Chapter 1113 (2/2)

”It's me.”

A familiar voice appeared in my ear.

Daniel was stunned, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said with interest, ”Mr. Kerry? Dear Mr. Secretary of state, how do you think of my old friend

At the time of 2004, the Morgan group had placed a bet on Kerry, but Kerry eventually lost to Bush, and the investment was in vain. But Daniel doesn't see it as a failed investment, because ”double betting” is already a Wall Street tradition. No matter who is elected, the ”war on terror” in 2006 will not be affected.

What really makes Daniel regret is that after his failure in the 2004 election campaign, this promising politician has never shown any interest in the position of president and has wholeheartedly played the role of the Democratic Party's official diplomat.

”What do you think of the 19 year Asia Pacific joint military exercise?”

Kerry's open question made Daniel stunned. Then he seemed to understand something and said thoughtfully, ”if you are asking me whether I support you, my answer is yes.”

At this point, Daniel suddenly changed the subject and said with a smile, ”but is the pressure too light?”

”I think so too. The rise of star ring trade has seriously threatened our influence in the Asia Pacific region, and now it has been reflected in the economy. If I choose to appease at this time, it would be like giving up the hegemony that has been established for decades. ”After hearing Daniel's words, Kerry hid all his joy and excitement in his heart, and quietly continued,” Hillary and her team are preparing for the 20-year general election, if she is still in power for the next four years... ””There's no doubt it's going to be worse!” After knuckles pounded on the conference table, Daniel laughed twice, changed his mobile phone to another hand, and said brightly, ”Mr. Kerry, I know a good western restaurant. If you have some time after work, we might as well have a meal together and talk about next year's election.”

……

The bow of the ship splits into the raging waves. Ten dark and great figures are engraved on the rough sea with milky white waves.

On the USS Ford, Captain Hogg stood in the control tower, looking out to the southwest sea level.

Although he could not see anything standing here, he knew that it was the direction of Coro island.

Even the glare of the sun, but also can not cover his eyebrows between the proud.

And he and his fleet do have proud capital.

As the first new generation aircraft carrier designed by using CAD technology, the ”Ford class” shipboard equipment has been fully networked and computerized. The overall automation level is greatly increased compared with Nimitz class. The number of aircraft carrier personnel is reduced from 3190 to 2000. However, the efficiency of carrier based aircraft is 15% higher than that of Nimitz class, and the overall strike efficiency is more than doubled 。

In addition, the belt distribution system replaces the Nimitz class radial distribution system, which reduces the cable length and is easy to reconfigure, leaving enough space for the installation of electromagnetic gun, laser anti missile and anti-ship weapons in the future.

Although it has not yet experienced the actual combat, no matter from which point of view, the Ford class is worthy of the first place in the world.

”Report! The star ring trade fleet was found 100 kilometers to the southwest and confirmed as two guard class frigates. ” The adjutant stood at attention and reported to him, ”two frigates?” Hogg frowned at his subordinates' words.

It's no surprise that star ring trade will target them. After all, the carrier battle group is obviously aiming at them. From a distance of 100 kilometers, we can see that the other side is very cautious, reducing the possibility of gun fire to the limit. However, he can't understand if only two frigates are sent to follow from afar.

Is star ring trade so confident?

Or have they completely given up sea power?

”Send out shipboard planes to see what they're doing!” Hogg ordered in a deep voice.

”Yes The adjutant stood at attention, saluted and went away. (to be continued. )
