Chapter 15 Chaos

The unrest in Bana City had begun. The famous commercial street was the first to be damaged, with large numbers of people pouring in to loot, vandalize, and commit arson.

The police department's emergency lines were about to explode, but no one was dealing with it. The police officers from Booker's faction were the ones who started the trouble. They had been preparing for this for at least a week.

The inaction of the higher-ups led to more serious unrest. Extreme violence occurred on the main roads and streets of the city. Some people profited from it, and others took advantage of the chaos to rob others of their property, but more were ordinary people who were inexplicably harmed.

Were all the perpetrators sent by Booker to create chaos? Were they all political thugs deliberately stirring things up?

Not really. Most of the people involved in the riots were from the bottom of society. They mostly lived unhappy lives, doing the hardest jobs. At first, they didn't dare to do this, but as they followed the leading political thugs and chanted slogans, the negative emotions that had been suppressed in their hearts suddenly turned into hostility.

They were boiling, and they seemed to have found an outlet!

The inaction of the Bana City government also gave them the opportunity to escape legal punishment, so they became unscrupulous. They began to use the slogan of overthrowing Tagu to vent their dissatisfaction with life and the world...

Were these people hateful?

Hateful! Because they attacked ordinary people like themselves. They certainly wouldn't dare to swagger around the Blackwater Company's camp, or even clash with those who looked fierce. They could only rely on their numbers to bully those who were weaker than themselves.

Were these people pathetic?

Pathetic! Because they were using their hysterical roars to fulfill other people's political interests.

When everything returned to calm, the programmers would still be programmers, and the bicycle repairmen would still be bicycle repairmen. Nothing would change...

...

The unrest in Bana City had been going on for ten hours, from night to dawn.

At this time, the Blackwater Company finally gave a strong response. A force of ten thousand men, five powerful reinforced regiments, entered the city.

Those who were rioting disappeared, and a large number of political thugs who had been leading the way scurried around like rats. The administrative backbone, led by Booker, went into hiding.

The municipal government was paralyzed, the police system was in chaos, and the soldiers of the Blackwater Company looked around, not knowing who was the enemy and who was a compatriot.

Nine o'clock in the morning.

The Bana City Blackwater Company issued a traffic restriction order through the media. For half a month, the city would be shut down. People could not leave their neighborhoods unless necessary, and could not move around in the city center. In case of emergency, they had to obtain the consent of the Blackwater Company commander stationed in their neighborhood, otherwise they would be considered illegal activities and bear legal responsibility.

After the order was issued.

Tagu met with the eldest son of Pussen. Yorlson and said bluntly: "Your father died at the hands of Booker. Are you going to choose to be a coward and surrender, or fight side by side with me?! We may die, but we will never be nailed to the pillar of shame in the history of Bana City! I have never betrayed my compatriots and hometown. District One split us apart because I didn't want to be a puppet!!"

This conversation was very direct, so direct that it sounded a bit childish, but it was strangely inspiring.

The eldest son of the Yorlson family was not an idiot. He had investigated the cause of his father's death and deduced that Booker was largely responsible.

The two were silent for a while, and then the eldest son of the Yorlson family immediately stood up and saluted: "From today onwards, the five thousand members of the Bana City Coast Guard will fight for their hometown! For my compatriots!!"

Tagu extended his palm: "Let us fight side by side, they will not defeat us easily!"

...

On the south bank of the Bana Canal, in a relatively prosperous commercial area, Booker and his core team were hiding.

With such severe unrest in the city and the Blackwater Company having entered the city, why didn't Booker choose to leave?

It wasn't that he didn't want to leave, but that he couldn't.

This coup was about whether Booker could successfully take over as the highest leader of Bana City. In short, he and his men's main battlefield was in Bana City. They were not qualified to control things remotely.

Once the leaders withdrew, who would risk their lives for you?! With an unstable military, the struggle would definitely not have a good result. So even if they died, they had to fall in the city. There was no other way to go.

Give it your all and fight for a future!

Booker had been wanting to rebel for more than a day or two. He had long been dissatisfied with his father's decisions, and he didn't want to be manipulated by that violent and impulsive Tagu in the future, so he had to fight.

District One's previous contact with Tagu was a complete deception, and Booker was the director of this deception. He and District One had secretly reached an agreement to first send the old man to heaven, then give Tagu the illusion that he could cooperate, paralyze him, take the opportunity to get rid of the slightly threatening Bruna, and finally launch a counterattack when the time was right.

Everything had gone very smoothly before, but there had been some accidents with Bruna, but that didn't matter and didn't affect the overall situation.

Booker's deepness and ruthlessness were engraved in his bones. That night, he had personally seen the people he had arranged cut off his father's head in the bedroom.

He hated his father, because Booker and Bo Ang's mother had been ruined by this old guy for their whole lives, and finally forced to death. So he wanted revenge.

Of course, whether this revenge was the most sincere cry from the heart, or just a reason to convince himself to seize power through a coup, only Booker himself knew.

Inside a hidden command center.

Booker frowned and cursed, "Tagu, that madman! He actually transferred ten thousand people back?! Doesn't he consider the threat of the War Hammer mercenary group on the periphery? Doesn't he care about the border?!"

"Yes, five regiments have already entered the city." Jaden, the president of the Legislative Council next to him, paused and said, "Do you think it's possible that Tagu has contacted the Orientals?"

Booker turned his head to look at him.

"If Tagu has reached an agreement with the Orientals, then it is possible for him to transfer all his main forces back to the city, leaving the periphery to them to contain the War Hammer Legion." Jaden frowned and said, "This is the only way to explain his motives."

Booker was good at plotting, but he didn't understand military affairs very well. After thinking for a long time, he asked, "Then should we have the War Hammer Legion keep an eye on the Sri Lanka direction?!"

"Yes!"

...

Sri Lanka.

Zhao Wei Hu's messenger found Su Tianyu: "Tagu's people have already contacted us."
