An adjutant nearby reported quietly, "The Church of Eternal Night loves to use the power of the stars, and satellite detection..."
At this point, Mond already understood the situation. He frowned and asked, "Where has General Beshim gone? It's been five days. Why hasn't the general returned yet?"
"Not sure."
The adjutant felt a little ashamed. He was the type of person who knew nothing about anything: all the extraordinary people in the intelligence department had been taken away. In the current war situation dominated by extraordinary people, the 18th Division was simply deaf and blind.
If it weren't for the frequent telegrams sent by the government, they might not even know that their rear defense had been breached.
"According to normal logic, the 80th Division should have taken advantage of our information asymmetry and launched a surprise attack on our army immediately. After our army was destroyed, occupying Missouri would have been a piece of cake."
After listening to his adjutant's report, Mond sighed and pondered, "Why did they attack the rear first and ignore our army? Aren't they afraid of our counterattack?"
Yeah, isn't he afraid of me going wild... ahem, isn't he afraid of our extraordinary army?!
At this moment, the adjutant came to Mond again and whispered to him, "General, Jefferson City has sent intelligence, and it seems that they want us to surrender and submit to the South."
"Join the South?"
Mond was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but ask, "Why? It's just the city that was captured. We still have a fight to do."
"General Beshim has appeared in the battle formation of the 80th Division."
Hearing this, Mond was silent for a moment, then said to the other officers, "Call all officers and hold a meeting to discuss the issue of surrender."
However, the meeting cannot decide anything and is just a formality.
Most of the officers of the 18th Division were members of interest groups, and most of their gangs had already surrendered to the South in the "enemy-occupied areas". There were only a few sporadic voices of opposition at this meeting, and most people agreed to surrender.
Helplessly, Missouri fell into the hands of the South, and the 18th Division did not fire a single shot or cannon.
But it doesn't matter. I believe that under the leadership of Beshim, the 18th Division can make contributions to the South.
......
"Missouri's tactics were successful. Should we start our second step plan?"
In the magnificent Eternal Night Church in the south, Aped chuckled and spoke to Smith, his voice full of confidence: "I'm afraid Leon is already busy and exhausted now, right?"
"That's not necessarily true."
Smith seemed somewhat indifferent: "Maybe our Bishop has some tricks up his sleeve."
"Besides, our reasons are untenable."
Hearing this, whatever Aped originally wanted to say was completely blocked in his heart.
Yes, the reason they declared war was that Leon deliberately gave the Scepter of Eternal Night to Benjamin and betrayed the Church of Eternal Night.
However, their witness Zhang Zhaochu ran away. Although they knew that it was Lyon who did it, words were not enough to prove it.
They didn't know about the dirty things Lyon had done in the Maple Leaf Country. The most important reason why they dared to rebel was the attitude of the leaders of the small cities in the north.
Only those night watchmen with high ranks can become priests or deacons. We are all night watchmen of the same level. Why do you go to New York, San Francisco, and Boston, while we have to go to the countryside?
Lyon settled them in some small cities, which obviously caused resentment among many Night Watchmen.
Smith and Aped had previously recruited these night watchmen.
It was with their support that Smith and Aped dared to oppose Lyon and wage the war between the North and the South.
This may be the case that those who are in the right will have many supporters, while those who are in the wrong will have few.
"At least, we are now in an advantageous position."
Aped took a deep breath and slowly said, "Leon is now at a disadvantage."
"Next, we should engage in a head-on battle."
Smith nodded, his expression somewhat indifferent: "When the war begins, we will activate the second plan and cut off the enemy's logistics!"
Their people are all logistics personnel. Although not every one of them is as powerful as Beshim, their accumulated strength can influence the final outcome of the war.
