Chapter 913 The Incomprehensible Transfer Order
"What? Can't contact that adult?"
"Marcus... I know that the situation over at Jiange Fortress is very critical now, but the whereabouts of that adult are uncertain, and I don't know where he is now. Regarding your request, I will tell that adult. As for you Request to speak directly to that adult...I'm sorry, but I can't do that." The speaker's serious voice came from the other end of the microphone.
"Why?! Isn't he anxious? He even transferred the Evolutionary troops in the fortress before -" The colonel's tone suddenly rose a lot.
However, before the colonel could continue, the speaker interrupted him directly.
"Colonel Marcus! Pay attention to your attitude and words! That adult is not for you or me to comment! In addition... as the supreme commander of Jiange Fortress, do you know how ridiculous your request is... or even To describe it, it’s shameful and ridiculous! There are a full 50,000 elite soldiers of the organization and alliance in the fortress, but you put your hope on a wanted criminal who is on the run!"
"Sir Speaker!" In response to the Speaker's question, the colonel responded in a deep voice, "We only have 50,000 soldiers! Not a full 50,000! The opponent's number is three times ours! Their equipment is even better than what our soldiers use Even if a few more sets of nuclear reactor components can be transported underground, and even if the fortress's energy shield can still support it, we don't have much time left! Soldiers and officers... including me, we are suffering from radiation erosion all the time. No one knows how long the fortress can last, not even us... By that time, the Revolutionary Alliance will not even If we need to launch an attack, we just need to wait outside the fortress. When our soldiers fall down one by one due to radiation sickness, Jiange Fortress will no longer belong to the organization!"
The colonel seemed very excited, his face turned red, and a black-red blood slowly flowed out of his nostrils again and dripped on the table.
"There will be support. We are also discussing the follow-up strategic plan below. Marcus, you have to believe in the parliament. We will definitely-"
"Parliament? Please... don't treat me like a little kid, okay? Others may not know, but don't I know it yet? In front of that person, is the decision of the Council of any use? I want it now Talk to that person! Immediately! Immediately!" The colonel was almost roaring into the microphone. Fortunately, the sound insulation effect of the cubicle was good enough, otherwise, I am afraid that the entire headquarters would have heard it by now.
"Marcus! You are making trouble unreasonably!"
"Do you think I am making trouble unreasonably? I am making trouble with my own life and the lives of fifty thousand brothers? If you have the ability, don't huddle in the depths of the underground fortress and come to the surface to direct the battle yourself!"
"Maku..."
Before the speaker finished speaking, the communication was directly transferred, and a cold and steady voice rang in the colonel's ears.
"Colonel Marcus, are you looking for me?"
"Is it... Mr. Xia?" The colonel was stunned and held his breath involuntarily.
This person has an indescribable aura about him. Even if he only communicates by phone, the senior colonel can feel this pressure from the other person's tone.
Many people will mistake this kind of oppression for the "powerful spirit" formed by being in a high position all year round. But as a soldier, Marcus has been in the military and experienced countless battles. As a soldier, for him, that kind of "domineering spirit" cannot suppress him at all.
The feeling this "Xia" gave him was, to put it more bluntly,... "threat".
Although this was the first time he talked to Xia on the phone, Marcus felt a trace of heart palpitations for no reason. It seemed that the person on the other end of the phone was not a human being, but someone who could get out of the phone at any time and tear himself into pieces. Evil ghost...
Xia is dangerous... This is Marcus' first impression of him, and also the first impression of him by many members of the parliament.
Unconsciously, fine beads of sweat broke out on Marcus's back.
"It's me. Do you want Qi Lin to take action to alleviate the crisis at Jianmen Pass?"
"Yes." Although his throat was extremely dry, Marcus still fully revealed his intention, "Not only to alleviate the crisis at Jianmen Pass, I hope Qi Lin can lead most of them away." The attention of the Revolutionary Alliance army may open a gap in the siege of Jianmen Pass, allowing the defenders of Jianmen Pass to withdraw to the fortress - they are the most elite troops. If they are there, they will be able to fight in the next battle. , our chances of winning will also increase."
Xia silently listened to the colonel finish all these words. After a few seconds of silence, he said, "You should know what kind of agreement Qi Lin and I signed."
"I know...but doesn't he take action at least once a week? Now it's almost the one-week deadline, but he seems to have disappeared from the world. Is he planning to unilaterally tear up the agreement?" said the colonel.
"It's almost here... but it's not here yet? Even if he takes action at the last hour of the last day of the week, he has complied with the agreement. What's more, even if he wants to tear up the agreement, I will do something with him now. nothing."
Xia's tone was very casual, as if he didn't care at all whether Qi Lin would abide by the agreement.
"Sir, is there any way you can contact him?"
"No." Xia's answer was very decisive, without any hesitation... and without any room for negotiation.
"I understand..." the colonel said with some dejection. The fate of the defenders of Jianmen Pass has been determined...
"By the way, is there something wrong with your body?" Xia suddenly asked with some concern.
"Ah?! Please forgive me, sir, my body can still bear it, no problem! At least, there is no problem in persisting until the end of this war!"
"I don't think so. The new fortress commander is already on the way. After your handover procedures are completed, you can go back underground. In addition, in view of your excellent performance during this period, the organization will change your military rank. Jump two levels in a row and be promoted to major general. The awarding ceremony has been prepared for you. In view of the restricted conditions during the war, it may seem limited and crude..."
"What did you say?!" Marcus stood frozen on the spot. He even stretched out his fingers to pick out his ears - for a moment, he thought he might be hearing hallucinations.
Changing generals on the spot has always been a taboo for military strategists. What's more, this battle is already halfway through, and the top commander of Jiange Fortress needs to be changed at this time... Why on earth is this? !
This is not a basketball game, this is war... this is a fucking war!
Is it because he just contradicted the Speaker? Marcus quickly ruled out this possibility. It is impossible for a person like "Xia" to make a temporary decision to change personnel just because of such a few words. In fact, he would not even be angry. Angry, then there is only one possibility.
The commander's change plan had been proposed before. Even if he didn't make this call, his successor would come to the fortress headquarters not long ago with the transfer order from his superiors.
"Don't think too much. Fighting is a hard and tiring physical job. You have done a good job. The next thing can be left to the young people to take over." Xia said.
"Who is the successor?" Marcus asked feebly... He knew that he could no longer change this fact, unless... he chose to rebel.
"Brigadier General Genil transferred from the new area."
"Him?!" Of course Marcus knew who Brigadier General Genil was. He was the top military officer of the new district. His main job was to train new recruits for the Guards. He had never even been on the battlefield - -The reason why he was able to become a brigadier general at the age of thirty-two was entirely because the large consortium behind him donated a large amount of money to the organization free of charge.
Moreover... this Genil is still from Cuenca's faction. He usually doesn't quarrel with Marcus's people. It's just because there are few opportunities to meet, so there has been no conflict between the two sides.
In Marcus's knowledge, Genil is absolutely incapable of taking over the position of commander of Jiange Fortress. If Jiange Fortress is handed over to him, it will undoubtedly be self-destruction!
"What's wrong, Colonel Marcus... Oh, no, I should call you Major General Marcus now. Although you don't have the general star on your shoulder straps yet, you will soon."
"Why... Sir, I want to know... why?" the colonel asked with a wry smile.
He didn't know why Xia made such a decision... This was simply... just...
"No reason, Marcus, you should pack your things. The top-notch medical cabin has been prepared underground. It will help remove redundant radiation from your body. Okay, that's it."
After saying that, Xia cut off the communication without waiting for Marcus to answer.
…
…
Nuclear explosion zone, safety well.
"What kind of genius operation is this? Changing things on the spot...ah, this is already half the battle. Have you changed the fortress commander? And also replaced him with a loser who doesn't know anything?" Qi Lin came over after listening to the mastermind's message. After receiving the information, he said in surprise.
"The reliability of this intelligence has reached 100%. That Brigadier General Genil should have already gone through the handover procedures of command with the former fortress commander Marcus." The mastermind said.
"This summer... there is a problem... there is definitely a problem... He, could he be a cyborg? A cyborg controlled by the first mastermind? Otherwise, even a fool or a waste will not be able to walk out one after another. So many bad moves! First, he transferred all the Evolutionary troops in the fortress, and then changed the fortress commander and replaced him with a loser - it is impossible for him not to know the importance of Jiange Fortress. This war is very important to the organization. It is crucial to the fate of the entire human race. This goes beyond the scope of interests and machinations. If he is not a cyborg controlled by the mastermind and deliberately wants the organization to lose this war... all this is too unfair. That makes sense!" Qi Lin spoke very fast. He really couldn't figure out what this guy named "Xia" was doing... Compared with him, Qin was much more normal.
Can this also be regarded as the top elite that is unique in the human world? Could it be that this guy's brain got water after sleeping in the life support cabin for a long time... and he took physiological maintenance fluid? Or when you woke up, the waste fluid used to replace blood and tissue fluid in the cranial cavity was not drained out?
If this guy was really one of the nine people who founded the organization, the organization would have been destroyed in the Third World War, right?
"Xia is not a cyborg. If the First Mastermind created a cyborg that was exactly like Xia and sent it into human society, I would definitely be able to find out. But it turns out that Xia has never been replaced. He is who he is, a natural human being who has just woken up from the life-support cabin and has lived for more than a hundred years," the mastermind said.
"That's impossible! Unless...he really doesn't want to win."
"If we exclude his identity and look at this series of events, I will also identify him as a spy planted by the First Mastermind within human beings. But the problem is that if the First Mastermind attempts to plant a spy among humans, A spy of this level will definitely not be able to hide from me, just like I can only let you stay at Stronghold Zero but cannot bring you back to any city controlled by the mastermind. Therefore, between Xia and the mastermind, The relationship between them can basically be ruled out.”
"He is neither a cyborg nor a spy bribed by the mastermind... Then what exactly is he going to do? By the way, please analyze, if the organization loses this war and loses the Jiange Fortress, how will the subsequent situation develop? ! I definitely think that through this method, we can determine the true intention of this Xia!" Qi Lin had an idea and suddenly said to the mastermind.
"If Jiange Fortress falls, the Revolutionary Alliance will obtain a complete ground fortress and use this fortress as a vanguard camp to launch attacks on the underground organization-controlled areas. In the underground battlefield on the other side, the Revolutionary Alliance will also use what has been obtained The advantage is advanced step by step, exerting pressure on the organization from two directions of the battlefield at the same time."
"Then because the organization invested too much military power in the Jiange Fortress, the losses were too great, and it was difficult to resist the overwhelming Revolutionary Alliance Army, and they were retreating steadily, right?" Qi Lin continued.
"Yes, if Jiange Fortress is lost, the organization's chances of winning in this war will drop to less than 20%. The stakes they have invested in this fortress are really too great... The importance of Jiange Fortress can be used An old Chinese proverb can be used to describe it - 'If you don't succeed, you will be benevolent'. There is no retreat for the organization. If you are not careful, everything will be lost."
"...Is this 'Xia' mentally distorted? Does he want to see the organization he created... destroyed like this?"
