"Is it coming from the old government army?" Lorraine couldn't help but be startled after hearing this.
You have to know that the Free Army and the old government forces... well, they are now called the "Puppet Government Army". There is still a war relationship between the Free Army and the Puppet Government Army. How could they possibly convey any urgent military information to themselves?
Even if there are people in the puppet government forces who want to sell themselves and join the army, in order to perform meritorious service and exchange their names, the information should be passed on through secret channels.
The attendant was also a little confused about this complicated situation. He smiled bitterly and said, "Sir, you will know after you go back and take a look."
Lorraine couldn't help but sigh: No matter how unreasonable this 'emergency military situation' is, as long as it is a military situation, as a commander, you must deal with it in a timely manner.
Thinking of this, he immediately stood up and looked regretfully at the parade that was still on the street. At night, there would be a large number of "voluntary" people who came holding torches and marching and cheering on the street.
Congratulations to the new government.
When the time comes, countless torches in the city will light up, illuminating the sky and the earth. It will definitely be a spectacular scene...
You must know that what Sir Alex Ferguson envied the most was the torch parade organized by Xiao Xi. Unfortunately, he never had the opportunity to play it himself. Now that he finally has the opportunity, he finds that he has to be busy with work. This is really disappointing.
.
Fiona was also quite unhappy. Although she said something unforgiving, she also knew that what Lorraine wanted to do was business. Therefore, despite her reluctance, she still followed Lorraine and hurried downstairs.
He got up and down. Then he got into a carriage next to him.
The carriage started immediately. Under the escort of more than twenty elite knights, it quickly left along the back street with few pedestrians.
In a short time, Lorraine had arrived at Lingshan's palace.
Although the entrance ceremony is still in progress, in fact, the entire Arkadelin has already been divided up by the coalition forces and the interim government.
Like the central city, the wealthy places are basically all managed by Lei Erye's State Administration of Taxation. And the major government agencies have also been recruited by the Provisional Government.
As for the ports and city gates, the coalition forces snatched them away in the name of "military supply." For this reason, there were several fights between the Free Army and the coalition's bastards.
Unfortunately, they all knew that this kind of thing should not be brought to light, so no one was killed during the fight, but it was inevitable that they would be beaten with bruises and bruises on their noses and faces, and would have to lie down for ten and a half days.
Various other places are also stationed by various troops based on their military merits.
The most prestigious royal garden in the city of Arkadelin is now owned by Xiaobai. The little gangster now disowns all his relatives and dominates the door, biting anyone who dares to enter. All the people he offends stay away.
As for the most important palace in the city of Akadelin, it has already been occupied by the lord in advance.
The side hall on the left is the coalition headquarters. The right side was where former Prime Minister Madolins used to work. Now it belongs to President Bullard.
President Brad originally planned to occupy the palace at the back or something, but after going in and taking a second look, he found that most of the inside was dilapidated. He was very angry at the time and caught the former palace manager and gave him a good spanking.
Then an order was issued to carry out renovations immediately and complete them within a deadline. Therefore, large-scale renovations are now underway.
Everyone is very optimistic about the future: because if President Bullard continues to work like this, maybe in the future, eunuchs, a profession that has been extinct for a long time but has a very promising future, will flourish again and reappear in the palace.
.
However, Lord Luo expressed cautious doubts about this: Did the old guy not know the difference between the president and the emperor, or was he deliberately confusing the difference between the two?
If this is really the case, Lord Luo has no choice but to persuade him not to be too arrogant. You must know that the consequences of doing this will inevitably be the same as Yuan Datou, who will be ruined.
Lorraine strode into the palace and saw a group of staff officers still busy in the palace.
On a huge sand table placed in the middle of the hall, flags were used to mark the positions of various units. From time to time, someone would move the flags based on intelligence.
When everyone saw Lorraine coming in, they all immediately stood up and saluted.
Lorraine hurriedly returned the salute and then sat down at the main seat.
Someone next to me had already handed over the information and said, "Commander, this was just sent on a rush of 800 miles."
Lorraine took it and took a look, and immediately felt dumbfounded: No wonder everyone wants to capture the capital during the war. It turns out to be because of the buff?
The officer next to him looked at the count's face and asked carefully: "Commander, we don't care about him with this information?"
Lorraine smiled bitterly and said sternly: "How is this possible? The other party sent us military information, which also shows that they have recognized the legal status of our government in their hearts. This can also be regarded as handing in a certificate of surrender. We can't leave these little brothers cold.
heart.
What's more, Lingshan still has a large area that has not been recovered. I believe the governors there are also watching the wind direction. If it is handled well this time, they will definitely accept it."
Seeing this, the officer immediately said: "I understand, let's make a plan immediately."
Then he saluted, turned and walked away.
Lorraine looked at the urgent document thoughtfully, and thought to herself: Is this also considered as "the world returns to its heart"?

Time goes back ten days.
South Ohud Province is a border province located in the southwest of Lingshan.
It is mountainous and has countless dangerous terrains. Only the Lannas Basin in the north is a geomantic treasure land with a humid climate and abundant rainfall, which is most suitable for growing various economic crops.
Beyond the Lannas Basin, there are boundless mountains.
Although there is a saying that "poor mountains and harsh waters bring out unruly people", the unruly people in South Ohud are particularly powerful.
They were also famous throughout the Semitic tribes, because the leader of this gang of thieves was a man named Acaterimius.
This man is famous and his life experience is quite legendary.
He was once the youngest commander of the Ling Shan Guards. He was brave and good at fighting and had a bright future. He was regarded as someone who could become an admiral or chief of military affairs.
However, he disappeared during a war to suppress a peasant uprising. Soon afterwards, he appeared in the rebel camp and became the leader of a rebel army.
There are different reasons for this. Some people say that he was framed by his jealous superiors, while others say that he sympathized with the rebels.
Some people also said that he was a "beautiful woman" because the rebel army sent a beautiful woman who knew "three hundred and sixty-seven kinds of" kissing skills to seduce him.
Of course, some people refuted it, saying that his girlfriend was molested by a pretty boy. In the end, he was so angry that he beat the pretty boy. But later he found out that the pretty boy was a yanei. Later, he was framed by the yanei's father...
In any case, Acatrimius has since fallen into disgrace and has become the most formidable enemy of the Semitic government and the most wanted criminal with the highest reward in history.
"Whoever catches Acatrilios, regardless of life or death, will be rewarded with a hundred thousand gold and a hereditary title." From this alone, we can know the importance of this person.
Under his leadership, the rebel army, which was originally a bunch of mud-legged rebels, gradually gained some momentum. They fought in all directions, causing half a soul to have no peace.
The government forces at that time had no choice but to invite lichs as reinforcements.
As soon as the war fortress and necromancy spells came out, Acatrithius's peasant army was unable to resist, and they were defeated one after another. Even he himself was almost killed by the lich.
In desperation, Akaterimius led the rebel army and had no choice but to retreat into the vast mountains of South Ohud, relying on the steep terrain to engage in a stalemate with the government. This situation lasted for another twenty or thirty years.
The rebels were not idle during this period, and they kept harassing people everywhere, but in the end, it didn't work.
Precisely because of the presence of a large army, although there are active rebel armies around, the Lannas Basin has not been threatened by the rebel armies for many years, and has always been stable and prosperous.
As the capital of South O'Hud and where the governor is stationed, Lannas City is also a well-known city among the Semitic people. The climate is warm all year round and it is like spring all year round. It is famous for its leisurely and prosperous life. Someone once jokingly said, A
Kaderin's horse will be three minutes slower when it gets here.
But in recent days, the atmosphere in the city has suddenly become tense and people are panicked.
The small restaurants and taverns on both sides of the bluestone road no longer sat with a group of idlers drinking, listening to music and gossiping all day long. They suddenly became empty. Pedestrians were walking in a hurry on the street, and large groups of soldiers were fully armed and were walking back and forth on the street with murderous intent.
patrol.
Even the few drinkers who occasionally appeared had sad faces, and they were talking about only one thing: Arkadelin was surrounded.
After the news came that Arkadelin was surrounded by human coalition forces, the atmosphere in Lannus City became unprecedentedly tense: The broken ship of the old Semitic government was about to capsize, and where should they Lannas people go?
?
It stands to reason that at this time we should raise troops with great righteousness and attack those rebellious officials and traitors. When the king's army is set in the north, we can reorganize the mountains and rivers and restore my Lingshan bloodline.
But it’s enough to just talk about this kind of thing. If someone really wants to implement it, everyone must first ask with concern: Did this girl take her medicine today?
You must know that mankind has millions of soldiers, and those tiger and wolf warriors are not vegetarians.
But it is absolutely a political mistake to want to surrender openly. No matter who first proposes it, it will definitely lead to a dead end.
Whenever they were in a dilemma, they would subconsciously look up in the direction of the Governor's Palace in the city. Little did they know that Governor Nan Ohud was even more confused than they were.
At this moment, Governor Donadie looked at the subordinates around him who were more silent than himself with a frown. Whenever his eyes swept across, the officers he saw all lowered their heads unnaturally, not daring to confront him.
See.
"Alas..." Governor Donadie sighed again. This was the hundreds of times he sighed in the past few days. The nearly fifty-year-old Governor wailed in his heart and thought to himself: Why am I so unlucky?
~!
As a big landowner with ideals and morals, he has had a very difficult time in these years. He just took money from his teeth, saved it, and then sold his wife's dowry, and then he scraped together this amount.
A sum of money bought the governor's position.
Although South O'Hud is a bit remote, it still has plenty of oil and water. And the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, so no matter what you do, you don't have to worry about being noticed.
Governor Donadie took office happily, but before his butt was even warmed up, humans invaded the Semitic continent.
At that time, Governor Donadie was shocked. However, there was no movement in the following months. The Governor thought that human beings were still as incapable of progress as last time. Therefore, this issue was none of his business and was left to Akadelin.
You little bitches, go have a headache.
Anyway, South O'Hud is more than two thousand miles away from the Caribbean. He continued to serve as his own peace governor, and even secretly rejoiced that he was away from war.
While others were on the front lines and working their butts off, he was leisurely drinking and picking up girls in the rear, making some sarcastic remarks and gloating about his misfortunes. He was really happy.
But after entering May, the situation took a turn for the worse. The human army seemed to have taken the legendary little blue pill. It was extremely brave and rushed all the way. It only took a mere month to surround Akadelin.
Didn't even encounter any resistance.
In this way, everyone knows that the old government is over, and the future will be the era of that damn republic. The nobility must be abolished and the government must be reorganized.
Officials are naturally the most concerned about this. Will their official status be lost soon?
Everyone gathered in the Governor's Mansion to discuss all day, but they couldn't come up with an idea and could only stare at each other. Everyone was in a dilemma~!
We will definitely not be able to fight a war. And what’s even more frightening is that fighting a war requires money. Although the governor is greedy, the common people will admit it. But once a war starts, the money will be lost. Don’t say that.
It's the common people, even the local nobles will definitely jump up and howl like they had their teeth pulled out.
But and..., we are all members of the old government. Once you surrender, they will definitely not take you seriously. It will be easy for you to be dismissed from office, or even conduct a liquidation or something.
In order to become this official, everyone invested all their wealth and life, and then they got it. If you lose your official position, you might as well die~!
After a long silence, a man in military uniform on the right side of the governor coughed and broke the silence. Seeing that everyone's eyes were focused on him, he sighed, looked at the governor, and said in a deep voice: "Count the time,
From the time Arkadelin was surrounded to now, the human coalition has almost reached the border of our province. So far, are we preparing for war or..."
He hesitated for a moment and stammered: "Peace, peace talks, sir, you have to make an idea."
The others immediately raised their heads and stared at the Governor with different eyes.
Governor Donadie raised his lips, but revealed a smile that was uglier than crying, and said: "General René, what should I say about preparations for war?"
General René flattened his lips and said: "Your Excellency, if you want to fight, we will gather the garrison from the whole province and train the militia. There can be more than 100,000 people, and then guard the passes in and out. With the steep terrain, it is still possible to hold on for a period of time."
...right?"
Everyone heard it, and General Rene himself was not sure. He was more of a question than an explanation.
Even the most heartless person can tell that General René himself is not sure about the future situation of the war.
"I heard that humans have war fortresses that people can fly over." Someone raised an objection at the moment.
"yes."
Many people echoed in low voices.
"They also have cannons, which are very powerful. I heard that one cannon can blow up a mountain."
"Yes, yes."
More people nodded in response.
Governor Donadieu also panicked, staring at General René like a child, and asked anxiously: "If humans come, from the provincial border to the city, how long can we stop him?"
"Uh..." General René was stunned, and his expression changed several times, which was very strange.
"Just tell it like it is." The Governor seemed to be willing to give up.
With a look of shame on his face, General René slowly stretched out three fingers and said hesitantly: "Three..."
"Three months?" Governor Donadie said with some surprise. In three months, he could observe again, make decisions before taking action, or discuss conditions and so on.
The terrain of South Ohud is steep, with mountain roads in and out, and frequent landslides, making it extremely easy to defend and difficult to attack. There have been such battles in history.
General René shook his head with a dark face.
"Then, three weeks?" Governor Donadieu thought about the same thing. He still had enough time to inquire about the information before making a decision.
"No, it's three days." General Rene said with a dejected look on his face: "If humans want to invade, I guess three days will be enough."
"I'm going to slap you~!" Governor Donadieu uttered an expletive in desperation, and slumped down on his chair, staring blankly at the bright sky outside the window. He muttered: "Then
So we can only vote for...peace talks?"
Although the officials around them kept a straight face and said nothing, the excitement in their eyes betrayed them. These guys were just waiting for the governor's words.
After a while, someone looked at how pitiful the governor was and whispered: "Sir, the peace talks are not bad."
After hearing this, the people at the long table seemed to suddenly become energetic and expressed their agreement.
"Negotiating with humans isn't so bad."
"I heard that in places occupied by humans, no one is arrested except for black ghosts."
The nigger mentioned by this official refers to the secret police sent by Madolins.
"I know this. Before the government reorganization, they continued to serve as officials, but after the reorganization, they need to run for office."
"This is a good thing..."
The topic was opened, and the atmosphere in the conference room gradually became heated. Everyone was no longer discussing the treatment of Semitic noble officials in the human-occupied areas like they were just now, like a dead mother.
Even Governor Donadie had a hesitant expression on his face.
However, some people were very dissatisfied with this and said loudly: "Just say nice things, don't forget. Humans are desperate for money. I think you have also heard that humans have a powerful tax chief. Every noble has
It was scraped clean by him."
The conference room suddenly became cold, and only that person's voice remained.
"If the land exceeds 300 acres, it will be forcibly taken away. I think everyone here has at least a thousand acres of land under their name. They will also have to pay a huge fine..."
His words were suddenly interrupted, and an old man with white beard and hair stood up and said: "I don't kill people, don't impose sentences, only tax taxes and confiscate property. I'm already very righteous.
Is it possible that if humans come to kill you, they will give you a promotion and money?"
The old man's words immediately rendered the man speechless.
Seeing that no one was speaking, the old man snorted coldly and said: "Compared with money or life, which one is more important?
Things are going to change anyway, so it would be great to keep the whole family safe."
Governor Donadie looked at the old man and said bitterly: "Sir Robert, is there really nothing we can do?"
Although the Governor took office not long ago, he worked diligently and acquired tens of thousands of acres of first-class fertile land. The thought of it being confiscated makes his heart bleed.
Robert looked very serious and said: "I don't know if you have noticed that the mood of the tenants on the farm is very wrong. They have also seen the leaflets scattered by humans. They do not kill civilians, and they also promote equality for everyone and distribute land for free.
The dead people below have long been reluctant. Recently, those dead people have looked at us in the wrong way.
They have been ready to make a move for a long time, and maybe they would have rioted before the humans came over."
Many people followed and complained.
"Yes, those stubborn people in my family suddenly became unruly, and the people they sent out were not able to work."
"Nowadays, you can't run fast on the street for fear of hitting someone. That so-and-so was beaten to death because he hit someone on horseback. How could this have happened before?"
"It's okay for you guys. Yesterday when I went out on the street, stones were thrown at the carriage. You son of a bitch, I'm lucky that I ran so fast."
"Last night I woke up in the middle of the night and the servant at home was sharpening a knife."
But the more people talked, the more scared they became, as if those people were going to riot in any minute. They also understood that the good times were gone forever.
The side door of the conference room was silent. An attendant walked quickly behind the Governor and placed a piece of paper in the Governor's hand. Governor Donadie's face suddenly changed color. He raised his head and glanced at everyone, and said bitterly:
"Latest news, Madolins is dead."
The conference room suddenly became peaceful, and everyone looked at each other with shock on their faces.
"Commander of the Army, Fair, kill him and go and collect the reward from humans." The man dropped another bombshell.
Governor Donadie touched his neck, and a strong sense of crisis suddenly arose in his heart. At this moment, the people sitting on the left were thinking about cutting off his head to claim credit from mankind.
"There will definitely be one. I know these bastards very well." Governor Donadieu's face turned pale. He looked at Robert and thought to himself: "Maybe this old guy blocked his way to become governor.
Lu. It could also be Rene, this guy is too ambitious."
Governor Donadieu thought that everyone had every reason to kill him.
"We can't wait any longer." He raised his hand to suppress the arguments among the people, stared at them silently for a moment, and said loudly: "For the happiness of the people of our province, as the patriarch of a party, I have decided to negotiate peace with mankind."
At this point, Governor Donadie's heart moved. He was about to surrender anyway. Instead of waiting for humans to accept it, why can't I take the initiative?
The more Governor Donadie thought about it, the more he realized that this was a good idea. Once Madolinus died, the ship of the old government was completely overturned. He had to find a way out for his future. It was better to wait for surrender than to take the initiative to rise up.
"I'm so smart, I can even think of such an idea." (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
