Chapter 346 Reaction
"WTF, what's going on, why is such a complicated situation happening?"

In a tavern in a border town slightly south of Missouri, Sheriff Owen was half-leaning in front of the table, holding a beer glass in his hand, looking at the news broadcast on the TV with a shocked expression, looking a little incredulous.

The atmosphere of war spread across the entire continent, and the disputes between the Eternal Night Church gradually began to be exposed to the public, and the friction became more and more serious.

On the TV, there was news that Lyon announced at a press conference that Smith and Epad were the judges and ordered believers around the world to crusade.

Owen is also an Eternal Night believer who goes to Eternal Night Church to pray every week. However, he has not joined Eternal Night Church. Therefore, he is not very clear about the disputes within the church and is very shocked by this matter.

From the bottom of his heart, he actually supports the Archbishop of Lyon. After all, the Eternal Night Church's propaganda is mainly based on the Archbishop of Lyon.

However, their local church priest publicly spoke against Lyon, which made him very confused and didn't know what to do.

"The archbishop had a dispute with other bishops. Why were the troops mobilized?"

Next to Owen, a young man bit an apple and said something mysteriously. It was a line of text scrolling below the TV, which contained news about the transfer of No. 80 Eighth Extraordinary Master in Hawaii.

Owen glanced at the young man and said: "The commander of No. 80 Eighth Division is a Yongye cultist, and the night watchman is also a Yongye cultist. Basically, the regiment-level officers have a Yongye background. They are probably going to be transferred back to fight. ."

"Not only the army in Hawaii, but also the North's troops stationed in the Maple Leaf Country. The extraordinary 31st, 40th and 98th Divisions that fought against the Destroyers have all been transferred back to the country and moved closer to Boston. I heard that even the Coast Guard has begun Got nervous."

At this moment, an old man who looked like he was wandering behind them in the tavern said.

As the town's police chief, Owen knew this old man, who was an officer who had served in the extraordinary army.

Most of the U.S. troops are ordinary troops. The extraordinary army only has 22 divisions. Now four divisions have been mobilized. As people expected, the pace of war is approaching.

At this moment, the young man suddenly spoke, seeming to be very interested in this matter: "I remember that we also have a supernatural force stationed in Missouri, right? It seems to be the No. 18 Extraordinary Mobile Force Division?"

The old man who had served in the 18th Division smiled slightly and said: "That's right, but the commander of the 18th Division is a magician who graduated from Jindal Magic Academy. He should not participate in the war of the Evernight Church. We still have It’s relatively safe.”

Upon hearing this, Chief Owen frowned and reminded kindly: "It's not good for us to know about the extraordinary army, isn't it?"

Owen also served in the military, but the army he served in was just an ordinary army, using only ordinary firearms, while the extraordinary army used extraordinary firearms engraved with extraordinary inscriptions, and the officers were all genuine extraordinary beings. Naturally and Ordinary armies are different.

In order to maintain the mystery of the extraordinary troops, all countries will not disclose the characteristics of the extraordinary troops and keep them mysterious. Therefore, regarding the situation of the extraordinary troops, Sheriff Owen feels that it is better not to listen.

"It doesn't matter. Now that we've reached this point, there's no problem in talking about it."

The old man who had served in the No. 18 Division was very calm. He waved his hand to Owen and said, "The extraordinary troops are just that. Except for the weapons they use are weapons engraved with extraordinary inscriptions, extraordinary people often appear in the army. Other than that, there's nothing special about it."

He was the last batch of mortal officers of the No.18 Division. After a few short months of integration, he retired and went home, hiding his name in this border town.

No one would have thought that this ordinary-looking old man had ever been promoted to deputy division commander.

It's a pity that the extraordinary force was completely reformed, and even the former division commander was replaced by a graduate student from Jindal Magic Academy, let alone him.

"This is already the most special thing, okay?"

After Chief Owen laughed and complained, he looked at the old man and smiled, and drank all the beer in the beer glass in his hand.

The young man curled his lips, as if he wanted to say something, but the TV screen in front of him suddenly changed, and then the governor of Missouri suddenly appeared on the TV with a serious expression.

"Dear friends of Missouri, America has experienced countless ups and downs in the history of Missouri since its independence."

The governor of Missouri read the opening words seriously, and when he saw that in addition to the governor of Missouri, there were also missionaries wearing missionary robes from the Evernight Church, Owen's heart sank immediately, and the old man also understood something.

Is Missouri going to join the war? !
Sure enough, the governor of Missouri immediately talked about the recent operations of the Eternal Night Church, and at the same time announced that Missouri would support Archbishop Lyon, the army would be under martial law, and he would be wary of military actions in the south.

Sheriff Owen asked directly.

You should know that although the governors in the United States are not under the jurisdiction of the president, they do not have a single-handed power in the state. The United States has three branches of power, and the governor, state assembly, and state courts have different responsibilities.

The governor cannot directly mobilize the military. He only has the power to mobilize the National Guard within the state, and it is not complete. What on earth is the governor of Missouri doing?

However, Sheriff Owen knew that the governor, the state assembly, and the state court should have reached some unknown conditions. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the governor of Missouri to announce such a thing.

“Things are going to change in Missouri.”

When the old man heard the words, he sighed quietly and said to the left and right: "Our guess is correct, the war is about to start, but...Missouri may not be able to survive alone this time."

The young man spoke nervously: "We are just a small town here, so it shouldn't be too affected."

Before the governor announced the news, he was the one who most wanted to fight. However, when he learned that Missouri would also join the war, he was confused and became a little hesitant to speak.

"I can only hope so."

Sheriff Owen nodded and subconsciously moved his fingers towards the gun bag. It seemed that only firearms could bring him a sense of security.

Sheriff Owen was a young man who had witnessed the rush to the aid of the Gamma World. Naturally, he understood how important it was to own weapons in a war-torn era: especially when he could legally carry firearms everywhere, and he had an official Family status person.

"Young people, don't panic, the war may not start yet."

Seeing that the young man seemed a little nervous, the old man said jokingly: "Perhaps our governor is just giving verbal support and will not cause any war. Don't be too nervous."

Sheriff Owen also calmed down and spoke together with the old man: "Moreover, even if the war continues, it will not last long. Most of them will be just small-scale conflicts, and then extraordinary people will use extraordinary means to resolve them. Ross not long ago Aren’t the conflicts between countries in Europe resolved through extraordinary beings?”

He said he was in danger for the young man, but it was more like he was comforting himself.

There is nothing wrong with what they said, it is indeed possible.

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom"

Suddenly there was a rather noisy sound outside, the sound was extremely harsh, and the sound pollution was extremely serious, which caused the displeasure of the guests in the tavern. The waiter looked out the glass cursingly, but when he saw the scene outside, that The cursing words could not help but stop.

A huge armed helicopter hovered directly in the sky not far from the tavern, and a ladder was thrown directly from the helicopter. Two military trucks also appeared around, filled with fully armed soldiers.

The leading officer walked directly from the co-pilot of the truck, pushed open the door to the waiter's shock, looked at the old man, and said: "Brigadier General Mond, after re-examination by the headquarters, you have been incorporated into the combat staff. , please follow us to Division No. 18 immediately!"

"The staff of the No. 18 Division?"

The old man named Mond was a little surprised and said to the officer who seemed to have a low military rank: "Oh damn, you don't really want to fight, do you?!"

The No. 18 Division is an extraordinary army. Most of the officers at the regimental level and above in the entire division are powerful extraordinary people. Although they have also received military education and understand the basic requirements for marching and fighting, compared to those with rich experience, Older officers are much worse.

Therefore, these extraordinary armies have specialized military experts, that is, the staff department, to advise them, while the officers make decisions and plans, and at the same time formulate extraordinary strikes against the enemy.

It's not that there aren't extraordinary people who are proficient in military affairs, but there are very few. Most of these extraordinary people who are proficient in military affairs are incorporated into the [-]th Division, which is stationed in Washington and serves as the president's elite force.

And now, even a veteran brigadier general like him who has been retired for three or four years has been pulled to the staff department. Doesn't this mean that a war is really possible here? !
Seeing that the officer did not give him a reply, Mond immediately raised his eyebrows angrily and yelled: "I am an old man, why should I go to the staff department? And I have been retired for five years. I no longer belong to the military, Mr. Captain, Please don’t disturb my life!”

When the officer saw this, he had no choice but to do anything to Mond. He could only say helplessly: "Brigadier General Mond, this is an order signed by Mr. President and written by the division commander himself. Please don't embarrass us."

"In that case, tell me the truth, otherwise I will not leave here." Mond said stubbornly.

After hearing this, the officer hesitated for a moment, looked around at the people in the tavern, waved his hand, and ordered the soldiers: "The following content is a military secret. Please temporarily ask these people to leave and sign a confidentiality agreement regarding the previous content. .”

Immediately, Sheriff Owen, the young man, the tavern owner, and the waiter were all 'invited' out of the tavern to sign some confidentiality agreement, while the officer stayed in the tavern to explain the current situation to Brigadier General Mond.

"Mr. Brigadier General, I believe you have read the news and have some understanding of the current situation."

The officer took a deep breath and spoke slowly: "Currently, there are troops from the south approaching Missouri, but the marching speed is extremely slow. It is most likely just to deter us, but we cannot ignore it, so No. Only the 18th Division will be mobilized.”

"We hope to use your rich experience to gain a certain advantage in the confrontation."

After hearing these words, Mond was in disbelief.

A small captain shouldn't know too many details about such a big plan.

But knowing this is enough.

After all, he has not been in contact with the army for a long time, so he just takes this opportunity to show the government and the people that the army is still under military command after all!

The officer described the current situation for about five minutes. After Mond nodded with satisfaction, he opened his mouth and said: "I have settled the general situation now. Let's go now. I think I should already know what I should do."
