Chapter 1228 Robbers Don’t Deserve Sympathy

Laura was completely stunned. She never expected that the authorities would dare to tell such a big lie.

She could confirm what Mason said was true without even making a phone call. How could such a powerful army be defeated as soon as the Gauls arrived?

"Sister Mei tore up the ceasefire agreement with her own hands. I think that gentleman must be very angry at the moment." Mason continued, "That group of shameless politicians put our homes in danger. If that gentleman retaliates, I think even if our coalition forces can stop them, our homes will be destroyed, and countless people will be homeless...

"Laura, I need your help. I need the help of your TV station."

Laura looked at Mason like a fool: "Sir, you are also a politician. Although you have only recently entered politics, I understand what you mean, but I'm sorry, we journalists have always been committed to fairness."

"Stop talking nonsense!" Mason said disdainfully. "We all know that you BBC people have been following us. Now I need you to tell your boss that it's time to make a new choice. Don't forget that your headquarters is still in Fog City."

Again!

Laura lowered her head helplessly and thought.

As a senior journalist, Laura knew very well what the so-called freedom of the press was here. It was just for outsiders to hear and should not be taken seriously.

The BBC has always been the mouthpiece of the authorities. The BBC will report whatever the authorities tell it to report. This has nothing to do with freedom and truth.

"Sir, what you mean is, is there a way to convince that gentleman again?" Laura asked tentatively.

This temptation was very insidious, and it was obviously trying to find out whether Mason had any relationship with Zeng Wangcai.

"I'm not sure at all!" Mason naturally didn't know how to calculate. He shook his head and said, "I used to be a businessman, and of course, I am still a businessman now. I have money, and I have endless money. If you look at my past, you will know that I am also a philanthropist. I don't want to watch the people have no way out. I will continue to contact that gentleman and find a way to achieve peace again. Are you still determined to continue reporting according to the President's wishes?"

"Of course, this is not something I can decide." Laura nodded affirmatively.

She was telling the truth. BBC was so big and she was just an employee. It was impossible for her to go against her boss's wishes.

Again, Mason knew this, so he asked this question deliberately.

He met with Laura today not to ask her to change her report, but to win over the BBC.

"Ms. Laura, remember to call me." Mason paid the bill and walked out of the cafe.

He could not hide his excitement, as this development gave him hope of promotion.

During the previous fight, Mayer's approval rating plummeted. If this news report comes out, there is no doubt that Mayer's approval rating will rise sharply.

In this case, if Zeng Wangcai's troops hold on and achieve victory, Mei's support rate will plummet again.

And by that time, the dust will basically have settled.

The entire country of Britain is in dire straits, and Mason has stepped forward again to turn the tide. With the support of the party, it will be difficult for him not to get promoted.

As it turned out, Mason's judgment was completely correct.

After the press conference, various media reported on it, especially after Laura's report was published, all cities were plunged into a sea of ​​carnival.

Moreover, some people have organized themselves to appeal to the authorities to take back the things that had been returned before.

So, a robber is a robber and does not deserve any sympathy at all.

At the same time, two brigades of the British Empire entered the Fog City and took over its defense. The rest of their forces began to operate according to the orders of Commander-in-Chief Brute, and Brute himself came to Hastings.

Here are the Gaul commander Ask, and the German commander Maury.

There are eleven villages, some near and some far away. Gaul and Germany are the first to arrive, and they are also the villages with similar strength to Britain in the whole of Europe.

Ask brought six brigades with a total of more than 30,000 troops, while Mori brought eight brigades with a total of more than 40,000 troops.

These are just their initial troops, and do not include the troops from other families.

Not counting the local British army, the total strength of the first batch of troops from the eleven villages will reach 150,000, and there is also the navy on the way.

In the temporary military camp in Hastings, an electronic map was displayed in front of the three commanders.

"This is Shawson!" Brutus pointed to the place where Zeng Wangcai was currently on the electronic map, and then pointed to the north. "We need to make a detour and land at Lacton. Another force will cross the Thames and attack from the direction of Grace. My main force will set out from the Fog City.

"This way we surround him on three sides. Unless he can go into the sea, he can't escape the encirclement."

The plan was great. Only Brute and Zeng Wangcai's troops had fought here, so the plan was made by him.

But both Murray and Askew disagreed.

Mori said: "They are a fully mechanized force with strong mobility. If my troops go there by sea, I'm afraid they won't make it in time."

"No, no, no, we're still in time!" Brute said quickly. "You should know that our fleet and Ask's fleet haven't returned yet. You're the only one with large-scale shipping capabilities, and you also have two destroyers. They're very proud and won't back down easily before a fight. Let's fight first, and you can use the destroyers to bombard their base camp. Shawdersen is a coastal city."

This answer made Ask's problem disappear.

The purpose of their coalition is to completely wipe out Zeng Wangcai's troops, capture some of them, and thus prove the ownership of Zeng Wangcai's troops.

But Brute had never thought about a phenomenon, a strange phenomenon, that is, Zeng Wangcai and his men had been here for quite some time. Not only had they fought small-scale battles, but they had also fought several large-scale battles, and several brigades had been involved, but they had never obtained even a tiny bit of evidence.

This is extremely abnormal, this is a war.

Someone raised this question, but Brute finally responded by saying that there was no chance to clean up the battlefield.

After the meeting, Brute personally led his troops to the Fog City.

Mori boarded the ship and transported the troops by sea, while Ask led his men directly across the river.

The straight line between two points is the shortest, and Ask's troops here are the first to arrive at the predetermined starting point of the attack - Grace.

Grace is not far from Shawdersen and can be reached by rocket launchers, so after setting up camp, Ask ordered a small force to go forward to guard and wait for Brut in the direction of Fog City.

Brut's forces would be five infantry brigades, plus their last tank brigade, starting from the foggy city and finally arriving at Strathford.

In this way, Grace, Steford and Shao Desen formed a triangle. If Zeng Wangcai's troops attacked Shao Desen and could not defeat him, they could only go north along the coast and finally meet the tank.

At that time, there were blockades in front and pursuers behind.
