Old Bush Eleven, fuming, was in a foul mood.
Since his inauguration, he had never lost to the Soviet Bear in their confrontations.
But now, he had suffered all the losses at once!
Taking a deep breath, his eyes turned icy cold as he addressed the assembled crowd: "I need you to come up with a solution immediately."
"Today's meeting must discuss three action plans."
"Our deployment has been disrupted by Konev, and the initiative now lies with the Soviet Bear Alliance!"
Just as Old Bush Eleven was in a fit of rage, the White House Secretary of State, Kurt, twitched his lips.
He did have a plan, but in the current situation, anyone who spoke would be subject to scolding.
"Kurt. You guys investigated the upper echelon of the Soviet Bear Alliance, didn't you? What's the deal with this Konev guy?"
"You better tell me everything you know."
"Now, right now!"
The moment Old Bush Eleven spoke, the tense gazes of everyone in the room locked onto Kurt.
Instantly, the immense pressure sent Kurt's heart racing.
"Mr. President, I do have information on Konev, but it's already been handed over to the CIA for analysis, and they have conducted a full intelligence assessment."
Kurt didn't dare voice his own thoughts first, instead choosing to have the CIA take the first wave of fire.
As expected, CIA Director Wilson was immediately bombarded with questions from Old Bush Eleven:
"Why hasn't your analysis been reported?"
"Do you think Konev is unimportant?"
"Why did your analysis of Gorbachev miss Konev?"
"How much do you actually know about Konev?"
"How much preparation has Konev done? What other tricks does he have up his sleeve?"
"...?"
The name Konev was being uttered by Old Bush Eleven with increasing ease, the Soviet name echoing repeatedly.
Wilson was so nervous his limbs went numb, his eyelids started twitching, and he stammered in response:
"Initially, we also conducted an independent investigation into Konev, but you said he was a useless, good-for-nothing slacker, so we assigned all the investigators to others."
"The Intelligence Bureau took over the subsequent investigation of Konev."
Wilson was quick on the uptake, smoothly shifting the blame in two sentences.
But just as everyone was waiting to see the Eagle Lion Intelligence Bureau ridiculed, Secretary of State Kurt coughed and said, "Actually, Konev is just putting on a show."
"To solve the current Soviet Bear problem, it's relatively easy to get rid of Konev."
Get rid of Konev!
This was the shared vision of almost all the high-ranking officials present.
Swish, everyone's heads turned towards Kurt simultaneously.
Everyone wanted to know if Kurt had a real solution or was just trying to pass the buck.
"Kurt, if you can't come up with a useful solution, you can call in the Deputy Secretary of State."
Kurt's heart skipped a beat, but his expression remained calm, for he had faith in his plan.
"Mr. President, the solution I'm going to propose is our forte."
"According to the intelligence I have, Konev's Foreign Minister, Kadro, released a new statement from the Soviet Bear Alliance this morning.
But based on our investigations, the leaders of those five member states are very angry."
"This kind of statement from the Soviet Bear Alliance basically ignores those leaders of the member states."
"Not only did it directly deny the resolutions that had already been passed, but it also stripped the member states of their own administrative powers."
"According to the Soviet Bear Alliance's statement today, in the future, member states of the Soviet Bear Alliance will only exist at a level below the national level."
"They won't have their own national laws, they won't have their own autonomous control, and they won't even be able to decide on the exploitation and utilization of resources within their member states."
"The leaders of the five countries that have expressed a definite intention to become independent, as well as the leaders of Gru, have all protested."
"In my opinion, this is an opportunity."
After Kurt said this, some of the quick-witted officials had already realized the breakthrough.
President Old Bush Eleven followed his line of thought and said, "Are you saying that many leaders of the member states of the Soviet Bear Alliance can't accept having the power they already have taken back by the Soviet Bear Alliance?"
"Will their attitude towards Konev's presidency change as a result?"
Kurt nodded affirmatively, "You are absolutely right. Although the people of the Soviet Bear Alliance are happy to see this situation, the leaders of the Soviet Bear Alliance are not going to be happy."
"Although most of our spies and whispers have been caught, we can send in more senior experts, let them sow discord between the people and the leaders, and make them fight among themselves."
"Konev has just come to power, everyone knows he is a tough, decisive president, but judging from the current situation, they will crack down on those excited citizens for their own interests and power."
"As long as the first official confrontation occurs, the conflict between the citizens and the leadership of these member states will grow."
"They will fight among themselves, no matter how ruthless Konev's methods are, he can't attack ordinary people of the Soviet Bear Alliance, unless he's forced to."
After Kurt finished speaking, everyone around him nodded thoughtfully.
The Soviet Bear Alliance was too powerful, vast and rich in resources, with a strong military force.
The Eagle Lion and the North Alliance had always focused on soft subversion, like color revolutions, and achieved incredible results.
Just then, the CIA Director, who had been scolded earlier, quickly chimed in, trying to make amends, "Mr. President, I think what Kurt said is absolutely correct."
"We at the CIA have ample experience with this type of covert operation, targeting internal divisions. We can do it!"
Old Bush Eleven looked at him with a suspicious expression and said, "Tell me more."
CIA Director Kurt saw his opportunity and immediately said, "The CIA is very experienced with this kind of action, splitting them from within."
"If we let the CIA act, we will find the Soviet Bear Alliance's criminal organizations, find their dissidents and join forces with them. They know their own people's weaknesses best."
"Then we will provide them with ample funds, supplies, and even weapons support. We can let the Soviet Bear Alliance's internal news media and our Western media collaborate to release information, using advanced rhetoric to guide public opinion."
"We are also adept at organizing demonstrations and strikes, and creating destruction and bodily harm during these social movements, exacerbating the conflict between ordinary citizens and the government."
"We also have the best assassins in the world. Even if we can't kill Konev, we can kill the high-ranking officials who support him, forcing the remaining supporters to shut up."
"Since they want to take back all the power, what the CIA is best at is using the slogan of freedom to twist and demonize their actions, making them tear themselves apart!"
The words hung in the air, leaving the entire office in dead silence.
A few seconds later.
A wave of applause erupted, everyone rose to their feet and clapped.
Eagle Lion President Old Bush Eleven, his eyes gleaming with approval, shouted in agreement, "That's it! The Soviet Bear Alliance is doomed!"
