Just as Governor Teglas's plane was about to leave Lonely State, Yurisses's video call finally arrived late.
The secretary looked at Teglas, whose expression was still ashen. After hesitating for a moment, she took a few steps forward and cautiously said, "Mr. Governor, it's President Yurisses ' video communication. Do you want to connect it?"
If it was an ordinary person, then the last sentence would undoubtedly be nonsense, but in the case of Governor Teglas, this was truly an inquiry.
The Howington Group is dominated by Governor Howington, Admiral Scanner of the Marine Corps and Governor Teglas of Lonely State were Howington's right-hand men, Even if his status was lower than Howington's, and very limited, He was a powerful figure who could speak on behalf of the entire Howington Group on any occasion, Admiral Scana was old and strong, He was clearly a high-ranking military officer, but he was steady, He was used to plotting and then moving, In contrast, Governor Teglass was more like a soldier. He had a radically hot temper, and when he was in a bad mood, he didn't sell anyone's face. Previously, President Yurisses's influence was neither cold nor hot towards him at his peak, but now that his position was on the verge of collapse, Teglas had the ability to ignore him even more.
The secretary carefully held the communication remote control. The current Governor of Teglas was clearly not in a good mood. He was just reporting on a routine basis. In fact, the secretary was already prepared to hang up the communication directly.
"Put it in."
Governor Teglas said expressionlessly.
"Oh, alright."
The secretary casually clicked the reject button.
'"..."
Teglas looked at his secretary in surprise, his expression extremely strange.
The secretary instinctively pressed the reject button. He had followed Teglass for many years, so he understood his immediate superior. Hence, he pressed the reject button without thinking when he heard Teglass's voice. However, after the video was rejected, his brain returned the information he had heard.
Put it in?
Was it really picked up?
The secretary's mouth suddenly widened and cold sweat instantly broke out from her forehead. She stared blankly at Teglas and her mind went blank.
Teglas's eyes gradually became fierce and angry. He was now asking for Yurisses's help. His posture should have been lower, but his secretary's posture just now was extremely powerful. The governor was depressed. Just as he was about to lose his temper, the communication video sounded again. It was still from Yurisses.
The secretary's fingers trembled and she pressed down the connection without thinking. The speed was so fast that Teglas didn't react at all. Immediately, his gloomy and angry black face appeared in front of Yurisses.
"Get out of here!"
Tigeras roared and pointed out.
Knowing that he had done two stupid things in a row, the secretary lowered her head and, somewhat frightened, turned around and rushed out of the door.
Teglas took a few quick breaths to calm himself down before slowly saying, "Sorry, Mr. President, I just went to the bathroom and missed your video call."
"I don't mind, Governor Teglas."
Yurisses's serious face appeared on the screen. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Governor Teglas, I have just rejected General Scanner's mobilization order. Now I order you to immediately restrain the soldiers of Lonely State. At the same time, let the New Silver and Louisiana Rice Army wait for orders to fight. No one is allowed to act without the orders of the War Command!"
"Sorry, I can't do that."
Teglas sneered without hesitation. "Mr. president, Admiral Scanner and I are also members of the war command, Our orders, It can also be said to be an order from the War Command, and you have to believe me. No one understands the situation in Lonely State and Dark Town better than me. Right now, we have to go to war. This is the only option. At the same time, we have to rescue Governor Howington. I think you should already know that Governor Howington has been captured by a group of drug dealers, right? "
"Of course we will fight, but this is my business. From now on, I will take over everything in Lonely State. Governor Teglas, you may not know that you have caused panic in several states because of your impulsive actions. Can you afford such an outcome?"
Yurisses said righteously.
Tigeras sneered. He asked tit for tat, "Governor Howington is now a prisoner, He was one of the deputy commanders of the war command, "You know what that means, but Mr. President, not only did you not think of a way to rescue Governor Howington when you learned that he was captured, you even organized us to send troops to counterattack Dark Town. I want to ask, if Governor Howington had an accident at the hands of those drug dealers, could you bear the consequences?"
"Huo Wendon?"
Yurisses's facial muscles twitched. "Governor Teglas, I don't want to hear that name right now. He is the sinner of the entire country. Tens of thousands of soldiers died because of his wrong decision, including the Third Field Corps, which is very important in our army. He assumed the expectations of the entire country and went to Lonemoon to direct the war. What was the result?" Teglas waved his hand in disdain. Look at this sinner. What kind of messy things did he do? He killed tens of thousands of elite soldiers and even made our country lose a portion of its territory. Although it is a small part, Dark Town is now in the hands of a group of damn drug dealers. He is guilty! The whole country will never forgive him for his crimes! Governor Teglas, you are also a member of the War Command. But in this war, I am very disappointed with your performance. Obviously, you have not fulfilled your responsibilities. You are also responsible for the situation in Dark Town to this extent. However, we can discuss these matters later. What we're talking about now is how we're going to counterattack Dark Town, not something that doesn't matter, like Hawenton, don't you think? "
Teglas stood there quietly, not moving. His fists were tightly clenched together, and his heart was sinking.
Was this going to tear his face apart?
Convicting Howington, It was the precursor to the collapse of the Howington Group, Yurisses had made it very clear that his responsibility could be suppressed and discussed later, but Huo Wenton's matter could no longer be changed. This was undoubtedly to stabilize himself or Lonely Continent. This sentence could be interpreted as Yurisses giving him a chance, or it could be interpreted as an inappropriate time. He would settle the score when the opportunity was right.
This was truly his intention to tear his face apart, without any scruples.
Tigeras took a deep breath and felt bitter.
As for the current situation and the crisis faced by the Howington Group, He didn't know before, Some of the things I know, It was even General Wu who told him on the phone not long ago, However, what General Wu said on the phone was rather shocking. And in his words, Dabinett and Yurisses were too sinister, So even though Teglas felt bad, However, there was still a glimmer of hope in his heart. He felt that what General Wu had told him, Perhaps part of it is true, But most of it should be misleading, Yurisses and Dabinett shouldn't be so ignorant of the bigger picture, In the current war, even if they fought inwardly, they should stop. Perhaps this was an opportunity to attack the Howington Group, but Teglas still felt that the other party should not chase after them. At most, taking a few high-level positions in the Howington Group should be enough to satisfy their appetite.
After all, there were too many variables involved in trying to completely annihilate another large political group. Yurisses and Dabinett shouldn't have done so as long as they weren't stupid.
But now, he was finally in despair.
Yurisses's words revealed the ruthlessness of beating Huo Wenton to death. Even the governor of this lonely state would lose his position. This clearly didn't require a few high-level positions. This was all about attacking the foundation of the Huo Wenton Group.
Yurisses and Dabinett weren't stupid, However, they were already dazzled by the benefits before them. Yurisses ' unstable status continued to replenish his strength. Due to the large number of deaths of higher-ups within the Dabinett Group, they continued to reshuffle their cards and reach a new balance within the group. Facing Huo Wenton's major mistake, the two of them had no reason not to take action.
Governor Teglas was silent for a long time before he said in a dry voice, "I don't think everything in Lonely State was Governor Howington's fault."
"Oh?"
Yurisses sneered and raised his eyebrows, but Teglas could clearly see a sense of pride in Yurisses's eyes.
Tigeras felt even more powerless. However, he continued to persevere and said, "The field corps occupies Dark Town, When they were fighting drug dealers, Governor Howington never got to the battlefield, This kind of thing, You should know, Mr. President, In addition, during the counter-offensive, If you hadn't given Governor Howington twenty-four hours, In that case, we only need to wait another two days before 70,000 to 80,000 rice troops rush to Dark Town. It's a 100% matter to retrieve Dark Town, but the time you set is too short, so Governor Howington can only mobilize 40,000 rice troops to rush back to Dark Town. We are seriously understaffed. "
"Seriously insufficient?!"
Yurisses bellowed and said angrily, "Damn it, Teglass, I really don't understand why you're saying such a thing. Hawenton has 40,000 meters in his hands. What about Dark Town?" At most, they only have 40,000 drug dealers. 40,000 elite rice soldiers with strict military training have counterattacked 40,000 mobs. You told me that there is a serious shortage of manpower? ! Bullshit! What nonsense! Do you think the 40,000 meter army can't defeat 40,000 damn drug dealers with the same number of people? Forty thousand regular rice troops could even destroy the entire Hansmitch Group. This was all because of Huo Wenton's incompetence! "
As for the matter with the field corps, it was directly ignored by Yurisses . Everyone knew what was going on with the field corps. However, Yurisses clearly did not intend to make any sense at the moment. It was all on Huo Wenton's head, and no one could do anything about it.
Teglas's mouth twitched as he continued to remain silent.
He was also wondering why the 40,000 meter army's war against 40,000 drug dealers was such a result, but if all of this was due to Huo Wenton's incompetence, Teglas would never believe it.
"So now, Governor Teglas, You don't have to talk to me about Howington anymore, From the looks of it, It would be best if he died at the hands of the enemy, The War Command has already held a voting meeting. Including me, nine of the fifteen members of the War Command agree to remove Governor Howington from his post. We do not intend to make any further efforts to rescue Howington. Furthermore, he is currently in the hands of those drug dealers. Even if we want to rescue him, can we save him? Even if Huo Wenton is removed, he is still worth a lot of money in terms of war and politics. "
Yurisses mocked.
Tigeras' heart sank to the bottom of the valley.
Nine men from the war command agreed to remove Hawington from his post?
He was also a member of the War Command, but he had never received any news of a meeting before.
Nine people...
Teglas laughed self-deprecatingly. Howington had been captured, and neither he nor Admiral Scana nor Admiral David, commander of the Air Force Transportation Command, had been notified of the meeting. That was equivalent to not voting.
Apart from the four of them, the other two who didn't vote were Earlaen and Adolf without asking. They were still unconscious and didn't vote.
In other words, apart from the four members of the war command within his own group and the unconscious Earlaen and Adolf, everyone in the war command voted in favour of removing Howington from office.
It's not just Yurisses and Dabinett working together, even the hawks are working with them.
Howington Group, dead end!
Tigeras suddenly shook his body and said blankly, "Huo Wenton's safety can be guaranteed for the time being. About an hour ago, General Wu, a drug dealer from Dark Town, offered me a condition to redeem Huo Wenton."
"What conditions?"
Yurisses was stunned for a moment and asked with some displeasure.
The president was also a little angry, Although Huo Wenton was already a sinner of the United States, he wished for Huo Wenton to die, but if General Wu made a condition, he had to consider it more. After all, Huo Wenton was once one of the giants of the United States. If his side remained indifferent even when the enemy made a condition, it would make many people's hearts go cold.
If General Wu's conditions weren't too excessive, he could only choose to redeem Huo Wenton.
"They want $1 trillion in ransom..."
Teglas' words caused Yurisses ' body to tremble.
One trillion dollars was a figure that could not be ignored by the United States. This condition was truly unacceptable and could not be denied. It would be extremely uncomfortable to put it together with Huo Wenton's identity.
Fortunately, Teglas went on to say, "and $9 trillion in war reparations, and they want to rent Lonemoon for 200 years, and if that meets their conditions, they're willing to send it back to Governor Howington and armistice the war."
Yurisses was dumbfounded.
He was dumbfounded.
He had thought that General Wu would speak out loudly, but he never thought that the other party would be so unscrupulous. This had completely broken through Yurisses's imagination.
"Are you sure this is General Wu's condition?"
In a daze, Yurisses opened his mouth and asked subconsciously.
"Yes."
Teglas nodded. Although he knew that Yurisses could not agree to this condition, he still had to say it.
"Bullshit! Bullshit! This bastard actually dares to make such a request?! Let him eat shit! Land ceding, land ceding, land ceding, land ceding, and compensation. Could it be that our country has lost the war? Ah? Is it set? War, war is necessary, I want to shatter this bunch of bastards!"
'"Mr. President, Admiral Scana and I are willing to complete this mission and destroy Dark Town within three days," Teglas said subconsciously.
Yurisses roared, then said coldly, "No need, I will send someone to take charge of this matter."
"You have twenty-four hours to stabilize the situation in Lonely Continent and the two nearby states. This is an order. Otherwise, hehe..."
On the screen, Yurisses smiled meaningfully and hung up the communication.
"Bang!"
Before Teglas could regain his senses, his secretary stumbled into his line of sight again.
"Governor... Mr. Governor..."
"I just received news that Congressman Dabinett has called a congressional meeting, and more than two hundred members have demanded the removal of Governor Howington. This... This..." the secretary said with a face full of fear. "I've just received news that Congressman Dabinett has called for the removal of Governor Howington."
Dabinett.
Yurisses .
Without a doubt, the two giants were acting separately, and their cooperation was extremely tacit.
Teglas's face was ashen. After a long time, he gritted his teeth and said, "These two bastards are so fast! Turn the plane around and we'll go back to Austin!"
