#488 - Internal rectification!
#488 - Internal rectification!
At the summit of Campana Mountain near Hermosillo.
Standing here, you can overlook the entire city…
There's a private mansion here, and outsiders don't know what's inside. They only know the number: 467, with soldiers stationed and patrolling year-round.
This is actually one of the Gonzalez family's "vacation homes," but at this moment, it's being used to host Viktor.
You can see guards every three steps and sentries every five steps at the entrance.
"General, in a few months, Caesar will be one year old. I want to take him to Dubai for a visit," Christa Schroeder said, watching Viktor playing with his son, wiping the drool from the corner of his mouth with a napkin.
"Go to Dubai?"
"Isn't Mexico enough for you?" Viktor raised an eyebrow, glancing at her. "If you need anything, have them brought to the house. Our conflict with the Americans has just ended, and many eyes are on me."
Most importantly…
He didn't know how it got out, but the public now knows that Viktor has a child, gender unknown, with detailed rumors.
This kind of thing can't be hidden!
The Americans and the NATO gang will definitely try to make trouble. They might not dare to come openly, but won't they do it secretly?
Hearing Viktor's refusal, Christa Schroeder opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but didn't know how, feeling a bit depressed.
She felt like she was a caged… canary.
Thump, thump, thump~
Hasty footsteps sounded from the entrance. Viktor turned around and saw Casarez and Chief Guard Xia Fei rushing in anxiously, their faces very gloomy.
He touched Caesar's face, asking Christa Schroeder to take him inside first.
She responded quickly, and when she walked away with the child in her arms, she couldn't help but look back. She really wanted to know… what exactly had happened!
"Boss, Vasily drove out of the Fourth Army headquarters, injured Rommel's secretary, caused a collision on the road, and randomly strafed, killing 11 civilians and injuring 9… He was caught by the Fourth Army's emergency response team that arrived."
As he spoke, his voice grew softer and softer, because he could feel the boss's eyes becoming more and more fierce, his expression… murderous!
"Send Erich Ludendorff (Chief of the Army General Staff) to the Fourth Army to oversee the situation, investigate everyone related to Vasily, remove Rommel from his position as commander of the Fourth Army, temporarily replace him as commander, suspend his post-war commendations and awards, dismiss the head of the military discipline department, order immediate retirement, remove Fedor von Bock from his position as chief of staff, record a major demerit, temporarily replace him as chief of staff…"
"Remove the Fourth Army's collective First Class Merit, individual merits will not be abolished!"
"Order local doctors to concentrate on rescuing the wounded!"
He paused, his eyes frighteningly cold, "Send Vasily to the Alvarez sculpture in the "Sonora Liberation Cemetery" in Hermosillo for hammer execution! Confiscate all his property and put his family under house arrest!"
This series of actions.
It could only be said that the Fourth Army was unlucky…
But there was no way around it. Who told Rommel that he didn't manage his subordinates well?
After the "Tian" incident that year, that division was withdrawn and disbanded on the spot. A heroic unit that came from the war years was disbanded because of one person, which was regrettable…
Viktor's actions already seemed lenient, at least he didn't completely demote them!
Casarez pursed his lips beside him, his right eyebrow twitching hard.
In fact, Rommel's biggest loss was not these, but that he had already been eliminated in the selection of "Theater Commander"!
The general would not choose a punished general, and his future promotion path would definitely be somewhat uneasy.
"Hurry up and go!"
Viktor glanced at Chief Guard Xia Fei, who shivered, saluted, and hurried out.
Only Viktor and Casarez were left in the yard…
Viktor retorted, squinting his eyes, "Don't hide this kind of dirty thing when it happens, release it! Also, make a special documentary to tell the public why a drug enforcement warrior, after mastering power within two years, became a slave to money!"
"I think I've been too lenient in supervising the elite class…"
"The patriotism, love for the people, and even the dedication to Mexico that I have been emphasizing are completely seen by some people above as empty talk for me to seize power. Excessive power breeds excessive corruption!"
"I want to expand the number of the Internal Affairs Bureau (Thirteen Taibao) and increase the monitoring and investigation of high-level personnel!"
Viktor took a deep breath, his eyelids twitching, "We must not let ambition and morality override the law!"
Isn't there a very paranoid saying: "Laws are used to restrain the poor." Although it's very extreme, it still has some bullshit truth to it.
"In addition, I will establish the Mexican Advisory Office, drawing 5 people from the high-level to serve as advisors. They will jointly decide the future of Mexico with me, and… if I have an accident, the leader will be selected from these people!"
One person's strength will be exhausted.
And the reason for choosing 5 people is to slowly shift the power down. He understood a little, perhaps he could learn from Napoleon and directly become emperor. With his prestige, no one could deny him.
But what about a hundred years later?
What if his descendants were incompetent?
Where would that take Mexico?
When a strongman appears and calls for change, will he be pushed off the stage or go to the guillotine? Both are disgraceful, so it's better to… let descendants have their own fortune.
If the descendants have the ability, they can rush to this position.
If not, transfer the power to the families of the other 5 advisors, ensuring that power circulates within a small group. Relying on my protection, future generations will not be completely exterminated.
I cannot only be skilled in governing the country but clumsy in managing my own life.
Perhaps the Vierri family will become a cancer in Mexico's future, but who knows what the future holds.
Casare's pupils contracted. He was a smart man and could understand the meaning.
"Don't worry, you will be one of them. As for the remaining four spots, I plan to give one to Cuauhtémoc. As for the remaining three, I will observe carefully."
"Boss, this..."
"Don't tell anyone about this, keep it buried in your own stomach."
"Boss, don't worry! I swear to my ancestors, if I reveal it, may I be hit by a car when I go out, and may my whole family die in accidents!" Casare raised his hand and began to make a poisonous oath.
Although metaphysical things are uncertain, this is an attitude.
Viktor waved his hand, "After this matter, Felic should go to the Mexican Workers' School for a period of study. After graduating, go to Guadalupe Island to serve as mayor."
!!!!!
Good heavens...
Casare was also staring, his heart boiling.
A battalion commander was removed, then sent to the highest institution of the Workers' Party for further study, and then went to be the mayor, and it was Guadalupe Island!
That is the land where he rose to prominence, and it still regards Viktor as his "second hometown." Although the place is not big, its historical status and the general's feelings are different. It is equivalent to Chiang Kai-shek letting you go to his hometown to be the county magistrate...
And letting you go to worship his family's ancestral graves.
"I thank the boss for Felic!"
"I hope he can do well and not forget that our current life is hard-won. Work hard."
The second generation of the Gonzalez family is about to officially enter a stage of rapid rise.
......
Under Viktor's personal instructions, the "Vasily Incident" became known throughout the country that afternoon, and even the neighboring United States had news reports.
The whole country was in an uproar!
It became a hot topic in the streets and alleys during leisure time.
There were all kinds of opinions. Some people said that Vasily was dissatisfied with General Viktor's distribution and wanted fairness, so he created the tragedy.
Others said that Vasily betrayed Mexico and turned to the United States. The FBI asked him to defect with important secrets, but he was discovered and shot his comrades.
In short, there were all kinds of rumors.
The only thing that could be determined was that this incident made Mexico, which was complacent because of its victory over Mexico, calm down a lot.
May 7th.
Army Chief of Staff Erich Ludendorff arrived in San Diego by military plane.
An army conference was to be held immediately!
At the meeting, the punishment for Rommel and others, and the decision to cancel the Fourth Army's first-class merit were announced.
The soldiers sitting upright were in an uproar when they heard this.
Bang!
Ludendorff slammed the table hard, glaring, "Is this the discipline of the Fourth Army? What are you doing? What do you want to do with your merits? Can the Fourth Army fight, but other armies can't? I tell you, if the general didn't think you were hardworking, he would have disbanded your Fourth Army long ago!"
"Are you ashamed of what happened? Your honor as soldiers has been destroyed by your own people."
All the soldiers below quieted down.
"Humph!"
"If something goes wrong, then change it. I know you feel aggrieved, then take back your honor. Each and every one of you are arrogant soldiers. Rommel, is this how you lead your troops? Next, the Fourth Army will undergo three months of disciplinary training."
"Yes!"
Ludendorff took a sip of tea, gulping, "But don't worry, the general personally issued instructions regarding the pension issue, everyone is not finished. Now I will call out the names, and those whose names are called will follow the Internal Affairs Bureau behind."
He took out a piece of paper from his pocket.
"Ervindo Kredo!"
A colonel sitting on the stage was stunned, his face changed drastically, and he stood up tremblingly.
Rommel and Staff Officer Boger looked at him in shock.
He is... the Minister of Procurement of the Fourth Army.
"Take him away!"
With a wave of Ludendorff's hand, the members of the Internal Affairs Bureau behind him came up and handcuffed the other party behind their backs, and pulled him off the stage directly.
The soldiers below looked at him indignantly.
Bah, bastard!
A mongrel with no collective honor!
If it were not for military discipline, someone would have stood up to beat him now.
"Smith Boggs."
A lieutenant colonel sitting below fell off his chair with a pale face. He was still twitching on the ground. Was he frightened?
"Angola Sanchez."
As he called out one name after another, there were as many as 40 people.
So many people in just one military department are related to the "embezzlement of pension" case?
It's simply...
Outrageous!
The list was read for a full 20 minutes. Ludendorff put the list away, and the people below obviously breathed a sigh of relief. Even if they didn't do it, this kind of thing was still very frightening, and the atmosphere was too stiff.
"The general said that we must maintain the purity of the troops. Each and every one of you must pay attention. The eyes of the Internal Affairs Bureau are watching."
Rommel's face was livid. Shame, too shameful!
"Where is Vasily? The general wants to send him to Sonora State to be executed. It will be broadcast live, and all cadres at the regimental level will have to watch!"
Ludendorff's eyes swept over, his tone cold: "Let you calm down!"
