Republic of Ghana, Accra.

“Crash-”

There were layers of dark clouds, covering the entire sky, and heavy rain kept falling, as if a child was sitting on the edge of the clouds, pouring water from a bathtub.

“Rumble–”

From time to time, dazzling lightning flashed across, followed by thunder that resounded throughout the heaven and earth, as if the whole world was shaking.

Passers-by on both sides of the street were struggling to hold umbrellas and walking in a hurry.

“W-wow!”

A dozen military trucks drove past at high speed with the roar of their engines, and the water that was so turbid that it turned black instantly splashed high.

Passers-by who had no time to dodge were directly sprayed with mud.

“Are you driving so fast to reincarnate?”

“None of these soldiers is good!”

“I bought a new suit!!!”

These passers-by cursed angrily, but their curses were instantly drowned in the sound of rain.

In a cafe next door.

Several middle-aged men in suits and leather shoes crossed their legs, exposing their feet in leather shoes, and held coffee cups in one hand and newspapers in the other.

They behaved like members of the upper class of society, but the expressions on their faces were not as calm as they should be. There was only undisguised worry and fear hidden deep in their eyes.

“Sigh… the situation on the frontline is getting worse and worse.”

“I heard that the Burkinian army is only a few dozen kilometers away from us!”

“It’s not that far away, I guess it’s only ten kilometers at most!”

Just as they were talking to each other.

“Buzz buzz-”

In the sky, there was a roar that could not be suppressed by the heavy rain, from far to near.

Almost at the same time,

“Woo’er – Wu’er -”

Urgent air raid sirens rang through every street in the city.

Hear these familiar voices.

“well–”

In the cafe, there was no chaos, but sighs and lamentations immediately sounded:

“Here we go again. Fortunately, Burkina only bombed military facilities and did not target us civilians!”

“Yes, otherwise, we wouldn’t dare drink coffee here.”

“The Burginian air force is coming more and more frequently. It seems that their ground troops are really preparing to attack our capital, Accra!”

As soon as he finished speaking,

“boom–”

“Da da da–”

“boom–”

“The sound of rain is so loud, can’t it suppress the sound of bombing?”

“It’s so disturbing to hear, can’t you just calm down for a while!?”

“I feel like my ears are going to be blown!”

Just when everyone started complaining,

“I wonder which military facility was… hmm!? The sound is wrong! Why is it mixed with gunshots!?”

A person with sharp ears could hear something wrong in the voice.

The next second,

He stood up suddenly, the worry in his eyes turned into fear, and said to himself in a trembling voice:

“Holy crap! It’s not like Burkina’s ground troops have already reached the outside of the city, right!? Damn it, didn’t it say there are at least ten kilometers away? Grandma, I have to go home quickly!”

Before he finished speaking, the man had already stood up and ran out of the cafe, headlong into the heavy rain.

“No, even if there is a war, you still have to pay the damn bill, you bastard! My day’s wages are gone again!”

The waiter in the cafe rushed out immediately, but he couldn’t even see the man’s back. In the end, he could only stomp his feet in aggrieved, sad and angry way.

At this moment,

The Ministry of National Defense in Ganal is in chaos.

Some were leaving with a pile of documents, some were taking documents out of the cabinet, and some were burning documents on the spot… There were messy, hurried footsteps everywhere, and paper materials scattered on the ground.

The originally overcrowded combat conference room,

Now there are only a few major generals and one lieutenant general left, sitting in their respective positions with sad faces and sighs.

They finished smoking one cigarette after another, and the cigarette butts and ashes piled up at their feet. The whole room was shrouded in smoke like a fairyland, and they did not stop.

“well–”

Finally, the lieutenant general broke the silence in the room with a heavy sigh:

“The Buginian army has begun to attack the city. What should we do now? Do you have any good ideas?”

But the answer to him was still silence.

Several major generals lowered their heads and continued to smoke the cigarettes in their hands..

They smoked one and lit another immediately, as if they would never stop until they smoked themselves to death in this conference room today.

“You guys should have a fucking say! Smoking? Can smoking solve any problems?”

The lieutenant general roared with some collapse.

Then, as soon as he finished roaring, he lit another cigarette for himself and took a long puff.

“…”

After a brief silence,

Maybe they would really smoke themselves to death if they continued smoking, so several major generals finally put down their cigarettes and sighed:

“Sigh… Those three old guys ran faster than anyone else. Fortunately, they didn’t take the garrison away with them. Otherwise, we could all have surrendered directly!”

“It’s okay? What do you mean it’s okay? There are only 6,000 garrison troops in total, and most of them are reserves that were hastily called up. Do you expect them to stop Buginia’s tanks?”

“Lieutenant General, how about we ask the president to find the French ambassador?”

“That’s right, let the French ambassador talk to the president of Burkinia and say that we have recognized our mistakes and are willing to stop the war and compensate Burkinia for all its losses?”

“You can really ask the French ambassador to come forward and give it a try. No matter how hard Burginia doesn’t give face to the North Intelligence Agency, then France as a whole must give face to it, right?”

Having said this, several major generals looked at the lieutenant general.

“…”

Facing the looks of several major generals, the lieutenant general remained silent.

“???”

Seeing this, several major generals were a little confused, so they urged again:

“Lieutenant General, you just told us not to be silent, but now you don’t say a word?”

“That’s right, you can give me your opinion on whether this method works or not!”

“Even if you think it won’t work, you still have to give it a try, right?”

“Well……”

The corner of the lieutenant general’s mouth twitched a few times, and after another moment of silence, he answered helplessly:

“Don’t count on the French ambassador. He had already flown back to France early this morning without even saying hello to the president.”

“…”

After hearing this answer, the remaining major generals all fell silent. The cigarettes that had been extinguished were relit and held in their hands.

Smoke billows again.

“Is this just a joke? If it really doesn’t work, why don’t we just vote?”

Finally, a major general dropped the cigarette in his hand to the ground and said in a loud voice.
