Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 351

351. Chapter 350, Shoot him and bring his head back

After hearing Hood’s subversive speech at the banquet, and then showing his attitude and keeping him for a long talk all night, wanting the mayor of Yancheng to have more power and supervise the war preparations of the entire city, Gu Hang thought that the mayor might be in danger.

Those dignitaries would not let him go.

So, Gu Hang sent his guards to follow Hood as he left.

It was originally just a precautionary measure, but it really came in handy.

Obviously, if the Governor’s Guards from the 10th Brigade had not arrived in time, the ambushers would have almost succeeded.

They sent snipers to ambush Hood on his way home, and there was a second measure. Once the sniper failed to kill, a large group of gang members recruited as black gloves would rush out to ensure Hood’s death.

But unfortunately, these methods failed in front of the Governor’s Guards.

Although the Governor’s Guards only had eight people, they still used long-range fire suppression to force the sniper to withdraw. In order to prevent being lured away, they did not adopt a pursuit strategy, but just stayed where they were and killed the local gangs. After leaving dozens of bodies in a few minutes, the gang ran away crying.

The sniper was a very powerful master. He almost killed Hood with a shot from a long distance. This was indeed an accident. However, according to the latest situation, Hood only broke a leg, and the injury was not fatal overall.

This made Gu Hang feel much more relieved.

But then, there was a raging rage.

Okay, I’ll just be on the safe side, and you really dare to do it, right?

Soon, officials from the Mingyancheng Legal Affairs and Security Department appeared in the Governor’s Mansion.

Gu Hang, who was checking the subspace situation at close range, had no time to deal with them personally. He came to Korojia, not alone. In addition to the hundreds of people in the Governor’s Guard, there is also a team of his confidential secretaries, about a hundred people.

These secretaries conveyed the Governor’s anger. One of the psychics directly intervened in the investigation and found the gang leader on the same day.

There was also a series of things that happened, such as the umbrella in the security bureau, the gang leader refused to explain the mastermind behind it, and a scapegoat was thrown out to appease the Governor’s anger.

But the Governor expressed a tough attitude towards these things.

I don’t have time to mess around with you, playing games like decryption and finding evidence.

I just need a list.

It just so happened that the first batch of people that Gu Hang shook from the alliance had arrived.

Gu Hang was relieved to leave this matter to Lambert Hodgson.

Gu Hang’s instructions were very simple, contact a few more credible local officials, and together with the officials of the security department, get this list together.

If the officials of the security department and the legal department do not cooperate, let them also be on the list. Cut the Gordian

knot.

As for the injustice?

If all the officials on Koroja were executed, there might be some innocent ones, but if every other one was executed, there would definitely be a lot of fish that slipped through the net.

…

“Boss, someone has broken into the house.”

“I see.” Manus nodded, still a little scared.

He was the director of the Logistics and Equipment Management Department of the planetary government.

He arranged and ordered the assassination of Ezra Hood.

He admitted that this behavior was a bit reckless, but when he was named in the meeting in front of countless people and in front of the new governor and was ready to flee Mingyan City, he was already furious.

If someone accused you of something you didn’t do, you wouldn’t be very angry; but if you really did it and it was publicly pointed out, that would be the most annoying.

There are many insects in the Koroja government, but it’s rare to find one as insect as him.

Despicable people often laugh at more despicable people more fiercely than ordinary people.

Under the crisis of destruction, most people actually have a concept: you can’t run, you must fight hard.

Otherwise, two nests have already been destroyed. If Mingyan City is destroyed, the activated city formed by the evil plague will no longer be able to resist. In the end, when the entire planet is destroyed, where can we hide?

After all, at that point, only a few people can escape from this planet.

As a result, there is a traitor among us!

Now, Manus is in this embarrassing situation.

How can he not hate Hood who caused this incident?

So he took action.

At the same time, he also thought that this would incur the wrath of the new governor.

But this governor has just arrived in this world and has a big crisis to face. He does not have a strong backing like Fachers. It is said that the two worlds originally controlled by the new governor have a total population of only 500 million, which is equivalent to the smallest nest city on Korojia.

The new governor has too many things to do, so how can he pay attention to himself?

Following the gang up, the first person he found was the scapegoat he threw out.

At this point, it can be considered an explanation.

What he wants is not just to get away with it.

He didn’t believe that Governor Gu could solve the problem in the first place. He originally planned to buy more time to find ways to leave Korojia after escaping.

It’s nothing more than running away earlier.

It’s a pity that the large amount of weapons and equipment that he originally wanted to take away, whether it was the new equipment produced by the Mingyancheng Arsenal or the military aid sent by the empire, were all managed by him.

He originally wanted to take out several train cars, but now the plan has been disrupted. He can’t take so much, so he can only take less.

What a pity.

The goods that can be taken have been arranged and will be sent out with the train later.

And he himself, with a team of bodyguards, has already left the city from the checkpoint at the Nest Pass where he had greeted.

However, at this moment, a whistling sound came from behind him.

He turned his head and saw several vehicles with the logo of the Planetary Law Department chasing him at high speed.

He immediately felt something was wrong.

“Drive faster! Drive faster!”

“Destroy the cars behind us!”

Following his orders, his bodyguards began to attack fiercely from behind.

He was an official of the Equipment Management Department, so he certainly had the ability to get a group of loyal bodyguards from the military. Even the five vehicles he took on his escape were all converted from military armored vehicles.

Some vehicles even had automatic turrets that rose to the top of the vehicle and turned to aim behind them.

However, the turrets still failed to fire successfully.

Suddenly, there was a violent explosion from the left rear wheel of the vehicle, and the entire vehicle was overturned on the side of the road.

At this time, the doors of these vehicles with the Ministry of Justice logo opened wide, and several people jumped out of the speeding cars.

Ordinary people would inevitably be seriously injured if they jumped out of the car like this, but these people wearing exoskeletons were different. They just paused for a moment, but continued to run forward by inertia, and took out various weapons in their hands and shot at the armored vehicles.

The leader among them was even wearing a power armor.

She was relatively small, like a lady, and it was obvious that she was not a Space Marine; she was dressed in silver and black, and she was definitely not the green and white Sister Lily of the Holy Mercy.

She did not pull out the bolter from the gun bag on the side of her thigh, but instead drew out a sword and pointed it at another armored vehicle in front of her. Her eyes flashed with a deep blue light, and in an instant, a strange power emerged from the tip of the sword. The next moment, a wheel of the armored vehicle suddenly exploded and fell to the ground.

During this process, she never stopped running. Short-distance bursts are even faster than vehicles.

Following the same method, she overturned all the target vehicles.

The exoskeleton warriors beside her will do the aftermath work later.

The car just overturned, and it didn’t explode. There are still many survivors inside. These guys were all pulled out, and those who dared to resist were shot.

In fact, few people are so stupid.

It’s over, why bother.

And the most important target was brought to the lady in silver-black power armor.

She took off the helmet of the power armor, revealing her beautiful face.

This is the Alliance Demon Hunter – Miria De Jong.

The Alliance has produced quite a few sets of feedback power armor over the years. These power armors are used in many places. Some officers in the army are assigned to them, and some are assigned to the Alliance Police Department, the Security Department, the Independent Commission Against Corruption, and some are also assigned to demon hunters.

De Jong put on a set.

She is now the captain of the demon hunters. This time, she came to this planet with Chief Justice Lambert. Hunting down the traitor Manus is her first task.

In addition to the power armor on her body, her most important weapon is the awakened psychic power.

When she was just trained as a demon hunter, she mastered the preliminary means of using psychic power; later, she entered the Storm Mage Academy for further studies for half a year and formally mastered psychic power.

The means to overturn those armored vehicles just now were her psychic power.

After carefully observing the face of the man kneeling on the ground, she said softly: “It is confirmed that it is the imperial traitor Manus. Shoot him and cut off his head and take it back. Chief Justice Lambert has no time to hold a public trial. He wants to directly put enough heads in the office and talk to the rest of the people. The effect should be quite good.”

Manus already felt that it was not good, and he was trembling with fear after hearing this.

He quickly said: “Madam! Madam! Please listen to me! I am still useful. I know a lot of things…”

“No, your life is more useful.”

“No, no, no! The defenders of Mingyan City are going to rebel! Their commander has a good relationship with me, I can…”

“Tsk, do you need to say it? Someone has already gone there.” When she said this, Milia’s face was still a little ugly, as if she was unhappy because she could not participate in the big operation over there.

While speaking, another demon hunter had walked behind Manus and pointed the muzzle of his gun at his back.

“Don’t, don’t…”

“Bang!”

“Ugh…”

With a gunshot, Manus, who was shot through the back, fell forward to the ground, and blood flowed out of his broken chest, staining his face red, which was still terrified and incredulous.

…

Mingyan City, middle-level area, Hive Guard Command Post.

Lieutenant General Thadius entered Admiral Johnson’s office under the protection of a team of governor’s guards.

He was a man with gray hair, but his face was still tough. He sat behind the desk, with a sense of majesty without anger.

He raised his head and saw Thadius, who had the rank of lieutenant general but a completely different uniform from his own, and questioned: “You’d better give me an explanation. It’s not time for me to meet you yet.”

Thadius showed Johnson a piece of parchment with some words written on it. The most important thing was the wax seal issued and stamped by the governor.

“Admiral Johnson, from this moment on, you are relieved of all command power over the Mingyan City garrison. From now on, the defense and military construction of Mingyan City will be fully taken over by me.”

“Bullshit!” Johnson slapped the table and stood up, “I am the planetary admiral! You want to dismiss me with a document out of thin air? Wishful thinking!”

“This is the order of the governor. Your rank of admiral and commander position are only appointed within the planetary defense force system. The governor has full power to dismiss you and deprive you of your military rank.”

“How many divisions does the governor have in Mingyan City?” Johnson said with a hidden threat, “I have been guarding Mingyan City for 20 years. Every officer here is either promoted by me or has fought with me. They respect me and love me. If I am not in this position, I am afraid the army will not be at peace. The governor does not want the Mingyan City garrison to be in chaos at a critical moment, right?”

Hearing this, Thadius’s face did not change at all.

He placed the dismissal document signed by the governor in front of Admiral Johnson’s desk, and then took out a booklet.

“Mateus, the commander of the 31st Division of the Yancheng Garrison Army, Laurent, the commander of the 37th Division, Andre, the commander of the 49th Division, and Patoski, the commander of the 71st Division…”

Johnson’s face changed with each name

he read. These were almost the most trusted and trusted generals in the army.

After reading nearly twenty names in a row, Thaddeus stopped and gave the final verdict: “They will all be dismissed.”

“Impossible!” Johnson glared at Thaddeus, “They are all under the protection of their respective troops, how is it possible!…”

Just as he said this, a phone in his office suddenly rang.

There are several phones on the desk, and the one that rang is the least used, but also the most important. When it rang, it means that something extremely urgent has happened.

Thaddeus made a gesture to go ahead.

Johnson picked up the phone: “This is Johnson, tell me if you have something to say…”

Then, his face became more and more ugly.

Until finally, the microphone fell from his hand.

He looked at Thadius in disbelief: “How…how is it possible? A few hours? Nineteen division commanders, you broke into the army and killed them all?”

“This is the fate of traitors to the Empire. At the same time, the military court has already pronounced a verdict on your treasonous behavior…”

“Wait! When was there a military court on Koroja?”

“There was no military court on Koroja, but there was one in the Alliance. Koroja is already a member of the Alliance.”

“But there was no trial process!”

“I am the chief political commissar of the Alliance, and the highest judgment of the trial process is in my hands.”

“What was the result of the trial?”

Thaddeus pulled out a pistol and pointed it at Admiral Johnson’s forehead.

“Wait! Wait! I have done meritorious service to the planet, I have shed blood for the city of Yan, you can’t treat me like this, I want to see the Governor! I…”

“Bang!”

“…Death penalty.” Thaddeus softly read out the sentence.

Admiral Johnson, with a pierced forehead, fell on his back.
