Salute To The General

Chapter 2555



In Alberesque in the South of Eurasia, the negotiation between Eurasia and Ariarica's representatives was still in progress. On that very day, Jessica's attitude was exceedingly forceful.

Staring at Zion and the other representatives of Eurasia sitting across from her frostily, she haughtily proclaimed, "This is the last chance I'm giving you. Our carrier battle group has already arrived. If you refuse to give in, I can't guarantee whether our carrier battle group will make a move." Zion had always been an elegant and easy-going person, but his expression instantly darkened the instant he heard that.

With a rare stony expression on his face, his tone likewise turned hard, and he questioned sternly, "Ms. Jessica, are you aware that you're now representing your country, so what is the meaning of your words? Are you threatening us now?"

Jessica exchanged a glance with her subordinates before all of them sneered.

Snorting, she asserted, "I'm warning you! Of course, if you want to take it as a threat, you may do so. If you don't agree to our decision to hike the tariffs and refuse to cooperate with us in punishing the Eurasian companies, I can't guarantee whether a conflict will break out. For instance, an armed conflict."

In a rare occurrence, Zion's blood boiled.

"Hah! It appears that you're still dreaming, thinking that we'll allow you to bully us arbitrarily as you did in the past. Let me tell you that you're wrong. Besides, such a mentality is very dangerous," he stated coldly.

Jerking up her chin, Jessica scoffed, "We're not the ones in danger. Instead, it's you. Our aircraft carrier, ships, submarines, and jets are already at your doorstep and might make a move anytime."

The atmosphere promptly turned tense.

Many had their gazes fixated on Zion, wondering whether a war would break out if the negotiation this time were to fold and whether Eurasia had the ability to hold its own against Ariarica and its allies if that were to happen.

Zion and Jessica stared into each other's eyes, their gazes clashing like lightning. It was as though flames might burst out of their eyes at anytime. Suddenly, Zion sneered, "Heh! Ms. Jessica, do you think that you can scare us with your carrier battle group and allied fleets? You probably haven't received the latest news from the frontlines, huh?"

Hearing that, Jessica was taken aback.

Her subordinates were likewise stunned.

None of them understood what Zion meant by that.

Could it be that there are new changes on the frontlines?

At that thought, Jessica's expression changed imperceptibly.

She was currently in Eurasia, negotiating with Zion, so it was indeed true that she couldn't obtain first-hand news anytime and anywhere like the latter when she was in a foreign country. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

A glimmer of panic flashed across her eyes, but she maintained a calm and unruffled expression. Feigning stolidity, she drawled, "Oh, what latest news did you receive from the frontlines? Could it be that our carrier battle group has entered your country's waters and gave you a scare?" Content belongs to

Zion smirked and suggested, "If you don't mind, let's call a halt to the negotiation first and watch an impromptu news broadcast by my country. What do you think?"

Jessica and her subordinates looked at each other before conversing in hushed tones.

At long last, she lifted her chin and assented arrogantly, “Okay, let's watch it then. We shall see what tricks you have up your sleeve when your enemies' fleets are right at your

doorstep."

Zion snickered but said nothing, merely ordering the staff there to play the latest news on the large screen in the conference room.

On the large screen was a relatively decent-looking male anchor reporting the news in a loud and resounding voice.

"In order to maintain regional peace

and stability, the country has made an impromptu decision to jointly conduct a large-scale military

exercise with Remdik on the Pacific Ocean. We have deployed the Southern Fleet. Meanwhile, Remdik has dispatched their renowned

Pacific Ocean Fleet to conduct a military exercise with us. Today, the fleets of both countries have

converged to conduct a military exercise. Unexpectedly, they bumped into Ariarica's carrier battle group which was also conducting an exercise. Ariarica's carrier battle group invaded our country's waters and executed a series of provocative actions. As such, the combined fleets under the personal command of the Chief Military Governor retaliated against those provocative actions. The Chief Military Governor even warned them not to underestimate Eurasian soldiers' determination to defend their homeland and to leave if they didn't want to die or for a war to break out. Before the broadcast of this news, our television station received the latest news that Max has already led Ariarica's carrier battle group out of Eurasia's waters for the time being."
