Chapter 296: Televised Speech
On the same day, the four division commanders hurried back to their camps, and without the slightest delay, they quickly called a meeting of their subordinates!
An hour later, four standing divisions of national defense rose out of camp and rushed overnight to the cities of Rocha, Orhão, and Malanje!
The transfer of heavy weapons such as tanks and armored vehicles will definitely not be very secretive, and all kinds of information have spread rapidly, and many people have gotten the news!
But the families of several division commanders are in Changsheng's hands, and Changsheng also sent a few inspectors to them, it was Sun Qi, Mingyue and others!
In this way, these division commanders had no other business to worry about, but they only wanted to rush to the designated place within the specified time to save themselves and their families.
......
Since the mysterious attack on the Malanje town hall, the rebels have been falling apart and there is no longer the concerted effort and cooperation they had at the beginning of the attack!
In particular, more than a dozen rebel leaders died in the city hall, the mercenary captain disappeared mysteriously, and in the absence of the leader's command, more than a dozen rebels of different camps withdrew from Malanje one after another, returned to their respective territories, and no longer rashly attacked other cities in Angola, but only burned and looted in the four cities occupied!
After the mercenary leader disappeared, the mercenaries also lost their leader, Wilson's subordinates reported the situation to the mercenary group, but strangely, the mercenary group did not send the head of the group again, but issued an order that was unacceptable to the mercenaries, and all the mercenaries quickly withdrew from Angola.
This retreat order was not only unacceptable to the mercenaries, but also unacceptable to Nikota, who personally contacted the mercenary group several times, but the mercenary group did not give any reply!
It was as if the mercenary's mission had been accomplished and there was no longer any need to remain in Angola.
In this way, Nikota naturally could no longer rely on the power of mercenaries, so he could only think of other ways!
The other way to do this is to send his cronies to contact the rebels, and the other is to secretly contact General Karl.
In fact, Nikota had a very early contact with General Karl, if it weren't for General Karl's connivance, with only the combat strength of twenty or thirty thousand rebels, even with the help of mercenaries, it would be impossible to easily capture four large cities such as Malanje!
After getting the news that General Karl was preparing to force the palace to seize power, most of the rebels were a little excited, if General Karl sat firmly on the presidency, wouldn't he be able to capture more territory?
But Nikota did not feel the slightest sense of excitement, and even became more nervous, quickly got in touch with the other rebel leaders, and prepared to withdraw from several cities of Malanje!
It is precisely because of Anur's rule that General Karl will cooperate with the rebels to strengthen his position!
But if Karl sits firmly in the presidency of Angola and loses the strong enemy of Anur, he will no longer need to be involved in the rebels, and will even take advantage of the rebels.
In this way, Nikota sent his subordinates to contact other rebel forces, asking for money for money and guns for guns, just to reunite the rebels who were gradually falling apart!
The other rebels also understood the truth of peace is life and division is death, and after re-electing their respective leaders, they decided to reunite and deal with the next situation together!
Of course, the so-called alliance will certainly also involve the struggle for power and the division of territory, which is also inevitable.
Due to the shrinking power of the rebels, now, tens of thousands of rebels have gathered in the entire Malanje, surrounding the entire city to the point of impassibility, and anyone entering and leaving will go through seven or eight rounds of strict checks!
Especially yellow-skinned Asians, the investigation is more strict and cautious.
Outside the city hall, a criss-cross barbed wire fence was pulled, five steps and one sentry, ten steps and one post, hundreds of fortifications were surrounded in a circle, and three helicopters flew in turn in the air, defending the city hall without revealing a drop of water!
It seems that the mercenaries left Angola, leaving their weapons to the rebel forces!
Since early in the morning, a convoy of off-road vehicles has driven into the city of Malanje, each convoy has dozens of vehicles, and the trucks are full of rebel elites.
A middle-aged black man in his thirties, low and stout, walked off the off-road vehicle proudly, this middle-aged black man was one of the three former leaders, Qimeng!
In the past, Chimon's forces could only flick their tails among the three major forces, but with the withdrawal of the mercenaries and the death of Miwang and other leaders, now Chimon is the second largest force after Nikota!
Not only was Qimeng the only remaining patriarch, but as Qimeng captured the city of Orhão, burned, looted, and co-opted to grow, his power also grew again.
"Hahaha...... I heard that even General Nikota's camp was attacked?" Chimon laughed and stepped forward, looked at the rebel captain who greeted him, and said, "It's a pity that I wasn't in Malanje at the time, otherwise, I would have killed all those bastards......"
"Grand Leader Chimon, General Nikota is waiting for you at the City Hall!" Although the rebel commander was full of anger, he did not dare to talk back, but laughed respectfully!
"Boys, get the gift I brought to General Nikota down!" Chimon turned and looked at the big truck behind him!
Driven away by several heavily armed rebels, a row of disheveled, disheveled white women stepped out of the truck one after another, stood in a row with their heads bowed and cowering, and then looked at their wrists, clearly connected by ropes!
"Grand Leader Chimon, General Nikota doesn't like this tune......"
"Hehe, they're all men, aren't they all like that?I'll go see General Nikota first, now that the forces of all sides are disappearing, the territory is about to be redivided!" "Chimon hurriedly walked to the city hall, walked a few steps before turning around, glared at his subordinates, and scolded rudely, "Hurry up, hand over these women to Nikota's people, Lao Tzu is still waiting for you to protect!"
It seems that although Chimon also understood the need for unity, he did not trust Nikota as a person.
As the sky dawned, more rebel leaders entered Malanje and the town hall to meet Nikota stationed in Malanje!
At this time, rebels from all walks of life emerged outside the city hall, even to the point of crowding!
In the large conference room on the top floor of the city hall, there were nearly twenty rebel leaders, most of whom were newly elected, and their positions had not yet been secured, and they wanted to take the opportunity to meet Nikota to stabilize their positions!
They were sitting around the round table and arguing about the heat, as if they were discussing the division of the territory.
Suddenly, the door of the auditorium was pushed open from the outside, and a man of about thirty hurriedly walked in, it was Nikota's personal guard, and he said in shock, "Generals, the big thing is not good!"
"What's wrong?" Nikota swooped to his feet!
The guard, not knowing how to answer, picked up the remote control on the table and turned on the TV, and in an instant, all the leaders closed their mouths and turned to look at the people on the TV.
General Karl, dressed in a magnificent commander's uniform and wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, sat at his desk, holding a few pages of papers, and raised his head and said, "...... Because of me and several national defense division commanders, the rebels wantonly seized and looted cities, resulting in the displacement of millions of people...... Hereby I issue a proposal that all rebels immediately lay down their arms and surrender to the Defence Division......"
The entire swearing-in speech was broadcast simultaneously on all television stations, and all the Angolan people tuned in to General Karl's speech!
From General Karl taking the responsibility on himself to sending the four major defense divisions to attack quickly, the defeat of the rebels was declared.
For a time, the entire Angolan people were inexplicably excited and rushed to tell each other, hoping for peace to come as soon as possible......
Nearly twenty leaders stared at the TV expressionlessly, with a hint of horror in their eyes, and the entire office was silent, and everyone was silent, as if the slightest noise would bring disaster to themselves!
All the leaders understood what General Karl meant, if the four major defense divisions really acted quickly, without the support of the mercenary group, these rebels who were not fighting were definitely not the opponents of those professional soldiers!
Not to mention, the rebel army, which only has 20,000 or 30,000, is divided into more than a dozen large and small forces, and their combat effectiveness is even weaker under mutual suspicion.
There was no General Karl on the TV, and Chimon, who was sitting next to Nikota, took the lead in breaking the silence and whispered, "General Nikota, didn't we scrape together $100 million and hand it over to that old guy Carl in exchange for Karl ignoring us? Why, didn't General Karl receive the money?"
"Do you want to say that I have embezzled that money?" After watching Karl's TV speech, Nikota was not in a good mood, and said angrily, "That money is related to our life and death, who dares to swallow it privately?"
"But why, that old bastard suddenly made such a speech?" Qimeng replied with an unkind face, "and I heard that the old guy did not deal with Anur, not only did he have a military self-respect, but he also seemed to be ready to force the palace to seize power, but now he ......"
"I don't know what's going on over there...... But don't worry, I kept an eye on that old guy when I made the money, and I have enough evidence in my hand to prove that the old guy got my money, as long as I take out the evidence, that old guy will never have good fruit to eat!"
"Great, release the evidence now, I'm going to see the old Carl guy ruined with my own eyes......"
"Hmph, now that the evidence has been released, that old guy will certainly be ruined, but under the annoyance and anger, there is no room for the two sides to turn around!" Nikota thought for a moment and replied, "Moreover, we don't know what happened over there yet, so it's better to wait for me to contact that old guy Karl, if that old guy insists on getting along with us, I'll release the evidence!"
After thinking about it, the leaders nodded and said, "That's the only way to do it!"
Nikota suddenly stood up and said in a loud voice, "Now that the situation is extremely grim, we should work closely together to deal with the next tense situation, and besides, we must quickly seize the passage into the Wenyue Mountain Range, this is our lifeline, and we must not afford to lose!"
The leaders have changed color, and Nikota proposed a close alliance at this time, which is definitely not a good thing, and nine times out of ten he wants to take the opportunity to annex his own forces!
But what he said also made sense, if the regular army attacked the city it occupied, there would be no other way out but to deal with it jointly!
Unless, withdraw from these cities again and return to the mountains and forests.
But as the old saying goes, it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift!
These rebels are used to plundering big cities, and who wants to go back to the mountains where there is nothing to suffer?
"What does General Nikota mean?" asked a small chieftain cautiously!
"My meaning is obvious, we should unite and elect a grand commander to command all the guerrilla brothers!"
Chimon looked back at the other leaders, and saw that the other leaders also showed embarrassment, but no one stood up to refute Nikota's words!
