Chapter 804: A sudden turn of events

The party was very fun.

Gao Guang didn't dare to be unscrupulous, but now, after all, he didn't have to be as cautious as before.

I don’t dare to get carried away, but after Lloyd went up, as a staunch ally and loyal comrade of Lloyd, Gao Guang was as low-key as before, then it was not low-key but hypocritical.

So the party called to celebrate the recovery of the leg injury is actually a celebration of Lloyd's ascension to the position. This is a double happiness, and everyone related to the highlight can take this opportunity to celebrate.

The muscles in his left leg are a little weak, and Gao Guang is used to protecting his left leg, so Gao Guang didn't move much today. However, when he accepted the congratulations of many relatives and friends today, he made an exception and drank a lot of wine.

When you are happy in life, you must have all the fun, and even Mike, who has always been a teetotaler, made an exception and drank a few drinks. Gao Guang felt that he could definitely have three happy days today.

Laura is exceptionally good-looking today. Although she is not very good at dressing up or putting on makeup, today is a special day. Sarah did not leave. She personally helped Laura choose a dress and put on makeup for Laura herself.

Before watching Laura, I always felt that there was some psychological burden in my heart, because Gao Guang always felt that Otto had forced Laura on him, so the relationship was established, but Gao Guang and Laura were limited to holding hands and kissing at most.

It’s a night of flowers and candles in the bridal chamber, and it’s time to inscribe names on the gold medal list.

Lloyd's rise to the top is equivalent to being named on the gold list. Wouldn't it be more beautiful to have a wedding night with flowers and candles? Today, Gao Guang decided to wait for everyone else to leave, and it was time to make a breakthrough.

The anticipated moment finally arrived. Gao Guang raised his voice and said loudly: "Everyone, be quiet, be quiet. The time is up. Let's watch the news."

It's evening, it's time, it's time to appoint some generals.

Promotion at the level of general is very troublesome, but the special thing about Lloyd is that he will get the position first. After getting the position of commander of European Command, he will be recommended by the ministers of the navy, army and air force, or joint operations.

It is recommended by the headquarters and then approved by the Senate, which includes the position and military rank.

Another route is to get a special appointment from the president, and Lloyd has met all the hard targets, so as long as the president gives him a special appointment tonight, as temporary acting commander of Europe, and then raises his military rank, then everything will be fine.

Although the appointment ceremony will not be broadcast live, the news will be released as soon as possible. At that time, several news channels will release the news in the form of at least one text scroll.

According to time, the appointment ceremony is about to begin.

There were a lot of people, but everyone was quiet and watching any news station, but no one was interested in the news screen being broadcast. Everyone was watching the string of text messages at the bottom of the screen.

Hold your breath and wait for the arrival of the good news.

When Mike arrived at Gao Guang's side, he held a wine glass and couldn't help but put his arm on Gao Guang's shoulders and whispered: "Boss! Really, I'm so happy today. Congratulations, you finally...

finally""

Finally, Mike couldn't say anything. Gao Guang said softly: "Wait, don't say it yet, the news will come out soon."

Such a major matter of promotion cannot be concealed in advance. Lloyd will definitely get the news in advance, and since he said it has been done, it is a certainty.

But there was no official announcement, so it didn’t matter after all. After all, there was still a little bit of worry. Finally, the text message came out.

Laura couldn't help but said: "There is news." A line of words began to appear on the screen.

"The latest news is that Mr. President has made new appointments to a group of generals, appointing Air Force General Ted Walls as Commander of the European Command, and Lieutenant General Lloyd as the President's Special Military Advisor."

When the name of Falk Walls came out, Highlight felt something bad, and after the line of words was displayed completely, his head suddenly felt dizzy.

It was not Lloyd, but Fokker Walls, who came from the Air Force and took over as commander in Europe.

Lloyd's position is also good, special military adviser, but compared to the commander in Europe, this position seems too useless now.

His head was a little dizzy and his ears were ringing. Gao Guang shook his head and looked at the people around him. Could it be that his eyes were blurred after drinking too much?

Mike's expression had solidified, and his arm was still on Gao Guang's shoulders, but it suddenly became much heavier.

Jane raised her head and moved her neck slightly, but Sarah, after a brief shock, looked at Gao Guang with a frown.

John was not in a wheelchair today, he was using a prosthetic leg. After seeing the words on the news, his face was filled with astonishment.

Riccardo looked at Gao Guang with a worried look. He was shocked and took a step towards Gao Guang, but he didn't make a sound. There was deathly silence.

Gao Guang swallowed hard, then he raised his glass with a smile and said, "Well, let's continue drinking."

Laura picked up the remote control and turned off the TV. Then Mike quietly picked up the arm that was on Gao Guang's shoulder. He held the wine glass and forced out a smile with great difficulty on his dark face. He wanted to say something, but in the end he failed.

It's to drink all the wine in the cup.

This shouldn't be like this. How could something that was already a done deal suddenly change? Gao Guang was in a mess, but he didn't want to show it.

There is actually no point in trying to stay calm. Lloyd's appointment has changed, and the commander he received is no longer available, which means something is wrong. I don't know where the problem is, but it is obvious that the problem is serious.

One situation is that Lloyd can't hold his breath and starts to show off anxiously when he gets wind of it. That is his own problem, but this is

That's okay, at most it's just that Lloyd didn't understand the situation.

Another situation is that Lloyd is successfully blocked by competitors.

Lloyd is by no means the kind of person who can't hold his breath. That can only be the second situation. Lloyd was severely fooled. If he doesn't advance, he will retreat. After the duck that Lloyd got has flown,

High-gloss days are hard.

If the European Commander is snatched away by a competitor, how will Gaoguang continue to do business? It is not even a question of whether the business can continue, but whether Gaoguang can survive.

When one is prosperous, both are prosperous; when one is lost, both are harmed.

But Gao Guang didn't want to show his disappointment and fear. If the boss panicked first, what would the people below do, so Gao Guang had to act very calm.

When Gao Guang turned around, his face was already full of smiles. He raised his glass and said: "To congratulate General Lloyd on his new appointment, everyone cheers."

"cheers!"

"cheers."

The atmosphere did not cool down immediately, and it even seemed more lively and cheerful than before. Everyone was talking happily, but if you listened carefully, you found that the conversation had turned into meaningless nonsense.

Some people know what's going on, but some people who are slow to react or don't know the difference between Lloyd and others, such as Francisco, really think that Lloyd is a special military officer.

Consultants are also good news worth celebrating.

But I still understand that there are many people, and they all know that Gao Guang has something very important to talk about, so even though the atmosphere seems very warm, it cools down too quickly.

The party only lasted ten minutes. When Sara was the first to leave, the crowd quickly dispersed. In the end, only Gao Guang and Laura were left, as well as Jane and Riccardo.

Riccardo said to Gao Guang: "Is there anything I need to clean up?"

Riccardo was very careful, but Gao Guang smiled and said: "It's okay, you can go back, um, no, you can stay and wait for the news."

Jane is a member of a shooting club and she must know what is going on.

Laura, she really didn’t understand much about this kind of thing, but at least she knew that something big had happened, and she could guess that the situation was not very good. The four of them just sat there until Jane suddenly said: "This situation is obviously wrong. I

judge."

Jane was unusually irritable. She took out her cigarette case and put a cigarette in her mouth. Then she said solemnly: "It depends on where the problem is, but we are in trouble."

If the competition fails, there is nothing to say, but if something that is almost certain suddenly undergoes a sudden reversal, then the smell of conspiracy will be too strong.

Now we can only wait for news from Lloyd, but he is in the White House now and cannot tell Gao Guang what happened too quickly. Finally, half an hour after seeing the news on the news, Gao Guang's phone rang

Already.

Gao Guang immediately answered the phone, and then he heard Lloyd whisper in a calm but slow tone: "Have you seen the news?"

"You saw it, what happened?"

Lloyd sighed softly, and then he continued in a low voice: "This morning, the president called me personally to tell me that he was going to appoint me as the commander in Europe, but in the evening, he directly announced the appointment of Fokker as the commander in Europe.

Commander, I don’t know what happened yet, but Fokker is from over there.”

The worst happened.

The winner is not the competitor, but the enemy!

The executive was silent for a moment, and then he whispered: "How to deal with it?"

"Don't worry, the special military adviser is also very important. He doesn't have a specific position, but he can intervene in everything. I lost, but not completely. The situation is not too bad now."

Lloyd comforted Gao Guang for a moment, and then he whispered: "I suspect that the president's attitude has changed, but I don't know what has been done over there, so I have to find out why the president's attitude suddenly changed.

"

Gao Guang whispered: "If Fokker is from over there, then we have to give in, be mentally prepared, take the initiative to shrink, and let out if we can't keep it, so as to avoid an immediate conflict. The primary goal now should be to preserve our strength.

,General, what do you think?"

Lloyd's tone sounded calm, but Gao Guang knew that he was extremely angry.

Therefore, although Gao Guang was extremely disappointed, he did not forget to remind Lloyd because he was afraid that Lloyd would do something irrational when he was extremely angry.

Those who want to achieve great things must at least recognize the situation clearly, and at least have a basis for advancing and retreating.

Lloyd was silent for a moment, and then he whispered: "I'm relieved that you have this idea. Let's hold a meeting to discuss it tonight and wait for my news."

"Okay, we'll wait for your news."

This is a crisis that the shooting club needs to face collectively. The matter has been resolved. It depends on how to face it next. Gao Guang hung up the phone and looked at Jane.

Jane breathed lightly, smiled reluctantly, and said: "I was worried that you would be furious, but your reaction was better than I thought. You are very calm, so I have nothing to advise you. Just wait for the news.

.”

Before Jane's cigarette was lit, Gao Guang reached out and pulled out the cigarette case from Jane's hand. He opened it and took out a cigarette. Riccardo immediately took out a lighter from his pocket, lit Jane's cigarette first, and then

Added smoke to the highlights.

Riccardo also lost his composure. He couldn't even remember to light a cigarette unless he was holding a cigarette.

Gao Guang took a sip, and then he whispered to Jane: "I think this is a bit outrageous. Although I don't know how they did it over there, they broke the rules. Well, it's a blessing in disguise.
