Chapter 1720 Guess

The Boise riot was far-reaching, the largest grassroots rebellion since the Brotherhood of Steel was formed. What is even more surprising is the dramatic way in which this large and well-organized rebellion was put down.

Officials in the city were being assassinated one after another, and the surviving key officials couldn't escape. When the whole city was in internal and external troubles, tens of thousands of workers in the city took up arms spontaneously to defend the city and their right to survive.

This has never happened since the Cataclysm.

Hmm..., there weren't that many workers in the past. Those workers were formerly homeless in the city.

The defenders burst out with strong fighting enthusiasm. They easily defeated more than 10,000 gangsters who were rampant in the last days, and chased them for a long distance. More than 2,000 gangsters were killed on the spot, and countless wounded.

After arming the workers, many farmers in the surrounding towns of Boise also came to support with guns. They just learned that the city was attacked by bandits on the radio, so they acted spontaneously. But they acted very decisively and played a big role.

The fleeing gangsters were killed or captured by farmers who blocked all roads, basically after this battle. The banditry around Boise has been completely resolved, and even if there are still sporadic bandits, it is impossible to cause any more trouble.

And for all this, Mr. Franklin, the head of the Masonic Society that ruled Idaho, was not too happy. When he led the team to Boise the next day after the incident, his brows were furrowed.

In the city, the workers who had just won were in high spirits. They didn't sleep all night, and the carnival was still full of energy the next day. Countless people marched through the streets with guns, clutching wine bottles and singing. These people usually don't have any entertainment, and they celebrate this victory as a festival.

President Franklin drove into the city hall, and compared with the cheering crowd on the street, it became a funeral home. Yesterday, many senior officials including the mayor were killed one after another. The police are investigating the scene, and the bodies have just been removed.

"Who did it?" President Franklin called a meeting of city officials and asked sullenly in the meeting room, "Who is behind this riot?"

Everyone in the conference room looked at each other in blank dismay. Occasionally someone spoke, but it was just speculation. This situation made the president even more annoyed to raise his voice: "Are all the people in the police station sleepwalking? Who is maintaining the law and order of the city?"

Several policemen in the meeting room were even more uneasy. Someone said weakly: "The chief and deputy chief of our police station have been killed, and several middle and high-level police officers have also died with unknown causes. Now the highest official is a neighborhood police station The chief, he was also seriously injured in the hospital."

Regarding this answer, President Franklin was helpless. During the catastrophe, officials, army, police, and consortium personnel all disappeared. Those who disappeared were all the elites, and the remaining talents were few and far between.

Freemasonry is a group of intellectuals and businessmen, and Franklin himself was a political science professor at a private university. Nor can he conjure up a group of experienced civil servants out of thin air to strengthen the ruling class.

No one can match the Aurora Legion in terms of ruling system. When the Brotherhood of Steel was consumed by more than a hundred divisions, only Miss Lena Fox of the Legion was desperately recruiting and cultivating administrative talents. This made all organizations in the wasteland extremely envious.

There was silence in the conference room for a while, and someone said weakly: "We captured a lot of prisoners yesterday and interrogated the cause of the riot overnight. We found that a woodyard manager named Fedro was an important organizer and internal response."

"Has this man been caught?"

"Caught him, he admitted that he was the mastermind, and also confessed that Victor Hugo of the Aurora Legion was behind the incident. The assassination of a large number of officials in the city was also caused by the special forces of the Aurora Legion he led."

After saying this, the meeting room became even quieter. Your Excellency the president was silent for a while and then said calmly: "This is slander, he must have other masterminds."

Federo's testimonials weighed heavily on many people's hearts.

Whether what he said was true or false, but what he said would have a great impact.

The strength of the Aurora Legion is undoubtedly reflected in the huge amount of commodity trade, and it is not that no one has noticed some kind of political erosion behind the trade. In fact, this urban riot has already reflected the rapidly expanding influence of the Legion in North America.

Most of the armed workers who stood up to resist were recruited by the Aurora Legion to set up factories, and even a large number of farmers lived on the loans and underwriting contracts of the Aurora Legion. Regardless of whether the Freemasonry admits it or not, there is already an additional force of other people's family on their territory.

Before the riot happened, the Masonic officials could still pretend not to see it. Because they themselves have benefited greatly from factories and trade, but this riot has exposed this force that cannot be underestimated.

And Fedro's testimony is tantamount to piercing the last layer of window paper. Whether he is slandering or not is not important at all. What is important is that President Franklin came to Boise this time to investigate and solve this problem.

But the president said it was a 'slander', so Federo was a 'slander'. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and they didn't want to make things big. It is best to maintain the status quo, and making money is the most important thing.

The meeting did not solve any problems, but instead caused President Franklin even more headaches. And just as the meeting was adjourning, an official quietly approached the president and said something in a low voice.

"What?" Your Excellency the president was immediately surprised, "Who else knows about this?"

The official shook his head and said in a low voice: "He did participate in this riot. He was caught by a group of farmers when he fled. He revealed his identity and asked the farmers to contact his uncle for a reward. But the farmers didn't believe him. If not, send him to us instead.

He denied that the riot had anything to do with him or his uncle, saying he had been implicated inexplicably. But it's really hard for us to believe his words. The newspapers say that he is a liar and cheats people everywhere. "

Hearing the official's description, President Franklin also snorted coldly, "That bastard relied on his uncle as a backer, and he did a lot of bad things. He is indeed a little bastard who is full of lies, and he cannot be trusted at all."

The officials were also resentful, "Could it be that this matter really has nothing to do with the Aurora Legion, who in New York did it?"

The president nodded in affirmative tone this time and said: "This is probably the truth. Which majesty has no reason to cheat us at this time, but which king of New York has cheated us more than once or twice."

After the president finished speaking, he added in his heart, "The Aurora Legion is not a good person, so we must be vigilant." He closed his eyes and thought for a while, "I'm going to meet that kid, he should still be useful, even a chess piece that can play a big role."
