Chapter 123: The Age of the Careerist (2)

George quietly pushed the Jacques casualty report aside in his hand: "That's exactly what he asked?"

In the magic image, Ramos replied respectfully, "Yes, Master George." There are no other words. ”

"It's up to you," said George, with a long sigh, "and it's no wonder that after being used for so long, how can there be no complaints? You tell him that I'll go see him myself as soon as the matter is over on Jacque's side. ”

"Yes, but there is something my subordinates don't understand. ”

Say. ”

"There are many unawakened powerhouses, why did you choose a mediocre person like him who has no strength and no reputation?"

"Half of it is chance and coincidence, and the other half is purely my personal bad taste and perverted psychology. What, no?"

"The subordinates don't dare. So, Jacques's casualty statistics, do you want to tell him?"

"Why not. He also participated in the plan of Farraken's Fury, are you afraid that he won't be able to think about it? He can't think of it......" George didn't say anything about the latter words, but just smiled.

Ramos was secretly frightened, George, it's really not soft to clean up his own people, but that's fine, only such a person is worthy of me Ramos to follow!

"Now that Jagenke has just been hit by a tsunami, it would be too inhumane to do so at this time, so the Valhalla plan has been postponed, and you wait for me to inform you. ”

"The subordinates don't understand. Now Jagenk is in chaos, and the main fleet has no time to rush back, so it is right to take advantage of his illness to kill him. ”

"Most of Jagenke's economic base has been destroyed by us, and now I'm going to dismantle their ruling clique. The big consortium is Jacque's cancer, and I want to eradicate this cancer completely!"

"Yes. ”

In the early hours of April 17, 1645, an unprecedented tsunami struck Jagenque.

The sea god swung his trident and with a light blow, three waves roared.

Waves come from the northeast at speeds of up to 800 kilometers per hour. With waves more than 10 meters high and a huge impact, neither buildings nor humans have any room for resistance in front of it.

Locals have not been exposed to a tsunami for more than 100 years, so they lack knowledge of tsunamis, let alone predicting that a tsunami is approaching from various precursors, or having a well-established tsunami warning system.

The floating islands northeast of Jagenke, both military and civilian, were spared and all perished at the bottom of the sea.

More than 41,000 people died, mostly children and the elderly, and 180,000 became refugees. All ports are closed. Seawater intrudes nearly 2 kilometers into the interior of the island. Two frigates were washed up in the sea on the street in front of the city hall building.

Overnight, Jacques became a city of refugees, and the once swaggering factory owners were now struggling to survive in the mud of the streets, stretching out desperate hands to demand a bite to eat from the hurried passers-by.

Governor Alfran went mad and called out to everyone who came to his door.

In the midst of the chaos, there was a knock on the door of the former governor of the opposition, Rusford.

Luxford was not at all surprised to see the visitor: "You may be seated, Mr. Hirsbender." ”

Hessbend was the deputy commander of Rusford's fleet at Jacques, who was later removed from his post for inaction during the Silver Pearl Harbor incident and replaced him with Nimitz, and is now in the same idle position as Rusford.

Hessbend got straight to the point: "Alfran has proven to be unable to lead us out of this difficult situation, are you ready, Mr. Luxford?"

Luxford's face was indifferent: "First, this is not in accordance with the rules, and second, to speak from the heart, such a mess will give anyone a headache if it is handed over." ”

"The mess sucks, I admit, but it's a pity for the innocent people. ”

"There are many people with prestige, such as General Nimitz and General Mosaria, and any one of them has a higher prestige than me, the loser of the election, and if they raise their arms, they will definitely respond in droves. ”

"Don't be kidding, General Nimitz was persecuted, escaped from Jagenke, and his whereabouts are now unknown. General Mosalia, it's impossible. ”

"Why? Although he didn't do much in the war, it was always good to be able to get back to the disaster relief in time. ”

"Then the question is, why don't you have much success? The strange thing is that this general who has not achieved much has sailed to the door of Stanford's house, why not take it in one go?"

"How can you be sure of winning a war?"

"Strategy and tactics aside, why is it that the tsunami is so close to his fleet that none of his capital ships are damaged, and only some of the ships of the sponsor army are unlucky?"

Rustford was surprised, "What do you mean by that?"

Hessbender looked righteous: "There is a suspicion that he has a relationship with Stanford. He spared Stanford, who used some kind of technology to cause a tsunami and help him bring his troops back to seize power. ”

This logic stunned Rushford, and he didn't even speak for a moment.

Hessbender smiled slightly: "I didn't believe it at first, but look at this communication record." ”

Rustford took it and looked at it, and said, "He foresaw the tsunami in advance?"

"Nearly an hour before the first wave reached port, you said how do you explain that if it wasn't for something shady with Stanford?"

The expression on Lu Sifu's face was very complicated, first shocked, then angry, then helpless, and finally, he actually smiled: "It's really pervasive, big consortium, big consortium! At this time, the most thought is actually to seize power!"

Hussbend got up, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, and looked out at the elegant and quiet garden: "What a beautiful morning view! Mr. Rushford, your private residence is in a good location, not in the other half of the city, which is already full of mud. Jagenke, prosperity is no more. However, this loss is not necessarily a bad thing. ”

"yes. For the first time in hundreds of years, Jagenke has achieved complete unification of administrative, financial, and military powers, and the big conglomerates can finally control all their resources and let go of their hands. Is it worth it?"

"Whether it's worth it or not, I don't know. At this moment, all I can say is each other. ”

"What do you mean?"

"Let the Yinzhu Harbor be attacked and sit idly by, and let the war between the aliens and humans expand, so as to ensure that the city is in a state of emergency, so as to pave the way for a third re-election of oneself - Mr. Luxford, am I right? This is really the age of careerists!"

Rustford sighed, "With such insight and judgment, Mr. Hirsbend, why didn't I discover your talent sooner?"

Hessbender also sighed: "It's a terrible and difficult thing to play stupid under a smart man like you, but fortunately, I survived." Moreover, for some things in the past, such as the Yinzhugang incident, I will also choose whether to continue to be stupid according to the situation. ”

"It seems that I have no choice, then," Luxford said, holding up his cup, "let's substitute coffee for wine, and toast this careerist's age." ”

"Please. ”

As the two sides slowly finished their luscious coffee, Luxford said, "However, there is still a big problem with our cooperation. ”

"Please. ”

"I don't think the military is going to be able to withstand the pressure from Stanford right now. ”

"Don't worry, Stanford's weird technology was brought by Dark, a power-hungry guy with a tight grip on his subordinates, and he recently eliminated the opposition within the Cult of the Dark God through a massive internal purge. There is no doubt that he is a very good leader, but what if he dies unexpectedly?"

Luxford's eyebrows raised, and he sighed: "I have to remind you and all the tycoons behind you that after the tsunami, Governor Duck of Stamford announced a unilateral truce as soon as possible, and sent a rescue fleet to help rescue the victims, if your subordinates are not perfect, then Jagenke will become synonymous with meanness and madness, and not only that, but it will also invite Stanford's crazy revenge!"

"Duck will definitely die, and so will the Assassins, and the mastermind behind it will be revealedβ€”of course, our ambitious General Mosaria who has come back with his troops to seize power. I can also tell you a detail, Matisse, a staff officer under General Mosaria, is one of our men. General Mosaria had already approved his assassination plan. Now, it is estimated that it has been done. ”

Luxford laughed out loud: "What a perfect plan!"

"yes, everything was perfect!"
