Ultimate Weapon of Magic and Science

"Member of the Austrian independence movement?"

Roland raised his head, his face full of incredible.

"How could they be?"

There are more or less independent voices in Charlieman's territories. Among them, the independence tendency of Osttoria is the most obvious, but no matter how fierce it is, it has always remained at the level of political temptation. Nowadays, there is such a big deal, which of course makes people unbelievable.

However, the thick two stacks of confessions obtained through torture were placed before the eyes. In order to prove their authenticity and credibility, the bright red handprint was also pressed.

Stasi has developed drugs such as "confessions" very early, and the operation magician is also proficient in exploring the memory of interrogation subjects, but as a sadistic and killer scorpion is more prone to long torture-this process actually does Not long, rarely exceeding 1 hour. But during this time, the prisoners can clearly realize that this pain, humiliation, despair, terror, shame is endless, they cannot escape from this circular hell, and their judgment will be lost a little bit, and eventually The tortured will collapse, and they will fully understand their only hope is to confess.

The ancient but effective practice, while also satisfying the special sexual scorpions of the scorpion, is almost perfect except for a little **** violence.

Looking at the incomplete red palm, Roland raised his eyebrows, temporarily aside the question of whether the confession was true and whether the questioning method was humane, and moved to the next question.

"How can this be?"

How often do the miserly habit who are used to punching their guns and can’t live without the concert have action and courage?

Anyone mentioned Ostoria. The following images will unconsciously emerge: the young master with a strong literary atmosphere, the bright appearance, the underwear with seams and patches, the dullness that shows the artistic atmosphere of the music, the expression of anger with Chopin’s piano music, the sweet to the greasy snack... …Wait, but among them, there is only a lack of "valour and bravery" and "rebellion."

This... sounds similar to the "Macaroni Soldier" on the border with Imil, and it seems to be a "peace-loving" army. In fact, this is not the case. Ortholian soldiers and subordinate officers do not lack courage and quality. But most of the middle and senior officers who climbed up by their background and seniority were somber. Before the expedition begins. After Charlieman's Army Department ordered 25 over-age General Ostorian to retire, the average age of General Ostorian still hit an astonishing 63 years old. It is conceivable what an army commanded by such a group of grandpa grandpas will look like.

Conservative, sluggish, indecisive, and slow-moving-the characteristics of any army that is behind the times can be found in them, and this group of heroes is expected to be more than brave. Soldiers with inadequate ability go to hijack the car. Waging the war of independence even further? It might as well be more realistic to expect Charlemagne to disintegrate overnight.

"We carefully checked the two confessions. And compared with the confessions of other prisoners, there is basically no problem in authenticity. After further interrogation, we can be roughly sure. The Austrians have been forced to take decisively. The point of action."

Scorpion handed over another document that had just been stamped with a "confidential" stamp, and after reading a few lines, a breath of cold air rushed from the bottom of Roland's feet.

If the "wave throwing" soldiers during the offensive and defensive war in the Riga fortress can still use the "military needs" reason to shun the past, the special investigation mission of the Prince's Secret Organization is stationed in Ostoria, doing whatever they want in the name of the investigation, it will be considered not loyal enough or Military officers and civilian staff with independent thoughts are suspended from custody and even arrested, but the term "death" can only be described.

The crown prince used the front-line commander’s right to appoint and remove local officials to replace a large number of Austrian local officials, and replaced them with loyal and **** people who were loyal to him. The business is unfamiliar, and some do not even speak an Austrian language. Thanks to their efforts, the nobility and civilians of Ostoria were full of resentment, and their recognition of independent thoughts continued to increase.

What's more terrible is that Ostoria and the crown of St. Eastman are closely related, from the nobles to the civilians, and the exchanges and in-laws between the two places are quite frequent. After the crown prince suddenly built a "wall of wrong thinking" to block the border of Wang Guanling, tens of thousands of families fell into a situation of separation of flesh and blood, and they could not connect with each other. This caused great public outrage and led to rumors. Some say that the crown prince brought the army to burn the Buda city, some say that the army loyal to the crown prince is engaged in a massacre, some say that Charlieman soldiers take children for breakfast every day, catch the virgin at night and then kill, then get It's a late night... Various rumors will eventually be accompanied by a chilling word-when they eat the crown and wipe it clean, it will be Ostoria's turn for the next one.

Anyone who is educated and capable of independent thinking will realize the absurdity of these rumors if they think about it for a moment. Apart from being used to scare ignorant women and children, not many people will believe it.

But Ostoria at the moment is not Alfheim, whose national literacy rate is almost 100%, nor Charlie Man, whose political situation looks good and stable, and everyone is busy making a fortune. The majority of the population of this country is ignorant and easy-to-trust citizens and peasants. Most of them are illiterate, have a sluggish life and lack of entertainment. Even if they are ridiculous rumors, they will talk for a long time. What's more, looking at the overbearing Charlemagne's local bureaucracy, who likes to eat and drink, **** everything that looks valuable and the **** of the Charlemagne soldiers, it is really difficult for people to chase these barbaric, chasing women everywhere, and poor Charlie. Manda Bing is connected with the noble army dedicated to the great cause of mankind in official propaganda. It looks more like a devil in rumors.

"The power of the rumor is worth a fleet."

Scorpion opened his hand and commented that the corner of his mouth slightly raised.

"The frightened and ulterior Austrians reached an agreement, they contacted the front-line troops and asked the Viscount Bellegade to lead a commando team to gather the deserters who lived on the nearby robbery train and attacked the consolation group. The special train. The noble girls and His Royal Highness on the train were taken as hostages. The request to Charlemagne. The content is—"

"Release the detained Austrian political prisoners, end the military control of Austria, and seek a certain degree of autonomy."

Rubbing his forehead, Roland said the answer in one breath.

"You already see that part?"

"No, it's speculation."

Terrorists take hostages by doing nothing more than three things: ransom, releasing members of detained organizations, and forcing the government to accept their political claims. The organizer of this operation is not a real deserter and has little interest in ransom. Combined with the information just now, it is not difficult to judge the conditions that it may propose.

but--

"It's troublesome now."

"It is true."

It was Nona who took the call, and the spider on the side nodded in agreement.

The attack on the train has failed. This action itself has little meaning. But the tendency of terrorism that it showed was a real trouble.

Generally speaking, terrorism is to create public panic through all kinds of extreme violence and then realize its claims. For example, kidnapping, assassinating senior government officials or economic giants, and publicly killing several such big names. Boast of its force. Other people who cherish their lives do not like it. He also had to close his mouth—regardless of the effect, the initial terrorists were convinced and intoxicated. This coincides with this incident. Then, like most similar incidents, it did not succeed and did not achieve the desired results.

Of course, even if they succeed, they will not achieve the desired results. Just like the bald eagle, whose chrysanthemum was exploded by Uncle Deng in 9/11, did not withdraw from the Middle East, but plunged into Iraq and Afghanistan to fight terrorism. If Bellegard succeeded, Charlemagne would not be able to agree to any conditions. The Kingdom government and consortia who were angry and angry would only retaliate with more terrible means. Perhaps they had already received the report at the moment, and they were working on retaliatory measures.

If the hostage plan suffers setbacks, and the separatists who are hit by it are willing to halt, then it’s best. However, in the course on security warfare in military schools, the teaching materials and instructors told Roland that terrorist organizations often do not die at this point. They are very likely to escalate their actions and change their targets from strictly protected high-level to ordinary. People, so-called indiscriminate terrorist activities.

Cities, villages, schools, theaters, hospitals, municipal facilities—any crowds can be targeted, and they are the front lines of the battlefield against terrorism. Moreover, it is different from the regular battlefield where the regular army must regularly provide supplies in order to continue fighting. A handful of clever terrorists, if they have enough money in hand, they basically don't have to worry about logistics, and make a large number of victims in a semi-permanent way. If this situation continues, the people's dissatisfaction with the government will continue to grow, and then it will become pressure. One cannot handle it well, but it will make the government collapse.

Nothing is more headache-prone than a protracted war against terror that causes people to lose money. What's more, even if the terrorist organization is temporarily destroyed by force, without fundamentally eliminating the breeding ground for terrorism, the ghost of terrorism will continue to hover over everyone's head.

"Contact Rudes immediately, report the situation here, and indicate that they should immediately investigate the arbitrariness of the crown prince in Ostoria and the crown of St. Eastvan."

Without much hesitation, Roland made a decision immediately. Now is not the time to take Prince Wang's face into consideration. God knows what else the Ostorians under high tension will do. And Ostoria is already in this state. What is the situation of the highly blocked Saint Eastman crown collar is more worrying, if it is worse than Ostoria...

"This... I'm afraid I will ignore it."

The flower mantis, who had been sitting in front of the communication gem, turned around and spoke timidly.

"I have just sent the latest front-line combat briefing. The main force of the expeditionary army led by Prince Wang successfully conquered Daugavpils. He was intersecting the Bauska region and threatened the rear of the Riga fortress. The Army Department submitted the promotion of Prince Wang to the rank of Field Marshal. Apply for...that..."

Roland clenched her lips. With this military victory, any request to investigate the Crown Prince would become outdated and might even be considered ulterior motives. Even if the investigation is conducted to find out the problem, the crown prince can fool the past with reasons such as "to ensure victory". In order to maintain the image of the royal family and the consistent "political correctness", the investigation will be gone. Finally, Roland who applied for the investigation will be treated as a jealous and envious villain...

This victory is really too late.

"You can't control that much, and immediately inform Rudes! Plus a sentence, "It's too late to wait until the crown takes the lead!", quickly, send it immediately!"

The startled flower praying mantis immediately turned around and started to operate the communication gem. The red gem suddenly flickered, and an uncontrollable anxiety flooded the young man's heart.

Others may think that even without the formal investigation team, the unauthorized addition of such alarmist words is really a big deal, but Roland does not feel that he is too reckless.

Perhaps the situation of the Saint Esteban crown collar is not yet clear, but since the Ostolians have already begun to take action, the crown collar situation may not be optimistic, it may not be worse, but it is certainly not much better. .

He did not know what role his guardian played in this incident, but Roland was able to assert that he always liked to play with the balance of power between the forces of all parties, and directed the situation to Li Lin, which was beneficial to Yalfheim. There can be no movement.

There may not be much time left for Rudes.

Windy month 22, sunny.

The clear blue sky, blossoming white clouds, and pleasant breeze-a beautiful, ordinary Sunday. It's suitable for rest, camping, lazy sleep, and it is also suitable for people to gather to do things that usually don't have time and opportunities.

On the podium, the Minister of the Army of Thalye was talking about the significance of the crown prince’s victory to this war, to the royal family, to Charlemagne, to the human camp, and to the long-term political struggle The significance of the army at a disadvantage.

Richey looked intently at the landing general's saliva, his gloomy face without any expression.

He looked very engaged, but his loose eyes showed that the cardinal's mind was not on the podium.

(The battle seems to be fairly smooth.)

There was a word of comfort on the long, tight nerves.

Richelieu’s relationship with Prince Edward and the Minister of the Army is relatively rigid. This is a well-known thing, but only a few people know that the Cardinal is pursuing pure justice, not enemies against them for personal gain.

Anyone’s heart has its own priority. The crown prince puts the highest priority on the "throne of the supremacy and unfettered", the army minister has always struggled for "family prosperity, flying yellow and reaching," the kingdom’s prime minister, red dress Bishop Richelieu wholeheartedly maintained and was loyal to the country "Charlemagne".

Everything he did was for Charlemagne. For him, the only criterion for distinguishing good from bad is whether it is good for the country.

Because he is a pure nationalist~www.wuxiaspot.com~ he can put pious faith behind the national interest, and even cooperate with pagans or heretics without any burden when necessary. In contrast, it is a trivial matter to keep the ordinary face of the army minister’s villain, and the prime minister did not even notice this.

Overcoming Daugavpils is one of the few good news of the human camp recently, which is enough to boost the morale of the previous downturn. If you take Bauska with this momentum, the Riga Fortress will be in danger of being isolated. The situation of the Principality will become more difficult. On the other hand, Charlemagne could gain prestige, honor, and a powerful army that has been tested by actual combat... This is simply fascinating, and the always stable bishop has changed from the original caution to the cautious optimism.

(This is indeed a remarkable achievement. According to the situation, after the crown prince fights a few more victories, grant him Marshal Scepter. Premature promotion is not conducive to his growth and will also cause difficulties for future rewards...but here prior to--)

Holding the scale of the seal, the bishop's gaze turned to the corner, and a leisurely silhouette came into view.

(What is he thinking about?)

Peeking into the economic giants who maintained a mild attitude as usual not far away, the cardinal's fist hidden under his sleeve was slightly clenched. (To be continued...)
