Chapter 37: The Puzzle (2)
"Arrangement?" The bad smile of the oil bottle made me think a lot, "Isn't Pablo just sitting on the side and watching the tiger fight?" ”
"Of course not. He has a careful plan and a plan. The oil bottle continued to laugh.
"Wait. Are you part of the operation? Don't hear about it as an afterthought, do you? I asked.
"In person, of course. I was one of the elite of Lord Balcas's armed forces. Whatever I choose, I'll go. Drag Oil Bottle said proudly.
"Don't talk nonsense. Read on. What happened? I waved my hand.
"Hey, hey. Then let's pick up the book. In other words, Lord Balcas was very unhappy with the guy from the government and wanted to get rid of him, after all, he didn't want to be threatened, and he didn't want to really fight with the guerrillas, but he really wanted to be a member of the parliament. So he arranged a plan to kill people with a knife. The situation, intentions, location, and staffing of this guy were all revealed to the guerrillas. The guerrillas wouldn't let that guy go anyway, so when they got the news, they immediately decided to do it, and told Pablo everything about the exact time of the operation. Then... You should know what's going on, right? "Drag the oil bottle to sell Guan Zidao.
I thought for a moment and said, "It can't be that Pablo let the guerrillas kill that guy first, and then kill the guerrillas, right?" ”
"Smack!" When the oil bottle heard me say this, he clapped his hands and said, "Yes! That's it. But do you know how he arranged it? ”
"I don't know. Say it! ”
"He has to help the guerrillas as well as the government." "In order to show his sincerity, he also specially gathered some armed forces from other places who had grudges and contradictions with the guerrillas. Then he made a selection of his men, and selected the most elite of them. He divided the men into two parts, one of which he brought with him to join the government army, and even changed into his uniform. The other part was led by Córdoba and joined the guerrillas. ”
"And then? Which side are you on? I asked.
"Government forces." Drag the oil bottle smiled, "At that time, I was in contact with the guerrillas, and the guerrillas successfully attacked the camp before the guy woke up." Then, according to the information he had received in advance, Códoba led the guerrillas to attack the guy's men and those who had been invited by Balcas to help. Of course, those of us who joined the government army also helped a lot. Ha ha. Soon the man was captured by the partisans and dragged to an open field and some of the others who had been captured were beaten into a sieve. ”
"And then? The partisans? "I knew that the guerrillas would not end well, but I still asked.
"Of course I was killed!" The oil bottle thought for a moment and said, "It was very chaotic at the time. It's not very easy to control. It quickly turned into a scuffle. But the guerrillas did not expect Pablo to calculate them in this way, and at first it was only those of us who wore government uniforms. They quickly went into disarray, and just as they tried to hold their ground, Códoba struck. Then... I guess I don't need to say it, right? ”
"Didn't anyone run away?" I asked, "All dead?" ”
"Of course you can't all die. But what about running away? It was very chaotic and no one knew exactly who killed whom. It wasn't quite dawn yet. Said the oil bottle.
"Won't the people who ran away report when they go back? Speaking of Pablo's dang. I asked.
"What if you really know? How many people will believe this? Say that Pablo and the guerrillas attacked the government army? Others will only listen to it as a joke. And the other way around? Saying that Pablo violated the agreement and counted the guerrillas together with the government army? The information provided by Pablo is no problem, and it has achieved its goal. They were attacked by a group of government forces. As for Códobá, it was already very chaotic at that time, who cared about whom? ”
"But there is no impermeable wall in this world, and you will not be short of manpower. You have to get out of the air. I said.
The oil bottle nodded, "Yes." But only the guerrillas were aware, and there was no strong evidence. The government, on the other hand, still recklessly believes that Master Balcas is a good man. ”
"What do you say?"
"Balcas had done his homework before. He had been complaining to the government officer who had come to liaise with him that the person he had sent was not good, that he would suffer a lot if he did that, and so on. I guess that guy is really not good, I guess he is a domineering official eunuch. The liaison easily believed everything Balcas said. What's more, Balcas still has so many guerrilla corpses on his hands, and we guys were really involved in that battle, aren't we? What could be better proof of Mr. Balkas' loyalty? The oil bottle smiled after speaking.
I nodded, and I understood. Master Balcas is playing with this hand so beautifully. But... Wait, this guy who borrowed a knife to kill people, who borrowed the hands of the guerrillas to kill that government army. Is this man a threat to Balcas? Hmph, that Earth Emperor didn't move everyone. The threat is nothing more than to turn the guerrillas and Balcas into enemies, but so what? Will Balcas be afraid of the guerrillas? And besides, it is so easy for the guerrillas to believe the government? If it were so easy to believe, peace would have been made long ago.
In other words, this person does not pose a direct threat to Balcas, but this person is an indirect threat, and it is very likely that Balcas will lose what he wants.
What does he want? He wanted not to fight with the guerrillas, but also wanted to get the status of a member of parliament. After all, this matter is very troublesome to have a meeting, and it will put Balcas into a passive situation where Zhu Bajie is not a person when he looks in the mirror. At that time, it will be much more difficult for him to become a parliamentarian. This is obviously what Balcas wants to see from time to time.
But Balcas had no legitimate reason to deal with this potential threat. This person has a backer in the government, and he is quite hard in the background, isn't he? If you do it yourself, there is no need for that, and at the same time, it will make the government ruthless itself and completely put itself in the position of the enemy. In other words, Balcas must not only get rid of the threat, but also make the people behind the threat think that everyone is a friend, a comrade-in-arms, and his own people.
That's why he came up with such a good show. The threat was eliminated by the hands of the guerrillas, and then the guerrillas were used to vote for the government, and the guerrillas could not turn their faces with Master Balcas for a while. After all, the guerrillas have no direct evidence, and they can't start an all-out war with Balcas based on speculation and conjecture, right? Besides, the whole thing is not something that can be thought of by simply thinking about it, and a few bends in it are not something that can be figured out in a while.
Balkas's move is a second, really a second. But compared to our current form。。。。。
