Bronze door through time and space

Chapter 880 Declaration of Independence
"The archipelago will become an independent, autonomous, equal, and free nation. External forces have deprived us of our sovereignty and brought oppression, but our desire for freedom has never been extinguished, and we are willing to fight for it!"

"We call on the world to respect our choice, and all the people of the islands will unite to fight for independence and prosperity!"

Captain Red Ribbon has the typical appearance of a white American, at least conforming to American aesthetics: tall, muscular, with short blond hair, a square face and a prominent chin, and red eyebands and an arrogant smile that add to his unique personal charm. When he made his declaration of independence to the world on television, he was not met with curses, but with applause from all over the world. After all, it was just too damn interesting.

Even the young people of Bald Eagle cheered for him because they thought it was incredibly cool. Some idiots even brought their own food to the archipelago, but who knows what they were doing there?

As for other people or forces, apart from the bald eagle who looked like the sky had fallen, the rest of them were already being polite by not laughing out loud on the spot. Even so, very few of them were polite. Nowadays, it has become a consensus that people who see the bald eagle will laugh before they even speak, because they simply can't hold it in.

The bald eagle is now in a real mess because the other side is too damn politically correct. To attack them is to slap themselves in the face, because they themselves are always shouting about freedom and then stirring up separatism and coups around the world. It's just that this time the knife is falling on their own heads.

Moreover, if it were just an archipelago, it wouldn't matter. No matter how much noise they make, it's just a joke. Not only would the United States not take it seriously, but other countries wouldn't either. The key issue is Pearl Harbor.

Pearl Harbor is not only the headquarters of the Pacific Fleet of the United States, but also the largest forward base of the United States in the Pacific region. It has long been responsible for providing supplies to surface ships and attack submarines, and is the region with the most concentrated submarine deployment in the Pacific.

Through continuous expansion, it has now become an important naval base with complete facilities and advanced equipment. It has docks, supply centers, ammunition depots, fuel depots, large dry docks, and repair shops that can repair various ship hulls and their weapons.

The port currently has more than 40 ships and more than 20 nuclear-powered submarines as its home port. It also has a large number of naval aviation units, marine corps units and logistics support units, as well as a highly professional naval academy and training center.

Because of the bio-infected templates, these nearly intact items fell into the hands of the Red Ribbon Army, making this rebel group one of the world's leading military forces. Most small countries are not as powerful as them, which makes the United States dare not easily use force.

Moreover, Pearl Harbor was too close to the mainland and had Mushroom-shaped submarines. If a real war broke out, it would be a matter of mutual destruction in no time.

Even more critically, Pearl Harbor, as a crucial part of the homeland defense perimeter, possesses a wealth of military secrets. The mere thought of such a leak sends chills down the spine of the bald eagle, as if a noose were tightening around its neck.

In fact, a large number of forces have already secretly contacted the Red Ribbon Army, offering starting prices of one billion, or even no upper limit.

Today, the Red Ribbon Army possesses the most advanced weaponry, costly electronic systems, global deployment plans for the next few decades, and the Mushroom Key—each with enormous implications. These are no longer just financial matters, but rather issues of global shifts and the key to whether the Bald Eagle can maintain its hegemonic status.

Under this pressure, the bald eagle had to adopt a more subtle approach, first sending a sufficiently powerful group to communicate, and then preparing 108 assassination methods.

If it weren't so obvious, the White House would have loved to send the other party a convertible.

The problem is that the other side is just crazy, not stupid, and they're all moldy, so how could they not know what methods the other side is using? What's more, the Red Ribbon Army has a mastermind behind them.

Zha Kang lit a cigarette, showing no fear in front of the unpredictable Captain Red Ribbon, and offered suggestions on how to ensure that having a son would prevent dermatitis.

The previous occupation of Pearl Harbor, the declaration of island independence, and the international declarations were all ideas he gave to the Red Ribbon Leader. Otherwise, this leader would have simply stormed into the Bald Eagle's homeland to burn, kill, and loot, only to be imprisoned like a chicken by Superman, instead of being as free as he is now. Because the slogans were correct, and the islands didn't actually belong to the Bald Eagle, Superman came several times, hesitated for a long time, and didn't intervene.

Superman sees himself as a savior of suffering, not a ruler who interferes with political power, much less a god who decides the fate of mankind.

If the Red Ribbon Army had just started their rebellion, whether it was occupying the fleet or Pearl Harbor, Superman would have intervened to stop them, and things wouldn't have turned out the way they are now.

However, the mold had caused Superman a lot of trouble before, and by the time Superman had freed up his hands, the situation was already beyond repair.

The Red Ribbon Army not only occupied the archipelago but also unified public opinion. Even though there were many problems and it was related to that strange virus, the facts are the facts and cannot be denied.

Moreover, the countries reacted quickly, with some expressing concern and others offering support. The situation is relatively stable both internally and externally, meaning that the archipelago can now be considered an independent force.

In this situation, if Superman intervenes, the resulting consequences will be even more severe than the islands' independence; he will transform from Superman into a hegemon and become the world's enemy.

So even though the bald eagle was in such a hurry, the internal proposal to let Superman solve the problem still did not pass.

Superman considers himself an American, so we can't let him have any thoughts of interfering in politics.

Ordinary people only have ideas, but superheroes have the real ability to turn those ideas into reality.

Moreover, given Superman's high moral standards, every single one of them, even if they weren't each given two boxes of bullets and executed, would be destined to spend their lives in prison. Therefore, Superman absolutely cannot be allowed to get involved in this matter.

In fact, not only the bald eagle, but no one in the world is unafraid of Superman crossing the line. Therefore, such a big matter was suppressed and Superman was resolutely not given a chance to get involved.

All of this was within Kang's expectations, and Lady Shangdu also played a part in it.

Lady Bai Zhongzhuo of Shangdu was terribly screwed over by this guy. A group of burly drivers took turns driving her day and night, with the accelerator almost touching the gas tank. They would rush towards any speed bump they encountered, just for the thrill. The engine was constantly revving, and the problem of dripping water and leaking oil hadn't been resolved when she was dragged off to have her fortune told. She was truly sold out again and again.

It was precisely because of Kang Youwei's despicable and outrageous idea, coupled with Lady Shangdu's quick divination, that the Red Ribbon Captain's operation went incredibly smoothly, as if divinely aided.

As for why Kang betrayed him, it was naturally because there were benefits, and big benefits at that; otherwise, wouldn't his teammates have been betrayed for nothing?

As Zha Kang's fame grows, it becomes increasingly difficult to find teammates, and there are no ones left to sell.
