Chapter 504: Innocent Scapegoat
"The attack of the New Kane Clan has crossed the KH878 node of the 36th Passage, and the Clan is currently mobilizing troops to drive the invaders out of the city...... The Inner Rim Galactic Alliance was negotiating overnight, and the representatives of the New Card Inner League announced that they would not accept the mediation of the Alliance Federation, and withdrew from the voting table during the afternoon pre-vote...... The Sinclair clan declared its neutrality, which they considered an internal affair and said that they would not interfere or take sides...... The Handington Clan has declared its unconditional support for us, saying that they have discovered that the fleet of the New Kane Nation threatens the security of their domain, and that they want to enter into a mutual defense alliance with us......"
The television signal was unstable, but the staccato images and sound clips conveyed a striking message – war had broken out and the New Kane League had waged war against the Borghetti League. Although the people of the 507 Guards were mentally prepared for this, such a quick outbreak was still beyond their expectations. There was an uproar in the non-commissioned officer's cafeteria, and everyone scolded, the New Kane Clan Alliance broke the peace of the inner rim galaxy for thousands of years, and they would be the sinners of history.
"Looks like we forced them to do it." Nax had a point, because of the surprise attack of the 507 Guards, the New Kane Clan had to start a war in advance, and the suddenness of the war was one of the certainties of their victory.
"It's terrible, it's all hit the 36th channel." Amid the angry invectives of the crowd, Aizalo said heavily. The New Kane Alliance's blitzkrieg had the desired effect, and their stealth skills gave them the upper hand. The Borghetti clan was defeated and lost large swaths of territory early in the war.
"It doesn't matter, with our record, the clan alliance will soon turn the situation around. Listen to what else is said on TV. ”
The TV signal has been bad, however, this news is too important to be broadcast on a rolling basis.
"The treacherous New Kane League, who call themselves the Empire, and their archon Ristilfa was officially proclaimed Emperor yesterday. Changed the New Kane Alliance to the New Kane Empire. Their ambitions have been exposed, and they are sinners of humanity...... This morning, the Confederation reiterated its condemnation of such behaviour by the New Kane League. However, the spokesman of the Substitute Repair Federation referred to the New Kane Clan as the New Kane Empire, which he later defended as a slip of the tongue, but observers believe that the Substitute Repair Federation is no longer able to control the situation at hand. They are becoming less and less binding on substitutes. They are compromising...... There was information that the members of the New Kane League had met with the top management of the Substitute Repair Federation, but this news was denied by the Substitute Repair Federation......"
Nax sighed: "If they don't do anything, why don't they do anything?" ”
"Only on our own can we defeat the invaders. I firmly believe that! Aizalo nodded firmly. He was a patriot and never wavered.
"It looks like the sky has changed. The largest Sinclair League seems to be neutral, and the Handington League may be able to form an alliance with us. Is this a total war? ”
"Already, I can't think of a year, so the clan alliance will be involved in this war. Perhaps only the Blue Alliance in the central galaxy. ”
"Yes, the invasion of the insect tide is their time. Their isogeneous exocarapaces can protect them from the attack of the abundant butterfly insects, and they are riding the fire. Nax said indignantly. The New Kane League's approach made him despised.
"I know the truth, but who cares?" Aizalo shook his head: "They can even play the role of saviors. History is written by the winners, and they don't care about that. ”
Nax and Aizalo discussed in a low voice, when suddenly, someone shouted
"Look! What about us? ”
Everyone's eyes were attracted by this voice, and they wanted to know what kind of hero they would be evaluated as.
"It's us, it's really us. At the forefront is our 12th Mecha Brigade! Someone shouted excitedly.
A battle scene appears in the video. The people of the 12th Mecha Brigade recognized that this was the first battle they fought in a long run. It was a nice and perfect raid. Caught the people of Xinkanai off guard, and brutally beat one of the imperial divisions in Xinkanei into a daze, and even the flagship was knocked out.
"It doesn't seem like we took it, so why is the camera angle a little weird?" Some people saw that it was weird, this video looked like it was taken by the new Kanes, but why did they show this video? Is it a glorious thing to lose face?
At this moment, the narration on television appeared: "The New Kane Nation has shown evidence that we have attacked them, and they believe that we started the war, and what they are doing now is only self-defense." Now, the allied military has denied this claim. The 507 Guards who appear in the video acted without authorization, and the Clan Alliance is investigating the reasons for the 507 Guards' unauthorized actions, and the military top brass has hinted that the 507 Guards were instructed to do so by some hostile forces. The infiltration of hostile forces into us has never stopped, and the military will deal with these traitors with thunderous means......"
Everyone was stunned, the word "traitor" sounded so harsh, this word was too far from the meaning of heroes, they threw their blood for their own clan, but now someone actually called them "traitors", which is an unacceptable evaluation.
The entire non-commissioned officer cafeteria was roaring, and the entire 507 Guards was expressing indignation at this slander. Chu Ming finished eating the last little thing, walked away slowly, and quietly left in the excitement of the crowd, he had to talk to General Pross, he wanted to know the inside story of the Borgeti Alliance, he had to know what his efforts would bring? If this is the end, he can only choose to leave.
Without much effort, Chu Ming met General Pross. General Prows was also watching TV, and he knew that he had been deceived, and that the attitude of the clan alliance towards them was actually known from TV, and that the 507 Guards had been isolated, and the reasons were complex and simple.
"Don't ask me about loyalty and betrayal, I can answer you for anything else." General Pross was rarely patient, he looked at Chu Ming with a trace of sadness in his eyes.
"As a result, I want to know the results of the Dao Dao, and I want to know what the Dao Clan Alliance will do to us?" Chu Ming's question was very direct, there was no need for him to beat around the bush.
"Probably a scapegoat. The current situation is quite unfavorable to the Clan, so the Clan must silence others. Our results are so great that people are jealous, so some people are very happy to see this result. ”
"Who is the scapegoat?"
"Me, or us."
"And then?"
"The 507 Guards will disappear, and the fighters will be disbanded and regrouped. For the military, this is a small loss in exchange for a bigger gain. "General Pross didn't hide it at all, he didn't want to hide it.
"And then?"
"Then there is war, and whether we plead guilty or not, the New Kane Clan will not stop their hegemony. If our confession can bring precious respite to the clan, then our grievances are worth it. ”
"Fart!" Chu Ming scolded unceremoniously: "Don't lie to yourself, if there is any excuse, the New Kane Clan Alliance will attack the same." We are not calculated by the enemy, we should be calculated by our own people, am I right? ”
"Yes." After a moment of silence, General Pross nodded: "I can even tell you who it is, it is the co-chairman who left, Murphylin, and behind him is the military minister of the clan alliance, Grand Duke Zaganata. His son, you should know, is Viscount Banaharu. ”
"What kind of faction are you?" Chu Ming was not surprised, but asked another question.
"Speaker Sylvanas in the House of Lords is my teacher."
"What about her political views?"
"Radical conservatives, advocating the use of force to guarantee peace. At times, she behaved too violently, so many people thought she had something to do with the radicals. ”
"Well, at least I know I'm the good one."
Chu Ming lit a cigarette, he took a deep breath, then slowly exhaled, and then continued to ask
"Tell me everything for Lu?"
"Please keep your promise."
"I'm just saying I won't endanger the 507 Guards, but I don't want to be a savior. And why do you think I can do it? ”
"So, I hope you can promise that this is a request." General Pros was thinking more in his heart, and the Deep Blue Divine Sect behind Chu Ming was the reason why General Pros chose Chu Ming. He had always thought that Chu Ming was a "Seal Sectist", and he wanted to prepare for the worst for his troops.
"Okay, I'll try to do it." Chu Ming agreed, he knew that no one could stay out of this war, and the promise at this moment was also planning for himself, for the friends and relatives of Kellaran.
A smile appeared on General Pross's face, he seemed to be happy, slowly buttoned the collar of his uniform, and said easily: "Okay, our special adviser staff officer. The bad news is that Co-Chairman Murphylin will take over my place in the afternoon, and he and I will be present at the handover ceremony. If he and I are both delayed on the road, then you and my two staff officers will be in charge of the troops, a request that has been agreed to by the higher-ups. Have a nice trip. ”
"You want to be that scapegoat? Forget it, it's not worth it. Chu Ming pursed his lips and persuaded him.
"How can you be a scapegoat if you haven't been convicted yet?" General Pros smiled, he glanced at Chu Ming meaningfully, and then resolutely walked out.
No matter how unfair the officers and men of the 507 Guards felt, the order from the top of the Bolgeti League was given. Co-Chairman Murphylin will succeed General Pross as Acting Commander of the 507th Guards. His next step is to find out the "traitors" in the 507 Guards, and his arrival will set off a bloody storm. The 507 Guards will not only not be able to receive the rewards that will be applied, but will also become a victim of political struggle, what a helpless fact!
