"Finally we've come this far." Verak was not surprised by this.
Everyone knows that the Martyrs Cemetery has long been targeted by the government, and it is only a matter of time before it is destroyed.
Previously, the action team was committed to planning harassment and sabotage operations in other places. Although this effectively attracted the attention of the government forces and diverted a considerable part of their energy, it was ultimately unable to permanently protect the Martyrs Cemetery.
When the government forces were desperate and couldn't wait to kill all the action teams, it became inevitable to attack the Martyrs Cemetery.
"Tell me about the situation in detail." Verak was ready to give up on the Martyrs Cemetery, but he still asked about the specific situation there before announcing the result.
"The comrades stationed there sent a telegram saying that the government troops had transported boxes upon boxes of supplies, strengthened martial law around the area, and were evacuating some residents living nearby," Murphy said.
"Materials?" Verak looked confused.
"The comrades over there don't know exactly what they are. Anyway, a large batch has been transported. They say that government soldiers are putting these things into the cemetery."
Verak looked at Sherrill, and Sherrill looked at him.
"Tell me carefully." President Alston lowered his voice unconsciously and straightened his body.
President Oston stared at his subordinates closely and said, "Have you checked all these documents with General Selter?"
At the very least, there is a possibility that General Selt deceived him and lied about his achievements. Even worse, these clues can confirm that he made many mistakes in handling the action team.
"This can't be completely sure that everything is false, right? General Selter may have taken these five people to prison for interrogation with the idea of rather than letting go. The one who was arrested may really be an international equal.
Alliance members, or maybe there were some mistakes during the interrogation? With so many people, it is inevitable that there will be accidental killings." President Auston questioned.
The text contains a detailed and complete explanation of what reporter Capa saw in prison, how the prison committed fraud and how it abused innocent people.
There are so many unfavorable clues popping up now, even if there is no final evidence yet, it is enough to explain the problem.
——
There is no organized enemy armed force in Lezeinli, and the government army does not lack warehouses with good environment. The possibility of storing war preparation materials can also be ruled out.
"What?!" President Alston was stunned.
As for what the International Equality Alliance said, the government troops stationed in Lezein did not actually arrest many members of the action team. They basically relied on arresting innocent people to serve as members of the International Equality Alliance to confuse the outside world. Auston
The president didn't care at all.
"This... I don't think it can be used as the strongest evidence. Don't forget, this reporter who defected to the International Equality Alliance was previously trusted by the newspaper. It is not difficult for him to go to prison and deliberately take pictures of what he wants."
After reading the newspaper, President Stone felt a little depressed.
Hearing this, President Alston was half relieved: "You can't talk nonsense about this kind of thing. You didn't even go there to ask about the situation. How can you be sure that they don't have definite evidence?"
"We only have so many people. If we do something, we will all be torn apart alive." Captain Akers was resting in a hotel near the Martyrs Cemetery. Through the window, he saw a group of people pushing and shoving not far away.
The shouting soldiers and people couldn't help but sigh.
There are too many people who are resisting and making trouble.
"Wait a minute." Captain Akers raised his hand, "Now the whole Lezein is in turmoil, and the troops everywhere are stretched thin. When reporting the situation to the superiors, we must exaggerate our situation appropriately, so that we can get more priority.
support."
Lezein, in front of the Cemetery of the Martyrs of the International Equality League
Since the government forces recaptured Lezein, they have successively sent many additional groups of soldiers to guard the area, and eventually the number of troops stationed nearby exceeded two companies.
Soon, the door opened, and one of his direct relatives, the subordinate responsible for Laizein's intelligence work, walked in and bluntly presented a piece of intelligence that shocked his jaw: "The news from the International Equality Alliance may be...
real."
How could it be false?
But that's obviously not what the subordinate is talking about now.
President Allston said nothing.
He knew what his subordinates said made sense.
"According to my secret investigation, many prisoners whom General Selter identified as members of the International Equality Alliance were not searched for reliable criminal evidence when they were arrested. Most of them were detained based on a report from an anonymous person.
In jail." His subordinate reported.
"The experiment is very simple. Five days ago, I made an anonymous reporter myself and randomly reported five people with no connection. As a result, all five people were arrested and sent to prison, and one of them was executed the day before yesterday."
The subordinate himself was very nervous and wiped his cold sweat while talking.
This just made General Selter never take his subordinate seriously and gave him the opportunity to investigate secretly.
Moreover, hundreds of members of the International Equality Alliance were still being held in the prison at this time, and many of them were taken out and executed every day.
President Allston still said nothing.
First, there are some big photos in the newspaper.
Needless to say, they slandered the International Equality Alliance and collected evidence to clarify the matter. They did present solid evidence. Although they cannot openly admit it to the outside world, they all know that everything the International Equality Alliance said is true.
General Selt reported the arrest status to him on a regular basis, and he also gave detailed inquiries and approval every time.
At this time, these soldiers received an order from General Selt and formally destroyed the Martyrs Cemetery by means including but not limited to blowing up and burning.
What about others? For the sake of high rewards, they will inevitably report innocent people indiscriminately.
With the conflict between the people and the government already intensifying to its peak, the government army's plan was not unexpectedly blocked by a large number of people.
Captain Akers held a cup of hot water to keep warm: "Well, we can't blow everyone up to the sky."
This subordinate was personally assigned by him to work in the Lezein Intelligence Bureau.
All in all, President Allston believes that the matter is under control. The counterattack of the newspapers will not matter to the extent that they can. Since there are tens of thousands of government troops stationed in Lazer, it is impossible for the people to fall out.
Government troops suddenly imposed martial law to evacuate the people and transported a lot of things to the cemetery.
After going back and forth like this, if it meets the conditions and has a reason to be transported, there will be very few things that will help the government forces destroy the Martyrs Cemetery.
If I believe this low-level public opinion, wouldn't I be making a big joke?
Thousands of people broke through the human wall blockade of the government troops, poured into the Martyrs Cemetery, and fought with the government soldiers stationed there.
This action was inevitably noticed by nearby residents.
There was a knock on the door.
The adjutant knew very well that in the current situation, it was absolutely not advisable to fight violence with violence. He calmly asked, "Do you want to apply for more troops? Otherwise, the mission will definitely not be carried out."
They do not intend to sleep together with all the comrades who died in the International Equality League, so the possibility of living supplies can be ruled out.
In his opinion, except for the large number of undercover agents stationed in Lelist City who were uncovered, everything else was within the range of recoverability and affordability.
"Your Excellency, you should know that if this matter is true, then if I ask General Selt to find out about the situation, not only will I not get any valuable clues, but it will actually arouse the other party's vigilance." The subordinate said calmly.
And all of this is at your own peril.
——
"No."
"How, how is it possible?" President Alston felt nervous.
The location can be confirmed to be in the prison where they used to imprison members of the International Equality League.
"I know it very well, and I do have some clues. To be precise, I just felt that something was wrong before, so I secretly visited the families of many arrested people and conducted some experiments. The International Equality Alliance spread
The evidence published in these newspapers strongly proves my guess and my test results."
President Allston has just finished a meeting with a group of military officers, ministers, and editors-in-chief of newspapers involved in the public opinion war, to understand and provide guidance on how to deal with the current situation.
"Dong dong dong."
Both of them vaguely guessed what it was.
"What the International Equality Alliance said about us arresting innocent people and acting as members of the International Equality Alliance may be true," the subordinate repeated.
President Allston had read these newspapers at the first time, but he didn't take them to heart at all at the time and directly concluded that they were adulterations of real news from the International Equality League, and were clumsy tricks to incite the people and drive a wedge between them.
But now, he had to take a serious look again.
"Please come in." President Auston, who secretly admired himself for being so calm in the face of strong winds and waves, called out.
"Then I'll go." The adjutant nodded slightly.
President Allston still couldn't believe the content of the report.
The strength of their two companies was extremely weak, both in maintaining order and in suppressing them.
The result of running out of patience is that they will naturally have the idea and consensus that "instead of cowering and lingering, waiting for the government to send them to death at any time, it is better to fight to the end and gain a brilliant possibility."
How is this possible?
"Yes, it is for these reasons that I only heightened my suspicions and did not directly conclude that everything was what I thought. It was not until the International Equality Alliance obtained a large amount of intelligence that they launched a public opinion counterattack against us." The subordinate handed over several newspapers.
President Allston.
government building, presidential office
"Have you got any reliable information?" President Alston looked much more serious, "Do you know what you mean by what you said?"
The subordinate took a deep breath, leaned forward slightly and said: "I also doubted whether I was worrying too much at first. After all, it is more likely that I will have problems than General Selt and a large number of officers to deceive you. But I am more likely to have problems. But
I can't go directly to find the prison. In this case, if there is a slight possibility that it is true, it will definitely alarm them and make things uncontrollable. So, to be on the safe side, I decided to do an experiment myself and further investigate through the experiment.
judge."
After all, the current strength of the International Equality Alliance is not enough to compete with the powerful government forces. If the soil on which they have grown and relied on for survival is destroyed, the force that has lost its future and can only huddle in a corner and resist stubbornly will no longer be able to compete.
Not a threat.
The candidates to be executed every day were decided at will by the deputy warden whoever was displeased that day.
Canceling most of the benefits previously maintained by the International Equality Alliance, using violence to maintain order, using the public to make false reports, arresting innocent people as members of the International Equality Alliance and executing them, etc., gradually broke down their patience.
"You..." President Alston's expression froze.
If a subordinate acts as an anonymous person and reports five people casually, five people will be arrested, and some of them will be executed.
Now, among the thousands of arrested members of the International Equality Alliance, it is easy to imagine how many of them are genuine.
Captain Akers, who was responsible for guarding the martyrs' cemetery and executing the sabotage plan, was very troubled and helpless.
It's a pity that they have just returned to Lezein, and most of the security work is handled by General Selt, and the Intelligence Bureau is still just an empty frame.
The few prisoners who got out alive were released because their relatives scraped together a large sum of money and bribed prison staff.
Even if the International Equality Alliance has the current evidence, it will not be enough to completely reverse public opinion and make everyone change their views. It can muddy the water and make people who are not qualified to judge become wary of trusting the International Equality Alliance.
, they win.
President Allston swallowed his saliva and struggled to remain calm, waiting for his subordinates to tell the full story.
The adjutant stood next to Captain Akers and said unhappily: "I really want to order them to be shot."
"Understood." The adjutant turned and left.
"But you don't have to worry too much. Before there is conclusive evidence, this is just a guess after all." Seeing President Auston's pale face, the subordinate tried to make some better guesses, "Think about it, Lazerin
Although the Intelligence Bureau is still empty, it is established here after all. If General Selt really has the ability to unite all the officers to deceive you, he should not forget to win over me. But in fact, they have not contacted me for so long.
"
"I will continue to investigate the rest of the evidence and try to report to you as soon as possible." The subordinate added with a sullen face, "However, there is one more thing you must be aware of. There are so many clues.
It cannot be recognized as true, but it cannot be recognized as false either. This is enough to explain something."
Some prisoners were given false treatment, some were beaten, and some were interrogated.
Because the comfort from his subordinates had no effect on him.
Not to mention General Selter, even he had almost forgotten that there was such a number one person in such a department.
If this subordinate whom he personally appointed had not come to visit him on his own initiative, they would probably not see each other again for quite some time.
"...If it's true, it means that Selt has united a considerable number of people in Lezein, almost silencing me and causing me to lose the ability to judge." After a while, Auston recovered.
He spoke, "There are very few people I can rely on now, and the help I can provide you is also very limited..."
"Don't worry, I will be fully prepared. You only need to consider how to deal with General Selter if everything is true."
