In stark contrast to Lorraine's vigorous recruitment campaign, the Belford automaker is experiencing an unprecedented wave of departures.

Polina had tried everything she could, but she still couldn't stop the experts and professors hired from Olin from resigning one after another. It is not possible to move with emotion and reason, and it is not possible to improve the treatment, and even Rosen cannot bring a vote of the wolf-like People's Army to "persuade".

Under Dussand's orders, the former Imperial Army and the police of the various cities, as well as all the previously legitimate armed security guards, were all integrated, under the command of Brigadier General Philip of the People's Army.

Although Philip was in charge, the de facto supreme command was still in the hands of Rosen. Several important cities of Newsar, including Alber-Albin, were now defended by Rosen's soldiers.

Rosen himself did not have a big opinion on this, and he carried out all the orders given by Dussander very faithfully. But on the wave of departures from the Belford automaker plant...... He didn't have a good idea.

The experts who were hired with high salaries, without exception, all asked to leave immediately. Even if Polina explicitly told them that the Empire had cut off all flights to and from Newsar.

"If they weren't even afraid of the muzzle of the gun on their waists, then ...... The reason for this wave of resignation is probably not the fear of one's own safety. Upon learning of the wave of departures, Ms. Tamara, who is currently in charge of Newsar Aika, quickly made her own judgment: "There may be a problem here – I am afraid that conventional means alone will not solve the problem." ”

Polina, who visited Aika, had a sad face, and she quickly asked, "What should I do about that?" ”

After Rosen's "mission" failed, he directly recommended Aika to Polina, and specially reminded him, "Master has been busy lately, so don't bother him with these little things—you can just go to Ms. Tamara." ”

"The Belford Auto manufacturing plant is an important strategic facility in Upper Albin, and we will take care of it right away." Ms. Tamara thought for a moment and said, "Mr. Morse has just finished a mission and is now in the finishing phase. Let him handle this matter, and it should be resolved soon. ”

Morse was invited by Dussander to Aika, and he showed great ability from the moment he first joined. Under his leadership, within a month, the Morse team uncovered four Imperial spy groups lurking in the Upper Albin region one after another. And accurately captured seventy-six enemy spies on the entire line.

During the capture, Morse suffered some minor injuries. He is currently recuperating at home and will be able to return to work in about a month.

Although injured, it was not difficult for Morse to deal with such a task. Hanging from his arms in a white bandage, Morse's figure appeared in the small two-story building where the experts lived. After about twenty minutes, Morse, with his arm hanging, twisted the arm of a young man and appeared outside the small building.

Several red-clad postmen took over the young man, who had been arrested by Morse with one hand, and turned around and stuffed the man into a steam wagon.

By the time the steam wagon arrived in Newsar Aika, Dussart had been "waiting for a long time" here.

"Mr. Morse." Morse pushed open the door with one arm, and Dusund, who was sitting behind his desk, immediately raised his head, "Are you okay?" ”

Morse closed the door and replied, "It's just a thief, even if I break two hands." ”

"These people are everywhere." Dussaint took Morse to sit on the sofa on the side, and said with some emotion, "If it weren't for the help of Mr. Morse, I'm afraid that Newsar would be riddled by them." ”

Morse blinked, "What's so unusual about this kind of thing?" Miss Lorraine in Olin ...... I'm afraid they're doing the same thing, right? It doesn't matter if we have a few small flies here, as long as we make sure that the enemy is more wounded. ”

"Not necessarily." Dussander shook his head, "The Empire is a behemoth, and they can easily take losses that we can't afford to lose. To fight against such an opponent, we must strategically despise the opponent, but tactically, we must attach great importance to it. ”

If you are strategically intimidated by the sheer size of the enemy, then don't even think about resisting - wash your neck early and wait for someone to cut it down.

Strategically, the premise of treating a strong enemy as an opponent that you can defeat is to pay attention to all the moves of the opponent tactically. The empire could lose a dozen colonies and still maintain a huge war potential, but the current Newsal can't even afford the wave of shutdowns and departures at the Belford auto manufacturing plant.

Speaking of the wave of resignations, Dussaint quickly brought the topic back to the conversation, he was very concerned about the changes taking place in the Belford automatic car factory, but the reports of Polina and Rosen were a little unclear. Now Mr. Morse has gone and brought back a suspect - the quickest way for Dussart to get an answer.

"It's not that complicated in and of itself." Morse said, "The young man who was arrested should have been sent to Newsar by Orin Aika, or the Newsar who had been rebelled. His identity doesn't matter, but he's in charge of spreading the word - most of these experts' families live in Orin or other colonies, and Orin uses their families to threaten them to stop serving us. ”

Dussaint nodded, then began to frown. After a while, he suddenly asked, "What are these experts mainly engaged in?" ”

This question...... Morse didn't pay much attention to it at first. But that didn't stop him from quickly extracting useful information from the information he had already obtained.

"Mainly materials, mechanical automation and Ipsil lomb research." "The artificial rubber research center, which you and Master Polina value the most," said Mr. Morse, "has not been harassed in any way. ”

The Empire's desire for Newsal to take the Union's place is bizarre, but it is a given. Moreover, the Empire was convinced that it would be able to completely unwind the alliance in a short period of time, thus buying time for itself to resolve its internal contradictions.

According to the agency's plan, after the empire fills its stomach with the corpses of the alliance, the whole of Newsal can also grow to replace the alliance and become the place where the empire "disposes of waste".

Dealing with the Empire's waste is not a difficult task for an ordinary nation.

In the Agency's plan, before the Alliance could be completely wiped out by the Empire, Newsal would have to expand and grow rapidly. In this regard, they even did not hesitate to send a steady stream of supplies to Newsar through the distant Star Sea Federation.

Yes, more than 80% of the so-called "aid" provided by the Star Sea Federation to Newsar was paid by the Empire.

The resources sent by the Star Sea Federation are not only strategic materials, but also a large number of precision machining equipment, tools and design drawings. From the design of the ship's main guns to the technical manuals for maintaining and building gas pipelines, the Star Sea Federation seems to have bothered to hide the source of the supplies - all of which are clearly stamped with the "Made in Olympus" logo.

Under this level of "capital enemy", the empire has become a big financier who is closer than his own mother. They were eager to put all their resources in the hands of Newsar, urging the nascent "country" to grow rapidly.

In this context, the main purpose of the Empire's "attack" on Newsal may be to "insist that Newsal follow the line of rebellion".

Blocking all of Newsar's communication routes, indiscriminately massacring Newsar's civilians, and even forcing Androni to death in front of Dussand, all of these actions can be explained by "strengthening Newsar's will to rebel". But...... It is impossible to explain the wave of departures at the Belford automaker.

Leaving a group of specialists from Orin would affect Newsar's growth rate, and would do little to deepen Newsar's hatred of the Empire - thankless.

Dussaint subconsciously thought that there was something strange in this, but what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of the empire, he really didn't have a clue for a while.

"This little young man who was caught...... Squeeze all the value out of him. Dussaint thought for a moment and waved his hand, "Do an investigation of other research institutes and factories in Newsar as soon as possible, if the Imperial side does make a move, it will definitely not just focus on the car factory." ”
