Just as Andalia ordered the execution of the two rebellious military police, the other hesitant military police began to surrender.
After learning from the previous example, the remaining officers in charge of the warehouse no longer hesitated. Even if they hesitated, the soldiers under them wouldn't let them hesitate. After all, they had been reselling firearms for a long time and were used to earning easy money. Who would want to die for no reason?!
Moreover, regardless of whether they were soldiers or officers, they knew that even if the rebel army didn't kill them, Colonel Keno wouldn't spare them. Instead of waiting for Keno to come back and deal with them, they might as well surrender now. Either way, it was just death. If the rebel army was lucky enough to win, they could still find a way out. Even if the rebel army failed, they could still take advantage of this period of time to enjoy themselves.
Therefore, after Andalia executed the corpses of the military police, the military police in the other warehouses had already surrendered one after another.
"Move everything that can be moved away! You guys, get me some cars! "Andalia said to the officers who had just defected to him.
"Yes! Yes! " The officers didn't dare to say anything else at this time. They brought their men back and quickly found a large number of trucks.
On the other side, Andaria sent his men to move the items from the warehouse. Be it food, clothing, supplies, or the weapons and equipment of the military and police, they were all taken away by him. In the end, Andaria poured a few barrels of gasoline on them and set the warehouse on fire!
Andalia then led his 20,000 men to escort the supplies back. He didn't return to the slums directly. Instead, he followed Lina's orders and transported all the supplies out of the city. Then, he hid them in a few farms in the suburbs. The rebel soldiers under him were also divided into several groups and stationed in these farms.
Lina didn't let Andalia bring the supplies back to the slums. The main reason was that Colonel Keno was currently besieging the slums with the military police. Once Andalia returned, he would definitely encounter Colonel Keno's men.
Although Andalia had more than 20,000 men, their equipment couldn't be compared to the military police. With just some light weapons, they weren't a match for the military police. If the military police snatched the supplies back, then Andalia's previous efforts would be in vain. Moreover, after losing the supplies, Lina and the rebel army would also lose the capital to continue fighting.
For an army that had to fight for a long time, weapons were secondary. Sufficient food and logistical supplies were the most important. The sheriff from before was a good example. Due to the lack of food, the powerful clone army was dragged out by him until they were exhausted. In the end, they were wiped out by Colonel Keno's military and police.
If the clone soldiers had eaten their fill and had enough rest, they might have really conquered the D5 industrial zone. Although the sheriff's chances of winning in the end were still not high, at least he wouldn't have been defeated so quickly.
At that time, the sheriff's failure was actually doomed from the beginning. His rebellion had no foundation at all. The rich were only consul, and the poor were indifferent to him. In such a situation, the sheriff launched a rebellion. He only had more than ten thousand clones in his hands. There was no foundation at all. It was like a castle in the air, and it was impossible for it to exist for long.
This time, when Lina started the rebellion, she learned from the sheriff's failed rebellion under Jiang Fei's guidance. She built her own foundation among the poor in the slums and developed armed forces and reserve forces.
Although these armed poor people lacked military training, in terms of combat power, they might not even be as strong as the sheriff's 10,000 clones. However, if Lina's 100,000 clones were killed, she could continue to recruit from the poor in the slums. She could replenish the number of clones under the sheriff's command.
Moreover, because Lina had been taught by Jiang Fei in guerrilla warfare, she did not choose to fight head-on with Colonel Keno's military police. The rebels relied on the buildings in the slums to defend themselves. Although there were some casualties, it was effective in stopping the military police's advance.
Just when the military police had advanced about one-third of the way, the variable that Lina mentioned appeared.
"Colonel, bad news! Something happened to the logistics warehouse! "A military policeman ran in front of Keno in a panic.
"What happened?" Colonel Keno frowned.
"All the supply warehouses are on fire!" The military police said.
"What?!" Keno immediately panicked. More than 80% of his supplies were stored in these warehouses. If these supplies were destroyed, they would only have 20% of food and supplies left. If they wanted to survive until the next harvest, they would have to eat grass roots and tree bark!
"Stop attacking! Hurry up and go back to put out the fire! " Keno immediately ordered. Although the fire was already burning, they had to save as much as they could. Every extra mouthful of food they saved was one more mouthful of food for them to eat!
The military police who were attacking at the front also panicked when they heard that the backyard was on fire. They could rest on other things, but they could not live without food!
Therefore, the military police who were originally charging forward suddenly stopped attacking. They turned around and quickly retreated from the slums.
"Want to leave? Do you think it's that easy? Chase after them and give them a good beating! "Lina immediately ordered.
"Yes!" Dollos nodded. Then, he led his subordinates of the Rebel Army and charged out.
At this time, the military police were in a hurry to go back and save the food. They were not in the mood to continue fighting. They fought and retreated. Sometimes, they even retreated without caring about anything else. The Rebel Army shot at them randomly, leaving behind hundreds of corpses.
When Colonel Keno led his people back to the warehouse area, the fire had already reached the sky.
"Put out the fire! Hurry up and put out the fire! " Keno organized his subordinates to put out the fire. However, the fire was too big, and it was impossible to put it out.
Finally, after two days and two nights of hard work, the fire was finally put out. The military police rescued a small amount of supplies that were either burnt or soaked in water. However, there was almost no food.
"Damn it! What happened? Where's the food? Is it all destroyed? " Colonel Keno frowned. If the food was destroyed, then his life would not be good.
"Colonel, I heard that before the fire started, a convoy left this place. The food and most of the supplies should have been moved away!" An officer reported.
"Oh?! Who did it?! " Colonel Keno's eyebrows were raised. Since the supplies and food were moved away by these people, then the fire must have been set by them!
