Chapter 436, act according to the script
"Is this your Foreign Intelligence Agency?"
"Is this your investigation bureau?"
When they met again, Arnault and Amanda asked each other questions at the same time.
But from the looks of it, it's neither.
What they mentioned was, of course, what happened on the Baishuo Star Port where fire broke out in the night sky tonight.
There is no specific information yet, but something big has obviously happened on the starport, and it was caused by the Alliance.
If not, there would be no instructions from their superiors to let them continue.
"It's not us, is it the Military Intelligence Agency? But Martin has lost contact..." Amanda was confused.
"Either he is actually fine and just moved; or there are other agents from the Military Intelligence Agency operating; or it is other departments of the alliance." Arnault gave several conjectures, "But these are irrelevant. What we have to do is to implement the instructions from our superiors. Now that we have ensured follow-up reinforcements, our operations must continue."
"I understand." Amanda nodded lightly, but immediately felt embarrassed, "It's just that it's easy to say, but too difficult to do. The politicians and business owners I have contacted have been shaken, and many of them have contacted No, some are even doubting my identity. I'm afraid I can't use my old identity anymore."
And these thousands of people, one tenth of them, are only at the level of armed workers, without much military training.
But now that they are all shaken, a lot of help is gone.
Despite the fact that the Planetary Defense Force is beaten to pieces by the greenskins every day, in fact they are really not weak, and they are at least the regular army on the planet.
Not only the defenders in the government building, but the Planetary Defense Forces outside also obviously noticed.
Arnault didn't explain much and just said: "Look at the sky."
Seeing hope, the morale of the defenders in the building was revived.
Some police forces were tied up; some private armed forces were not used; some supplies even came from them.
The artillery began to fire fiercely, and the infantry, under the cover of the artillery, charged into the government building in the rain.
Although the infantry regiment's first trial ground attack was somewhat unsmooth due to heavy rain and was blocked by the elite backbone of the alliance, the next time a larger-scale artillery bombardment followed an infantry charge would definitely not be able to stop it.
He only had one thought: Where are the reinforcements?
Just as I was thinking about it, a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky.
Not only did the police step up their offensive, but the vanguard from the Planetary Defense Force also arrived.
Under the suddenly brightening clouds, he saw many dark spots.
Is it really going to end?
A cannonball had just exploded in the next room, making one of his ears slightly deafened. Arnaud was now completely helpless.
In addition, after daybreak, the army is likely to move in.
Hearing this, Arnault also felt troubled.
Arno Chenko, who personally led the team to guard the government building in Fruit City, was already in a hard fight.
In the early morning, it was already dark. The light rain that fell at night turned into a heavy rain when it was supposed to be dawn. The sky was covered with dark clouds, rain poured down, and there was lightning and thunder.
...
Apparently becoming impatient, they launched a violent attack on government buildings.
Although it only looks like an infantry regiment, the changes it brings are overwhelming.
Under the heavy artillery bombardment, the defense of the government building was a bit unsustainable this early in the morning. Those armed personnel with insufficient training began to suffer large-scale casualties, and there was a vague sense of morale collapse.
what is that?
There was a light in his eyes!
It's true that they captured Shuoguo City Hall, but Governor Baishuo was not there, and even most of the senior government officials had fled long ago.
Arnault couldn't think of anything better.
The entire riot probably only numbered 50,000 people; only one-tenth of them dared to take up arms and fight. When the riot turned into an armed conflict with the planet's local police force, most of the rioting people had dispersed in fear.
What's more, the enemy also took out artillery.
Then, a lot of cheers came from the communication channel!
Apparently, they saw it too.
But even so, the riot was still vigorous until the third day. Another core element was the efforts of the Alliance's Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
That's reinforcements!
"For now, we can only defend the government building."
Although the riot was huge, and they used it as a cover to assassinate Zelos, the leader of the sector, in fact, the real core manpower was not many.
Grabbing the walkie-talkie nearby, he shouted excitedly: "Comrades! Hold on! Our reinforcements are coming!"
What to do?
Arnault didn't know either.
There were doubts in the communication channel. Some people thought that this was Arnault's deception to boost morale.
"I hope that the support from superiors will be strong enough and come in time."
Our side mainly relies on armed mobs, which is really unstoppable.
If there were not some backbone agents from the Investigation Bureau and the Military Intelligence Bureau among the rioters, as well as some elite special forces mobilized by the Military Intelligence Bureau to support them, there would be no need for the army to enter the scene, and the police station alone would be able to suppress it.
Against the wall, rainwater fell down from the damaged wall.
The 105-caliber artillery fired in the rain was not particularly fierce, but it was obviously not something that the armed mob without the means to deal with could contend with.
There is a diplomat from the alliance who is constantly running here; the Foreign Intelligence Bureau under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, that is, Amanda and her colleagues, have shaken some local dignitaries and wealthy businessmen, and the help they provided secretly also played a key role.
They also fought back frantically at the incoming enemy troops from windows and cracks blown out of the building.
But this was not enough to stop the enemy from entering.
The artillery cover still made the defenders in the building unable to raise their heads.
However, the next moment, a whistling sound covered up the sound of rain.
Immediately afterwards, a violent explosion occurred about ten kilometers away.
Arnaud climbed to the window and looked in the direction of the sound.
That was the artillery position of the Planetary Defense Force. At this moment, it was subjected to continuous missile attacks and machine gun bombardment, and it had turned into a sea of fire.
What flashed past in the rain was a formation of Alliance fighter jets led by eight 'Kirin' fighter jets and followed by many Wind Falcons.
After completing the task of destroying the artillery array, these air fighters began to sweep away the local defense forces who were still attacking the government buildings.
The large-caliber cannon plowed through the ground, and the Falcon was fine. The 40mm-caliber cannon hit a person, which only killed the person, hit the concrete floor, and made a small shallow crater the size of a washbasin;
But the performance of the weapons loaded on the 'Kilin' is much exaggerated.
Not only does it have a larger caliber 55mm cannon, it can carry twice as many missiles as the Wind Falcon, it can also be equipped with multiple rocket launchers to enhance its firepower. The most terrifying thing is that it can have these things at the same time without using Like the Wind Falcon, it can only be installed as an option.
At the same time, it also has a serious reflector on it - this is S-type firepower with naval gun specifications, not a castrated version of an anti-aircraft gun or a vehicle secondary gun.
When this 'reflector' kept bombarding the ground with a frequency of once every two to three seconds, the area in front of the government building turned into a light hell!
The huge heat brought by the high-energy laser not only destroys and perforates the core of the direct hit, but also causes fatal damage to surrounding creatures due to the dissipated heat energy. Just the air strikes from the 'Kirin' and 'Feng Falcon' had already destroyed this infantry regiment.
Of course, they were not all killed, but when the front-line combat troops were exposed to air strikes and suffered heavy losses, and the main fire support artillery in the rear was eliminated, then the infantry regiment was equivalent to being destroyed.
They no longer have any offensive capabilities.
At the same time, a large number of black spots began to fall in the sky.
They were transport planes one after another. After landing, a large number of airborne troops filed out of them.
Arnaud already had a bright smile on his face.
He recognized the unit's insignia.
This is the Alliance's 31st Special Airborne Division, one of the Alliance's ace units.
After the airborne troops landed, they began to clean up the enemy troops still scattered in the combat area. At the same time, they were still firing airborne vehicles and artillery pieces from the transport plane.
It's hard to imagine that the airborne troops can carry so much equipment...
Although there are still some questions in my mind, such as why Baishuoxing's air defense system did not fire when these airborne troops and alliance fighter planes raided.
But, at least I am safe here.
His mission is now considered complete.
...
Milia De Jong was sitting in the Fruit City Air Defense Command, and right next to her, some people with masks were cleaning up the scene.
Whether it's a corpse or a surrender, it needs to be sorted out.
"The government building was not lost, right?"
"Report to captain, no, the 31st Division came at the right time."
"Okay." After thinking for a moment, Milia asked in passing: "Is the young man from the Investigation Bureau named Arno who attracted your attention also okay?"
"fine."
"Yeah." In response, Milia stopped paying more attention.
As long as he's not dead.
In fact, the actions of the three rounds were of great help.
The assassination of Zelos left the sector leaderless and saved trouble; it set off a three-day riot, and with the influence of the assassination operation, all political forces on the entire planet turned their attention to this place.
This provides good cover for the witcher's actions.
They had already prepared the action and took this opportunity to launch it.
The primary goal is the star port.
Sneaking into the star port were two phoenix tactical teams that were mobilized through the resources of the demon hunters. Under their leadership, almost fifty demon hunters launched the initial attack. Then, through planetary trade, they contacted an imperial caravan ship that had switched to the alliance and helped the alliance deliver the two divisions to the star port.
By working together internally and externally, Baishuo's star port was quickly captured.
The explosion and fire in the sky that Arno saw at night was this action.
Actually, it was a little accident. According to the best estimates, there shouldn't even be that kind of explosion, and the matter should be resolved quickly and quietly.
Then, one of the two skeleton divisions who were delivered to Baishuo quickly came to the ground through the space elevator between the star port and the ground, and controlled the ground part of the star port.
There, it is also the suburb of Fruit City.
They will establish a defensive line here, and then move into the city.
The ones who came down ahead of them were the two Phoenix teams.
After they landed, they immediately rushed to the air defense headquarters in Fruit City.
At the same time, the demon hunters had already made arrangements at the air defense headquarters.
After the two sides joined forces and quickly took control of the headquarters again, another merchant ship assisting the alliance in attacking launched dozens of transport aircraft and Kirin and Feng Falcon fighter jets in the planet's orbit.
These transport aircraft quickly and directly launched the elites of the 31st Airborne Division onto the battlefield.
Qilin and Feng Falcon arrived first to clear the ground, and then the airborne troops landed and directly controlled the center of the city.
Next, the more than 30,000 people of the Airborne Division will use the fastest speed to determine the location of Governor Baishuo based on the intelligence integrated by the demon hunters and the alliance's three major external intelligence agencies, and quickly launch an assault.
At this time, Governor Baishuo may have just received the news that the star port was lost and the vanguard of the defense force was destroyed.
Whatever his reaction was, it was too late now.
He didn't even have a chance to join the Planetary Defense Force who was about to enter the city. Milia was confident about this.
Fruit City's air defense headquarters has now become the alliance's operational command center on the surface.
Milia sat there, posting one message after another in an orderly manner.
Her power only lasts for two or three days.
Later, when the overall situation has been decided, the military and political officials of the alliance who are already on the way will come to this world.
The political affairs officer of the alliance will announce here that the leader of the Zima regrettably died in a civilian riot; all of this was caused by Baishuoxing's poor political governance and his betrayal of imperial laws. Governor Baishuo wants to Take full responsibility.
The Alliance will use the authority granted by the star domain government to remove the current Governor Baishuo and judge him for his crimes.
The new Governor Baishuo will sign the Seven Horse Agreement and call on all planets in the entire Zima Sector to sign...
These things have not happened yet, but they are scripts that have already been written.
Under the will of Governor Gu Hang, this script will definitely be staged.
...
When the entire Baishuo Star was completely controlled according to the established plan, half of the main force of the combined fleet led by Yelicia also entered the star area.
Earlier, various planets in the Zima Star Region would definitely react violently to this.
This is a serious provocation.
But now, they are as quiet as quail.
What happened at Baishuoxing shocked them.
That is the planet with the largest population, the best development, and the strongest military power in the entire star region.
But how come the leader of the sector died after a simple civilian riot? With a little effort from the alliance, Governor Bai Shuo was arrested on his own planet and sentenced to death?
