Translator: 549690339
Just after Andaria ordered the execution of the two military police who stubbornly resisted the warehouse, the other hesitant warehouses sent news of surrender one after another.
After learning from the previous experience, the officers of the remaining warehouses immediately stopped hesitating. Even if they hesitated, the soldiers under them could not make them hesitate anymore, after all, everyone had been selling arms for a long time. They were used to making easy money. Who would want to die now!
Moreover, whether they were soldiers or officers, they knew that even if the uprising army did not kill them, Colonel Kono would not forgive them. Instead of waiting for Kono to come back and deal with them.., they might as well surrender now. It would be a death sentence anyway. If the uprising Army got lucky and won, they could still find a good way out. Even if the uprising army failed, they could take advantage of this period of time.., they could enjoy themselves.
Therefore, before the bodies of the military police were cold after Andrea executed them, the military police in the other warehouses took their men and surrendered.
“Move everything that can be moved! You guys, get me some trucks!”Andrea said to the military officers who had just come over.
“Yes! Yes!”The military officers did not dare to say anything else at this time. They took their men back and quickly found a large number of trucks.
On this side, Andaria sent people to move the things in the warehouse. Whether it was food, supplies, or the weapons and equipment of the military and police, they were all collected by him. In the end, Andaria poured a few barrels of gasoline on them, then, a huge fire burned these warehouses down!
Following that, Andaria led his 20,000 men to escort these supplies back. He did not return to the slums directly. Instead, he followed Lina’s instructions and moved these supplies out of the city, then, he hid them in a few farms on the outskirts. His rebel soldiers were also divided into several groups and stationed in these farms.
Lina did not let Andaria return to the slums directly with the supplies. The main reason was that Colonel Kono was currently leading the main force of the military police to besiege the slums. Once Andaria returned, he would definitely meet Colonel Kono’s men.
Although Andrea had more than 20,000 people, their equipment could not be compared to the military police. With just some light weapons, they were not a match for the main force of the military police. If they were to be snatched back by others.., then the previous efforts of Andrea and the others would be in vain. Moreover, after losing these supplies, Lina and the other rebels would also lose the capital to continue fighting.
To an army that had to fight for a long time, weapons were secondary. Adequate food and logistics were the most important. The magistrate was a good example, because of the lack of food.., such a strong clone army was dragged into a fatigued army by him. In the end, they were all wiped out by Colonel Kono’s army and police.
If those clone warriors had eaten their fill and rested well, they might have really taken down the D 5 industrial area. Although the chances of the magistrate winning were still not high.., at the very least, he would not have fallen so quickly.
The failure of the sheriff had been decided from the very beginning. His rebellion had no foundation. The rich were only archons. The poor did not feel anything for him. In such a situation.., when the sheriff started a rebellion, he only had the 10,000 clones in his hands. He had no foundation at all. It was like a castle in the air. It could not last long.
This time, when Lina started the uprising, under Jiang Fei’s guidance, she had absorbed the experience of the security officer’s failed rebellion. She had built her own foundation among the poor people in the slums, she had also developed armed forces and reserve forces.
Although these armed poor people lacked military literacy and in terms of combat power, they might not be as powerful as the 10,000 clones of the security officer. However, since Lina’s 100,000 people were gone, she could continue to recruit from the poor people in the slums, she could fill in the gaps, but the clones under the security officer would be one less if one of them died.
Moreover, Lina had been deeply taught by Jiang Fei’s guerrilla warfare. Therefore, she did not choose to go head-to-head with Colonel Kono’s military police. The uprising army relied on the buildings in the slums to level up their defense. Although they had suffered some casualties.., however, they had also effectively organized the attack of the military police.
Just when the military police had advanced about one-third of the way, the variable that Lina had mentioned appeared!
“Colonel, something bad has happened! Something has happened to the logistics warehouse!”A military police officer ran to Kono in a panic.
“What happened?”Colonel Kono frowned.
“All the material warehouses are on fire!”The military police officer said.
“What! ?”Kono panicked, more than 80% of his supplies were stored in these warehouses. If these supplies were destroyed, with only 20% of the food and supplies left, if they wanted to survive until the next harvest.., then they would have to eat grass roots and gnaw on tree bark!
“Stop the Attack! Hurry up and go back and put out the fire!”Kono immediately ordered. Although the fire was burning, they had to save as many as they could. If they saved more food, they would have more food to eat!
The military police who were attacking at the front also panicked when they heard that the backyard was on fire. Everything else could be slowed down, but they could not do it without food!
Therefore, the military police who were charging forward suddenly stopped attacking. They turned around and quickly retreated from the slums.
“Want to leave? How can it be that easy? Chase after them and beat them up!”Lina immediately gave the order.
“Yes!”Doros nodded, and then led his rebel soldiers to kill their way out.
At this time, the military police were in a hurry to go back and save the food, so they didn’t have the mood to continue fighting. They fought and retreated, and sometimes they even retreated recklessly. The rebel soldiers shot at them randomly, leaving behind hundreds of corpses.
When Colonel Kono brought his men back to the warehouse area, the Flames there had already soared to the sky.
“Put out the fire! Quickly put out the fire!”The military police under Colonel Kono’s organization started to put out the fire, but the fire was too big. It was impossible to put it out.
In the end, after two days and two nights of hard work, the fire was finally put out. The military police rescued a small amount of burned or soaked supplies, but there was almost no food.
“Damn it! What happened? Where’s the food? Is It all destroyed?”Colonel Kono frowned. If the food was destroyed, then his life would not be easy.
“Colonel, I heard that before the fire started, a convoy left here. The food and most of the supplies should have been moved!”An officer reported.
“Oh! ? Who Did It!”Colonel Kono’s eyebrows were raised. Since the supplies and food were taken away by these people, then they must have set the fire!
