Chapter 294 Urgent Telegrams
"report!"
"Urgent telegram from the capital!"
After taking the telegram from the communications soldier, Li Weijian, the commander of the 16th Rapid Reaction Division, frowned immediately.
"Commander, is there some bad news again?"
Seeing that Li Weijian's expression was not quite right, Zhao Xuehui, the chief of staff of the 16th Rapid Reaction Division, quickly asked him what was wrong.
“Take a look for yourselves…” With that, Li Weijian slammed the urgent telegram that had just arrived from the capital onto the table, gesturing to Liu Daxing, deputy commander of the 16th Rapid Reaction Division, and Zhao Xuehui, chief of staff, who were standing nearby, to read the contents of the telegram themselves.
...................................
“This…” Liu Daxing looked helplessly at Li Weijian, whose brows were furrowed: “His Majesty personally issued a strict decree that our 16th Rapid Response Division must not act rashly under any circumstances.”
"Furthermore, it was specifically emphasized that long-range strike positions should not be deployed outside the city to prevent the Wukan militia inside the city from becoming desperate and endangering the hostages, as well as to generate negative public opinion that is unfavorable to the imperial court..."
"Is the imperial court really going to compromise and make concessions to the Wukan tribal militia in the city?"
"Report! It's an urgent telegram from the capital!"
Before Li Weijian could even speak, a second urgent telegram arrived............................
“It’s from Commander Xu.” Li Weijian casually handed the second urgent telegram to Deputy Division Commander Liu Daxing.
After reviewing the telegram, Liu Daxing handed it to Chief of Staff Zhao Xuehui.
"Commander, it seems that Commander Xu is worried that something might go wrong with our 16th Rapid Reaction Division, so he sent another urgent telegram."
"Commander Xu seems to have guessed that our 16th Rapid Reaction Division might take strong measures to save face for the imperial court and uphold the honor of our Great Qian Zhenguo Army..."
"It seems Commander Xu understands the division commander quite well; he's even anticipated the division commander's thoughts..."
Chief of Staff Zhao Xuehui helplessly raised the telegram in his hand: "The wording is unprecedentedly harsh."
"Commander, what should we do now?"
“What else can we do…” Before Li Weijian could speak, Deputy Division Commander Liu Daxing interjected, “Commander Xu’s urgent telegram has already made it very clear.”
"If our 16th Rapid Reaction Division disobeys orders and ruins a major event for the court, our entire division will be disbanded because of this!"
"Furthermore, our 16th Rapid Reaction Division will be charged with crimes such as 'treason' and 'disobeying the emperor'..."
"This is no longer something that the three of us can just step forward and take the blame for and get away with."
"According to Commander Xu's orders—if we dare to disobey, our entire 16th Rapid Reaction Division will be nailed to the cross of shame......................."
It turned out that, for the sake of security and confidentiality, the capital did not disclose in the telegram to the 16th Rapid Reaction Division, which was in charge of on-site handling, the final execution plan that had been personally approved by Shen Moshen.
As the saying goes, it's not the ten thousand that's scary, but the one in ten thousand.
If the urgent telegram sent from the capital to the 16th Rapid Reaction Division were intercepted and deciphered, it would inevitably directly affect the court's entire plan and plunge the Great Qian Dynasty into an endless vortex of public opinion.
-------------------------------------
"Order the heavy artillery units to withdraw from their positions..."
Li Weijian sighed: "Perhaps the court has already made other arrangements."
"If we continue to disobey orders and bombard the country, it might ruin important matters for the court."
"Moreover, if our 16th Rapid Reaction Division really did disobey orders, it wouldn't be something that the three of us could solve by stepping forward and taking the blame."
"Execute the order. Leave one regiment to continue the siege, and all other troops shall retreat to a safe area."
“These remnants of the Xiluo tribe and the Wukan armed forces are a bunch of desperate people. They could detonate bombs in the city at any time.”
"Since the imperial court has repeatedly issued strict orders forbidding us from taking any rash actions."
"All we can do now is try to minimize the risks."
"Leave only one regiment; the rest of the troops must withdraw quickly! The action must be swift!"
"Every minute you stay increases the danger."
"That's all we can do now..." Deputy Division Commander Liu Daxing nodded helplessly.
"report!"
"Urgent telegram from the capital..."
Li Weijian had just issued the latest instructions when the third urgent telegram arrived...................
-------------------------------------
After half an hour.
Li Weijian held a high-profile press conference in front of numerous media reporters, and specially arranged for Tanert TV to broadcast the entire event live to ensure that Morse Yarlin and others in the East District could clearly see the actual situation of the press conference.
At the press conference, Li Weijian showed the audience two urgent telegrams sent from the capital to the 16th Rapid Reaction Division.
"Based on the principles of putting people first and protecting the personal safety of citizens of the Great Qian Dynasty, the imperial court has repeatedly told us to exercise maximum restraint."
"Therefore, to show our sincerity, we will withdraw the entire division."
"Until the imperial court makes a final decision on the Tanlt City crisis, our 16th Rapid Reaction Division has been ordered to take no action against Tanlt City in any form!"
"I think everyone has already seen the court's sincerity and determination to protect the personal safety of the citizens of Daqian..........................."
"Commander Li, based on the latest information you just released to us, does this indicate that the imperial court is ready to agree to the conditions set by the Wukan tribe?"
Has the capital city decided to compromise and make concessions to ensure the safety of the hostages?
"Commander Li, the urgent telegram from the capital specifically mentioned that your division should not disobey orders, and the wording is more severe than ever before."
"Does this mean that—if the capital hadn't sent this urgent telegram, your esteemed commander would actually have been prepared to disobey orders?"
"There is news that your division's heavy artillery units had previously pointed their guns at Tanlt City, but have now withdrawn."
"Did Commander Li previously intend to issue orders for long-range artillery fire?"
When faced with reporters' questions, Li Weijian answered the camera without hesitation: "To be honest, if it weren't for the strict order from the capital, I would have indeed intended to issue a long-range artillery order."
"Because, after our repeated analysis and assessment, given the current situation in Tanlt City, the possibility of us successfully carrying out an armed rescue of the trapped hostages is almost zero."
"Given the incredibly arrogant attitude Morse Yarlin displayed earlier, I did indeed consider risking being court-martialed to make these desperados who dared to challenge the might of the Great Qian Dynasty pay a heavy price..."
Then, Li Weijian changed the subject: "However, I cannot let the entire division suffer because of my own order!"
"Morse Yarlin!"
"I know you are watching this press conference right now."
"I admit—it's highly unlikely that our 16th Rapid Reaction Division will do anything to you this time!"
"But I, Li Weijian, am making this clear in front of everyone today—please, don't let us ever run into each other again!"
"Otherwise, you definitely won't be as 'lucky' next time..."
After publicly addressing Morse Yarlin, Li Weijian went on to answer other questions from reporters: "The capital is making a final effort."
"The imperial court has repeatedly emphasized that the culprit behind everything is this group of remnants of the Western Luo, led by Morse Yarlin!"
"We hope that the Wukan militia, which has been misled by the government, can seriously consider the court's suggestions from the perspective of the entire Wukan ethnic group."
As the saying goes, "To err is human, to forgive divine!"
"This will be the last chance for the Wukan people."
"As for whether the imperial court has made a final decision to compromise, I have no idea."
"The main purpose of this press conference is to tell the armed personnel in Tanlt City - do not harm the hostages."
"Our Great Qian Zhenguo Army will absolutely keep its word—we will never act rashly!"
"At the same time, we hope you will also keep your promise—before the 48-hour response period expires, do not gamble with the lives of the hostages..."
-------------------------------------
"Hahaha................"
"Tobias, it seems things are going even more smoothly than we expected!"
Watching the news conference on television, Morse Yarlin grinned smugly: "What did I tell you!"
"Our meticulously planned scheme has the potential to set a new world record—we will become the first 'pioneers' to make the Great Qian Zhenguo Army suffer a setback and force the Great Qian under Shen Moshen to make concessions!"
"You know—no one has ever done anything like this before!"
"And we are about to achieve a major breakthrough and create a new history!"
"The proud people of Qian will have no choice but to bow down and compromise with us..."
"Tobias, I think we can have a celebratory drink now!"
“It has been confirmed—Li Weijian was not lying.” Jerome Tobias was overjoyed as he looked at the current situation: “The 16th Rapid Reaction Division is withdrawing in an orderly manner.”
"Their heavy artillery units have also withdrawn from their positions."
"It seems that the capital city still doesn't dare to joke about the safety of so many hostages!"
"They are also afraid of losing public support because of this..."
“It’s not necessarily that Shen Moshen cares so much about the safety of these Tanni hostages,” Morse Yarlin smiled. “It’s just that these people are indeed citizens of the Great Qian in name only.”
"That hypocrite Shen Moshen, he'll compromise temporarily for the sake of his reputation!"
"However, this is a win-win situation for us."
"No matter what Shen Moshen decides in the end, we won't lose out!"
Morse Yarlin said smugly, "If Shen Moshen is ruthless enough to disregard public opinion and launch an indiscriminate long-range attack on Tanlt City, the natives of the other protectorates will surely feel extremely disheartened."
"If Shen Moshen is only pretending to care about the safety of the hostages, then after we set a precedent, those anti-Qian elements hiding all over the world will rush to imitate what we did in Tanlt City."
"At that time, the entire Great Qian Dynasty will truly be bustling with activity!"
"I can't wait to see how Shen Moshen will respond after a wave of large-scale hostage-taking incidents breaks out all over the world!"
"If the people of Qian Kingdom continue to make compromises and concessions, the world unification they have worked so hard to build will be broken again!"
"So—if we successfully force the Qian people to compromise and make concessions this time, it could very well directly shatter the Qian's unified empire..."
Thinking about this, Jerome Tobias became increasingly excited: "We've accomplished something that none of the entire Ciro could have done back then!"
"Yarlin, I believe our names will be remembered throughout history!"
"Especially you!"
Jerome Tobias laughed, “I think the name Morse Yarlin has now become Shen Moshen’s nightmare.”
"Before long, your name may become the nightmare of all the people of Qian Kingdom—a villain who destroyed the unified structure of Qian Kingdom!"
"Hahaha...................."
Morse Yarlin laughed: "Tobias, if I could become the nightmare of the people of Qian, I think I would be more than happy to play that role."
"The shameless and despicable people of Qian should have been punished long ago."
"Just you wait and see..."
Morse Yarlin's eyes were filled with fervor: "Our success in Tanlt City is just a small test."
"In the future, we will bring even more and bigger surprises to the people of Qian Kingdom!"
