Seeing that the construction of Tianyu New York branch base was gradually getting on track, Chen Yu was very relieved.
Chen Yu also took some time to visit the Blue Star United Government building and ordered the citizens of the New Lun branch base to renovate the dilapidated building. As the commander-in-chief of the United Government's cold relief efforts, this was also to maintain his legitimacy.
The investigation he had the militiamen conduct into the employees of the XX Military Industry Group has also yielded results. On the day he and Lin Lele were test-flying an F-35B at their facility, several staff members present did not survive the extreme cold disaster. In fact, they did not even survive the initial stages of the disaster.
This made Chen Yu breathe a heavy sigh of relief.
However, upon reflection, he realized that he had been far too cautious.
With his current strength, even if the other-dimensional space is exposed, there's nothing to be afraid of. Who would dare to target him now?
Shaking his head, Chen Yu put the matter aside.
The "cold-weather relief airship" formation is about to set sail again.
Yesterday, both Boston and Washington reported good news: the "cold relief" activities in both cities have been carried out successfully, and now it's his turn to take the stage.
Since the two cities were in opposite directions, he directly divided the three airships into two groups.
Lin Lele led one airship to Boston, while he led two airships to Washington.
Although Lin Lele isn't very reliable, with Liu Menghan by her side, there shouldn't be any problems. Although Chen Yu thinks Liu Menghan is inherently rebellious, she still has abilities.
Moreover, she previously studied at Haha University in Boston and is quite familiar with the local situation, so sending her this time is a good use of her talents.
The reason Chen Yu brought two airships while Lin Lele and the others only brought one was not because he was afraid of dying.
The main reason is that Washington, D.C., which he is going to, is the capital of Merica, where various forces are deeply entrenched. If problems arise, it will naturally be more difficult to deal with than in Boston.
However, although their three airships have been separated, the Tianyu base has now spread throughout the entire Mereka region, and in case of emergencies, it can send reinforcements from other cities at any time.
Washington, the political center of Merica, is home to many important government agencies and international organizations.
Although the extreme cold disaster has struck for nearly two years, its influence should not be underestimated. This area is home to a large number of politicians, top scientists, super-rich individuals, and even military personnel.
Like Kyoto, the capital of Great Xia, the "Joint Task Force of the Capital Region" here did not disappear before the natural disaster, but was left behind to protect the political heart of the country. After all, as the capital, it has too many secrets.
The Joint Task Force for the Capital Region is a military unit consisting of approximately 10,000 personnel dedicated to protecting the security of Washington, D.C., the capital of the United States.
This unit is responsible not only for protecting government buildings, important facilities, and critical infrastructure in Washington, D.C., but also for responding to various potential threats, including terrorist attacks and natural disasters. They undergo rigorous training and are equipped with advanced weaponry to ensure a rapid and effective response in emergency situations.
Chen Yu had originally prepared for a tough battle. He had already mobilized the "Condor Fighting Group" soldiers of the International Militia Corps for Cold Relief and Disaster Relief at various sub-bases in Merica, planning to launch a strong attack on Washington City.
However, to his utter surprise, the commander of that task force surrendered with his men, along with a group of officials and wealthy individuals from Wharton City.
This left Chen Yu speechless; the warriors of Merika were just too unreliable.
However, since the other party has already surrendered, that is naturally the best outcome. Not only will he not have to go through any more trouble, but he will also save time. Moreover, peacefully subduing the other party will increase the strength of Tianyu Base. By incorporating this special task force into the "International Militia Legion for Cold Relief and Disaster Relief," the strength of the legion will be greatly enhanced. This is a good thing.
At Chen Yu's signal, the two "cold-weather relief airships" landed on the open ground in front of the Black Palace in Washington City.
The first thing he did upon arriving in Washington was to accept the surrender of the "Capital Region Joint Task Force." He did not want the "Condor Group" to handle this level of surrender.
Moreover, it seems that the other party has some grudge against the leader of the "Condor Group," namely Captain Paul, the captain of the USS Fortuna aircraft carrier.
Therefore, in order to avoid unnecessary conflict and misunderstanding, Chen Yu decided to handle the matter personally.
Under the protection of a group of militia soldiers and accompanied by Paul, the commander of the "Condor Squad," Chen Yu stepped steadily into the Black Palace.
Inside the Black Palace, the atmosphere was somewhat solemn, yet also carried a hint of relief.
Major General Jones, the commander of the surrendered task force, a middle-aged white man, was already waiting in the Black House presidential office. His face was filled with helplessness and resentment, but even more so with uncertainty about the future.
“Jones, take it easy. Times have changed. The world has undergone tremendous changes. Merica is dead. We must accept this fact,” an elderly man with white hair said calmly.
“But, Mr. Vice President, the faith we once swore to protect with our lives is now collapsing before our eyes, just like this dilapidated Black House.” Major General Jones’s voice was low and heavy, his eyes filled with confusion and pain.
“I understand how you feel, Jones.” Vice President Jack of Merica nodded slowly, his eyes revealing a profound and complex emotion. “But we must look forward and not let our past beliefs bind our future. We must admit that we can no longer control the situation on Earth, we have lost control of Merica itself, and we are even struggling to take care of our capital, Wharton.”
