Macho Wars

Chapter 30

As soon as Huck's voice fell, the school field with noisy human voices instantly became silent.

Hundreds of people's eyes converged on the old guy, staring at him with great pressure!

And Dragon looked around the audience calmly. As expected, when he heard the word "surrender", many people's expressions were obviously moved.

After all, fear of death is human nature, and most people in this world have fear of death.

Dragon knew very well that among the many soldiers present at this time, there were definitely not a few who wanted to surrender, and not only the broken soldiers, but even his own mobile company, there must be many shakers.

In the face of this kind of military ambition, replaced by ordinary officers, they either make a wish to lure and deceive, or use severe penalties to intimidate and threaten them.But these two common routines are not a good way to Dragoon.

After all, the fundamental reason why everyone wants to surrender is simply not wanting to die.I thought that by being a prisoner, I could save my life.

In this regard, Dragon just wanted to say... the pattern!

He asked the old Huck to take the initiative to mention surrender, just to directly highlight this taboo topic that most people are inconvenient to talk about. At least on the bright side and openly talk about him, he can also bring a wave of rhythm. If you let it go, wait. Someone connects them privately, that's really terrible!

Therefore, even if time is tight, it would be dangerous to stay in Suger Town for an extra minute, and Dragoon decided to deal with the problems of the human mind before going on the road.

After all, if the hearts of the people are scattered, this team will be difficult to lead!

So Dragon smiled and spoke to the soldiers below in a playful tone.

"I know, many of you are secretly thinking about surrendering for a new life. Don't be ashamed! Actually, I thought about that too. Lao Tzu's is even more than 80 people, go and talk to Weilan. It’s tens of thousands of soldiers who have anal front, so I won’t do such a stupid thing."

Dragoon's words caused a burst of laughter, and some people even thought he wanted to surrender.However, at this moment, Dragon suddenly changed the conversation and asked with a sneer.

"But... do you think you can really survive if you surrender?"

"..." xN

Like a thunderbolt on the blue sky, Dragoon's words awakened many soldiers who were shaken in their hearts.

Everyone was frightened by the decayed offensive of the Kingdom Army before, and they had completely lost their fighting spirit. Naturally, they just wanted to give up resistance and completely forgot what happened after the surrender.

Although there is a customary ransom system among the countries of the mainland, it is possible to exchange ransoms or equivalent value of captives to the enemy in exchange for their own captured persons after the war.

However, this system only took care of the nobles and did not benefit ordinary civilian soldiers.Therefore, many of the captured civilian soldiers can only ask for their blessings!

Dragoon had witnessed a situation like this one with his own eyes, which made him quite empathetic.

"Tell everyone about the past! Three years ago, when I was a second lieutenant, a small-scale local conflict broke out between our Empire and Wieland. The Southeast Military Region fought a beautiful battle and captured more than 2,000 people. These prisoners of war The aristocratic officers in China were all redeemed by the opponent within half a month, but the remaining ordinary soldiers were sent directly to the mine prison in the west as coolies. Because the prison was worried that the coolies from these enemy countries were not honest, so Ask our local garrison for help and act as a temporary prison guard. I was fortunate enough to witness with my own eyes how only half of these two thousand people remained in less than three months.

Recalling the cruel past that he didn't want to mention, Dragon tried his best to calmly tell everyone the end of a group of enemy prisoners.

When these prisoners were sent to the mine prison, it was already winter, but the mine only provided them with very thin prison clothes and simple and crowded accommodation.

The prisoners could only eat morning and evening meals every day, but they had to work intensively under the mine for 15 hours.

Therefore, in less than a month, about 300 prisoners died of starvation and overwork.

Seeing the tragic situation of these prisoners, Dragoon took the initiative to find the warden, and tactfully made suggestions to the other party, hoping to slightly improve the living conditions of these prisoners, so as not to die too much and affect the production progress of the mine.As a result, the warden lined Dragon's shoulders and said to him with a smile.

"The fate of those captives has been doomed from the moment they surrendered. We are just making good use of their surplus value. Why should you, Second Lieutenant, be sympathetic to some consumables!"

Whenever I think back to this experience, Dragon can't help feeling a little disgusted by himself who chose to compromise at the time. He became an accomplice of the abuser.

In the end, less than one-third of those captives survived until the beginning of the second year, but there is still no hope for them.

In order to let these soldiers understand how terrible things would be after becoming a prisoner, Dragon described in detail the horror he saw at the time.

Lack of food and clothing, endless work, malicious tricks and beatings from prison guards, and a deadly winter.

The first thing the guards of the mine prison do after waking up the captured miners every morning when it is dark, is to check everyone's hands and feet for frostbite.Once the patients are found, these people will be immediately dragged out and buried alive.

The Sidney Empire treated the captives this way, and the Wilant Kingdom is said to have treated the captives even better than this for revenge!

"When that happens, you will find that it is such a blessing to die happily by a bullet on the battlefield."

After listening to the cruel scene described by Dragon, the hundreds of big soldiers present looked at each other, and the atmosphere was suppressed to the extreme for a while.Some people even squatted on the ground and shivered.

Dragon saw that it was almost scared, knowing it was time to guide them to see hope in themselves.

"Brothers! I know you don't want to die, and I don't want to! But I don't want to be a prisoner and experience the day when life is worse than death! So now there is only one way out before us, and that is guerrilla!"

Hearing Dragoon said he was going to fight guerrillas, the soldiers below whispered again.Seeing that he had successfully aroused everyone's interest, Dragun told them the tactical ideas he had brought from another world.

Chapter 31

On the third day of the invasion by the Royal Army, the military command in Port Pandora, the capital of the colony, finally got in touch with the mainland and fully understood the situation.

But at this time the enemy's vanguard force had advanced to a place less than ten kilometers away from the outskirts of Pandora.

As long as the headquarter opened the window, the rumble of cannons from afar could be heard clearly.

In the underground command post of the headquarters, a group of big men with stars on their shoulders are sitting around the conference room, smoking cigarettes frowningly, and the atmosphere is extremely solemn.

For a long time, the colonial military districts of the empire regarded the Virant colonial army as their number one threat on the New World side.The General Staff Headquarters is racking its brains to do offensive and defensive exercises and formulate corresponding plans almost every day.

However, what makes these high-ranking military talents feel slapped is that the Royal Army did not attack in any way they had previously envisioned, and the phased defense strategy they formulated was also useless, and even ruthless. The 90th Division was handed out.

The 90th Division raised by the stepmother was severely lacking and had a low level of equipment, and was deliberately broken up to serve as a security force in several large areas deployed on the periphery.

The original intent of this arrangement of the staff was to allow the 90th Division, which had a poor combat effectiveness, to act as a sentry on the periphery.The enemy is responsible for early warning, and it can be delayed for a while.Buy some precious preparation time for the two main divisions of 88 and 89.

However, the enemy paralyzed the entire communication network of the colonial military area, and then came out again, directly using an overwhelming force advantage.In just three hours, the 90th division was evened, and then the 89th division was caught off guard.

The menacing kingdom army marched all the way, defeating the imperial army steadily, and it took only three days to lose nine of the ten regions.

At the beginning, the generals of the colonial military district were shocked and angry at the shameless undeclared war by the Royal Army.However, after they got in touch with the mainland, they discovered that the Virantes had actually gone through the formal procedures, only playing tricks.

Similar to a country on the other side of the earth that claimed to be the "place of the rising sun," Wieland also tried to send a friendly signal to the empire before launching the war, and sent a large-scale envoy to visit the Sidney Empire.

As a result, when the delegation arrived in the capital of Ambra, the first thing the ambassador did when he saw the emperor was to hand over an official declaration of war to Sidney XIV.

King Wirante decided to launch a deportation operation to drive all the Sidneys out of the New World on the grounds that the Imperial Army had repeatedly invaded the kingdom's colonies in the New World.

It is said that after receiving the declaration of war, King Sidney XIV at the time sneered and asked Ambassador Wirant when his country was going to launch the so-called expulsion operation.

The ambassador lowered his head and glanced at his watch, silently raised a hand, the emperor asked inexplicably.

"Five days later?"

The ambassador did not speak, but put down his thumb, and then put down the other fingers in turn. The emperor suddenly realized something, his face instantly turned ugly.

"It's now."
