Chapter 378: Freedom Square
In the endless darkness and deep space, a fleet of tens of thousands of spaceships of different sizes and shapes is sailing quietly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 infoThe fleet looks so dilapidated that some of the ship's hulls are broken, and a large amount of the internal structure is directly exposed in space. But almost everyone knows what kind of power this fleet has.
That's a huge force that the entire human civilization is afraid of. They have a resounding name, and that is...... Pirate fleet.
Of course, the pirate fleet was named to them by the fugitive government, and the members of the pirate group did not call themselves that, but they had another very nice name to call themselves, and they called themselves the Free Army, the army that fought for freedom, against the exploitation and oppression of the elites, hence the name of the Free Army.
After a military power has swelled to a certain stage, it will inevitably have a political program to guide its own progress. It doesn't matter what the political program is, what matters is that it can unite itself internally and can also be used for external propaganda.
The pirate group was transformed into a free army, and in their own propaganda, the pirates of the pirate group became fighters who fought to their deaths for freedom, for the salvation of the suffering majority of the people, and for the overthrow of the tyranny of the fugitive government. In the midst of the constant propaganda, many people even believed it, really thought that their lives had been sublimated, so they became more brave and fearless in battle. This caused a lot of trouble for the fugitive government's purge operation.
But there will always be awake people in a group. The upper echelons of the pirate group are not fooled by this theory, they know exactly what they want - the resources and population of the fugitive fleet, the technology, and the sheer number of ships.
Evans is also one of the sobers. Evans has spent a long time here since he was lured by the pirate syndicate under the pretext of "looking for a job". During this time, Evans lived carefully, or perhaps because of good luck, by now, Evans actually had a certain status - of course, the top is still not talkative, but at least, Evans has the opportunity to get close to the upper echelons of the pirate group.
Evans is now attached to the Führer's Guard Bureau and is a guard in the Fifth Detachment of the Third Column under the Guard Bureau. As the name suggests, the Führer's Guard is an agency responsible for keeping the top leaders of the pirate syndicate safe. Entering this institution is not easy, and pirates must possess great personal ability, coupled with a test of loyalty, and a certain amount of luck to become a member of this institution. This is corresponded to by extremely high welfare benefits.
Evans knew that he had to live, and only by surviving could he have a chance to return to human civilization and see his wife and son again. No matter how much suffering and torture he suffered in the midst of the pirate group, Evans never gave up on it. One by one, the same people who had been lured into the pirate group died one by one, and their bodies were thrown into space and turned into stones, but Evans survived until he was now a member of the Guard.
Evans is not at the top of the group, but Evans is also a sober person. The brainwashing theories preached by the pirate group had no effect on Evans, who was well aware that the so-called struggle for freedom was fake, and that the personal greed hidden behind this high-sounding was real.
But Evans doesn't have the ability to change it all. Evans did all he could to ensure his survival.
His wife and children are still waiting for him in the distance, and he ...... How can you die?
It was the brief time before the break, and Evans lay quietly in his bed, thinking quietly. Suddenly, the door of the lounge was opened, and the captain of the guard in a straight military uniform walked in, and subconsciously, the guards instantly got off the bed and stood in a neat row in front of the captain.
"Tomorrow the guards of the fifth detachment, that is, you, will take on the task of security for the leader." The captain said coldly, "Tomorrow morning at four o'clock, you will report to the flagship Liberty Square. The guards at Liberty Square will tell you the details of this security mission. ”
"Yes!" Evans and the rest of the guards agreed.
The captain of the guard left, and the guards returned to their beds once more. The lights went out a moment later, and even breathing began to be heard in the lounge, and it was clear that his teammates were asleep, but Evans couldn't.
"Freedom Square...... Evans silently muttered the name in his mind, his thoughts fluctuating, and he could not calm down, "Is it really going to start a full-scale war......
Evans knew that leaders would not go to Liberty Square if there was no grand event, but only when there were public speeches, honors, awards, and other activities. This is also illustrated by the fact that the event required security by an entire detachment of the Security Service.
And in the current situation, there is a grand event...... What kind of activities will it be other than giving pre-war mobilization speeches?
In recent times, friction between pirate groups and self-government has become more frequent, and there have been more than a dozen large-scale battles involving 10,000 warships alone, not to mention the small-scale battles. Evans, though only a guard, could sense something in the increasingly tense atmosphere.
Evans clearly knows that the self-government does not want the war to continue - they want to solve the cancer of the pirate group as soon as possible, and then focus on the escape and continuation of human civilization, and similarly, the pirate group does not want to continue the war for a long time, and the pirate group also wants to confirm its position through a large-scale battle, while stabilizing the interior, it also creates a deterrent to the fugitive government, so that it can free up its hands to develop the interior as soon as possible.
So, a big battle is inevitable. And the outcome of this large-scale battle is related to the future fate of both sides. If the self-government wins, the pirate group will decline and will inevitably be destroyed in the end, and if the pirate group wins, the self-government will have to accept the situation of equality between the two sides, and there will even be a danger that it will be gradually encroached upon by the pirate group.
Both sides are bound to win this battle. Evans didn't know what preparations were being made on the part of the self-government, only that Evans knew that the pirate group had mobilized almost all the forces it could for this battle.
Evans knew that this day would come sooner or later, but Evans did not expect this day to come so quickly.
The general trend of the world is like a rolling tide, unstoppable, as a small person, Evans can only go with the flow, following this rolling tide to the unknown future.
"Alas......" Evans let out a long sigh and fell asleep surrounded by a deep sense of powerlessness.
Early the next morning, the guards of the guard gathered together and arrived at the flagship port in a small ferry ship. The flagship of the Pirate Syndicate is a large ship, and it is the strongest of the pirate group by all means - it has the most firepower and defense, and it also has the most powerful maneuverability. Its combat power is even comparable to that of the fugitive government's "Human" spacecraft.
This is a behemoth with a murderous aura. Evans knows that it is the core of the entire pirate group, and the leader ...... It's the core of the core.
That majestic middle-aged man was not only the military leader of the pirate group, but also the spiritual leader of the pirates. It is precisely because of his existence that the pirate group can grow so strong in a short period of time, and it is precisely because of his existence that the fugitive government is so jealous of the pirate group.
And now, the security of the leader is the responsibility of his own detachment.
It's undoubtedly an exciting thing. At the very least, Evans' teammates were already flushed with excitement, and it was clear that they were thrilled to get up close and personal with the leader. But Evans didn't know what it was like, some nervous, some apprehension, some fear, at least not excitement and adoration.
I followed the guide all the way to Liberty Square, although it was still early, it was only five o'clock, but there were already many people gathered here. In addition to the crowd, there are many more instruments in the square, and a temporary stage has been erected. At the moment, people are busy arranging something on the stage.
This is clearly for the leader's upcoming public talk.
After handing over to the plaza guards, the guards began a security check of the entire Liberty Square. The temporary stage is the top priority of the inspection. Evans and his comrades meticulously inspected every corner of the stage to make sure there was no danger on the stage.
The meticulous examination lasted for several hours, and it was not until about 10 o'clock in the morning that the examination was over. At this moment, a large number of people have gathered on Freedom Square, and all the live media are ready to be in place. People are busy and excited, and you can see that people are excited to meet the leader soon.
At eleven o'clock, a motorcade stopped in the square, the doors opened, and a dignified middle-aged man stepped out. The atmosphere above the square reached its peak at this moment, and endless cheers swept through the square. Amid the cheers, the middle-aged man, with a warm smile, waved to the crowd and walked onto the stage.
Facing the speaker, the leader's speech begins.
"On behalf of our government, I would like to pay you the highest respect for the fighters who fought tirelessly for freedom!" (To be continued.) )
