MTL - Napoleon II Reborn-Chapter 504 Prelude to Power Seizure
Chapter 504 Prelude to Power Seizure
When the 1st Infantry Division of the French Iberian 2nd Army arrived in Sao Paulo, a farce was also going on in the city of Sao Paulo. When McCain and George led less than 10,000 marines and sailors back to St. Paul on the afternoon of October 10, Ewan was secretly carrying out his power-seizure activities.
When he learned that the U.S. Marine Corps was killed by the French bombing thousands of people at a time, You En first had a look of horror and regret, but then a hint of joy. Because he knew that his chance had come. At that time, he sent a telegram to Cavester, who was far away in Belem, and reported to Cavester in detail what happened in Sao Paulo, and told Cavester his own thoughts. The idea of wanting to take Sao Paulo into his own hands.
Originally, Cavenster was unable to ask about St. Paul's affairs, because although there is an infantry division of the army here, it has always been managed by the navy. What's more, now that even he himself is trapped in the Belem area, it is even more difficult to intervene in Sao Paulo's affairs. However, the importance of Sao Paulo throughout South America is obvious. With such an opportunity to hold St. Paul in his hands, Cavenster certainly would not give up, and even if the plan failed, the loss would only be that insignificant infantry division, so Cavenster did not hesitate Chosen to support Yoon's plan. And also came up with a more ruthless idea, that is, to get rid of McCain and George when possible. Only then, after the arrival of reinforcements, can they truly grasp Sao Paulo. However, to get rid of McCain and George, of course, they can't do it themselves, otherwise, once the matter is revealed, they will all be in great trouble. However, although the French army's attack on Sao Paulo is a very serious test for Sao Paulo, it is also an opportunity. Youn can use the hands of the French army to get rid of McCain and George. On the battlefield, this method is too much. Of course, to ensure the success of the plan, the first step is to seize control of Sao Paulo.
"Come here, go and ask General McCain and General George to come over, and tell them that I will discuss with them about the deployment of defense." After receiving the support of Cavenster, You En can be said to be full of confidence.
"It's the general." Eun's adjutant, Major Ketemara, took the order. Ketemara is not only Youn's adjutant, but also the person Youn trusts the most. He is also very clear about You En's thoughts. Therefore, he was also very excited after learning that Cavenster fully supported Eun, because when Eun controlled the entire Sao Paulo, his status as Eun's confidant would definitely rise a lot accordingly.
In St. Paul City, there are mainly two military camps, one in the west of St. Paul City and one in the east. Ewan's infantry division was stationed to the west, while George's marines and McCain's sailors were stationed to the east. Therefore, the barracks on the east side are not only twice as big as those on the west side, but also have to be built more luxuriously and equipped with various facilities. Even for the 20,000 women left this time, only 5,000 were allocated to the western barracks, and the rest were all allocated to the eastern barracks. This further fueled the Army's resentment toward the Marines and sailors. The two sides have almost reached the point where fire and water are incompatible. This time the U.S. Marine Corps was killed by the French army at one time, thousands of people. I am afraid that the happiest is not the French, but these U.S. Army officers and soldiers who are also Americans.
With a few guards, Ketemara came to the eastern barracks. When he saw the very luxuriously decorated gate of the barracks, Ketemara was very upset, but when he thought that their army would soon become the control of St. Paul Or, then it is very likely that this place will belong to them in the future. Thinking of this, Ketamala's mood improved, and even looking at those luxurious buildings that were very annoying before is now so pleasing to the eye.
After being briefed by the guards, Ketemara was taken to the magnificent headquarters of McCain and George. Looking at this luxurious headquarters, Ketemara sneered in his heart: wait, or else How long, this place belongs to us.
"General McCain, General George!" Ketemara saluted the two first. After all, he was just a little major, and the two were several grades older than him.
McCain and George nodded. Such a small major officer was simply not taken seriously by them. "Ketmara, what's the matter with you coming to us? Or what's the matter with General Ewan?" McCain asked.
"General, it's like this. Our general asked the two generals to visit our division headquarters to discuss the next defense of St. Paul City." Ketemara said.
"What? Let us go over? Eun, he is right? It is to discuss the defensive deployment, but it is not us going over, but let him come over." As soon as Ketemara finished speaking, George only looked at Ketemara cursed.
"I'm sorry, General, this is none of my business, it's what our division commander meant." Ketemara said with her head down. In fact, in his heart, he had already greeted all the women in the George family countless times.
"Eun, did he really say that?" McCain also stared straight at Ketemara and asked. His face was also a little blue.
Ketemara was stared at by Eun, but he still mustered up the courage to reply: "Yes, General. This is what our division commander said. General, if there is nothing else, I will go back first and report back." .”
McCain took a deep look at Ketemara, and then said: "It's nothing, you go back and tell General Ewan, we will go there later."
"Okay, I'll tell General Ewan." Ketemara said, and then quickly fled from McCain's headquarters. After he got out, he realized that just a short while ago, his back had been injured. All wet.
"General, why did you agree to go? It's obvious that Yuen has become restless. He saw that our strength was damaged, so he took the opportunity to attack." George asked.
"Of course I know. But do we have other options? If it weren't for our current strength, I would have sent troops to teach him a lesson. Now that our strength is greatly weakened, if we want to defend Sao Paulo, we must rely on You En's strength , so now he is qualified to put on airs in front of us. After this hurdle is over and the reinforcements arrive, I want him to look good." McCain said angrily. No one has ever dared to talk to him like that, and from now on, he really hated You En in his heart. It is foreseeable that if Sao Paulo can withstand the attack of the French army this time, then Eun will definitely face strong revenge from McCain in the future. Of course, the premise is that McCain can wait until that day.
"But general, before we suppressed You En everywhere, I'm afraid going to him this time will be bad for us." George said with some worry.
"Don't worry. Anyway, we are also a vice admiral and a rear admiral, and he is just a small commodore. With his courage, he would not dare to do anything to us." McCain smiled Said, "If you're really worried, then I'll go, and you stay and command the troops. If Youn really dares to do something not weird, we'll have time to react."
"I don't think it's necessary. I should be worrying too much. I'd better go with you." George said. He couldn't help but wonder if he was being too careful.
McCain nodded and said nothing more. But, before long, he will greatly regret his decision now. Indeed, with Youn's character, he really didn't dare to do anything with him, but what he never imagined was that behind Youn stood a Cavester, a former South American emperor.
About an hour later, when everything was fully prepared, McCain and George left the eastern barracks and headed for the western barracks with about a platoon of guards. It has to be said that this is probably the first time they have gone to the west barracks since they were stationed in St. Paul. Before anything happened, Eun took the initiative to go to the east barracks.
About half an hour later, they arrived at the western barracks, but the western barracks gave them a very unbearable feeling~www.novelbuddy.com~ because compared with the eastern barracks, the western barracks were completely at two extremes. If the eastern military camp is a high-end apartment, then the western military camp can only be regarded as a slum.
At the gate of the barracks, McCain and George were stopped. This made them both very angry. You must know that the two of them are the highest-ranking people in St. Paul now, so where else can the two of them not go?
The two sides started arguing, and the army soldiers who had already received the order refused to give up an inch. They usually see these marines and sailors as extremely displeasing to the eye. Now that they have received the order from above, they are even more angry Unscrupulous. When the two sides were arguing, they even compared McCain and others with guns, which made McCain tremble with anger. However, the guards he led were less than a platoon, while the opponent had a company or even more.
After stopping McCain and others, someone from the army immediately went to report to You En. In the final analysis, these people are just soldiers, and if there is anything to do, it is the division commander You En who makes the decision.
When the people below came to report, it was the time when You En got impatient. Because he had been waiting for almost an hour, the attitude of McCain and Ewan made him feel completely ignored, which made him very angry. As soon as they heard that McCain and the others had come, they hurriedly asked Ketemara to invite McCain and the others.
