Chapter 578: Who's in charge?
"Everything you're saying is tactically sound," he acknowledged. "Under normal circumstances, the commander should maintain a position where he can oversee the entire operation without being directly engaged in combat at any single location. And yes, my emotional connection to Sara creates potential judgment issues that could affect decision-making." General Carl Gerald immediately said, his voice was laced with a mix of determination and dedication at the moment.He paused, his expression hardening."But these aren't normal circumstances," General Carl Gerald continued. "The Architect has made this personal by targeting my sister specifically. She's turned Sara into both a hostage and a weapon, using her as bait to manipulate my tactical decisions and as a psychological warfare tool to break my ability to lead effectively. And I'm done letting that manipulation control my choices."His voice rose with intensity, carrying conviction that silenced the objections."Sara is at that hos
Chapter 577: Afternoon's preparation:
Commander Sarah Williams, who had been assigned to defend the satellite office, studied the hospital schematic with professional interest. "General Carl Gerald, with that many potential breach points, you'd need a significant force just to maintain perimeter security. And that's before considering internal defenses around the specific target…your sister's location.""Correct," General Carl Gerald confirmed. "Which brings us to the fundamental problem we're facing. We have eighty-seven officers available for deployment.”“The Architect is bringing sixty-plus operatives divided between four targets. If we distribute our forces evenly, we'd have approximately twenty-two officers per facility, which would leave us outnumbered at the detention center where she's committing thirty attackers, and potentially over-committed at headquarters where she's only sending fifteen."He paused, making eye contact with various officers throughout the crowd."But we're not going to distribute our force
Chapter 576: The Fourth Target.
“Almost done, General Carl Gerald.” Phineas immediately replied.The operations center had barely begun to empty when General Carl Gerald's recall order went out through every communication channel available to the Elite Division. Officers who had just received their tactical assignments and were heading toward the exits to begin their preparation routines suddenly found their phones buzzing with urgent priority messages summoning them back to the briefing area. The confusion was immediate and palpable…faces that had been set with grim determination just minutes ago now showed uncertainty and concern as people tried to understand what had changed in the brief interval since the initial briefing had concluded."All personnel, return to the main briefing area immediately," General Carl Gerald's voice came through the public address system, cutting through the murmur of confused conversations."This is not a drill. We have critical intelligence updates that require immediate tactical r
Chapter 575: Almost there, Game on!!!
At this junction, there was a pause on the other end of the line. When Anderson spoke again, his voice carried shock and disbelief. "An attack? In a hospital? General, that's... that's insane. We have sick and injured patients here. Attacking a medical facility would be…”"Would be exactly what The Architect is willing to do," General Carl Gerald interrupted. "She's already poisoned my sister twice, implanted a device in her spine, and used her as bait in psychological warfare. She has no moral limits when it comes to achieving her objectives. So yes, she's willing to attack a hospital. And we need to be ready.""What do you need from me?" Anderson asked, his professional training overriding his shock."Prepare to evacuate non-critical patients if necessary," General Carl Gerald ordered. "Identify secure locations within the facility where critical patients like Sara can be moved and defended. Review your staff to identify anyone with security or military training who could assist i
Chapter 574: Not on my watch!!!
Captain Luke nodded with confidence. "Damn right we won't. Cross isn't going anywhere except back to her cell or into a body bag if she's stupid enough to resist."The group discussed additional tactical details for several more minutes before General Carl Gerald noticed that Phineas was trying to get his attention from across the operations center. The young technical specialist was waving urgently, his expression suggesting he'd discovered something significant."Excuse me," General Carl Gerald said to his gathered staff, then made his way through the controlled chaos of the operations center toward Phineas's technical alcove."What is it?" General Carl Gerald asked as he reached Phineas."General Carl Gerald, I've been continuing to analyze the captured communication device, trying to extract additional intelligence beyond just The Architect's attack plans," Phineas explained, speaking quickly. "And I found something. Something big. There's a secondary communication thread that wa
Chapter 573: The Visitor's guide to the galaxies.
General Carl Gerald could see officers straightening with pride, seeing the impact of his words on morale and determination."The Architect thinks she can break us," General Carl Gerald continued. "She thinks that by attacking our facilities, killing our people, and destroying our infrastructure, she can eliminate the Elite Division as a functional organization. She's wrong. Because the Elite Division isn't buildings or databases or equipment. It's you. It's the people in this room and the hundreds of other officers across the city who have sworn the same oath and share the same commitment."His voice rose with intensity. "As long as we stand together, as long as we support each other and execute our missions with professionalism and courage, the Elite Division cannot be destroyed.”“The Architect can bomb our buildings, she can attack our facilities, she can kill some of us…but she cannot break our will to continue protecting the people who depend on us. And that's why, sixteen hours
