Lord of War

Chapter 599 Take over Phoenix

"It's ridiculous!"

A fist fell on the table, and the poor table was hit by the fist and jumped up. The smooth surface of the table reflects the appearance of a short-haired officer. He said angrily, "General, you want to receive us in Phoenix with just one email. Although Augustus is one of the rich families of the Dark Parliament, isn't this act too arrogant?

In the office, an old man turned his back to a middle-aged officer. His hair is full of silver hair, and his sharp eyes in the past have become a little tired, and even his usual upright posture is more cring. General Morgan, the founder of Phoenix, sighed and said, "The Augustus family was one of the builders of the dark parliament that day, and their family's force is not much worse than the bloody knights on the surface of the parliament. Among the rich families of the parliament, Augustus has always been regarded as the first in force, and it is naturally the support of Speaker Oglock behind his back to cultivate the family into the strength under the surface of the parliament. Now they also represent the meaning of the parliament, so they do have the qualifications to be arrogant.

The middle-aged officer stood up. He was George, who had some friendship with Zero that day: "But General, this city is the painstaking efforts of you and everyone for many years. Could it be that we don't do anything and just give it to the Augustus family?

"What else do you think I can do, George?" General Morgan shook his head and smiled bitterly, "This time, the dark parliament and the Spirit Hall suddenly declared war, although Augustoq claimed that the Spirit Hall attacked their city first. But people with clear eyes can see that this is just a statement from the great speaker. After all, the dark parliament has been dormant long enough, and Oglock can't stand loneliness. They want to expand. Look, the cities north of the coastline are now all included in the territory of his parliament. Do you think they will be accommodate us only across a Death Hill?

"No, Oglock's ambition is by no means limited to the northern city. He wants to annex the entire coastline, then launch a western invasion, erase the Yingling Hall from the map, and turn the whole continent into his back garden of Oglock. There is no doubt that this is a madman. And the point is that he has that strength. General Morgan shook his head and said, "Oglock is playing a big game of chess, and there will only be him and the Hall of Spirits on the chessboard. As for the rest, the dark council is being cleared, isn't it?"

"I can understand your mood, George. But I can't help thinking about it for more people, although Phoenix has an army and weapons. Not to mention the parliament, we can't even beat the Augustus family. If you refuse, I believe you know better than me what the consequences will be. Do you want to see Phoenix become ruins before the war between Parliament and the Yingling Hall really started? Finally, the general took a deep look at the officer.

George finally lowered his head and his eyes were full of humiliation: "I know, general."

At this time, the phone rang in the office. George answered the general, and a moment later, he looked up and said, "The people of Augustus will arrive in half an hour."

"Well, let's meet the new owner of the city." General Morgan said with great emotion, with a silent expression.

A vast convoy is driving along the road in the direction of Phoenix, passing through the ruins of Morin City. The mutan beasts hiding in the ruins hid, and even the living corpses that usually wandered in the shadows or corners of the ruins did not dare to move. This is because the convoy exudes a frightening atmosphere that makes these mutatic creatures, which is a strong murderous atmosphere emitted only when a large number of regular soldiers gather together. What's more, there are many capable people in this team, and several of them make these mutaic creatures faint directly as soon as they come into contact.

It can be seen that the convoy is mostly transport vehicles, which are full of heavily armed soldiers. These soldiers uniformly wear black tactical suits, which have soft armor to protect their shoulders, chest and knees. On the left breastplate, there is a folded angel's coat of arms, which is the mark of the "fallen angel" of the Augustus family.

In addition to transport vehicles, there are some armored fighting vehicles and artillery tanks in the front and rear of the fleet, with a total of 50 vehicles. However, in Phoenix, which is located in the direction of the convoy, they can't bring out ten frames. What's more, in addition to these chariots, there are several long trailers pulling strips of bright red container containers, which are neatly arranged with power armor. They are the real battlefield firepower of the Augustus family. As for armored vehicles and tanks, they have become furnishings.

There are several silver medical vehicles behind the truck. Each of these vehicles is an operating room with tools that can perform the most complex operations. Of course, they are not for soldiers, and only those important people are eligible to use these medical vehicles. As for medical vehicles, there is also a special team of vehicles, which have different functions but can basically be regarded as mobile laboratories. That's the Augustus family' own research team, which mainly studies aliens. Due to this war, the Augustus family will advance westward with Phoenix as their stronghold, during which they will pass through a lot of wilderness and ruins, and even cross a desert. This is undoubtedly the best opportunity for researchers to collect specimens, so they also came with the group.

The vast fleet extends hundreds of meters, but in front of the fleet is a black old-fashioned car. It's just that the car has been modified so that its performance is not worse than that of off-road locomotives. This car was supposed to be driving on a highway in a big city, but now it is running in the wilderness. How strange it looks. But as long as you know that the two young masters of Augustus sitting in the car now can probably understand why it appears here.

In the car, Rein looked at the man in front of him who was a few years older than him. He has a very similar face to Rein, but his eyebrows are condensed and his expression is solemn, but he is much more mature than Rein, with the shadow of Rein's father Leo.

Lein remembers that when he was young, he had long blonde hair. But when he joined the family's fallen angel and became a lower-ranking soldier at the age of 15, he cut his long hair into what it is today, and this hairstyle has been maintained for more than 10 years now. For ten years, every time I saw him, the length of his hair had almost never changed, which was so accurate that it was horrible.

He wears a carefully tailored slim suit, which is cut and made all by hand. The straight lines and just the right decoration are completely a portrayal of the aristocracy on him. He holds an old-fashioned book "Pride and Prejudice" in his hand. The book is already very old, and a small corner is missing on the cover. Originally, in this era, what is simpler to read books than holding a tablet brain? But he still adheres to the habit of reading paper books, and this habit itself explains his identity from another side. After all, those who are tired of living don't have much leisure to read a book like him.

If he didn't inadvertently exude the unique toughness of soldiers in a certain action, then he would look more like a nobleman or a businessman. And he is indeed the follower of Augustus. It took ten years to step by step from a lower soldier to the current position, becoming the youngest general in history since the establishment of the fallen angel - Hart. Augustus!

At the same time, he is also Rein's eldest brother.

"Although we haven't seen each other for several years, I will be embarrassed if you keep staring at me like this, dear brother." Close the book, Hart looked at his brother and smiled.

"I'm just looking to see when you become a father completely." Rein laughed and said, "Brother, don't you think you have imitated your father too much these years? You drink the same coffee, although you don't like sugar. Wear the same style of clothing, even reading the same book. Even now, you are almost no different from your father when he was young. No wonder people outside call you a young golden lion.

Hart's smile remained unchanged and said, "What's wrong with this?" My father will always be my goal and idol in my heart. My wish since I was a child is to become a man like him.

"Of course it's good." Rein nodded and said, "In this way, with you supporting the whole family, I can be lazy."

"You are still the same as before." Hart shook his head helplessly and said, "But surprisingly, the blood horse will let you come back to your family to help. Otherwise, our two brothers can't sit together now.

"Do you think the blood ride is so generous? It's just that our family is now acting as the vanguard of the parliament, and they are just a favor. Rein said disapprovingly.

"Anyway, our two brothers can fight side by side this time. Very good, really good."

"No, brother, I'm here for a vacation. It's better to make the task you arranged for me easier."

"You think it's beautiful..."

After making a few jokes, Rein frowned and said, "Last time in Parliament, I don't know why my always low-key father took the job of striker. This is too far from his usual style, not to mention that the battle on the front line is not easy at all. I don't know how many people will never return home after this war.

Hart smiled faintly and said, "Lein, your power is beyond doubt. But as your father said, you can become a brave general, but you are not a qualified politician. My father is not low-key, but he has never had a chance. It was imperative for the parliament to fight against the Yingling Hall, but my father just seized the opportunity to show for a while. Of course, the life of the striker will not be easy, but as a result, he has also received a lot of resources support from the parliament. And more importantly, this is an opportunity to expand the strength of the family. How can my father easily let it go? He has always been very accurate.

"Take Phoenix, where we will arrive, for example, although we regard Phoenix as a stronghold on the front line in the name of Parliament. But after this war, who do you think Phoenix will write down? It won't be the Dark Parliament, it won't be Oglock, it's just our Augustus. Hart looked out of the window and faintly saw the outline of the distant city: "War brings destruction, and at the same time, war also brings opportunities. Unlimited opportunities, my dear brother!"
