Chapter 490: Crisis of Confidence
Two pieces of information, one of which Ishar released publicly through an army-wide circular, and the other of which Gustav sent to the three detachment commanders of the Sea Clan fleet using his personal authority.
Ishaar's announcement naturally stunned all the officers of the two clans, and the Sea Clan fleet immediately exploded.
As their supreme commander, Gustav had always had a high prestige within the Sea Clan fleet, and most of the senior officers were personally promoted by him, and when he received the news, he expressed shock and suspicion at the news.
They contacted their superiors one after another for verification, but all the news flowed into the sea like mud, not to mention any response from Gustav, and even their own flagship was directly lost.
Later, the incident of the flagship attacking his own fleet broke out, and this mutiny incident was completely covered with a coffin board!
Everyone was dumbfounded now, could it be that what Ishar said was true?
The Sea Clan officers were panicked, and after confirming that Gustav was missing, the three squadron commanders took over the command of the fleet in accordance with the wartime emergency regulations, and immediately exchanged information with each other.
Immediately afterward, they held an internal emergency meeting......
……
"Ishar says that Chief Gustav has defected, and now the flagship has lost contact again, the situation is really too strange!
But in any case, I never believe that the chief will rebel, we have followed him for many years, what kind of person he is, it is very clear to everyone here, if you want to say mutiny, I don't believe it! ”
It was the commander of the 1st Detachment who spoke, as well as Gustav's absolute confidant and number one admiral.
He had followed Gustav for many years and thought he knew him very well, so from the very beginning, he did not believe that Gustav would defect at all.
Conspiracy! There must be a big conspiracy here!
Such a preconceived notion naturally defended Gustav vigorously.
"I would never believe that Commander Gustav defected to the enemy before today, but the series of orders issued by the commander before this is indeed quite strange, and the battle situation facing our fleet is rapidly deteriorating! How should this be explained? The commander of the Third Squadron, who was in charge of wormhole defense, frowned.
Whether the mutiny is true or not, Gustav's previous order is indeed quite suspicious!
It is only obvious that two fleet transfers have created two excellent opportunities for the One Society to act in the wormhole and Kara.
Now that I think about it, it's not as simple as a bad decision.
"What's more, now that the flagship has defected to the side of the One Society, and has indeed sunk our warship, there is no doubt that the flagship has indeed been controlled by the other side, and the only one who can do this without warning is His Excellency Gustav himself.
Now all the evidence points to the possibility of the defection of His Excellency Gustavus......"
This statement was again refuted by the commander of the 1st Squadron.
"No, I think there are other possibilities...... Could it be that the chief is not acting secretly, and this time our plan of action has been leaked again, causing the other party to make a plan?
Or, the other party first activated the senior spy, and somehow directly controlled His Excellency Gustav, and then issued two fake orders to us in the guise of the captain.
But when he controlled the flagship to attack our own, Gustav was finally forced to resist in anger and risked his life to send us a final warning.
I've investigated, and Gustav's messages were sent through a separate communication system on the flagship, suggesting that the Controlling Brain is out of his control at the moment, and that he himself is likely to be physically restrained.
Judging from the tone of that masterpiece, I am afraid that such an act will soon be discovered by the other party, so His Excellency Gustav may have ...... Everything points to disaster! ”
The three of them were all a little silent, and their hearts immediately sketched the tragic scene of Gustav's red eyes, sending the last short warning message in front of countless gun threats, regardless of their safety, and then being drowned out by the torrent of lasers......
Well! It's like the fighting style of your own officer!
It's very Gustav!
"But if that's the case, is it really as the chief said...... Is it Lord Ishaar? ”
Watch out for Ishaar! This was Gustav's final warning to them.
"Why can't it be? The intelligence protection within our regiment is like nothing, it is like a sieve that is wantonly infiltrated and stolen by the unity of all things, and all kinds of arms and high-tech secrets frequently appear in the hands of the enemy.
The previous electronic harassment, why did their feather clan go unscathed? We frequently lost on the battlefield and were reprimanded by the top brass of the military department, but a hairy boy from the Yu clan was promoted to the third level and made steady progress.
Now that we've even got our own commanders in it, they're still going to put on us!
Why? Why is it always us who are injured by the Sea Clan, but it is always the Feather Clan who is gained?
Now that Ishar wants to take command of our fleet, who knows if she's trying to trap us all in Proxima Centauri? ”
Hearing these righteous indignant words, the other two could only continue to be silent.
Gustav's rebellion not only brought a huge prestige blow to the Sea Clan Legion, but even more terrifying, he would affect the future of everyone here.
Although a soldier brought out by a traitor will not be involved in the case, if he is not involved, it is inevitable that stricter political scrutiny and the scrutiny of the surrounding people will inevitably lead to a future promotion that will be several times more difficult than that of other colleagues.
Even for their own sake, they prefer to believe that Gustav died heroically rather than mutinied.
"But...... This may also be a deliberate discord by the enemy, the purpose of which is to disrupt the line of sight and provoke our relationship with the Feather Clan.
What's more, now that we are leaderless, and Ishar has preemptively announced the rebellion of His Excellency Gustav, we have no evidence at all to accuse Ishar of having a problem except for a warning message from Gustav.
According to the military regulations, we must now obey the command of His Excellency Ishar, and if we disobey the order at this time, and we will be investigated afterwards, I am afraid that we will all have to go to court-martial. ”
"This ......" the commander of the 1st Detachment also had a bitter face.
"I think we can nominally take Isar's command first, but secretly we need to be on guard!
If she really wants us to be one with all things, and she hides behind and reaps the benefits of the fisherman, then we can't do anything.
She is now the supreme commander, what will happen in the end, she is the person directly responsible, we are at most ineffective in combat, and we can completely blame the absence of the commander-in-chief, and the army's morale is unstable!
Now that the situation is unknown, Mingzhe is the best choice for the legion. The reticent commander of the Second Squadron suggested at this point.
"I'll just say that you guys are usually the most yin, and that's true! Ha ha! Good! Do as you say! ”
"Hmm...... I agree too! ”
The three of them hung up the communication, but their minds were a little confused......
Although they are unanimous, their true thoughts in their hearts are not for outsiders.
Officers who can do it at the rank of commander, no one will be a real fool, they all have their own ideas and guesses.
Some of these thoughts can be said, and some can only be buried in the heart!
One of the three was a diehard Gustav loyal, and if Gustav did defect, did he have a problem? Could it be another pawn that Gustav left in the army?
Nie Yun's previous intentional or unintentional provocation finally came to fruition, and an unfinished warning could trigger endless conjectures, but it was more effective than a long explanation!
Now the Sea Clan doesn't trust Ishaar, and Ishar also doesn't trust the Sea Clan, and the Sea Clan itself has begun to be suspicious of each other.
The entire corps was completely plunged into a serious crisis of confidence......
