With a soft breath, Verak, who had stared at Diaz's tombstone for a long time, stood up and came to where Moraes, Keating, and Ross were standing.
In front of them was Dawn's tombstone.
Dawn did not join the Equality Society, but the things he did helped the Equality Society too much, so Boyne and Mores deliberately set up Dawn's tombstone here so that he would always be remembered by his comrades.
"His wife Edith often comes to see him with her children," 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." Ross' voice was low.
The crisp chirping of birds could be heard in the cemetery, and the vegetation was even more green with just the right amount of sunlight. Surrounded by these vitalities, the four of them silently missed their old friends.
"...gone." Verak placed a flower in his hand in front of the tombstone, wiped away a fallen leaf that fell on it with his hand, and then without saying anything more, he, Morais, and Ross visited Francis one after another.
, Chris, Colin, finally left the cemetery directly.
After getting on the bus, Ross drove everyone to the terminal.
"Have you all made the plan clearly?" On the way back, the atmosphere was a bit dull. Morais broke the silence and asked several people about their gains last night.
"Yes, the main thing is to cooperate with Arthur in the name of an independent mixed division. After joining forces to eradicate Maguire, he will then act with us to gain control of the Guard Corps." Verak said, "The details are a little more detailed.
For example, we have some preliminary ideas on how to act and how to eliminate Maguire. The final decision still requires further discussion between us and the exchange of opinions between Adel and Arthur, who represent the independent mixers."
"Okay." Morais glanced at his watch, "Boyin must have had breakfast by this time, so we can have a chat when we get back."
Half an hour later, the car drove back to the main station of the Pingdong Association in the North District.
"Comrade Morais, Comrade Keating, Comrade Verak, and Comrade Ross." A young comrade walked up to him after the car parked. "President Boyne asked me to inform you that when you come back, go directly to his
Meet at the office."
"Okay, got it." Morais led the other three people to Boyin's office without stopping.
"Good morning, President." After knocking on the door and getting Boyin's permission, Verak was the first to walk in and greeted Boyin with a smile.
Boyin was taking medicine. When he saw the four people coming in, he couldn't help but smile: "It's already morning."
"We went to the cemetery to visit the fallen comrades." Morais greeted Keating, and Ross came in and sat down. "On the way back, we also talked about the Guard Corps."
"I guess there must be progress on this matter." Boyin took the last few pills and put the pill boxes back in the drawer.
"Why are you so sure?" Verak asked curiously.
"Will you come back if there is no progress?" Boyin closed the drawer and crossed his hands, "Let's talk about it."
Verak looked at Keating, but Keating just raised his chin at him: "Let me tell you. Last night we discussed with Joseph and Adel and decided that Adel would represent the independent mixer and go to him.
Arthur talks about cooperation. At the same time, the independent mixer is acting with us, creating the illusion that Joseph and the others are about to eradicate the Equality Society..."
"When the independent mixed division comes into contact with the Guard Corps, the risk can be minimized and the success rate of cooperation will be maximized." Boyin thought about it, "We have thought about this method before, but because of this, all the risks have been transferred to
Joseph personally could not find a suitable opportunity to bring it up."
"Yesterday I just used this as an analogy to open up a new idea. Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Joseph overcame all opinions and actively requested an independent mixer to come forward." Verak understood Boyin's concerns and therefore also
Fortunately, Joseph is not such a narrow-minded person, "In short, the biggest problem has been solved."
"Yes, we can have a solid contact with Arthur, and everything else is easy to talk about. We have already made arrangements for the acting. We originally planned to let Joseph perform well, which will not only alleviate Francois's suspicion, but also improve his performance."
His status makes it more likely that Francois will entrust the Guards Corps to his command." Boyne has made sufficient preparations here.
"That's just right. We can save a lot of time. Maybe the plan can be launched today." Verak was overjoyed.
Morais was the person in charge of planning the acting. He crossed his arms across his chest and after listening to the conversation between the two, said: "If you really want to do it, you can do it today."
"After acting, let Francois see that Joseph has the possibility of completely annihilating the Equality Society. Even if he is still uneasy, he will temporarily hand over the Guard Corps to Joseph. After all, compared to the Equality Society, Joseph's possible threat is too much
It’s not enough to watch. After the independent mixer and Arthur reached a cooperation and helped Arthur rise to the top, everyone
He is a grasshopper on a rope. When the time comes, he will have half of Arthur's credit for annihilating equality, and he will also support it strongly. Both Francois and Arthur are willing to let go. Although it is only temporary, it is enough for us to use.
Get up and take Lezein without any bloodshed." Verak clenched his fists and couldn't wait to see that day come.
"Look, what I said, Verak and Keating will definitely help us a lot when they come back." Boyin praised Verak and Keating for breaking the deadlock.
"To be honest, we didn't do anything. You have already done the preparations for the acting. Joseph himself proposed the independent editor. We just walked around to help everyone reorganize the current situation." Verak did not agree.
Even if something unexpected happens, just wave your hand modestly.
"Okay, don't praise, don't refuse, contact Joseph to finalize the acting matter." It is better to take control of the Guard Corps sooner rather than later. Morais interrupted the two of them with a smile, urging Boyin to give Joseph
Make a phone call.
Verak first learned about the preparations for acting before Boyin called: "How are we going to act here?"
"This is simple. The independent mixers are ours now. It's no big deal if they arrest the comrades." He and his own people pretended to do it. Morais was not worried, "We prepared several performances a week ago.
The site we are using has supporting comrades and enough documents to look real. When they are ready, they can have a gun battle first to make the battle bigger, and then take over the site."
"Isn't it too dangerous to arrest the comrades?" Keating asked.
"It's not dangerous. If Joseph and the others arrest the people, then they can just let the comrades stay in the camp in the name of investigation and interrogation. And if they don't arrest some people, the action will seem insignificant, and it will be difficult to impress Francois.
Morais explained the situation to Keating, "In addition, the comrades we arrested in the past were mainly from the independent mixing division. It seems that whoever catches them basically gets it."
"Ahem..." Boyin took a sip of water and nodded, "The independent mixer camp is probably the safest place at the moment."
Ross, who has been in the army recently, agreed: "No one would have thought that the independent mixed division responsible for clearing us would be full of our people."
Suddenly, the phone rang.
Verak and others all looked at Boyin who answered the phone.
"They are all in my office. They just finished talking and finalized the matter of co-acting. They were about to call you when you called them first." While talking to the person on the other end of the phone, Boyin smiled slightly at a few people.
nod.
After hearing what Boyin said, everyone here knew that he was talking to Joseph, the commander of the independent mixed division.
"Yes, just use the few stations prepared before. When the time comes, you will send people over. We will have a brief exchange of fire and you will take them away."
"Take them all away. Francois must see that you have the hope of completely wiping out the Equality Society. We can prepare a few more if necessary later."
"Of course, the sooner we do this, the better. If there are no problems on your side, take action today. Then as soon as Adel goes to see Arthur, we will advance simultaneously."
"Morais will coordinate with you to carry out specific actions. Okay, let's do this first."
"Bah." The phone was hung up.
Boyn looked at everyone: "Joseph has finished understanding the situation with Adel. He has no objections. The acting can be taken action this afternoon. Morais, you will be responsible for the corresponding scheduling work later."
"Understood." Morais responded.
"Will Adel also go to see Arthur in the afternoon?" Verak heard Adel's arrangement.
"Yes. I haven't even had time to ask you about this yet. Have you figured out how to join forces with Arthur to get rid of Maguire?" Boyne asked.
"It's very simple. We, as equals, will assassinate him directly. But this is just in our name, we don't have to actually send people." Verak said in detail, "Now Joseph, Arthur and Maguire have conflicts of interest.
No matter how Maguire died, Francois would inevitably be suspicious of them. Therefore, if we kill Maguire, we need to involve both parties so that they can be tied together, and they must also be able to prove to each other that they have renounced their relationship.
"
"What's specific?"
"Maguire asked Arthur to arrange for people from the Guards Corps to kill him, while the independent mixed division was responsible for arresting the assassin and helping Arthur prove that the assassin was a member of the Equality Society and had nothing to do with either of them."
After listening, Boyin frowned slightly: "This can only ensure that Francois can't find Joseph, Arthur and the others, but it may not make Francois suspicious. Since it is an equal, he will come forward in the end.
It would be nice 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 he is not left with direct evidence to prove that this matter has something to do with Joseph and Arthur." Verak said.
"It's better to be more prudent." Boyne thought for a moment and proposed his own method, "Let Adel tell Arthur that the independent editor has obtained the information about the follow-up actions of the Equality Society and learned that the Equality Society will be here one day.
To go to the area where the Guard Corps is to rescue the parliamentarians, as long as the assassination of Maguire is scheduled on the same day, Francois' suspicion can be more effectively alleviated."
"This is better, then do we really want to take action?" Verak's eyes lit up.
"Of course, pretending to rescue the parliamentarians can not only provide them with a cover to assassinate Maguire, but also make Francois suspect that we have any connection with the parliamentarians, causing some trouble for them internally, and we have several front-footers.
The site has been taken down, it’s time to fight back
It makes sense. In addition, such a proactive move can stimulate Francois and make him deeply aware of the threat of the Equality Society. This will also help him hand over the command of the Guard Corps to Joseph and fully support Joseph as soon as possible.
Catch us all." Boyin said.
"Bah bang bang!"
Verak led several people to applaud Boyin.
"Okay, this solves all the problems!" Verak admired Boyn full of admiration, "If we can still beat the shit out of the Guards Corps with our feint attack, in comparison, François will not be able to do this.
There was no hesitation at all."
"As expected of the president!" Ross applauded the loudest.
"If you think it's feasible, then follow this method." Boyin didn't take it seriously.
"No problem." Everyone said in unison.
"Then take action."
——
four o'clock in the afternoon
Lezein, East End, Green Street, in a bookstore
"The time is almost up, are you all ready?" A man wearing glasses and a white shirt asked more than a dozen comrades gathered in the bookstore.
Young comrades of both sexes showed their pistols and shouted in unison: "Ready!"
"Remember, when there is movement outside, shoot all the bullets in the magazine. First, never aim at the opponent when shooting. We are all on our own. The main thing is to make the noise louder and shoot randomly.
Second, without my order, no one is allowed to show his face or leave the bookstore, otherwise he will be hit by a stray bullet and the consequences will be disastrous." The leading cadre looked very approachable, but in order to make everyone aware of the danger of this mission,
, still trying to keep a straight face and said.
"clear!"
"clear!"
"clear!"
"Comrade Gary!" When the cadre reminded everyone several times, a comrade rushed back and said out of breath, "They are coming!"
Gary waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Hide everyone! Remember not to point your gun at anyone! You are not allowed to show your head without my permission!"
"clear!"
"clear!"
——
Outside the bookstore
Lieutenant Colonel Bryan, who is currently the commander of the independent mixed division cavalry regiment, led his men to approach the bookstore step by step in the name of patrol.
"Captain, we're almost there." A subordinate reminded in a low voice.
"You will be responsible for evacuating the people later to avoid unnecessary casualties." Brian stared at the bookstore that was getting closer and closer.
"yes."
The patrol walking in the middle of the road gradually slowed down, subconsciously giving pedestrians on both sides of the road a vague premonition, and the atmosphere on the street became inexplicably tense.
"Bang!"
"Bang! Bang!"
"Bang bang bang!!"
Suddenly, the closed glass of the bookstore was shattered by bullets from the inside out, and the bullets flew out randomly!
"There is an enemy!" Brian immediately grabbed the reins and stabilized the horse underneath him. His deep roar easily covered the people's screams, "Cover the people to evacuate! Surround this place! Call for support!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
"Bang bang! Bang!"
"Bang! Bang bang bang!"
The comrades of the Equality Association in the bookstore frantically fired bullets outwards. The patrol troops who had been prepared immediately evacuated the panicked people, hid in a safe area, and fired at the bookstore.
On Green Street, a very tacit and unexpected gun battle began.
——
Lezein, West District, Guards Regiment Station, Deputy Commander 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: "Commander Arthur, there is an unknown person outside who asked me to give the letter to you."
"Someone you don't know?" Arthur took the letter with a puzzled look.
"Yes, he looked like a stranger. He said he had something to tell you, and then he took out a letter and asked me to hand it over to you." the guard replied.
"Where are the people?"
"Already gone."
"You go out first." Arthur sent the guard away, opened the envelope, and quickly read the contents of the letter.
After reading the letter, he narrowed his eyes and read it carefully twice.
"Independent mixer..."
After sitting in a chair and thinking for several minutes, Arthur put the letter away, got up and walked out of the office quickly.
"Deputy Commander." The guards stationed outside saw Arthur coming out and immediately followed him.
"I'm going out to do something, don't follow me." Arthur stopped the guard, walked out of the station alone, and walked into the alley opposite the station.
"Hangchi."
While walking deep into the alley, Arthur loaded his pistol and prepared himself for emergencies.
"Deputy Captain Arthur."
"Who?!" Arthur quickly raised his pistol and turned around to take aim.
Standing at the corner of the alley, Adel faced the black muzzle of the gun with a calm expression: "I am Sharif Adel, from the independent mixer."
"Adel?" Arthur looked wary and did not move the gun away from his body. "You were the one who just sent me the letter?"
"My identity is too sensitive, so I sent someone else to deliver it to you." Adel glanced outside the alley and walked towards a more hidden corner, "Follow me."
"Why should I follow you?" Arthur did not move.
Adel kept walking: "If we want to hurt you, we have plenty of means, come with me."
Arthur had heard of Adel and knew that he was an independent mixer. It was true as he said. If the other party really wanted to hurt him, he had just found a way. So he put down his pistol and followed him: "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 walk in.
This is a shabby room with not much space, but it still has a basic table and chairs.
"Please take a seat, Deputy Captain Arthur." Adel sat down first.
After Arthur looked around, he put away the gun and sat opposite Adel: "What is going on?"
"General Joseph's identity is more sensitive and it is inconvenient to meet you directly, so I am here to discuss cooperation with you on behalf of the independent mixed division." Adel said straight to the point.
"Cooperation?" Arthur's mind was racing.
"You are so smart, you must have guessed what the cooperation is about. Yes, General Joseph wants to join forces 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 are you talking about? Maguire is my boss, how can he be an enemy?" Arthur pretended to be calm and did not immediately agree with Adel's words.
Adel had already seen Arthur's enthusiasm in his eyes: "Don't you want to go one step further and become the commander of the Guards Corps?"
"What do you mean?" Arthur couldn't hold his breath, and his breathing became rapid involuntarily.
"You must know Maguire better than I do. He is a cautious person. Although he has never made any great achievements or outstanding political achievements, he has never made any mistakes at work." Adel took his time.
Authentic, "If this continues, unless you wait for him to retire, when will you be able to replace him as the new commander of the Guard Corps, or even climb higher?"
"Captain Maguire is a person I admire very much. I have never coveted his position, and I will not do whatever it takes to do so." Arthur took a deep breath and defended Maguire with fake news.
"Heh." Adel chuckled, "If you are not interested in this, how could you take the risk and come here alone not long after receiving the letter?"
"I--"
"Everyone sees your ability. If you can become the leader of the Guard Corps, how can the Guard Corps be a backwater? How can it be possible for the Equality Society to ride on your head and do whatever you want?" Adel interrupted Arthur.
Defending, "Are you really convinced that a mediocre loser like Maguire blocked the opportunity to show off his talents?"
Arthur's expression was slightly moved: "Why do you independent editors want to attack Captain Maguire?"
Adel did not speak, but pushed a forged dossier on the table to Arthur.
"What is this?" Arthur opened it and started flipping through it.
The file records a murder case that occurred more than 20 years ago.
The murderer of the murder was not found, but the name of the deceased reminded him of something quickly: "Maren Sherman...who is General Maren Joseph?"
"His brother."
"So, the murderer of 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 brother. At that time, Maguire had a strong background, and General Joseph's family was far from his opponents, so Maguire was not able to be brought to justice.
France. Later, General Joseph joined the army and got to where he is today step by step. Maguire has forgotten the incident, but General Joseph still keeps the blood feud firmly in his heart."
"The independent mixed division has been back to Lezein for a while, right? General Joseph has been commanding the independent mixed division for a while, right? Why didn't you take revenge earlier and later? Why did you choose this time to join forces with me?" Arthur was doubtful.
"General Joseph has been thinking about revenge 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 everywhere and target General Joseph. Joseph
The general is so talented
We have no choice but to make up our minds to get rid of this enemy. And you, both in knowledge and ability, far exceed Maguire, but you are always called back and forth by him. General Joseph believes that we are helping each other by joining forces to eradicate Maguire.
, and you are even helping yourself.”
Arthur was a little relieved, but he was afraid that Maguire was sending someone to test him: "How can you prove that Joseph sent you?"
"What kind of proof do you need?" Adel asked.
"This kind of matter is of great importance. If you want to talk about it, ask him to come to me in person to talk about it." After that, Arthur stood up and left.
He believed that if Joseph really wanted to cooperate with him, there would be many ways to come to him again. If this was a temptation from others or some other conspiracy, his current attitude could actually protect himself.
But Adel did not stop him from leaving as he expected, but just sat there steadily: "Today is the only chance. If you don't believe me, I'm afraid you will have to stay in the position of deputy commander 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 slowly turned around: "What do you mean?"
"If we don't reach an agreement today, I don't know when it will be until we can get rid of Maguire without any problem." Adel smiled slightly, "Please sit down, I still have a lot of things that you will be interested in.
"
"Say." Arthur sat back with an awe-inspiring look, trying to find out what other tricks Joseph might have up his sleeve.
"Tomorrow is the best time for us to join forces to get rid of Maguire." Adel said.
"Get rid of him, 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 made long ago. After listening to it, you will know why tomorrow is the best time." Adel explained the plan as simply and clearly as possible, "Tomorrow night you will send an official to talk to you.
Anyone who has nothing to do but is reliable should go to Maguire's office.
Office, kill Maguire directly, and then deliberately let him escape from the Guard Corps. The patrol team of our independent mixed division will catch him and kill him on the spot, and then let the prisoners of the Equality Association think that he is a member of the Equality Association.
Man, the assassination of Maguire was carried out by the Equality Society, eliminating our suspicion."
Arthur felt that this plan sounded a bit too hasty and unreliable: "I sent people to kill him, and then you killed the people I sent out, and then identified the assassin as a member of the Equality Society?"
"Yes."
"I understand 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 is a member of the Equality Society. He is a member of the Equality Society, so it would be too easy to assassinate Maguire."
"Of course it's not that simple. But what if the Equality Society happens to send people to take action at the same time as we assassinate? What if the day before the action, that is, today, we capture a large number of Equality Society members and let them
Now that you have a logical reason to fight back?" Adel said confidently.
Arthur opened his mouth slightly, wanting to ask 'what do you mean'.
This time, without him having to say it out loud, Adel answered in advance: "Our independent editors have not been idle during this period. We have secretly mastered a lot of information about the Equality Society. At this time, our people are in the East District to deal with
Equality will carry out a cleanup, and we are sure that Equality will have large-scale operations tomorrow."
"You..." Arthur was surprised that the independent mixer, who seemed to be helpless against the Equality Society, had secretly taken control of the situation. He really thought that there was nothing he could do about the Equality Society for everyone.
"It is precisely because these can provide cover for our actions tomorrow that I said that tomorrow is our only chance to eradicate Maguire. Tomorrow we will prove each other, plus the Equality Association has arrested many people today, tomorrow
The action can be understood as revenge, and Mr. President will never doubt 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 eliminate suspicion.
If Maguire was killed directly, all suspicion would be pointed at himself, and Arthur would have no hope of being reused by Francois.
After all, he could kill Maguire to become the leader, so how could the cautious Francois guarantee that his ambition would not grow to the point of killing him one day?
Now that independent mixers are willing to cooperate with me and have mature and reliable methods, 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 was decided: "Yes, but you must be careful when finalizing the candidate. It is best that this person has no relationship with you.
I personally think it would be better if you could bribe Maguire's cronies. But since you are Maguire's cronies, there will be a risk of exposure."
"It makes sense. If it were his people who did it, there would be no suspicion on me." Arthur thought seriously.
"There is one more thing we want to cooperate with you." Before this matter was completely settled, Adel talked about a second cooperation.
"What else?" Arthur now couldn't even imagine what they could do together.
Adel said: "Eradicating Maguire is only the short-term interest of both of us. The next thing to talk about is the long-term interest."
"Tell me about it."
"The main purpose of the independent mixed division staying in Lezein is to wipe out the Pinghe Association, but we can't stay here forever. This is not good for General Joseph, nor for you who will be promoted to the commander of the Guard Corps soon.
benefit."
Hearing the second half of the sentence, Arthur's face filled with a smile, but he immediately restrained himself when he realized something was wrong: "Yes."
"You should take over Lezein's defense work, and our independent mixed divisions should go where we should go. And to achieve this, we must first wipe out the Equality Society."
"This is too difficult." When it came to the Eradicate Society, Arthur felt powerless.
They have fought against equality for too long.
If there are not enough Guards troops, independent mixed divisions will be transferred over. If no one can be caught, civilians will be arrested and questioned about their whereabouts.
They tried their best, but the Equality Society was still there, in the dark, like a huge thing that was invisible, intangible, and close at hand.
Anyway, Arthur himself had given up hope in the Equality Society.
"Recently, we have got a lot of clues about the Equality Society. Today you will receive the news that the Equality Society will be hit hard... In short, annihilating the Equality Society is not an impossible task. General Joseph is confident that the Equality Society will be wiped out within a month.
Uprooted from Lezein." Adel looked confident, which more or less infected Arthur.
"Okay, let's just say that you can get rid of the Equality Society within a month. How do you want to cooperate?" Arthur still didn't believe it and chose to ask something related to himself.
"On the one hand, it will take some time for us to get rid of equality, and on the other hand, there is a shortage of manpower." Adel got to the point, "You also know that President Francois is very cautious in doing things, and General Joseph has worked with Francois before.
President Francois mentioned that he wanted to get help from the Guard Corps, but instead of agreeing, President Francois sent Maguire to monitor us."
"This is indeed..." Arthur felt the same way about Francois's character.
"The second cooperation we are talking about is that we 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 so that we can better suppress the Ping Ping Association. Of course, we also
I will never take advantage of it in vain. When the Equality Society is wiped out, you will definitely have a share of the credit.
Half. When we leave Lezeine, you can cover the sky with one hand in Lezeine." In fact, Adel and the others guessed that after their peaceful play was over, Francois would definitely change his attitude and strongly support them.
I wanted to get Arthur's permission in order to have more complete control over the Guard Corps.
"This..." Arthur hesitated a little.
Military power is very important. If Francois doesn't agree and does it in private, he will most likely suffer disaster if he is discovered.
Soon, after a second thought, thinking that if the independent mixed division could really make a great contribution today, Francois would also agree to their mobilization of the Guard Corps, Arthur kicked the ball back to Adel: "
Having said so much, there is still one premise, that is, today
Naively, as you said, you have made great progress in suppressing the Pingdong Association. If you really do it, I can agree to both cooperations. If you don't do it, the first cooperation cannot be carried out.
, let alone the second cooperation.”
"certainly."
"Then 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 expectations, then we will pretend that nothing happened today."
Adel did not stop Arthur this time: "We will definitely meet again soon."
——
night
lezein, government building, presidential office
Before Francois could call, Joseph rushed over by car and reported on the three simultaneous suppression and equality events that took place this afternoon on Green Street, Whitney Street in the East District, and James Street in the South District.
"Here we come." Francois smiled and invited Joseph to sit down next to him, and enthusiastically poured wine for this subordinate who had just made a great contribution. "I just ordered someone to prepare your favorite wine.
"
"Thank you." Joseph held the cup in both hands and thanked Francois.
"I heard that you arrested many members of the Equality Society and seized a lot of intelligence materials in these three operations today, and you have planned this for a long time... But as the president of Bressy, I only learned about it after the fact.
I have to admire your confidentiality work." Francois secretly knocked Joseph.
Joseph naturally understood the meaning, and quickly put down his glass and explained: "I didn't hide it from you on purpose, but there are too many unstable factors in this operation, and the success may fall short at any time. I thought, rather than let you
In the end, all my happiness was in vain, I might as well just wait until things happen and give you a surprise."
"Hahahaha... I'm interested, come." Francois laughed and clinked a drink with Joseph, "I didn't expect that the promise you made to me before would be fulfilled so quickly. When I learned the news today, I was still
I thought I heard it wrong."
"This is nothing. Without the complete destruction of the Equality Society, our actions will never be called a victory." Joseph was not proud, "Don't worry, I assure you that within a month we will eliminate the Equality Society.
Clean!"
"Okay!" Francois filled Joseph's glass again, "Before I promoted you to major general, I often heard people talk about how excellent your abilities are. I never expected that I had such high hopes for you.
But you will still find that this far underestimates you."
"You're honored."
"Do you have any clear plans for the subsequent clean-up of the Equality Society?" Francois asked.
Joseph straightened his back and reported: "We have mastered a lot of information about the Equality Society during this period. We should continue to accumulate it, and give Equality a fatal blow at the right time. But it takes too long, and we can't continue
We have been waiting for a year and a half. So this action is to test and stimulate equality."
"oh?"
"You should have noticed that the Equality Association has been very low-key recently, but when the war broke out and we were distracted by the Bash battlefield, they should become quite active." Joseph fooled Francois seriously, "We
I guess they must be planning something big, so we must take some special measures to scare them and force them to speed up their actions so that their flaws are exposed."
"You have your own 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 could say it
Just wipe out equality. "What I can do is believe in you unconditionally and support you unconditionally."
"It is precisely because of your support that I can do it with confidence and make breakthrough progress today." Joseph flattered.
Being flattered by someone like Joseph made Francois feel a little proud: "I remember you told me before that your manpower was a little short, right? I sent Maguire to assist you, how was your coordination?
?”
"To be honest, it didn't go well..." Joseph pretended to be straightforward, "They only assist us and are not directly dispatched by us. I think to arrange their actions, we need to give orders from Maguire. This is both slow and inefficient.
There is a possibility of leaking operational information, so for an operation like this, I just wanted to be on the safe side and did not contact the Guard Corps."
"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 think that he was accusing him of problems with his arrangements.
