Dragon Clan: Lu Mingfei Returns from the Black Myth

Chapter 85 Nuclear Strike Alert Plan

"However, the tricky part is that even if we decide to completely abandon the heavy confidentiality agreement and tell the US government about the crisis that is quietly brewing at the moment... who can be easily convinced?"

Manstein's eyes gently swept across Schneider's face, and then he shook his head slowly in an almost heavy rhythm and continued, "Imagine that we told them that a legendary dragon king was secretly plotting to turn the prosperous city of Chicago into ashes, and that a doomsday catastrophe that would kill tens of millions of people was approaching? Their first reaction would undoubtedly be to conclude that we were insane, that we were lunatics who needed treatment, and that they wanted to send us to a mental hospital."

Manstein's words were like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, freezing the atmosphere in the entire conference room and plunging it into dead silence. Everyone's face was filled with confusion and helplessness. It was not good to keep it secret, and it was not good not to keep it secret either. So what should they do?
Are we really going to watch nearly 10 million innocent lives in the city of Chicago disappear into thin air at the wrath of the King of Bronze and Fire?

Just when everyone was in an unprecedented predicament and seemed to have no way out, Principal Angers' voice suddenly rang out, like a ray of light piercing through the dark clouds, bringing a glimmer of hope. His words revealed a well-thought-out decision:
"Ladies and gentlemen, perhaps we can change our thinking and adopt a more subtle approach. In order to make the US government face up to and believe that Chicago will face an unprecedented crisis in just seven days, we have other ways of expressing it, don't we?

It is true that the wrath of the Bronze and Fire King is terrifying, but with the rapid development of technology today, humans also have super weapons capable of self-destruction. We may be able to start from this perspective and use some special means to get the US government to take adequate warning actions. "

Super weapon? As soon as this word came out, it immediately caused an uproar in the conference room. Soon, the participants caught the solution that Principal Angers hinted at from his words.

"You mean... using nuclear weapons?" Professor Manstein lowered his voice involuntarily, his tone full of shock and uneasiness. He knew very well that although President Angers's idea might achieve the desired effect, its boldness was beyond imagination and unbelievable.

"That's right." Principal Angers looked firm and unwavering. "If we can convince the US government that Chicago will be hit by nuclear weapons on the day when the King of Bronze and Fire descends, then they will definitely take emergency measures to evacuate the people.

In this way, although the actual situation is different from a nuclear attack in form, the consequences and impacts are not far from it to some extent. It is possible for our secret party to continue to cover up the existence of dragons for thousands of years, so that it will not be completely exposed and destroyed because of this crisis. "

The heavy atmosphere in the conference room once again enveloped the previous heated discussion like a dark cloud, leaving only a suffocating silence. The eyes of each participant became deep and complicated, and they all fell into deep thinking about the plan proposed by President Angers, trying to analyze its feasibility from all angles.

"Under the current urgent situation, the plan proposed by the president is undoubtedly the most realistic and feasible... However, this is only relatively speaking." The vice president's words were full of helplessness and urgency. He raised several key questions in succession, "But how can we convince the US government that a nuclear strike is imminent? How can we ensure that our actions will not push human society into a more chaotic abyss, or even unfortunately trigger a nuclear war that can truly destroy the world, turning this hypothesis that was originally just a warning into a cruel reality?"

Professor Schneider took over the conversation. His voice was deep and powerful, revealing unquestionable authority: "Indeed, we have the technical ability to invade the US military system and borrow their missiles and satellites, but when it comes to actually launching nuclear weapons... that is simply a fantasy, far beyond our capabilities." He shook his head slightly and continued, "As for the source of nuclear weapons used to warn the United States, that is out of the question. We don't have such heavy weapons."

Facing the sharp questions raised by the two colleagues, Principal Angers nodded slightly. There was no wavering in his eyes, but a confident smile appeared on his face. After a short silence, he slowly spoke with a soothing power in his voice:

"What you are worried about is indeed an insurmountable obstacle before us... But I still have a solution. On this planet, there are currently eight countries that clearly possess nuclear weapons, and two more countries are suspected of possessing them. Although we do not have nuclear power ourselves, if we can cleverly use these non-US nuclear-armed countries and, through a carefully designed layout, allow the US intelligence agencies to capture 'precise intelligence' that is worthy of high attention, then a nuclear strike warning that is shocking enough to prompt the US to take defensive measures will no longer be out of reach."

“For countries like Britain, France, China and Russia, which are recognized by the international community as legitimate nuclear powers, their nuclear policies are stable and their internal monitoring is strict. It is undoubtedly very difficult for us to make arrangements among them to achieve our goals… However, if we change our thinking and turn our attention to those countries that also possess nuclear weapons but have deep contradictions or even hostility with the United States, things may be much simpler.

For example, the country in the north of the Northeast Asian peninsula has long been the focus of international attention, and its nuclear capabilities and stance pose a considerable threat to the United States; another example is the country in the West Asia region that has long been hostile to the United States, and the nuclear weapons in their hands are an indelible shadow in the mind of the United States. If we can deploy in these small countries with simple political structures and take advantage of their distrust and confrontation with the United States, our plan will undoubtedly be easier to implement. "

Principal Angers' words were like a stream of fresh air, instantly brightening the eyes of the participants. They seemed to see the dawn of success of the plan, and their originally heavy moods became much lighter. In this way, the feasibility of the plan that originally seemed out of reach was indeed greatly improved in theory.
