Red Dead Redemption: Western Consortium

Hearing this, Arthur was obviously confused.

He knew that David was right. A few thousand dollars seemed like a lot, but in fact it was nothing to the Van der Linde gang.

Before robbing Blackwater Town, Arthur had more than a thousand knives in his hand.

This is because Arthur spends money lavishly.

The Callander brothers were already notorious robbers before joining the Van der Linde gang.

The Callander brothers clearly had more money.

"Think about it, that's Detective Pinkerton. How can the gang they are targeting have a good life? What's more, we have to offend a tycoon now. If they join forces..."

David didn't continue, and now Arthur should understand what he meant.

He saw the worried look on Arthur's face, and that was enough.

No one can ignore Detective Pinkerton's threats.

Especially the Western Outlaws.

These are the reputations that Detective Pinkerton built with blood.

In 1850, Aaron Pinkerton, a Scotsman who was famous for his role in uncovering an assassination plan against Lincoln while he was still running for office, established a security company together with Edward Laken, another lawyer from Chicago.

This private security company was the predecessor of Pinkerton Detective Agency.

During the Civil War, the work of President Lincoln's personal bodyguard was also entrusted to the agents of the Pinkerton Detective Agency. Pinkerton himself even cracked down on a famous female spy of the Confederate Army.

Incidentally, after the Civil War, the person in charge of security on the night Lincoln was assassinated was not an agent of the detective agency, but the U.S. Army.

In 1871, Congress budgeted $ for the newly established Department of Justice as a budget for an auxiliary department to organize "the search and prosecution of criminals who have violated federal laws."

However, such a budget was obviously insufficient to do this in a vast country, so the Department of Justice outsourced the work to the Pinkerton Detective Agency.

This was the beginning of Pinkerton's glory.

Countless Western cowboys were arrested in Pinkerton's pursuit, and famous gangs also fell apart because of Pinkerton.

In its glory days, Pinkerton detectives outnumbered the Army.

In the minds of many cowboys, Pinkerton is synonymous with the Union Army.

Of course, the uneducated Arthur didn't know that the Anti-Pinkerton Act had been introduced at this time. They lost their law enforcement rights and became in an embarrassing situation similar to bounty hunters.

"Maybe we can talk to Dutch and give up this opportunity to rob the train." Arthur said with some worry.

David didn't say any more, it was already pretty good at this point.

In fact, Arthur already had a thorn in his heart at this time.

That is when they robbed the ferry, Dutch brutally murdered a girl while escaping.

You must know that Dutch has always promoted in the gang that they are a gang with ideals, rather than killing innocent people and being lawless like those desperadoes.

Rob those who deserve to be robbed, and kill those who deserve to be killed.

This is the philosophy of the Van der Linde Gang.

Dutch's approach is contrary to the concept he has always preached.

Arthur wrote this incident in his diary, but he did not question Dutch, which would damage Dutch's authority in the gang.

David called his brother Mike and followed Arthur to the largest wooden house in the camp.

That's where Dutch, the leader of the gang, lives.

When he walked to the door, he heard Dutch's roar from inside.

"That's enough, Hosea, what happened in Blackwater Town was just an accident."

When he opened the door, he saw Dutch standing there facing Hosea with a flushed face.

Apparently because of the persuasion to rob the train.

Dutch became more confident when he saw the Callander brothers and Arthur.

"We need money now, a lot of money. This train robbery will get us out of this predicament. It's a big bearer bond. It will allow us to get back to our old lives."

"David, Mike, Arthur, you all support me, right? Hosea is so cowardly that he is even afraid of robbing a train."

"Haha, David, I remember you have robbed trains many times. Maybe you can talk to us about how we can make this plan smoother."

However, what Dutch didn't expect was that David did not answer, but shook his head and said: "Dutch, listen to me, Dutch, maybe we should consider Hosea's proposal and offend a tycoon. This is not A wise choice.”

Dutch's smile froze on his face. He couldn't believe that these were the words spoken by Brother Callander.

"Arthur, Arthur, my boy, do you think so too?"

Dutch didn't ask Mike. He knew very well that Mike always listened to David.

"Daqi, you are right. We need a lot of money now, but offending a tycoon will make our situation even worse, right?" Arthur hesitated for a moment and said.

If David's words made Dutch stiffen, then Arthur's words made Dutch stunned.

This is the child he has raised since childhood, and he is actually against him.

At this moment, Dutch felt that his dignity was greatly challenged.

He no longer cares about the consequences of robbing the train. This operation must be completed. Only in this way can he establish his authority as the leader.

"Bill, Javier, Lenny, Micah, do you think so too?"

Dutch's gloomy face was about to drip with water.

He did not ask Charles, because Charles had already said similar words when he followed Hosea over before that.

Micah stood up first: "Dutch, you know, I always listen to you."

"Although there was an accident in Blackwater Town, we all survived, right? And we did not fail. We have already robbed the money. As long as we wait for the news to pass, we can get it back from Blackwater Town. .”

"Arthur, David, we should believe in Dutch, he has a huge plan, and we will definitely succeed."

After Micah finished speaking, Bill and Javier also spoke: "Daqi, we listen to you."

The younger Lenny naturally agreed.

Dutch's face has improved a lot, at least he still has a lot of support in the gang.

Instead of blaming Arthur and David, he focused on Hosea.

From Dutch's perspective, all of this was caused by Hosea.

Arthur, the Callander brothers, and Charles were all persuaded by Hosea to oppose him.

You must know that the Callander brothers were very supportive before.

Faced with Dutch's forcing gaze, Hosea had no choice but to continue, otherwise Dutch would lose the prestige of the leader.

I sighed in my heart and wanted to give in.

However, how could David let go of this good opportunity.
