Chapter 349: Receiving the Tao and Helping Much
"General Behim, you're still so fast. ”
After a while, Charles's figure slowly appeared at the end of the road that Behim had been staring at.
He looked at Behim, who had been waiting for a long time, showed a bright smile, and continued to Behim: "Are these all partners that can be trusted?"
Compared with when he was in the gamma world, he has a lot of vicissitudes, and he is also much more sleek, which is like two people.
On the battlefield back then, he was a professional soldier, a hero of the United States, and a model soldier.
But now, he has perfectly transformed into a high-level, a transcendent with great power.
"It's a pity to trust your own people. ”
Behim didn't say much, he took out the map directly, and said to Charles: "I have given full authority to an old officer named Mondstadt in the current situation, he has stationed the army in this direction, and we have entered the state from here, and the army has not been able to react. ”
"When we truly take control of all of Missouri, the rest of the Eighteenth Division will have to compromise and join us. ”
The Eighteenth Division was not counted by Behim alone, even with the addition of the adjutant brigadier general.
The so-called extraordinary army, in addition to being powerful, is actually a mixture of the interests of all parties in Missouri, with several different gangs, large and small, in it.
As for the support of the North, the interest groups within the 18th Division had the same goal, and if Behim forcibly commanded the army, he would only lose both.
It is not as good as this, after Missouri is controlled, the interest groups within the 18th Division can only submit to the south anyway.
A few of them know it well in their hearts, for the comparison of strength between the north and the south, although the north Lyon seems to be strong, but the ability of the south is not bad.
"It's a joke that the North will lose a state before the war starts. ”
Charles nodded in satisfaction and continued, "When the war is over, I believe that the two bishops, Smith and Epiid, will definitely give you a good reward." ”
"How can you need a reward for doing something for the church?"
Behim smiled and said, "Professor Smith led us to victory, and we should also make a part of the contribution to the church. ”
Seeing this, Charles could only scold Behim in his heart.
Those who can call Bishop Smith a professor are most likely the elite confidants of Bishop Smith, and there is no comparison with his own identity at all, and people don't need any rewards.
However, Charles was only limited to scolding, and did not pay much attention to Behim.
'Well, let's let you run rampant for a while, and the nerds who don't have the ability will eventually be eliminated from this battlefield. ’
He understands that the real battlefield elite needs excellent commanding officers who have experienced extraordinary wars like himself, not some so-called henchmen.
This world, after all, still belongs to those who have the ability!
"Alright, let's march as soon as possible, and quickly occupy this place. ”
Behim nodded slightly, interrupting Charles's inner drama: "There is an old saying in Huaguo, the night is long and there are many dreams, so it is better to act as soon as possible to avoid any problems." ”
"Well, tonight, my troops will enter Missouri, take it once and for all, and win the first bloodless victory for the South!"
Hearing this, Zhang Zhaochu had already quietly left, no longer eavesdropping.
I don't know if Charles and Behim were too confident or because of some other problem, they never found out that Zhang Zhaochu was eavesdropping nearby.
"It's good if it's not an action against me... But the hiding place that I managed to find is now gone, and it's really troublesome. ”
Zhang Zhaochu muttered to himself, standing outside the highway plain far away from the villages and towns, staring at this endless plain, there was a feeling of trance.
Heaven and earth are so great that there is no place for them.
"The war between the North and the South is about to start, so I'd better go to Hawaii or Alaska, where there are relatively few wars, and hide from it. ”
Zhang Zhaochu clenched his fists and muttered to himself: "When all the dust settles, it's not too late to return here." ”
......
The 80th Division successfully broke through into Missouri, entered Missouri from the other side of the 18th Division's defense, swept through thousands of troops, and most of the 114 counties in the entire Missouri surrendered, and the counties that did not surrender were also making wall grass moves, ready to surrender at any time.
In the entire state of Missouri, only the capital city of Jefferson and the metropolitan city of St. Louis held up resistance.
As for the capitalists in Springfield and Columbia, they had already compromised with the Eightieth Division, announced their membership in the Southern Church, and denounced Lyon.
Mondstadt, who was on the front line, was dumbfounded when he learned that the rear had been invaded by the enemy.
"What's going on, why haven't we heard about it?"
Mondstadt was furious, now it is an information society, let alone now, let's just say that thirty years ago, information covered the whole world, and it was impossible for a large army to bypass the defense line and capture so many rear cities without their own awareness as they do today.
How could this kind of situation, which would only appear in the era of cold weapons and the embryonic era of hot weapons, happen now?
After calming down completely, Mondstadt took a deep breath and immediately asked about the situation: "What's the matter with the intelligence services, didn't the satellite monitoring detect any traces of the enemy?"
"General, all the transcendents of the intelligence service have been taken away by General Behim, and the use of satellite detection alone is ineffective. ”
An adjutant on the side whispered, "The Church of the Eternal Night likes to use the power of the stars the most, and satellite detection..."
At this point, Mondstadt understood the situation, he frowned, and asked, "Where has General Behim gone, it's been five days, why hasn't the General returned yet?"
"I don't know. ”
The adjutant was a little ashamed, he belonged to the state of not knowing three questions: all the transcendents in the intelligence department had been taken away, and in the current war situation dominated by the transcendents, the 18th Division was simply deaf and blind.
If it weren't for the diligent dispatch of government telegrams, they might not even have known that the defense was lost.
"According to normal logic, the 80th Division should take advantage of our information asymmetry and attack our army as soon as possible, and after our army is destroyed, it will be easy to occupy Missouri. ”
After listening to the adjutant's report, Mondstadt let out a long sigh and thought to himself, "Why did they attack the rear first and ignore our army, aren't they afraid that our army will counterattack them?"
yes, isn't he afraid of me going into the jungle... Ahem, isn't he afraid of our transcendent army?!
At that moment, the lieutenant came to Mondstadt once again and whispered to Mondstadt, "General, the city of Jefferson has sent information that seems to want to... We surrendered and surrendered to the South. ”
"Join the South?"
Mondstadt was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but ask, "Why, it's just that the city has been captured, and we still have to fight." ”
"General Behim has appeared in the battle formation of the 80th Division. ”
Hearing this, Mondstadt was silent for a moment, then spoke to the other officers, "Gather all the officers and hold a meeting on the issue of surrender." ”
However, a meeting does not decide anything, it is just a formality.
Most of the officers of the Eighteenth Division were members of interest groups, and most of their gangs had already surrendered to the south in 'enemy-occupied areas', and there were only a few sporadic objections at this meeting, most of which were in favor of submission.
In desperation, Missouri fell into the hands of the South, and the 18th Division did not fire a single shot.
But it doesn't matter, I believe that under the leadership of Behim, the 18th Division can make meritorious contributions to the south.
......
"Missouri tactically successful, is our second step plan about to begin?"
In the glittering church of eternal night in the south, Epide chuckled and spoke to Smith, his voice full of confidence: "I'm afraid, Leon is already busy now, right?"
"Not necessarily. ”
Smith was a little indifferent: "Maybe our Mr. Bishop has some turning point." ”
"Besides, our arguments don't hold water. ”
Hearing this, what Apaid originally wanted to say was completely blocked in his heart.
Yes, their reason for declaring war was that Leon had deliberately betrayed the Church of Eternal Night by handing over the Scepter of Eternal Night to Benjamin.
However, their testimony Zhang Zhaochu ran away, although they knew that Leon did it, but there was no basis for what they said.
They didn't know what Leon was doing in the Maple Leaf Country, and the most important reason why they dared to rebel was the attitude of the heads of the small cities in the north.
Only a night watchman with a high level of night watch can become a priest or a deacon, everyone is a level of night watchman, why do you go to New York, San Francisco, Boston, we have to go to the country?
Lyon's placement of them in small cities clearly caused the resentment of many of the Night's Watch.
Smith and Epide had co-opted the Night's Watch before.
With their support, Smith and Epside dared to oppose Lyon and fight the North and South.
This may be the reason why there is a lot of help for the righteous and little help for the unjust.
"At least, we're the ones right now. ”
Aped took a deep breath and slowly opened his mouth, "Leon is the disadvantage right now. ”
"Next, it's time for us to go head-to-head. ”
Smith nodded, his expression a little indifferent: "When the war starts, we will activate the second plan to cut off the enemy's logistics!"
They are all logisticians, and although not all of them are as powerful as Behim, they can influence the final situation of the war.
