"But the establishment of the Federation was a joint decision we made before, and now we have to" Another black warlord seemed to feel guilty.
"We established the federation to make us better. But now the Orumi Federation has been completely emptied by the secret society. The cabinet is ineffective and the federal president is their puppet. Every decision of the federation is made by the secret society. Behind the scenes. If this phenomenon only stayed with the federal government, then I would have no problem, but now they have reached out to our turf.
On the surface, it is asking us to give up private armed forces in order to promote the federal peace process. But it is actually weakening our tribal armed forces and strengthening federal control. If we don't raise our voices at this time, we will have nothing in the end. General Logan said loudly.
"General, there is a clear gap between our current strength and the federal army. The secret society has now infiltrated their armed forces into the Orumi Federation. The military is all their people, and they are well-equipped and well-funded. We all know that the secret society has penetrated into the Orumi Federation. What kind of terrifying power the society has. If we really want to go to war with them, we have almost no chance. It is precisely because of this that they are so unscrupulous." A short, fat black warlord stood up and said.
"That's why we have to use the power of neighboring countries. This is our only chance. Otherwise, we can only accept the federal decision and disband our armies. We will hand over the territory we have managed for decades." General Logan Coldly.
"But when we joined the Federation, we had an agreement. The Federation must guarantee the interests of our tribes and not infringe upon them." Another warlord said dissatisfied.
"Yes, that's what they said at the beginning. Because we still had bargaining capital at that time, and once our tribal armed forces are disbanded and weapons are confiscated, what do you think we have to oppose? The reason is simple." General Logan took out a pistol and weighed it, "When some of us have guns in our hands, the federal government will undoubtedly treat us more cautiously. But when we have nothing, the federal government and those behind him will The secret society will start to act unscrupulously because we have no power to resist."
His words made some of the warlords sitting around nod with deep understanding. They are all small warlords in Africa. They may not know anything else, but there are three things they must know. That's people, guns, and territory. Only when someone has a gun and a territory can they have everything. The federal government can negotiate anything they want, but these three things are the foundation of their existence and must not be touched.
"I agree with General Logan."
"I agree too." The warlords began to express their opinions one after another. In fact, most of the people who can meet General Logan here are northern warlords who have a good relationship with him, so they naturally agree with him. Even some warlords who had nothing to do with Logan felt that the Federation's plan to disarm them was a huge threat to them. Since General Logan was willing to stand up for everyone, they naturally agreed with the majority.
In the middle of their meeting, when there was a lot of discussion, a black officer wearing camouflage uniforms walked in and whispered a few words in General Logan's ear.
"What? They are already here? Are you sure?" General Logan whispered.
"Yes, we checked. They have the ID of the AU Military Observer Mission. There are several vehicles, just like we agreed." The black officer whispered.
"Very good, you can end the meeting for me. I'll go see them in person." General Logan nodded.
The black officer nodded and said, "I have asked your escort captain to prepare. They will go with you, just in case."
General Logan frowned slightly and said, "Don't make it too overwhelming. If you see them with a large number of bodyguards, it will only make others think that we have no confidence. If even they think that we are not worthy of cooperation, , then we are really at a loss. Anyway, the whole town is under our control, so there shouldn¡¯t be much of a problem. I only need a few bodyguards by my side, and everyone else will stay on guard outside."
"But General." The black officer said with some concern.
"That's it, don't let the people in the observation team see our joke. Even in my own territory, I can only see people surrounded by bodyguards." Logan shook his head.
"Yes, General." The black officer nodded.
A large queue of people had already formed outside the town. General Logan also made full preparations for this meeting. He sent out his best troops and lined up to welcome the arrival of the military observation group. General Logan knew very well that if he wanted to get the support of other countries, others had to see if he had the strength.
So this is an opportunity to show off their military appearance. The black soldiers are all wearing brand new camouflage uniforms and black military boots. The weapons of the soldiers have also been replaced by brand-new AK47 rifles, hung on the chest, and the guns are roasted blue and shiny. In addition to these troops, he also organized local residents to participate in the welcome. A row of African children stood on both sides holding balloons and flowers. There were other black people lined the streets to welcome him.
The vehicle of the military observation group has already entered the town, and it is several armored vehicles marked with the word AU that are clearing the way. The people who got off the car were also accompanied by General Logan's men.
General Logan adjusted his military uniform, put on his shiny leather boots, and strode forward to greet him with a smile on his face. The people from the military observation group also walked towards him. When the two groups met more than 20 meters away, the situation suddenly changed. The members of the military observation group who had been smiling just a moment ago suddenly showed their weapons.
General Logan froze suddenly, which caught him off guard, but the bodyguards behind him reacted very quickly and pulled him behind him.
But almost at the same time, a gunshot was heard in the distance. Several members of the observation group who were at the forefront were shot dead on the spot, and a gun battle suddenly broke out. These fake members of the military observation group seemed not to have expected such a sudden change. They were almost successful, but a sniper from somewhere suddenly opened fire, killing their two assassins on the spot.
When they tried to take action again, General Logan's guards had already reacted. While protecting the general and retreating, they fired at them. The troops on both sides lined up to welcome them were also General Logan's troops, and they quickly raised their guns to fight. The children and people who were welcomed at the scene were even more confused and fled in all directions. The scene was completely out of control.
