Start with Planetary Governor

Chapter 88, Artillery (seeking the first order!!!)

Bradford has a sinister plan.

Pretend to agree to Norris's condition of giving up resistance, then go back on his word and kill him.

Lambert was a little tempted by this proposal, but ultimately refused to do so.

Indeed, as Bradford said, it would save a great deal of effort, at least not to fight.For a hard attack, thousands of people, even ordinary workers, were armed, basically only equipped with light weapons, but after all, they were defending in the reinforced factory. If you want to conquer it, you need to work hard. Even need to bear a lot of casualties.

But Lambert was going to do it anyway.

The main reason is that he doesn't want Gu Hang to bear the name of a betrayer.

In private, any method is acceptable, but on the surface, as a ruler, credit is very important, and even in a sense it represents credibility and whether the policy is easy to be trusted by the public.

In this case, pretend to be upright.

Being clever here may indeed save a lot of effort in solving Norris's problem, but the price of taking a shortcut at this moment may be doubled from other places.

After making this decision, he also used it to mock Bradford, saying that he can only be a businessman in this life, and will never understand the pattern of a politician who does great things.

Bradford was speechless.

Lambert's actions also received additional support.

He mobilized two infantry battalions to enter the city with the governor, and also pulled out a dozen heavy artillery pieces from the captured military weapons, and made a strong attack posture.

Norris sent envoys to discuss terms of surrender, but Lambert once again sternly refused.

Lambert asked all those who were stubbornly fighting in the factory to surrender unconditionally, lay down their weapons, and wait for the governor's trial.

It was an ultimatum, and Lambert would only give them an hour.

The news was brought back to the factory by the messenger, and the people inside were silent.

After an hour, when no one came out to surrender, Lambert ordered the battle to begin.

Pulled by him to help Perbov, he ordered his 2nd Battalion and started fiddling with the big newly acquired toy.

Those were five 5mm howitzers; the 155th Battalion, which was pulled to work together next door, also had five captured artillery pieces as battalion-owned firepower.

Ten heavy cannons fired in unison, and shells were fired into the factory.

A round of volleys went down, and black smoke billowed from the factory.

The governor's soldiers rushed inside in no hurry.

When the enemy is completely surrounded, it would be a fool not to make good use of the heavy artillery and use the lives of soldiers to pay for it.Anyway, there are a lot of shells in stock. Ten artillery pieces will fire ten or twenty rounds of the motherfuckers first.

In the process, Lambert also received additional assistance.

Sister Gerrit brought six nuns here.

……

It was not the first time Lambert had met the nuns of the Lily of Mercy.

To be honest, he prefers these battle nuns who always have a gentle smile on their faces compared to the phoenixes who have dark faces all day long and look like no strangers are allowed in.

Although fighting, these nuns are equally ruthless.

However, I have seen it before, but it is the first time to communicate, and Lambert seems a little cautious.

"Nice to meet you, Senior Sister, thank you very much for coming to help us."

Gerrit said: "You're welcome, we are all fighting for the empire. Mr. Lambert, I have heard about what happened to your family. It's a pity that this happened to you."

"Thank you. However, I remember that you and your subordinates should be investigating the traces of the cult in the city? How can you have time to participate in the battle here in the factory?"

Gerrit responded: "There is evil hidden in this factory. Moreover, the activities of the cultists may be related to the catastrophe suffered by your Hodgson family."

Lambert paid attention immediately.

"Can you tell me?"

"It's not impossible."

Then, the head nun told Lambert, a descendant of the victim, what she had discovered during this period in more detail.

She went to investigate the death scene of the old Hodgson, and found a remnant of heresy in the Hodgson family mansion.

Therefore, she believed that heresy was involved in the assassination of old Hodgson.

The other sisters went to investigate other clues, and she came here with six people.

At the beginning, the mastermind who planned to assassinate Hodgson was Mondock, but that person was dead; the remaining two participants were here, and she came to understand the situation.

After learning of this, Lambert immediately dragged Bradford out.

In the details about the old Hodgson's death that this guy revealed before, he didn't mention anything about the cult.

Bradford was also stunned after hearing the head nun's question.

He doesn't know!
He didn't lie, he has reached the point where he is now, and he is working hard to survive and seek a possible commutation of sentence.About the cult, if he knew about it, how could he help those cult members to hide it?He wished he could sell all those brainless guys.

But he really didn't know about it.The assassination was the mastermind of Mundoc, and Bradford only participated in the aftermath and carve-up. He didn't care how the assassination was done.

In his opinion, it is not difficult for Mundoc, a guy who has mastered the military power of the alliance, to do this.

As it turned out, the Hodgsons disappeared from their own mansion one night.

After confirming that Bradford was indeed not lying, and that there was indeed no aura related to a cult in him, the head nun let him go.

Then, she set her sights on the factory area in front of her that was still being bombarded by artillery fire.

There, there was the last plotter involved in Hodgson's assassination, that is, old Norris.

In that factory, she could feel the fluctuations belonging to the evil energy of the storm.

That is heresy sorcerous energy—the extraordinary power that does not believe in the God-Emperor, but prays from elsewhere, is heresy in the eyes of the state religion.

Even some radicals believe that spontaneously generated psykers are also heresy, and there should be no legal psykers in this world.

And these extremists are usually accused of heresy by the Imperial Spiritual Society. It is common for the two sides to fight with each other, and even destroy each other physically.

Mercy Lily is not that kind of extremist, otherwise the first thing they would be hostile to would be the governor himself.

It's just that, from other extraordinary creatures, through the connection of faith, the extraordinary energy obtained through the prayer of heretical rituals, no matter what faction the members of the state religion will hate it.
