Chapter 1171: Chapter 575: Mexico Cannot Lose California, Just as the West Cannot Lose… God?!
He knew the seriousness of the situation—if he were caught by the so-called rebel army, what good would come of it?
Norman Schwartzkopf’s brows furrowed into a character like ‘川.’
Ring-ring—
The sudden, urgent telephone ring snapped him out of his thoughts, startling him so much that his body shook, and he angrily slammed the table and snatched up the phone, “F***! Give me good news, or I’ll shove the ashtray down your ashtray!”
The person on the other end was petrified.
His voice quivered…
“Sir… sir, Mexico… Mexico has launched an unannounced war; two armies from the Northern War Zone have charged into the California region!”
“What!!!!!!”
Meanwhile, at the headquarters of Northrop Grumman Corporation in Bethesda, Virginia.
In the office of CEO Anselmo Truman.
A crowd sat, neither old nor young.
If one often watched TV news, many familiar faces would be recognizable.
Among them were mostly big business owners from Virginia and a few mainstays from famous social groups. They sat here chatting with each other, the atmosphere pleasant, until after Anselmo Truman hung up the phone.
A young man couldn’t help but speak, “Uncle, how is it? Has that greedy German agreed?”
Anselmo Truman raised an eyebrow, “Roberts, I’ve said many times, be civilized! Be cultured! Be refined! We are the Truman family; even if they are enemies, we should address them with respect.”
The young man opened his mouth, nodded dejectedly.
“Although Norman Schwartzkopf verbally refused, I can sense his heart stirring. He needs the support of big business owners; he can’t do without us. Even in the United States, where there are regulations, we can find loopholes, and these loopholes are prepared for giant corporations and families like ours.”
Upon hearing his words, everyone in the office cheered enthusiastically.
The young Truman family member grinned, “So can’t we hire people right now? At that time, we just need to find a reason and excuse to swallow North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, West Virginia, Maryland, and the District of Columbia, then our Truman family would be…”
“Shut up!”
Anselmo Truman shouted, and the other party promptly shut his mouth, but his eyes gleamed with excitement!
American Royal Family?!!
Of course, they don’t want to be emperors; they want to be the shadow behind America.
Anselmo Truman smiled at the others in the office, and the crowd responded eagerly, like fawning dogs.
Since Carter announced the start of the civil war, a bunch of people in Virginia had been preparing to elect a leader, and naturally, with the Northrop Grumman Company CEO backed by big companies and a prestigious family, he attracted everyone’s attention.
At this moment, they…
Together are a lump of shit, scattered are a light shower.
Don’t underestimate the power of capital, you damn idiots!!!!
“Roberts, open the wine from my cabinet; today I won’t let these gentlemen leave sober,” Anselmo Truman waved his hand, speaking with some flair.
His nephew responded happily.
He had just taken two steps when he heard a frantic knocking at the door, and a guest behind him got up to open it, only to find Anselmo Truman’s secretary rushing in with wide eyes. Ignoring his footing, he stumbled and almost fell.
“The Northern Mexico War Zone suddenly launched surprise attacks on the California region this afternoon from Mexicali and places like Tijuana and Juarez, conquered El Centro in 16 minutes, Bovar in 18 minutes, and occupied Chula Vista in Southern San Diego in 42 minutes, only 12 kilometers away from San Diego.”
“California is in danger!!!”
When the secretary shouted, it was almost heartbreaking. One could even see his tonsils in his throat…
Quiet!
Quiet as a pile of crap!
Everyone couldn’t believe their ears.
Mexico…
Launched an unannounced war and directly intervened?
Bam—
With a violent slam, everyone turned to see Anselmo Truman hurl the ashtray heavily to the ground, his face swiftly reddening, then turning purple, and his eyes rapidly filling with blood.
“Poof…” suddenly.
A mouthful of blood spurted out directly.
His nephew Roberts exclaimed.
The entire office descended into chaos.
…
Not only Virginia?
All the states in the United States that hadn’t declared independence panicked!
Mexico had intervened…
This was equivalent to a giant beast suddenly intruding on this cake, and you couldn’t just call it Yamade.
Civil war, what does civil war mean?
It means that we’re fighting internally; how does Mexico have a role here?
June 17, 1993.
Precisely three hours after the Northern War Zone’s surprise attacks on California.
Mexico’s foreign department issued the “Manifesto to the Americas: The Historical Rectification of California Sovereignty”!
Since the era of Cortes, this land facing the Pacific Ocean has flowed with the civilizational blood of the Nahuatl.
When Spanish colonizers established the San Diego Mission Station in 1769, the Thirteen States of North America were still in infancy. After Mexico’s independence in 1821, it inherited, under international law, vast territories including Upper California Province, and its sovereignty documents were recognized by many countries worldwide, bearing complete legal validity.
The border conflicts intentionally provoked in 1846 were, in fact, well-orchestrated territorial theft by expansionists. The U.S. Military burned civilian homes during the Monterrey Campaign, slaughtered civilians in Matamoros, trampling international norms with the logic of conquerors.
The 1848 Guadalupe Hidalgo Treaty was coerced under the occupation of the capital by armed forces—Mexico was forced to cede 55% of its territory, and the legitimacy of such a treaty has been challenged internationally in the legal community to this day.
