Change

Mr. President, Mr. Truman. Secretary of Defense, Chairman of the National Security Committee, Director of the Army Intelligence Directorate...

Many important figures went into a private room with Lin Qi. What Lin Qi was about to say was not suitable to be revealed at the moment, so the president chose to listen to what he had to say first before deciding what to do.

It must be said that the Federal is a very good country. It is very free, and everyone can express their opinions. It is also very... as long as you can persuade others to agree with your ideas, you can gain people's support.

From industry associations and labor unions to local governments, and then to the Senate and the House of Representatives, whether in the courtroom or in the president's office, as long as you have enough eloquence, supporting arguments, and valuable content, you will surely gain people's approval.

More than half an hour later, the group came out of the office. First, the president thanked everyone for their dedication in coming to the Presidential Palace in the middle of the night to discuss countermeasures, and then invited everyone to have breakfast together at the Presidential Palace.

This morning was definitely a day of suffering for the Presidential Palace chefs. They had never been so busy before. They prepared dozens of breakfasts in one morning, and they had to make them as much as possible at the same time.

In addition to these, the fleet that was returning home also began to change course and head towards the waters off the Amelia Region. Lin Qi persuaded the president.

Immediately afterwards, some important departments began holding press conferences, and today is destined to be recorded in history.

At eight o'clock in the morning, the Gefra Diplomatic Ambassador to the Bayer Federation, who had just gotten out of bed, slapped the buttocks of the two women next to him to wake them up.

After casually tossing a few banknotes on the bed, he went into the bathroom to wash himself.

Diplomatic Ambassador may seem like a very demanding job to many, because diplomatic work is unique and requires a high degree of resourcefulness, quick thinking, and a firm stance.

Often, Diplomatic Ambassador are not given enough time to discuss matters with their home countries. They are pressured to make decisions immediately, and any decision they make does not represent themselves, but the country behind them.

Before the outbreak of World War, Diplomat was indeed very difficult, requiring one to navigate between several or even more countries to find a balance of interests for one's own nation.

That period saw the emergence of many outstanding Diplomat Diplomat used various brilliant methods to persuade others to agree with their views and support their ideas, and also showed people the brilliance and danger of diplomacy.

But now it's much simpler.

You disagree?

Can't reach an agreement? He flips the table and roars, "The Imperial Navy fleet can turn your coastline into hell in just one week!"

During this period, Gefra's Diplomat were at their most comfortable; as long as they threatened others in this way, there was nothing they couldn't reach an agreement on.

The advantages of shifting from strategic diplomacy to power diplomacy are fully demonstrated: as long as a country is strong, it is difficult for people to refuse the requests of Diplomat.

After emerging from the bathroom, the Diplomat glanced somewhat strangely at the clock on the wall in the room. Logically, the naval battle should have ended, and he should have been contacted by his country to inform him of the outcome and the tasks he needed to undertake in the next phase.

But so far, he hasn't received a phone call, which has given him a vague sense of unease.

He picked up the phone to try and contact people back home, but there was no sound at all when he answered.

He walked quickly to the window and glanced outside. Federal soldiers had completely surrounded the embassy.

After a brief period of panic, Ambassador Gefra calmed down. There was no doubt that the invincible Royal Navy had once again won, which was why the Federal was so terrified that they went so far as to surround the embassy and restrict communication between the inside and outside.

Ambassador Gefra wore a sneer as he began to fantasize about slamming documents in the faces of Federal Diplomat to humiliate them.

When he reached the first floor, he saw two call girls standing somewhat awkwardly in the lobby. The area was completely sealed off; no one could enter or leave, including the two local call girls.

Gefra's Diplomatic Ambassador didn't mind showing his gentlemanly manners at this moment, just as Gefra's Invincible Fleet had destroyed the pride of the Federal, and he had also conquered the two women, so he didn't mind being a gentleman now.

He brought two young women to the outside of the Diplomatic Ambassador and made his demands. "I'm here and I'm not going anywhere, but you shouldn't make things difficult for these two ladies just because you lost the naval battle. They are innocent."

His slightly reserved chin-raising made him stand out, yet he wasn't arrogant. He wore a warm smile, but his demeanor was undeniably authoritative. He perfectly embodied the word "arrogant."

The soldiers outside the embassy didn't understand his request and didn't even say anything to him, which annoyed him.

"Bring your superior here!"

Shortly after, about ten minutes later, a car pulled up outside the embassy. By then, there were more reporters and onlookers outside the embassy. When the newly appointed Vice Minister of the Federal Ministry of Foreign Affairs appeared, the Diplomat from Gefra revealed a slightly arrogant smile.

He blinked, straightened his clothes, and prepared to publicly mock the deputy minister who had Vice Minister to negotiate, as if it were a joke, to sting the pride of the Federal people.

But before he could say anything, the Vice Minister loudly questioned him, "Besides supporting the Preton Pirate Group in indirectly controlling Nagaril's economy, have you done anything else shameful?"

The Vice Minister didn't speak as if it were a pre-arranged meeting; he spoke loudly, and reporters frantically took photos. Onlookers wore satisfied smiles; this news was quite interesting.

"What nonsense are you spouting?" Gefra's Diplomat only paused for a moment before realizing what he meant. "The great Imperial Emperor has always respected the sovereignty of any independent nation in the world, and we have never interfered in the internal affairs of other countries!"

Regardless of whether they truly hadn't interfered, he at least needed to state his position and attitude. This prompted the Diplomat, Gefra, to immediately realize the problem. "If there's a problem, we can find somewhere to discuss it; there's no need to stand here!"

He was about to walk inside and made an invitation gesture, but the Vice Minister did not give him the chance.

"No, I have to leave soon. I'm just here to inform you that during our operation to wipe out the Preton Pirate Group, we discovered what appears to be Gefra Royal Navy. It is helping them fight against our encirclement. You must explain this to us!"

Gefra's Diplomat managed to maintain his composure, asking softly, his voice no longer as confident as before, "What evidence do you have to support your claims?"

The Vice Minister stood tall, determined not to make the same mistake as his predecessor, who was sent to the west to engage in some kind of industrialization.

The situation has changed, and foreign policy now demands a tough stance; the old approach is no longer applicable. Therefore, he is being exceptionally tough. "We sank all the Pirate Ship, including those suspected to be active warships of the Gefra Royal Navy."

"You ask me what evidence I have?"

"Our salvage team is heading to the naval battle zone. Once we've salvaged those sunken ships, you, or His Your Majesty the Emperor, will be interested in explaining why Gefra's navy got involved with pirates!"

"Or rather, from the very beginning, it was the Gefra who supported or used the Preton Pirate Group to control the economy of the Nagaril United Kingdom!"

He glanced sideways at Gefra's Diplomat, then turned and walked toward his car. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs was preparing to hold a press conference to explain the matter, and as the newly appointed Vice Minister, he hoped to make a lasting impression on the national and even global audience.

The Diplomat from Gefra couldn't help but take two steps after him, but was stopped by the soldiers. He grabbed the railing and looked at the Vice Minister, who had already opened the car door, across the threshold that was clearly just a step away. He shouted, "I have no idea what you're saying. I need the authority to contact the outside world!"

The Vice Minister glanced at him a few more times before finally approving the request.

When he returned to his room, picked up the receiver, and slid the dial with trembling hands, he felt an unprecedented sense of suffocation that made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

Each busy tone seemed exceptionally long at this moment. After two transfers, the call was finally connected.

Gefra's Minister of Foreign Affairs, who had only recently left the Federal, now spoke with a completely different tone than when he arrived, his voice instead carrying a sense of dejection.

"Your Excellency, I have just heard something that I find unbelievable..."

Perhaps it was the fact that he was able to get through to the Minister of Foreign Affairs that brought him a sense of peace. His turbulent emotions gradually calmed down, and he recounted in detail what he knew.

He thought the Minister of Foreign Affairs would laugh and tell him it was a joke the Federal was playing to save face, but he was wrong.

"We can't be sure if it was a complete annihilation; we're still verifying. Also, your work has become extremely important now..."

"First, we firmly deny any connection between the Gefra Navy and the Preton Pirate Group."

"Second, find out which Federal fleet is carrying out this operation, their size, and their parameters..."

The buzzing in their ears blew the Diplomat into a daze. Apart from the symbolically significant battleships Triumph Princess and Knight Captain Commander, and eight destroyers and frigates, the entire First Fleet was annihilated! Still seeking confirmation?

That's just an excuse!

The news that the invincible Gefra Royal Navy had been defeated was so shocking that Diplomat knew without needing to use their brains to calculate it; the world order was about to undergo a huge change!
