Alien Empire Total War - Chapter 255

“Imperial cavalry is moving towards Adebie, the local militia collapses before the battle!”

On the third day, the cries of newsboys resounded on the streets of Enkrans City again. However, there were fewer pedestrians on the streets today than before, and the cries of newsboys echoed in the empty streets, from the corners One to the other.

“Hey, newsboy, bring me a copy of today’s newspaper.” The young man still wearing the same black woolen coat stopped the newsboy who ran past him. The latter stopped and took a look. The young man unconsciously showed a happy smile on his face.

“Good day, dear sir, this is your newspaper.” The newsboy took off the grey felt hat on his head, gave a salute, put on the hat again, took out a brand new newspaper and handed it to the young man, “Or As usual, one Enklan silver.”

The young man nodded slightly, still tossing the two silver coins to the newsboy, then took the newspaper, turned around and moved on.

The newsboy happily took the silver coin, bowed to the young man again, put the silver coin away, and ran again.

What the newsboy didn’t notice was that several pairs of eyes hiding in the dark alley were watching him with a greedy look and watching him leave.

The young man ignored the gratitude gesture of the newsboy behind him. As he walked, he spread out the newspaper and looked at the headlines in the newspaper. He watched the progress of the imperial cavalry, and the corner of his mouth raised a faint tone again.

But at this moment, the young man who was paying attention to the newspaper did not notice that a group of soldiers in front was walking towards him, and the young man’s hand grabbing the corner of the newspaper also accidentally bumped into each other as they passed by. to the shoulders of the leading soldier.

“Hey!”

The soldier who was hit stopped, turned his head with a displeased face, and stopped the young man who passed by him, “Your Excellency, you hit someone, did you know that?” he shouted.

“What?” The young man turned around and looked at the soldiers who stopped him. Those soldiers had spread out, forming a semi-circle invisible, surrounding him.

The scattered passers-by who passed by saw this scene, and hurriedly increased the speed of their feet and took a detour to leave.

Looking at this scene, the young man had some vague guesses in his heart. He knew that he might have met the rumored **** of the past few days, but the bright side was still calm, and there was no change in his expression.

** is a product that has appeared since the nearby garrison entered the city. Under the current situation of the enemy, the gendarmerie has no energy to control the soldiers in the city. Therefore, many soldiers with corrupt military discipline have become disgusted by the citizens** , to exploit and extort all kinds of citizens, so that the people dare not speak out.

“Your Excellency, I suspect that you are a Lumont spy who sneaked in, and I request you to be searched.” The soldier at the head was domineering and said in a condescending tone.

The young man’s eyes dimmed when he heard this. This excuse is the most commonly used excuse. Once they were targeted by them on the pretext of suspecting that he was a spy of Lumen, although he would not be pulled closer to the prison, at least he would be severely punished. Peel off a layer of skin and hand over all the valuables on your body.

Before he could make any move, the soldiers took a few steps forward and narrowed the encirclement around him. The young man was not flustered, he sneered, raised his left hand, which had been covered by the newspaper, and put the The ring on the middle finger, which symbolizes the status of the MP, is revealed.

“I’m National Congressman Lamb Abner. You accuse me of being a spy for Rumont. Do you have any evidence?”

“National MP?!”

Several soldiers were shocked when they heard the words. They subconsciously took a step back. The face of the soldier at the head changed a few times, and his attitude instantly became humble. already.”

The change in the attitude of the soldiers before and after really shocked the passers-by who had not walked away. They also slowed down their movements and secretly observed the situation on this side.

Abner didn’t let them go. He looked at the soldier at the head coldly, and ordered: “Tell me your names, the troops you belong to, soldiers!”

Those few soldiers only felt that their luck was really bad today, and the others couldn’t stop complaining about the soldier in their hearts, blaming him for provoking such a great god.

The soldier at the head also knew that he could not escape. If he encountered those powerless civilians, he could directly use force to threaten the past, but when he encountered a national congressman, he could not escape even if he used force. , as long as they are still in the city, they will definitely be caught by the gendarmerie.

so……

Led by that soldier, several other soldiers present honestly stated their names, the units they belonged to, and other information.

After they finished speaking, Abner waved his hand to let them leave. In the absence of military police nearby, he did not intend to directly deal with these **, but from the perspective of the imperial background behind him, He wasn’t going to punish those soldiers either.

As long as the number of such gangsters increases, the people’s resentment towards the Republic’s army will increase day by day, and eventually grow to a certain level, resentment and anger will spew out like a volcanic eruption.

When the passers-by around saw that the so-called congressman didn’t deal with the ** who offended him, they shook their heads, sighed silently in their hearts, and sped up their steps to leave here.

…

“Adebie surrenders, and the imperial cavalry is about to come under the city of Enkrans!”

The next day, still on the same street, Abner was still walking down the street wearing his black woolen coat, but the newspaper boy who came running from the front was not the one who sold him the newspaper a few days ago.

When the child shouted that he was about to run past him~www.mtlnovel.com~ Abner stopped the child and bought a newspaper from him, but when he looked at the unfamiliar and immature face of the newsboy, he couldn’t help it. Lived ghostly and asked a question:

“Where’s the newsboy from yesterday?”

“He’s dead, sir,” replied the newsboy, handing Abner the paper.

“How did he die?” Abner asked with a shudder in his heart.

“He was stabbed to death in an alley with a random knife, and all his belongings were confiscated.” The newsboy replied with a bit of sigh, “The newspapers were scattered around him, and many of them were stained red with blood. It’s too awful.”

Abner did not continue to speak, he silently handed a coin to the other party, took the newspaper, and moved on.

The newsboy’s death made him feel pity. When the imperial army was about to invade the city, the security in the city quickly collapsed. In just a few days, there have been many robbery, **** and other evil ***. case, but the city gendarmerie had no clue about it.

Seems like this is the last madness.
