Alien Empire Total War - Chapter 262
On the evening of December 23, a military meeting was held in the 9th Division’s quarters.
Hudson Monroe, commander of the 9th Division, called all the senior officers of the 9th Division for a meeting in his tent, and before the meeting, he deployed a team of loyal soldiers outside the tent to clear out opponents.
At the military meeting, Monroe explained his thoughts to his subordinates. He did not hide the things that the imperial messengers persuaded him to follow, saying that he was not for glory and wealth, but to prevent more Soldiers died in the ensuing battle.
Monroe’s rhetoric seemed so high-sounding, but he still got the support of most of the officers. The war-weariness not only spread among the grassroots, but even the senior officers like them were deeply affected by it. To avoid war, why would they object?
However, if there are supporters, there will inevitably be opponents. The brigade commander of one of the brigades is a firm supporter of the parliament. He angrily slammed the table and roared under the watchful eyes of everyone:
“I refuse to participate in the mutiny. This is a shameful betrayal! As soldiers of the Republic, we must fight the enemy to the last minute!”
Despite the brigade commander’s roar, Monroe’s expression remained unchanged. He looked at each other coldly and said, “Maxi, are you sure you want to be our enemy? We do this to save the lives of more people.”
“I refuse.” The brigade commander did not realize the danger at all, and he still objected: “As a glorious soldier of the Republic, I will fight the enemy to the last moment, instead of directing my subordinates to move towards the Holy Council. .”
Snapped–
Snapped–
Snapped–
Listening to the brigade commander’s rhetoric, Monroe couldn’t help applauding him, as if to encourage the brigade commander who was loyal to the country. However, just after his applause fell, the gate of the tent suddenly broke into a team of heavily armed men. Soldier!
“Ah! What are you doing?!”
Under the amazed eyes of all the officers, the group of soldiers rushed directly towards the brigade commander, who screamed and subconsciously wanted to touch the weapon on his waist, but he felt empty – before they came in , all weapons were confiscated.
The brigade commander’s hand just touched his waist, and the soldiers who rushed over pushed him down on the table. The brigade commander roared and tried to break free from the soldiers’ restraint, but the strength of several big men made his efforts in vain. .
“Brigadier Maxi, I’m very sorry, I don’t want to use this method either.” Monroe said regretfully, he put his arms around his chest, then looked at the soldier who broke in, and said, “Take him out. Well, remember, don’t shoot.”
“As ordered, General.”
One of the leading soldiers agreed, and then led the team to forcibly drag the struggling brigade leader out. The other officers in the camp watched this scene in horror. After the brigade commander was dragged out, they slowly recovered. .
“Okay, gentlemen, the opponents have been resolved, let’s focus on business.” Monroe said with a smile, but he didn’t know it, and his smile seemed to the other officers’ eyes like Smiling like a tiger.
Before they could say a few words, the tent’s curtain was lifted again from the outside, and the soldier who answered the question just now strode in with blood splattered on his body, as if deliberately, in public. Reporting to the Monroe Exchange:
“General, the objectors have been resolved.”
“Very well, you go down first.” Monroe said calmly, as if he didn’t notice the blood on the soldier’s body, the latter saluted again, turned and left, leaving behind those who were a little frightened. The officers looked at each other.
Facts have proved that Monroe’s method of killing chickens and warning monkeys is very effective. At the next meeting, no one of the officers dared to express their opposition, so they successfully finalized the action plan for the mutiny.
In order to avoid long nights and dreams, Monroe set the action time in a few hours, and as the main target of this mutiny operation, Creighton Heller was undoubtedly the first target to be arrested.
Every night, Heller lived in a two-story single-family building in the city. Except for the remnants of the Guards who returned with him, they stayed in the city hall where the parliament was stationed, and the rest were stationed in his residence. Become Heller’s personal bodyguard.
The number of guards in this team is not large, only less than fifty people. Monroe is not worried that such a small guard will hinder his actions. His only concern is whether Heller will escape in the chaos. Had Heller escaped, the outcome of the mutiny would have been greatly reduced.
In addition to Heller, the residences of the city hall and other councilors are also among the targets of the mutiny. In order to prevent other troops stationed outside the city from entering the city to support after hearing the movement, he must catch all the targets before dawn—— Based on his understanding of the friendly army, the friendly army will definitely not act until the situation is completely understood, which also gives him sufficient time.
…
The military conference was over soon, and the officers were put back. In order to prevent them from repenting or tipping off the council, Monroe had his own guards follow the officers back, serving as their personal bodyguards and surveillance.
After the officers returned, they wondered if Monroe’s method of killing chickens and the guards he sent had played a role, or if they had no idea of opposing the action, and the officers were very honest in following Monroe’s orders and began to mobilize their own troops. Subordinates, let the logistics officer distribute paper bombs and prepare for battle.
The soldiers of the 9th Division were suddenly mobilized and distributed ammunition. They were all a little confused – now the enemy has not come, what are they doing to prepare them for battle?
But soon, the soldiers figured out their mission, and the officers revealed the mutiny to them, saying that as long as the mutiny was successful, the war would end soon, and each of them could return home~www.mtlnovel. com~ After hearing the two key words: the end of the war and returning home from the army, the soldiers became agitated one after another. They were already affected by the war weariness. Immediately leave the station and go into battle.
In this atmosphere, the fact that Monroe had been worried that someone slipped out and leaked the secret did not happen. The officers and soldiers stood quietly on the station grounds, waiting for the order to start the operation.
After the early hours of the day, the action finally began!
After the order to start the operation was given, the soldiers of the brigade left from the ninth division’s station.
The bleak light of the street lamps along the street looked so dim and weak under the illumination of the torches held by the soldiers, and the snoring and faint voices in the houses on both sides also became quiet after hearing the neat footsteps on the street. .
Something big is about to happen!
This is the first thought in the minds of every citizen awakened by the sound of footsteps.
