Chapter 14: "Cooperation" as a Last Resort
Theater Command.
Although the Anti-Terrorist Special Operations Brigade of the Imperial Guard and the three airborne regiments that have been parachuted into the integrated periphery have already been formed, the Theater Command has not yet delegated command authority.
In other words, Admiral Ling Qiming still insists on command for the time being.
Until the commander of the former command learned about the top-secret material, the general did not intend to hand over the command.
But now the general was given by Ye Xiao all at once!
"Commander, this stupidity must be stopped, otherwise more innocent civilians will be killed in the fighting!" A lieutenant colonel staff officer angrily suggested that the plan of that mad commander at the front would drag the entire western theater of operations into the mud, and that the National Assembly would definitely nail the theater to the pillar of shame afterwards.
It's horrific to imagine that the army defending the empire and defending the interests of the empire has no regard for the lives of civilians, which is simply a crime against the empire's huge military spending!
"He's cut off communications from the headquarters!" The communications director grimaced, "We can't continue to contact him. ”
"Bastard!" The chief of staff of the theater of operations slammed his fist on the table angrily: "Dog's guts!" I'm going to shoot him! "The chief of staff is angry that Ye Xiao's behavior of kidnapping the headquarters is extremely bad!
"It's not a matter of shooting now," Lieutenant General Long Xiaotian, who was directly teleported, had a black face, and his subordinates were clamored to be shot, especially since his subordinates were still a real soldier, a soldier who didn't care about personal gains and losses, which made him very annoyed, but this anger could not be vented, so he could only bury it in his heart: "The airborne battalion has already acted, if we don't respond, once we fail, the consequences will be even more serious!" ”
Everyone understood this truth, the airborne battalion attacked the two hostage settlements in two directions, and if they did not respond, even if they succeeded, the grass emperor elements who arrived later would take the hostages again, and the price would be even more bloody - more hostages would inevitably fall under the gun.
"It's kidnapping! This is the kidnapping of the theater command! Wild! Lawlessness! The deputy commander roared angrily, he wanted to kill this bold major now, this kind of behavior was too bad, the empire had never had such a bold man in the past hundred years!
However, the deputy commander also understood that this petty officer at the front was saving the honor of the Imperial military - ridiculous, wasn't it? Even those who don't understand understand it, but they have to curse......
The bigwigs are not stupid, they can feel the trickiness of this incident. But if you are forced to "cooperate" with the action by the "kidnapping", although you will suffer heavy losses, the main responsibility is on the little major, although the honor will be damaged, but it will not be kicked to rot.
Lieutenant General Long Xiaotian and Admiral Ling Qiming, who knew about it, understood in their hearts what Ye Xiao meant-the black cauldron had completely deducted from his head, even if the command made a decision to support it, it would be considered that he had to be forced to do it, and there was not much responsibility for liquidating it afterwards, at most, he was not strict in discipline and had no way to do it.
"Silly boy......" Ling Qiming sighed in his heart, that information that would never be declassified was destined to make Ye Xiao bear this shame forever, even if he was pardoned by the Führer, it was destined to have a bleak future......
"Inform Fang Kaida and Lin Lan, let them cooperate according to Ye Xiao's wishes......" Admiral Ling Qiming ordered with an expressionless face.
Fang Kaida is the commander of the anti-terrorist special operations brigade, and Major General Lin Lan is the commander of the airborne troops division parachuted into Jecheng, although Brigadier General Fang Kaida has been appointed as the commander of the former command because of his anti-terrorism duties, but before the special envoy of the head of state arrives, the former commander is still under the command of the two people - after the special envoy hands over the top-secret information to Fang Kaida, the brigadier general can really obtain command authority.
Everyone thought that the commander had been forced to do so, and they gritted their teeth at the major in Jeseong, and at the same time secretly hated the previous Führer for making a major a commander, but now they could only bite the bullet and let the madman get his wish, even though this was actually what they wanted.
However, it's really aggrieved!
This is the kidnapping of the command, and this kind of behavior is the most disgusting to the command organization.
"My two brigades are almost in Jese," said Lieutenant General Long Xiaotian, "I'll go ahead and supervise the battle." ”
The meaning of the lieutenant general was only understood by Admiral Ling Qiming, and he was obviously not at ease with Fang Kaida, so he went over in the name of supervising the war, so the admiral nodded: "Go ahead." ”
After the lieutenant general left, the chief of staff frowned and said: "Commander, the front finger is the most taboo to have high-ranking officials pointing fingers, and Lieutenant General Long is going over, I'm afraid it will interfere with Fang Kaida's command." ”
"You have to trust the loyalty and character of the Imperial officers!" The general said lightly, he wasn't talking about Long Xiaotian, he was actually talking about Ye Xiao-the chief of staff frowned even more, they were all old foxes, how could he not hear another meaning in the general's words, but he couldn't figure it out, such a daring bastard, where could he still have the loyalty and character of an officer?
……
Small-scale directional teleportation technology is not difficult, but the cost of teleportation is very high - the cost of transporting a person for hundreds of kilometers is thousands of gold coins, and even the deep-pocketed Imperial military can only use it occasionally.
Lieutenant General Long Xiaotian arrived directly at the front finger of Jecheng through directional teleportation, and when he arrived, the envoy from the Fuhrer's Mansion happened to arrive through countless teleportations, and this official of the Fuhrer's Mansion who was once a subordinate of Lieutenant General Long Xiaotian was tortured by teleportation again and again, and his face was pale and sweating.
Seeing the previous boss, the envoy hurriedly got to the point after greeting him: "There are super Class A top-secret documents, Major General Lin Lan and Brigadier General Fang, please let everyone out." ”
Obviously, everyone in the envoy's mouth did not include the previous head of state, and Brigadier General Fang Kaida was not a fool, and after ordering the guards, staff officers, etc., to all withdraw, he said: "Special envoy, please elaborate." ”
The envoy took out a document from the heavily guarded security box, opened it, and motioned for the two to read it.
Fang Kaida and Lin Lan stepped forward and looked at the documents.
Super armor top secret!
The four red fonts that caught the eye made the two of them stunned, and their minds immediately sank into it.
On March 9, 661 in the imperial calendar, at 11 o'clock in the night, the grass emperor attacked Jicheng through the teleportation array, which was called Scarlet Jicheng, a total of more than 140,000 imperial civilians were abducted, and a total of 27,641 civilians were killed in the Scarlet Jicheng incident that lasted for half a month.
Seeing this introduction, both Major General Lin Lan and Brigadier General Fang Kaida were stunned.
March 9th? It's been a long time ago, what's going on?
The two suppressed their doubts and looked at the envoy, they needed an explanation, otherwise they couldn't accept this super Grade A top secret.
"I'll tell you!" Lieutenant General Long Xiaotian said: "After the completion of the spiritual world project, we used the spiritual world to carry out a huge deduction project, and the spiritual world enveloped the whole world to deduce the future ......."
Extrapolating the future?
Brigadier General Fang Kaida and Major General Lin Lan were shocked, it's incredible!
But think about the magic of the spiritual world, and they can accept it in this way.
"Could it be that this is the result of the deduction of the spiritual world?" Major General Lin Lan questioned.
"No......" Lieutenant General Long Xiaotian sighed: "The deduction failed...... More than 20 million gold coins of energy were prepared for the deduction itself, and later the entire energy reserve was consumed, and all the 149 volunteers who could participate in the deduction lost their memories in the deduction. ”
"But what people didn't expect was that Ye Xiao, who was in the new barracks at the time, inadvertently hitched a ride on the deduction because of a coma and joined the deduction, and he was also the only one who had the memory of deduction, this information was sorted out by Ye Xiao, and it was also what happened in the deduction."
"But that was March 9th!" Brigadier General Fang Kaida frowned: "It's June 15th now!" The results of this deduction are useless! ”
"How do you think you got the information about the Imperial Army's cross-border attack on March 8?" The envoy interjected: "All the basis at that time was this information, in fact, we did not succeed, but only postponed the facts of the deduction. ”
Long Xiaotian gave the two of them time to digest and said, "So, do you know the current situation now?" ”
Brigadier General Fang Kaida thought of the madness of the commander of the troops in the city, and couldn't help but say, "The Ye Xiao inside is this Ye Xiao?" His words were clueless, but the other three all knew what they meant, and Lieutenant General Long Xiaotian nodded even more, nodding heavily.
"I see...... Lin Lan and Fang Kaida finally understood the behavior of the idiot commander in their mouths - if Ye Xiao knew the outcome of the Jicheng incident, it was not unreasonable to make such a crazy move.
It's just that such a move will definitely not be understood by everyone, thinking of the liquidation he will suffer in the future, the two can't help but be gloomy, but they admire the soldier who is destined to be spurned by the world, and ask themselves, if you change to yourself, will you have such a fearless attitude?
I thought that Lieutenant General Long Xiaotian was here to interfere with the command, but I didn't expect that there would be such a hidden secret.
"Brigadier General, you are an expert in counter-terrorism, I will not interfere with your command, but I ask you to cooperate with Ye Xiao's actions, he has carried the entire black cauldron on himself regardless of personal honor and disgrace, I hope you can cooperate with him and change the cruel ending of Jicheng!" Lieutenant General Long Xiaotian said solemnly.
Fang Kaida nodded fiercely, "I understand." ”
Seriously, the empire has never had civilians hijacked on such a scale, and the most serious hijacking incident in the past was when the students of a school were hijacked by the grass emperors, more than 2,000 people! Although the Imperial Special Forces succeeded in rescuing the hostages, the deaths of 118 students cast a shadow over the rescue operation.
You must know that there were only 97 grass emperor elements involved in the hijacking at that time!
But this time, it was more than 4,000 grass emperor elements, enough to be called a war, even an expert in the anti-terrorist operation, Brigadier General Fang Kaida did not have the confidence to solve this matter, he always believed that negotiations were very likely to be the only option to resolve the incident.
No matter how humiliating and aggrieved it is, for the sake of the civilians of the entire city, Brigadier General Fang Kaida has already advised the upper echelons of the empire to accept coercion - no one can successfully rescue the population of a city under the abduction of thousands of grass emperors!
War and anti-terrorism are two natures, war is to destroy all enemies, even if civilians are affected, it is normal, soldiers will resolutely kill all that can threaten their lives, even women and children are clear! 、
But anti-terrorism is not, and the soldiers of the anti-terrorist unit first consider the safety of the hostages before shooting.
……
The former commander quickly obtained the command authority of this incident, and Brigadier General Fang Kaida, with the rank of brigadier general, took over the command authority of all the troops who rushed to the front command, that is, Lieutenant General Long Xiaotian, also accepted his jurisdiction.
No way, who makes the family an anti-terrorism expert? The fight against terrorism was left to the other generals of the Empire, and the consequences proved to be the worst option long before the terrorist act occurred.
"Contact the Jeseong Command!" The first thing Fang Kaida did after taking office was to order the communications officer to contact Jicheng.
After receiving a communication request from the anti-terrorist special operations brigade number, they did not refuse, but agreed to connect.
This relieved the communications officer.
"I am the commander of the front-line command, the commander of the anti-terrorist special operations brigade of the Imperial Guard, Fang Kaida! Major Ye Xiao, please answer when you receive it! ”
Ye Xiao in the finger couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this voice - Brigadier General Fang Kaida, the person in charge of the Jicheng incident in the dream realm, and the man who was behind the liquidation after the incident, he didn't expect that he would still be the commander this time.
Thinking of what he had done, Ye Xiao smiled bitterly, it seemed that Brigadier General Fang Kaida was lucky this time, and he didn't have to suffer five years of snow hiding.
"I'm Ye Xiao! Hello sir! Ye Xiao's answer made the communications soldier roll his eyes, how arrogant was he when he "kidnapped" the headquarters just now? Say hello now!
"Our department has decided to cooperate with your department, Major Ye Xiao, please report on the current progress of the assault force, I need to make a decision to cooperate according to the process." Brigadier General Fang Kaida went straight to the point without ink.
Ye Xiao has been concerned about the progress of the two assault forces, casually reported the location of the two troops, and then directly unblocked the authority of the front finger to the company-level officer in the communication system, so that the two sides can contact each other - this is the effect of the new communication system.
After all this last night, Brigadier General Fang Kaida was already able to end the communication - it stands to reason that there was no need for him to continue pestering with a madman, but the brigadier general said at the end: "Major, the door of the Imperial Guard is open for you!" ”
"Thank you......" Ye Xiao felt a feeling of tears in his eyes. The Imperial Guard is independent of the imperial military system, and it is a force directly under the Führer, and if you calculate it carefully, even if Ye Xiao is expelled from the army, it really does not affect his development in the Imperial Guard.
However, this requires that he not be shot or sentenced......
After the communication was over, Brigadier General Fang Kaida immediately ordered the staff officers to establish contact with the airborne battalion training units and coordinate the tactical arrangements.
"Brigade seat, we can directly contact the airborne battalion company-level troops, it is better to directly cancel the command authority of that madman and forcibly take over! Cancel this raid? ”
There was a sudden suggestion from the staff officer.
In his opinion, since he had contact with the three companies of the airborne battalion, why not directly take over the command and curb this operation! And that's the bastard's kidnapping!
Brigadier General Fang Kaida looked at the staff officer who made the suggestion, his eyes became colder and colder, and the staff officer was stared at by the brigadier general like this, becoming more and more puzzled, and couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat.
"Idiot!"
The brigadier general rebuked and withdrew his gaze.
The deputy brigade commander patted the staff officer on the shoulder and motioned for him to go out - how could an anti-terrorism expert not understand that Ye Xiao's disregard for the safety of the hostages was the best plan? Taking advantage of the fact that someone is not cooperating well with the black pot, he actually forcibly took over the command authority? How stupid is this head?
(4,000 words, not divided into chapters...... This is how the whole Laba passed...... What a desolate feeling...... )
