Macho Wars

Macho Wars Chapter 354

According to the letter sent to Alicia by the mysterious man, the current political situation in Tarrance can be described as turbulent.After the news of Karen's "death" spread over there, the senior officials of the aristocratic government realized that their opportunity was coming. As the direct members of the royal family were all annihilated, many distant branches all appeared on the stage, intending to fight for the throne.

However, all competitors are well aware that the ultimate ownership of the throne is useless for them to grab the head here. They also need to be recognized by the empire.

But the problem now is that the empire is fighting a civil war, and it is divided into two empires that are opposed to each other. You want to get support from the "Dad Country", but which one is the real father?So the party and government inevitably happened!The differences also led to further conflicts and confrontations. Some "activists" even came up with the idea of ​​sending troops to join the empire's civil war to help one of them fight.

In this process, the few rationalists headed by the Minister of the Army, General Levsto, hope that these nobles can put the country’s righteousness first, try to maintain neutrality with the outside world, and avoid being involved in the civil war of the empire. That is not theirs. A game where small characters can participate.

As a result, Levsto became a target of public criticism. Many aristocratic officials were afraid of the military power he had in his hands. Seeing that he was not advancing, they refused to stand in line, so some people had a bad idea to get rid of this old stubbornness. .

But Levsto is the "national hero" who led the War of the Resurrection. He has a high personal reputation in the Tarrans army and the people. The risks and disadvantages of the assassination are too great.

I don't know who came up with the idea, but he came up with an "unnecessary" trick, arresting General Levstoy on the charge of suspected treason.

This group of nobles also knew the character of the old general and knew that he was upright, so they deliberately used ambiguous statements, pretending that "we have no choice but to aggravate the general first."In order to prove his innocence, Levsto did not make any resistance, so he was put under house arrest by the authorities.

Using the military’s intelligence system, Dragun quickly confirmed the content of the letter. However, the political situation in Tarrance did appear to be turbulent, and the Minister of the Army Levsto was arrested on suspicion of treason.According to Tarance's official statement, the relevant evidence is still uncertain, and Levsto is under house arrest to "protect" him.

However, after Levsto was placed under house arrest, his subordinates did not intend to just watch the old general imprisoned. Some officers organized to protest against the authorities, while others tried to get in touch with the Eastern Empire.

They knew that General Lee of the Imperial Marine Corps had fought side by side with Levsto on the land of Tarrance and established a deep friendship, and his wife, the eleventh princess Alicia of the Empire, was also Queen Karen’s life. My dear friend, so I hope to get his help and support.

Since the transoceanic communication lines in Tarrance are controlled by the authorities and the postal system has no security guarantees, they can only send a messenger, disguised as immigrants and sail across oceans to the New World, hoping to personally send hundreds of people. The officer’s joint letter was delivered to Dragon.

However, the authorities apparently sensed the messenger's whereabouts and sent people early to try to intercept the other side of the New World.Fortunately, the messenger finally found the opportunity to hand the joint letter to Alicia, who was taking the children to the playground, and finally passed to Dragon.

After confirming the situation in the Far East, Dragon immediately launched an action. He asked Roebuck to take the brothers of the strong investigation brigade, disguised as a delivery worker to his textile factory on standby, preparing to wipe out the "rats" near his home.

According to Lyudmila's instructions, all targets were quickly confirmed, with a total of eleven people.Because of their different identities and different time periods of appearance, the arrests cannot be carried out at the same time, and they have to be careful not to start offense.

So Roebuck suggested that he should simply anti-tracking, and the arrest plan was immediately finalized.

The entire arrest plan went smoothly, and after only one night, eleven rats were arrested one after another.Six of them are the eyeliners of the national security department, responsible for secretly protecting the safety of the Dragon family. These brothers felt very embarrassed when they were arrested. After confirming their identities with their superiors, Dragon took them It's all released.

However, they revealed a piece of information to Dragon, that is, the relevant authorities have also noticed that a suspicious person is monitoring the Li family mansion recently, and they are planning to arrest these guys, but they did not expect Dragon to move first. hand.

Among the remaining five people, there was a thief who was bold enough to come to Li's house and was held down when he stepped on it. The other four were the people Dragon was looking for.

The day after the four were arrested, the Tarrance Embassy hurriedly sent a representative over to apologize and tried to get someone from Dragon.

The explanation given by the other party was that they received a tip that some remnant traitors in Tarrance were preparing to assassinate Dragon in order to destroy the friendship between the kingdom and the empire. These people they sent were Prepared to protect Dragon in secret.

For this explanation, Dragon sneered.

"Protection? Do I use you to protect?"

In short, Dragon refused to release the people, and the four arrested were also transferred to the military prison under the control of the Marine Corps.

Regarding the situation in Tarrance, Dragun contacted the upper ranks of the military, hoping to beat the opponent a little bit.Although Tarance is located in the Far East and its national power is very weak, the Empire has two regiments and nearly 110,000 troops still deployed there.

This force currently maintains neutrality for the time being, but Firavi and Howard are working hard to win each other, maybe they can start from the Tarrance government.

Chapter 487

Calculating the time, with the help of the empire, the Kingdom of Tarrance has been recovered for almost a year. The whole country is waiting to be revived. It should have started to rebuild after the war, and strive to rejuvenate the country as soon as possible, so that the people can live a stable new Life, but the new government supported by the empire is like a mess of mud, and its efficiency is appalling.

One year was given to them, stupefied that even the agricultural production related to the people's livelihood in the country has not been fully restored, and many regions have still relied on relief food to the empire until now.

The main reason for this situation was that at the beginning of the restoration of Tarrans, the new government had to win the support of local aristocrats due to lack of manpower, so it absorbed many nobles from the Guangfu District and officials of the old kingdom government into the new government. Hold office.

This group of old bureaucrats may not have much ability to govern the country, but they are good at fighting for power and fighting within factions.After taking office, the country's people's livelihood was thrown aside, unscrupulously profited, and those officials who refused to go with them were excluded.

Thanks to them, Tarrance is now full of smoke, and the people's lives have not improved much since the end of the war.The people gradually became disappointed in this new government, and various grievances gradually deepened.

And another target where local people's grievances are concentrated is the imperial army currently stationed in Tarrance.

At the beginning, the local residents of Tarrans still had a good impression of these Sidney garrisons, thinking that they were the heroes who liberated Tarrans, and respected them.

But over time, conflicts broke out between the garrison and the local residents.There are often garrison soldiers fighting in the local area, and even robbery and rape, and the local government and police are hindered by the identity of the other party. Not only do they dare not step forward and intervene in the event of an accident, they will also be partial in handling after the incident, and the people dare to get angry. Dare not speak.

In response to these problems, the empire originally planned to intervene in order to stabilize and strengthen its influence in the Far East, but with the outbreak of the civil war, these measures and ideas were forced to temporarily shelve.

On the third day after Dragon received the joint letter, Howard also arrived in the colony.

The local war has entered a stalemate stage, and there are suitable generals in charge, so Howard was able to withdraw to the rear and recuperate his overwhelmed body.

On the way back, he learned of many things happening in the colony via telegram, and he admired Dragon's handling of the parade.In addition to recovering from illness, he was also prepared to free up his hands to deal with the affairs of the Far East.

At present, Howard and Philaway are working hard to win the Far East garrison. Although they are still neutral and do not want to be involved in the civil war, the commander General Harvey is more inclined to Howard and intends to withdraw the Far East garrison to the colony of the New World.

However, the problem now is that General Harvey has suffered from a lung infection in the Far East, and his health is getting worse and worse. I am afraid that time is running out.And some of his senior generals are determined to take refuge in the eldest prince Firavi, ready to drag Harvey to his breath, so as to take the opportunity to seize control of the Far East garrison.

Howard received Harvey's request for help, ready to attack the Far East garrison.

The current situation in the Far East is complicated. The garrison of the Empire, the local government of Tarrance, and the forces of neighboring countries are all competing openly or secretly.

Howard hopes to withdraw most of the Far East garrison, but does not want to waste all the foundation of influence that was not easy to lay in the Far East, so he feels quite troubled in the choice.

So after returning, Howard summoned Dragon on the same day.

When we met again, although Howard's complexion was not too bad, he looked much older. He was sitting in a wheelchair with a rickety figure and severely drooping eye bags. At first glance, he knew that it was the result of overwork, which made Dragon very Worried about his body.

Seeing Dragon came, the old general smiled and let him sit down, and then asked him straightforwardly how he viewed the problems of the Far East.

Dragon knew that Howard was looking for himself to study this, so he was ready to talk.He believes that the current situation in the Far East is complicated and complicated by different people's hearts. The Far East garrison is not of one mind, the Tarrance government is not of one mind, and even external forces are not of one mind.

But complexity also has its advantages. The dispersal of people's minds just shows that they cannot be unified, and instead leaves room for them to intervene from the outside.

So Dragon hesitated for a moment, then spoke out his thoughts.

"General, with all due respect, the Tarrans government at this stage is already rotten. Rather than trying to remedy it, it's better to break it up and start again. And those guys are not very suitable targets for support. When the old kingdom fell The local nobles have already been blood-washed by the occupying forces of the Sapphire Principality once, and the spineless have long since died, and most of those who can survive are wall grass, whoever forces them to fall to whom."

"I understand what you mean, but we have no choice, do we?"

"Why do you have to choose aristocrats? It's like picking a few from a pile of rotten goods that are not so rotten. The problem itself has not been effectively solved. Moreover, Tarrance's current domestic main contradiction is precisely the civilians and the old nobles. The class contradiction between them. If we change the general period, I actually agree to let those clutters stay on the stage, because as long as the empire is still strong, they will be the most obedient lackeys. But the problem now is that we are all already Overwhelmed with care, General."

"But who will be replaced after the overthrow? We can't go to the battle in person, right? Isn't that an encroachment? Internationally, it will be eloquent... Wait a minute! I guess you mean Levsto? ...He is indeed a good candidate."

"We try not to act in person, just to add to the flames."

"Will he agree? I met that guy when I went to the Far East. A very upright person. It might be difficult for him to betray his country."

Speaking of Levsto, Howard admired this man mostly, a very pure soldier and an admirable patriot.He has a high reputation among the local people of Tarrans, but he does not have the royal blood of Tarrans after all.In today's world, not many people have really begun to question the idea of ​​royal power. Non-royal coups are a complete rebellion. Even if you are a great hero, you will be criticized by many morals.

But Dragon felt that this was not a big problem, because the situation in Tarrance was quite special. The royal family members had already been wiped out, and the people had deep grievances against the corrupt old nobles. They stood in Levsto. come out.

"The people need Levsto, and the people is Tarance!"
