Chapter 172: Letter from the Tokyo Concession (3)
(If the new subscription can break 1,002, I will add 10,000 words tomorrow!) οΌ
Shortly after Karen's contact with the mysterious man.
In the conference room of the Tokyo Concession Consulate, Ling Yi was pondering.
"The police station was attacked by unknown terrorists a few days ago, and it can be seen from the photos taken by surveillance cameras that the weapons they used were automatic rifles and grenades produced by the Chinese Federation. Although the lethality and accuracy are not high, it is easy to carry. According to previous intelligence, it is highly likely that this group of people is a 'guerrilla' in the country. β
Guilford stood next to the screen and explained in detail the terrorist attacks that had taken place a few days ago.
By the way, this room is located deep underground in the Consulate.
A temporary operational command built specifically to evade air raids by other countries.
In this heavy meeting room, more than a dozen high-ranking members of the ruling army of the eleventh district were gathered.
According to common sense, Ling Yi is not qualified to participate in a meeting of this level.
However, the death of Governor Cornelia has once again caused a wave of turmoil for the ruling army of District 11. Pension for the families of the deceased, military assignments, official public speeches, etc., countless troubles all fell on Yuphemia's head, who made her the deputy governor, and the governor's absence was naturally up to her.
However, as a canary-like princess, Yuphimia knew almost nothing about these things, and coupled with the tragic death of her sister, she finally fell ill under great pressure.
Before losing consciousness, she granted Ling Yi the right to act as an acting consul in the name of the acting governor.
Despite the suddenness of the incident. But after all, Ling Yi has the rank of major, and he also has the honorary knight medal equivalent to the knight marquis. In Britannia, nobility is always more powerful than military rank, and even if some people are disgruntled, they can only complain secretly.
As for Ling Yi, his idea was simple.
- Trouble that cannot be shirked.
Recently, not only the media has hyped up, but even the country has begun to exert pressure.
That's all there is to it, and the most unpleasant thing is that even the Federal Republic of China has come to the ground, and the police station attack case a few days ago. It was clearly from the guerrillas.
Therefore. It was a thoroughly military meeting here.
"Not only that, but there has also been information recently that many terrorist organizations have received arms support from the Chinese Federation. Although we have tightened immigration controls, they have too many helpers. It is impossible to completely eradicate it. β
"What about the sources of funding for terrorists? It is impossible for the Chinese Federation to provide them with weapons free of charge. β
Dalton asked in a deep voice.
Guilford's lenses seemed to have a glint of light.
"Although there is no definite evidence. But judging by me. The source of funding should be in Japan. Some time ago in Siberia, there was a conflict with the Chinese Federation, which led to a deterioration in relations, and I think this is the reason why the Chinese Federation intervened. β
"That's what I said. In the end, is it really the guys in Kyoto who are behind the scenes? β
"So, our first problem is to cut off their funding sources as quickly as possible, right?"
The first to speak out was one of the senior military officers.
"As long as the source of funding for terrorists is stifled, there will be no room for the Chinese Federation to intervene."
As soon as these words came out, Dalton shook his head.
"If you act rashly without evidence, I am afraid that it will have the opposite effect, and even attract public opinion counterattacks from the other side. At that time, the Federal Republic of China will not just sit and watch the theater, and it will be their usual trick to hold on to other people's pigtails under the banner of 'maintaining international order.' β
"But there has also been news recently that Kyoto has begun to make contact with the Black Knights."
After hearing this, Ling Yi, who had been listening silently, finally had a hint of reaction.
"Since there is no conclusive evidence, this cannot be relied upon. At least on the surface, those guys still approve of our rule in Britannia. β
Dalton still stands by his opinion.
At this time, Guilford, who served as the moderator of the meeting, threw the topic to Ling Yi.
"Does Major Velvett have a different opinion?"
Seeing that the eyes of the others were also cast, Ling Yi put his chin in his hands and said 'um', and said:
"My opinion is that all the old guys in Kyoto should be arrested as soon as possible."
"Even you say that? Major Velvet. β
Dalton looked disgruntled.
"As the acting consul, you should know the consequences of this matter best, and rash action will only send our handle to the other party."
"So what?"
While Dalton was still angry, Ling Yi continued:
"In my opinion, whether they are genuinely subject to Britannian rule or not, they should not ignore such a large economic bloc. As the saying goes, how can we allow others to snore next to the couch, even if they stay honestly and do nothing, but do we really not have to worry about them? β
As soon as these words came out, everyone present fell silent.
No one refuted.
Ling Yi said the fact that none of them wanted to mention. Because Britannia is a strong country, a strong country must have the demeanor of a strong country, since people have surrendered, they naturally can no longer kill innocents indiscriminately, but who can guarantee that these survivors will not rebel at a critical moment?
To put it mildly, they are too concerned about face.
However, Ling Yi was different from them, he had never regarded himself as a soldier, he had always acted according to his own principles. Do what you have to do, and at the same time, you can make the enemy unable to find the slightest flaw.
It's the same right now.
"Kyoto has always been a problem with the heart, and this is the opportunity to cut down the roots and completely dismantle the economic bloc. This will also help the governance of District 11. β
Ling Yi's eyes were cold, and his tone was unquestionable.
"I admit you have a point, but I still disagree, and I won't agree with this plan unless you have hard evidence of it."
Dalton said in a deep voice. He is not rigid as a soldier, but he is calm. If you don't have a great deal of certainty, you will never do it.
"I agree with General Dalton."
Guildford spoke.
Others hesitated.
"Evidence?"
Ling Yi chuckled, a different color flashing across his eyes.
"Who stipulates that evidence must be found from the other party?"
"Wait, what do you mean? Are you sure? β
Dalton thought of something, and his face changed.
"Of course, I don't like to do things that I'm not sure about. Moreover, controlling public opinion is not the preserve of the other side. Don't say it's true, even if there is no such thing, I can keep them speechless. β
Yes, if there is no evidence, then create evidence.
There's so much gossip anyway. All sorts of gossip. Coupled with the influence of the Britannian army, where does a group of rats who can only hide in the shadows have the confidence to be tough?
After a while, the dissenting participants, led by Dalton and Guilford, finally agreed with Ling Yi's plan.
As a result, a complete set of operational plans appeared.
After the dissolution of the meeting. Everyone left the room. Only Ling Yi was left sitting alone in the first place. Tilting his head and closing his eyes, he didn't know what Lu Dao was thinking.
"Is the meeting over?"
Suddenly, a voice came from overhead.
Even if he didn't open his eyes, Ling Yi knew who Lu Dao was.
"Although I would love to inform you that you are late. But I'm curious about how you're doing? β
"Well, the doctor said that he was able to move freely."
Euphemia, dressed in a pink dress, found a chair and sat down, her beautiful face was slightly pale, and it could be seen that she was not very in good spirits.
"βBut, you can't overwork it, can you?"
Ling Yi added for her.
"Well, it doesn't matter."
Yufemia's expression froze, and she puffed out her face.
"Anyway, haven't you already thrown me a bunch of troubles? Then peace of mind. β
"Of course, your words won't disappoint me, will you?"
Euphemia smiled.
"I can't say for sure."
Ling Yi said casually.
The reason why the girl in front of him is lying on the hospital bed is actually his responsibility.
Magic hypnosis is no, if you have to say it, it's a kind of sΓ©ance.
A few days before the Battle of Narita, he had planted a technique in Yuphimia. Strictly speaking, that technique is still in the testing stage, after all, it is a new technique developed by mixing the control mode of the Moon Spirit Essence with the 'Duality Theory of Spiritual Matter' of the Spirit Spirit.
The general effect of that technique is to set a temporary personality in advance.
Once activated, it will replace the original personality for a short period of time.
As for the greatest usefulness of this technique, I am afraid that it is counter-reconnaissance, lurking, assassination, and the like.
This procedure will bring a certain mental burden to the user, and the sequelae will be fed back to the body. Euphemia will fall ill, which is partly to blame.
However, Ling Yi was now able to further refine this technique.
Because of the battle of Narita Renshan, the gains brought to him were too great.
As the inheritor of a mythical heritage that gathered countless terrifying gods, Ling Yi finally opened the door depicting mysterious patterns in his body after devouring the aether of the Unknown Dao.
And then
He noticed that there was another door behind the door.
At that time, Ling Yi almost lost his cool
Thankfully, it's not for nothing.
In fact, the magic corridor in his body is the 'key', and the key must be charged to open the door.
What was behind the next door, he didn't know.
But this time, what he got was satisfying.
- Huge amount of knowledge.
It's even comparable to a library.
Spells, spells, rituals, and legends were full of mysterious words, and the words were like snowflakes flying in his mind.
Although it does not exist in reality, that spectacular scene can only be enjoyed by Ling Yi alone.
However, this time was a bit busy, and I didn't have time to study the things that could be called 'treasures'.
Ling Yi was trying to send Yufermia away, looking for a secret ritual that could be used, although there were many restrictions on spells of this level, but once mastered, it was definitely no worse than the deterrent power of ICBMs.
But at this moment, Yufermia suddenly remembered something, took out a letter and handed it to Ling Yi.
"By the way, this letter was just delivered to the governor's office by the secretary, and it seems to have been addressed to you, but the name of the sender is really strange. I guess it's from the Chinese Federation. I thought it must be a friend of Velvet or something, so I helped get it. (To be continued......)
