Chapter 304 Total War
City Hall.
It's been a busy mess here.
The "click-click-click" sound of the typewriter never stops, and telegrams are constantly being sent out. However, the roar from time to time in the air will occasionally cover up the typing sound. At this time, the typists will raise their heads in horror, as if they want to
Looking through the wall, he saw the existence that made that terrifying sound.
In the mayor's office, several major bureaucrats in the city were sweating profusely.
Each of them has a tired look on their face, with sunken eye sockets. Since last night, they have not had a chance to close their eyes and rest for a while.
First, there were demonstrations in almost half of the city, and then the Lieutenant General was shot dead in public. Now, the violent sound of gunfire coming from the direction of the port means that the Dong'an people have come.
And listening to the movement in the air, there is no doubt that the Dong'an people did not fight an unprepared battle this time.
what does that mean?
Several bureaucrats know that the Dong'an army has always been victorious in every battle. To defeat them, the only way to defeat them is to rely on ambush and sneak attacks. Now that the enemy has understood their intentions, the outcome of the war can be imagined.
"What should we do now?" Some people almost collapsed, "Stay here and wait to die!"
"Shut up! Damn it, our troops are still fighting on the front lines!"
"What are you fighting for! There were no telegrams from the front line sent back five minutes ago! They're done!"
"Listen to that terrible sound in the sky! We are all going to die from the bombing!"
Several of them were influential figures in Cote City, but at this time, they all seemed like children who had made mistakes, helpless and helpless.
The mayor wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief, and reluctantly said: "The President said that if we insist, reinforcements from nearby cities will soon..."
Bang bang bang bang bang bang!
Suddenly, a burst of gunshots came from outside the door. Several people stared wide-eyed and screamed, lying on the ground with their heads in their hands.
What followed was strafing, and the heavy wooden door of the office was hit by bullets, causing sawdust to fly everywhere, and instantly turned into a pile of waste wood.
"Clang!"
The wooden door was easily kicked open, and Tanya led the special forces team members to dive in.
"It's so boring. I didn't even encounter any decent resistance along the way." Tanya looked at the several Cote City officials lying on the ground and curled her lips in disdain.
The soldiers all gathered in Port Cote to participate in the war. Naturally, the local police force was no match for the special operations team members.
Even after many police officers discovered the identities of Tanya and others, they did not dare to make any resistance and immediately knelt down and surrendered, as if they were afraid that they would be shot to death in a second at night.
Judging from the actions of these senior officials, quick surrender is still a "tradition" from top to bottom.
"Report to the commander, the identities have been verified. They are the mayor of Cote City, the police chief, two council members, and a judge." The special operations team tied up several people and checked their identities one by one.
"Very good." Tanya raised her head, "Leave them alive for now and review them later."
"yes."
When they heard that they were about to be interrogated, several people were very anxious, and the judge even shouted: "Don't interrogate me! I'm willing to say anything!"
Tanya laughed loudly when she heard this: "Your honor, you have a little bit of backbone."
Ignoring the latter's begging for mercy, Tanya turned and left the office. Other administrative staff outside were also squatting aside with their heads in their hands, and the city hall was completely incapacitated.
The task of the special operations team is to raid the municipal government and cut off the command and communication systems with other cities. Now that the set task has been accomplished, Tanya fully complied with Su Yuan's instructions and stayed where she was, waiting to join the large force led by Qi Jiguang.
…
Port Cote.
The gunshots no longer sounded, and the only sound left was the sound of Dong'an soldiers going from house to house collecting weapons.
Families with guns basically chose to hand over their guns. They didn't dare to hide them or hide them privately, because as long as they looked out the window, they could see the corpses of Xifeng soldiers all over the ground.
Those corpses told them that cheating and cheating were absolutely seeking death.
There are also a very small number of people who are uncooperative and even want to attack Dong'an soldiers. To such people, Dong'an soldiers will naturally fight back reasonably.
About an hour later, a large number of Dong'an soldiers left, leaving only a small number to clean up the mess.
Not only do they clean it themselves, they also publicly call for local citizens to come out and help, and those who are willing will be paid.
At first glance, this sounds ironic. It seems a bit sad that our own citizens help enemy soldiers collect the bodies of their own soldiers. But many Cote people don't feel that way.
They still remember the soldiers shooting at the demonstrators last night. They don't have much affection for these foreign soldiers. Moreover, the Dong'an people will also provide rewards.
This surprised them.
To be honest, it would have been better if the Dong'an soldiers did not burst into their home and snatch away all the valuables. Now that they are being paid for their work, it really doesn't look like a victorious enemy army. At least it doesn't look like a Western army.
In the Western Kingdom, the victorious party has absolute rights over the defeated party. Life or death is a matter of words.
Accustomed to this kind of behavioral logic, now faced with the humanization of the Dong'an army, many Cote citizens thought that maybe what the newspapers said was right. This Eastern Empire really has different codes of conduct from the West.
Soon, one after another, people came out of their homes to help with the work.
Arthur and his wife also came out. They were so scared before that they almost thought they were going to die at the gunpoint of the Dong'an soldiers. Now they calmed down and found out that the Dong'an soldiers were not that scary, and they boldly came out to work.
They are poor and need payment to feed their children.
Just seeing the corpses of Xifeng soldiers on the ground, they would inevitably feel sad. But what shocked them even more was that there were almost no corpses of Dong'an soldiers on the ground.
Occasionally there were a few of them, but the Dong'an people would cover them with flags and take them away, taking them back to the ship with great solemnity.
This can only explain one problem, that is, the combat effectiveness of the two sides is very different.
"Arthur, it seems our country is going to end..." the woman whispered.
Arthur responded with silence, thinking that even his wife, who usually didn't care about politics at all, could make such a judgment... It seemed that there was really no hope for this country.
For a moment he didn't know what to say, so he could only pick up the shovel and work.
After Qi Jiguang arrived at the municipal center, he joined Tanya's special operations team.
He ordered the mayor to be interrogated, and then asked several telegraph operators to send reports.
The telegraph operators sat in front of the radio station tremblingly, not knowing what Qi Jiguang wanted them to send.
Qi Jiguang told them calmly: "I want you to send the telegram to all places where it can be sent. The content is only one sentence, 'The Xifeng Kingdom ignored the treaty and ambushed and attacked Dong'an and sent troops to receive Cote Port. From this moment on, the South China Sea Treaty is invalidated.
, Dong'an Kingdom will launch a full-scale war against Xifeng Kingdom.'."
