Blackstone Code

When faced with Mr. Trueman's questions, Lynch still had some things to say that were not convenient to say.

It's enough for each other to know these things, but there's no point in saying them, for example, about the upcoming battle.

The Ministry of National Defense also knew what happened today, and was equally shocked. They were still surprised that they had quickly defeated the two gangs without any casualties.

Reality hit their eyes, making stars appear in their eyes.

There were six to seven hundred casualties and more than two hundred deaths. This death toll has exceeded the total number of federal deaths in World War I.

The federal death toll was one. A coast guard fell into the sea and was shattered by a propeller while on duty. The Navy posthumously awarded him a Navy Medal of Valor.

People who know about this will not talk about it, and people who don’t know will naturally not talk about it.

What makes the Ministry of National Defense even more unacceptable is that the commander this time was selected by the Strategic Command. His performance in the Strategic Command has been very outstanding. Many people think that once the war breaks out, this guy will become a major general.

His usual performance is indeed very impressive, but this time he made a huge mistake.

And ordinary soldiers suffered casualties too quickly. It can be said that they were completely stunned by the sudden enemy and did not even know how to quickly organize a counterattack.

These sharp-headed soldiers in the major military regions and units refuse to obey anyone. They all act like the world's best soldiers.

Everyone did think they would perform well, but reality punched them in the other eye.

The Ministry of National Defense is also summarizing where the problem lies. Combined with Lynch's new series of orders, they have probably found the problem.

After all, training is just training, and war is still war. Top soldiers who have trained all their lives may be useless on the battlefield because they only know how to train.

Someone will score you during training, and the one with the highest score in the end is the winner.

But no one will give you points in the war. The winner is to survive and destroy more enemies.

These are two completely different projects!

Just like today's battle, everyone stepped into the "ambush circle" without any precautions. The enemy did not hide at all, but stood on the roadside watching them, and then waited for an opportunity to launch an attack.

Saying this will shock many people, but it happened so bizarrely.

How to judge the enemy has become the first problem everyone needs to solve.

If the officers selected by the Ministry of Defense and later given additional responsibilities could not separate the enemy from the civilian population, they would never have won the war at Marillo.

You cannot tell who is the enemy and who is a civilian, which means that civilians can become enemies anytime and anywhere.

This is not an encouragement to kill without restraint, that is a problem.

Therefore, Lynch must first win over everyone's support, and then they will take action against those warlord militants and extreme racial hatreds disguised as civilians.

And Lynch also believes that someone will report these contents, maybe the Gefra people, or someone else, or even the warlords or puppet governments of Marillo.

If they were accused of "killing civilians" early on, Blackstone Security would be a bad name on the street.

But if we tell everyone in advance that these people are not civilians, but bad guys, when others do these things again, they will not get a positive response.

The wise people have already seen through all the false scams. They know clearly that those people are not civilians, but disguised as enemies of the civilians.

Look, the logic is simple and smooth.

There was silence on the phone for a while, and then Mr. Trueman said, "What are you going to do next?"

"I plan to talk to those military industrial companies. They have been relatively quiet recently. I think this is a good opportunity for us to sit down and have a good talk." Lynch did not hide his thoughts and spoke out.

The emergence of aircraft during this period has put a lot of pressure on major military industrial companies. After all, this thing can easily cost hundreds of millions in arms sales, which is much more comfortable than selling bullets.

What's more important is that once Lynch and his institute have established their position in aircraft, it will be very difficult to drive him out of this industry in the future.

Everyone has also discovered that the value of an aircraft lies not only in its changing the shape of war, but more importantly in its radiation range in terms of arms sales.

The plane can carry everything, machine guns, artillery shells, bombs and even torpedoes. If Lynch doesn't cooperate, they can produce these things themselves and don't need to worry about sales.

The military-industrial complex has been blocking this field to avoid adding more competitors, but in the end, Lynch still squeezed in.

They are now working hard to drive Lynch out. It is said that each company is developing aircraft models with their own characteristics. For example, Graeme Industries is developing a model with a larger load capacity.

The bombing on the seaside triggered some divergence of their thinking, and they are working hard to build the world's first bomber prototype.

Carrying more weight and flying higher allows more bombs to fall from the sky.

They didn't have time to disturb Lynch now, and Lynch could just talk to them.

"What to talk about?" Mr. Trueman was very sensitive. He actually didn't want Lynch to get involved with those core interest groups. He hoped that Lynch could make his allies instead of his own obstacles. "I hope you can discuss it." Things are less scary."

Lynch laughed twice and said, "You are making things too complicated. This time I plan to invite the Ministry of National Defense as well."

"I heard that Gefra and some other countries already know about our aircraft development results, right?"

Mr. Trueman was a little embarrassed, "Yes, we failed to prevent the information from flowing out."

"Then why don't we try an air-ground coordinated operation? The previous one did not reflect the advantages of this three-dimensional operation at all, and we really need such a testing ground."

"Marillo can provide us with a lot of valuable data that simulations cannot provide."

Mr. Trueman fell into deep silence. In fact, until now, the Ministry of Defense and the military have mainly discussed issues related to aircraft, focusing on two aspects.

First, whether to establish a separate service branch for aircraft.

Second, the cooperation between ground forces and air force, as well as the cooperation between navy and air force, are still theoretical.

These two issues are actually one issue. If the Air Force can show real value, then the Ministry of National Defense and the military will definitely establish the Air Force Department. They will also have enough power to persuade Congress to agree to the establishment of a third service and the expansion of Budget.

You know, once the Air Force is established, it will not be a small matter for the military, but a big matter.

An Air Force Marshal, an Air Force General, three to five Air Force Lieutenant Generals, ten to twenty Major Generals, and countless colonels, lieutenants, and non-commissioned officers...

Coupled with the construction and budget of various bases, the military's strength and power are likely to expand to twice what it is now, or even more.

The Ministry of National Defense and the military will certainly not reject Lynch's proposal. If they do not reject it, it means that other military-industrial enterprises will not reject it either.

But if these military-industrial companies want to ride on Lynch's coattails, they must show sincerity.

Mr. Trueman probably had some idea of ​​what sincerity was, and he had nothing to say about Lynch's actions.

"Try to be more restrained. I don't want to send you to court one day." Mr. Trueman said sincerely, and he really meant it.

After all, it was rare to have a friend who he could talk to and who had roughly the same goals. He didn't want Lynch to kill himself.

Lynch burst out laughing, "This day will never come. No one in this world can judge me except God!"

Mr. Trueman also laughed, "You are the most arrogant person I have ever seen..."

Meanwhile, on the outskirts of the riverside city of Marillo, troops were recuperating.

The newly appointed commander tightened the formation while being careful not to let anyone touch the camp in the middle of the night.

They often encounter this kind of thing in Amelia. Those anti-government militants are like rats. They don't even have a shadow during the day, but at night they sneak out and do bad things.

It has to be said that what they did did bring a lot of trouble and threats to the field staff in Amelia.

Therefore, guarding the camp at night became the first order of the new commander.

It didn't take long for the colonel to find a new commander, a major who was a little emotionally uncomfortable but had to obey orders from the federation.

"I don't quite understand...", he expressed his thoughts after entering the command vehicle, "We originally planned to attack in the middle of the night, why did you stop this plan."

The major glanced at the colonel. Perhaps it was only at this time that he spoke forcefully, of course, not particularly forcefully.

After all, he is a high-level talent from the strategic command center and will become a general in the future. As for the major himself, perhaps reaching the rank of colonel in this life is already his limit.

He explained a little, "Many of our people can't fight at night."

The colonel did not expect the reason to be so simple. He shook his head and retorted, "We have night street fighting training, and we have cut off the water supply and power supply. The people inside should be very disturbed now."

"Maybe he will be very angry and aggressive!" the major replied, "The company asked me to be the commander, so I can't risk letting the boys die."

"So we won't fight at night and attack tomorrow morning."

The colonel argued a few more words, "But we cleared two strongholds in this way a few days ago, and there were no casualties at all."

This was how we used to clear enemy areas in the city before, taking advantage of the dark sky to launch attacks from late night to early morning, and ended all the battles when the sky was just a little light.

The Ministry of National Defense even believed that this operation should be included in command courses as a typical case and tutorial. It was so successful and beautiful!

The major looked at him calmly, "We were dealing with a bunch of gangsters before, but now we have to deal with professional soldiers and a group of people we can't tell whether they are civilians or enemies."

"The night will become their protective color and our nightmare!"

"So I said, don't leave until daylight tomorrow!"
