Bodyguard in ancient The East.
If the President was assassinated, he, as the Director of the Secret Service, would be the first to be investigated.
No wonder his forehead was covered in sweatdrops.
After all, which official holding a key position in the Federation could withstand an investigation?
Even the Federal President, to avoid being held accountable afterward, has Lifetime Immunity after serving two terms.
Of course, it's worth mentioning the unlucky South Korean President here.
It's practically the highest-risk profession in South Korea, with a 90% chance of something going wrong.
Seeing the National Guard soldiers blocking the entrance and refusing entry,
Mark Sully was clearly more anxious than Ross. He signaled to the Secret Service Agents behind him, and several black-suited Agents stepped forward, ready to force their way in.
"Please don't make things difficult for us!"
The Colonel's face was equally stern, and his attitude was very firm. He ordered a dozen soldiers to form a human wall at the hotel entrance!
"Move aside!" If it weren't for those Mysterious Silver Liquids that could Devour Metal, Mark Sully was so angry he wanted to draw his Handgun directly—
The entire team of Secret Service Agents behind him stepped forward, shoving and pushing with the National Guard soldiers!
"Officer, they seem a bit off!" The Young Adjutant who had been standing beside Ross had been carefully observing the National Guard soldiers. Seeing the toughness they displayed, he leaned into Ross's ear and whispered.
Ross also saw it now. Not only were these National Guard soldiers tough, but their stance and the Military Prowess they showed were too professional—so professional they didn't seem like the National Guard.
The National Guard is part of the Federal Army, accounting for about half of its available combat strength or about one-third of its support system.
It currently comprises ten combat Divisions, twenty-two independent Brigades/Regiments, two Special Forces Groups, and one reconnaissance group. The Army National Guard alone has 440,000 personnel.
Its role is roughly equivalent to the reserve forces in The East.
The difference is that after multiple reductions in the Federal Army, some Army Divisions were transferred to the Army National Guard as complete units.
Therefore, some National Guard Divisions are actually small regular units rather than militias. For example, the 24th Division, which performed poorly in the Korean War, was demoted to the National Guard.
Although the National Guard's organizational System, Weapon Equipment, logistics supply, personnel system, and regulations are the same as active-duty forces.
National Guard members also participate in barracks training for forty-eight weekends each year and have one fifteen-day active-duty training session annually, which is joint training with corresponding active-duty units, so that they can quickly supplement active-duty units during wartime.
However, despite this, in terms of Military Prowess and combat Ability, the National Guard is clearly slightly inferior to the Federal regular Army, even the National Guard directly subordinate to the President's Command.
But the group of people General Ross saw before him appeared even more professional than the Air Force Special Forces he led.
"C Company, take them down!"
Ross watched the National Guard soldiers and Secret Service Agents shoving each other. With a wave of his hand, hundreds of armed soldiers behind him swarmed forward!
In groups of four or five, they took Action against the National Guard personnel and Secret Service Agents.
Mark Sully watched Ross order his men to Take Action. The iron-blue Expression on his face had just begun to ease, but unexpectedly, when he came back to his senses, he found that when those soldiers started beating people, they even surrounded his own Secret Service Agents.
"General Ross, this!?" Mark Sully pointed at his subordinates being beaten in the chaotic crowd, opening his mouth to look at General Ross.
"Director Sully, Time is tight. My soldiers don't have Time to distinguish who is your man. Let's leave it at this for now. Rescuing the President is the priority!"
General Ross waved his hand, interrupting Mark Sully's words—
Mark Sully wanted to say something more, but a figure in gold and red swooped down from High Altitude, brushing past his scalp and flying into the hotel Gate! In the Blair Hotel Hall, more than twenty Big men in National Guard Military Uniforms were surrounding T'Chaka, Natasha Romanoff, and the poor Federal President!
The Old Black Panther, who had just been formidable and incredibly brave while being besieged by a group of Hydra Agents, was now being supported by two Female Guards, his limbs weak, shrinking behind Natasha Romanoff and several Secret Service Agents.
At this moment, T'Chaka's right arm was not only dangling, but his right Foot was also lifted slightly, not daring to touch the Ground. It seemed that after dislocating his arm, his Foot also had problems.
Natasha Romanoff protected the Federal President behind her, looking at the two Strong men approaching her. She tossed her long hair, bit a strand of red hair in her mouth, and assumed a Krav Maga defensive posture.
"Very strong," this was Natasha Romanoff's experience fighting these two Strong men. In terms of Strength, she was no match for them, but these Winter Soldiers were slightly inferior to her in combat skills.
One-on-one, Natasha Romanoff was confident she could defeat and kill them, but two-on-one, and without a handy Weapon, all Natasha Romanoff could do was strategically retreat.
But behind her were her protection targets, including the Federal President. Clearly, she couldn't abandon them.
"Isn't this my personal assistant? Long Time no see, did you miss me?"
Natasha Romanoff clenched her Fists, fully focused, when explosive music suddenly echoed in the Hall, followed by a flippant Voice.
Natasha Romanoff's Expression relaxed when she heard the familiar teasing Voice. She unclenched her Fists and completely relaxed.
A figure in gold and red hovered in the Sky, White Light glowing in its Palm, aimed at the Terrorists surrounding the President.
