Red Dead Redemption: Western Consortium

Blackwater.

Milton and Ross were watching the captured criminal Sean being taken out of prison.

"Mr. Milton, I don't understand. This is a perfect time. Those criminals will definitely come to rescue their companions."

"If we set up an ambush at this time, we will definitely be able to deal a big enough blow to them."

"Why should we let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?"

There was some reluctance on Ross's face. In his opinion, this time Sean was transferred to the federal prison, the criminals from the Van der Linde Gang would definitely take action on the way.

If you're transferred to a federal prison, it's not that simple.

So as long as an ambush is set up, even if they can't catch them all, they can still cause enough casualties to the Van der Linde gang.

But his boss, Mr. Milton, who was also his teacher, rejected the proposal.

"Ross, there are some things that we can't just see on the surface, but also think about the deeper reasons."

"Perhaps like you said, we can indeed take advantage of this opportunity to inflict heavy damage on the Van der Linde Gang in one fell swoop, but what happens next?"

"The Van der Linde Gang is not a big deal to us and Pinkerton. During this special time, we must keep a low profile as much as possible."

"Ross, think about it carefully. Even with the help of tycoons like Cornwall, our law enforcement rights in New Hanover have not been restored yet. Do you know what this means?"

"This means that too many people are now unhappy with our Pinkerton Detective Agency, which makes our situation even more dangerous."

"We are no longer the law enforcement agents we used to be. Even these bounty hunters can give us no face at all."

"So, what does it mean to us to get rid of the Van der Linde gang? It's just a headline in the newspaper."

"And this will only make those who are wary of us even more wary."

"The living Van der Linde Gang is much more useful than the dead Van der Linde Gang."

"Would hunters still be respected if there were no beasts?"

Milton said slowly, his aged eyes showing the light of wisdom.

Struggle is a continuation of politics. As an old man in Pinkerton, Milton has personally experienced Pinkerton's glory to its current loneliness. He can see more things clearly than Ross.

Fighting criminals is not the foundation of Pinkerton's existence. Getting back law enforcement power is what they want.

The more noise the Van der Linde gang makes, the more beneficial it will be for them.

Ross said apologetically: "Mr. Milton, I thought about things too simply. I thought that fighting criminals was enough."

Milton looked at Rose and sighed: "I used to have the same idea as you, Rose, but many things will not go according to our ideas."

"David of Valentine is right. Pinkerton is essentially serving the wealthy rather than fighting criminals."

"I know your ambitions, Rose, just as I once did, but this won't fulfill them in Pinkerton."

"The federal government is now preparing to establish new law enforcement agencies to deal with the current troubles in the West, but this may take a long time."

"At the top of the federation, this involves ideological disputes between parties. Perhaps this is possible only if the Donkey Party comes to power."

"Those stubborn elephants, they always think that the present should be maintained without change."

"If that day comes, Rose, just leave Pinkerton. With your qualifications and abilities, you will definitely get the opportunity to use them."

At the top of the federation, there is a struggle between two parties.

There is the Donkey Party, which belongs to the Progressive Party, and the Elephant Party, which belongs to the Conservative Party.

In terms of the purpose of governing, the Donkey Party of the Progressive Party is much more radical. On the issue of the western region, the Donkey Party advocates the establishment of a new judicial institution to comprehensively combat crime in the west.

As for parties, I will oppose whatever you support, and the Conservative party will remain unchanged.

However, from now until the future 1913, the Elephant Party has always been in power.

Historically, the FBI was established in 1935, but in this parallel world, perhaps because there are many gangs in the West, it is obvious that the FBI was established earlier.

Most of the agents in the Bureau were former Pinkerton detective employees, and the first director of the Western Bureau was Edgar Ross.

This is also a timeline story in the previous game that involves a later plot.

Of course, Rose now would not have thought that he would become a big shot in the Bureau of Investigation in the future.

Milton liked his subordinate very much. In Ross, he saw his former self.

The relationship between the two is not just a simple superior and subordinate, but more like a teacher and a student.

Milton would mentor Rose on many things.

While the two were chatting, Sean was also taken to the bounty hunter's boat.

At this time, on the cliff not far away.

Arthur, Charles, Lenny, and Mike are watching all this with telescopes.
