Chapter 894: Chapter 472: Angry, I Was Just Angry for a Mont!!_2
“I think you’re a spy for the United States!”
The old man nad Keller was furious. “Ronnie! Don’t you dare accuse . My eldest son serves in the military, my youngest son is enrolled in the Military Academy. My family has bled for xico, and the land I own was granted by the General. If the Yanks invade, I’ll fight alongside the General to drive them back.”
“At worst, it’s death.”
“Unlike you. Born without a pair to your na, you’d just hide in the back.”
As soon as those words left his mouth, the other man’s face contorted in rage as he gasped violently while seated. Elderly people nearby hurried to his side to ease his breathing and diate.
“Alright, alright, we’re all neighbors here. Say less. If your words cause him to collapse, how will you deal with it? Maybe your son will even have you executed,” soone tugged at Keller’s shirt and said.
Keller smacked his lips, glanced at the near-fainting Ronnie with a sidelong look and a snort—planning to quarrel with with that level of wit?
“Waiter, ten cups of coffee on today!” He raised his hand and shouted toward the bar.
“xican News Television…”
Just then, the sound broadcasting from the television hanging above captured the café’s attention. The female anchor, poised and dignified, had her golden hair swept back in a bun and wore a sleek black suit.
The noisy café fell silent imdiately, with everyone quietly listening.
“Now broadcasting a statent from the xican Governnt regarding X Weapons as follows:”
“At approximately 4:19 pm on February 27, 1992, the xican Governnt successfully detonated a test explosion of an X Weapon at the Chihuahua State Testing Ground. The total yield amounted to 90 kilotons of TNT, six tis more than the ‘Little Boy’ dropped on Hiroshima!”
“xico’s developnt and possession of X Weapons are solely for self-defense purposes and to prevent X blackmail. We will never use nuclear weapons first, nor will we use or threaten to use them against non-nuclear nations or regions.”
“However, should anyone dare to impose humiliation on xico under the guise of being a major power, we do not exclude the possibility of a first strike with X Weapons!”
…
Gulp.
The elderly patrons in the café stared wide-eyed in shock. No, to be precise, everyone in xico with access to a television had their eyes open to an unprecedented degree…
X Weapons?
Does xico have X Weapons?!!!
This thing—who globally isn’t familiar with it?
Japan still frequently prides itself on being “the country that experienced it twice.”
Why was Iraq crushed during the Gulf War?
Besides Saddam’s arrogance, disregarding the Yanks and damaging their Middle East interests, there was another reason…
He wanted to develop X Weapons!
“Babylon Operation” was nothing less than Israel’s counterstrike, wasn’t it?
You propose to create them—so what am I supposed to do then?
Might as well relocate and continue being a wandering nation.
This point…
No one ever criticized Israel’s actions, because… the big powers don’t want their influence undermined by others wielding “eternal-life capabilities.”
If word of this goes out, the whole world would band together to stop it.
Imagine an army originally carrying out anti-narcotics missions suddenly developing X Weapons? (Uncle Zhao scratched his head, “Bring the diagrams!”)
You hit us with this out of the blue?
The news anchor continued speaking on the television. “Led by Arican authorities, the Anti-Human Alliance relies on military might to act recklessly, plunging the world into chaos and suffering. The people of the Middle East have endured unbearable hardship!”
“Supporting terrorism, aiding anti-governnt ard forces to undermine other nations’ regis!”
“Indulging in drug trafficking, human smuggling—truly provoking widespread outrage!”
“Engaging in blatant hegemonism, imposing monetary sanctions!”
“Trying to control xico through force, coercing xicans into submission—this is absolutely impossible!”
“We are extraordinarily angry about this!”
“Explicit demands are as follows!”
“The Arican authorities must provide the world a clear account regarding the Red Shoes Club incident, as well as issue compensation for U.S. World War II veterans!”
“Additionally, they must offer a solution to the issue of the US-xico War. If Arican war-mongers attempt to continue fueling the conflict, we will fight to the death!”
The anchor’s commanding words rang out forcefully, as if centuries of pent-up frustration were unleashed in that mont.
“If within ten days the Arican authorities show no intent to negotiate, our forces will deploy SS-25 intercontinental missiles ard with X warheads to strike the southern Wall Street area of Manhattan District in New York City!”
“Do not say we didn’t warn you!”
“We will not tolerate this!”
“xican Governnt, March 1, 1992!”
…
The café was silent… eerily silent.
You could practically hear the beating of everyone’s hearts.
The next mont…
In a neighborhood not far away, an eruption of jubilant cheers broke out!
The elderly patrons sprang to their feet.
So even jumped onto tables, shouting incoherently at the top of their lungs—God knows what they were screaming, but you could tell… they were thrilled!
Who dares say this to the Aricans? “You owe an explanation. Refuse, and I’ll send sothing big to Wall Street?!”
It’s common knowledge national diplomacy is all about politeness…
But it’s way too polite with the Aricans, making them believe they can truly act without limits.
Sure, I know you’ve got X Weapons, but so do I. Worst case scenario—we all go down together, let’s blow everything up. Wall Street—how much wealth does it have?
How many tycoons?
How many elites?
They haven’t fully enjoyed life yet—are they willing to die with you?
Bah!
Don’t even think about it! If capitalists had such a spirit of martyrdom, they’d truly rank among the most loyal patriots ever.
This threat, actually, wasn’t directed solely at the U.S. Governnt—anyone with discerning eyes could see—it was aid at capitalism itself.
Internal clashes…
All I want is an answer.
“The xico Declaration” instantly spread through television dia to the world.
Victor has X Weapons now!
