Chapter 538: rebel ten
The streets of Huxin Town were suddenly filled with hustle and bustle.
"Quick, quick! One two one, one two one, one two one!"
Amidst the loud chants, teams of militiamen trotted through the streets with neat steps.
At the entrances and exits between Huxin Town and the outside world, two in the east and three in the south, a large number of militiamen suddenly appeared. Under the command of the officers sent by the training office, they set up roadblocks and blocked the city from the outside world. traffic.
In the Huxin Town Police Station located in the new urban area of South Bank, Captain Billy McReynolds walked into the compound wearing a straight police uniform with a stern expression on his face.
All the police officers of the second detachment have lined up in the yard waiting for him.
Today, the police team was supposed to be performing night patrols, but he quietly notified his subordinates to return to the police station to gather at this time.
Looking at the familiar faces in front of him, they stood neatly, and looked at him with awe, Billel McReynolds couldn't help feeling deeply in his heart, how could he climb to this position? It's not easy.
He recalled the scene when he was transferred from the army to the police force because of his injuries. He thought that he was doing nothing more than a job like a servant, but after he really became a member of the police force, he faced the situation set by the lord Paul Greiman. There are a lot of rules and regulations, and I feel quite at a loss.
But other people are also at a loss when facing the new profession of the police, and fortunately, they have the strong support of their family behind them, and finally they have been promoted step by step in the police force and achieved the position of detachment leader.
Now is the time to make your own contribution to the family.
Billy McReynolds knows all too well that this is a gamble, and a big one at that. If he wins the bet, the family will gain huge benefits, and he will be further promoted, becoming a pivotal member of Arda's military and political system. But once he lost the bet, he couldn't imagine what it would be like.
Brace yourselves, Billy, the future of the McReynolds family is in your hands—he said repeatedly.
"Ahem!" Birel cleared his throat heavily.
"Brothers, you must be wondering why there are teams of militiamen running around on the street. I learned something not long ago, and it should be able to answer your doubts."
A very sad expression appeared on Biller's face.
"Not long ago, a few guards who hurried back to Lake Town brought a terrible news! Our respected lord—Lord Paul Greman—was attacked by a group of thugs while hunting, and now it is estimated... It’s already more ominous than good.”
what!
Sure enough, as Bilar had expected, except for those confidantes whom he arranged, everyone's eyes were wide open, and their faces were full of shock.
"At the same time, a secret report from the intelligence department revealed that a small group of conspirators in this city are taking this opportunity to steal control of Arda, yes, they must be cursed ten thousand times with that group The thugs are a group, cooperating with the rebellion everywhere."
A worried expression appeared on Birel's face again.
"Unfortunately, at this juncture, the garrison in Huxin Town went to the field for training, and we don't even know where they have marched. This means that we have lost the greatest reliance on maintaining order. If With no one else to stop them, the insurgents will carry out their plots unimpeded."
"So, still staying in Huxin Town, the training office of the Staff Headquarters, which directed the militia to conduct training, took the initiative to stand up and assume the responsibility of maintaining order and stopping the conspiracy. I just received an official notice that from midnight in the morning, Huxin Town has been It has officially entered the state of military management. The task assigned to our police force is to cooperate with the militia to maintain order. People from other detachments will also be assigned tasks after going to work at dawn."
"Is everyone clear?"
Several people immediately responded loudly in the team in front of them, "Listen clearly, Captain!"
Someone took the lead, and others responded one after another, "Listen clearly!"
Bilar looked at the few people he had arranged in the team, with approval in his eyes.
"That...Captain McReynolds..."
Some people raised their hands, as if they had something to say.
"Oh? Lucas, do you have any questions? Come on, we don't have much time now."
A trace of displeasure flashed across Birel's face. Damn guy, there's so much shit, wouldn't it be nice to follow orders honestly.
The person who raised his hand was a young guy named Lucas, who had just passed the exam in the first half of the year and entered the police force, a rookie.
"Is it inappropriate for us to follow the orders of the army directly? Shouldn't it be Ruth Hayden, the head of the Department of Public Safety, who gave us the orders?"
As soon as the young man's words came out, many people in the team showed puzzled expressions.
"Ahem!" Birel cleared his throat loudly, but he scolded Lucas in his heart. What a mess, what trouble are you making.
Now he can only dispel everyone's doubts through lies.
"Military management is a decision unanimously made by all the adults in the Government Council. From now on, the command of all armed forces will be temporarily handed over to the army until the rebellion plot is crushed and the new lord succeeds."
Bilar didn't show the slightest guilty expression. If you have the ability, you, a little grassroots policeman, go to Ruth Hayden, who is the supervisor, to ask clearly, hum!
Lucas, right? I remember you, wait for me.
…
Bulgan paced back and forth in his office anxiously, looking at the grandfather clock in the corner from time to time.
The militiamen have been sent out, and all key locations are under his control. The signal towers around Huxin Town should also be controlled by his accomplices outside at this time—if the people outside move smoothly.
All that is left now is to gather the big shots who stayed in Huxin Town together, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com to announce Paul Greiman's sad news to them, and arrange for the heir to be "appointed" by the lord before he died. .
Fortunately, that Earl Myron Garnard returned to Bairding. If he was in Lake Town, he would be in a lot of trouble in his position.
"Report!" "Come in!" Bulgan let him in before the visitor's voice fell.
"My lord." The visitor hurriedly opened the door and entered.
"How are things going?"
"My lords have been notified. Lord Ford, Lord Hansel, and Lord Cecil... will all gather at the Lord's Mansion for a meeting at two o'clock, except..."
"Except for what?" Bulgan's heart skipped a beat, and a bad premonition arose spontaneously.
"Chief Schroeder...he...wasn't home."
"what?"
Bulgan was stunned for a moment.
