Chapter 215: Capturing Blackheart, Locking the Ghost Rider
First, the Wakandans, taking advantage of the Allied Forces' ceasefire, launched a surprise attack, causing thousands of casualties among the Allied Forces.
Then, the World Security Council Coalition Forces counterattacked Wakanda, exploiting a vulnerability in Wakanda's Protective Shield.
The Allied Forces deployed hundreds of fighter jets and over 20,000 ground troops, at one point approaching Wakanda's Capital.
However, Wakanda's Protective Shield was suddenly repaired, directly cutting off the Armored Cluster that had penetrated into Wakandan territory.
This primarily included two Federal Armored Battalions, four Infantry Battalions that had come as Reinforcements, and several ground forces from the Allied Forces of France, the UK, and other countries.
To rescue this armored force, the Allied Forces used Medium-Range Tactical Nuclear Missiles against Wakanda, hoping to shatter Wakanda's Protective Shield.
As a result, this Tactical Nuclear Missile was intercepted by Wakanda.
The threatened Wakandans brazenly used high-power Vibranium Bombs to counterattack. This super bomb, second only to Nuclear Bombs, not only had astonishing explosive power, but also generated an electromagnetic Shockwave that could destroy all electromagnetic Equipment within twenty kilometers.
In one battle, the World Security Council Coalition Forces suffered over 60,000 fatalities, more than seventy percent of whom were Federal Soldiers.
The death toll once exceeded the total number of deaths in the Federal Government's two wars in the Middle East.
For a time, the entire Federation was in an uproar, and the Federal President's support rate plummeted to the bottom.
The exasperated President even convened a meeting at the White House, wanting to directly use a Strategic Nuclear Strike against Wakanda.
However, the next day, Wakanda detonated a Long-Range Nuclear Missile in a desert area in Africa.
The huge Mushroom Cloud was clearly displayed under the Federation's Satellite monitoring.
Then, the White House's proposal for a Nuclear Strike was shelved.
Previously, S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Director, Nick Fury, had submitted a report to the World Security Council.
He suspected that when the Soviet Union disintegrated, over eighty Nuclear Bombs flowed into Wakanda.
But a report is just a report.
When Wakanda truly demonstrated the Nuclear Weapons it possessed, the countries of the World Security Council fell silent one after another.
Send Reinforcements, unable to use Nuclear Strikes, to give the voters an explanation, the Federal Government could only Send Reinforcements, Division after Division, to Wakanda.
The Dark Clouds of war hung over the Federation. The Federal Army alone deployed a depth of over 80,000 troops outside Wakanda.
This war seemed to have become the Stage for the Federation and Wakanda.
No one likes war, except Arms Dealers.
………………
A week had passed since the escalation of the war situation in Wakanda. In front of The Pentagon, a middle-aged woman wearing a beige pencil skirt saw Tang Song out of the building. Tang Song had come to the Department of Defense for Arms Orders. With the Federation at war, the beneficiaries were naturally Arms Dealers like them.
This time, with the Reinforcements to Wakanda, the Department of Defense placed an Arms Order with a budget exceeding twenty billion. This Order was too much for a single Company to handle.
Therefore, the Department of Defense specifically invited several Major Arms Suppliers to The Pentagon for a meeting.
Because the former Minister of Defense, Raman, had been suspended, the White House had been slow to appoint a new Minister of Defense.
So, the Deputy Minister of Defense and the White House Secretary-General convened this Procurement meeting.
Calling it a meeting was really just everyone sitting down to divide the cake.
At the same time, the White House Secretary-General subtly hinted that he hoped the major Arms Dealers could use their Influence to help President Francis of the White House resolve the Public Opinion issues.
In front of The Pentagon, the White House Secretary-General shook hands with Tang Song: "Mr. Tang, Mr. President has always wanted to invite you to be a guest at the White House. As you know, he has been quite busy recently due to the matters in Wakanda...
I heard you recently purchased Shares in Time Warner and are now the fourth Major Shareholder of Time Warner. You also know that the recent Public Opinion regarding this war is very unfavorable to the President. I hope you will put in more effort."
"Secretary-General, you are too kind. The President and I are also Old Friends. I will definitely help with his matters!"
Tang Song replied with a smile that didn't reach his eyes. It seemed this Secretary-General truly didn't know about the grudges between him and President Francis.
Old Friend? The reason this Mr. President had been hesitant to meet him was perhaps out of fear of this Old Friend of his.
However, Mr. President, this time you are truly judging a gentleman by the standards of a villain. If he really wanted to make a move...
Did he really think not meeting him could prevent it?
The reason Tang Song didn't further expand his Influence after using the Stryker incident to remove Minister of Defense Raman was because he saw that President Francis was still useful.
This Mr. President's Attitude towards Tang Song was also one of hesitation to act for fear of repercussions.
That's why, during the previous Yashida Family incident, he stood on Tang Song's side and actively supported Mariko Yashida.
The relationship between the two was very interesting. If one were to rank the people in this world who most wanted Tang Song to disappear, Mr. President would be in the top three, if not first.
But paradoxically, he was also the one most worried about something happening to Tang Song.
During this period, he had not stopped infiltrating the Tang Group.
Among the new Employees recently recruited by the Tang Group during its expansion, there were no less than thirty Agents from the FBI, CIA, S.H.I.E.L.D., and various Intelligence Departments.
Of course, they only infiltrated the peripheral companies of the Tang Group.
As for the true Core departments, like the Hive Laboratory...
First, they had to undergo strict screening, which included a Heart-Questioning Mirror refined by Tang Song.
This Magic Tool alone, capable of Mind Reading, screened out ninety percent of those with malicious intentions.
