Chapter 67: The Royal Army Raids
Previously, Cang Hao had already judged where the royal army would catch up, so he planted explosives with Pang Jindong and Wan Peng.
As soon as the detonator was pressed, the front of the woods turned into a line of fire, just engulfing the royal army that was catching up.
The explosion bought time, and everyone came to a more prosperous street.
Gunshots and explosions were already heard in the distance, and the streets were in chaos, just as two police cars drove up.
Somchai immediately stepped forward to stop the police car, showed his identity, and said a few words to the police officer above.
Afterwards, Songchai came back and told Cang Hao and Chawalit: "They can send us to the Prime Minister's Office!"
"Great!" Cang Hao immediately arranged for everyone to get on the bus, and at this time there was a problem, there were not enough seats.
There were already policemen in the two police cars, and there were seven people on Cang Hao's side, so they couldn't sit down at all.
Cang Hao opened the trunk of a police car and beckoned Kozo Okamoto: "Come here." ”
Kozo Okamoto walked over: "What are you doing?"
"I'll discuss something with you. Cang Hao punched Okamoto Kozo's temple, Okamoto Kozo's eyes rolled white, and he fainted directly in the trunk.
Cang Hao closed the trunk and knocked on it: "You can be wronged inside." ”
Next, everyone crowded into two police cars and rushed all the way back to the Prime Minister's Office.
At this time, order in Bangkok was out of order, military patrols were everywhere, military vehicles could be seen everywhere at intersections, and all passing vehicles and pedestrians had to be checked by military personnel.
This made Cang Hao very glad that Somchai found the two police cars in time, because these soldiers did not bother the police for the time being.
The military and police in country T have a special relationship, and executives from both sides are often in cahoots.
However, after the outbreak of the military corruption nest, Chawalit promoted a number of officials within the police, and this is how Somchai was promoted, as a result, Chawalit tightened his control over the police, and the police did not participate in the coup.
After all, the police are also an armed force, so the military did not provoke them for the time being.
At this time, the Prime Minister's Office was also in chaos, and the staff here were relieved to see Chawalit's safe return.
The TV in the living room of the Prime Minister's Office was on, and a military man was speaking on the TV.
Cang Hao noticed that this speech was broadcast on a loop, and all normal programs had been interrupted.
Song Chai told Cang Hao: "This person is General Luan Piwen, and now he is a powerful figure in the military......
Cang Hao was a little curious: "What is he talking about?"
Somchai translated, to the effect that the Chawari cabinet was corrupt and incompetent, which led to the massive infiltration of the Khmer Rouge and the spread of the Super Black Death. The country is now facing a serious crisis, fiscal revenues have plummeted, and hundreds of people are unemployed, so it is obligatory for the army to step up and restore order in the country and overthrow the Chawali cabinet. When the military went to the shrine to capture Chawalit, they were resisted by the entourage, so the military made a decisive attack and killed Chawalit himself and all his entourage, and the army was now in complete control of the situation.
Luan's speech emphasized the word "corruption" and accused Chawalit of colluding with foreign forces to embezzle state assets, but did not give concrete evidence.
Cang Hao smiled coldly: "I suspect that Luan Pi Wen may be trying to make a fuss with the sapphire mine of Pattani." ”
Somchai immediately asked, "So what do we do?"
"I only said maybe, in fact, he may not do this......" Shaking his head, Cang Hao slowly analyzed: "The sapphire mine in Pattani is currently not developed, so it is difficult for Luan's accusation to stand. What's more, the king also has a stake in the mineral deposits, and it is easy for the king to be dragged into the water by doing so. ”
"Makes sense. Song Chai sighed: "In this way, it seems that it was fortunate that the shares were given to the king at the beginning, otherwise it would be even more unclear now." ”
Wan Peng walked over and said quite incomprehensibly: "Why is your country so chaotic?"
"That's what country T politics is all about. Shaking his head, Song Chai explained very helplessly: "Let me give you a brief history, my country was originally an imperial system, in 1932, a group of young Zhuang soldiers staged a coup d'état to overthrow the imperial system and establish a constitutional monarchy, just like other democracies, the establishment of the National Assembly as the highest legislative body, the implementation of the separation of powers. That is to say, the democratic government of our country was established under the guidance of the military, which is very rare in the history of the world, and is different from most other countries. Since then, the military has become extremely powerful in national politics, and military governments have often been established. Even if there is an occasional civilian government, the life span is very short...... In other countries, the military usually does not intervene in domestic politics and remains neutral in domestic political factional struggles, but in our country it is the complete opposite, and the army often dictates domestic politics. Although the current country has become a civilian government, every civilian cabinet must have the support of the army, otherwise it will not be long before it will be overthrown by a coup d'état, and our coup d'état frequency is two and a half years. ”
Wan Peng was surprised: "That means that there is an average of one coup d'état every two and a half years?"
"Yes. Somchai nodded: "This is the current situation in our country. ”
Wan Peng asked again, "What about the king?"
"The king is nominally the supreme commander of the army, but he has no real power, and his most powerful weapon is the status of the king...... "Song Chai shook his head and told Wan Peng: "All along, the king is supreme in our country, but the king will not come out easily to express his position. What's more, he is old, and he is powerless in many things, and he has just had an operation recently......"
Cang Hao asked meaningfully: "The Chawali cabinet has not received the support of the military from the beginning?"
"That's right. Song Chai smiled bitterly: "It didn't work at the beginning, and then the prime minister found out about the corruption nest case, and of course the military hated the prime minister to death." ”
"Then it's already obvious. Cang Hao smiled coldly: "Previously, the king stood up to support Chavali, which caused the military to swallow his anger. The recent operation of the king, coupled with the deterioration of the situation in the country, gave the military an opportunity. ”
While a few people were talking, Chavali came over and smiled bitterly: "I'm sorry, several, I think you should go......"
Cang Hao smiled: "Are you an eviction order?"
"Of course not. Chavali shook his head and added, "You are fortunate to have witnessed how I changed from prime minister to civilian, but if you continue to stay, your life will be in danger, and I have no way to protect you." ”
Pang Jindong asked: "So you plan to surrender?"
"That's the only option I have at the moment. Chawali smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I have lost this country......"
While everyone was talking here just now, Chavali had already contacted all parties and had a rough idea of the current situation.
The military was well prepared for this operation, and at the same time as the attack on the shrines on all sides, a large number of troops were dispatched to occupy newspapers, television and radio stations, and attacked various government offices.
Bangkok is now completely under the control of the military, and the only thing Chawalit can mobilize is a small police force.
What's more, the military coup has won a lot of public support, and many people have gathered in the streets to demand that Chawalit be crushed to ashes.
Cang Hao was not surprised by this, from Chavali's public speech earlier, Cang Hao had already sensed that the current situation in country T was very difficult.
The unemployed public can't even afford to pay their utility bills and must find a scapegoat to vent their anger, so Chawali is the best choice.
Chawari reluctantly told everyone: "In the military briefing, I have been killed, in other words, I am already a dead man in the eyes of the law......"
Cang Hao did not hesitate to tell Chawari: "You can't surrender like this!"
"What if you don't surrender?"
"Answer me two questions first: Do you love your country, and do you have the confidence to build your country better?"
Chawalit's answer was very firm: "Of course I love my country, and I also believe that the key to making it better is to give me time, but the army doesn't give me time." ”
"Then you can't surrender. Cang Hao patted Cha Wali on the shoulder, and said a little sarcastically: "If you fall, the military will win again, and of course there will be a new cabinet next, but as long as it does not meet the taste of the military, it will still be overthrown." Your country will always be in turmoil, and the people will live in coup d'état and build a fart?"
"This ......" Cha Wali was not dissatisfied with Cang Hao's wording, but was even more helpless: "But what can I do?"
"Stand up bravely and tell your people that you are still alive and will thwart the military's conspiracy and resume nation-building!"
Chawari's smile turned bitter: "All the mouthpieces are controlled by the military, even if I come out to speak, who will listen?"
"And the internet. Cang Hao told Chawali: "Isn't it that the military has not yet controlled the Internet, and your country must have video websites, just like our Youku." Record a video, put it on it, and the people will naturally see it. ”
Somchai immediately nodded: "That's a good idea!"
"But before releasing the video, we should concentrate the police force here as much as possible......" Cang Hao said to Song Chai "The Prime Minister's Office needs to be guarded!"
Somchai immediately nodded: "Leave this to me!"
"What can I do after I send the video?" Chavali spread his hands: "I don't have a single soldier at hand, how can I compete with the military?"
Somchai coughed twice and whispered a reminder to Chavalit: "Standing in front of you is the best mercenary in the world!"
"Oh my God, I forgot about this......" When Chawali heard this, he suddenly saw hope: "Do you have the ability to help me regain state power?"
Cang Hao smiled: "You mean to hire me?"
"Yes!" Chawalit nodded without hesitation: "I know what you did in JPZ, and I also know that you killed Colonel Song Shuang, since you can fight side by side with the Khmer royal army, of course, you can also fight with the Chawalit cabinet." ”
"I accept this offer. Cang Hao smiled: "I hope this price is quite appropriate." ”
