Chapter 160 Promotion(1/2)
(Please recommend votes...)
On this day, three incidents occurred that attracted attention from the Tokyo Concession and the whole world.
The biggest shock was of course the terrorist attack. The Kawaguchi Central Hotel was hijacked by the resistance organization [Japanese Liberation Front], including members of parliament and tourists, and staff were trapped in it. Moreover, its leader Lieutenant Colonel Kurabi threatened the Brittanian army to disarm with his hostage life.
Shortly after the terrorist attack, Zero, the number one terrorist who was notorious in the Tokyo Concession, persuaded the new governor, Cornelia. Li. Britania to release the throne. However, the most incredible thing is that he not only rescued the hostages, but also claimed that Lieutenant Colonel Caobi and his members had accepted his sanctions, and at the same time officially announced to the world that the Black Knights were born.
"——We do not deny war. But we will never allow the strong to unilaterally massacre the weak! Those who dare to attack must have the awareness of being attacked. When justice falls and the weak lament tyranny, we will appear again. No matter how powerful the enemy is!"
"People with power, fear us! Blade of powerlessness, pursue us! The world... will be judged by our Black Knights!"
This sentence actually contains some contradictions, that is, why are they qualified to judge? Whether the act of judgment itself is related to the relationship between the strong and the weak they deny, etc.
However, these contradictions are nothing in the face of their greatly applauding actions.
To describe it in an easy-to-understand word, they are the ‘messengers of justice’.
People who do not succumb to the powerful Britania, nor do they involve irrelevant people in war, and insist on fighting for the many Japanese living in the 11th district—
At least, in the minds of the Japanese who hate Britania, they are heroes who fall from the sky. People are fanatical because of them, and their leaders are also highly praised.
In fact, only the senior Britannian military leaders knew about the final incident.
There is such a majestic building in the central area of the Tokyo Concession District.
That's the ruling hall.
According to the order, at 8 o'clock in the morning, Ling Yi rushed to the Governor's office, knocked on the door and walked in after receiving a response.
"Good morning, Governor, I'm sorry to have let you wait for a long time."
"Wilvet?"
Cornelia, who was sitting behind the desk to correct documents, raised her head when she heard the sound and smiled when she saw Ling Yi.
"No, you came earlier than Dalton. If you don't mind, sit for a while."
"Yes. By the way, General Dalton hasn't come yet?"
When Cornelia mentioned this, she put down the pen in her hand and looked serious:
"The evening before yesterday, the Great Japanese Aotian Party suddenly launched an indiscriminate terrorist attack. In order to suppress the situation, I asked Dalton to be responsible for this matter. But later, I was ambushed on the way to the Tokyo Concession..."
"Could it be... General Dalton...?"
Ling Yi frowned, as if he was worried.
"Your worries are too redundant. His words are fine. This small thing should be expected. However, the driver of your special mission was beyond the expectations of many people. He almost fought a beautiful anti-annihilation with his own strength. Then Dalton led his team back to the Tokyo Concession in one go, but the remnants of the Great Japanese Aotian Party had already retreated. He had been busy cleaning up the mess these two days."
Cornelia briefly explained the whole thing in a relaxed tone.
"That's true, I'm too worried. With General Dalton's combat experience, this little thing is naturally no problem." Ling Yi stretched his eyebrows and said with a smile.
"By the way, Lieutenant. Your injury is not important, right?" Cornelia asked suddenly.
"Of course, it was just a few shots. However, when I took out the shell, it gave me a headache for a while."
Ling Yi pretended to be helpless and spread his hands.
Although Avalon's treatment effect is first-class, it does not mean that the bullets shot into the body can be squeezed out. It was not until after returning that I went to the hospital for surgery.
Hearing him say this, Cornelia couldn't help but remember that when Zero announced to the world in a grand manner the night before yesterday, the young man who was calm on the sofa returned with Euphemia in blood. At that time, it was beyond everyone's expectations, and even most people didn't know it. The shocking scene left a deep impression on them.
Compared with this, although Zero's announcement is very tricky, it is not as important as Ling Yi's success in this secret rescue operation.
He has largely saved the face of the Britannian military. If Deputy Governor Euphemia was photographed by the camera, the military's prestige would be greatly hit.
"Yufei asked me to convey my gratitude to her, and by the way, there was also an apology. It seems that she has caused you a lot of trouble?"
"It's nothing, the Deputy Governor General is so serious. It's just a trivial matter. Please tell Deputy Governor General Euphemia to her for her subordinates and please don't take it to heart."
Ling Yi showed an attitude of neither humility nor arrogant from beginning to end, which made Cornelia admire him very much.
There are fewer and fewer young people who are capable, smart, and dare to do and fight.
And the most important thing is that although it seems reckless, it has planned actions, which is a rare place.
Just then—dongdong, knocking on the door came.
"Sorry, Your Highness, I'm late."
The person who opened the door was Dalton.
He still looked as usual, and it seemed that the endgame of the past two days was quite smooth.
"So, I think it's time to fulfill my promise a few days ago."
............
In June, Cornelia returned to the mainland of the Britannian Empire.
During this trip, Cornelia not only reported the replacement of nine civil and military officials who were permanently stationed in District 11 with the authority of the governor to her father, Emperor Britania, Charles J. Britania, but also obtained permission to increase military power to District 11. There is no doubt that this is also to strengthen the strength of the ruling army in District 11.
It is worth mentioning that before this, Cornelia had an interview with a man.
This person's name is Shunigel.Lu. Britania, and he is the second prince of the Holy Britania Empire and the half-brother of Cornelia.
As the prime minister of the empire, after promisingly agreeing to say good words to his father, he smiled and said to Cornelia:
"This errand must be very hard. Cole. Things in that area have become a big topic in the local area."
Although it was not the first time that he was called this, Cornelia was still not used to it.
"I feel ashamed of the expectations of the Prime Minister."
"Where, even you feel so difficult. If it were someone else, I don't know how much trouble it would cause. As for the suppression of the Chinese Federation, I will contact Lasher of District 10 to ask him to support you. If there is any place I can help, just say it."
"So, please give me the right to transfer it separately, no...
"Well, no problem."
After dealing with these things, Cornelia hurriedly embarked on her way back before she could meet her mother. The trip to return ended in just one and a half days. In fact, Cornelia was indeed plagued by official duties during this period. As the newly appointed governor, and the jurisdiction was still the 11th District where riots were constantly occurring, this was inevitable.
As soon as Cornelia returned to the city hall in the Tokyo Concession, she called her sister Yufei.
"In the future, in addition to the ceremony hosted by the Governor, I hope you can represent me to attend all polite public events. No problem, Deputy Governor Euphemia."
"Abide by the order. Your Excellency the Governor."
"Sorry to make you suffer, but the most realistic problem at the moment is that you can make the people feel more at ease than my cold face. If you have any trouble, go find Major Velvet. I believe he can bring you a lot of help."
When Yufei heard his sister's words, he was stunned at first, and then he smiled like a flower.
"I understand. Moreover, my sister is actually a very gentle person, and I can't know much about this."
"It's enough to have you, Yufei."
"No, one day, the people in this area will also understand this."
After Euphee left, Cornelia called Cavalier Guildford again.
"Be careful to monitor NAC and don't be careless."
"NAC-Are you referring to Kyoto?"
"Yes. If they have any suspicious actions, they will report to me immediately."
NAC is a Japanese group that had huge energy in the 11th District before the war, even after the war. Although this organization rarely entered politics as a financial giant before the war, Cornelia believed that the other party's ambition was more than that.
"Although those civil servants cooperate very well with our rule, this makes me feel suspicious. Do these guys who could have controlled a major economic power so easily give up their real power?"
"You are right!"
"Don't look at these guys who are obedient to us on the surface, they are likely to provide financial support to the anti-government forces secretly. If I have the opportunity, I want to suppress their arrogance. Moreover, allowing these wealth-guarding slaves to do their own arrogance will also damage the reputation of our Britannian Empire."
This passage is more of a manifestation of Cornelia's military temperament than a military-first ideological tendency. However, it has to be admitted that she does have the vision of judging the situation.
After Guildford withdrew, Cornelia first processed the relevant documents that had been accumulated during the business trip, and finally called Dalton.
"It's time?"
When this natural warrior, his most trusted subordinate, appeared in the office, Cornelia asked.
Dalton couldn't react to this question without warning for a moment. But he soon realized it and replied with a smile:
"Yes, the defense around the concession is getting more and more complete. The Governor has never had the same chaos as before the previous two days during the period when he left - but I suggest not to use air strikes this time, but to directly use Knightmare to suppress the war."
"After all, it's the enemy's base camp."
"Yes. If possible, I hope to capture the enemy leader alive or the Fujido who assisted him."
"Miracle Fujido--? Interesting, I haven't encountered such a good guy in a long time."
Cornelia smiled, too.
This means that she can finally give it a try.
"Okay. Please give me the organization of the troops, Dalton. Send a first reconnaissance team again. After receiving the reward, the whole team will immediately launch a general attack on Narita's Japanese Liberation Front!"
"yes!"
Although the Britannians in the concession were quiet on the surface, they moved together in the dark.
This organization, which claims to be the Japanese Liberation Front, was developed based on the Japanese army before the war.
