Chapter 134: King of the East Indies

The facts once again proved Della's judgment that the crisis came with ferocity, but dissipated invisibly.

It took half a month for the federal army to gather from all over the country to Kota Goodham, and after two days of marching, when it was still 300 kilometers from Rajamundry, it retreated silently.

The federal government announced that there was a spread of plague in the troops, and in order to prevent the spread of the plague, it immediately withdrew its troops and concentrated on closed treatment.

But then, according to the gossip of some of the soldiers in this unit, when they set out from Kota Goodham, they encountered extremely strange things.

Officers of all ranks began to mysteriously disappear one after another.

On the first day, the number of missing was as high as 136, covering the entire force, including their supreme commander, General Bama.

The next day, the situation intensified, the number of missing people reached 309, and the former deputy commander, who had only been in command for half a day, did not escape.

One second, the chief of staff was still sitting in the car chatting with the driver, and the next second, the person was gone; a non-commissioned officer had just lit a cigarette for the quartermaster, and he bowed his head and threw away the extinguished match, and when he raised his head again, the quartermaster was gone, leaving only the cigarette still burning on the ground.

After a series of strange incidents, the superiors ordered that no matter what the situation, at least two people should be together, and it was strictly forbidden to act alone, even if eating, sleeping, and going to the toilet.

But even this caution will not prevent the situation from deteriorating.

When an adjutant was eating, he just stuffed the bibimbap in his hand into his mouth, and the moment he looked up, the senior sitting opposite was gone.

According to statistics, all disappearances have one thing in common, that is, the survivors, without exception, feel as if there is a gust of wind blowing around them, and there are no other clues.

Soon, a rumor began to circulate among the troops, which soon spread among the troops that had lost a large number of officers: the caste system had been spurned by the gods, this was a punishment from the god of wind, and all those who disappeared were actually captured by the god of wind, and no one would be spared if the troops continued to advance.

The whole army was so frightened by this statement that no one wanted to take a step forward, and had no choice but to retreat.

Sure enough, on the way back from the army, this strange disappearance incident did not happen again, and the claim of this divine punishment seemed to be confirmed, and gradually spread around.

Della didn't tell anyone that Mark was missing when the enemy forces mysteriously disappeared, and he didn't appear until after the enemy had withdrawn.

The occurrence of this incident has caused immeasurable effects on the Indian federal government and the army, and the other side did not continue to send troops in a short period of time, which also gave Ida a chance to breathe.

At the same time, he seized the time to recruit troops to form troops, and at the same time took advantage of the geographical advantages of the large and small Nicobar islands located at the throat of the Shidu Strait to obtain a large number of arms through smuggling, and soon formed a rather combat-ready army, and waved the incendiary banner of "protecting my land and defending my homeland."

Millions of poor peasants finally had their own land, and seeing that there was hope for life, of course they did not want to give it up like this, so people who signed up to join the army were very enthusiastic.

Only healthy young people between the ages of 18 and 28 were selected for conscription, and the conditions were very harsh, and the number was as high as 150,000, and finally, repeated screening, reduced to 50,000.

The expenses of the troops are too great, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Dela, is really unbearable!

50,000 people eat, drink, Lazar, weapons and ammunition, there is no place where there is no need to spend money, forcing Della to sleep, and in less than a month, he has no money!

Fight for war!

Mark led the 'National Salvation Army', which had not yet fully formed its combat effectiveness, to begin the campaign.

The name was given by Jeff, who also came as the head of the new government and took office as the Commander-in-Chief of the National Salvation Army, becoming the youngest commander ever in India.

Three months later, the 'National Salvation Army' inexorably occupied six federations, 53 cities, and millions of square kilometers of land on the east coast, reaching a quarter of the entire area of the Indian federation.

After all, most of the grassroots soldiers in the army were also from the lowest Shudra class, and they were eager to respond to the new policies of the National Salvation Army.

Although the federal government strictly ordered a complete blockade of news, it could not completely control the spread of news, and now, the entire Indian Federation knows that the National Salvation Army is here to rescue the Shudra class and the untouchable class living at the lowest level, and under the rule of Jeff, the 'King of the East Indies', everyone has food, every family has a land, a job is paid, and children can go to school.

(The title of King of the East Indies is passed down from the folk)

Many people are looking forward to when the National Salvation Army led by the King of the East Indies will be able to fight against them.

At this point, the National Salvation Army had grown to 1.8 million people, and the confiscated property of those nobles and lords had solved Della's headaches, and he finally stopped worrying about money.

Now, Dra's command is in charge of a huge economy, the economy of a quarter of the entire Indian Federation is under his control, dozens of ports on the east coast, 24 hours a day, ships come and go, large quantities of goods in and out, sea trade, every day is setting new highs.

All workers worked overtime despite their hard work, and the federal government's economic blockade was broken.

Zuo Chandra, a wealthy landowner who used to rent out his houseboat, handles hundreds of millions of bills every day.

And the right lack of Ida, who was promoted to the chief administrative officer under the command of the king of the East Indies, never dreamed that a year ago, he was still governing hundreds of natives on a barren island where birds don't, but a year later, he was in charge of personnel appointments and administrative affairs in dozens of cities.

Of course, in the hearts of the two, they are just a slave, a slave loyal to Eva and Jeff.

And Mark, who made them the most jealous, he only listened to Eva.
