In the meeting room of the Chi Army Base, Zhao Weihu turned his head and looked at Chief of Staff Wu: "What do you think?!"
"We can't just consider the situation in Bana City, we also have to focus on our own situation." Chief of Staff Wu frowned and said, "Booker and Tagu have already made their cards clear. There is a 100% chance that District 1 will also take action. It is very likely that they will use the Qingyi Bureau to control the rebels to encroach on our territory and use harassment warfare to drag us into Sri Lanka to ensure that we have no energy to take care of the situation in Bana City."
Su Tianyu nodded after hearing this: "This view is correct."
Chief of Staff Wu stood up after hearing this, stretched out his hand to the map near Sinalo and said: "There are two key points in this matter! First, how many people will the rebels send to hold us back?! In my opinion, the 125th Army alone is not enough. If they want to achieve their goal, they will definitely increase their offensive strength and send more combat troops. Second, how many people in the old Mexican army can help us?! If we rely on our Third Division and the Chi Army Headquarters alone, I think the chance is very small. We have more than 20,000 people in total, and some of them are new recruits. If we separate and fight on two fronts, the supply speed will be slow, the front line will be long, and we will not be able to support each other, and it is very likely to collapse."
Zhao Weihu and others nodded repeatedly as they listened to Chief of Staff Wu's words. His analysis was very objective and reasonable.
"With little capital, we can't attack blindly, because there is no margin for error." Chief of Staff Wu pointed to the map and said, "My personal suggestion is to wait! We need to see the situation in Bana City clearly in one or two days! Assuming that the attack on the Rondo Hotel was planned by Booker himself, he must have a combination of punches behind him!! We can establish some contact with Tagu, but it is limited to verbal support. Before District 1 reveals its true purpose, we can't move, we have to wait."
When Su Tianyu heard this, he frowned.
Chief of Staff Wu glanced at Gou Liuzi's expression and said softly, "Of course! My idea is a bit conservative. I want to be safe! It's easy to lose the best opportunity to enter Bana City. It's also possible that Tagu will be killed during the hesitation. In that case, we will indeed become more passive."
"Once Bana City is taken by Booker, we will have no chance to enter!" Xin Xiaodong interjected very objectively: "Once Warhammer enters the city, he will directly support Booker to take power. Without our internal support, there is no way we can turn the tables."
"That's right!" Chief of Staff Wu turned his head and looked at Zhao Weihu: "You are the commander, and you have to make the decision on this matter."
Zhao Weihu fell into deep thought.
"I agree with Chief of Staff Wu!" Su Tianyu stood up and said, "It's a simple choice. With the loss of Bana City, we have indeed lost a new channel for armaments, but at least it won't be affected too much for now. But if we attack rashly and are attacked on two fronts, the Chi Army may no longer exist in just three to five days."
When Chief of Staff Wu heard this, he smiled at Su Tianyu and thought that this boy was quite stable.
Zhao Weihu walked around the room with his hands behind his back, then turned to Su Tianyu and Chief of Staff Wu and said, "That's it! I will go to the military headquarters in person and talk to the commander-in-chief. I will ask him to transfer his troops to Sri Lanka to gather. We will first ensure our own safety, and then look at Bana City! During this time, we can also see clearly the opponent's cards and Tagu's reaction."
"agree!"
"agree!"
“…!”
A group of powerful people in power finalized the short-term plan in just a few words.
After the meeting, Zhao Weihu changed into casual clothes and secretly went to the government army headquarters, while Su Tianyu had a private conversation with Chief of Staff Wu.
"Xiao Su, do you think Tagu still has a chance to struggle in this situation?!" asked Chief of Staff Wu.
"If we don't take action, he will just persist at best." Su Tianyu replied without hesitation: "It's just a matter of time."
"Then tell me, how long can he last?" Chief of Staff Wu asked again.
Su Tianyu thought for a moment: "The main force of the Blackwater Army retreated to Bana City! They can only hold out for about a week?"
"I said one month!" Chief of Staff Wu replied with a smile.
“No, no, they definitely can’t hold out that long.” Su Tianyu waved his hand: “The Blackwater Legion has a total of 18,000 people! With internal and external troubles, how can they hold out for a month? This is not an ancient siege war. The intensity of modern warfare... Within an hour, an entire army may be wiped out.”
Chief of Staff Wu shook his head: "Have you seen the battlefield report of the Blackwater Corps?"
"I've seen it. There are a lot of lessons in the army." Su Tianyu replied with his hands behind his back: "It is powerful. Objectively speaking, the Blackwater Army should be regarded as the ceiling among foreign legions! ! But the numerical disadvantage is irreversible."
"Let's make a bet!" Chief of Staff Wu smiled and said, "If the main force of the Blackwater Army is not crippled within a month, then you take 20 million from the Xue family's purse and give me new equipment for the troops!"
"What if I can't hold on?" Su Tianyu asked back.
"If you can't hold on, I'll donate 5 million from my own pocket to the headquarters. How about that?"
"This isn't fair! Five hundred for two thousand!"
"Haha, your two thousand is public funds, and my five hundred is my own coffin money!" Chief of Staff Wu replied with a smile: "It's not fair to be so!"
"Okay, let's bet!" Su Tianyu agreed immediately.
…
Eight hours after the London hotel attack.
A video image of Booker was circulated among the police, judicial and various administrative departments of Bana City.
In the video, Booker sat in the office of the chief minister in the administrative building of Bana City, wearing a neat suit and expressionless. He said, "It's a pity!! Tagu Bernardo sold out the interests of our Bana City to the Orientals for personal rights! On behalf of the highest administrative body of Bana City, I hereby formally declare that I oppose Tagu's appointment as the chief minister and will launch a resistance plan from now on!! We will defend the independence and sovereignty of our hometown with steel guns and blood! Later, I will play the video evidence of Tagu's pursuit of personal rights...!"
Three more hours.
Three hundred police officers from a police department in Bana City took to the streets, holding banners and shouting slogans!!
"Overthrow Tagu's tyranny!!"
"Hand over the command of the Blackwater Legion!!"
"Severely punish the Chinese thugs who committed crimes at the London Hotel! Hand over the Chinese traitors in the city!!"
“…!”
The noisy protests soon attracted the attention of the people of Bana City. When they saw that the police officers were taking the lead in venting their dissatisfaction, they also took to the main roads and shouted like everyone else.
Tagu's personal image and reputation are indeed not as popular as those of the general manager. His hot temper and overly tough working style have long aroused dissatisfaction among some "black fans".
More and more people were shouting in the city, and at around four o'clock in the morning, a big fire once again set the Rondo Hotel on fire.
The vandalism began, and the warm and harmonious Bana City suddenly turned into a small Gotham...
