Hermansky's mood is understandable, but he has no idea how chaotic the army is at this moment. Most of the people stationed in Setouchi are wounded soldiers who were evacuated in advance after last night's bloody battle. These people have no fighting ability in the first place. , and the sudden shelling disrupted the organization, it was quite good to be able to temporarily organize two companies.
The strength of these two companies was actually put together by squads and platoons belonging to different subordinates. Two of the company commanders could not fully recognize the squad and platoon commanders under them.
What combat effectiveness can such a temporarily organized counterattack force have? In fact, what people are fighting for at this moment is just the fighting instinct of this nation.
The charging Russian army was wiped out by a hail of bullets before they even got close to the artillery position. A full regiment of fifty field artillery was stationed there, and the Russian army below was wiped out with a single salvo. Half done.
"Brothers, come at me! This group of smashers dares to attack our position with such a small number of people. Do you really think that we are weak chickens from the Qing Dynasty? Come at me and let them learn a lesson! Fix your bayonets."
As soon as the officer gave the order, a whole battalion of soldiers rushed forward with bayonets in hand, facing the enemy like a huge wave. With just one shot, the Russian troops who counterattacked were swallowed up without leaving any residue.
Stefanski was also observing the situation on the battlefield, and he felt heartbroken when he saw waves of armies falling into the nightmare of refueling tactics and unable to extricate themselves.
"Hurry up! Vinya, what are you doing? Hurry up and withdraw! If you give up the gold, you will lose all the gold. I beg you, there is no more time."
"Master Aikeson! You can't have an accident. If you have an accident, we will all be buried together!"
Of course, Venya and Exon couldn't hear the commander-in-chief's plea. They were now in chaos and unable to extricate themselves.
There were panicked soldiers everywhere on Tangwan Mountain. There was a long queue at the entrance of the treasury. Officers were holding pistols to maintain order. "Quick, quick, quick. No one has thirty seconds to get in or out. You can't stay even for a moment if you follow the flow of people!"
"Damn bastard! How did you get two pieces of gold? That's a full 20 kilograms. Are you carrying it to fight and wait to die? Climbing mountains will exhaust you to death. Just put one piece away."
"Speed, speed, speed! Speed up!"
There were noisy crowds everywhere. Those who didn't get the gold were anxious, while those who got the gold stuffed their bags into their backpacks while looking for their team's flag. The entire Tangwan Mountain was full of noisy crowds.
The faint sound of battle in the distance made people more anxious like a demonic sound urging death. Aikeson unbuttoned his military uniform and took a few deep breaths. The cool air temporarily suppressed the irritability in his heart.
He handed a cigarette to General Vinya beside him and sighed and said, "They are right. Judging from how obsessed these soldiers are with gold, if we had just ordered to give up gold, the army would definitely mutiny."
Wenya took the cigarette and took a deep breath. "I know, of course I know! Now it's a dilemma. If you don't want the gold army, you have to mutiny. If you want the gold, it will waste precious time. I can only say that the enemy's strategy is too vicious." No solution at all!"
At this point, Wennia suddenly dismissed the surrounding guards. He lowered his voice and said to Aikeson, "The situation is very bad now. You won't be able to hold on here for a while. The first batch of soldiers to get the gold only needs to gather enough soldiers." If the regiment’s strength is insufficient, just command them to leave quickly!”
"Don't say anything, don't ask anything! Leave here quickly, leave this damn island. Your identity is too sensitive. If you fall into Xiao Letian's hands or something unexpected happens, it will be very detrimental to the empire. "
"God! You want me to be a deserter?" Aixon's eyes immediately stood up.
Wennia didn't want to quarrel with him and just said calmly, "It's not a deserter. This is the wisest choice. If your identity is exposed and you are captured by Xiao Letian, how much do you think our empire will lose at the negotiation table?"
"Why should the empire lose? Can't I devote myself to the empire? I also have the courage to sacrifice."
"Forget it, don't say stupid and angry things. You clearly know that His Majesty cannot sacrifice you. Your identity involves the interests of many big families in the empire. His Majesty needs you, and the empire also needs you!" Wennia took a picture! Pat Aixon on the shoulder.
"Use the knowledge you have gained from many years of aristocratic education to analyze it! In fact, you know that what I said is right, but you are so influenced by face that you cannot do this! If you want to be a real politician, you must learn Don’t show off your courage! Pack up and leave quickly.”
Wennia didn't give Aikeson a chance to argue. He waved his hand and several officers and soldiers from the guard company who were loyal to Aikeson gathered around him. The leading officer smiled bitterly and said, "Master, don't make it difficult for us. We are a collective." It has been decided that you will never be allowed to stay in this dangerous place again! We will obey your other orders, but we will never carry out this order."
"Nicholas! Come here." In the roar, a man like an iron tower rushed in front of Aikeson and stood at attention with a salute. "Nicholas, the guard company commander, reports to the commander! I accepted the iron order from General Venia and escorted the commander to the ship. Please get going”
The deal is done, and no one will listen to Aikeson if he wants to refute it. For the sake of Aikeson's safety, the entire army has collectively agreed to deprive Aikeson of his command authority.
Aikeson sighed, "Nicholas? I have an impression of you. Aren't you from the Army? Since when did you bring soldiers with the Navy?"
"Report sir! I am the commander of the guard company who was temporarily promoted by General Vinya early this morning. My soldiers are also recruited from the sailors. But I think they are all soldiers of the empire and warriors of the Tsar. There is no need to distinguish between the army and the navy. ! As long as we can fight."
Aikeson smiled bitterly and said, "You're right, I'm paranoid! Well, where is the first group to assemble? When can we set off?"
On the way Nicholas led Aikeson away from the fortress, Aikeson was suddenly surprised to find that the entire guard company only carried weapons and ammunition, without any other burdens, let alone gold.
"Nicholas, why didn't you bring any gold? The other troops went to the Financial Control Center to collect gold ingots."
"Huh? Sir, do you mean that the military order requires that all of us must carry gold? Why haven't I heard of such a forced military order? If we violate the military order, I apologize to you and I will let the brothers return."
"No, no, no! You did a good job. If you didn't bring gold, then you didn't bring it! I just want to know what you think."
