Chapter 4597: Support the uprising
Mayor Abbot finally gave in. He tremblingly raised his head and looked at Lin Rui, "Can the rebel army really protect me?"
"I think I have made it very clear. What you said just now in front of the camera, so the Orumi Federal Management Committee put you on the nails. And the rebels are going to fight them, they want to kill you , The rebel army will definitely protect you." Lin Rui nodded.
Mayor Abbott made up his mind and nodded, "I cooperate, I will listen to you. But you must keep your promise and take me away when that time comes."
Lin Rui nodded, "No problem." Then he turned to news anchor Christina, "Now, Miss News, you also do what we said."
After all, the beauty news anchor had seen the big scene, and did not feel panicked when facing the camera. While watching the press release prepared by Lin Rui's people, he adjusted his posture. Sitting on the other side of Mr. Mayor in a very elegant manner.
"Dear viewers, this is Christina of the Daily News. In response to the current series of tensions created by the opposition in Redmeer. We interviewed Mr. Abbott, the mayor of Redmeer. I want to hear him about this. Views of the matter.” After speaking, she leaned slightly and pointed the microphone in her hand at Mayor Abbott.
Mayor Abbot looked at the manuscript in his hand and nodded, “It’s a great honor to be interviewed by the Daily News. What I want to point out is that the current situation in Redman is not an accident. In fact, this is a long-term event. Accumulate until the final outbreak of popular behavior."
"Mr. Mayor, the vocabulary you just used is public behavior? Are you making everything that is happening now is a spontaneous behavior of the public?" Christina, a very skilled reporter, asked immediately without losing the opportunity.
"Yes, that's what I said. In fact, this is because the people of the Orumi Federation have been subjected to extreme injustice for a long time and trampled on their dignity. The people have been intolerable, and they have taken the initiative to speak out.
They had spoken before, but no one cared. Because no one cares about the voices of some people at the bottom. This led to some anger, which was accumulated for a long time. Now everyone is yelling and complaining about the unreasonable status quo in this country. They are not mobs, they are not rebels, they are patriots. "Mayor Abbott glanced at the manuscript and continued.
"Mr. Mayor, you think that they are a group of patriots, expressing their legitimate demands. What caused you to have such an idea?" Christina continued to ask.
"Because of reality. I have been in the post of mayor for two years. I have spent almost every day in these two years in torment. I see every day that the people are suffering and the power is doing whatever they want. Many people do not go through trial. They were shot if they were not convicted. Many people were imprisoned for a long time without any charges, even thrown into the notorious labor camps.
To be honest, I have experienced the warlord dictatorship before the establishment of the Orumi Federation. But the situation is worse now than it was then. The so-called federation is nothing but a plaything controlled by a few people. This is an age when everyone is in danger and no one feels safe. Everything is controlled by an invisible big hand.
I love this country and I can understand the anger of the people. Even I think I should support them and take action to make changes. To be honest, I have hesitated and feared. In the end, I chose to stand with the people. "Mayor Abbot nodded.
"What does it mean to stand with the people?" Christina asked.
"Federation is not a family or a group that should be privately owned and can be privately owned. The people have the right to express opinions, including expressing different and opposed opinions. Especially our current country needs such changes in the later period. If the upper level of the federation cannot do it , Then the people at the bottom have the right to fight for it in their own way.
I decided to order the police forces in the city to lay down their weapons and stop their resistance. I will communicate with the leaders of the rebel army and support their actions with practical actions. Because I feel the same for all of their experiences. I am the mayor of Redmey, but at the same time I am an Orumi like them. "Mayor Abbott replied.
"Mr. Mayor, can I understand what you mean by deciding to condone the current state of rebellion?" Christina asked sharply.
"First of all, I think this is not a rebellion. If this federation belongs to the people, then the people will not betray themselves. I prefer to call this a self-awakening and resistance of the people. We are not against the federation, we are against it. It is the absolute power above the federation.
I did not participate in the rebellion or sympathize with the rebellion, I just made a choice worthy of the nation. "Mayor Abbott replied.
"Very admirable, especially in such a situation. Let us thank Mayor Abbott. This is the Daily News and Christina reports for you." The news anchor faced the camera.
In the afternoon of the same day, the Mayor of Abbot announced that all police and paramilitary forces in the city stopped resisting, and wanted the rebel forces to surrender and accept the reorganization of the rebel forces. At the same time, the video of his interview was also broadcast to the entire Orumi Federation this afternoon.
This is the first time that federal officials surrendered to the rebels in the history of the Orumi Federation. The news video released by Mayor Abbott was carefully edited and played, more like a blockbuster, detonating the entire Orumi Federation.
The news video is directed at the Orumi Federal Management Committee, and many of the Orumi Federation have not even heard of such a group organization. Suddenly, the rebels of the Hammer Resistance Group gained momentum. Within the federal military and police, various conspiracy theories are rampant.
The federal military and police in other cities even began to desert, refusing to execute orders and opposing to open fire on their compatriots. Changes in the situation in Redman City, and public statements made by Mayor Abbott. Has had an extremely significant follow-up impact. It is equivalent to indirectly promoting the momentum of the Orumi Federation Rebel Army.
In addition to the planned armed uprisings in 10 large and medium-sized cities, even some small and medium-sized cities began to be affected by the uprising. The people of the Orumi Federation spontaneously organized themselves into rebels and guerrillas. They began attacking police stations and local authorities, burning federal flags, and looting. The trouble is everywhere.
The secret agency finally realized that if this matter is left unattended, it may no longer work. The most obvious manifestation is that the Orumi Federal Army urgently dispatched a number of troops to garrison all over the Federation. These regular armed forces will assist local forces in fighting riots.
