The war can no longer be stopped by anyone or any force. Even if President Wang Hengyue issues an order to cease the war, it can no longer stop the continuation of the war.
If the person with the strongest determination to resist in Britain was Churchill, then the person with the same strong determination to resist in the United States was undoubtedly Pitt.
Pete was unwilling to give up, and Pete never gave up. He firmly believed that he could lead the United States to create a miracle, a miracle that would shock the whole world.
He ran around, calling on all Americans to unite and fight for a common goal:
victory!
Victory whatever is needed to defend America!
The person who has been by Pete's side is not Yu Yun, but Pete's wife Mary. This American woman has never experienced happiness between husband and wife since marrying Pete. Although she has long known that her husband does not love her, she still
She devoted herself to fulfilling the duties of a wife and the First Lady of the United States, and she never slacked off.
She also knew that the war had reached the most critical moment, both for the United States and for her husband.
A busy day made Mary exhausted. Her husband had to attend a dinner party in the evening and give a speech there. Mary could not accompany him this time. He returned to his father's house, where he met his father, Little Ivins.
Mary clearly found that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the manor. Her father and some political and business dignitaries were nervously talking about something there.
Mary briefly greeted them and then returned to her room. But she always felt that something was about to happen...
She quietly walked out of the room and came to the outside of the room where her father and his friends were. She put her ear to the door and listened quietly.
"Pete is no longer fit to be President of the United States, Ivins."
"Yes. I think so too. He must be responsible for everything in the United States. Evans."
"Check, Robbie, I think we can think about it again. I had an in-depth talk with Pete. He thinks he has the ability to defend the United States."
"Defend the United States? Ivins, don't be so naive. He can't defend the United States. Mexico has declared war on us. Of course, a Mexico is not terrible, but it is obvious that Mexico has the support of the Chinese and Germans.
Do. Do you think an America can withstand attacks from several directions?"
Mary outside the door heard her father become silent, and after a while Ivins said, "Do we really have to go that far?"
"Yes, we are ready. With Pete's character, he will not give up voluntarily. He will stubbornly persist to the end and lead the United States to destruction. We must end this terrible thing."
"Okay, okay..." Even outside the door, Mary could feel her father's despair. She heard her father say: "Pete is my son-in-law, but I will not sacrifice for him."
The future of America, since you all think so, let’s get started.”
"Thank you for your sacrifice for America, thank you."
When Mary heard that they were about to leave, she quickly left the place. After all the guests left, Mary walked into her father's room. She saw her father sitting blankly, smoking a cigarette.
...
"Father..." Mary called softly.
"Mary..." Evans raised his head and saw that it was his daughter, and forced a smile.
"Father." Mary sat down next to her father, her tone revealing tension, worry, and fear: "What do you want to do to Peter? I heard it outside just now."
Ivins smiled bitterly: "Nothing, we think that Pete, your husband has completed his mission as the President of the United States, and he should hand over this position to a more capable person...
...Where, although this sounds a bit embarrassing, there is actually nothing wrong if you think about it carefully. The president of the United States is the most difficult job in the world. Now Pete can put down this heavy burden and accompany you well.
It’s around!”
"Is that all?" Mary clearly didn't believe it.
"That's all. A father would never lie to his daughter." Evans' smile became even stiffer: "We just want him to end his mission."
Mary did not hear the pun in her father's words, and she breathed a sigh of relief: "Father, Cornwell is not suitable to be a president. Yes, I have always thought so. Although he is in front of all Americans,
He appears to be so strong, but in fact he is very fragile inside... He must rely on the support of that Chinese woman to do what he wants to do. I even think that once Cornwell loses Yu Yun
With support, what will happen to him?"
"Mary, go and rest early."
Seeing his daughter leave a little lonely, Evans fell into deep self-blame.
Yes, the daughter has never been happy. Her marriage to Pete was itself a marriage with strong political overtones. Pete has never truly loved his wife, which Ivins can be sure of. But Ivans
Steve and his father, Ivins Sr., never cared.
In their view, as long as a successful person can show his father's love in front of outsiders, that is enough.
But they sacrificed their daughter's life's happiness...
...
Peter put on his clothes carefully in front of the mirror. He tied his tie again and again, then turned around and asked his wife: "Is this okay with me?"
"Very energetic, Peter." Mary said with a smile.
"Today is a very important speech." Peter said energetically: "I will deliver a war speech in front of those big conglomerates. I need their support so that I can continue the war."
"You will succeed." Mary was still smiling: "No matter where you go, I will be by your side and watch your success."
"Thank you." Peter was moved by his wife.
Over the years, his wife has always stood by him without any regrets. No matter what he has done, the one who supports him the most is his wife Mary.
Maybe when the war is over, I should compensate her properly...
...
"Stationmaster, everything is ready. We can evacuate."
Yu Yun nodded and looked around. She suddenly realized that she had lived in the United States for so many years and had no luggage.
It feels a little strange. Maybe I have never regarded the United States as my home.
I have received a domestic order to evacuate immediately. The message was sent using Tianzi No. 1 code. This means that my latent life in the United States is finally coming to an end...
I’m going back to my country. I really want to go back to my country. I no longer have to wake up to nightmares every night.
The only thing she couldn't worry about was Pete. To be honest, Yu Yun knew that Pete loved her, but she had never loved Pete, not even for a day. She regarded Pete as her relative and a brother; she regarded Pete as her brother.
My own task. A task that must be completed, but it has nothing to do with love.
But now that she was about to leave the United States, Pete suddenly appeared in her heart, and this feeling was so strong.
"How's it going with Peter?" Yu Yun tried his best to sound calmer in his question.
"He will attend a speech today, which will be addressed to some big business figures in the United States... We seem to have heard some news... saying... that someone is going to be detrimental to Pete.
"
"It's not good for Peter?" Yu Yun frowned: "Did one of our people do it?"
"No, no one has given us any orders related to this. It should be done by the Americans themselves. Now the disappointment in Pete in the United States is serious. Many people think that Pete is no longer suitable to be the president of the United States. He should
He chose to resign voluntarily. But Pete refused to resign because he firmly believed that he could continue in this position."
"Do you know what it is about?"
"Maybe...maybe it was an assassination targeting him..."
Yu Yun suddenly became nervous.
Assassination? Assassination against Peter? God, who would have thought of doing this to Peter? At this moment, Yu Yun suddenly realized that he actually cared so much for Peter, maybe he had never noticed it before...
"Order everyone to evacuate immediately and complete all evacuation within ten days." Yu Yun's order became extremely firm.
"and you?"
"I will evacuate later to generate electricity domestically. The U.S. mission has been completed and the first batch of 'returnees' are on their way home. Please respond immediately."
"Webmaster, you..."
"Don't worry about me, I know how to take care of myself." After Yu Yun finished speaking, he walked to the table, opened the drawer, took out a pistol from it, then checked it and put it away carefully...
...
"Gentlemen, America is not in despair. On the contrary, this is just the beginning of America's hope!"
Pete raised his eyes and waved his arms vigorously: "We will definitely be able to defeat the Axis Powers and achieve the victory we want. But now, the United States needs your support! We will fight in the sky and the Axis
The Heartland will fight the Axis Powers on the sea and the Axis Powers on land."
"What about Mexico? Should I give them a turkey and ask them to go home?"
Someone said this sarcastically, which immediately elicited a burst of snickers.
Pitt controlled his anger: "I have sent the best generals and the best soldiers to repel the Mexican invasion. I believe our army can do it. Our main enemy is not Mexico, but
It's a threat from China and Germany."
"Mr. President, now that you can clearly see this, it is best." The leader of a large consortium stood up: "But how can we fight the Chinese and Germans now? On the sea, we lose
The air may not be completely occupied by the Axis powers now, but God knows when enemy planes will appear above our heads? Do you think that New York or Boston will be attacked by the air? This is not a terrible thing for the United States.
Disaster?"
Another American stood up: "Mr. President, it is difficult for us to continue to hold on. If we look purely at the balance of strength, we can continue to fight for a year or even longer, and the enemy will also be on American soil.
There are more corpses everywhere, but what special significance does this have for the United States? Our land will be bombed. Our homes will be destroyed, and our economy will suffer the heaviest blow. Do you think continued resistance will be important to the United States?
Isn’t it a terrible disaster?”
"Sir, this is terrible defeatism." Pete pursed his lips: "The United States will never surrender to a foreign aggressive force. Never. Yes. Our economy will suffer a terrible blow, but this is worse than surrender.
We can definitely bear the economic losses. Victory is the most important thing to us..."
"Enough!" the American interrupted the president rudely: "This is your war alone. You will be solely responsible for this war. The entire United States will not be destroyed with you because of your madness.
.You have lost our trust. I voted for you, and now it seems like a really crazy and brooding decision, yes!"
With that said, the American strode out without even bothering to look at Pete again.
As a result, more and more people stood up and walked out. Soon, only Mr. and Mrs. Pitt were left alone in such a large auditorium.
Mary quietly held her husband's hand.
Pete let out a long sigh!
When they walked out, there were no flowers and no cheers. This was a huge contrast to when Pete was elected President of the United States.
"Did I really do something wrong?" Peter asked softly. He seemed to be asking Mary, but also seemed to be asking himself.
"No, you did nothing wrong." Mary smiled and comforted her husband: "You never did anything wrong. It was them who were wrong."
"Thank you." Pete said gratefully.
"Mr. President, Mr. President, I support your decision. Long live the fight. America will never surrender, never!"
Suddenly, someone shouted out. Peter had not heard support for himself for a long time. He asked his bodyguard to bring the person over, and resolutely stopped the bodyguard from checking him. When the person arrived
After meeting him, Pete said gratefully: "Thank you for your support, sir!"
"No, it should be the United States thanking you." The man said, "I have a gift for you."
An unknown premonition suddenly arose in Mary's heart... Why...
The man put his hand into his pocket and took it out...
"Be careful, Peter!" Mary yelled, and then she stood in front of Peter... Gunshots rang out...
The assassin was subdued, but he did not give in, where he shouted: "Cornwell, you scum of America!"
Peter didn't hear what he was cursing at all. He hugged his wife tightly. At the moment when the assassin's gunshot fired, it was his wife who blocked the bullet with her body...
"Pete, Pete, I'm going to die." Mary said weakly.
"No, no, you won't die!" Peter shouted in panic: "Doctor, doctor!"
"Pete, it's useless, I can feel it." Facing death, Mary didn't have the slightest fear. There was even a relieved smile on her face: "Pete, have you ever loved me?"
Peter nodded vigorously: "Yes, I love you, I love you so deeply. Mary, hold on, the doctor will be here soon."
"Forgive my father, forgive him..." Mary's voice gradually became lower.
Peter didn't understand why his wife said such a thing. He was about to speak when he heard his wife say: "Pete, my father said that this seat is the most difficult seat in the world. Give up and stop paying for this country." what......"
Peter's hands were full of blood, and he didn't know what he should say.
Mary, Mary, I have never loved her, but she always silently dedicated everything to herself behind her. She even gave her own life for herself...
But why should he forgive his father? What does this have to do with her father Ivins?
Mary's eyes gradually closed, and no matter how much Peter called her, she could no longer open them.
Mary is dead, the wife of the President of the United States is dead.
Peter sadly held his wife's body and sat on the ground blankly. There were no tears or even sadness. Perhaps at this moment, Peter was completely desperate.
On the other side, Yu Yun saw all this... It was too late, it was too late, but fortunately, Mary used her own life to protect her husband.
She was a brave woman. Although she looked so weak before, she did not hesitate to step forward when she was needed most.
Perhaps, Mary thought that dying for her husband was the happiest thing.
So, if it were herself, would she do this? Yu Yun suddenly asked herself this in her heart, but she couldn't give herself the answer.
Placing Pitt in this position was a huge mistake for the United States. He was not suitable to be the president of a country, especially during a war. But he still sat in this position, so for Pitt His suffering has officially begun!
Yu Yun sighed softly.
Pete, Pete.
Why do you have to sit in this position?
A place that doesn't belong to you.
This was a disaster for Pitt himself and a disaster for America.
There is no end to the disaster.
However, the great disaster in the United States has just begun! (To be continued)
