Chapter 1577: Loyal Ministers Meet in Turbulence (Second Update, Please Subscribe)
When superheroes save the world, the world is shocked.

In Paris, France, when the TV station was broadcasting this extremely exciting battle scene, the host couldn't help but complain about the French army.

“We know that among the French tourists who were visiting near the palace at the time were several French soldiers.

What are they doing?

They were just like the civilians around them. They fled in panic. They had no sense of responsibility as soldiers at all.”

Faced with the insults from the public opinion, the French military was naturally extremely angry, and some French soldiers even said a little excitedly.

"Why blame them? All they had were cameras. Were they going to use cameras to fight the terrorists' machine guns and grenades?"

In response to the soldiers' explanations, the French TV host spoke bluntly.

"Yes, so you chose to just raise your hands like you did in 1940."

The damage value is not great, but it is extremely insulting.

Faced with such humiliation, the French finally chose to remain silent. Of course, while they were silent, they did not forget to drag someone down with them.

"The British did not react at all at the time. Even after the terrorist attack was over, only a few police officers and two soldiers arrived at the scene."

Well, if we are going to embarrass ourselves, let’s embarrass ourselves together.

Of course, despite what they said, the French soldiers still admired their colleague very much. After all, the emotions between soldiers are simple.

On the other side of the ocean, in the United States, the American news media was excited about the terrorist attack in the UK. After all, the British had recently accused the United States of discriminating against black people.

And now?

After this terrorist attack, American public opinion focused more on the identity of the terrorists - Africans.

Of course, while they are stirring up such confrontations at home, they have not forgotten to pay attention to the superheroes who turned the tide during terrorist attacks.

"When people were fleeing in panic, only one person rushed forward without hesitation.

Even though he was unarmed and had nothing to do with those people, he still rushed towards the terrorists more than ever before..."

On TV, in the host's emotional words, people saw how the hero defeated the terrorists under a hail of bullets and protected hundreds of people.

Laymen watch for excitement, while experts watch for the secrets. While the TV stations in Britain and Europe and America kept broadcasting this news, people prayed for this superhero and marveled at his courage.
There were also many military experts there discussing the combat qualities demonstrated by the superhero in the battle.

Fighting one against six is ​​not unprecedented in history. However, from seizing weapons with bare hands to calmly killing terrorists one by one, his tactical actions and shooting skills have shown the quality of a soldier that is amazing to the world.

"Now we can basically determine why they have never suffered a military defeat in the past 20 years."

"This is the first time we've been able to get a direct peek at what these soldiers are like in combat,"

"They are absolutely the best group of soldiers."

Unlike ordinary people who marvel at the heroic performance of superheroes, military experts discuss more military topics.

The terrorist attack in London not only made people see the harm of terrorist attacks, but also made people see an outstanding soldier and the extremely excellent army behind him.

Even the tactical moves used by Lin Zhipeng in combat have been sought after by many military experts and have been included in textbooks.

All we can say is that people focus on different things.

In the first two days, news media and the general public around the world were paying attention to the news while also praying for superheroes.

When they learned that the superhero had passed the critical period and had awakened, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

“God always favors the righteous.”

After learning that Lin Zhipeng had woken up, the palace could not help but pray for him and also sought the cabinet's opinion:

"Should we award him a medal for his bravery?"

The cabinet naturally agreed to this. After all, Lin Zhipeng did save many British people, and the amazing courage he showed in fighting terrorists was also admirable.

However, when the Queen said that she would award Lin Zhipeng the Victoria Cross, there was still some debate. After all, this is their highest medal of honor.

Although there were some disputes, in the end, Prime Minister Macmillan made a decision:
"We should award him the Doria Cross for his courage, which, as we all know, he displayed in this incident was extremely courageous. And this also meets the criteria for awarding this medal - after all, this medal is only awarded to those who "show outstanding courage in the face of the enemy!""

In Downing Street, Macmillan said to the Foreign Secretary and others:
"Besides that, I think awarding him this medal will be beneficial to the friendship between us and SEA.

Over the past 20 years, our relationship with them has become increasingly close. Many times, SEA appears as the guarantor of the interests of the Commonwealth. Whether in Southeast Asia or Africa, they play this role, and the responsibilities they bear are becoming increasingly important. "

When the Prime Minister finished speaking, Foreign Secretary Rab Butler also agreed:
"Yes, Mr. Prime Minister, although SEA has always been called the right hand of the free world, we must see that most of the time it is the right hand of the Commonwealth."

Rab Butler, as Foreign Secretary, was also an imperialist, or the last imperialist.

Because of this, he, like many people in the Conservative Party, has never been willing to see Britain go to the end of the road, and is still trying his best to save everything, or they have not resigned themselves to their fate. Although they admit that Britain is in decline, they have not completely knelt down, and are still doing their best to maintain the Commonwealth.

"We would have suffered far more without their presence in these past days. They were there to help and hold the Commonwealth together at a time when we were forced to strategically retract.

In fact, they are safeguarding the interests of the United Kingdom. Of course, we cannot deny that they are also fighting for their own interests in this process. When we withdrew, they filled our space, gained extremely rich returns, and expanded their own interests.

But without them, we would lose not only our colonies but also our global influence.”

"Yes, to a certain extent, in the Commonwealth. Britain is the boss of the Commonwealth, and the SEA is the defender of the Commonwealth's interests."

McMillan took a drag on his cigarette as he said this.

What is the Commonwealth's interests defender?

They are clearly the Commonwealth's thugs.

The Commonwealth needs such a helper.

What made London very happy was that this helper did not have too much ambition. At least they had never thought of challenging Britain.

Challenge Britain Over the past few years, they have been doing everything they can to safeguard Britain's interests.

Especially when there was a conflict of interests between Britain and the United States, they basically stood on the side of Britain, although they also received extremely generous rewards from Britain in the process.

However, as the leader, if you want your younger brothers to contribute, you always need to give them some benefits. As the hegemon for so many years, the British are very clear about this, especially people like Macmillan. As the last imperialists, they know very well that only interests between countries are eternal, and friendship is based on interests.

"I believe that in the future, we will need to cooperate more with them, not just in Africa. This involves world leadership."

Macmillan took a drag on his cigarette when he mentioned world leadership. He said:
"The French and the Germans came together to create the European Community, and they created it not just for economics. It was more to challenge the United States' control over Western Europe, but that was just the beginning."

"Yes, Mr. Prime Minister. The European Community is just the beginning. In the future, they will certainly seek to further expand their influence on the world. In the name of the European Community, they will inevitably challenge the United States' leadership of the Western world in this process. And we..."

Rab Butler said, looking at the Prime Minister.

"As another global organization whose economic, military and political influence is far less than that of the European Community, what role should the Commonwealth of Nations play in this process?"

"It's not about what role we can play, but how can we regain the glory of the British Empire in the future."

When McMillan mentioned yesterday, there was a hint of memories of the past in his eyes.

The British have their own self-conceit and pride. Just like when faced with Hitler's ultimatum, they chose to fight to the end without hesitation, even at the cost of sacrificing the British Empire.

As some have said, we sacrificed the British Empire in order to preserve it.

In fact, what they were upholding was the glory of the empire.

It was also thanks to their efforts that the British Empire is now withdrawing from the world stage in a rather decent manner.

But for these last wave of people who grew up in the imperial era and have an empire in their hearts, how could they willingly withdraw from the stage?

It is precisely because of this unwillingness that they choose to cooperate with SES. Although their interests are different, they still join forces and do everything possible to safeguard their own interests.

And now, they seem to see a glimmer of hope, a chance to regain glory in the future.

"One European Community cannot challenge Washington's hegemony over the world. But if we add the Commonwealth,

A smile appeared on Macmillan's face. He pointed out the window with his cigarette-holding finger and said:

"We still have a great chance of forcing Washington to share the world with us."

Share the world!

Compared to many politicians, these veteran politicians in London are very realistic. They know very well what goals they should set. They have never tried to challenge or destroy the hegemony of the United States.

Compared to destroying, they prefer to share. After all, the strength of the Commonwealth lies here.

“So, this African conference…”

He said, looking at Foreign Secretary Macmillan in front of him.

"It is still very important. After all, Africa was the last colony of the British Empire after we lost India. Maybe the colonial era is gone now, but we must strengthen our ties with Africa in another way."

"Yes, Mr. Prime Minister, this is also the fundamental reason why we established the East African Federation. Of course..."

Looking at the Prime Minister, Rab Butler said:

"That's why we want to bring SEA into Africa. They need to expand their sphere of influence, and we need them to maintain Britain's interests in Africa!"
