9 betrayed
Late at night on September 12, 1905.
Han Huaiyi and Ford, the two bigwigs, sat side by side on the steps in front of the residence in District 51, Nevada.
Underneath the cigarette box at his hand was the message James sent from the White House and his call back from the message.
"Silence means acquiescence."
Han Huaiyi sighed long and said, "Henry, I have been waiting for an opportunity. I did not hesitate to give up the reputation I had prepared for Jason to James, and also gave Morgan a plan to oil dollars in advance. Finally, in a very fast time, I received this opportunity to visually show the power of the air strike to the highest level."
Then he said, "It's so worth it!"
"Thomas probably didn't expect that you never regarded him as an opponent. And it was right for you to let Morgan lead that plan."
"Yes, don't always occupy good things by yourself. Just hold on to ptr and take down the military purchase."
"The Pinktons will attack soon, so what about San Francisco?" Ford asked Matthews, who had been under surveillance for a long time.
Han Huaiyi said confidently: "If you dare to move, destroy him."
San Francisco is the city with the most Chinese people, because of Han Huaiyi and they are combined with the upper power.
So once some outsiders come over there, Han Huaiyi can't escape from Han Huaiyi's eyes and ears.
What Han Huaiyi could not have imagined was that at this moment, Matthews met Johnson of the San Francisco Railroad Administration.
He walked out of the hotel where he stayed on the excuse of buying cigarettes.
Then he came to the car parked on the street and made a request to the person who was monitoring him.
After Johnson came over confused, Matthews asked him to control the two subordinates next door.
Then he told Jerrit's arrangements.
Then he said, "Please tell Mr. Charlie that the Pinktons are not all his enemies, and I am willing to satisfy his needs."
"What about?" Johnson guessed his intention and asked him calmly.
"I'm in my hands when allegations of Thomas Edison, his records of his contacts and personal police officers."
"Why did you do this?"
"For the real Pinkerton private police to survive."
"oh?"
"It's hard to decide this, but I can't do it." Matthews then handed a telegram to Johnson: "My friend just told me that the White House has passed James' support plan for PTR."
The telegram reads: Teddy supports Z's investigation of PTTR, T Valley is an aircraft research and development base, and although the third division cannot participate, the other party is prepared and withdraws.
After reading it, Johnson asked in confusion: "Who is Teddy? Who is Z? Who is the friend who sent the telegram to you?"
"Teddy is the president's nickname, z is James. And I and Robert's son, the head of the Navy of the Military Commission, are close friends."
Hearing this, Johnson asked a question cautiously: "Doesn't Jerritt have such channels as you?"
"He doesn't have the relationship with me, and Thomas Edison's contact with the military is also Robert, but because everyone understands, he has been a little distant recently. So my friend contacted me first."
"Can you be sure?" Johnson didn't believe it.
As a result, Matthews took out another telegram reply and told him: "Mr. Johnson, I saw a lot of things from this telegram. Charlie was not only bound to the military, but also received the support of the president. The Pinktons are in big trouble! So I want to apologize to him through you and hope that things will last until Jerrit."
"You, are you going to betray your brother?" Johnson was stunned.
Members of the Victor family could not imagine that such a thing would happen.
Matthews was very calm: "If we let this reckless leader Pinkerton be allowed to sink forever, Pinkerton will be in vain forever, so I communicated with Robert Jr.."
He took out the telegram and clearly recorded his communication with Robert.
Matthews asked the other party to notify Thomas to tell Jeret a one-sided message that the Third Division would no longer participate in the dispute between Pinkerton and New Rome, that's all.
In response, Matthews said: "This is my gift to Charlie. Mr. Johnson, I hope to see him as soon as possible."
The content of the telegram not only proves that the news came to him first, but also logically speaking, his subsequent words are also credible.
Because this telegram is equivalent to indulging Jeret to continue his action, but in this way he will fall into the trap of New Rome, and Thomas Edison will also suffer retribution.
And Johnson also completely understood the guy's intentions.
Matthews wanted to use New Rome's hands to clean up family power that he could not control.
What kind of thing is this to collude with outsiders to target the family, even bleeding thousands of miles away? Johnson immediately felt contempt for him, and he immediately asked him: "What about the dozens of people you led?"
"It's all under your surveillance, aren't it?"
"Yes, except for the two next door, the rest of the others are located in Happy Town northeast of San Francisco."
"Yes, they're waiting for my arrangement."
"What are you going to do?"
"Your people will arrest you, there will always be excuses, and I will bail them."
"That is, all of this is your decision."
"Yes, I can't convince these brainless people, and I can only use this last resort. Well, Mr. Johnson, I have said enough. I believe these contents will attract the attention of Mr. Charlie. Please inform him soon." Matthews urged.
Because he knew that the earlier he communicated with Charlie, the higher his value would be.
Although Johnson looked down on him, he could only do so. He immediately notified the people below to encircle the Pinktons, and at the same time, the telegram message T Valley informed Han Huaiyi about the news.
Matthews, who had completed this, immediately collapsed on the sofa.
He had enough of Jerrit and his business philosophy, and he had had enough of everything since the Pittsburgh crackdown.
But those members did not sell his accounts, and he had no chance in the past.
But now it's different.
He has paid off today by focusing on word of mouth and connections.
After the meeting, Robert chewed out the tacit understanding between James and Roosevelt, and after seeing the report of Lieutenant Seld of the Aviation Army, he clearly felt the power of the plane in the battle.
Robert is not a fool. He can sit in that position because he is proficient in military affairs and politics.
Although he didn't know what James showed the president in the end, he still believed that the Pinktons should have no chance of winning in this dispute.
So he explained to his son when he returned home.
So Matthews received this warning telegram.
But Matthews made a decision based on this telegram that surprised everyone.
Chapter completed!
