Twenty Seven Years Chapter 367

Chapter 367 Military Power

Breathing out lightly, Verac, who stared at Diaz's tombstone for a long time, got up and came to the place where Morais, Keating, and Rose stood.

In front of them was Dawn's tombstone.

Dawn did not join the Equality Association, but what he did helped the Equality Association too much, so Boyne and Morais deliberately set up a tombstone here, so that he will always be remembered by his comrades.

"His wife, Edith, often brings her children to visit him," Morais said.

"Hmm." Verak looked at the tombstone without saying a word.

"Don't worry Dawn, I will ensure the safety of Ms. Edith and the child." Rose's voice was low.

The crisp chirping of birds in the cemetery can be heard endlessly, and the grass and trees are more emerald green under the right sunlight. Surrounded by these vitality, the four silently missed their old friends.

"...Let's go." Verac put a bouquet of flowers in his hand in front of the tombstone, wiped off a fallen leaf on it with his hand, and then didn't say anything more, and visited Francis one after another with Morais and Rose , Chris, Colin, and finally left the cemetery straight away.

After getting in the car, Ross drove everyone to the terminus.

"Have you all made the plan clearly?" On the way back, the atmosphere was a little dull, and Morais broke the silence and asked a few people what they had gained last night.

"Yes, the main thing is to cooperate with Arthur in the name of an independent mixed division, and after jointly eradicating Maguire, and then play with us to gain control of the Guard Corps." Verac said, "A little more detail, For example, how to act and how to get rid of Maguire, we have some preliminary ideas, and the final decision still needs to be discussed on our side, and Adel and Arthur, who represent the independent mixing division, exchange opinions."

"Okay." Morais glanced at his watch, "Byne must have had breakfast by this point, so we can talk about it when we get back."

An hour and a half later, the car drove back to the main station of the Equality Society in the North District.

"Comrade Morais, Comrade Keating, Comrade Verac, Comrade Ross." A young comrade walked up after the car parked, "President Boyne asked me to inform you, and go directly to his car when you come back." Meet at the office."

"Okay, got it." Morais led the other three to Boyne's office without stopping.

"Good morning, President." After knocking on the door, after obtaining Boyin's permission, Veraker walked in first, and greeted Boyin with a relaxed expression.

Bo Yin was taking medicine, and he couldn't help smiling when he saw the four people coming in: "It's already morning."

"We went to the cemetery to visit the comrades who died." Morais called Keating and Rose to come in and sit down. "On the way back, we also chatted about the Guard Corps."

"I guess this matter must have progressed." Boyin took the last few pills and put the medicine box back in the drawer.

"Why so sure?" Verak asked curiously.

"If there is no progress, will you come back?" Boyin closed the drawer and crossed his hands, "Tell me."

Verac looked at Keating, but Keating just raised his chin at him: "Then let me tell the story. We discussed with Joseph and Adel last night, and decided that Adel will represent the independent editor to find Arthur talks about cooperation. At the same time, the independent editors and our side are acting, creating the illusion that Joseph and the others are going to eradicate equality..."

"The contact between the independent mixed division and the guard corps can minimize the risk, and the success rate of cooperation will be the highest." Boyin thought about it, "We have thought about this method before, but because of this, all the risks will be transferred to Joseph personally has yet to find a suitable opportunity to bring it up."

"Yesterday I was just using this as an analogy to open up a new way of thinking. Unexpectedly, after listening to Joseph, he resisted all opinions and asked for an independent editor to come forward." Verac knew Boyin's concerns, so he agreed Fortunately, Joseph is not such a narrow-minded person, "In short, the biggest problem has been solved."

"If you can have a stable contact with Arthur, everything else is easy to talk about. We have already arranged for the acting. We planned to let Joseph perform well, which will not only alleviate Francois' suspicion, but also improve his status. , so that Francois is more likely to give him the command of the Guard Corps." Boyne has already done a lot of preparations.

"That's just right. We can save a lot of time. Maybe the plan can start today." Verak was overjoyed.

Morais was the person in charge of planning the acting. With his arms folded, he said after listening to the conversation between the two: "If you really want to do it, you can do it today."

"After acting, let Francois see that Joseph has the possibility of completely destroying the Equality Society. Even if he is still worried, he will temporarily hand over the Guard Corps to Joseph. After all, compared to the Equality Society, the threat that Joseph may exist is too much. It's not enough. The independent mixed editor and Arthur have reached a cooperation. After helping Arthur to the position, everyone is a grasshopper on a rope. When the time comes, he promises that the credit for eradicating the Equality Society will be half of Arthur's, and he will also strongly support it. Both François and Arthur are willing to let go, even though it is only temporary, but it is enough for us to use it to take down Lezein without bloodshed." Verac clenched his fists and couldn't wait to see that day come.

"Look, what did I say, Verak and Keating can help us 100% once they come back." Boin took the opportunity to praise Verak and Keating for breaking the deadlock.

"To be honest, we didn't do anything. You have already done the preparations for acting. The independent editor was also proposed by Joseph himself. We just walked around to help everyone reorganize the status quo." Verak said. Unexpectedly, he waved his hand modestly.

"Okay, stop boasting, don't refuse, and contact Joseph to finalize the acting." It's better sooner rather than later to take control of the guard regiment. Morais interrupted the two with a smile, urging Boyne to give Joseph Make a phone call.

Verak learned about the preparations for acting before Boyne called: "How are we going to act here?"

"It's simple, the independent editors are our people now, and it's no big deal if they arrest the comrades." Our own people and their own people pretended to do it, and Morais was not worried, "We prepared several plays a week ago The site used, there are supporting comrades and enough documents and materials to be fake, and when they are ready, they can start a round of gun battles to make the battle bigger, and then the site will be taken care of."

"Isn't it too dangerous to take the comrades there?" Keating asked.

"It's not dangerous. The people Joseph and the others arrested will just let the comrades stay in the camp in the name of their investigation and interrogation. Moreover, if they don't arrest some people, the action will be more or less painless, and it will be difficult to impress Francois. Morais explained the situation to Keating, "In addition, the comrades we were arrested in the past were mainly with the independent mixed editor, and they are all fine now."

"Ahem..." Boyin drank his saliva, nodded and said, "The independent mixed division camp is probably the safest place right now."

Ross, who has been staying in the army recently, agrees: "No one would have imagined that the independent mixed division responsible for clearing us on the surface is full of our people."

Suddenly, the phone rang.

Verak and the others looked at Boyne who picked up the phone.

"They are all in my office. I just finalized the co-acting, and I was about to call you, and you called me first." Boyin was talking to the person on the other end of the phone, and nodded slightly at several people.

Hearing Boyin's words, everyone present knew that he was talking to Joseph, the commander of the independent mixed division.

"Yes, just use the stations that were prepared before. When the time comes, you will send people over. After we have a short exchange of fire, you will take them away."

"Take them all away, let Francois see that you have the hope of completely eradicating the Equality Society, and we can prepare a few more if necessary."

"Of course, the sooner this matter is done, the better. If there are no problems on your side, act today. Then as soon as Adel goes to see Arthur, we will advance simultaneously on both sides."

"The specific action will be carried out between Morais and you. Okay, let's do this first."

"Patter." The phone was hung up.

Byne looked at everyone: "Joseph has finished understanding the situation with Adel, and he has no objections. The acting can start this afternoon. Later, Morais, you will be responsible for the corresponding scheduling work."

"Understood." Morais agreed.

"Is Adel also going to see Arthur in the afternoon?" Verak heard Adel's arrangement.

"Yes. I haven't had time to ask you about this just now. Have you figured out how to join forces with Arthur to get rid of Maguire?" Boyne asked.

"It's also very simple. We will directly assassinate him equally. But this is just borrowing our name, we don't have to actually send people." Verak said in detail, "Now Joseph and Arthur all have conflicts of interest with Maguire. No matter how Maguire died, Francois will inevitably doubt them, so if we kill Maguire, both parties must be involved so that they can be tied together, and they can prove to each other to separate the relationship. "

"Specifically?"

"Maguire asked Arthur to arrange for people from the Guard Corps to kill, and the independent mixed division was responsible for arresting the assassin and helping Arthur prove that the assassin was equal and had nothing to do with them."

After listening, Boyin frowned slightly: "This can only ensure that Francois can't find the handle on Joseph and Arthur, but it doesn't necessarily make Francois not suspicious. Since it is equal, it is best to Good to have a suitable motive."

"I was thinking that it would be too difficult for someone as suspicious as Francois not to be suspicious, as long as there is no direct evidence for him to prove that this matter has something to do with Joseph and Arthur." Verac said.

"Let's be more on the safe side." Boin thought for a moment, and proposed his own method, "Let Adel tell Arthur that the independent editor has the information on the follow-up actions of the Equality Association, and that the Equality Association will be on a certain day." Going to the area where the Guard Corps is located to rescue the people sent by the Parliament, as long as the assassination of Maguire is set on the same day, Francois' suspicion can be more effectively alleviated.”

"This is better, so do we really have to make a move?" Verak's eyes lit up.

"Of course, pretending to rescue the parliamentarians can not only provide cover for their assassination of Maguire, but also make Francois suspect that we have any connection with the parliamentary faction and cause some trouble for them internally, and we have several front feet. The site was taken down, and it is reasonable to fight back. In addition, such an active attack can also stimulate Francois, making him deeply aware of the threat of the Equality Society, which is also conducive to allowing him to hand over the command of the Guard Corps to To Joseph, fully support Joseph to wipe us out as soon as possible." Boyne said.

"Papa papa!"

Verak led several people to applaud Boyin.

"Okay, this way the problem will be solved!" Verac was full of admiration for Boyne, "If we can still beat the guards to the ground with a feint attack, in comparison, François will not be in this matter." There is no hesitation in the matter."

"As expected of the president! You are thoughtful!" Ross clapped the loudest.

"If you think it is feasible, then follow this method." Boyin didn't care.

"No problem." Everyone said in unison.

"Then let's do it."

Four o'clock in the afternoon

Laizein, East End, Green Street, in a bookstore

"It's almost time, are you all ready?" A man wearing glasses and a clean white shirt said to more than a dozen comrades gathered in the bookstore.

Young comrades, both men and women, showed their pistols and said in unison: "Get ready!"

"Remember, if there is any movement outside later, just shoot out all the bullets in the magazine. First, don't aim at the opponent when you shoot. We are all on our own. The main thing is to make the movement louder, just hit randomly. .Secondly, without my order, no one is allowed to show their heads or leave the bookstore for half a step, otherwise the consequences of being hit by stray bullets will be unimaginable." , still trying to keep a serious face.

"clear!"

"Comrade Gary!" When the cadres did not know how many times to remind everyone, a comrade rushed back, out of breath, and said, "They are here!"

Gary waved his hand and said in a deep voice, "Hide everything! Remember not to point the gun at anyone! Don't show your face without my permission!"

"clear!"

Outside the bookstore

Lieutenant Colonel Brian, who is currently the head of the Cavalry Regiment of the Independent Mixed Division, led people to approach the bookstore step by step in the name of patrol.

"Head, we're almost here." A subordinate reminded in a low voice.

"Later you will be responsible for evacuating the people to avoid unnecessary casualties." Brian stared at the bookstore that was getting closer.

"Yes."

The patrol team walking in the middle of the road gradually slowed down, subconsciously causing the pedestrians on both sides of the road to have a vague premonition, and the atmosphere on the street became inexplicably tense.

"boom!"

"Bang! Bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

Suddenly, the glass of the closed bookstore was shattered by bullets from the inside out, and the bullets flew out randomly!

"There are enemies!" Brian immediately grabbed the reins and stabilized the horse under him. His thick roar easily overwhelmed the screams of the people, "Cover the people to evacuate! Surround here! Call for reinforcements!"

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

"Bang bang! bang!"

"Bang! Bang bang bang!"

The comrades of the Equality Association in the bookstore were frantically pouring bullets outward, and the patrol troops who had been prepared for a long time also evacuated the panicked people at the first time, hid in a safe place, and shot at the bookstore.

On Green Street, a very tacit sudden gun battle began.

Laizein, West District, Guard Corps Station, Deputy Head Arthur's Office

"Dong dong dong." There was a knock on the door.

Arthur, who was flipping through the documents, raised his head: "Come in."

A guard walked into the office, saluted Arthur first, and then handed over a letter: "Captain Arthur, someone I don't know outside asked me to hand over the letter to you."

"Someone you don't know?" Arthur took the letter with a puzzled expression.

"Yes, he looked like an unfamiliar face. He said he had something to tell you, and then he took out a letter and asked me to pass it to you." The guard replied.

"What about people?"

"left already."

"You go out first." Arthur dismissed the guards, opened the envelope, and quickly read the contents of the letter.

After reading the letter, he narrowed his eyes and carefully read it twice.

"Independent Mixer..."

Sitting in a chair and thinking for several minutes, Arthur put away the letter, got up and walked out of the office quickly.

"Deputy head." The guards stationed outside saw Arthur come out and followed immediately.

"I'm going out to do some errands, don't follow me." Arthur stopped the guards, walked out of the garrison alone, and walked into the alley opposite the garrison.

"Hang Chi."

While going deep into the alley, Arthur loaded the pistol and was ready to deal with emergencies.

"Deputy Captain Arthur."

"Who?!" Arthur quickly raised his pistol and turned around to aim.

Standing at the corner of the alley, Adel faced the black muzzle with a calm expression: "I am Sherif Adel, a member of the independent mixing division."

"Adel?" Arthur looked vigilant, and the gun did not move away from his body. "You were the one who sent me the letter just now?"

"My identity is too sensitive, I sent someone else to send it to you." Adel glanced outside the alley, and walked towards a more hidden corner, "Come with me."

"Why should I go with you?" Arthur didn't move.

Adel kept walking: "If you want to hurt you, we have plenty of means, come with me."

Arthur had heard of Adel and knew that he was an independent blender, and it was true as he said that if the other party really wanted to hurt himself, there was a way just now, so he put down his pistol and followed: "You said it was Joseph Want to see me?"

"Please come in." Adel came to a door in the alley, opened the door, and invited Arthur to enter.

This is a dilapidated room with little space, but at least there are the minimum tables and chairs.

"Please sit down, Deputy Captain Arthur." Adel sat down first.

After looking around, Arthur put away the gun and sat opposite Adel: "What's going on?"

"General Joseph's identity is more sensitive, and it is inconvenient to meet with you directly, so I represent the independent mixed editor, and I am here to discuss cooperation with you." Adel cut to the point.

"Cooperation?" Arthur's brain was racing.

"You are so smart, you must have already guessed what the content of the cooperation is. That's right, General Joseph wants to join hands with you to get rid of Maguire."

Arthur was shocked.

He never guessed that Joseph actually wanted to cooperate with this.

"Get rid of... Maguire?"

"Yes." Adel observed Arthur's performance carefully, "Maguire is our common enemy."

"What nonsense, Maguire is my boss, how could he be an enemy?" Arthur pretended to be calm and did not immediately agree with Adel's words.

Adel has already seen his fanaticism from Arthur's eyes: "Don't you want to go one step further and become the head of the Guard Corps?"

"What do you mean?" Arthur couldn't hold his breath, and his breathing became involuntarily rapid.

"You must know Maguire better than I do. He is a cautious person. Although he has not made any great achievements or outstanding political achievements, he has never made any mistakes in his work." Adel took it easy Authentic, "As usual, unless he retires, when will you be able to replace him as the new head of the Guard Corps, and even climb higher?"

"Captain Maguire is someone I admire very much. I have never coveted his position, and I will not do anything for it." Arthur took a deep breath and defended Maguire with fake news.

"Heh." Adel chuckled lightly, "If you weren't interested in this, how could you come here by yourself soon after you received the letter?"

"I-"

"Everyone can see your ability. If you can become the head of the Guard Corps, how can the Guard Corps be a backwater? How can the Equality Council ride on its head and run amok?" Adel interrupted Arthur. Justified, "A mediocre waste like Maguire blocked the opportunity to show your talents, are you really convinced?"

Arthur's expression was slightly moved: "Why do you independent editors want to attack Captain Maguire?"

Adel did not speak, but pushed the forged dossier on the table to Arthur.

"What's this?" Arthur opened it and flipped through it.

The file contained a murder case more than 20 years ago.

The murderer of the murder has not been found, but the name of the deceased quickly reminded him of something: "Maren Sherman... who is this general Maren Joseph?"

"His younger brother."

"So, the murderer who killed General Joseph's brother was Captain Maguire?" Arthur said the only possibility.

Adel nodded: "Yes. More than 20 years ago, Maguire killed General Joseph's younger brother. At that time, Maguire had a strong background, and General Joseph's family was far from his opponent, so Maguire could not be brought to justice. Later, General Joseph joined the army and came to today step by step. Maguire has forgotten about it, but General Joseph still keeps the blood feud firmly in his heart."

"It's been a while since the independent mixed division returned to Laizein, right? It's been a while since General Joseph led the independent mixed division? Why didn't he take revenge sooner or later, but chose this time to join forces with me?" Arthur was skeptical.

"General Joseph's idea of revenge has been going on for a long time, but as the commander of an independent mixed division, it is really inconvenient for him to attack his colleagues. Recently, Maguire was instructed by President Francois to monitor and target General Joseph everywhere. Joseph The general had no choice but to make up his mind to get rid of this enemy. And you, both in terms of knowledge and ability, are far superior to Maguire, but you are always called around by him. General Joseph believes that we will join forces to eradicate Maguire Not only helping others, but also helping ourselves.”

Arthur was a little loose, but he was afraid that Maguire was sending someone to test himself: "How do you prove that Joseph sent you here?"

"What kind of proof do you need?" Adel asked back.

"This kind of matter is very important. If you want to talk about it, let him come and talk to me in person." After finishing speaking, Arthur got up and was about to leave.

He believes that if Joseph really wants to cooperate with him, there are plenty of ways to find him again. If this is someone else's temptation, or some other conspiracy, his current attitude can actually protect himself.

But Adel did not stop him from leaving as he expected, but just sat there firmly: "Today is the only chance, if you don't believe me, I'm afraid you will stay in the position of deputy head for a long, long time .”

The only chance?

How could it be the only chance?

Arthur felt a little unable to move his legs. He froze at the door and turned around slowly: "What do you mean?"

"If we fail to negotiate today, I don't know when it will be if we want to get rid of Maguire without any risk." Adel smiled slightly, "Please sit down, I still have a lot of things that you must be interested in. "

"Say." Arthur sat back with a serious look on his face, as if to hear what kind of tricks Joseph had.

"Tomorrow is the best time for us to join forces to get rid of Maguire." Adel said.

"Get rid of, do you mean kill him?"

"Yes."

"Why is tomorrow the best time?" Arthur asked.

"Let me first talk about the plan that General Joseph has already made. After listening, you will know why tomorrow is the best time." Adel explained the plan as simply and clearly as possible. Unrelated but reliable people went to Maguire's office, killed Maguire directly, and then deliberately let him escape from the guard regiment's garrison. The patrol team of our independent mixed division would catch him and kill him on the spot. Let the prisoners of the Equality Society believe that he is a member of the Equality Society, and the assassination of Maguire is the work of the Equality Society, and remove our suspicion."

Arthur felt that this plan sounded a bit too hasty and unreliable: "I sent someone to kill him, and you killed the people I sent, and then identified the assassin as a member of the Equal Society?"

"Yes."

"I understand the reason why you want us to join forces, so that we can prove each other." Arthur shook his head, and the beautiful vision in his heart began to collapse, "But how could President Francois believe it? You have to say it casually He's a member of the Equal Society, he's a member of the Equal Society, it would have been too easy to kill Maguire."

"Of course it's not that simple. But what if at the same time as our assassination, the Equality Society also sent people to take action? If the day before the action, that is, today, we arrested a large number of members of the Equality Society, let them Have a logical reason to fight back?" Adel said with confidence.

Arthur opened his mouth slightly, wanting to ask 'what do you mean'.

This time without him saying it out, Adel answered in advance: "Our independent editors have not been idle during this time, and we have secretly obtained a lot of information about the Equality Association. At this time, our people are opposing Equality will take action, and we are sure that Equality will have a large-scale operation tomorrow."

"You..." Arthur was surprised that the independent editor who seemed helpless against the Equality Society had secretly taken control of the situation. He really thought that everyone had nothing to do with the Equality Society.

"It is precisely because of these that we can cover our actions tomorrow that I say that tomorrow is our only chance to get rid of Maguire. Tomorrow we will prove each other. The move can be understood as revenge, Mr. President will not suspect us no matter what."

Arthur was moved.

In fact, it is not difficult to kill Maguire, especially for him.

The real difficulty is how to clear the suspicion.

If Maguire is killed directly, and all the suspicions are pointed at his head, then Arthur will never want to be reused by Francois.

After all, he can kill Maguire in the top position, how can the cautious Francois guarantee that his ambition will not expand to kill him one day.

Now that the independent editor is willing to cooperate with him and has a mature and stable method, there is really no reason to refuse.

"I just need to find a reliable person to kill Maguire tomorrow night, and then let him escape?"

Hearing Arthur ask such a question, Adel raised the corner of his mouth, knowing that the overall situation has been settled: "Yes, but you must be careful when finalizing the candidate, it is best that this person has nothing to do with you on the surface. I personally think that it would be better if you can buy Maguire's cronies. But since you are Maguire's cronies, there is a risk of exposure.”

"It makes sense, if it were his people who did it, they wouldn't be able to suspect me." Arthur thought seriously.

"There is one more thing we want to cooperate with you." This matter has not been fully settled, and Adel talked about the second cooperation.

"Anything else?" Arthur couldn't think of what they could cooperate with now.

Adel said: "The eradication of Maguire is only the short-term interests of our two parties, and the next thing to talk about is long-term interests."

"Tell me."

"The main purpose of the independent mixed division staying in Laizein is to eliminate the Equality Association, but we can't stay here forever, this is neither for General Joseph, nor for you who will be promoted to the head of the Guard Corps in the near future benefit."

Hearing the second half of the sentence, Arthur had a smile on his face, and immediately restrained himself because he realized that something was wrong: "Yes."

"You should take over Laizein's defense work, and our independent mixed division should go where we should go. To achieve this, we must first wipe out the Equality Society."

"It's too difficult." When it comes to destroying the Equality Society, Arthur feels powerless.

They've been fighting Equality for far too long.

If there is not enough guard corps, the independent mixed division will be transferred here. If no one can be caught, civilians will be arrested and asked about their whereabouts.

They tried their best, but the Equality Society was still there, in the dark, like an invisible and intangible giant that was close at hand.

Anyway, Arthur himself has no hope of destroying the Equality Society.

"Recently, we have got a lot of clues about the Equality Society, and today you will receive news that the Equality Society has been severely damaged... In short, it is not impossible to wipe out the Equality Society. General Joseph is confident that the Equality Society will be eliminated within a month. Lazer was uprooted." Adel looked confident, and Arthur was more or less infected.

"Okay, let's say you can get rid of the Equality Association within a month, how do you want to cooperate?" Arthur still didn't believe it, and chose to ask about the content related to himself.

"On the one hand, it will take some time for us to get rid of the Equality Association. On the other hand, there is a shortage of manpower." Adel cut into the topic, "You also know that President Francois is very cautious. President François mentioned that he wanted the help of the Guard Corps, but instead of agreeing to it, President Francois sent Maguire to monitor us."

"It's true that..." Arthur sympathized with François' character.

"The second cooperation we are talking about is to hope that after you are promoted to the head of the Guard Corps, you can support us and temporarily hand over the command of the Guard Corps to us to take over the Equality Society. Of course, we also It will definitely not be in vain. When the Equality Association is wiped out, you must have half of the credit. At that time, we will leave Laizein, and you can cover the sky with one hand in Laizein." In fact, Adel and the others speculated that when they and the Equality Association performed After the play, Francois will definitely change his attitude and strongly support them. At this time, they want to get Arthur's permission in order to control the guard corps more thoroughly.

"This..." Arthur hesitated a little.

Military power is very important. If Francois disagrees, but he does so in private, once he is discovered, he may suffer along with him.

Soon, after thinking about it, thinking that if the independent mixed division can really make great achievements today, Francois should also agree with them to mobilize the guard corps, Arthur kicked the ball back to Adel: " Having said so much, there is still a premise, that is, today, as you said, you have made great progress in eliminating the Equality Association. If you really do it, I can cooperate with both of them Promise. If you fail to do so, the first cooperation cannot be carried out, let alone the second cooperation."

"certainly."

"Let's see today." Arthur stood up again, "If everything goes well for you, we will meet again tonight or tomorrow morning to confirm the details of the plan. If things go against our wishes, then we will pretend that nothing happened today."

Adel still didn't stop Arthur this time: "We will definitely meet again soon."

night

Laizein, government buildings, presidential office

Before Francois called, Joseph rushed over by car and reported three simultaneous incidents of purging and suppressing the Equality Society on Green Street, Whitney Street in the East District, and James Street in the South District this afternoon.

"Here we come." Francois smiled and invited Joseph to sit next to him, and enthusiastically poured wine for this subordinate who had just made great achievements, "I just ordered someone to prepare your favorite wine. "

"Thank you." Joseph held the cup in both hands and thanked Francois.

"I heard that in these three operations today, you have arrested many members of the Equality Society and seized a lot of intelligence materials, and you have planned this for a long time... But I, as the president of Bresci, only knew about it after the fact. I don't admire your secrecy work." Francois beat Joseph secretly.

Joseph naturally understood the meaning, and quickly put down his wine glass and explained: "I didn't mean to hide it from you, but this operation has too many unstable factors, and it may fall short at any time. I thought, instead of letting you In the end, I was happy in vain, so I might as well just wait for things to become a surprise for you."

"Hahahaha... If you are interested, come." Francois laughed and clinked a glass with Joseph, "I didn't expect that the promise you made to me before would be fulfilled so quickly. When I heard the news today, I thought I got it wrong."

"It's nothing, our actions will never be called a victory if we haven't completely wiped out the Equality Society." Joseph was not arrogant, "Don't worry, I assure you, we will definitely eliminate the Equality Society within a month clean!"

"Okay!" Francois poured Joseph another full bottle of wine, "Before I promoted you to be a major general, I often heard people talk about how excellent your abilities are. I really didn't expect that I already had such high hopes for you. But you will still find that this greatly underestimates you."

"You flatter me."

"Do you have any clear plans for the subsequent suppression of the Equality Society?" Francois asked.

Joseph straightened his back and reported: "We have acquired a lot of information about the Equality Association during this time. It should continue to accumulate, and giving equality at the right time will be a fatal blow. But this takes too long, and we can't do it anymore Wait for a year or so. So this action is aimed at probing and stimulating the Equality Association."

"Oh?"

"You should have noticed that the Equality Association has been very low-key recently, but with the outbreak of war, we have been distracted by the Bash battlefield, and they should become quite active." Joseph fooled Francois seriously, "We Guessing that they must be planning something big, we must take some special measures to deter them and force them to act faster, so as to show their feet."

"You have your own set of ideas. No matter what, what you do has achieved remarkable results." Francois didn't quite understand what Joseph meant, but he didn't mind too much. Anyway, as long as Joseph can say It is enough to destroy the Equality Society, "What I can do is to trust you unconditionally and support you unconditionally."

"It is because of your support that I can do it with such confidence, and I can make breakthrough progress today." Joseph flattered.

Being flattered by someone like Joseph made Francois a little proud: "I remember you told me before that your manpower is a little short, right? I sent Maguire to assist you at the time. How are you coordinating?" ?”

"To be honest, it didn't go well..." Joseph pretended to be straightforward, "They are just assisting us, and they are not directly dispatched by us. I think arranging their actions requires orders from Maguire. This is both slow and efficient. The possibility of leaking information about the operation, so for example, in this operation, I did not contact the Guard Corps just to be on the safe side."

"In other words, the current arrangement makes the Guard Corps a burden to you?" Francois said.

"I didn't mean that..." Joseph was afraid that Francois would feel that he was accusing him of a problem with the arrangement.

"Don't worry about anything, I understand what you mean." Francois is not stupid, he pondered for a while, and put on a cheerful look, "In this way, the command of the Guard Corps is temporarily handed over to you, and you don't need to ask anyone With your consent, you can mobilize any soldier in the Guard Corps. Maguire will still be responsible for assisting you in your work, and if you need him, just ask."

The explosion has begun! Ask for all your support! grateful! grateful!
