Chapter 25: The Man Who Delivered the Pillow (I)
“…… As the de facto leader of the African side, Char Murphy was the de facto leader of the African side. In the two years since Pierre took office, he has been in office on the battlefield one after another, and he has not shown the ability and level that an excellent general should show, and the ACA has been defeated in the European theater, not only falling into a war of attrition that is unfavorable to the ACA on the Alpine front, but also being played by Schiller, the commander-in-chief of the European theater of the Alliance, in the Battle of the Pyrenees. Pierre ......"

Somewhere in the Atlantic, beneath the rough seas, a huge submarine is silently gliding over the heads of deep-sea fish.
Char. Field Marshal Pierre, dressed in a brand new military uniform, stands in front of a cabinet of models of vintage weapons that cover almost all of the main ground combat weapons up to the middle of the 21st century, from the "Little Nomad" to the "M1A2".
At this time, the marshal was gently dusting a model of a T90 main battle tank with a brush, and he seemed to be in a good mood, even humming an unknown song softly.
"Sir, Major General Spencer has arrived."
Just as he was carefully brushing the barrel of the tank, suddenly the communicator on the table rang.
"Let him come directly to my office."
Char, who replied directly, placed the brush on the shelf next to him, then closed the cabinet door and tidied up his clothes.
Char's actual power has not increased much now compared to what it was before the coup, and has even shrunk a little - divisions within the ACA are inevitable, with South America and Africa controlled by conservatives and evolutionists respectively, although the two sides still have a selalient government and the necessary military and economic support remains as close as ever. But it is clear that this cannot last forever, as evidenced by previous secret talks between conservatives and allies in Greenland.
In the past 20 years, both the League and the ACA media have been shaping each other into an axis of evil, and the public's understanding is not something that can be changed overnight. Unless one side is hit hard, or there is a superweapon like nuclear weapons that can directly reverse the outcome of a war, nothing will come of peace talks.
However, this is not Char's concern, in fact, he does not care about the war between the League and the ACA, and the fundamental reason for the coup is because even if the ACA splits, he needs a force that is absolutely loyal to him - not the ACA.
It's a must-have part of his plan.
From the very beginning, Char had no intention of getting bogged down in political struggle. His vision is far higher than the boring political struggle with these boring human beings, and he has a higher purpose, which requires the power of human beings, but cannot be bogged down in human strife.
However, Char still dutifully fulfilled his task as the commander-in-chief of the three armies of the ACA, after all, he didn't want the ACA to perish so quickly, and it was a strategy to properly lengthen the alliance's front, and if he was completely beaten by the alliance, then his plan would not be able to carry out well.
"Bang bang bang-"
"Please come in."
"Sir."
Theodore. Spencer walked into the room. He gave Char a military salute and placed the metal box on Charl's desk.
"This is a virus sample. All other samples in Baghdad have been destroyed, and there will be no hidden dangers. Spencer said lightly, "I'll do it, don't worry." ”
"Very well," Char nodded slightly, "so that's fine." Thank you so much. ”
"It's my pleasure, sir." Spencer smiled slightly, then bowed slightly, "May the light of evolution shine on all mankind." ”
"You stay on Neptune for a while, just in time Zakaev isn't there. You don't have to worry about running into him. ”
Char stroked the metal box, then turned to sit on the table, looking at Spencer, "How's that, with Leviathan. Is Shia's cooperation still pleasant? ”
"I'll submit a report to you later." Spencer thought about it for a moment, then spoke, "In general, a tough TF is a tough TF, and anyone, even a strong TF, can't escape death if they don't know her hole cards. ”
"But her desire for money and killing is not pretended, and as a mercenary, she has a work ethic, and my first time with her was good...... However, such people should not be able to take it for their own use. ”
Spencer looked into Char's eyes and came to a conclusion, they both knew how much Kronos, who had tried to control Zì Xia, had suffered a big loss, so this was basically logical.
"I don't have that in mind, it's just that this kind of piece can often bring some ...... to our opponents Interesting obstacles. Char reached out and rubbed his chin lightly, then gave Spencer an answer.
"That's it, you go down first, I'll let you know if there's a new mission."
"Understood." Spencer saluted, then turned and walked out of the room.
"So...... It's time to get ready to get rid of some of the clud. ”
Charl watched Spencer leave, then turned to look at the box on the table, muttered to himself, and reflexively pressed the communicator.
"Sue sù Katie. Admiral Simmons, I'm going to listen to her plan for 'Plan T,' and I'll go to the staff headquarters in half an hour and ask her to prepare. ”
"Understood, sir."
Char turned off the communicator, then lifted the metal box on the table, tugged on his large-brimmed hat, and turned and walked out of the office.

"Your Excellency, the 'Darwin' group welcomes you."
Char walked into the staff room, and the moment the electronic door closed, Char saw the girl kneeling on one knee.
"It's a pity Marshall isn't there, otherwise you'd have been thrown out of the sluice gate for the fifth hundred and twenty-third time." Char shook his head helplessly, walked around the girl on the ground, and walked directly to the map table, "Get up." ”
"Yes."
The girl, who was on one knee, stood up, and in the bright light, she was about 18 years old, dressed in an ACA general's uniform with the rank of fourth-class general. The purple hair is tied into a double ponytail, hanging down at the back of the head, and the pretty face is very eye-catching, and a tear mole at the corner of the eye is very eye-catching.
But the most eye-catching thing is probably a pair of golden, shiny pupils.
Katie. Simmons. The captain of the ACA's Unity Eye's top-authority covert group, Darwin, was, in Charr's words, "a man of great character."
Of course, if Marshall, who is still alive, evaluates it, it is probably "an overage middle and second disease".
Strictly speaking, such comments are unfair to Katie, because Katie is not really immature, but just subconsciously has strong imitation and performance delusions, which is a mental illness. However, considering TF's bizarre psychological and physical illness, this kind of thing is obviously harmless.
Katie had served for several years as a secret intelligence officer at the Eyes of Unity, and later at the Neptune Senior Military Academy, so Charr did not let her participate in the 2178 program.
After graduating with honors, Katie became one of Charr's rare well-bred descendants, and was known as the "Three-Headed Dog of Hell" along with Spencer and Zakaev. In addition to the strong ability of the meat system, she also has excellent strategic and tactical analysis skills. As a result, he was much higher in rank than the other two, and had more access to Charl's plans.
And the reason why Char trusts her so much is that in addition to her ability, there are some deeper reasons.
"So, can we get started? Your Excellency the Führer. ”
"Wait." Char took off his military hat and placed it on the map table, "Change that title, you were forbidden to call 'sir' last month, and this month you have become the Führer again." Do you want me to introduce you to another psychiatrist? ”
"This is the result of careful consideration by the lower officials, Your Excellency, 'Führer' is the abbreviation of the elder and first citizen of the country, and I believe this is the most suitable title for you."
Katie exudes no less seriousness in this kind of thing than when she made a strategic plan, causing Char to shake her head helplessly.
"Anyway, don't call it that in front of me, it's an order."
"Your Excellency understands, Sir."
Char breathed a sigh of relief, not going to continue correcting Katie's claims, he waved his hand and signaled to begin.
Katie walked over to the map table, put her right hand on her chest and saluted Char again, then opened the map table.
"Has the city decided?"
Char spoke bluntly.
"We have three alternative cities, and we have the virus load on hand to cover two of them."
Katie, who has entered serious mode, doesn't have so many strange names, titles, and mantras, and she has to give two cities bluntly like any good ACA staff officer.
"Prague, San Salvador and ...... Ho Chi Minh City? Char looked at the map and spoke in thought.
"Prague is the only Allied city we can successfully infiltrate, and although it is some distance from the actual control line, the lower creatures of the Alliance can't stop us." Katie smiled coldly, and then looked at the other two cities, "Ho Chi Minh City is a free trade zone, and in principle, releasing the virus will destroy the tacit understanding between the two sides of the war, so although it has a large population and developed transportation, we do not recommend it." ”
"In addition, if San Salvador is chosen, there is also the advantage that conservative forces are currently deliberately abandoning the city, if we choose the right time, hehehehe......"
Katie suddenly laughed gloomily, but immediately corrected herself, then apologized.
"I'm sorry, sir."
"It's fine." Char shook his head, he is not a pretentious person himself, not to mention that Katie's problem is a mental illness, and it is not something that can be changed.
"That's Prague and San Salvador." Char tapped his finger lightly on the map table, and then nodded, "You should have a good idea of the specific details of the operation and the candidates, right?" ”
"There are still some problems in terms of candidates." Katie replied truthfully, her tone full of regret, "We don't have many reliable people in our hands, after all, the virus is not complicated from the perspective of genetic engineering, and once it falls into the hands of the Alliance, the consequences are unimaginable." ”
"That's right." Char nodded, and then made a straightforward deployment, "Let our people go to San Salvador to ensure that there are the best real effects and observation records in El Salvador, as for Prague, directly arrange a group of people and let Ling Yu help us remove the burden." ”
"Get rid of the cumbersome...... What do you mean, Your Excellency? ”
"That's right, it's almost time to make Marven. It's time for Greg to atone for what he's done. ”
Char propped up the map table with both hands and smiled coldly, "He wants to be a god, so we will send him to heaven." ”
"I have an idea, you can memorize it, and then refine the details."
Char turned around, raised his hand and touched his chin, and then spoke, "Prague's operation, put it on the central database with low encryption permissions, so that the spies of the alliance will pass this news to Ling Yu's ears and lead him to Prague, Prague's operation as a whole uses mercenaries, our people are responsible for the delivery and release of the virus, the battlefield commander hands it over to Zakaev, the order principle is to adopt a conservative mode, and all virus containers are equipped with concealed thermite destruction devices, It is better not to release it than to ensure that the virus does not fall into the hands of the Alliance. ”
"Then, let Zakaev lead a special team, 'coincidentally' carrying the relevant information about Marven's location and deployment, arrange the location of the special force in Prague, and then disguise it as the commander of the team, so that Ling Yu will focus on Zakayev, and then Zakaev can play on the spot."
"Your Excellency, there is a bit of a problem with the execution." Katie closed her eyes and pondered for a moment, then frowned, "What if Ling Yu concentrates on dealing with the virus and ignores the Einsatzgruppen?" ”
"Don't worry, as long as we let Ling Yu be there, Ling Yu will definitely chase the Einsatzgruppen instead of the virus." Char smiled coldly, "I'm sure, don't worry." ”
"Do as you will."
Katie bowed slightly, and the model of Prague on the map table was still spinning slowly. (To be continued......)
