Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Fuse
Bang bang bang......
Brilliant fireworks illuminate Kareni, and the whole city seems to start a harvest celebration.
To the eyes of ordinary civilians, this may be a pre-banquet cheer for the nobles, but in the eyes of Kareni's countless spies in the United Kingdom, these fireworks are a symbol of urgency.
City-wide warning.
Just like the beacon tower on the border line, once wolf smoke rises in one place, then wolf smoke will also rise in the adjacent place at the same time, and then spread ten to hundreds, hundreds to tens of millions, and finally achieve the effect of early warning.
The same goes for fireworks warnings.
When fireworks are set off at this contact point in the slums, then the adjacent contact points will also instantly release fireworks, and then advance layer by layer, so that all the spy contact points understand that the entire Kareni spy system is experiencing an unprecedented crisis.
Boom, boom, boom.
Kareni seems to have fallen into a carnival, with houses, restaurants, and abandoned houses everywhere...... Suddenly, a raging fire broke out, and the spy contact points that had not yet been purged did not have time to transfer the information, but directly destroyed the information by incineration.
At this moment, everyone in the regiment headquarters turned white.
It's just nightfall, and there are still four and a half hours until 23:59, and according to incomplete statistics, there are still 2/3 of the contact points that have not been cleaned, but as soon as this signal is issued, their raid plan is useless.
What is the Great Purge, what is one that does not remain.
The regiment headquarters was afraid that there would be fish in the contact point who would slip through the net and secretly report to other contact points, so they finally issued this extremely cruel order to kill the wrong person and not let it go.
But now the order is no longer working.
Everywhere the contact points have begun to ignite flames, and the intelligence has long been burned away, this major mistake will be completely smashed on their heads, and now not to mention the promotion and wealth, whether they can keep their military status has become a problem.
"Check!
The regimental commander Ganser Burton glared at the blood-red eyes and roared: "Which contact point in charge of the rice bucket caused the mistake, I must send him to the gallows before the military department executes me!"
At this time, Adjutant Char also rushed here.
He panted and stood up and saluted: "Report to the regiment commander, the big thing is not good, a major general is blocking the Viga company commander from carrying out the purge mission, the Viga company commander resolutely carries out the order and swears not to retreat, the two sides are deadlocked, the major general bluntly said that you want you to come forward to explain in person." ”
"Major General?"
A trace of doubt flashed in the eyes of the regiment commander and chief of staff, they didn't have much fear, as long as this mission was explained clearly, then no one would definitely stop him, after all, everyone was for the future of the empire.
At the same time, the two also admired Vega's performance.
When encountering generals, they must resolutely carry out their orders, and this alone is enough to win the favor of the two of them, who does not like to be loyal to their subordinates, Vega's performance is enough to be a model for soldiers and a model for officers.
"Sergeant, lead the way. ”
Regiment Commander Ganse temporarily put aside the irritability of the failure of the mission, he planned to meet the major general who suddenly appeared, although it could only be said to be a guess, but his sixth sense told him that the failure of this combat mission was directly related to this major general.
If it is really the fault of the major general......

Meanwhile.
Kaleni Government Building, inside the Office of the Law Enforcement Team.
A middle-aged man in a law enforcement uniform stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, stunned as he watched the fireworks rise into the air.
He is Bruno Valen, the head of the Careni General Directorate of Law Enforcement, and his command has a total of more than 10,000 members of the law enforcement team, which is also the most powerful armed force in the whole of Kareni outside of the army, and they serve in the Kareni system of government.
"I didn't expect the army to purge Kareni at this time. ”
Looking at the fireworks rising in the sky outside the window, Bruno muttered to himself: "Or is it that the army has sensed the kingdom's plans, if the situation has really reached this point, then it seems that it will not be able to wait for the early spring to come." ”
Walk over to your desk.
Bruno Valen picked up his pen and began to write his letters.
When the letter was finished and put into the envelope, he stood up again with a glass of red wine, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, and was silent for a while, and said, "Nightingale, send this letter to the headquarters of the Kingdom Army in Gasily City overnight. ”
The voice fell.
The letters written on the desk suddenly disappeared without a trace, as if they had never been there, and there was not a single figure in the entire office except for Bruno Valen, except for the curtains of the balcony that moved with the breeze.
Sip the red wine lightly.
Bruno Valen smiled, "It's time to teach the arrogant Imperial Army a lesson, maybe you don't have to wait for the early spring to arrive, and the golden lion banner of the kingdom is already flying over the walls of Kareni. ”
Bruno is the head of Kareni's spy system.
He did not regret that he had become a spy for the United Kingdom.
Don't look at the armed force of more than 10,000 people in his hands, but in the process of law enforcement, he was blocked by the military headquarters of the Third Army everywhere, and the army's interference in internal affairs has long reached the point where it is unbearable, he wants to let the arrogant military headquarters of the group army disappear, and he wants to really become the master of Kareni City, which is his deal with the United Kingdom.
In addition to the identity of the head of the Kareni Law Enforcement Bureau, he also has the status of a count of the United Kingdom.
This is the king of the United Kingdom secretly canonized, once the kingdom army launches an attack on the empire, then he will completely fall to the United Kingdom, and at the same time at the critical moment for the United Kingdom's army to do a good job of internal response, in the case of internal and external cooperation, let the imperial army taste what is called defeat.
I'm afraid no one knows.
One of the core members of the Kareni system of government has been fully embraced by the United Kingdom.
It was at this time.
The regimental commander and chief of staff finally led the people to the contact point in the slums.
As soon as he entered the door, the regimental commander Ganser Burton recognized that the man with the rank of major general was the commander of the Fifth Division of the Group Army, Raglan, and it happened that General Raglan and his division commander Alcott Owen were in competition, and the two often quarreled fiercely over resources.
In any case, the other party is a general after all.
Ganser Burton glanced appreciatively at Vega, who was neither humble nor arrogant next to him, and then stood up and saluted: "Ganser Burton, commander of the 2nd Brigade and 3rd Regiment of the 7th Division, greets His Excellency the General. ”
Ganther did not receive a response.
Raglan was staring blankly at the fireworks in the air, and with his ingenuity, he naturally understood that his whimsical thoughts just now seemed to have caused the failure of a certain mission, and the most important thing was that the child who caused this situation managed to escape because of his obstruction.
"Your Excellency, General?"
Ganther Burton repeated the previous words, finally awakening the pensive Raglan.
Raglan solemnly looked at Ganther Burton without much nonsense, and he said straightforwardly: "Lieutenant Colonel, without violating the imperial regulations, please inform me of the information of this city-level top-secret mission." ”
"Yes, Your Excellency. ”
The regimental commander did not hide anything and talked about the purpose of the mission from the beginning.
