Chapter 127: Poor

Jagu's plan has finally come to its most critical moment.

While the Supreme Council was busy directing the front-line operations, Jagu gathered his family's private soldiers, who were nominally not soldiers, of course, but caravan guards.

Now, Jagu has decided to take a desperate gamble and forcibly take control of Piltover's Hex Annihilation Device and give Zaun a shot.

It was a bold move, a crazy idea.

Even if Jagu was an executive member of the Supreme Council, if he was found to have done so, he would have been exiled by his family - the entire Myrdalda family, whose surname was Myrdada (except for children under the age of twelve), would be sent to the desert of Shurima to fend for themselves.

As for the children who were lucky enough to stay, Piltover didn't have a place for them, and Zaun would be their home.

In the face of war, Jagu was a little crazy now—but he wasn't unprepared.

With the complete war between Zaun and Piltover, most of Piltover's soldiers were now sent to the battlefield except for a few necessary guards - and the general mobilization order ensured that almost all of Piltover's soldiers were now soldiers as long as they could fight.

In other words, the current Piltover, those who have combat effectiveness are on the battlefield.

All it takes is a single Hex Annihilation Device to hit the battlefield...... Jagu was gone in the face of all obstacles.

At that time, all that will be left in Piltover is the private soldiers of the Myrdalda family and a few other large families - and Jagu is confident that he will be able to control the situation.

As for whether this is a destruction of Piltover......

Jagu doesn't think so.

Himself is saving Piltover!

Piltover is rotten and must be saved by himself in order to be reborn!

This city full of pig teammates - Jagu has had enough!

It is true that after the Hexanization bomb, Zaun will be destroyed, and Piltover will lose a generation, but after the pain, Piltover will have a new life!

It would be a new dawn.

As for whether it will cause Piltover to be weakened and then taken advantage of by other city-states or countries - with Hex's annihilation bomb as a guarantee, no one will come and die!

In fact, when making this decision, Jagu himself was also a little painful.

Jagu loved Piltover deep down, but when this love gradually distorted and gradually deformed under the interference of his pig teammates, Jagu finally made this crazy decision.

Sacrifice is inevitable, and on the basis of this sacrifice you will build a new, more progressive Piltover.

……………………

Twilight quadrangle.

Through the window, Sanso watched from afar at the battlefields of Piltover and Zaun.

There were fires everywhere, explosions everywhere.

"Shhh

With a long sigh, Sanso felt a lot more comfortable—while Piltover's uniform looked a little thin on the eve of the Snow Festival, Sanso didn't feel cold at all now.

Just don't let yourself go into battle.

Shaking his head, Yamaso gathered his gear and began his routine patrol.

Sanso is part of the Annihilation Brigade that protects the Hex's Annihilation Device, and this is his twelfth year of service.

Twelve years, the mountain rope has been ...... Still a sergeant.

Once upon a time, Sanso was a great boy - he had just enlisted in the army and arrived in the most demanding annihilation brigade, and he was confident that he could definitely do great things.

But in reality, how can a big business be so simple?

There was no war, no turmoil, and the most elite annihilation brigade of the entire Piltover was stationed, patrolled, and trained every day.

Many felt that this was not a future, and they left the brigade - either to venture out into Bilgewater, or to join a caravan as a guard.

But the mountain rope stayed.

It's not that Yamaso has ideals - he's just an ordinary person, and he stays here only because it's the most stable.

You don't need to be uprooted, you don't need to wander around.

There's no honor, but there's no risk, right?

So, Shanso was stationed here for twelve years.

There's no chance of marrying a wife and having children, and Yamasuo doesn't care - they're used to being alone anyway, and that's fine.

Then, just a few days after Sanso's thirtieth birthday, Zaan and Piltover went to war.

When the war came, Sanso's first feeling was not "I want to fight", but "I was lucky" - after the general mobilization order was issued, anyone who had received military training was obliged to join the Piltover armament and fight for Piltover.

And people like Yamasuo, who have special tasks, don't have to go to the battlefield.

As for whether someone will sneak up on the annihilation device?

Stop it.

It's clear how complicated the defenses out there are - every time he goes to work, he needs to follow the manual step by step, and the slightest mistake is the end of it.

Moreover, in the whole of Piltover, there are more than a hundred annihilation device posts like here in Shanso - both true and false, and without the joint cooperation of the captain of the annihilation brigade and the Supreme Council of Piet, outsiders cannot find any of them to be real.

Even if an intruder finds which one is true, only one sentry has access to the Hex's Annihilation Device open at any one time.

So, the mountain rope is not so much protecting as it is ...... Janitor.

There's a complete Hex defense matrix here, and if someone really breaks through all the defenses, all that's left for Sanso to do is press the self-destruct button......

It is for this reason that Sanso has been considering himself lucky lately.

Especially looking at the continuous artillery fire in the distance outside the window, Shan Suo even wanted to sing a song.

Thanks to Lady Luck!

——————

Piltover had one hundred and twenty-eight such Hex Annihilation Outposts, sixteen of which led to the real Hex Annihilation Device - but only one passage was open at any one time, and only the Executive Committee of the Supreme Council knew which one was opened.

The normal flow of the Hex's annihilation device is as follows: the commander-in-chief of the Leather City Armaments provides a report on the application, the Supreme Council reviews it and the executive committee provides authorization, and then through the on-duty sentry post, the passage is opened through the dynamic code and the physical key of the sentry post, and the leader of the annihilation team personally operates the firing of the annihilation bomb.
