Chapter 159: Resignation
More than ten huge excavation machines roared, and the surrounding light stone lamps shone brightly as day, and the construction site was full of people.
The ruins of the original Holy Mosque have been dug out of a large pit more than ten meters deep, which is not enough, and it is necessary to continue digging, and the road to the black prison must be opened before noon tomorrow.
Around the pit, twenty war puppets were waiting for them, and there were heavy infantry guards beside them; thirty-six magic guide cannons were lined up in a half-moon shape, condescendingly, and the muzzles of the black holes were aimed at the bottom of the pit; beside them, the dense magic guide circuits of the monitoring circle flickered, painting all the troops with blue light.
Don't even think about flying a fly!
The two suspects, Mansour and Aladdin, are too arrogant!
In order to vent his anger, he brutally assassinated the Viceroy of Ibn Khaldun, and dared to blatantly claim that he was under the Black Prison, which is a provocation to the entire city!
The city hall held an emergency meeting overnight to discuss countermeasures again. Once again, it was agreed that immediate action should be taken against the Black Prison and that the two most heinous perpetrators must be brought to justice.
Saron, the secretary of the chief of staff, once again objected, that there was no direct evidence that these two men were the murderers, and that they should be further investigated to avoid accidentally injuring innocent people, and since they said that they were not afraid to come to investigate, it means that they were fully prepared, and they were likely to suffer unnecessary losses if they rushed into the black cell, so they should first adopt the method of negotiation, and perhaps a peaceful solution could be achieved - even if it did not work, at least they should be deceived out of the black prison.
This time, Saron was reprimanded in the harshest terms, believing that his views were too lenient and that the enemy should be eliminated cleanly and completely.
Salong also did not admit defeat, and he made three points.
First, the people's hearts are fluctuating and the situation is unstable, if these two people are undoubtedly the murderers, it is fine, but if they are not, it will inevitably seriously damage the image of the city hall in the hearts of the people.
Second, the problem of the poor girls in the black prison has been dragging on, without giving the people a reasonable explanation, and now the use of force to attack is too easy to give the people the impression that "the city hall is destroying the evidence".
The third, and most dangerous, is the City Guard!
Since the assassination of Ibn al-Haldun, they have been subjected to unjust abuse and attacks, and they have resentment. Moreover, the City Guard has a tradition of mutiny.
As early as when the Holy Mosque monopolized power and ordered the City Guard to suppress the demonstrators, the City Guard stood with the people, and on the night of the book burning, the City Guard refused to carry out the order and fought back, becoming an important force for the overthrow of the Holy Mosque. If the performance of the town hall does not satisfy them, and the captain Selim cannot hold the field, then ......
Now Mansur and Aladdin are not going anywhere else, they are going to the black prison alone, it is very likely that these two things will be pinched together, once the public opinion changes, the city guard mutiny, there is no lamp god, who can withstand the crushing of the war puppet with flesh and blood!
Speaking of excitement, Saron slapped the table.
This move made a bunch of heads and brains angry.
What kind of thing are you?
The chief of staff's secretary, secretary!
You only have the power of the counselor to plan and make suggestions, without the slightest real power, and you only have a false position with face but no inside, and being able to speak at a meeting is enough to give you face, and you actually question the decision of the collective?
Act recklessly!
Governor Kadar immediately made the decision to dismiss Sarong from all duties, to a fine of one month, to return home for reflection, and not to return to the town hall until he had been called up.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Saron has committed public anger, and his career is basically over.
However, as Saron, the mad dog who stabbed four people on the night of book burning, how could he be soft!
"Gentlemen, I know your thoughts, to stabilize the situation in a simple and rude way, so that you can take the position, and by the way, clean the black prison thoroughly and wash your ass, right?"
Saron glanced around, and as it happened, his eyes finally fell on his immediate boss and chief of staff, Aqimu.
Aqimu stood up and shouted angrily: "Salong, you are crazy!"
Seeing that his boss was angry, Salong's tone softened suddenly, and he smiled: "No, Lord Aqimu, don't get me wrong, I'm not targeting you, I mean...... All of you here are garbage. ”
Everyone was stupefied by the wild words. It's crazy to talk to the whole bureaucracy?
Saron smiled contemptuously: "Arbitrarily rude, fierce and cunning, indiscriminately killing innocents, how are you worthy to be the shepherd of Nehel? I, Sarong, am a man who stands up to the heavens and the earth, and I am ashamed to be in the company of you corpse vegetarians!
As he spoke, Saroon looked up to the sky and laughed three times, kicked open the door of the conference room, and slammed the door away.
A large group of guards had already gathered at the door, and they heard everything inside. Looking at Saron's gaze, it was simply adoring.
Walking out of the gate of the city hall, two cronies immediately greeted him: "My lord, how is it?"
Saron smiled: "Get out smoothly." Why, it's a pity?"
"Yes, we think it's really ...... if the current official doesn't do it, he has to start from scratch."
"Sometimes one step back is to take two steps forward, rest assured, three days at most, the city of Nehr, will be in our hands!"
The tunneling machinery is still struggling to excavate, the cruel angel was too powerful at the beginning, the stratum was pierced, nearly 100 meters of soil was squeezed together by the huge force, the mille-feuille became gnocchi, and it was certainly not so easy to dig up.
In fact, the people at the town hall didn't expect to dig through directly with such a stupid method, it was just a means to attract the attention of the enemy. The real killer move, the commando team is already in place.
A team of twelve people is assembling at the home of the former town hall clerk Bethscher.
An entire wall in the study was torn down to reveal a large mezzanine with an upward wooden cellar door underneath. There are a lot of thick wooden strips nailed horizontally and vertically on the wooden door. It seems that the owner who excavated this cellar was a law-abiding citizen, and he knew that he accidentally dug through the black prison and decisively sealed it.
Lifting off the wooden bar, the entrance to the Hessian tunnel, opened.
The captain tore the strip of cloth and lit it and threw it down, the strip of cloth danced faintly and the fire was not extinguished, the captain nodded and motioned for the team to go down. The players rushed in.
The tunnel is relatively spacious, which can accommodate two people in parallel, and the ground is also level, and the two of them walk in front with light stone lamps.
One person complained: "There is money to level the ground, but there is no money to light the lamp, this Lord Bai Sher is really good at spending money." ”
Another said: "I don't understand, this kind of escape tunnel, no lights are allowed without emergency." ”
"Why?"
"Because the tunnels in the lords' homes are used to prevent xenomorphs. Once the xenos break into the city, this is the last way to save their lives, the xenos have a keen sense, and once they are discovered, they are dead. How obvious it is to light up in the dark. ”
"It's been more than three hundred years, when have xenos ever entered the city?"
"I don't understand again, because we have lamp gods and war golems. But now......"
"What now?"
"We're going to take out the only lamp god and the ace puppet technician. If the aliens attack, do you want us to cut them with knives and guns?"
Everyone who heard it sighed. But the task is the task, bite the bullet, ignore the conscience, go on!
