Chapter 282: Everything is ready

After breakfast, Anne left the Avenue de l'Elysée for the Doge's Palace. The situation in Marcellus has developed so far, and she has seen a lot of things. And since the beginning of the war, the Marquis of Whitehead has transferred the children of his family from the Imperial mainland to Marcellus for various reasons, and installed them in the Imperial Army. At the same time, the Marquis was also secretly transferring the family estate, shifting the center of gravity of the entire Whitehead family to the east coast.

A thorough investigation of the Whitehead family reveals that this important family of the empire is only an empty shell in the empire itself, with only a part of the subordinates and distant tribes managing the family estate and estate.

My father was really going to rebel.

Even if she knew this, Anne could only let out a long sigh, and nothing could be changed.

Because she knew that it was Young Master Liang who wanted Marcellus, and the Whitehead family was just a puppet he launched. Without a father, he would have supported others. And after losing Marcellus, his father will inevitably die after his defeat and return to the empire, and the whole family will also be implicated.

This is no longer a question of loyalty or disloyalty, it is a question of family survival.

At this time...... The Marquis of Whitehead was also waiting for news from Young Master Liang. The Black Fire Company was so blatant in its reselling of arms to both sides of the war, upgrading the planes of the Parliamentary Army and selling new anti-aircraft weapons to the Imperial Army, from the initial radar to anti-aircraft guns, from wireless fuse shells to missiles......

On the battlefield, as long as whoever gains the advantage, the weapon of the response will immediately be delivered to the opponent's hands.

The Frominck Empire is not a fool, and an investigative team dedicated to the Blackfire Corporation has come to Salo Young. Although the Marquis, in his capacity as the governor of Marcellus, did not allow the investigation team to seize the Black Fire Company, the investigation team held the orders of the Emperor, and the Marquis could not stand in their way all the time.

Fortunately, Da Liang came back in time, and Anne also sent the news of Young Master Liang's appointment.

After patiently waiting for daylight to pass, the Marquis of Whitehead rode very quietly to Élysée Avenue in an unmarked carriage.

At this time, Da Liang was still dealing with the backlog of things that had accumulated during his absence.

When the Marquis of Whitehead arrived, Da Liang was listening to the butler Mike report on the development of the Black Fire Company during this time.

In order to cooperate with Da Liang's plan to embezzle Marcellus, Blackfire has been focusing its business on the Marcellus area. Blackfire has built airports and opened passenger flights in all major cities of Marcellus. At the same time, the Black Fire Company used the money earned from the arms business to open the Black Fire Bank, and then made large-scale acquisitions of bankrupt enterprises along the air transportation network.

In addition, with the support of the Black Fire Company, the Brotherhood established a complete intelligence network in Marcellus in a short period of time, and cooperated with the Black Fire Company to conduct a comprehensive survey of Marcellus' skilled workers in the name of recruitment.

Many technicians who lost their jobs because of the war received invitations from Blackfire.

The war allowed Blackfire to complete the acquisition of Marcellus' industrial system at a very low cost. In the future, the former Scarab Company, now the "Moke Company", will also move important industries to Marcellus.

Soon, Marcellus will be built as a window between Order and the Star Alliance, and magic and technology will go far beyond the rest of Order Star.

Therefore, the Marcellus war should have stopped.

When Sophia brought the Marquis of Whitehead in, Da Liang asked Mike to finish the debriefing and asked the maid to pour the Marquis a glass of wine while turning on the holographic television on the table.

The light in the room dimmed, and a dazzling starry sky appeared in front of Da Liang and the Marquis.

The Marquis thought it was some kind of novel magic and didn't get too curious about it. Nothing is more important to him than the current situation in Marcellus. The Whitehead family was finally about to take this final step, and the Marquis had both expectations of success and fear of failure.

"Very beautiful invention." The Marquis of Whitehead casually admired the strange scene in the room, and then said to Da Liang: "The investigation team of the Empire lives in the Governor's Palace, and the head of the delegation is the Marquis of Berek, who is also an important minister of the Empire. He has repeatedly asked me to order the transfer of troops to seize the company's property, but I have refused under various pretexts.

He will not give up, and it is very likely that he will directly order the Royal Musketeer Cavalry Regiment to seize the Black Fire Company through the imperial capital.

If you want to do anything, you have to do it as soon as possible. ”

Da Liang asked the marquis, "How many troops can you control?" ”

The Marquis said, "The Blue Legion will help me control the Salo Yang, and then the Imperial Army that protects the Tosan Railway is all mine. As long as you take the Saroyan and Tossan railways, and then cut off the transportation of the Death Desert, the other empires will be trapped in various garrisons.

Without supplies, the remaining Imperial army could only surrender to me in the face of the attack of the parliamentary army.

But then I'm going to have to face a counter-offensive from both the Parliamentary Army and the Empire itself. There are not many troops that I can use with confidence, and there are supply problems...... Without the big logistics of the empire itself, the wealth of the Whitehead family could not support the war for too long.

How much support can Blackfire give me? ”

The Tossan Railway is the main artery that runs through the east and west of Marcellus. In order to protect the area, the Empire placed heavy troops along the railway lines and built several large logistics supply warehouses. No matter how fierce the fighting on the front line was, the forces protecting the railway not only did not move, but were strengthened several times.

Now this garrison is under the control of the children and cronies of the Whitehead, an army loyal to the Marquis. The Blue Corps has undergone a purge of officers, and the officers who have been replaced are all outstanding graduates of the military academy selected by the Marquis of Whitehead, and have been completely out of the control of the Parliament. As for the Empire......

The Marquis of Whitehead was a representative of the reformists when he was a cabinet minister in the Empire, and he advocated the reuse of young people with advanced ideas to keep the empire up to date with the changing world. Opposed to the old aristocratic bureaucracy, he preferred to use bold and energetic young officials.

Although the Marquis did not have the idea of rebellion when he selected officers for the Blue Legion, in order to adapt the new officers to the particularity of the Blue Legion, he selected young officers with a certain amount of free thought. After many appointments and encouragement from the Marquis, he was able to guarantee that in the event of special circumstances, the Blue Legion would not obey the orders of the Empire, and even some of them would join the Marquis's banner.

The Marquis of Whitehead's side can say that everything is ready, and it depends on what kind of support the Black Fire Company can come up with.

Da Liang said: "The Marcellus war will not last long, and when you revolt, I will persuade the parliamentary army to start peace talks with you." If you can't cross the Desert of Death, the Floinque Empire won't want to be trapped in the interior and will make peace.

I let you come, not for the Marcellus War, but to talk to you about another war. ”
