Chapter 462 Turmoil
"Sister Cindy." Betty's expression was obviously solemn.
"What's wrong?" Sindialai asked puzzledly.
"Something's not right recently." Betty frowned and spoke in a serious tone.
"What's wrong? I think everything is fine and nothing happened." Sindialai looked at her in confusion.
"What's wrong is that nothing happened. In the past, meetings were always noisy and even the smallest issue would take a long time to discuss. Now everyone is very easy to talk to and it's obvious that a lot of interests have been given up in many things." Betty explained anxiously.
"Isn't this a good thing?" Sindialai still didn't realize the problem.
"Of course not. If they do this, it means they have either reached an agreement privately or they have bigger ambitions. Either way, we don't want it to happen." Betty's face became heavier, and a hint of worry flashed in her eyes.
"Then let's investigate it." Sindialai still looked nonchalant.
"We've already investigated it, but the fact that nothing was found makes it seem even stranger. So, you have to be extra careful during this period of time, sister." Betty warned seriously.
"Ah? You want me to be careful?" Sindyalai was very surprised. She thought: With my strength, even if someone wants to plot against me, it may not be easy. In comparison, the people who should be more worried should be Betty and Fritz.
Betty continued to explain, "Sister, you should know that Yun rarely stays here, and Aaron is in trouble now. If you fall down too, then we will be in big trouble. Even if Fritz and I are in trouble, it won't have much impact on the overall situation."
Cindy nodded thoughtfully, agreeing with Betty's point of view. Then, she smiled and responded, "Okay, in that case, I'll pay attention." Although she agreed readily on the surface, she actually didn't take it too seriously. After all, with her strength and status, she didn't think she would be easily threatened.
Betty's prediction soon became a reality. The first place to have problems was the southern part of the continent. Due to the damage caused by the earthquake and the sudden attack by the Naga, who had been silent for a long time, many problems arose in the southern part of the continent. For a time, countless people began to flee their homes to seek refuge, and the United Stronghold, which had sufficient food and resources, naturally became their first choice. A large number of refugees gathered together, but despite sufficient supplies, the stronghold could not meet the needs of such a large population. There was a lot of conspiracy in this. Although Betty dispatched a guard team and transported supplies to support them as soon as possible, unfortunately, a riot broke out on the road, directly breaking through the defense line of the stronghold, and looted all the supplies and fled the scene. Fortunately, the casualties were not serious.
Cynthia was very confused as she watched everything happening before her eyes: "What on earth is going on?" She couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
At this time, the failure of the Stonemasons' Union in Stormwind to collect wages triggered a violent conflict. Although this conflict did not directly affect the nearby strongholds, it attracted more people from the lower classes to join in, and the situation continued to escalate. Faced with this situation, Sintiyal had to urgently mobilize more manpower to deal with possible unexpected situations.
However, the trouble did not end there. The Frost Trolls of Northrend suddenly began to attack the stronghold, forcing Sintiara to send personnel to support again. At the same time, news came from all over the country that various dangers appeared one after another. The disadvantages of the joint stronghold also appeared at this moment - the stall was too big! The guards in various places could only complete simple escort tasks, and they seemed to be unable to cope with large-scale battles. When the joint stronghold was established, it was considered that in the event of a large-scale battle, reserve personnel could be mobilized and personnel could be drawn from various strongholds. But now it seems that this plan does not seem perfect.
However, there is a serious problem at present: it is impossible to effectively deal with too many problems encountered by the base. After all, the United Base mainly relies on high-end combat forces headed by Yun to provide support, but it is still essentially an organization dominated by commercial purposes. Now that Yun is gone and Aaron is injured, the strength of the United Base has been seriously weakened. In addition, the United Base has recently mobilized a large number of manpower to investigate the previous base attack, and some strong men have been sent to monitor Thor, which has further aggravated the problem of personnel shortage. As a result, the United Base seems to be unable to cope with many problems and cannot effectively solve every problem. This undoubtedly brings huge challenges and pressure to the United Base.
Betty discovered that many people in the joint base guard team had recently asked for leave for various reasons. At first, Betty didn't care much, thinking that with so many people in the guard team, it wouldn't make much difference if a few were missing. But as time went on, the number of people asking for leave increased. In some important bases, more than one-third of the people asked for leave. Betty began to suspect that it was definitely not normal for so many people to ask for leave at the same time. Betty realized that these things were not accidental, but a conspiracy carefully planned by someone. Now that problems have collectively appeared in various places, the problem of personnel has suddenly become prominent. Betty knew that someone was behind it.
But what can we do now? Now that they have made a move, we must have a countermeasure. Fritz said angrily: "What should we do now? Should we go find those big families?"
Betty frowned and said, "No, they must be behind this. If we go to them now, they will definitely not help us. Maybe they just want to take this opportunity to weaken our strength so that they can reap the benefits."
After listening to the two people's words, Xin Diyalai's face turned cold. After thinking for a moment, he said: "Just solve the problem."
“We can’t do anything rash. The balance that Yun has worked so hard to establish will be hard to restore once it’s broken.” Fritz was a little anxious.
"Very hard? How hard is it? At worst, we can use force this time to optimize the disharmonious things." Sindialai now believes that what Yun hopes for is a stable rear. As for the reserve force mentioned by Betty, Sindialai sneers. Only their own talents can be trained. Those who participate actively or passively will be eliminated at the first stage. Therefore, Sindialai doesn't care about their life or death.
"No, don't do anything rash." Fritz was also very scared. Once Sindiale thought this was a riot, there would be a lot of casualties under her attack.
"You guys are really interesting. Even when you're being bullied right in front of you, it's really not easy for you to still think about the problem so calmly." A sarcastic voice came in.
