Snow Leopard: Building the Strongest Elite Group through Robbery

Chapter 945 The Empire is in trouble this time

Deng Yaoxian put down his teacup and said, "As long as George isn't in the position of Governor, he can avoid responsibility. This time, it was he who suggested transporting the money away. No matter what, he's inextricably linked to this. Now everyone over there wants an explanation from Edward. Rather than letting Edward take advantage of this and leave, George should take the initiative to tell Edward that he will take responsibility and request a demotion."

"Second, third, or fourth, it doesn't really make any difference. It's better to stick to him than to let others come up to him. This way, he can leave a significant impression on Edward, which will be very beneficial for him to restore his status in the future. Moreover, the lower he goes, the less responsibility he will bear in the future. After all, Edward has a title, and the locals won't touch him easily. George solved this problem for him, so he naturally won't let George bear any responsibility in the future. This is a kind of transaction. It seems unfair, but it is a transaction paved for the future."

"Fourth brother is right. He can indeed be made to take on this responsibility. Then, I'll ask Fourth brother to remind him about this matter."

George's Mansion. Ever since Zhou Weiguo left, the situation here has become increasingly frantic. Some people who were originally planning to withdraw to Central Asia, forgetting the dark clouds of war looming over Delhi, have begun to join the parade like crazy.

George understood the madness of this group of people, but he did not support it.

Money can be earned back if lost, but if life is lost, then there is nothing left. These people are all well-known figures, and the military and police dare not really take action against them. The situation is becoming more and more chaotic.

He also believed that Zhou Weiguo must have been instigated by someone before leaving.

"I thought it would be quiet here after he left, but I didn't expect that he would leave me such a mess after he left. It's really a scourge that will last for thousands of years." George stood on the guardrail and looked at the people marching in the distance, then turned around and went back to his room.

Not long after, Alice walked in wearing a short skirt and suit.

"How is it?" George put down his coffee and asked. This morning, someone left him a note saying that Shancheng wanted to see him about something, but it was not convenient for him to go there at that time, so he asked Alice to go and contact the person.

Alice put down her briefcase and said, "It was Zhou Weiguo's man. He conveyed Zhou Weiguo's intention, asking you to go to Edward and take the initiative to assume this responsibility, and then request a demotion."

Requesting demotion?

George pondered for a moment and nodded. "This is a good idea. Admitting your mistakes will gain a positive influence on Edward. This will be beneficial to our future advancement and stability. Get ready. I need to see the Governor."

It was his own fault, so what's wrong with taking responsibility for it? Edward wants to leave this place, but that's not possible. Of course, he can leave, but the prerequisite is that this position cannot fall on him, otherwise there will be big trouble in the future.

Edward was already a little overwhelmed.

Seeing George come in, he took a deep breath and said, "I have a vague feeling that someone is instigating this. Maybe there is a big conspiracy here."

You guessed right. If I'm not mistaken, Zhou Weiguo has already set off. This is more than just a big conspiracy. It's to make the Japanese army hate our existence.

"Your Excellency the Governor's concerns are correct, but I think we should actively address the current public anger. Today, some demonstrations have already begun and have clashed with the military and police. If we don't contain them quickly, chaos will soon follow. The Japanese army is actively deploying troops. If they attack, it will be difficult to stop them when we are internally unstable and surrounded by external enemies."

How could Edward not know this problem? It was precisely because he knew this that he wrote a resignation report to the mainland. What a joke! The Japanese army suddenly launched a fierce attack on the mountain city. Their domestic army was simply unable to stop it. Therefore, they suddenly pulled half of the hundreds of thousands of troops stationed in Mandalay, and they were all elite troops.

They have to ensure domestic needs first, so it is unclear whether they will seriously contain the enemy at that time. He cannot stay here.

But he was disappointed. The telegram he sent that day was rejected that afternoon. He couldn't leave. The higher-ups were tying him down.

"What do you have in mind?" Edward asked, motioning him to sit down.

"Your Excellency, Governor, this incident is my fault. If I hadn't proposed this, we wouldn't have encountered such a disaster. I will take responsibility for this. I request that I be demoted and fined a year's salary to quell this disturbance. This way, your Excellency will be relieved of the pressure."

As for the money for the year, that's a joke. He's not short of money, at least not now.

Edward glanced at him and said, "But you will face a lot of criticism if you do this, which is not fair to you."

"It's my honor to be able to do something for His Excellency the Governor." George's righteousness moved Edward to nod. "Okay, I will remember your contribution today."

Since I can't leave, I have to let one person take on this responsibility.

He motioned George to leave, then called his secretary and said, "Write a report on the Japanese army's despicable behavior to relieve George's pressure from the side.

Since George was helping me so much, I naturally wouldn't let him down. No matter what, I would help him from the side.

This act of helping his subordinates was reported in the newspapers the next day.

The originally angry people suddenly had an outlet to vent.

Slogans such as "Kill the yellow pig" and "Teach them Tokyo a lesson" began to spread everywhere, while George, who took the initiative to take responsibility, was recuperating at home. After all, he had been dismissed and was now waiting for news at home.

"It's getting worse." Hearing the shouting outside and the occasional sound of rocks hitting the yard, George choked, put down the newspaper in his hand, and said to Alice, who was making tea next to him, "What's going on outside now?"

"Anger, anger towards you, Your Excellency, and also anger towards the Japanese army. Even in some places in Delhi, makeshift military stations and platforms have appeared to promote the brutal and shameless actions of the Japanese army."

"I'm afraid there's something going on here from the two places."

"I don't know, but there are voices calling for Tokyo to be taught a painful lesson, to let them know what the consequences are of offending the great empire."

hum...

If this wasn't done by Zhou Weiguo and his group, the two words "George" would have been written backwards.

"Everything is going smoothly. There will be no more obstacles to their actions. The Empire is in trouble."
