Chapter 354: Incident 817
In 1963, American meteorologist Edward Lorenz submitted a paper titled "Deterministic Aperiodic Flows" to the New York Academy of Sciences.
Point out the chaotic phenomena produced by numerical calculations of atmospheric dynamics.
Initially, Lorenz used the "seagull effect" to describe the uncertainty brought about by chaotic phenomena.
In a later speech, he replaced the "seagull effect" with the more poetic "butterfly effect", which became widely known.
According to this effect, theoretically if a butterfly in Africa flaps its wings one more time, then after a long period of transmission.
The airflow created by the wings of this butterfly will form a storm in South America! Chaos is difficult to verify, but many scientists believe that it does happen.
Milo also always believed in the existence of this thing.
Because the Southeast Asian financial crisis in his memory should have occurred in 1997.
But in fact, I don’t know whether it is because of his appearance or other unpredictable reasons.
The Southeast Asian financial crisis in this time and space occurred more than a year earlier.
It began brewing in the second half of 1995 and spread across Asia in the first half of 1996.
In that time and space without Milo, if we were to list the event that had the greatest impact on the United States and even the world in the first decade of the 21st century, it would have to be 9/11.
September 11, 2001, several KBFZ chose the ironic date of the American police call.
They hijacked four passenger planes and launched suicide attacks in several locations.
Except for United Airlines Flight 93, which crashed outside Shanksville, Pennsylvania due to a passenger revolt.
The other three all accurately struck their targets: the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in New York and the Pentagon in Washington, D.C.
The disaster changed American life.
Apart from anything else, there are now many more inspection procedures when flying.
And if you told any jokes about plane crashes or bombs, you would be immediately asked to go somewhere else.
This is still an airport with a relatively good attitude. It is common for security guards to pin people to the ground...
Of course, for a wealthy man like Milo who owns more than one private jet, this is not a problem at all.
In addition, various bills to strengthen government power are constantly being introduced.
The United States began to get involved in the quagmire and indirectly caused the rise of the other side of the Pacific Ocean, etc.
The impact in all aspects is extremely far-reaching.
In addition, after the deep pain, there is also dissatisfaction with government policies.
Various conspiracy theories have also emerged, some blaming the government for its slow response.
Some people believe that the government had already received the intelligence but acquiesced to it, while others simply say that it was the government that created this terrorist incident.
In Milo's opinion, based on the information obtained from past and present lives...it is mainly this life.
The middle statement is the most likely, that is, the intelligence received by the relevant government departments.
But they didn't take it seriously, which eventually led to a disaster.
In addition, the US government has done this more than once.
The Maine and Pearl Harbor, after clearing away the fog, it is almost certain that they had obtained detailed intelligence before the start, but chose to let it go and eventually obtained an excuse to start a war and used the other side as a stepping stone.
There is even a lot of evidence showing that the USS Maine incident was planned by the United States itself.
There are enough benefits here for the financial groups behind it to push forward.
Large-scale arms sales, maintaining the dollar's peg to oil, combating the rise of the euro, and so on.
The other side of the Pacific Ocean might be a suitable target after the Red Empire.
But they like to be turtles so much that they can pretend not to see any provocation.
It was difficult to chew on it for a while, but now there is an opportunity coming to my doorstep.
Why not?
However, it would be stupid to say that 9/11 was staged and directed by the United States.
You have to know that if the government were to plan such a terrorist incident, it would take several years.
They have too much to consider.
This kind of thing that involves all aspects and has to be kept confidential is prone to mistakes.
Once it is leaked and there is hard evidence, the foundation of the United States will be completely shaken.
This is possible for the Maine because it is in Cuba and not the United States.
If this kind of thing is done in our country and it is fully confirmed, it will not be just a simple public outcry.
Don’t say that big corporations don’t care, that’s the stupidest idea.
For the 0.1% of Americans, the right thing to do is to make the rules and then make the most of them.
Such a thing as completely destroying the basis for establishing rules would never be done except in very special circumstances.
And 911 was not a special case in any way.
Although a lot of evidence seemed to be produced a few years later, most of this evidence was either inferred based on some inconsistent statements or was based on inaccurate evidence.
Either it is indirect evidence that is difficult to verify, or there is no direct evidence, let alone irrefutable evidence... This is the benefit of the presumption of innocence.
Of course, Milo is not an absolute person, and the possibility that the government planned it itself is as small as less than 1%.
But it does not rule out that there are always a few crazy guys. However, before there is more solid evidence, he will only assume the second case.
But...what he didn't expect was.
It is only 1999 now, similar to the 9/11 incident in his original time and space.
It happened.
It was completely unpredictable. Even Milo, the top leader of the Celestial Dragons, had not received any news of it before.
When he played golf with John Chris Morgan and David Rockefeller.
A Delta Air Lines Boeing 747 that took off from Miami and was supposed to be heading to Washington suddenly changed direction halfway and crashed into the Empire State Building, one of the most symbolic buildings in New York.
Half an hour later, another United Airlines 737 crashed into one of the Twin Towers.
Later, another plane crashed into DC.
But it was shot down in mid-air by the US Air Force who took off urgently.
The incident that was supposed to happen on 9/11 occurred on American soil two years earlier.
And before that, there were at least Milo, John Chris Morgan and David Rockefeller.
They received absolutely no intelligence or news.
Panic is spreading, and anger is spreading.
When Milo returned to the chaotic New York, the Empire State Building had already collapsed in flames and chaos.
In contrast, the Twin Towers should have been reduced to complete ruins two years later.
On the contrary, it is possible that due to the angle of impact, there was no fire, but only a large corner of the top layer was damaged.
There should have been some casualties because the occupancy rate there is extremely high.
But it hasn't collapsed yet.
"Oh my God! What on earth is happening? This is horrible!"
The several bridges leading outside Manhattan Island are now completely blocked by traffic.
Manhattan, once regarded as a paradise by countless people, now makes people want to escape from it.
Because everyone was worried that there would be a third, fourth or even fifth collision, or a war would break out directly! In the face of possible life-threatening dangers, no one could rationally continue to stay on the island.
The women and children living on Milo's island were naturally evacuated as soon as possible.
The one who uttered the above sigh was the pale-faced Liu Li.
They were in Queens now, and from a safe distance they could see the black smoke billowing from where the Empire State Building should have been.
On the other side of the Twin Towers, you can see that the top of one of them has been cut off in half.
Milo watched all this with a grim face, and turned back to direct the equally shocked United Global Security personnel.
Let them send his women and children to the underground sheltered manor villa on Long Island.
At this time, it should have been sent to his private armed base in New York State.
But the situation is chaotic now. Private armed forces that have military power but lack air defense may become targets of attack.
Although the probability was very low, Milo was unwilling to take the risk.
The manor is still a residential area for the time being and should be safer.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
After all, there are tens of thousands of similar manor houses throughout Long Island. Unless it is a targeted sniper attack on Milo Blackburn and related personnel, the security is still very high.
Wait until all the women have evacuated.
Milo went to JFK International Airport as soon as possible.
It is obvious that after the disaster, this place has been completely taken over by the army.
From now on, except for military aircraft, no aircraft will be allowed in the U.S. airspace and its outer airspace.
Simply put, if any non-military aircraft flew into the sky at this time, they would be shot down by the US air defense system immediately.
However, military aircraft do not face this risk.
So here he also saw David Rockefeller, John Chris Morgan and Lawrence Rockefeller with gloomy faces.
"Nice to meet you again." Milo, who had put his mood into good shape, greeted the three old men.
"You heard the news first, right?" Lawrence Rockefeller couldn't help but whisper to Milo as soon as he came up.
Milo rolled his eyes. “If I had gotten wind of this, I’d be in Washington, D.C., or Boston.”
Lawrence Rockefeller remained silent. He refused to admit that Milo was right.
Because if it were him, if he knew there would be such an attack in New York.
Even if the probability is very low, he will definitely hide in a safe place.
Where is the safest place for people like them?
One is the old nest, which has been in operation for many years. It is like a sudden civil war, which is safe for a certain period of time.
Another place, without a doubt, is Washington.
After all, it is the core of the empire, although many people think that the commander-in-chief is just a puppet.
But this is actually an illusion. Even if he is the most useless President of the United States, the power he possesses still ranks among the top among governments in the world.
Not to mention people like the Roosevelt uncle and nephew, Kennedy and others.
The power they held during their reign was even greater than that of kings and emperors of some feudal dynasties.
This refers specifically to Roosevelt Jr. His power in the United States at the time was basically more centralized than that of most ancient Chinese emperors.
So in the end, like some ancient Chinese emperors, he died in his safest white house.
So after making sure there was no risk of civil war, Milo prepared to go to Washington as soon as possible.
It's not just that it's safe there.
But everyone should be rushing there now.
Everyone needs to know who did it! Three old guys, Lawrence Rockefeller, John C. Morgan, and David Rockefeller, also came.
Apparently everyone was thinking of the same place and was all preparing to head to Washington.
"Let's go to Washington first." John Chris Morgan sighed and said, finally without that hearty smile on his face, "I'm sure it's definitely not one of us. Either someone is crazy, or the danger this time really comes from outside."
David Rockefeller, still sitting in a wheelchair, nodded and agreed with the words of the head of Morgan. "Chris is right. Let's go to Washington first. For safety reasons, I think the four of us should take the same plane."
"Agree!" John Chris Morgan replied immediately.
Lawrence Rockefeller and Milo naturally had no objection.
Very easy to understand.
After all, until now, apparently no one knows who did it.
But it is certain that the next period will be a turbulent time.
Everyone will be wary of each other and be alert to each other for a period of time.
For example, now, it is better not to know. Now that we already know that the other party is going to Washington.
Maybe someone went crazy and deliberately caused an accident or something.
After all, the whole country is in chaos now, and it is not impossible that one or two military planes may be lost.
Just like there are bigwigs from the consortium above.
As long as the big shots above die, it will be worth it for the instigator.
Because for the American financial groups, the ultimate means of all struggles and business wars is nothing more than physical annihilation...
So everyone got on the same plane and went to Washington together.
If something really goes wrong, we'll all be doomed.
The heirs of the next three parties will naturally hold up the banner of revenge for them, inheriting their power while avenging them.
"I agree."
The voice told Milo that the danger was over.
And it would indeed be safer to fly on the same plane with these old guys.
If you don't sit.
What about that strange behavior I had just experienced when I was playing golf?
It will definitely make these old guys doubt themselves even more.
If we don't want to cause unnecessary trouble, then... let's go to Washington together.
As for private planes not being able to fly, they are not soldiers, so logically there is nothing they can do about military planes.
But that is the truth, not the truth of the consortium.
Not to mention that only three parties are dispatched together.
Any one of the three parties can even command certain parts of the US military to a certain extent.
It should be said that most of the consortiums have this ability or power.
Those helpless influences and voices are extended to the barrel of the gun.
Then you have no right to eat at the table, you are only qualified to be the food on the table.
This is also the reason why the Texas consortium, although financially weak, has always been ranked among the top.
Because their military industry is not weak, because they have a voice in the barrel of their gun. This is how the world is, only those who master military power can control their own destiny.
At least it can make other people afraid.
